Black gunpowder is one of the four great inventions in ancient China. It has a history of more than 1,000 years. It was accidentally invented by ancient alchemists. From the Warring States to the early Han Dynasty, the emperors and nobles were intoxicated with the fantasy of immortality and drove some alchemists to Taoist priests refined elixirs and gradually invented the formula of gunpowder during the refining process.

It is mainly composed of sulfur, saltpeter and charcoal. The composition ratio is roughly "one sulfur, two nitrates and three charcoal". Ge Hong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty recorded in Baopuzi that saltpeter, Wudang Mountain realgar, rosin and pig intestine fat were mixed to make a pill as white as ice. Medicine, "Everything you take will lead to longevity and cure all diseases."

"What's the use of this? Do you still want to take it?"

Xiaoya mentioned it and felt that the weight was not light. The two of them were originally climbing the rock with bare hands, and the weight was very embarrassing. The bleeding on Lao Wu's feet had stopped, but it was not very difficult. It was really necessary. If you take it, you will definitely carry it on your shoulders. After thinking about it, Xiaoya still shook her head gently.

Lao Wu didn't say anything and put the jar honestly back on the stone platform.

But I never thought that the person who built the tomb thought carefully about everything. Even the gunpowder alone was related to people's life and death.

The two came out of the cave, and Xiaoya found a set of equipment for each of them. The equipment was actually just rattan soaked in grease and still usable, but the rest was already rotten, even though it was old. It's better than nothing. Hanging an oil lamp on each waist of the two of them, with the mouth of the lamp facing down, will not burn themselves.

When Old Wu poked his head out of the cave, he saw that the bottom of the pit was completely white. The entire cave was illuminated. When Old Wu looked up again, he saw that he was not far from the top of the cave. It was right above his head. But it still spans this section of stone beam. The stone beam spans the top of the entire cave, just like a pole, connecting the left and right. I don’t know whether it is because it is far away or the stone beam itself is too thin. Old Wu always feels that this Stone beams can break at any time.

"Look below!" Xiaoya exclaimed again.

Old Wu looked down following Xiaoya's voice and was so frightened that he almost fell down.

I saw that the all-white thing at the bottom of the cave started to squirm everywhere like a bug. As if it could deform, it followed the holes under the rocks and began to drill outwards. But what was even more unexpected was that , but the stone slab did not move at all. This thing was like dough, constantly stretching outwards. Only when the thing crawled out from under the pile of rocks did Old Wu understand that this completely transparent thing was actually It's people.

To be precise, it should be the human soul.

"Is this true?" Old Wu bit the tip of his tongue in disbelief, but found that the scene in front of him had not changed at all.

Lao Wu remembers that he was very playful when he was a child. He once fell off the shelf of an old power plant. When he got home, he started to have a fever. He felt weak all over. He felt like he hadn't woken up all day long. His head was so dizzy that he didn't want to go. I started to feel sleepy as soon as I started class.

The teacher was giving a lecture on the podium, but his eyes were always fixed on me. Later I realized that the teacher suspected that he had gone to Tongxiao at night, but he really didn't.

At that time, Cui Yuan was just building up his reputation. He was busy running to the countryside to collect things all day long, and he was even more stupid than to care about them. Five or six days passed like this, until Cui Yuan came back, but he was shocked. He said something He kept saying, "My little ancestor is so lucky. What kind of evil have you done? Fortunately, I came back early."

Lao Wu was very puzzled. He didn't eat anything secretly. How could he be lucky that you came back early? When he asked, he realized that he was scared out of his wits.

Chinese Taoism and traditional Chinese medicine explain the human soul. The human soul is composed of souls. There are three souls, one is the soul of heaven, the second is the soul of earth, and the third is the soul of life. There are seven souls, one is heavenly and the other is life.

Soul wisdom, three souls are Qi, four souls are strength, five souls are the center, six souls are essence, and seven souls are heroes. As the folk saying goes, "After a person dies, seven souls disperse, one of the three souls returns to the tomb, and the other returns to the god.

The third soul went to the underworld to be judged and even reincarnated."

According to Cui Yuan, Lao Wu's third soul is no longer in his body. Fortunately, he came back early. If the third soul cannot return within seven days, Lao Wu will have to go to the underworld for trial. By then, Lao Wu

It’s hard to think of anything going wrong.

At that time, Cui Yuan was talking nonsense, and Lao Wu didn't believe it in his heart. But now, Lao Wu believes it. Watching the translucent things come out from under the pile of rocks one by one, Lao Wu completely believes it.

.

"What should I do?" Lao Wu asked

"It's my turn to ask you, are you a man?"

Lao Wu ignored his blush at the moment and looked down. The souls below seemed to have heard their conversation. They all raised their heads with strange faces, looked at them, and climbed up along the wall.

"Let's go!" Lao Wu shouted, his survival instinct telling him that there was only one way in his mind now.

The two of them climbed along the stone wall for a short distance, but they heard another "rustling" sound coming from underneath them.

Old Wu was so familiar with the sound that he lowered his head and looked down. He saw that at the entrance of the passage, large bulges of grass began to pour out, and soon the entire wall was covered in black.

Old Wu was stunned on the spot. He almost lost control of himself and wet his pants. Thanks to Xiaoya shouting a few times from behind, Old Wu realized what he was doing and started to climb up with both hands and feet.

It is true that blessings are unparalleled, and misfortunes never come alone. I don’t look at the almanac when I go out, and even eating a piece of tofu will hurt my teeth.

Besides, Xie Fei followed the skeleton all the way. He didn't know whether the skeleton was a blessing or a curse. He already regarded himself as the skeleton's destined person. He didn't dare to be distracted at all while chasing after him.

After walking for a while, he saw that the road had become wider. After a closer look, it looked very familiar. Xie Fei looked around again. Wasn't it the stone room where the three of them met Mr. Li? Why did they go around so much?

The circle came back again, and thinking about Mr. Li's missing body, Xie Fei suddenly felt chills all over.

But the skeleton just jumped on the spot without even thinking or looking, and got into another jumping passage.

Xie Fei didn't dare to relax and followed closely. But before he could follow in, he saw a burst of red light in the passage beside him. Xie Fei curiously looked in, and the hairs all over his body stood up in fear. It turned out to be a

people.

Xie Fei stood on the spot in fear, not daring to move. He rubbed his eyes, looked again and saw again, it was pitch black, and there was a figure there.

"Did I see it wrong?" Xie Fei thought in his mind and was about to step forward when a voice suddenly rang in his ears.

"Young man, are you looking for me?"

Xie Fei opened his mouth in shock and was stunned for a few seconds before turning his head slightly.

He rubbed his eyes vigorously, but this time the scene in front of him did not change.

Xie Fei still couldn't believe that this was true. Even if he saw that 'ghost' again, Xie Fei would not be so scared.

After looking up and down, I saw that this man's head was surprisingly large, with only a few sparse hairs. Could it be Mr. Li or someone else.

"Your name is Xie Fei?" Seeing that Xie Fei didn't speak, Mr. Li opened his mouth first.

Xie Fei was still stunned on the spot. He knew a secret technique of seducing people. When a stranger calls your name, as long as you say yes, you will be in trouble.

"Young man, don't be afraid."

Xie Fei cursed secretly in his heart, "Don't be afraid, just fucking try it on me. Even if you transform into a corpse, you still need some time."
