The years of reselling the haunted house

Chapter 37 Human Bone Wind Chimes
I asked, "What did you guess?"

Ma Di said: "Remember what I just said about this auxiliary star: the auxiliary star is Fu Hu Kaiyang, so the success of Zuo Dou is also the image of the prime minister. The seven political stars are bright, their country is prosperous, and the auxiliary star is bright, then Chen Qiang. I originally thought that the person buried in this auxiliary star position must be a person who is familiar with celestial phenomena and geomantic omen. He wants his descendants to have the image of a general. And the words on this stone slab just illustrate this a little."

"Who is buried here?"

Ma Su touched the stone slab, followed the inscription on it, and said, "This man is called Wu Baozhang."

"Wu Baozhang, I've never heard of this name before."

Ma Di nodded and said: "You definitely don't know him, but his patriarch is very famous, that is, Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi who was in Yunnan at that time. This Wu Baozhang was Wu Sangui's retainer. He was very popular and made great contributions to Wu Sangui. But this person He lived a low-key life and was a retainer, so many historical books and classics did not record it. Later, during the San Francisco Rebellion, Wu Baozhang was ordered to go to Guangdong to contact King Shang Kexi of Pingnan. Later, this person was very good at assessing the situation and participated in admonishing him after he arrived in Guangdong. Shang Kexi persisted in his allegiance to the Qing Dynasty, and used the small land of Guangdong to contain more than [-] rebels who could not go north wholeheartedly, creating favorable conditions for the Qing government to counter the rebellion. Afterwards, he did not return to Yunnan, but stayed in Guangdong. King Pingnan knew He was very talented and successful in admonishing him, so he was appointed to supervise Xin'an County, which is now the area around Shenzhen. He was also conscientious, although his official position was not large, he also had considerable political achievements. Later Wu Baozhang died in Guangdong and was buried In the place of office. To be precise, in the tomb where we are now."

After listening to Ma Di's introduction, I understand a little bit.At that time, the third uncle said that the geomantic omen here is a situation where eight snakes encircle the dragon, and in the eight coffins are the vicious criminals who were buried alive, so it is deduced that the person who takes a fancy to the geomantic omen here must be a big man.Now the identity of the owner of the tomb has become clear. Although Wu Baozhang is not a shocking big shot, his status is not low, and he has been an official here for many years, so he has the ability.It must be that he has been by Wu Sangui's side for many years and has seen the world.I also want my descendants to be prosperous, so I chose a geomantic treasure land, and it is also a dragon vein.But because the dragon is an evil dragon, a Feng Shui master was found to counteract the evil wind and water of the evil dragon by wrapping the dragon with eight pythons.

In fact, I am not very interested in the identity of the owner of the tomb, and I came here only to find out the whereabouts of Third Uncle and Liang Yue.Hearing Ma Su say that this tomb called Kaiyangxing may have a tomb called Fuxing next to it, he was impatient to find it.

Ma Di pointed to the stone slab on the ground and said, "If my judgment is correct, there should be a passage leading to another tomb under this stone slab."

What Ma Di said was so convincing, I half-believed and squatted down to lift the stone slab.

The stone slab was not very thick, and when I exerted all my strength, I opened a gap in the stone slab.A gust of cold wind suddenly came out along the gap, which made me shiver.

In this underground tomb, it was already very gloomy and cold, and my body was always uncomfortable.But the coldness under the stone slab is even more intensified, as if the bottom and top of the stone slab are two completely different spaces.That stone slab is more like a barrier separating the two spaces.

However, it turns out that Ma Di's deduction is completely correct.There really is a dark passage below.Through the light above, it can be seen that a passage spirals downward.The cold wind was blowing up from below.

I glanced at Ma Di, and Ma Di nodded at me.It seems that everything is under his control.

I completely removed the stone slab, held the mahogany sword and a lamp, and walked down the passage first.

The passage spiraled downward, and it was also dug artificially.About three or four meters down, another tomb appeared in front of me.

But at this moment, a flute sounded suddenly.

The sound of the flute heard this time is different from usual. The sound of the flute I heard before always feels like there is something in the middle, which seems very hollow.But this time it felt very close, like it was blowing in my ear.

When we heard the reputation, the scene almost scared me to pee.

I saw that on one wall of this tomb, densely hung corpses.

It's just that among these corpses, there are a few mummified corpses, and a few corpses that haven't completely decomposed. They should have been dead for a few years.And Chen Wanli, who once attacked me and Liang Yue, and the female corpse were also hung in it.

No wonder we came to the underground parking lot again and were not attacked by them again. It turned out that they were hung here.

What's even more bizarre is that in front of the wall of corpses, there is a string of wind chimes that sway with the wind.I was just wondering why there were wind chimes hanging here, but after a closer look, I found that what hung there looked like a string of wind chimes at first glance, but they were actually human calf bones.

