What will be there on the ninth floor? It gave Mustache this unprecedented feeling. When he encountered unknown situations in the past, he might have been nervous, but he would never be panicked. That was the behavior of people who were fearful.
At this time, Jinpu Awang had already walked forward several meters away. Following his footsteps, the headless corpses on both sides were squeezed down one by one. The mustache hesitated for a moment and suppressed the strange feeling in his heart.
We walked down and followed Jinpu Ngawang. This was a very frightening scene. The two people were walking among a group of corpses that had been dead for who knows how many years.
There may really be no traps in the upper floors of the nine-story tower. They walked relatively smoothly and followed the eight-story stone steps directly to the top. When the stone steps came to the end, a stone door that was wider than before appeared in front of them.
The stone door is carved with very exquisite but incomprehensible patterns. These patterns can be seen individually or mixed together. The carving has reached a certain level.
When he stood in front of this large stone door, the feeling that must have been suppressed in his heart was about to explode. It was as if he had seen a ghost. He felt that his legs were a little weak, as if a strong force was bending his knees.
.The stone door is tightly closed without any gaps, but the invisible aura is getting stronger.
The two people faced this large stone door and did not move rashly for the time being, because Jinpu Awang seemed to sense that something was wrong with Mustache. Mustache had been standing quietly, trying hard to distinguish where his uneasiness came from.
He stared at the complex and exquisite patterns on the stone door for a long time. What was strange was that Jinpu Ngawang in front of him didn't seem to have any anxiety.
"What's wrong with you?" Jinpu Awang looked at Mustache and felt that this should not be his emotion when facing an unknown area.
"Let me think about it..."
This feeling is hard to describe. After standing there for a few minutes, Mustache suddenly realized that when he faced the wide stone door and the last floor of the nine-story tower behind the door, he felt like a dirt climber who had been doing earthwork all his life.
Confronted with an unknown ancient tomb, he suddenly realized that Jinpu Awang was not a tomb robber and would not be affected by any intuition.
But Mustache is still confused. What kind of ancient tombs has he not seen? He has visited all the tombs of princes and princes in addition to the true imperial tombs. If his intuition is correct, then this nine-story pagoda is actually
Is it a place to bury people? This kind of tower burial is completely unique.
Who is buried in the nine-story pagoda? This phenomenon is actually very abnormal. In any religion, the status of gods is higher than anyone else. If a person is buried in a nine-story pagoda, the person being buried will be buried among the statues of gods enshrined on the previous floors.
superior.
"Are you okay?" Jinpu Awang looked a little panicked when he saw that Mustache was staring at Shimen without saying a word. He raised his hand and waved it in front of Mustache's eyes.
"It's okay." Mustache regained his composure and said, "Go in."
On the first eight floors, they had almost nothing to gain. If there must be something in the nine-story tower, it would definitely be on the top floor. Mustache and Jinpu Awang tried to push the stone door. The door looked very wide, but it was pushed open without much effort.
There was a gap, and the light of the flashlight shone in along the gap. There were a few dark things inside, and a somewhat familiar breath floated out. This breath is still indescribable, but the mustache seemed to have gone through many twists and turns.
I finally walked through the dangers to the main chamber of an ancient tomb, and this was the smell.
The ninth floor was very quiet. Jinpu Ngawang pushed the door open wide enough for a person to get in. He put his feet out and stepped on it. The ground inside was very solid. When Mustache followed Jinpu Ngawang in, he felt
It was confirmed that the living sacrifice was carried out on the eighth floor, and the items placed on the ninth floor were what they were supposed to be placed on.
There are two rows of stone lanterns on both sides. This kind of stone lantern is used entirely for lighting. On the other side of the stone lantern, from left to right, there are seven very thick logs laid flat in a row. This kind of log looks like
A piece of wood, but it had been treated, just like the two abandoned wooden coffins they saw on the fifth floor of the corridor.
"Tree burial?" Jinpu Awang turned around and asked.
Strictly speaking, tree burial involves digging out the core of a living tree and then stuffing the body into it. However, the logs in front of us are generally classified as tree burials. The logs are divided into two pieces.
The hollow in the heart is a very ancient coffin.
There is a relatively large space between the two rows of stone lanterns. It is estimated that the believers in the temple have not left yet and can come and worship during the sacrifice. Jinpu Awang took a look at the seven logs and said: "Have you seen this thing before?"
? How to open it?"
Mustache said nothing. He had seen too many such things. He slowly touched the front of one of the logs. The exact age of these logs was unknown, but they were at least thirty or forty centuries ago. If there were something buried inside
The corpse is probably rotted into slag. According to Mustache’s experience, this kind of log coffin should not be dangerous. It has been too long and even ordinary corpse poison cannot be contained. There are three hoops on the top and bottom of the log coffin, and they are also brushed.
