The Lost Traces of Guide Chapter 57 History is strikingly similar again
The ancients attached great importance to the fairy gate in the tomb. Generally speaking, after the tomb owner died and was buried in the tomb, his soul would go to heaven through the fairy gate. Therefore, the location of this fairy gate is particularly special. Most of the fairy gates will be painted on
The front and back of the coffin are convenient for the soul of the tomb owner to pass through.
There are also a very small number of immortal gates that are opened separately on the top of the main tomb chamber or above the tomb door. However, the unique shape of this immortal gate is really contrary to common sense. In Zhang Xiuxian's words, it is like a dog hole.
The passage behind the Immortal Gate is not long, and you can see the difference between this place and the one above. This place is completely like a temporary construction, and even the stone walls are not evenly cut. Compared with the mausoleum above, it is simply heaven and earth.
Feng Er used a lantern to open the way. This place can only be described as a passage. It can't even be regarded as a tomb passage. What a few people can't figure out is how this majestic imperial mausoleum of Guide City gets colder as it goes to the bottom.
Mixed?
Zhang Xiuxian asked: "So ancient people also did surface engineering? Did the construction of the mausoleum involve primitive mining?"
"Surface engineering? You can't imagine it? Do you think the social atmosphere has been like this since ancient times?" Feng Yu asked back.
"That's not true. What do you think it is? For example, our chief, the surface engineering is so amazing, he always looks impeccable, but in fact, only we know what is going on. If it weren't for the ancients,
How can the social atmosphere that has been passed down be carried forward as it is today? This is also a major feature."
What Zhang Xiuxian said was unambiguous at all, it seemed like that was the case.
Feng Er said: "This is not a superficial project. I speculate that other problems must have been encountered when this place was built."
"Senior, what's the problem?"
"The unbuildable problem."
Feng Yu followed closely behind, not quite understanding what his second uncle meant.
"Second uncle, why can't it be built?"
"When our Guanshan Taibao built imperial tombs in the Ming Dynasty, they would usually select a site in advance before starting construction. However, the process of selecting a site alone is very complicated and requires a lot of knowledge. Of course, everyone can make mistakes. Sometimes
During the process of building a tomb, you will encounter situations where you cannot continue to build it. Generally speaking, there are two reasons. One is that you have dug up something particularly unlucky. If you force the tomb to be built in this place, big problems will occur, ranging from corpse transformation to death.
At worst, no one will survive within a hundred miles, and a family will be devastated with no children or grandchildren."
Feng Er paused for a moment and then continued: "Er's words mean that it is impossible to build. There are many reasons for this, such as the geology is too good, or other tombs are already there, or something else is encountered. In short, there are
There are a lot of uncertainties, and that's what's going on here."
"Second uncle, are you saying that the underground geology is too hard? The masons can't cut through the stone here. Is that why it's like this?"
Zhang Xiuxian directly retorted: "It's just a stone, how can it be impossible to cut it? A city as big as that has been built outside, how can it still be short of such effort? It's a royal project, and there is no shortage of money."
"To put it this way, the reason why construction here cannot continue is another matter. Could it be that something happened? Second uncle, tell us what you saw."
Feng Er made a hissing gesture and said: "Speak lower, the reason why this place cannot be built is because something is blocking their construction, so they gave up here and opened the Immortal Gate hastily.
Under the tombstone, look at what's underground."
Feng Yu and Zhang Xiuxian moved their eyes over. There was a little bit of white powder in the corner of the ground. Feng Yu was familiar with this stuff. It was packed layer by layer inside the golden coffin. It was the shedding of snake skin.
Later I made snake powder, there are snakes in this place!
Zhang Xiuxian cursed in a low voice, "Holy crap, isn't this a real snake den down there? Did we deliver it to your door?"
Feng Er said: "Not necessarily, no matter where this place was originally, there must be an answer ahead."
After saying the cover letter, he stopped talking. In this uneven passage, his nervousness was much higher. The real reason why it could not be built here is still unknown. The owner of Guide's tomb also disappeared, which made him even more nervous.
What Feng Er was worried about was how they would get out of here.
The passage is a simple stone passage without any extra decoration. This passage is not long, about ten meters long. There is a door in front of the end. The door is made of iron and is stained with rust. This door is not closed.
Instead, it was open, as if welcoming a few people to enter, a bit like an empty city.
Feng Er stopped in front of the door, not daring to enter rashly. The door was open and it was very likely that Zhang Manyue had gone in, but Feng Er was cautious. He said to Zhang Xiuxian: "Xiuxian, how many flares are there? Fire one.
Go in and have a look."
Zhang Xiuxian rummaged around in the bag for a long time and said there were two rounds left, so he shot one in.
The intense bright light made my eyes hurt. Under the light, I could see the scene inside clearly.
This is a small tomb, with a pointed roof and four corners, and clear corners at the bottom. The tomb walls are all painted with entwining golden snakes. The paintings fill the entire tomb chamber, and they are very dense. There must be at least thousands of them.
There is a coffin in the middle, covered with red paint, and a golden snake is also painted on the coffin. Next to the coffin, there is a paper figure, which looks very similar to the paper general chasing a few people in Guide City. The paper figure
Looking down at the coffin, the situation was very strange.
After looking a little closer, there was a person standing not far from the door. It didn't take a few people to guess who she was.
This person was none other than the missing Zhang Manyue. After going down one corridor and one tomb passage, I finally found Zhang Manyue on the bottom floor. Counting it in detail, after entering the mausoleum, I went down three floors in succession.
The bottom of the layers is actually such a tomb.
From the Nodal Tomb City above to the glorious mausoleum, in Zhang Xiuxian's words, each place is inferior to the other. They even drilled a dog hole, and below is such a weird tomb.
Zhang Manyue remained motionless until the light of the flare burned out. The three people outside the door walked in. Zhang Xiuxian asked as he walked: "Zhang Manyue, I found you. How could you wait for us? This place is full of snakes."
, I almost couldn’t get off.”
Zhang Manyue ignored Zhang Xiuxian's words. She stood alone in the tomb chamber, staring at the paper figure beside the coffin.
Feng Yu asked: "Zhang Manyue, you should tell us what's going on down here."
Zhang Manyue looked away from the paper man and smiled at Feng Yu and Zhang Xiuxian. This smile made people feel very cold, even colder than when they saw the paper man.
Feng Er didn't speak for a long time. Instead, he held up the lantern and looked carefully into the tomb. There was a look of fear in his eyes, a frown on his face, and he shouted at a loss of words: "I have been to this place, I have been to this place...
.”
"Second uncle, what did you say? What happened?" Feng Yu asked back.
"It's exactly the same. I will never forget this place until I die."
Zhang Manyue said: "The old man has a good memory. You have indeed been to this place."
After listening to this, Feng Yu and Zhang Xiuxian were completely confused. They both came down from Guide City all the way. Why couldn't they understand a word that Zhang Manyue and Feng Er said? They were like
They looked at each other as if they had been deceived, like two fools.
