Holy Bone

Chapter 246 Nine Dragons Pull the Coffin
"This sound of water, could it be that the goddess of water is coming?"

In the silent darkness, everyone, you look at me, and I look at you.

Then everyone followed the steps and went up the stairs.

But halfway through the journey, a dead end appeared in front of him. The suspension bridge that originally led to the huge platform in front of him had already rotted and broken due to disrepair.

The broken rope dangled several boards, along the bottomless cliff, hanging against the cliff wall to the depths of the cliff, standing on the edge of the cliff and looking down, the end of the broken rope could not be seen.

Fortunately, Jin An, Du Wei, and Monk Kong Ming are not ordinary people, they are all masters in the martial arts.

Monk Kongming, the master of the Arhat Hall of Bailong Temple, took the initiative to ask for Ying at this time. He grabbed a rope, turned over with a kite, and borrowed the strength of the ladder in the air to reach the opposite bank smoothly.

And find a protruding rock and tie the rope.

Then, the mourner, the old Taoist priest, and the country witch, who don't know martial arts, climbed along the rope to the opposite bank one after another.

Then came the sword cutting, the abbot of the Bailong Temple, and the monk Hongzhao of the Bailong Temple.

Because Jin An and Captain Du are martial arts practitioners, they are physically strong, and they can come and go to the opposite bank freely without the use of ropes, so they are responsible for staying behind and taking care of the safety of the ropes, and they are the last to reach the opposite bank.

Seeing that everyone else had reached the other side safely, just when Jin An was about to leave for the other side, he suddenly asked the captain: "Captain, how did the 'Xuecun hidden corpse case' end?"

The captain, who was about to leave for the other side, looked solemnly at Jin An's words, and looked at the old Taoist priest who was being supported and comforted by the mourning brothers on the other side because of his fear of heights.

Next, the captain told an unexpected truth.

"Actually, the villager named Zhuangzi has never been to any snow village at all. The so-called snow village is Qilitun. Qilitun is a tricky snow village that only appears in snow disaster years after the entire village is dead."

"The village woman Chen Daochang met in the village that night was a dead ghost from Qilitun. The ghost deliberately went out of the mountain to lead Taoist priests into the mountain to harm people. The weasel skin is no longer enough to eat ordinary people, and its appetite is getting bigger and bigger. Instead, eat monks and Taoist priests who have practiced, when the government officials found Xuecun, a dozen corpses of Taoist priests, monks, and Mr. Xuanshu who were missing in the local area were found in Xuecun."

"No one knows how Chen Daochang escaped from Xuecun. I only heard that when Chen Daochang ran to the yamen to report the crime, he was covered in blood and was seriously injured. My friend who served in the army in the north said that the local yamen found the state government The garrison, a large number of troops braved the heavy snow to enter the mountain to find the snow village, there was no living person in the snow village, all were snowmen, and those who died were frozen in the snowman with their corpses hidden, and the snow was covered more and more by the heavy snowflakes in the sky. thick."

"That day, the fire burned for seven days and seven nights, and all the surrounding pine forests were cut down, and the snow village was completely burned down."

The final result was really unexpected.

Jin An was taken aback.

Like the captain, he couldn't help looking curiously at the old Taoist priest who hadn't recovered from his fear of heights and who was being supported and comforted by the mourners and brothers, who looked exactly like an ordinary little old man.

If that snow village was really a village of the dead born out of resentment, the experience of the old Taoist in the snow village might not be as simple as what he said just now.

Perhaps the unfinished story of the old Taoist is the real key to Xuecun...

Jin An planned to find an opportunity to ask the old Taoist priest how he escaped from Snow Village after the matter in the tomb was settled.
Next, Jin An and Du Wei came to the other side smoothly.

Seeing Jin An coming, the old Taoist said hello to Jin An, but his legs and feet were still trembling uncontrollably.

If you have never experienced climbing on a hanging cliff, with the whistling wind in your ears, and looking down at the pitch-black cliff, you will not be able to experience the strong urge to let go of your hands and jump from a high place when you are afraid of heights.

"Old Taoist, are you okay, do you want to rest first? So that your soul can catch up with your body?" Jin An asked the old Taoist concerned.

The old Taoist priest is also stubborn, with the stubbornness of a little old man who refuses to admit defeat in front of young people, he forcefully said that he is fine, and there is no need to take special care of him. It took too long for everyone to go down to the Yinyi River. , Get out of the tomb early, go ashore early.

Afterwards, a group of people began to cautiously approach the high platform.

...tick tock...

...tick tock...

The sound of dripping water still echoed in the darkness.

The frequency is very low.

Drips very slowly.

Fortunately, the mausoleum was only half built, and it wasn't completely finished, and there were no institutions encountered along the way.Or even if there is an agency, it hasn't been arranged yet.After walking through a section of steps, everyone finally stepped onto the high platform in peace.

Under the light of ten torches.

Jin An and the others finally saw clearly what the so-called coffin was.