There was a layer of something that might be gum, which had dried completely, and the alloy tube broke into pieces when poked.
"Things may be in the coffin." Mustache said to Jinpu Awang: "In our words, this is called burial."
If it weren't for the several thick layers of oil and gum brushed on the outside of the trunk, the wood would have been rotten and out of shape. The mustache slowly scraped off all the gum between the two logs, and the cutting edge of the alloy pipe was stuck in the gap.
When he pried, the wood made a squeaking sound, and the two logs split from the middle. With a dexterous movement of the mustache, the half of the log serving as the lid of the coffin was completely separated from the wooden coffin.
This is indeed a tree coffin used for burying people. There are many thick layers of linen inside, but it is terrible. Only the fibrous tissue of the cloth can be vaguely distinguished. Only the head of the body is exposed, and the rest of the body is wrapped in thick layers.
Thick linen cloth. They removed some of the remaining fibers of the linen cloth. The body had obviously been embalmed, and the corpse in this place was not very rotten. Parts were rotten and part dried, like an incomplete mummy.
The mustache stretched out the alloy tube and pushed aside the linen fibers covering the left hand of the corpse. The corpse's left hand was completely shrunken, like a few twisted dry branches. The moment he pulled the linen fibers apart, he immediately saw a piece of fiber growing on the little finger.
Six fingers.
"Is this their god?"
"There is this thing!" Jinpu Ngawang shouted immediately. He picked up a sign from the chest of the corpse that was almost integrated into the flesh.
As soon as the brand was taken out, its original color flashed out. It was a kind of purple-glow metal. The purple was very pure, soft and noble, and the brand looked like a bull's head.
"Do you know what this is?" Jinpu Ngawang looked very excited. He kept wiping the bull's head tablet with his sleeves: "This is the Great Lute tablet! This man is a Great Lute!"
Ordinary Lute cards are all black in color. Only the magic cards held by the extremely respected Great Lute show a noble purple color. Jinpu Awang obviously did not expect to find the extremely rare Great Lute in this place.
Card, this thing is the same as the Buddha's relics when the ancient benzene is not exhausted.
The mustache was a little confused, and all kinds of messy clues were completely mixed up. Da Lute is the supreme figure in Guben. Is this dark night temple the temple of Guben? A Dalute with six fingers,
What did it mean? He didn't expect that when he was looking for the roots of his family, he would find it here all of a sudden.
After opening a log coffin, the identities of the coffin owners of the other log coffins can actually be determined. They must all be big lutes, otherwise it would be impossible to place them side by side with it. Mustache does not know whether the other six big lutes are six-fingered.
, if they all have six fingers, this thing will become very interesting.
They then opened the wooden coffins one by one. When six of them were opened, a very interesting situation appeared. The six corpses buried here were all people with six fingers on their left hands.
And there is no doubt about their identity, because each corpse has a large purple Lute card symbolizing the Supreme.
"I have already doubted whether these people have anything to do with the prophecies of the end of the world?" Mustache suddenly remembered what Rinpoche had told him about Chanado when he met with Rinpoche in the Gaza Monastery.
When Chanado left the Kadela Monastery and traveled around, he always preached a point of view: when the world is about to collapse, only people with six fingers can save it all.
The six supreme Lutes all have six fingers. This is certainly not a coincidence. The believers obviously have different views from Tibetan Buddhism. They do not believe in the theory of reincarnation. They only recognize six fingers.
The order of arrangement of the original wooden coffins should be from left to right. The one on the left is the oldest and the one on the right is the closest. The believers of the Dark Night Temple have reproduced here for seven generations, so only seven large Lute coffins are left.
According to the remains, these people probably left here under the leadership of the eighth generation Great Root.
The only unopened wooden coffin left is the one on the far right. Mustache has always believed that there would be something inside the nine-story tower, but so far they have only obtained a few large Lute tablets, which are very, very rare and precious antiquities.
, however, it has no substantial use. According to rumors, the purple Great Lute card has pure power from the gods and can suppress all demons and monsters. However, too much time has passed, and the power of the Great Lute card has dissipated, and it has become...
It became a piece of ordinary iron.
"Our hopes are all in the last log coffin." Mustache said to Jinpu Awang. He suddenly realized that his judgment was wrong? For those devout believers, the body of Da Lute itself
It is precious and cannot be desecrated. The green fur around the nine-story tower guards the nine-story tower and the body of Great Lute. This can be said to be true.
But the moment Xiaozi opened the last wooden coffin according to the previous method, his and Jinpu Awang's eyes were filled with a golden light.
