Chapter 87 Black Buddha
Partridge Whistle had an ominous premonition when he saw the dead man's bones. Hearing Elder Chen's serious tone, he knew it was a big deal, so he asked Elder Chen what Bodhisattva closed his eyes meant.
Elder Liaochen said: There are seventy-two moons in the sky, and tonight is the time when the moon will break, and evil will come out to compensate for evil. It is said that at this time of day, when the yang energy on the ground is weak and the lunar star is in the head, weird things are most likely to happen. Who dares to fight upside down?
At this time, I went to the tomb to find gold. At first, I thought it was an empty tomb without an owner. I didn't expect that there were bones inside. What was even more sinister was the Thousand-Eyed Black Buddha behind the bones. This black Buddha was not an ordinary thing.
There are hidden evil spirits, and our black donkey hooves and glutinous rice are of no use tonight. Let's retreat quickly.
Although Partridge Whistle was reluctant to leave, he also knew how powerful it was, so he didn't say much at the moment, and together with Elder Chen and the American priest, turned around to go back through the tunnel under the Jade Gate.
The three of them turned around and retreated, and the rear group became the front group. The American priest Thomas was at the front. Seeing that the two men were about to go out, Father Thomas really wanted to go out. He immediately found the tunnel entrance and lit up the partridge whistle.
Give him a candle to light and run in to escape.
Elder Liao Chen, who was walking second, yelled: No. He reached out and grabbed Father Thomas' collar and pulled him back. A thick black mist suddenly sprayed out from the tunnel. If Elder Liao Chen
The movement was slightly slower than half a beat, and Father Thomas must have been touched by the black mist. If he had only been a step later, the devout priest would have already gone to see his God.
Partridge Whistle and Elder Liao Chen both knew that this was the poisonous smoke in the ancient tomb. The only passages were equipped with such vicious mechanisms, which showed how vicious and cunning the Xixia people were. I don’t know who among the three encountered Ji Kuo.
Only then did he activate the poisonous smoke mechanism. Thanks to Elder Chen, although he was old, he was extremely experienced and saved Father Thomas's life.
This black poisonous smoke may be boiled with the poisonous juice of millipedes. It is thick and not dispersed, like a solidified black liquid. More and more black mist sprayed out from the tunnel. Partridge Whistle and other three people all took the secret to overcome the poison.
Medicine, Captain Mo Jin's secret medicine is mostly made to deal with corpse poison. It is unknown whether it will have any effect on such a thick poisonous smoke.
Seeing the thick black poisonous smoke coming quickly and fiercely, the three of them did not dare to be careless and had to retreat to the corner of the tomb where there were human bones. However, there was no obstruction here. They took a few steps back to reach the end. How could they block the poisonous smoke?
Let him enter the back room of the ancient tomb.
Partridge Whistle and Elder Liaochen were not worried about the lack of an escape route. They carried cyclone shovels with them. At worst, they could attack the thieves and get out, but they would not be able to block the poisonous smoke. They would be dead in a matter of seconds.
Even with Partridge Whistle's wit and Elder Liao Chen's experience, he was helpless. If it were ordinary poisonous smoke, he could just hold his breath and use the power of Honglian Miaoxin Pills to rush out. However, this black poisonous smoke
It was so dense that I had never seen it before. The three of them had been careful since they entered the tomb passage, and they could not touch any mechanism. No one could figure out how the black smoke came out.
Behind you is the stone wall of the tomb. Partridge Whistle and the other three people have their backs pressed against the wall. No matter how powerful you are, there is no way to retreat here. You can only watch the thick black smoke slowly coming towards you.
When Father Thomas saw this terrifying poisonous mist, his face turned pale with shock. He forgot to pray for God's blessing for a moment. Partridge Whistle pushed Father Thomas's shoulder and asked: Hello, foreign monk who worships God.
, now it’s urgent, why doesn’t your master come to save you?
Only then did Father Thomas remember that he was a clergyman, and said calmly: Almighty Heavenly Father is probably busy with other things and has no time to save me, but I believe that I will go to heaven after I die, and living is not important.
, the important thing is that you can go to heaven after death and believe in God and get eternal life.
The partridge whistle sneered and said: Humph, it turns out that your master is so busy. I think since he is too busy, it means that he is not qualified for his job, so it is better to let a monkey be the god. Monkeys are very energetic.
When Father Thomas heard Partridge Whistle say that God is worse than a monkey, he immediately became furious. He was about to speak out, but heard Partridge Whistle continue to say: Foreign monk, if you are willing to surrender to me now and stop believing in that bullshit God, I will
There is a way to keep you alive. If you don't agree, the poisonous smoke will spread here in at most one minute. Unless you are not made of flesh and blood, you will be bleeding to death from the poisonous smoke in about one minute at most.
Father Thomas said: Now that you are about to die, you can still be so calm. I admire you, but I also ask you to respect my belief. However, believing in Bodhisattva can really live. Are you lying to me?
Elder Liaochen has also discovered the key to the poisonous smoke. Listening to what Partridge Whistle said, he should have figured out a way to escape. Elder Liaochen saw that at this critical moment, Partridge Whistle still
I had the intention to joke with the American priest, and I couldn't help but admire his courage.
It turned out that Partridge Whistle saw that the front was completely covered by black fog, and subconsciously pressed against the wall. He felt a chill around him and bumped into something. When he looked sideways, he saw that it was a lamp on the wall of the tomb. This position should be on the top of the coffin.
Above, there is a hanging ever-burning lantern.
