The Mystery of Jianwen Chapter 40: Surrounding

"What did you find?" At this time, Qin Ge also walked to the statue with the mortar pistol.

"Not yet..." Zhang Guozhong and Lao Liu looked through the gaps in the jade clothes and found that the statue seemed to be solid, with tight slits around his body that seemed to have no gaps or secret doors. "It's weird, iron tools block the sun, put on an iron statue with jade clothes. What's the hell is this?" Lao Liu straightened up and took two steps back. It was nothing special when he looked horizontally and vertically.

"Under normal circumstances, we all take this approach..." Qin Ge held his pistol behind his back, reached out and pulled out the dagger from the boot, and cut it from top to the next to the bottom along the gap of the jade clothes at the back of the statue. Then he gently pulled it with his hand, and the whole jade clothes was taken off like "taking off his clothes". Many scattered jade pieces fell into the water as they took off.

"Master Qin...you..." Old Liu was also stunned. Jade-clothing has always been a national treasure. Qin Ge is known as an archaeologist all day long and specializes in ancient jade. How could he be so useless to treat the treasure?

"This jade dress has no research value!" Qin Ge shook his head, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, lowered his head and dipped it in some water to wipe the statue. "There was no custom of wearing jade dress in the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, this is not a tomb. This jade dress is not a burial object, nor a ritual instrument, nor a handicraft, but a special prop for this ceremony! What is really worth studying is the statue inside the jade dress!" As he spoke, Qin Ge had wiped the floating soil on the surface of the statue, and saw a vivid nude statue of an iron man standing in the water. The size and proportions were no different from that of ordinary people. He was naked all over his body, his muscle texture was realistic and delicate, and the carving was as simple as Michelangelo's "David" statue.

"Is this a damn statue of Zhu Yunwen?" Old Liu was also surprised to see this vivid iron statue, "Is this thing standing here for the purpose of suppressing ghosts?" According to the traditional Taoist theory, which is the theory mentioned in the allusion of "Yang Fuweizhu", if the resentment died at the hands of someone or was subdued by someone, not only would he be afraid of real people, but the things he used, statues, even portraits and even copies of these things will become the objects of fear of the resentment. If Zhao Jinzhou was really suppressed by Zhu Yunwen, putting his statue here does have the effect of suppressing ghosts, but what does it mean to wear jade clothes on the statue?

"It shouldn't be used to suppress ghosts! Look here!" Among the three people in front of him, Zhang Guozhong had the best eyes. When Qin Ge first wiped the statue with a handkerchief, Zhang Guozhong found that the surface of the statue seemed to have some small holes, which were thicker than the needle hole, just like a bronze man with acupuncture, with both chest and back. At first, Zhang Guozhong thought that the statue was corroded by the moisture in the cave for many years, but after Qin Ge wiped the whole body of the statue, Zhang Guozhong found that these tiny holes seemed not as simple as "corrosion". "Look at these small eyes on the statue!"

"Hmm?" Old Liu lowered his head and came to his front and found that there were indeed many small holes on the statue, which looked like a bronze man with acupuncture, but at least half of these small holes were not acupuncture points. "What are these eyes for? A bronze man with acupuncture?"

"Could it be..." Zhang Guozhong moved his heart and reached out to touch the top of the iron statue's head, "Sure enough! Senior brother, these are the Yin and Yang veins! Come and touch!"

After hearing what Zhang Guozhong said, Old Liu hurriedly reached his hand to the top of the iron statue, and felt that at the "Huiting" pulse of the iron statue, there was a hole about the same thickness as a straw for drinking soda, with a diameter that was obviously much larger than the small eyes on his body.

"Senior Brother! The seven veins inside this statue are connected!" Zhang Guozhong gasped and carefully checked the front, chest and back of the iron statue. Sure enough, the small hole at the "seven veins" on the statue was obviously thicker than the small holes in other conventional acupoints. "Is it just the ashes?" Standing up, Zhang Guozhong suddenly remembered the stone bed outside that seemed to have burned animal corpses. "Senior Brother, I understand! This is what you mentioned in the 'Hundred Steps Resurrection Array'! I know the so-called principle of becoming an immortal!"

