Before entering the main tomb chamber.
Jin An thought about countless scenes in the main tomb chamber.
But when he entered the main tomb chamber, Jin An was still surprised.
"Why is this place still collapsed?"
"It's over. The main tomb has been buried, so all the clues have been lost."
The old Taoist priest's surprised voice echoed in the dark tomb.
you do not say.
Just as the old Taoist said, the tomb in front of me has collapsed into ruins, and a large amount of rock has collapsed, destroying the entire main tomb.
The huge stones that fell down were each larger than a millstone, weighing thousands or tens of thousands of kilograms, blocking most of the main tomb chamber.
"No wonder the cast iron stele used to suppress the sarcophagus in the middle hall fell down and broke. Damn, such a loud noise was worse than the rolling dragon. It is estimated that the ground was shaking at that time. The cast iron stele in the middle hall closest to the main tomb chamber
, that’s how he was knocked to the ground.”
After the old Taoist priest finished speaking, another doubt arose in his mind.
He held a torch in his hand and looked at the main tomb chamber that had completely collapsed into ruins. He said in shock: "If the pig iron tablet fell by itself, then did the sarcophagus lid fall by itself in the chaos?"
"Or is there really something unclean inside, and it escaped from the sarcophagus?"
After the initial surprise.
Faced with the temporary loss of clues and all clues, everyone began to gather to discuss whether the main tomb collapsed due to geological reasons?
Or was it caused by a man-made explosion?
"Looking at the thick layer of dust on the fallen rocks in the ruins, the main tomb must have collapsed a long time ago. It was not bombed by our group of people who went down to the Yinyi River. It is very likely that it was the first batch of tomb robbers from the Yinshan Taoist group.
If it was really the main tomb that was blown up by Taoist Yinshan's group of tomb robbers, it's strange, why did they blow up the tomb?"
"They can't blow up the tomb for no reason."
"Are you running away from something? Or are you destroying this place on purpose, not wanting other outsiders to get any important clues?"
The captain held a torch and stood at the door of the main tomb. He did not cave in easily. He casually glanced at the ruins in front of him and expressed his own opinion.
Kuixing Kidou's eyes lit up: "Is it to cover up the clues about the cornucopia?"
The captain glanced at the sullen man who was kicking and fighting with Kuixing, who was a little obsessed with it: "It's only three things. This is the last time I'm going to remind you, so that you don't die in Tengguo accidentally because of being obsessed with others, being reckless, and killing people and money.
In the ancient tomb of the king, he in turn dragged everyone to death together."
"No one has ever seen the legendary thing like the Cornucopia. It is only occasionally mentioned in some unofficial histories or legends that are not recognized by orthodoxy. So I kindly advise you to start as soon as possible."
Dispel this unrealistic illusion."
"Even if there really is a gathering basin, even the leader of a country thousands of years ago, the leader of Shanzhou Kingdom, who combined the fate of a country, could not suppress an evil thing like the gathering basin that cannot be controlled by human beings. Instead, in the end
It will lead to a miserable end like a rat's belly. For people whose destiny is not strong enough for this kind of thing, or whose destiny is not stronger than the fate of a country, I advise you to give up this kind of unrealistic greed as soon as possible."
Kuixing kicked Dou and smiled: "There seems to be something in General Duwei's words. If in today's world, a country's fortune can be greater than that of the leader of Shanzhou Kingdom, then only the current saint king who unifies the world can be
Are you qualified to use a polygon?"
When General Duwei heard this, his eyes flashed coldly, and he glanced at the big man with an eyebrow raised by Kuixing.
He had a strong energy and locked Kuixing's kick on the spot.
Suddenly, the strong spirit of a martial arts practitioner and the long-established official aura of the imperial official suppressed Kuixing Kidou, who was just a commoner from the countryside, and did not dare to act rashly.
The captain who seems to have a gentle temper and elegant temperament on weekdays is because you have not touched his bottom line. If you make him angry, the captain who puts on a murderous uniform will have the killing power of a military general.
The breath makes people feel like they can't breathe when facing a majestic mountain.
It was only then that everyone became alert.
The captain general in front of them looked like he was chatting and laughing with Taoist Priest Jin'an, but he looked like he was harmless to humans and animals, which made them lower their guard. In fact, this man was a real killer in the army. He led troops to massacre all year round.
The bandits broke out of the stronghold to train their troops and killed the bandits in Wuzhou Prefecture, so that the bandits did not dare to be rampant.
"I will pretend that I didn't hear what you said today. If I hear someone dare to bully the superior again and criticize the benevolent heart of the current sage, don't blame me for being rude."
General Duwei, this is a warning.
He was also putting out the fire in time and saving the lives of everyone present.
After all, the crime of deceiving the emperor can range from beheading and banishing the nine clans to the most severe crime of killing the nine clans and beheading the whole family.
Kuixing Kidou looked into the captain's cold eyes, and he was frightened. He woke up from the greed of the Yin basin, and finally shut his mouth honestly this time, and never mentioned the word "Yin basin" again.
Jin An and the old Taoist priest both shook their heads.
The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant.
This guy.
Be sure to straighten your butt.
