My master is invincible

Chapter 1109 Human Skin Coffin (Final Chapter Part [-])
The story Ge Hongchen told me was not too long. It was said that during the Southern Ming Dynasty, there was a famous general named Li Dingguo who fought against the Qing Dynasty. His achievements can only be described in eight words. , In the end, Bing Mopanshan.

There are two reasons for Li Dingguo's defeat. The first is that the Nanming Emperor was weak and incompetent at the time, but he liked to provoke internal affairs. In addition, there was a group of princes and ministers who only gambled and often made trouble. The second was Li Dingguo's general Sun Kewang. The rebellion eventually led to Li Dingguo's defeat.

Speaking of Sun Kewang, he is the protagonist of the human skin coffin. After he rebelled, Li Dingguo sent assassins to assassinate him many times. If you say that Sun Kewang is also a talent, he escaped many assassinations. Wanting to follow Cao Cao's example of "holding the emperor to order the princes", he planned to use the then Nanming emperor to subdue Li Dingguo.

After a series of military deployments, Sun Kewang succeeded and was named King of Qin.

As the saying goes, people, once fame and wealth are added to their bodies, they will inevitably swell, and this Sun Kewang is no exception, and he insulted the Emperor Yongli at that time. The most excessive thing is that this Sun Kewang once skinned Yongli alive The human skin of one of the emperor's concubines was finally made into a quilt.

This Emperor Yongli was incompetent, but he still had counselors under his command, so he sent someone with a secret edict to escort Li Dingguo, who had already been defeated at that time, and this result directly led to the "Prison of the Eighteenth Gentlemen".

When he said this, Ge Hongchen paused, glanced at us, and sighed: "Xiao Jiu, if you guessed correctly, you must think that the skin coffin contains 11 people under Sun Kewang, right?"

I hummed, based on my speculation with You Tianming, the skin coffin should be filled with eleven skinners under Sun Kewang, but Ge Hongchen's tone seemed wrong, so I asked him: "Could it be someone else?" ?”

He nodded, "This human skin coffin contains the 18 gentlemen who were wronged back then. There are 18 people in total. They were all Confucian scholars and scholars back then. If these [-] people hadn't been killed back then, it would have been the turn of the Manchu Tartars to enter the customs." , the Great Ming Dynasty will not both be ruined here."

After he finished speaking, he seemed to remember something sad, walked to the side of the human skin coffin, touched the coffin lid lightly, and muttered: "My ancestor was one of Sun Kewang's skinners back then, and he knew he had committed a serious crime. As a reward, they made such a human skin coffin, and ordered Mr. Shiba’s bones to be moved into the human skin coffin, so as to comfort Mr. Shiba’s spirit in heaven.”

I was slightly taken aback, and asked him: "The human skin coffin hurts Tianhe. I'm afraid that your ancestor's behavior will not comfort Mr. Shiba, and I'm afraid it will make Mr. Shiba get angry."

He nodded, "It's true that ordinary human skin coffins are like this, but don't forget, there is a formation in this human skin coffin. My ancestors meant that they voluntarily use their lives to be driven by Mister Eighteen, to put it bluntly. The point is that my ancestors were willing to give Mr. Shiba a slave to pay off their sins."

After speaking, he looked over at me, "Xiao Jiu, do you have any questions?"

I thought about it for a while, it's clear that this human skin coffin was explained by him, but there is one thing that I still can't understand, that is, how could Yang Dalong's family have something to do with this human skin coffin?

I asked out my doubts.

After hearing this, he glanced at the human skin coffin and asked me, "Do you think the human skin is enough for one person in such a big coffin?"

As soon as I heard it, I immediately said, "Not enough."

After all, this human skin coffin is much larger than ordinary coffins, and one human skin is definitely not enough.

Wait, did he mean….

Immediately, I quickly asked him: "You mean the human skin in this human skin coffin is not the ancestor, there are other people?"

He nodded, "Yes, there are three people in total, all under Sun Kewang's subordinates, one is my ancestor Ge Anmin, one is surnamed Yang, Yang Taiping, and the other is surnamed Wu, I don't know the exact name .”

As he spoke, he picked up the incense from the side, lit it, and inserted it around the human skin coffin, then knelt down, with his forehead pressed against the ground, and muttered a lot of words in his mouth, basically, he made atonement for his ancestors, let Mr. Shiba rested peacefully in the human skin coffin.

