Chapter 528 Find the entrance
After checking several times in a row, we still found nothing. We couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, and my cousin frowned even more tightly.
"Cousin, we checked several times and found no mechanism. I guess you guessed wrong this time," Sister Li muttered beside her.
The cousin nodded and said softly: "Maybe I am wrong, but maybe we found the wrong method."
At this time, we all stopped and stood aside and looked at our cousin. Since we didn't find the mechanism on this stone, what should we do next?
My cousin also stood beside him with his arms folded, saying nothing, still staring at the stone. At this moment, a strong mountain wind blew by, and the stone suddenly made a strange sound. That sound was extremely strange.
Like the sound coming from an ancient xun, it is melodious and low-pitched, and reveals a kind of mystery.
When my cousin heard this sound, his eyes suddenly lit up and he asked us excitedly: "Did everyone hear it? The sound made by this stone."
We all looked at a loss. The wind blew through the rocks and made a sound. This is normal in the mountains. What's so strange? Old Yuan seemed to understand what his cousin meant and said excitedly: "You mean,
Is this stone an artificial 'Xun Stone Stele'?"
My cousin nodded vigorously: "Yes, this huge stone is the 'Xun Stone Stele'."
"What is the 'Xun Stone Stele'? What are you two talking about? Why don't we understand it at all?" I couldn't help but ask.
Old Yuan and his cousin looked very excited and ignored my question. Old Yuan continued to say with bright eyes: "Now we know where the mechanism is hidden in this stone."
The cousin quickly circled around the stone, then pointed to a position under the stone and said to Xiao Lei: "Xiao Lei, use the engineer shovel to dig down from this position."
Xiao Lei immediately took out the engineering shovel, and after digging a few times, he found that it was empty. What surprised us even more was that there was a stone handle inside, and the end of the stone handle was connected to the boulder.
Xiao Lei stretched out his hand and pulled the handle. Suddenly, there was a crash from the crater. We quickly looked into the crater and found that the crack had indeed appeared! It turned out that the mechanism was this stone handle, but none of us had known it before.
Unexpectedly, this kind of mechanism is buried underground.
At this time, the bright sunshine shone in from the crack, and almost at the moment of the crack, a scream came from the crack. The scream was very weak, as if it came from very deep underground.
, but it sounds very miserable and frightening. It sounds like a human scream, but if you listen carefully, it sounds like a wild beast.
We know that in the mysterious space below, perhaps for hundreds of millions of years, no sunlight has ever shined directly into it. But now, once the sunlight reaches that mysterious space directly, we don’t know what impact it will have on it.
The cousin immediately pulled the handle again, and the crack closed again, and everything returned to calm. At this time, we all realized that the cousin's conjecture was completely correct. There was indeed a mechanism on this huge rock that could close the crack.
Opening and closing.
"I just observed and found that a small piece of grass here has withered, so I knew that this piece of soil must have been recently plowed, so I asked Xiao Lei to dig down from here. Unexpectedly, I found the mechanism."
After hearing what our cousin said, we knew what was going on.
"Actually, we have found two entrances to the underground space now," my cousin said with a sigh of relief as he stared at the crater.
We were all surprised. The two entrances into the space were obviously just one, that is, the crack that had just appeared. Apart from that crack, was there any other entrance?
Old Yuan also nodded and said: "The other entrance is inside this boulder. The middle part of this boulder should be hollow and lead directly to that space."
The singing and singing between Old Yuan and his cousin made us even more confused. How did these two people know? After our inquiry, the cousin slowly explained: "When a gust of wind blew just now, this stone actually made a sound.
You may think that that kind of Xun sound is nothing to be surprised about, because many stones will make sounds when the wind blows over them. But what I want to say is that the stones that can make such Xun sounds are definitely not formed naturally.
It is man-made because only hollow stones can make that kind of sound when the wind blows.
Think about it, under natural weathering, stones may appear in various shapes, but they will never appear as hollow boulders. Therefore, this boulder has been processed and hollowed out, which surprised me even more.
Yes, this huge stone is actually a tombstone, and this kind of tombstone is called a 'Xun Stone Stele'."
"We just heard what you said, but what is this 'Xun Stone Stele'?" Kenya asked.
"Mr. Yuan knows more about this kind of 'Xun Stone Stele' than I do, so let's listen to his explanation."
Hearing what his cousin said, Mr. Yuan was not particularly humble. He nodded slightly and said, "Well, the 'Xun Stone Stele' is a unique type of stele in the Ming Dynasty. Legend has it that it appeared at the time of Zhu Yuanzhang.