"Oh?" Old Liu frowned, "Tell me!"

"Zhu Yunwen has indeed become an immortal here!" Zhang Guozhong frowned, "Do you remember what 'Baizhang Pond' is used to 'ejaculate evil' outside? The function of that pool is not 'ejaculate evil' at all, but to let Zhu Yunwen leave the escape passage of this cold bone cave after he ascended to mortality!"

In people's impression or ancient legends, if a person becomes an immortal, he usually takes a glorious image of auspicious clouds or rides a crane and a crane, and rides a crane and a radiant body. However, if strictly defined by the Taoist theory, the standard for becoming an immortal is not a crane and a unicorn or a radiant light, but the color of the soul through the eyes of wisdom.

In the eyes of wisdom, the evil spirit is blue or blue, the yang energy is yellow or orange-red, the ordinary soul should be white or milky white, the soul with yin energy is gray, and a few with deep resentment are black. However, according to legend, there is also a kind of soul that appears purple or pink purple, which is the legendary "becoming an immortal".

Perhaps because of coincidence, it is said that before Lao Tzu passed Hangu Pass, Yin Xi saw purple qi coming from the east and knew that a saint would pass. As expected, Lao Tzu came riding a green ox. From then on, purple was regarded as a holy immortal by the Taoist sect. After some Taoist masters were transformed into, their souls often showed this completely contrary to common sense. According to legend, when the Quanzhen ancestor Wang Chongyang was transformed, his disciple Qiu Chuji once saw the purple qi of the ancestor's immortal body stacking in his wise eyes. After that, Chongyangzi's body did not rot, which was a sign of becoming an immortal. Similar legends or records were not difficult to find in other sects. The existing theories of Taoism cannot explain these phenomena, so they can only be attributed to "becoming an immortal". This is probably also the core standard for the masters and masters of the Northern Song Dynasty to judge Zhao Guanshan's theory of "Ten Ages Immortals". That is to say, Zhao Guanshan may also make the soul of a commoner appear "purple".

According to Zhang Guozhong's inference, Zhao Guanshan's method of experimenting with "Ten Virtues to Be Immortals" should be like this. First, find a cave similar to "Cold Bone Cave". The soul cannot get out, but can cruise freely in the cave. Then, burn the body of the corpse in the cave. Although the soul has resentment, it cannot get out of the cave, so it can only attach to the ashes.

Then, cast an iron statue according to the shape of the deceased's life, just like the iron statue in the cold bone cave at the moment, with a vivid shape. A hollow pipe should be reserved inside the iron statue. The path of this pipe is roughly the same as the path of the seven veins in the human body. Then, the ashes are poured into the iron statue through the hole at the "Huiding Vein" on the top of the iron statue, filling the "seven veins" pipes inside the iron statue. Although the ironware is separated by Yin and Yang, the holes at the seven veins are connected to the outside world. The soul will mistake the iron statue for its own corpse, and perform a series of natural procedures such as resurrection through these holes. The jade cloak on the iron statue is likely to be used to neutralize the resentment caused by the "fire burning of the corpse".

In addition, the water and rushes in the cave also play an important role. According to the analysis of Mr. Ma Sijia back then, rushes have the function of conveying yin and resentment. The rushes all over the mountains and the underground lakes in the cave are tantamount to forming a natural yin and yang circulation network, which is very similar to the "Seven Passes and Seven Paths" in nature. According to Zhao Guanshan's theory of "Ten Virtues to Be Immortals", the soul must complete ten reincarnation and wandering the seven levels in the narrow Yin and Yang network of bronze man, water and rushes. If it is an artificial seven levels and seven levels, it is easy to be discovered by the soul (only evil ghosts have no IQ. Since "Ten Virtues to Be Immortals", the soul is definitely not an evil ghost, so the IQ is much higher than that of the evil ghosts). Compared to setting up a formation in an artificial array, this almost natural yin and yang network is closer to nature, and has better blindness to the soul and will not be discovered.