Now there is no coffin in the tomb, just an empty lamp embedded in the wall. What is the purpose of Partridge Whistle and Elder Liao Chen’s eyes? It can be seen at a glance that there is something wrong with the position of this lamp. According to the convention, the ever-burning lamp is always on the third
The height of the lamp is obviously a little lower, that is, half an inch lower. The angle of the lampstand is slightly tilted downward. This must be a hidden wall mechanism. As long as the lampstand is pushed upwards, the entire
The tomb wall will flip over, opening the secret room hidden in the back room. The secret room is extremely hidden. This place is also called the Pavilion. It is used to store the most important burial objects of the tomb owner. Even if the ancient tomb is stolen by tomb robbers,
It is not easy for tomb robbers to find the exposed objects in this secret room.
Partridge Whistle was so bold that even when there was no time to spare, he still said something to scare the foreign priest. Seeing that he would rather die than give up God and convert to Buddha, he admired his piety and felt a little sorry. The black mist in the tomb in front became more and more intense.
It was getting thicker and thicker, and the partridge whistle didn't dare to push too hard. He raised his hand to grab the ever-bright lamp and pushed it upwards. The ever-bright lamp embedded in the wall really moved in response to his hand. There was only a series of muffled sounds in his ears, and the three of them
The wall behind them turned backwards. The dust on the stone wall flew up, and everyone's heads were covered with dust.
Behind the wall is an ancient tomb chamber that is only two feet wide and high. The movable wall with a mechanism turned around and brought in the Thousand-Armed Black Buddha and the bones lying beside the wall. This chamber
There are not as many rare jewels in the pavilion as there are in the tomb chamber outside. There is only one locked box.
The Partridge Whistle didn't bother to take a closer look, so he opened up two pieces of the tomb floor and wiped the soil underneath onto the cracks in the wall to prevent the black poisonous smoke from outside from entering through the cracks in the wall. Moreover, he discovered that the pavilion was inserted underground.
The soil here is relatively soft, so you can be sure that the thieves will be able to get out within an hour. It shouldn't be a problem to maintain the air here for such a short period of time.
Elder Liaochen had been fighting all his life and was no stranger to such a narrow tomb. When he saw the partridges whistling non-stop, he immediately used a cyclone shovel to dig into the hole. So he twisted his beads and sat down cross-legged to meditate.
When Father Thomas saw Partridge Whistle and Elder Chen moving quietly and going about their own business without saying anything, Father Thomas couldn't help but ask Elder Chen: Have you noticed that there is something in the black mist outside? I don't think it's right.
Like poison gas.
Elder Liaochen closed his eyes and said nothing. After a while, he slowly opened his glasses. Father Thomas said: Why, you saw it too.
Father Thomas nodded and said: The moment I was finally turned in through the flap door, I was very close to the black smoke. It seemed that there was a human figure in the black smoke, especially a Buddha statue. What was that?
Partridge Whistle was busy digging into the hole. After hearing what Father Thomas and Elder Liao Chen said, he couldn't help but raise his head. The moment the wall turned into the cabinet, he also saw the strange scene in the black mist.
.
Elder Liaochen thought for a while, pointed to the multi-handed black Buddha statue against the wall, and said: The black Buddha is said to be an evil god worshiped by the ancient Bong people. He specializes in controlling darkness. The cult that enveloped the dark Buddha dates back to the late Tang Dynasty.
It had already been exterminated by the government. Unexpectedly, there was a statue of Dark Buddha hidden in the Xixia palace. The material of this Black Buddha may be rotten jade from ancient Persia. Legend has it that this kind of rotten jade is a very rare and strange stone. It has a jade name.
, but it is not jade. Once any human or animal touches rotten jade, all the skin, flesh and internal organs will turn into pus in an instant, leaving only a skeleton. The soul of the deceased will be paid to the Dark Buddha, and the ghost will linger.
Partridge Whistle looked at the white human bones, and said to Elder Chen: It seems that this white bones may have been a loyal guard during his lifetime. He chose to stay in the treasure cave, touch the rotten jade and die, guarding the cave.
The three of us encountered a sudden black smoke. Maybe it wasn’t poisonous smoke at all, but if we don’t go on, everyone would know what it meant.
Elder Liao Chen asked Partridge Whistle and Father Thomas to go there and not let their skin come into contact with the Black Buddha statue, and quickly break through the robbery hole to leave. If there is really an evil spirit of the Black Buddha, this mere booth will not be able to stop it.
Elder Chen remembered that the human skeleton was holding a bunch of keys in his hand, so he took them out. There was a box in the cabinet, and maybe the Muchen Beads were in it. Is there one key in this bunch that can be used to open this box?
Try it.
Elder Liaochen lit the candle. There was no need to look for any southeast corner in the cabinet. As long as there was some light, it was fine. He picked up the keys and tried it, and sure enough, one of the keys could just open the lock on the box.
Head, Partridge Whistle's hole had been dug out by more than a foot. When he came up to disperse the soil, he saw Elder Chen opening the box. He couldn't help but want to see if there was a Muchen Bead inside, so he stopped the whirlwind in his hand.
Shovel, and Elder Liao Chen opened the box together, but there was only a piece of tortoise shell engraved with different inscriptions in the box.
Partridge Whistle was full of enthusiasm. Although he was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but feel extremely disappointed. It seemed as if he had been poured a basin of ice water on his head for thirty-nine days. He was freezing from head to toe. He was stunned on the spot and felt a sweet sensation in his throat.
, spit out a mouthful of blood, and sprayed it all on the tortoise shell.
Elder Liaochen was shocked. He knew that Partridge Whistle was too hot-tempered and had too many things. The more such a person was, the more persistent he was about things. He was prone to vomiting blood when his mood was up and down. He was worried that Partridge Whistle would faint and fell to the ground. He quickly talked to Thomas.
The priest stretched out his hand to support him.
But at this moment, Elder Liaochen appeared. The eyes of the black Buddha on the wall were opened at some point. Hundreds of eyes on the black Buddha were watching the three intruders in the darkness.