Some things are not destined to be yours, so don't be greedy.
A tree will die if its roots are removed.
But people can live if they move their buttocks. If it's not yours, don't worry about it blindly.
People have seven emotions and six desires, and it is normal for people to be greedy, but if you let desire control your heart and lose your rationality, regardless of whether you can eat it or not, you will try to swallow the elephant, just like this Kuixing kicking and fighting, and you will not see the coffin without shedding tears in the end.
Only after being humiliated in front of the captain general, did he wake up from his greed.
Fortunately, Kuixing Kidou woke up early.
The captain also left a trace of kindness.
Otherwise, it will not be a bad encounter, but a bruised and bloody head, and the head will fall to the ground.
Seeing that the atmosphere was dull and depressing for a while, the brother with the most problems among the two mourning brothers asked curiously: "Taoist Yinshan is a tomb robber? Does General Duwei know something?"
General Duwei did not immediately answer the mourner's question, but each glanced at the abbot of Bailong Temple who had his hands clasped together, his eyes looking at his nose, and his nose looking at his heart. He looked at Jin'an who was discussing the main tomb chamber with the old Taoist priest as usual.
One glance.
It was not until this moment that the murderous power of the imperial official in General Duwei was put away. The oppressive atmosphere in the tomb dissipated a little, and General Duwei returned to his normal expression. It seemed that he had really turned his head and forgotten what happened just now.
.
The captain said: "Do you still remember the case of the Dragon King coming ashore?"
"That night, I fought against the Dragon King in person. What came ashore that day was not a Dragon King at all, but a group of tomb robbers who had been dead for a long time. These tomb robbers were controlled by others after their death and became puppets controlled by others. They deliberately
The case of the Dragon King coming ashore was created in an attempt to disturb the people's hearts and confuse the ignorant people. Therefore, Mr. Fu Yin made up his mind to summon all the famous strangers in the world to assist Mr. Fu Yin and go down to the Yinyi River to put down the Dragon King case. "
"As for why I guessed that there were Yinshan Taoists among these tomb robbers, it was precisely because of the water monkey corpses that Kuixing had encountered in Thousand Corpses Cave before. These water monkeys are water monsters that only Yinshan Taoists can raise.
Used for digging graves and robbing graves.”
actually.
General Duwei has one more thing to say.
He deliberately glanced at the abbot of Bailong Temple and Jin An before speaking, because the abbot of Bailong Temple told him about the clues about water monkeys and tomb robbers under the Yinyi River.
"Old Dao, what are you doing?"
In the darkness, Jin An suddenly realized that something was wrong with the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist priest holding a torch in one hand secretly dug his other hand into the Tai Chi Bagua bag he had been carrying on his shoulder, quietly took out a handful of glutinous rice, and said nervously: "Little brother, follow me.
The soldiers in the tomb of Lieutenant Xia have been holding up their shields to block us from the front, right?"
Jin An nodded.
The old Taoist priest added: "Behind those soldiers is the captain alone, right?"
Jin An and the old Taoist priest have been working together for so long. How could they not have a tacit understanding? He asked the old Taoist priest if he had discovered anything, and if he had anything to say, he said it quickly. Don't worry, it's as smelly and long as the old lady's foot-binding cloth.
The old Taoist priest subconsciously took a few steps closer to Jin'an. The old Taoist priest murmured in his heart that he didn't know why, but he felt particularly safe and warm like a stove around his little brother. It felt more secure to be close to him... Then he said nervously:
"Little brother, you see, those soldiers are at the front, and the captain is in charge of commanding behind the soldiers. The number of people in our third row are you, the little brother, the old man, the sharp sword, the goddess, and the mourner.
Kuixing Kickfight, and the three monks from Bailong Temple, ten people in total, twenty feet, right..."
"But when the general was angry just now, I lowered my head and counted my feet out of boredom. How come there are eleven people on the ground with twenty-two soles, and there is an extra pair of feet?"
Jin An listened to the old Taoist priest's words.
Lower your head and count carefully.
One, two, three... eleven people, indeed there is an extra pair of legs among them!
Although the old Taoist priest didn't speak loudly, he didn't deliberately hide it. In the already quiet ancient tomb, any slightest movement would make a loud noise, so the old Taoist priest's words immediately aroused everyone's vigilance.
Just now, they were temporarily distracted by the conversation between General Duwei and Kuixing, and General Duwei's anger. They didn't even notice that there was an extra person around them.
call--
Strings of torches were shining fiercely towards each other, and everyone was looking for someone to look for. There was an extra person next to them.
Whoosh!
A black shadow flashed past at a very fast speed, disappeared from everyone's eyes, and ran into the crowd of cavalry guards.
Everyone who was about to take action did not want to accidentally injure the cavalry guards, so they were blocked and missed the opportunity, allowing the black figure to quickly run into the ruins.
On the contrary, it was General Duwei who reacted fastest.
He unloaded the powerful crossbow hung from the waist of the cavalry guards beside him. This kind of powerful crossbow is most suitable for killing people quickly in narrow terrain, and is more conducive to the terrain than bows and arrows.
Tuk! Tuk! Tuk!