"This should be the formation of the 'Hundred Steps Resurrection Formation'. The formation is set up to make the soul be reincarnated ten times and achieve the goodness of ten generations! After that, the soul appears purple qi, and it will become an immortal!" Zhang Guozhong said, "We think that the secret passages used to 'relieve evil spirits' and the 'Baizhang Pool' are the 'back door' for the soul to become an immortal!"

"After becoming an immortal, I'm still going to the 'back door'?" Qin Ge smiled slightly.

"Are you as smart as your soul?" Old Liu said, "This cave is Labawen. Even if you become an immortal, you can't get out. You can only go through the 'back door'!"

"Didn't it mean that there is another Zhao Jinzhou in the cave?" Qin Ge said, "What if he 'goed out' through the back door?"

"Are you thinking that Zhao Jinzhou is as smart as you?" Old Liu looked disdainful, "The more evil ghost you are, the more stupid you are. After becoming an immortal, you will definitely be much smarter than the evil ghost. The immortal spirit can find the exit, but the evil ghost cannot find it!"

"President Zhang, I don't understand. Since this is Zhu Yunwen's place to become an immortal, why should Zhao Jinzhou's body be put in? Is this also part of becoming an immortal?" Qin Ge still seemed to be puzzled, "Also, what is the motive for Zhu Yunwen to become an immortal? Such a huge project is not like what he, an incognito wanted criminal, has the ability to do, who is helping him behind the scenes? Or, if there is really someone here who becomes an immortal, the person who becomes an immortal is not Zhu Yunwen?"

"This..." Zhang Guozhong seemed a little confused, "I haven't thought about it yet..."

"President Zhang, I think the matter of cycai has nothing to do with here..." Qin Ge checked the iron statue, and there seemed to be no words or patterns carved on the surface of the iron statue. "The Huang Xian said in the poem that 'the place where the Jianwen returns to hide the mystery', but if Zhu Yunwen really became an immortal and left here, this would not be his 'place'!"

"Not necessarily!" said Old Liu, "What people are saying is clearly hiding 'mystery', not 'corpse', that is, the corpse is not here, but the clue is likely to be here!"

"This place has been isolated from the world for a hundred years. The matter of Cycad is not long ago!" Qin Ge said, "How could there be a clue about this in the cave hundreds of years ago?"

Just when the two were arguing, there was a rush at the entrance of the cave. With this sound, the searchlight went out instantly, and only three flashlights were left in the dark hole.

"Who!" Zhang Guozhong and Lao Liu's first reaction was to draw out the sword. Qin Ge also raised the 1.5mm caliber M500 mortar. Three flashlights instantly shot towards the entrance of the hole. The big hand Liu stood foolishly, as if searching everywhere.

"Brother Liu, what's going on?" Old Liu walked carefully to the entrance of the cave with his head crossing the Seven-Star Sword. He saw that the searchlight on the ground had been smashed to pieces. It was obvious that the effect could only be smashed if the hammer with a force of at least 18 pounds was swung around.

"I...I don't know either..." Big Hand Liu sweated heavily, "I just look at you, I don't know why it's like this..."

"It's Zhao Jinzhou!" Qin Ge couldn't help but pick up the 1.5mm caliber mortar in his hand. Old Liutou and Zhang Guozhong also fired flashlights up and down, left and right.

"Do not!" At this moment, Big Hand Liu suddenly shouted, stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Guozhong's clothes and threw them away. Zhang Guozhong was not prepared for Big Hand Liu. After this throw, he felt that his body lost its center of gravity instantly. He flew out three or four meters in a flash and then fell to the ground with a thud.

"Brother Liu, you..." Zhang Guozhong struggled to turn over and shone with a flashlight, and was so scared that he was sweating all over. He saw a dark shadow standing at the place where he was standing just now. If it weren't for the big hand Liu throwing him out just now, he would probably have been caught by this grandfather.

"Be careful!" Qin Ge aimed at the gun and slowly retreated. Old Liu also made a gesture to meet the enemy and kept retreating. Only the big hand Liu stood there and did not move.

"Brother Liu, back!" Zhang Guozhong rolled and stood up, calmed down and looked at it. He saw that the resentful body was covered with a layer of torn linen, and the linen was not wrapped around like a mummy, but covered one by one. "This is not Zhao Jinzhou! There is something else in this hole!"

