I expressed my doubts, and Wen Qingshan explained to me: "According to the record on this tablet, Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, did die in Tongcheng, Hubei Province. However, after his death, his subordinates tried to prevent his body from being cleared.
The soldiers trampled him, so he was transported here."
"But why didn't they bury the body instead of hiding it in this cave? Didn't they say it would be safe to bury it?" I still didn't understand.
Huang Yixian said: "This is an ancient and mysterious burial method - cave burial. The reason why they do this actually has another purpose!"
"What purpose?" I asked.
"This place is the Yin point of Tai Chi, where the spiritual energy of Yin and Yang gathers together. An old saying goes: 'Yin and Yang transform all things into being', so they believe that placing King Chuang's body here can bring King Chuang back to life."
"Rebirth!?" I was startled, "This is too ridiculous!"
Wen Qingshan added on the side: "Not only that, they also brought a phoenix egg. In ancient mythology, the phoenix is a divine bird that can be reborn from nirvana. They hope that King Chuang can die with the help of this divine bird egg."
And come back to life."
"What phoenix egg?" I was slightly stunned at first, then suddenly realized it and said in surprise: "Wait! Could it be that you... you are talking about that... that black snake egg?"
Wen Qingshan nodded and said: "Now it seems that just as we guessed wrong, the giant snake in the cave is the black water snake that hatched from a different egg!"
When I mentioned the Black Water Black Snake, I suddenly became nervous again. I looked around subconsciously, but I didn't see any sign of the giant snake. However, I found that around the cave hall, there were also
There are several cave entrances, and maybe the giant snake is hiding in one of them!
I couldn't help but shudder. After calming down, I suddenly thought of the treasure again and quickly asked: "Is there any mention of treasure on the stone tablet?"
Wen Qingshan frowned and said: "It is mentioned on the stone tablet that when King Chuang reaches Nirvana and the treasure is opened, it will be the time when the universe will be rebuilt. But where will this treasure be hidden?"
Huang Yixian sighed: "Hey! What a treasure! In my opinion, in the minds of Li Zicheng's close friends and dead men, his body is a treasure!"
"But according to historical records, King Chuang's army plundered almost the entire city of Beijing and the treasury of the Ming Dynasty. If such a large amount of treasure had not been hidden, where would it have gone? It can't be just out of thin air.
Has it disappeared?" Wen Qingshan asked.
Huang Yixian was speechless for a moment.
Wen Qingshan pondered for a while and said: "Based on my understanding of this passage, the clue to the treasure should be in King Chuang's coffin. Otherwise, let's open the sarcophagus and take a look."
Huang Yixian agreed, so the three of us immediately started working.
It is not an easy task to open this sarcophagus. The three of us first held the corners of the coffin lid and tried to lift it, but the lid did not move at all.
So Wen Qingshan took out a few crowbars from his backpack. The three of us stood on the left side of the sarcophagus, inserted the crowbars into the small crack, and then worked together again. This time, the coffin lid was finally pried open.
A little bit.
We were about to work harder to fully open the coffin lid, but at this moment, a loud "bang" sound suddenly came from the side, which shocked the three of us. As soon as our hands loosened, the coffin lid fell.
It closed heavily again.
We quickly turned around and were surprised to see three people standing at the entrance of a cave not far from us! We didn't know when they came in.
These three people were wearing caving suits and caving backpacks on their backs. They were dressed more like scientific expedition personnel than us. They looked very professional. But what was surprising was that all three of them actually had guns in their hands.
, just now one of the guys fired a shot into the air. I took a closer look at the guy who fired the shot. He looked familiar, as if I had seen him somewhere, but I couldn't remember it for a moment.
Three guys walked towards us with guns in hand. The one who fired just now seemed to be the boss of the three. As he walked, he said: "You guys are really capable. I didn't expect that you found them before us."
This place.”
As soon as I heard him speak, I immediately knew who this guy was. He was the guy named Liu Qiang who used to hang out with Bai Xiaowu. However, he has changed his image now. Not only did he cut his hair short, but he also dyed it
It was black, so I didn't recognize it for a while.
Wen Qingshan seemed to recognize the guy in front of him, smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said: "This brother, we should have met when we were in Qiping Village. There is no hatred or resentment between us, so why use swords and guns!
If you have any questions, let’s talk about it.”
"Huh! Don't let me play tricks, I won't do this." Liu Qiang said, shaking the muzzle of the gun towards us. Looking at the black hole of the muzzle, my heart couldn't help but beat wildly.