And You Tianming and I stood on the sidelines looking at Ge Hongchen, and my heart was quite complicated. I had imagined many endings, and even thought that the reason why Ge Hongchen appeared here should be to use the human skin coffin to achieve ulterior motives. the goal of.

However, judging from the current situation, it looks like atonement.

After being stunned for a while, I asked You Tianming, "Tianming, do you think what he said is true or false?"

He didn't speak, and kept staring at Ge Hongchen until Ge Hongchen stood up, then You Tianming immediately approached and asked, "Director Ge, there is one more thing that I really don't understand. According to your old saying, This human skin coffin is made of three people's skins, why did Yang Dalong and his family not die."

As soon as these words came out, all of us looked at Ge Hongchen, this question was too important, especially Yang Dalong's eyes were fixed on Ge Hongchen.

Seeing that all of us were staring at him, Ge Hongchen gave a wry smile, his face darkened, and he said softly: "I was born in a big family, and some cousins ​​and cousins ​​add up to nearly a hundred people! Now only The little old man is alone."

Upon hearing this, I immediately understood that he meant that similar things had happened in his family, in other words, what Yang Dalong is going through now, Ge Hongchen had also gone through before.

In this way, that is to say, this so-called human skin coffin is a curse, even if there is no Baojiaxian, Yang Dalong and his family will die?

I shared my thoughts with Ge Hongchen.

He nodded and said: "Human skin, human skin, where does the skin of the immortal come from? When the three ancestors put their own human skin on this coffin, they expected what happened today. Fortunately, God is gracious and left us The only seedling can be regarded as a generation of descendants."

Hearing this, the one who reacted the most was Yang Dalong, there was no way around it, he was the biggest victim in the human skin coffin this time, so he yelled hysterically, "Why!"

That Ge Hongchen patted him on the shoulder, and said in a low voice: "Little brother, it has been preordained in the dark that you and my ancestors did such immoral things like skinning people back then, so it is right to suffer this retribution."

Hearing what he said, Yang Dalong's complexion suddenly sank, and he stared at the human skin coffin with red eyes, seeing that his posture was about to smash the human skin coffin.

I said badly to myself, and was about to stop him, when I saw Yang Dalong pick up a stone from the ground and throw it at the human skin coffin.

"Don't!" I shouted, and hurriedly ran towards Yang Dalong.

Before I could run in front of him, a figure appeared beside the human skin coffin, it was Ge Hongchen, he grabbed Yang Dalong's arm, and said in a low voice: "Little brother, destiny cannot be violated, accept your fate!"

Frankly speaking, it's not good for anyone if this happened to anyone. If it's someone who can't bear it, he probably would have collapsed a long time ago, and Yang Dalong may have no feelings for his relatives, which is why he broke out now.

"I don't know what destiny is, I just know that my ancestors made mistakes, why should we bear it for descendants, we are innocent, and we didn't skin people!" Yang Dalong struggled a few times and roared angrily.

"The blessings accumulated by the ancestors will be enjoyed by the descendants, and the mistakes made by the ancestors will be suffered by the descendants. This has been the definition since ancient times. How can ordinary people like you and me change it." Ge Hongchen said calmly.

Seeing this, You Tianming, Fatty Guo and I were stunned by the side, and it was not easy to come forward. To put it bluntly, the three of us are outsiders, so it is not easy to participate, and they are the only ones involved.

Afterwards, Ge Hongchen roughly explained some truths to Yang Dalong, basically to make Yang Dalong look down on it, while You Tianming and I took advantage of this time to circle around the human skin coffin, thinking about how to lift the human skin later The coffin was buried.

About a little later, Ge Hongchen finally persuaded Yang Dalong, and led Yang Dalong to our side, "Xiao Jiu, how do you think the best way to carry this human skin coffin?"

I thought, this human skin coffin contains the bones of Mr. Eighteenth, although it is just some bones, it should not be particularly heavy, but in the end, this human skin coffin is different from ordinary coffins, and the method of carrying the coffin is also very particular. The first is the limitation of the number of people, the second is the mutual restraint of the zodiac signs, the third is the excessive evil spirit, and the fourth is the distance of moving the grave.

When I thought of these questions, my face darkened, and I said, "I'm afraid this human skin coffin is not easy to carry!"