This high platform occupies a large area, and above their heads, nine coffins are hung by heavy bronze chains. Each of the nine coffins is different, forming a circle above their heads.

The order is: Prison Niu, Yazi, Xiaofeng, Pulao, Suān (Suān) Ni, Baxia, Biyan (àn), Negative Xie (xì), Chi (chī) Kiss.

"This is the life of all the nine sons of the dragon?"

The old Taoist looked at the nine coffins hanging above his head, raised his head and said in amazement.

"What does it mean that the coffins of the nine sons of the dragon are placed in the mausoleum of the Lord Tengguo? It means that the Lord Tengguo brought his nine most beloved sons to resurrect from Huangquan Road together?"

The old Taoist guessed.

It can be seen that the high platform has not been built yet, because many stone piers can be seen on the high platform, but there are only thick stone piers, but no stone pillars.

In the end, everyone's eyes were attracted by the pool in the center of the platform.

"This is the depths of the mausoleum, and there is a pond here. Could it be that this pond is the Hualong pond mentioned in the false tomb?"

"Then the person buried in the Hualongchi should be the Teng Kingdom Lord from thousands of years ago?"

The old Taoist approached with a torch.

The old Taoist's conjecture is not groundless.

Because there is a thick and heavy bronze chain, connected to the sky and grounded, connecting the pool in front of the eyes with the nine coffins above the head.

At this time, everyone held torches in their hands, and they all gathered around the Hualong Pond in the center of the platform.

I saw that the water in the pool was pitch black, and I couldn't see what was under there, but there was no smell of corpses as I imagined, but a faint fragrance.

It's like the fragrance of agarwood.

Just when everyone was watching in amazement.

Tick ​​tock!

In the nine coffins hanging above the head, corpse oil flowed out from the coffins, and then gathered in the middle along the bronze chain, and finally along the bronze chain that was hanging straight down, dripped into the water in front of Jin'an and the others. In the pool.

face this scene.

Several people present were startled.

Everyone looked at each other in dismay. Facing this strange scene, they fell into silence for a while, and finally the country witch tentatively said a word: "My old woman, why do I look at the scene in front of me, it's a bit like a feng shui bureau in a yin house? "

Anyone who has a little knowledge of Fengshui knows that a dragonfly touches water in a Fengshui yin house, which is a treasured place of Fengshui, the cave of wealth and wealth for dragons and tigers.

If you touch the water, it is natural to let the coffin get wet.

It is the treasure land of geomantic omen in the yin house.

Without water, can that be called superficial water?

"Old Taoist, you are the one with the highest level of Feng Shui attainment here, and professional matters have to be answered by professional people. Tell me, is this in front of us a superficial bureau in the yin house?" Jin An looked at the old Taoist priest beside him.

At this moment, the old Taoist priest had a serious expression on his face.

"Little brother, this superficial situation is very evil, old man, why do I feel like my eyelids are twitching all the time, the dragon has nine sons..."

"The heart of the Teng Kingdom Lord is really vicious. It is not enough to kill one son for his own selfish desires, and he has to take nine sons to be buried with him. No wonder the Teng Kingdom Lord has no successors. After the Teng Kingdom Lord died Soon the country will perish, which is called karmic retribution."

"Old Daoist, I understand why there are coffins of the nine sons of the Lord Teng Kingdom here."

"The ruler of the Teng Kingdom is selfish. He never thought that he would bring his own heirs back to life after his death. He is using the dragon to give birth to nine sons to create a bigger feng shui situation than a dragonfly. The yin qi corpse oil of his nine sons who died without melting, nourished his yin body after death day and night. In the end, the cathode yang was born, and a trace of yang qi was born in the corpse, thereby resurrecting. This Teng Kingdom The king had no intention of resurrecting his son at all, but just wanted to be alone, sacrificed his nine sons, and used the lives of his nine sons to feed him back, so that he would be resurrected a thousand years after his death."

"Everyone should still remember the senior Taoist master who failed to dispel the corpse, right? The stone ox that carried his stone coffin is still on the Fucheng square." The old Taoist suddenly mentioned the matter of dissolving the corpse. .

Everyone did not interrupt the old Taoist priest.

Let the old Taoist continue to speak.

The old Taoist continued: "Old Taoist, I suspect that when he was alive, the Lord of Teng Kingdom must have searched for Taoist priests all over the world, just like the kings of all dynasties, and wanted to refine the immortality pill. Although the illusory immortality pill was not found by him He found it, otherwise he would not have died in this cold mausoleum in the end, but he found another shortcut to longevity, probably because he met some Taoist master or accidentally found the ruins of a Taoist master's cave, From this, I learned about the anti-day art that can bring people back to life. However, the Lord of Teng Kingdom is not a Taoist, but the ruler of a secular vassal state. Until one day, he was whimsical and came up with another method to replace the dead corpse, which is the dragon's nine sons in front of him!"

"In the extreme yin, a trace of extreme yang variable is born, so as to be resurrected by the yang. This kind of corpse dissection fairy that has been changed beyond recognition can barely be regarded as a combination of corpse dissection and hydrolysis."