The captain moved skillfully and fired three crossbow arrows in succession. The last crossbow arrow finally nailed the foot of the fast black shadow in the darkness.
His originally quick movements were halted.
At this time, everyone reacted and hurriedly shined the torches in their hands.
This is the result.
Hiss!
A few people looked condensed.
Where is the person? It is clearly the lower body of a dead person.
A person only has two legs below the waist and abdomen, and without the torso above the waist and abdomen, it looks like a person who has been cut in the waist and died tragically.
The blood has been drained.
But there wasn't much dirt and dust on the clothes on his body, and he looked like someone who had just been cut in half and died tragically.
The dead can't feel pain. The crossbow arrows shot into the soles of the feet can't really trap the lower body of the dead body. It just makes it move. He exerts a slight force on the soles of his feet, drops one of his cloth shoes, and nimbly gets into the main tomb chamber and collapses.
disappeared from the ruins.
"Chase!"
It is rare for a new clue to appear, so naturally everyone will not let this clue escape.
pity.
There were too many rubbles and rocks in the main tomb, and the captain fired several crossbow arrows, but failed to hit the dead man who was running around with only half of his body left.
"It seems to have gotten under the rocks around here."
When the crowd chased him to a corner of the ruins of the main tomb, they lost sight of the dead man with his lower body.
"Separately search for it to see where it has hidden!" the captain gave the order, and the cavalry guards began to disperse and search.
However!
Taoist skills! Exploring the bag to retrieve objects!
Under the surprised gazes of the captain and others, Jin An acted like a magician. He picked up the lost cloth shoe on the rubble of rubble and threw it on the ground.
"Change!"
"Change!"
"Change!"
A person actually transformed into the cloth shoe that had been torn by a crossbow arrow!
The dead man in the lower half of his body still wanted to struggle and escape, but the old Taoist priest who often followed Jin'an to eat pears, peaches and apples and sharpen his sword reacted in time.
The old Taoist priest took out a roll of corpse-tying rope from his Tai Chi Bagua bag, and with the strong force of sharpening the sword, he instantly tied up the lower body of the dead man with a big five-belly strap.
The tacitly coordinated process of the Wu Zang Taoist Temple trio was so skillful that it was dazzling. Before they could see the situation clearly, they had already tied up the lower body of the dead man.
Everyone was dizzy and dumbfounded.
"Brother, why do I have the misconception that these three people from Wu Zang Taoist Temple are professional tomb robbers, and we are the real amateurs..."
The black-robed brother, the mourner with the most problems, muttered quietly.
"How strange! How wonderful! How mysterious!"
General Duwei was amazed by Jin An's move: "Taoist Master Jin An, could this be the Taoist technique of Wu Zang Taoist Temple?"
"The world is so big, it's true that there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers. I wonder what the Taoist technique of the five internal organs temple is called? In addition to changing the dead, can Taoist Jin'an also change the living?"
The younger brother who was a mourner in black robe suddenly changed his expression after hearing what the captain said: "Making a living person? Isn't that just stealing someone!"
"?"
"!"
Jin An's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he looked at his younger brother among the mourners with a few black lines hanging down his forehead.
The captain also turned around and looked: "?"
The abbot of Bailong Temple also looked: "?"
Monk Kongming and Hongzhao also looked: "?"
Everyone collectively turned their heads and looked: "?"
The two mourning brothers became the focus of attention for a while, which frightened the mourning brother in white robe until his face turned pale. He quickly and wisely came to the rescue of his stupid brother: "How can that be called stealing? That's called stealing."
Hongxing, who is in love with me, comes out of the wall, and everyone pushes her down."
"..." The collective was speechless.
"This Taoist technique is called 'exploring the bag to retrieve objects' in my Five Zang Taoist Temple. My current Taoist skills are still shallow and I can't change a living person yet." Jin An explained to everyone with a face as dark as the bottom of a pot. He really doesn't know how to steal people at the moment.
, and there won’t be those messy red apricots coming out of the wall or anything like that. Don’t listen to the bloody mouthfuls of the mourners.
But after explaining, Jin An thought for a moment, and then added rigorously: "Perhaps I can really change my life in the future."
Captain: "..."
Everyone looked at Jin An defensively: "..."
It seems that from now on we need to prevent fire and theft to prevent Taoist priest Jin'an from stealing people!
This was just a short interlude. Then, everyone turned their attention to the lower body of the dead man who was tied up with the old Taoist priest's rope, which was as big as pork belly.
This bundle of corpse rope is no ordinary hemp rope.
It is a tough hemp rope that has been soaked in Sanyang wine, cinnabar, rooster blood, black dog blood... soaked repeatedly with the most yang things in the world. Every rope is soaked, and finally rubbed together.
The harder you pull, the harder you struggle, the tighter the binding becomes.
Several grown men kept talking.
Not to mention the dead people whose Yin Qi has been suppressed.
"Look carefully now, what do you think to me, old Taoist, why do the clothes on this dead man look so familiar?" At close range, the old Taoist priest shouted in surprise.
Jin An's eyes darkened: "No need to guess, this is the body of the ferryman from the underworld. He died in the ancient tomb."