Wen Qingshan didn't change his expression, and still maintained a calm smile on his face. He said calmly: "Haha, now that the matter has come to an end, there is no need to beat around the bush. You must have come here for the Dashun treasure, but the current situation is that you
I also saw that the legendary Dashun Treasure may not exist at all. There is nothing to fight between us, so how about we make friends?"
Liu Qiang raised his head and smiled: "Hahahaha! Of course I know the treasure is not here, and I didn't say we came here for the treasure!"
"Haha, if it's not for the treasure, why not do it for the archeology?" Wen Qingshan asked with a smile.
Liu Qiang snorted with disdain: "Huh! You guys won't live long anyway, and I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. We are here for..." He was halfway through speaking when a voice suddenly came from behind him.
Shouted: "Shut up!"
He was so frightened that he trembled violently and quickly closed his mouth.
The one who spoke was obviously not his other two accomplices. In other words, in addition to these three guys, there was another guy behind him.
I raised my head and glanced behind the three guys, and saw a burly man wearing black clothes walking out of the cave behind them. The three guys immediately stood aside respectfully and made way for them.
They seemed to be in awe of the big man in black. It seemed that this guy was their boss.
When the big man in black approached, I couldn't help but be startled when I saw his face.
It was definitely the most disgusting face I had ever seen in my life. It was full of ravines, as if someone had poured sulfuric acid on it, and there even seemed to be something crawling on that terrifying face.
The guy glanced at the three of us with a pair of blood-red eyes, then looked at the crowbar in our hands, pointed his hand towards the sarcophagus, and said coldly in a commanding tone: "Pry this sarcophagus open."
open!"
I couldn't help but feel a little stunned, and thought to myself: "This guy didn't even look at the stone tablet, how did he know it was a sarcophagus? Could it be that they just heard our conversation?"
Just as he was thinking about it, the guy shouted in a deep voice: "Hurry up and do it!"
Wen Qingshan turned to look at Huang Yixian and me, and said calmly: "Just do as he said and pry open the sarcophagus!"
So the three of us started working again with crowbars.
However, because those guys were watching us and pointing guns at us, I felt very nervous. My hands kept trembling and I couldn't use any strength. After a long time of prying, I still couldn't pry open the sarcophagus.
.
The guy with the scars on his face seemed a little impatient to wait. He turned to Liu Qiang and said, "Go over and help. Open the sarcophagus quickly!"
Liu Qiang immediately put the pistol on his waist, took out a crowbar from his backpack, and walked over quickly.
With Liu Qiang joining in, the coffin lid was quickly pried up. We all worked hard together, and the coffin lid was pushed aside. The sarcophagus was finally opened. Immediately, a refreshing fragrance floated out from the coffin. This
I was a little surprised. I curiously took a look inside the sarcophagus and saw a mummy wearing armor. A sword was placed on the chest of the mummy, and under his head,
There seems to be a black wooden box resting on it.
I was about to see what happened when Liu Qiang, who was standing next to me, suddenly let out a scream. I turned around and saw that it was Wen Qingshan who had attacked him and inserted a silver nail into the back of his neck. He quickly jumped up.
She got behind him and grabbed his neck.
Liu Qiang was completely restrained and could not move for a moment. Wen Qingshan stood behind him and said to Scarface: "Let them all put down their guns!"
The scar-faced man smiled sinisterly and said: "Hey! Do you think you can blackmail me if you catch him?" He turned his head, winked at the other two guys, and said coldly: "Kill them all.
!”
The two guys immediately pointed their guns at us. Liu Qiang was shocked and shouted: "No... don't..." Before he could say a word, there was a "bang", the gun went off, and the bullet was just right.
Hitting Liu Qiang's chest, he opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something more, but he could no longer speak.
The three of us were all shocked. We didn't expect these guys to be so cruel! They didn't even spare their own accomplices. It seemed that they were determined to kill us. Huang Yixian and I hurriedly squatted down and hid behind the sarcophagus.
Wen Qingshan didn't dare to use Liu Qiang as a shield anymore, so he quickly pushed his body forward and quickly squatted down.
The two guys walked towards us slowly. Although their steps were very light, they could hear very clearly in this very quiet environment. I quickly took out the fish intestine sword, and Wen Qingshan also touched it.
He took out a few silver nails and held them in his hand. Although Huang Yixian had a way of dealing with ghosts and evil spirits, he had no weapons to deal with people. He could only hold tightly to the crowbar he had just used to open the coffin.
The footsteps seemed to be getting closer and closer to us, and I felt extremely nervous. To me, the subtle footsteps were no different from the footsteps of the God of Death.
