Chapter 21 Chen Siyuan
Zhu Houzhao, the Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty, lived a carefree life and was cowardly. It is said that he died of debauchery. To put it bluntly, he probably died on the belly of a woman on one night.
Wuzong had many absurd things, and he was so beautiful, so Liu Jin set up a leopard room for him to enjoy himself, which was a bit similar to the Lutai and the wine pond and meat forest of King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty, where there were countless beauties and concubines.
It is said that he is not only licentious, but also likes to visit privately. The women presented to the palace are tired of it, and Emperor Wuzong likes to visit the United States by himself.
It is said that once, he visited Chuzhou in private, and a woman suddenly ran out of the mountains and fields. This woman was graceful and looked like a fairy figure. Unfortunately, she wore a strange jade mask on her face, covering her face.
Despite this, his wonderful body had already fascinated Wu Zong. He immediately asked the people around him to stop the woman and forcefully take off her mask. This was amazing. The person under the mask was so beautiful that he was not a piece of cake. This woman was immediately taken back to the harem by Wu Zong and was favored in every way. He would not give the stars if he wanted the moon.
Although Emperor Wuzong was lustful, he was still diligent in the government affairs. But there is a saying that: Spring night is short and the sun shines brightly. From then on, will the king not be in the morning? After Wuzong has no one, the political affairs gradually become abandoned. Some ministers made suggestions and said, "The emperor wanted this woman himself, but he ignored the government affairs. The woman came from the mountains and often liked to wear a strange mask. It must be transformed by monsters in the mountains. The emperor must learn from the lessons. Don't learn from King Zhou and get Daji by his side."
Wu Zong was dissatisfied when he heard this, and thought to himself that you old guys are in charge of the world and are nagging in my ears all day long. Now even my women have to care about them. If you don’t give you some color, you really think of me as a soft persimmon.
Even after the old ministers were dismissed, it was bizarre that after these people were dismissed, they were in trouble and died soon after. This matter was not over. Even with the descendants of the old ministers, they were all shining with bad stars, and few of them could survive beyond the age of thirty.
This matter gradually spread, and the woman was transformed by a monster. Whoever offends her will be in trouble.
The people hated her so much that they called her in private.
It is said that after the death of the Wan Yao Concubine, she returned to her hometown and was buried. In other words, her golden coffin tomb is likely to be in the Chuzhou area.
There is another legend that it is said that the Wan Yao Concubine does have a kind of demonic power that can bring people into dreams and kill people in dreams. All her demonic power comes from the strange mask she has brought.
What exactly this mask looks like is unknown.
But Yang Fang accidentally discovered a Fengshui treasure cave where he passed by. According to the Fengshui specifications, he concluded that there must be a tomb of concubines under his feet, so he found a shovel to see the soil.
The so-called soil-looking viewing is a technology accumulated by tomb robbers through experience. Experts can judge the size, specifications, burial objects, depth and other information of the tomb by looking at the soil brought by Luoyang shovels, which is more accurate than modern underground detection instruments. Although tomb robbers are increasingly relying on high technology now, real experts still retain traditional means.
There are too many ways to talk about in this, so I won’t express them one by one.
The soil is brought out, and there are five-color mud. Five-color mud. That is, when building a tomb, the surrounding soil layer structure is destroyed, causing the soil layers of various periods to be mixed together. There are not really five colors. Most people are not very sensitive to this, but those who dig mushrooms, archaeological, or geological are very sensitive to the nuances of these soils.
If five-color mud is brought out deep in the soil layer, it means there is definitely a tomb below.
Yang Fang looked at the soil carefully, and when he smelled it, he looked at it, and was immediately shocked. The soil contained cinnabar, which was a poisonous place. No wonder this area did not grow any grass. It turned out that there was a highly poisonous tomb buried below.
Cinnabar wards off evil spirits, but who would mix cinnabar around the tomb? Could it be that there are monsters and ghosts living in this tomb? Do you want to use cinnabar to shake it?
It is difficult for anyone to move this poisonous tomb. Yang Jian temporarily stopped and went home to collect various clues, and gradually locked the identity of the tomb owner on the body of the concubine Wan Yao.
After saying that, Yang Fang looked at the two and said, "Two brothers, it is said that the mask of the Ten Thousand Demon Concubine is carved from strange jade, as thin as a cicada's wing, and has the power of unpredictable gods and ghosts. She is also the favorite concubine of Wuzong, and the burial objects must be indispensable. This time I just want to get that mask. As for the other things in the tomb, the two brothers just take it. Let the three of us work together and we will definitely be able to turn it upside down."
