Origin Chapter 768: Fengducheng
"Where?" Wang Xinran asked.
"This is probably the legendary ghost town." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"What ghost town?" Wang Xinran was puzzled.
"Fengdu, have you never heard of Fengdu, the ghost town," Wu Zhongyuan said, "You work in the 18th Bureau, but you don't know about the ghost town Fengdu?"
Wang Xinran contemptuously pouted, "I am an officer of the 18th Bureau, not a Taoist priest who subdues demons and catches ghosts."
Between the two of them talking, there was a sudden and strange laughter from below.
The incident happened suddenly, and both of them froze in their hearts. The weird and weird laughter had not stopped, and more weird laughter appeared. In a flash, the entire abandoned city was filled with this kind of eerie and weird laughter.
"It's okay, it's an owl." Wu Zhongyuan patted Wang Xinran's shoulder,
Wang Xinran also guessed that it was an owl, but in the middle of the night, he suddenly heard this gloomy and weird smile, and it was a full-fledged weird smile.
Those who are frightened will be angry when they come back to their senses, and Wang Xinran is no exception. She came out with a rifle this time. Seeing the strange laughs kept coming, she slammed her shoulders to unload the rifle, pulled the bolt and loaded it. , opened the insurance and swept the shuttle below, "What is the ghost called!"
The sudden sound of gunfire alarmed the owls that were dormant in the ruins, and a large number of owls fluttered from all over the city screaming.
These owls are not the same as the common owls. The common owls are yellow-gray, and these owls are all black and white. After they fly, they do not go far. They hover over the ruins of the city, densely packed. ,countless.
"What the hell." Wang Xinran swung his rifle and smashed an owl that approached by mistake.
"You're right, this is a ghost place." Wu Zhongyuan extended the fire spirit energy while speaking, and condensed a huge fireball from the air, and turned to support it with aura energy, making it shine brightly and dazzlingly. The light of the moment illuminates the vicinity as bright as day.
These owls are very afraid of light, and when the fire flashes, they scream and fly away.
"Let's go, go down and have a look." Wu Zhongyuan led Wang Xinran down to the ground.
The ground is full of thorns and shrubs, and there is almost no place to stand, but before the two landed, the thorns and vines below began to extend and disappear, gradually revealing the soil and rocks below.
Wang Xinran knew that this was what Wu Zhongyuan did, but she was still in shock. After landing, she looked around, "How did you do it?"
"Everything in the world is transformed from breath. The higher the spiritual qi cultivation level, the stronger the ability to control breath." Wu Zhongyuan said casually, he is now doing two things with one mind, while releasing aura to replenish the fireball hanging in the air, On the one hand, the qi sends out the liver meridian, and the surrounding thorns and vines are decomposed by induction.
Fear mainly comes from the unknown. The darkness will aggravate the unknown, so many people are afraid of the dark. In addition, this area is covered with thorns and trees, making people wonder what is hiding underneath, which will also increase the fear. When the surrounding light is as bright as day, and the thorns and vines are gone, and you have a thorough understanding of the surrounding situation, the terror will naturally decrease.
"Those owls were much bigger than ordinary owls just now." Wang Xinran held the gun in his hand and looked around.
Wu Zhongyuan said casually, "There's something wrong with the angle of your observation. You shouldn't pay attention to their size, but their coat color. Have you seen black and white owls before?"
Wang Xinran shook his head, "No."
"Not only have you not seen it, but I have not seen it either," Wu Zhongyuan said, "You should have heard the legend of the owl called Huner. In Taoism, the owl is the night owl, the messenger of the underworld, and the goddess of the underworld. Bad job."
"These owls are related to the impermanence of black and white?" Wang Xinran guessed.
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "I don't know very well. It may be the original character of the black and white impermanence in later generations, or it may be the subordinate of the black and white impermanence. This is impossible to determine. However, it is very strange for them to stay in this area. You found that No, there is not a mouse, there are no snakes, and there are very few small bugs around, since there is no food, why do they gather here?"
When Wu Zhongyuan spoke, the surrounding thorns and vines had been disappearing rapidly, and more and more ground was revealed. Without the covering, it was clearer to see. This is a large city, and the city was built. The individual stones are very large, and some flat slates can be clearly seen on the ground that is not covered by soil. However, because the age is too long, the city has been severely weathered, and most of the buildings in the city have collapsed.
"How long can you keep the big fireball in the sky?" Wang Xinran looked up.
"At least three months." Wu Zhongyuan laughed.
Hearing Wu Zhongyuan say this, Wang Xinran was relieved. Wu Zhongyuan was her husband, and she didn't need to pretend to be fearless in front of Wu Zhongyuan. "This place is really wrong, and I'm very flustered."
"It's normal. The human body has the instinct to seek good luck and avoid evil. After you enter Taixuan, your senses are sharper than before, and your perception of bad breath is stronger. The yin here is very heavy, so you feel depressed." Wu Zhongyuan said.
Wang Xinran nodded and asked, "Is this really the legendary Fengdu City?"
"It should be," Wu Zhongyuan said. "If I didn't guess wrong, this is probably the location of the capital before the ghost clan was sealed, similar to the bear city of the human clan."
