Chapter 494 Wusheng Temple
Looking at the tens of thousands of small coffins in front of them, several people were surprised.
If you look closely, you will see that these small coffins are all engraved with different markings, and each one is different.
There are stars, hexagrams, five elements, six people, etc., all of which are based on a symbol in ancient magic as a mark.
Some coffin lids are engraved with "earth", some are engraved with "water", there are too many to mention, some are words about insect and fish relics, and some are painted with graphics.
Fatty Wang was a little strange: "Feng Shigu buried so many small coffins here. What is it for?"
Professor Sun stepped forward to take a look, and then said: "It is Feng Shigu's handiwork, but these coffins may not be made by him."
"What do you mean, do you know the origin of these coffins?"
Fatty Wang looked sideways at Professor Sun. Ever since he fell out with him just now, he was no longer as polite to Professor Sun as before.
Professor Sun said: "I have seen a document in the archives. In the late Qing Dynasty, a group of foreigners plundered and defrauded our Chinese antiques in Bashan and Shushui. As a result, they were discovered by the government and a large number of cultural relics were seized.
Later, the government found the ancient tomb, which contained tens of thousands of small coffins, but there was nothing in the coffins. When they opened the coffins, they only saw a dark stain of blood.
Officials were worried that there was some ominous monster sealed in the coffin, which would cause trouble if destroyed, so they ordered the mountain to be sealed and buried.
In the land of Bashu, witchcraft has been prevalent since ancient times. The mysterious culture left behind is influenced by the three generations of "Xia, Shang and Zhou" in the Central Plains. It is believed that there is a "god" buried in the Wushan Mountains.
According to the custom of witchcraft, after death, the same "organs" are taken from a person, hidden in a small sarcophagus, and then buried in a cave to offer to the gods.
There are many areas named after "coffins" in the ancient Shu land of Cuba. Tracing back to the origin, these coffins should be objects left by ancient Shu, but they were dug out by the ancient thieves."
Song Xing looked at the countless sarcophagi in front of him and said calmly: "The coffin enchantment, the ancient tomb map, it seems that these coffins contain the ancient tomb map that Feng Shi left to the Feng family later."
Fatty Wang nodded and said, "In that case, we must quickly find a way to open one of the coffins and find the map."
Professor Sun shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's difficult! Feng Shigu was the strongest among the Guanshan Taibao during his lifetime, and the backhand he laid must be extraordinary. I'm afraid it's not that easy to untie."
Song Xing had secretly asked the five ghosts to peek into these sarcophagi, and found that there was an object in each small coffin, with different patterns carved on it, but there was no mechanism.
It seems that Feng Shigu didn't set any traps at this level. The real difficulty was to find the real map among the tens of thousands of coffins.
Thinking of this, he began to think about the mountain-viewing riddles recorded by Professor Sun before.
"The gates of life are connected, with one head and one tail; there are twenty-four thousand, and there are seven in a hundred."
Looking at the layout of these coffins, after thinking about it for a while, I got the idea.
Twenty-four thousand, seven out of every hundred, exactly correspond to the number of "Book of Changes" in the Ming Dynasty.
You must know that in the world of Tianlong, he spent a hundred years studying the "Yi Long Tu", "Zhi Xuan Pian", "Zhou Yi" and other mathematical classics written by ancestor Chen Tuan, and created his own unique collection.
When it comes to his familiarity with the Book of Changes, even Hu Bayi, who is proficient in the Dragon Search Jue, is far behind him.
While Professor Sun and others were still pondering the mystery, he had already seen through the riddle left by Feng Shigu.
Since the Song Dynasty, Feng Shui has focused on the principles of the five elements, so there is a theory of the five surnames Yinli. This is to classify the pronunciation of the surnames into "gold, wood, water, and fire" according to "gong, shang, zheng, jiao, xuan". , earth" among the five elements.
Since King Wen created Houtian Bagua and deduced the Book of Changes, no matter how later generations deduced Feng Shui acupuncture points, they would just turn the Book of Changes upside down.
The sixteen hexagrams of the Zhou Dynasty, which lead to the changes in heaven and earth, are not just words.
The so-called eight gates are "Xiu, Sheng, Shang, Du; Jing, Death, Jing, Kai". The Sheng gate in "Zhouyi" has two phases of Yin and Yang - starting from "Zhen" and ending with "Gen". The two sarcophagi marked "Zhen, Gen" contain the real map of "Dixian Village".
After thinking about this, Song Xing stretched out his hand and "Zhen, Gen" the two sarcophagi flew straight up and landed in his hands.
When he pried open the lid, he saw two pieces of colored porcelain inside, which were spliced together to form one piece. The pattern painted on the screen looked like a delicate and complicated pattern, and the content was extremely weird.
In addition to the village hidden in the mountains, the scene depicted also has two parts. One side is a human head, and the other side is a coffin. There is no life cover on the coffin. From a 45-degree bird's eye view, you can see inside the coffin. There is a headless corpse, and the position of the corpse is consistent with the solitary hanging human head.
Seeing this pattern, everyone thought: What a great king, with body and no head.
As a descendant of the Feng family, Professor Sun indeed still has some secrets hidden. However, after experiencing the scene where Song Xing saw through his life lamp just now, he did not dare to hide it anymore. He looked at the porcelain pieces and said: "It has been said since ancient times that there are secrets hidden in the coffin gorge. Coffin Mountain, that Coffin Mountain is the real location of the ancient tomb of Dixian Village. There is a natural wonder underground. The huge underground rock formation is shaped like an uncovered sarcophagus, and the hills and ravines inside are like a headless body. The corpse, the Wuyang King’s underground palace is the head. If we follow the real mountain viewing guide, the corpse and the head painted on the porcelain screen should be the directional coordinates."
Next, without even using the blood talisman, Song Xing relied on Zhou Yi's knowledge and understood the coordinates on the tiles, and led a few people to climb the wall into the dense caves, which were half natural and half hewn. Where the salt is left, there are many labyrinths inside, which are extremely deep and winding.
After walking for a long time in the grotto, I finally found a cave within a cave, a secret passage hidden under the mountain, and finally arrived at the entrance to the Earth Immortal Tomb.
After passing the entrance, we came to a large canyon in the middle of the mountain. As we walked closer, there were actually trees and flowers in the canyon, but they grew in strange shapes.
"It's strange. It was so dark here, but can saplings grow?" Fatty Wang felt strange.
Professor Sun said: "This mountain range contains strange power, which can even be said to be a supernatural phenomenon. Naturally, it cannot be treated as normal."
After passing through the trees, I saw a temple facing me.
This brick-and-wood temple has no courtyard and is half-hidden underground in ancient woods. There are two iron flagpoles standing in front of the door.
The temple is about two stories high. The roof is covered with three-color glazed tiles of "green, yellow and blue". The four walls are red and the bottom is red. , the eight characters "Conquer the Demons and Join the Heaven".
Song Xing looked at the porcelain piece in his hand. The situation here was consistent with the map drawn on the porcelain piece. It was close to the edge of Dixian Village.
Professor Sun warned everyone at this time that once they enter the boundary of Dixian Village, they must be careful of the guardian spirit of Dixian Village, the Nine-Death Jingling Armor!