"Could it be..." Qin Ge was stunned when he heard Zhang Guozhong say this. After handing the pistol to one hand, he took out the signal gun, and shot a illumination pop-up. Under the strong light, everyone was completely stunned. He saw several black shadows standing in groups of three or three. The black shadows were of different heights, fat and thin, as if they were covered with rags, but they didn't see the "human core" that Zhang Guozhong mentioned, which was suspected to be Zhao Jinzhou.

"Damn it, not only Zhao Jinzhou, but also his family is here..." Old Liu's sweat also came down, "Brother Liu, you get out of the hole first! Hurry!"

"Oh!" Big Hand Liu nodded. As soon as he turned around and wanted to drill into the hole, he saw a black shadow falling from the sky and standing in front of him. He felt someone suddenly appear in front of him. Big Hand Liu raised his head and saw that the person on the opposite side was like a skinned rabbit, with no trace of skin on his body. "Oh my god!" It was so sudden that this time, even Big Hand Liu couldn't help but take a few steps back. It didn't matter if he retreated, and he just stepped back into the arms of the black grandfather just now...

"Dangerous!" Seeing that the big hand Liu Li was still half a meter away, Qin Ge raised his gun and glanced at the resentful head, and he was thumping it. If we say that the 1.5mm caliber bullet was not a joke, the "flame" of the muzzle was as big as a basketball. The entire cave was like a flash. The bullet was shot up at a 60-degree angle and directly hit the rock wall at the top of the cave. "Master Qin... where are you aiming?" When Qin Ge fired, Old Liu, who was standing on the side of Qin Ge, couldn't help but lower his head. He felt that the landing point of the bullet seemed to be on top of his head.

"Ah...!" With the sound of this gunshot, Qin Ge took a quick step back and almost sat on the ground. He threw the gun, covering his wrist and grinned and almost shouted. To be honest, although Qin Ge had full confidence in his marksmanship, he really underestimated the huge recoil of this pistol. Qin Ge had used many large-caliber pistols before, among which the most recoil was the famous "Desert Eagle", which also had a 1.5mm caliber. I thought that this gun would not be more recoil than the "Desert Eagle" in any case. Unexpectedly, the recoil of this M500 is really greater than that of the "Desert Eagle". It is not a little bit larger than that of the "Desert Eagle" when it is larger, and it is at least twice as big. It almost broke the wrist directly.

To be honest, Big Hand Liu is not far from the resentment behind him. Qin Ge's shot scared Big Hand Liu to take two steps back and leaned against the arms of the black grandfather behind him with a bang.

"Brother Liu!" Old Liu wanted to step forward, but the fireball when Qin Ge shot him shook his eyes. As soon as he recovered his vision, he saw that Liu had retreated to the arms of resentfulness. Without saying a word, he stepped forward and waved the seven-star sword in his hand. He looked at the black grandfather's neck in front of him. He felt that the sword seemed to be chopped on the tire of the car, and it was bounced back. The shock of Old Liu's head was almost leaving his hand. When he saw that he could not cut, Old Liu simply turned his wrist to change from chopping to stab. As a result, the sharp tip of the sword pierced the body of resentfulness, just like stabbing into a pile of firewood. He puffed in a large piece. When the sword was pulled back, the place where he stabbed it quickly returned to the original, just like not stabbing.

To be honest, Old Liu was also shocked at this moment. He was a seven-star sword in his hand. He cut gold and cut jade evil to suppress demons. The flagship work of Ou Yezi, the ancestor of the swordsman, was the treasure of Li Yuan, the Tang Dynasty. He could not cut the iron-locked corpse in the "Cai Pool" back then. He was understandable. He was covered with iron nets and could not even penetrate the bullets. Now this thing is obviously a layer of rag on his body, so he could not cut it.

At this moment, I saw the resentful whirl open my arms and hugging Dashou Liu. This time, Dashou Liu was also stunned. His body subconsciously struggled, and felt that his whole body seemed to be clamped by an iron gate. He could not move at all. "Do not!" At this moment, Dashou Liu was also anxious, and screamed with a loud scream. The blue veins on his cheeks jumped high, but he could not break free.