At this time, all the thorns and vines within a hundred meters around the two had disappeared, and Wu Zhongyuan did not continue to expand outwards, but walked towards a huge stone pillar not far away.
The stone pillar is black. After thousands of years of wind and sun, the top of the stone pillar has been weathered and deformed. The stone pillar should have been engraved with graphics, but now it is completely invisible.
"Hey, what do you think it looks like?" Wu Zhongyuan smiled and looked at the stone pillar, "Nature is really amazing."
Wang Xinran glanced at Wu Zhongyuan, "What is this place, why do you still think about it?"
"It doesn't matter where I am here, it matters what kind of talent I am." Wu Zhongyuan turned to the central area of the city, "Let's go and do business."
"Do you know the exact location of that ancient tomb?" Wang Xinran has an occupational disease, so he would always look around with a gun before he could catch up with Wu Zhongyuan.
Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "Yes, the debit note records are correct, that place is in the center of the city, but it should not be an ancient tomb, but a secret room."
“How do you know?” Wang Xinran asked.
"I guess," Wu Zhongyuan said, "that place may be the place where Zisu retreated, or the place where he hid his treasures in a golden house, and no matter what it is, it can't be an ancient tomb, because the ghost prince is the uppermost place. Yuan Xiuwei, who has the incarnation of Yuan Ying, is immortal, he does not need a tomb, nor does he need to prepare a tomb for himself."
"It makes sense," Wang Xinran nodded and shook his head suddenly, "but that's not right. The people from Leper Ridge took a few funeral items from there."
"The place in the basement is the burial?" Wu Zhongyuan asked with a smile.
Wang Xinran didn't answer, and turned around again to look back, "Why do I always feel that there is something behind me?"
"There is a big cave behind the statue of the owl," Wu Zhongyuan said. "The strong yin here is emanating from there."
Wang Xinran doesn't like to ask questions, but she can't help but wonder, "What's in the cave?"
"I don't know," Wu Zhongyuan said. "Go to the underground Taoyuan first, and then go to the cave."
The two of them are walking on the main road of the city. There are many human-shaped stone figurines lying down around the main road. These human-shaped stone figurines are all bent over to bear weight. There is a semi-circular depression behind them. It can be seen that what he is carrying should be a pot-like vessel, most likely a metal brazier, which is used for lighting at night. The reason why the brazier is not seen is because metal vessels cannot be preserved in the open air. year.
While Wu Zhongyuan stopped to look at the figurines, Wang Xinran was on guard with a gun and looked around.
Seeing how nervous she was, Wu Zhongyuan said casually, "It's okay, although there is a lot of yin here and there are a lot of owls, there is no danger here. back."
Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Wang Xinran relaxed a little, "Those tomb robbers are powerful enough to find them here."
"They rely on this to eat, and they only specialize in art," Wu Zhongyuan said. "In addition, the tomb robbers are not looking for a specific tomb. They all know Kanyu, and they know where the feng shui is good, and our country's Kanyu Fengshui The theory has been finalized a long time ago, and the criteria for judging the quality of feng shui have not changed. Five thousand years ago, it was good feng shui, and after 5,000 years, it will still be good. After ten thousand years, countless people have died, Zhang San is not buried here, Li Si may be buried here, so they basically do not fail."
Wang Xinran suddenly realized, and turned to ask, "How do you know this?"
Wu Zhongyuan put aside the stone figurines and continued to walk towards the center of the city, "You are not attentive in class, and you always play games. The teachers I mentioned have already mentioned them in class."
"Not in the book." Wang Xinran said.
“These things are suspected of feudal superstition, and they cannot appear in textbooks openly and aboveboard, but teachers will talk about them,” Wu Zhongyuan said. “If we who study archaeology don’t understand these things, how can we rob cultural relics from tomb robbers? But our country’s The principle of cultural relic protection is very conservative. Unless rescue excavation is carried out, the tomb will not be opened actively. This is very passive. We are worried that the buried cultural relics will not be properly preserved after active excavation. Archaeologists are basically wiping their bottoms for tomb robbers and picking up the leftovers they stole.”
Wang Xinran nodded, "Yes, legal education needs to be strengthened, and the national quality needs to be improved."
"It's not entirely a question of quality," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "In the final analysis, life is better. There is a saying in the archaeological world, 'Golden antiques in prosperous times,' only when life is better can people have the heart to collect. It's a precarious and chaotic world, people prefer gold, and that's hard currency."
Between the two of them talking, they came to the central area of the city. This is where the main roads in the city converge. There is a circular pool. The second is the shape of Yin-Yang Taiji. The pool is not deep, and the water level is not more than one meter. However, the pool is already dry at this time, and only the jade used for decoration at the bottom of the pool is left.
At this time, people have begun to use jade, but jade cannot be exchanged. It is more used for sacrificial utensils. If it is put into modern times, these colorful jades alone are already invaluable.
These jade stones are evenly distributed at the bottom of the pool. Wu Zhongyuan waved his right hand lightly, removed a piece of jade stone on the right side, turned his palm over, and lifted two of the stone slabs, revealing a dark robbery hole...