It would be a fool to not dig a tomb. The three of them were all good players in this industry. Although the poisonous tomb was a bit dangerous, they could not scare them. After planning a plan, they immediately planned a countermeasure. The flying sword Bai Laosi and Tu Heihu each brought two subordinates, a group of seven people, and secretly went to the cemetery of the Wan Yaofei Concubine.
The four men took turns to drill holes and used Luoyang shovels to make holes very fast, including modern times. Although many new tools were produced, Luoyang shovels were the most convenient when it comes to drilling holes, even the archaeological team used this thing.
Luoyang shovel is called by people outside the circle. In the tomb robbery and archaeological industries, our standard title is: shovel, that is, shovels that have multiple functions to detect the environment in the soil.
At that time, I used the 60-type Luoyang shovel. Although it was not as convenient as the 21-type now, several people took turns to dig holes, and they were all veterans. They were not as low-level as the tofu and I were able to drill holes. Therefore, in less than two hours, I dug more than ten meters and pried the bluestone slab.
A strong smell of cinnabar came to the nose, making people dizzy. Several people pried the bluestone slabs, and a turbid air came from the tomb.
The few people were not busy going to the ground, and stayed outside, beating some hares and baking them, waiting for the turbid air in the tomb to emptiate. At night, when the moon was in the middle of the sky, everyone gathered together to go down to the tomb.
Zhao Erye himself couldn't say what he had experienced in this tomb, but after fighting this tomb, the two men, slaughtered Heihu and Yang Fang, disappeared from this world.
Some people speculate that they might have been beaten by Bai Laosi.
The flying knife covers Lao Si, and the smiley fox is in the belly. It is common to eat black and eat black. Who on the road doesn’t know? But he can eat two good players, Tu Heihu and Yang Fang, and it’s unlikely that he can think of it?
Besides, even if he is really a bad person, where is the food he eats?
But he has never sold the goods.
This matter has always been a mystery. After the fight there, the era became more chaotic. As the civil war broke out, the people were living in poverty. Bai Laosi gradually disappeared and faded out of people's sight.
No one knows the specific location of the tomb of the Wan Yao Concubine. What happened in it is even more of a mystery.
This is the first person Zhao Erye told us, why should he talk about him?
Because after Bai Laosi disappeared for many years, when he appeared again, there was an apprentice around him. This apprentice was nicknamed "Ghost King". Lao Baisi liked to call him "Little Ghost". As for why he gave such a nickname, no one knew.
Bai Laosi has been back in the world again and has become much more low-key, so everyone knows not much about what happened after he returns to the world. In comparison, his apprentice is even more special.
What is the real name of the Ghost King?
Called Chen Siyuan.
Chen Siyuan, this is my grandfather's name. Tofu also knew that he gasped and said, "The old man has such a nickname, and he is a famous family." I was even more excited, but I didn't show it on my face. I hate being led by someone, and I don't want to lose my composure in front of Mr. Zhao. So I said to Tofu indifferently, "Stop talking about it. The nickname of the Ghost King is not good. This is a god. How can it be placed on people? The Ghost King is unhappy, maybe I will really ask my grandfather to go down."
There is a superstition among the people that the name or nickname is too important to the spirit and will cause dissatisfaction among the gods. For example, when we worship tablets, only gods and dead relatives are qualified to be worshipped.
In the past, there were ways to harm people. For example, the people hated corrupt officials and could not beat them up and vent their anger. What should I do? I gave corrupt officials a throne at home, wrote the name of the corrupt official, and added the name of the gods after the name.
For example, my name is Chen Xuan, and I wrote on the throne: Chancellor Chen Xuan.
Then, incense is poured in the morning and evening, and worship according to the ceremony of worshiping God.
The person who is worshipped is an ordinary person, and he cannot bear this incense. His destiny cannot be suppressed. He will soon be worshipped and will meet the King of Hell in advance. Of course, this is all folk superstition and cannot be taken seriously.
But my grandfather must have a history of being named Ghost King. And he is actually related to Bai Laosi, why has he never told me this?
Why did Mr. Zhao know so clearly?
After talking about my grandfather Chen Siyuan's name, Mr. Zhao smiled and said, "Your grandfather, Chen Siyuan, this is the second person I want to tell you."
Bai Laosi and Chen Siyuan were very low-key on the road. Everyone thought that Bai Laosi was no longer able to do it. Finally, one day, Bai Laosi no longer appeared in people's sight. Perhaps he had encountered some danger and died in an ancient tomb. Perhaps he was washing his hands, saying goodbye to the past, hiding in a place to enjoy his old age.
As soon as he disappeared, the Ghost King did not disappear. It was during this period that the Ghost King Chen Siyuan became famous.
If you want to say why, then you have a lot of talk.