"It is estimated that the art of dismantling the corpse has been changed beyond recognition, so the Lord of the Teng Kingdom has been lying in the mausoleum for a thousand years, but he has not been able to return the sun."

"Otherwise, according to the normal method of dissolving the corpse, as long as you survive the various natural disasters and man-made disasters that destroyed the corpse during the 300-year period brought about by the catastrophe, you will be able to successfully change your life against the sky and come back to life smoothly."

That's what the old Taoist said.

After thinking about it in their hearts, Jin An and the others felt that the more they thought about it, the more reasonable it became.

"Fortunately, the feng shui pattern here is not fully arranged, and it is also fortunate that the Lord of Teng Kingdom did not get the real technique of dissolving corpses, and he has not been resurrected after lying in the mausoleum for a thousand years. Otherwise, the world will not be transformed for another thousand years. If you help the evil spirits, your lives will be ruined." The old Taoist said with a sigh, showing a rejoicing expression.

"Brother, after listening to Chen Daochang's words, why do I feel that it is right for us not to rob the tomb and continue to keep the body of the Lord of Teng Kingdom intact? We are going to Xiayin Yijiang to eliminate the Dragon King, but we are helping the evildoers?"

The younger brother of the mourner suddenly took his elder brother's hand quietly, and said secretly.

The elder brother of the mourner glared at his younger brother: "We are not thieves. We are called teachers of justice! When the sky falls, there is a tall man standing there! The two of you quietly get closer to General Duwei, let the tall man stand up to you if you have something to do!"

The two mourners secretly communicated in private.

just.

The tomb was quiet, except for the two of them talking, no one spoke. The furtive conversation between the mourners and brothers was very clear in the quiet ancient tomb, and it was actually not much different from the normal volume.The mourners thought they were talking secretly, and everyone had heard them clearly.

Including the Captain.

However, the captain ignored the mourners for the time being. Seeing that people's hearts were fluctuating at the moment, he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, I said in the fake tomb above that the Dragon King was used by the imperial court's Fengshui master with four dry bone stakes." Crucified to death under the Yinyi River, even if he wants to dive into the dragon and ascend to the sky, or want to make troubles, he can only be stranded in the shallows, half dead, and his strength is greatly compromised."

"If you are worried about the Dragon King, or the thousand-year-old cultivation of the Teng Kingdom Lord, you don't have to be overly cautious. As the saying goes, the evil does not suppress the good, and the devil is as high as one foot and the road is as high as one foot. I don't believe it. The root stake is nailed to the bottom of the Yinyi River, how much wind and waves can the dragon king stir up the wind and rain? If it is really powerful, it would have broken out of the prison long ago, why bother to stranded under a mere Yinyi River! "

"We have gone through so much along the way, and now we have finally found the coffin of the Lord of Teng Kingdom. Seeing that success is imminent, don't you all think that all your previous efforts will be wasted and retreat before the battle?"

In fact, there is no need for the captain to say much, so many people died along the way, and everyone who has come here is naturally a person with a firm heart.

No one would choose to go back at a time like this.

Next, everyone began to study, how to get out the coffin of the Lord of Teng Kingdom in Hualongchi?
Finally, after carefully observing the high platform, I found that if I want to get the coffin, I have to rely on the nine coffins hanging above the head to use the Kowloon to pull the coffin.

For the nine coffins of "the dragon gave birth to nine sons, each of which is different", a bronze chain hangs down from each coffin and is nailed straight into the dark rocky ground.

They only need to cut off the nine bronze chains, and the nine coffins will fall. With the help of the downward force, they can drag out the coffin of the Lord of Teng who is hidden in Hualongchi.

Just do it.

Jin An and Captain Du personally went to chop the bronze chains that bound the nine coffins.

sulfuric acid!
sulfuric acid!
sulfuric acid!
The nine coffins above the head, which were originally static and suspended, have maintained a thousand years of calm, and the balanced bronze chains have been broken one by one. In this empty and dark huge underground cave world, the bronze chains rattled and rattled violently.

As one heavy coffin after another was cut off the bronze chains, the coffins descended, and the straight bronze chain hidden in the Hualong Pond collapsed straight as if it was tied to some heavy giant.

Afterwards, a huge black shadow began to rise slowly in Hualongchi...

sulfuric acid!sulfuric acid!
As more and more bronze chains were cut off, the speed at which the huge black shadow under Hualong Pond emerged from the water accelerated, and the expressions on the faces of the people standing far away also became dignified, and they began to be alert to the darkness around them.

Logically speaking, before them, the ferryman from hell and the mysterious expert who reminded them all the way passed through the underground palace first and descended into this underground cave.But until now, I haven't seen any of these people!

Boom!
Boom!
……

With the heavy bang, the first to hit the ground heavily and kick up the dust were the nine coffins of the "nine sons of the dragon" that were originally hanging above the heads of the crowd.And as the nine old coffins hit the ground heavily, it was as if ten people in Jin'an had been hit hard on the heart nine times, and their breathing was tight.
