The years when I was Captain Jin

Chapter 281: Finding Dragons and Acupuncture Points!

Seeing that the old blind man was confident, we jumped off the wall one after another.Putting away the flying claw hook, he asked the old blind man what was going on.

Where did those strange children's laughter come from?

What is the iron pipe stuffed in the hole in the wall for?
The old blind man shook his head at us mysteriously, then lay down all over, with his ears pressed to the ground, as if he was listening carefully to the movement from the ground.

"Ding Dong, what the hell is this old blind man doing? He's lying on the ground with his legs up in the air, like a wild bastard." The fat man asked puzzled.

"Shh!" I made a silent gesture: "Don't interrupt, Elder Gui must have discovered something."

My guess was right, a few minutes later the old blind man stood up slowly, and then glanced at the long-legged sister Yu.

The long-legged sister Yu immediately understood, and ordered her two men in black suits to respectfully pat the dust off the old blind man's clothes.

Seeing the old blind man's condescending appearance, the fat man became angry: "Bah! It's a fucking mischief. When the fat man gets rich, he will find a lot of chicks to serve me. One will feed me, one will wash my feet, and the other will dress me up." clothing."

When the dust on the old blind man's body was almost covered, the long-legged sister Yu asked with a smile: "Old Ghost, do you already know where the sound came from?"

"Well." The old blind man nodded: "I will tell you a story, and you will understand. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there was a country called Zheng State, and the emperor of Zheng State was named Zheng Zhuanggong. According to legend, Zheng Zhuanggong's mother helped outsiders to rebel. He wanted to seize the throne of Duke Zheng Zhuang. As a result, Duke Zhuang Zheng was wise and powerful, and soon suppressed all the rebels! Because he was angry with his mother for participating in the rebellion, he imprisoned his mother and swore a poisonous oath: I will never meet again until I reach Jiuyou .”

"In ancient times, Jiuyou meant the underworld. Zheng Zhuanggong's words showed his determination not to have any contact with his mother! But a year later, Zheng Zhuanggong regretted it. After all, she was his own mother, and her blood was thicker than water, but the ancients valued the oath very much, and Zheng Zhuanggong did not dare to easily violate the poisonous oath he made, so he asked the ministers for advice on how to let him see his mother? The ministers racked their brains and finally came up with a plan The clever plan is to dig three feet of ground in his mother's residence to represent Jiuyou, and it is reasonable to arrange for Zheng Zhuanggong to meet his mother underground. Since then, the mother has been reunited, which is the allusion of 'digging the ground to meet the mother'."

After listening to the story told by the old blind man, I was the first to react, and read the sentence on the big iron gate again: "The key of the dark sound must be under the Nine Netherworld! Old ghost, do you mean to say , the place where the sound came out, and the key to open the door, are actually hidden underground, but we always mistakenly thought that Jiuyou was the eighteenth level of hell, so we didn't think about it..."

"Good boy, you can get it right." The old blind man looked at me appreciatively and said.

It's just that his half-blind eyes are so terrifying that I quickly turned my head away in fright.

"Old Gui, are you going to come up with ideas next?" Sister Long-legged Yu asked.

"Well, as long as you know the sound is underground, it's easy to handle. Even if it hides in the crevices, the old man is confident to find it out."

The old blind man let out a strange laugh: "Hehe, I haven't been in the field for several years, so I don't know if my skills are rusty?"

After speaking, the old blind man took off the package on his back, and took out four branches and a large bundle of red rope from it.

But I saw that he carefully inserted the branches into the soil in four directions, east, west, north, south, and then connected the four branches with red strings to form a rhombus formation.

This scene looks like the Taoist priests in Hong Kong movies, nothing unusual.

But the fat man secretly told me that this old blind man is not simple, the depth of every branch he inserts is the same, exactly.What's more, the red ropes are all tied with mandarin duck knots, which can't be done without decades of kung fu.

The most important thing is that the branches that the old blind man took should be peachwood branches, and the peachwood branches are paired with red strings, either to drive away ghosts, or to seek dragon acupuncture points!

The old blind man was obviously looking for a dragon's acupuncture point.

Hearing what Fatty said, I was instantly curious!After all, I haven't really seen Tu Fuzi's Xunlong acupuncture point, so I put all my energy into watching the old blind man's every move.

I saw the old blind man bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood on the red line after setting up the formation. The blood seemed to be alive and rolled forward along the red rope, and the speed was getting faster and faster. faster and faster!
Finally, when it rolled to one-third of the distance from the end of the red rope, it seemed to be frozen, and fell into the soil with a ticking sound, and was quickly absorbed by the soil.

Seeing this scene, the old blind man shouted excitedly: "Luoyang shovel!"

The long-legged sister Yu who was standing behind immediately took out three steel pipes and a shovel head from her backpack, put them together with lightning speed, and threw them at the old blind man.

As soon as the old blind man caught it, without even thinking about it, he plunged the Luoyang shovel into the place where the drop of blood disappeared just now.

"One shovel breaks off the dragon's head, two shovels remove the keel's bones, three shovels cut off the dragon's tail, and four shovels fix the universe." The old blind man chanted while struggling to insert Luoyang shovel deep into the soil. They were all swollen with blood, and they were obviously using a lot of strength to do this.

With a Luoyang shovel and a few doggerel-like formulas, can you really find out what's underground?
I am skeptical.

But soon I heard a muffled 'boom' from under my feet, and at the same time the Luoyang shovel that the old blind man had inserted down also stopped, as if it had hit something metal.

The old blind man breathed a sigh of relief, and then pulled out the Luoyang shovel. I suddenly saw a blood-red soil with a strange smell on the front end of the Luoyang shovel.

That piece of soil was so red, it felt like I had been soaked in blood for three days and three nights.

Also, the smell of the soil is quite unpleasant, not stinky, but a fishy smell, as smelly as a weasel squatting on the ground and urinating.

Looking at this piece of soil, the long-legged sister Yu's coquettish smile froze in an instant, and she asked suspiciously: "Old Ghost, is there such a thing under the ground?"

"Stop talking nonsense, even Lord Yan has to dig it out, otherwise we will be trapped here..." The old blind man walked back with his hands behind his back, and gave the long-legged elder sister a gloomy look.

Long-legged sister Yu had no choice but to let her two men in black suits hold engineering shovels and dig down along the point set by the old blind man.

The old blind man’s point was quite deep, and the two of them dug too slowly, so the fat man Wang Yuanchao and I joined their camp and started digging in full swing.

To be honest, my curiosity is greater than my fear now, I really want to see what is in this soil?
Why is there blood in the soil, and why is the long-legged sister Yu so sad.

The excavated soil quickly formed a hill beside us. We dug down another two or three meters, and the thing that the old blind man Luoyang shovel had just hit appeared in front of us. It turned out to be a huge mouthful. coffin!

The volume of this coffin is almost twice the size of the coffins we usually see.The surface is dark and swarthy, with several circles of iron chains wrapped around it.The surrounding soil was all wet, and the extremely bright red sticking to the coffin gave off a pungent smell.

I tapped it cautiously with my fingers, and the coffin made a crisp thumping sound, which should be made of cast iron.

Of course, what surprised us the most was that the coffin was buried vertically.

What the hell is going on? I have studied ancient history for so many years, and I have only seen people buried lying down, but I have never seen people buried vertically. I really learned a lot today!