In the early Ming Dynasty, there was a sect called "Mingjiao". It is said that this sect has a special ability that can make people who have died within three hours still stand up and walk. It is similar to driving away corpses, but driving away corpses
That kind of thing is actually a lie - it's just a dead person's body tied to a living person, covered with a large robe, and then carried away by the living person. The purpose of this is to defraud money.
But it is said that this kind of spell of the Mingjiao really makes the dead person take off all his clothes, and then the dead person will stand up and walk a certain distance by himself.
Moreover, even people who have been beheaded can stand up and walk using the magic of the Mingjiao. Therefore, just through this magic, the Mingjiao has recruited a large number of believers.
When the "Mingjiao" performed this method, they blew a special kind of xun. Therefore, people knew that the "Mingjiao" was good at using xun to summon souls. Even the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were convinced of this.
Therefore, after the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, and even after the death of princes and ministers, they would find people from the Ming religion to make a "Xun stone tablet" for them. It is said that this kind of stone tablet has a magical function, that is, when the wind blows,
It will blow a sound like a xun, and this sound can summon the souls and give the dead the possibility of resurrection.
As for whether it can be resurrected, it is unknown, but in the tombs with this kind of "Xun Stone Stele", the corpses inside will not rot. During archeology, this situation has been discovered more than once - the corpses in the tombs are not at all rotten.
It is not rotten, but once exposed to the air, within a few minutes, the body will turn black and carbonize quickly.
What is certain is that all the tombs with "Xun Stone Stele" are from the Ming Dynasty. Such tombs would not appear in the previous and subsequent dynasties, and the tomb owners who can have such "Xun Stone Stele" all have different identities.
It's so famous, but ordinary people can't afford to build such a tomb."
After Old Man Yuan's explanation, we knew what this "Xun Stone Stele" was. If it was really what Old Man Yuan said, then this should be a tomb, and it was an ancient tomb from the Ming Dynasty. But how could this be possible?
?
Because we all know that the space under the crater is actually Xuanheng and Zhu Leting's refuge, not a tomb at all. So what is going on with this 'Xun Stone Stele'?
My cousin suddenly said: "There is a possibility that this 'Xun Stone Stele', in addition to leading to the space under the crater, also leads to another ancient tomb of the Ming Dynasty, and that ancient tomb of the Ming Dynasty should be Zhang
Liangchen's. We can know from history books that Zhang Liangchen liked to practice immortality and Buddhism all his life, and while he was still alive, he spent a lot of money to build a tomb for himself.
Therefore, it is impossible that he did not know about the popular 'Xun Stone Stele' at that time, and he probably used it on his own tomb, hoping that this method could bring him back to life or immortality."
"Does the inside of this boulder lead to two places? In fact, this is a good proof. If we dig down along this boulder, we should be able to see where it leads."
Xiao Lei suggested.
After listening to Xiao Lei's suggestion, his cousin nodded and said with emotion: "Xiao Lei is right, let's try this method because time is tight now, Professor Shan's life or death is uncertain, and Xuan Heng's
The situation is probably extremely critical, and we can't wait any longer. As long as there is a little clue, we will seize it and chase it to the end."
Just do it. Xiao Lei and I took turns using the engineering shovel. After digging for forty or fifty minutes, a strange scene appeared - at the bottom of the stone, two separate holes appeared, and these two holes were in the shape of
It's round, and it's a very regular round. You can tell at a glance that it was built artificially.
The cousin suddenly said excitedly: "As long as we dig out these two holes, we won't worry about Zhang Liangchen not coming out. Judging from various signs now, Zhang Liangchen is also afraid of light. As soon as it's daytime, they will dig them out."
The space is enclosed, and they seem to only be active at night.
Not only are they afraid of the sunlight during the day, but more importantly, they are afraid of the yang energy during the day - during the day, there is a strong yang energy, and at night there is night air. Even people who are completely blind can distinguish it with their noses.
Whether it is day or night depends on the difference between Yang Qi and night Qi.
Now that we expose these entrances, the yin and yang energy in Zhang Liangchen's space will be completely disordered, and in that case, he will not be able to stay in it peacefully."
We can understand what our cousin said. When the crack opened and the sun shone inside, we knew from the screams that inside, besides Xuan Heng and the others, there were also
There may be some weird monsters, and those monsters have completely adapted to the environment inside. Once the sunlight enters, the yin and yang energy inside will immediately become disordered, and the impact on those monsters may be fatal.
