Tomb Robbery: Successor to the King, starting in Yunnan Worm Valley

Chapter 404 The Legend of Zhong Kui
  The local climate is cold and dry, which is not suitable for moss to grow.

And there is something wrong with the Feng Shui pattern.

The place where the soldiers are trapped and killed is basically a plain with no obstruction on all sides. The resentment is rampant and will not converge to a certain point.

Of course, just because there is no bone soul moss, it does not mean that there are no other evil things in that place.

Since ancient times, the ancient battlefield has been one of the most evil places.

Skeleton Soul Moss alone is a very powerful hallucinogenic drug.

It is the material for performing illusions.

At the same time, this thing also has a very strange effect, it can summon spirits.

Together with a special blood salt mine in the mine near Qingxi, as well as rhino horn powder from Babel rhinoceros, musk from Lingmusk deer and other materials, a very special item can be prepared.

Soul-inducing fragrance.

This soul-attracting incense is extremely powerful and can attract all nearby Yin souls.

As for its use, it's generally nothing serious.

Some are used to refine magic weapons, and some are used to harm others.

There is a record of soul-inducing incense in the "Book of Wu Salt Pills" that Wang Ye found in a hanging coffin.

Unless this kind of thing is some evil cultivator, otherwise, it won't have any special effect.

But Wang Ye is useful.

Wang Ye can gain experience points by killing things like Yin Ling Yin Hun.

Although Wang Ye has plenty of energy now.

But the more the merrier.

The other thing is that Xu Lan should be able to put these Yin spirits and ghosts into the Yin Soldier Tiger Talisman.

The Yin Soldier Tiger Talisman now contains countless blood swallows, as well as the ghosts of the Dian Kingdom's Imperial Guards, the Eighteen Yi Shamans, and the South China Sea Mermaid Warriors.

Wang Ye doesn't mind adding some new combat power to his Yin Soldier Tiger Talisman.

As for other things, the ghosts can also be refined and condensed into other essence materials and the like.

Although this kind of operation makes Wang Ye look very close to an evil cultivator.

But Wang Ye didn't care at all.

Just be strong and that's all.

Especially when faced with the threat of the ancient gods.

Wang Ye was not idle and inspected all the coffins that Fatty Wang had kicked open one by one.

As long as a complete skull is found, they will be opened one by one and the bones and soul moss will be taken out.

Soon a steady stream of system prompts began to come.

Wang Ye also collected more than a dozen pieces of bone soul moss in one breath.

It's just that this action scared the girl.

No matter how courageous my sister is, she has never seen anyone kicking open the coffin boards, then knocking on the skulls one by one, and then taking out something from the inside.

The tacit understanding between Fatty Wang and Wang Yezhiwen and their skillful movements made it look like they were doing something similar for the first time.

Meimei'er's face turned even whiter.

At this time, Wang Ye finished collecting the bones and soul moss, straightened up, looked behind him, and saw Yao Meier staring at him with a look of horror.

Then he grinned, revealing his white teeth, and a pure and sincere smile appeared on his face.

Mo Mei'er finally couldn't hold it back anymore, turned around and threw herself at Staff Yang.

Staff Yang was shocked.

Wang Ye was confused, scratched his head, and looked at Staff Yang, "I didn't scare her on purpose this time. She was so scared that she didn't care about my affairs."

Shirley Yang also shook her head helplessly.

ㄠMy sister has to continue to adapt.

At this moment, Fatty Wang's shout came from the front. “Cousin, Lao Hu, come and take a look, I really found something good.”

As Fatty Wang shouted, several people rushed towards Fatty Wang at the same time.

When he arrived and took a look, Wang Ye couldn't help but laugh.

It's really good stuff.

There are two huge red-painted coffins.

Although they are inside a mass grave and the feng shui is not good, after countless years, the red paint on the outside of these coffins is still blood red and has not faded at all.

Not only is the coffin covered in bright red paint, there are also circles of iron chains.

Wang Ye's experience is that those who have iron chains wrapped around their coffins will not die peacefully.

The people who buried them were definitely afraid that these people would come out of the coffins after death and want to talk to someone in depth.

It doesn't matter whether the person who emerges from the cracks in the coffin is a human or a spirit, whether it is alive, dead or half-dead, it doesn't matter.

Only then did the chain wrap around several times.

Normally, there should be supporting measures inside the coffin, such as seven-star soul-suppressing nails and the like.

If Longhu Mountain in Maoshan has risen in later generations, you may still see some corpse-killing charms and the like inside the coffin.

I just don’t know if it’s rotten or not.

These big red coffins also have some edges traced with gold lines.

There are even exquisite patterns inlaid with mother-of-pearl in some places.

The so-called mother-of-pearl is a layer of shell with a pearlescent effect that has been peeled off.

Because it has a certain degree of flexibility, it can be cut into special shapes.

Then collage them together to form various patterns.

It is mainly used for inlaying on lacquerware. There is a special craft called mother-of-pearl craft.

It’s just that the cost of this thing is very high and labor-intensive, and the finished product is indeed beautiful.

Regardless of whether it was produced at the time or later in the antique market, mother-of-pearl inlaid lacquerware, as long as it is in good condition, is priced astronomically.

Although the coffin inlaid with mother-of-pearl cannot be moved out, it is obviously not the coffin of an ordinary slave craftsman.

It is very likely that some nobles in the prisoner houses or the original officials made mistakes, which led to this end.

All in all, it’s full of expectations.

After digging for so long, it’s time for something to come out of the coffin.

Just when everyone got closer, they discovered that the other side of the coffin actually had some paintings on it.

The patterns on the paintings are also quite high-energy.

A ferocious big ghost is tearing and devouring the little ghost.

The little ghost has been torn in half by the big ghost.
  Half of it is in the hand, and the other half is chewing in the mouth.

Looking at the picture, it feels a bit like eating roast chicken.

The scene was very bloody and cruel.

This is a bit much.

Wang Ye stopped Fatty Wang and Hu Bayi who were about to step forward to open the coffin.

The painted pictures on this coffin are obviously also used to ward off evil spirits.

The theme is Zhong Kui eating ghosts.

Now comes the problem.

When was Zhong Kui born?
  Zhong Kui is from the Tang Dynasty!
  The legends and beliefs about Zhong Kui, including the fact that Zhong Kui later became a military judge, became a symbol of catching ghosts, and became a god of ten thousand heroes, all happened later.

It was not until the Yuan and Ming Dynasties that it became a deep-rooted concept.

When did Wuling Yishan King come from?
  According to the previous inferences of Professor Sun Shirley Yang and Wang Ye, it is possible that the Han Dynasty is at the latest and the last three generations at the earliest!
  The difference is less than a thousand years.