Looking at the ancient corpses on the wall, they all lacked a leg bone.

That human bone wind chime was actually made of the calf bones from those ancient corpses.With the wind blowing, the human bone wind chime made a whining flute sound.

The sound of the flute sounds breathtaking, although it is only a few leg bones, it makes people daunting and dare not move forward.

This is the human bone flute.

Ma Di saw the human bone flute that he had always wanted to see, and forgot his fear for a moment. After shouting, he rushed to the front of the human bone wind chime and looked up at the string of bone flutes.

I never expected that this human bone flute was not blown by a human, but hung here and made its own sound.Then the sound of the flute is too weird, this is a confined space, where does the wind come from?

It is estimated that Ma Di also thought of this, looking at the direction in which the wind chime swayed, and at the same time looked upwind of the wind chime.

Only then did we discover that the tomb is a gourd-shaped tomb, and the tomb with the wind chimes is a small one, separated by a narrow passage, and there is a larger one.

And the wind that blows the human bone wind chimes came from that tomb.

We traced this step by step from the underground parking lot, and each new discovery made our hearts hang.Fortunately, the third uncle and Liang Yue were not found on the corpse wall just now, who knows what other discoveries will be made next.

I gritted my teeth, and before Ma Di could speak, I held up a lamp and walked towards the other tomb.

Ma Di also followed, and we walked through the narrow passage to the inside of the big tomb.

There are many ancient asphalt lamps around the tomb, but because the passage is too narrow, most of the light is blocked, so we didn't notice this tomb just now.

In the middle of the tomb, there is a coffin.

Originally, it was not uncommon to find a coffin in the tomb. What is more unusual is that the shape of this coffin is different.

Normal coffins are one big at one end and small at the other end, and their basic shapes are almost the same.

But what appeared here turned out to be a turtle coffin.

The reason why it is called the turtle coffin is because the coffin is carried by a wooden turtle.The coffin seemed to be integrated with the wooden tortoise. The bottom of the coffin fit perfectly with the back of the wooden tortoise, and there was no visible gap. Obviously, the two were carved together.

We were amazed not only by the special shape of the coffin, but also by the craftsman's craftsmanship.

The wooden turtle moved forward with its head held high, pointing its head towards the direction of the passage. It looked vivid and lifelike.

I looked at the strange tortoise coffin, which was quite strange, so I said, "Could it be that Wu Baozhang is in this coffin? Why is there a turtle under the coffin?"

Ma Su glanced at me and said, "Xiao Li, you still need to study more. Ignorance is not scary, but blatant nonsense is scary."

"Old horse, what do you mean? Am I wrong?" I asked.

Professor Guai patiently explained to me: "This is not called a tortoise, it is called Bixi. It is one of the nine sons of the dragon in ancient Han mythology, also known as Baxia. It is shaped like a tortoise and is easy to bear. So we often use it in temples and ancestral halls. Or the cemetery saw it supporting a stele. This stele is of great cultural significance. It symbolizes longevity and auspiciousness, and also has status levels. Totem worship or witchcraft worship in some places.”

"Isn't that right? You're talking about the stele, so it's obviously a coffin, okay?" I waved my hand and said.

"This kind of turtle coffin has appeared several times in history. When this kind of turtle coffin was unearthed, there was an extremely rare severe drought at that time. This is also recorded in ancient books, but I don't know if it is related to this It is related to the excavation of the tortoise coffin. Besides, does this tomb look like a temple?"

Hearing what Ma Di said, I looked around the tomb.

This time, I discovered the difference again. The tomb was artificially decorated as a temple.

On the walls of the tomb, there are inlaid stone slabs, and many murals are carved on the stone slabs.There are incense burners and ancient tripods piled up below.

I walked over and found some incense ash in the incense burner. Judging by the color of the incense ash, it should not be a long time before burning incense.

I became more and more confused, and I knew in my heart that I couldn't figure out these things.I looked at Ma Su, hoping he could give me a perfect explanation.

Ma Su opened his mouth to speak, but suddenly heard a sound coming from the tortoise coffin.

I was shocked, lest I heard wrong.Immediately afterwards, there was another sound, as if something inside accidentally hit the coffin.

At this time, a gust of sinister wind suddenly blew out from the mouth of the bearer's coffin, the wind was very strong and extremely cold.At the same time, the human bone wind chime in front of the corpse wall also rang out a breathtaking flute sound.

The source was found, and it turned out that the person who played the human bone flute was Bixi who carried the coffin.

But no matter how vivid this Bixi is, it is a wood carving after all, so how could it be possible to blow the wind?

Ma Di waved his hand: "No, Weird should be in this coffin. Come on, let's open this coffin and see what happened."
