Part 6 The South China Sea Returns to the Ruins Chapter 44 The South China Sea Zombies


I am mentally sleepy and physically exhausted now, and I feel a headache just thinking about these complicated I Ching hexagrams, but the "Zhen" hexagram seems to contain a major secret closely related to "Return to the Ruins".

Just when I was thinking hard and couldn't figure it out, Shiry Yang suddenly asked me: "I don't know much about Yi Dao, but I have read the works of a Chinese scholar in the United States.

He is a famous expert in the study of Yi studies.

He has very unique views.

He once When it comes to the hexagrams in Yizhong, anything that contains numbers The words do not come out of thin air.

They contain ancient encrypted information that many people today cannot understand.

There are words in this hexagram that shock Baili.

Old Hu, do you know why the hexagram is not ninety-nine miles and one hundred and one miles. , or use thousands of miles, but it is shocking to say hundreds of miles."

Shiry Yang accidentally mentioned something that I had never thought of before.

Yi contains all things, and the endless changes of everything in the world are contained in it, but very few people can understand it thoroughly.

One person can never see everything.

As long as someone has been exposed to the Book of Changes, everyone will have their own understanding of the Book of Changes.

In the eyes of philosophers, it contains philosophy, and in the eyes of mystics, it is a book.

It is a heavenly book that predicts changes in the situation.

A benevolent person calls it benevolence, and a wise person calls it wisdom.

So far, the world's analysis of the Yi Jing is only a glimpse of the leopard.

Therefore, Shiry Yang said that all sentences with "numbers" in Yi Zhong are not derived out of thin air.

In the "Zhen Gua", the words "Shocked and stunned, the smiles and speeches are dumb.

Shocked for hundreds of miles, but not lost" is a special reference, but I don't know why there is such a saying as "shocked for hundreds of miles".

If this is It’s just a description of a phenomenon, why not use “shock thousands of miles” or “shock thousands of miles” Shiry Yang said that since our salvage team went out to sea on Coral Temple Island, we have seen several antiquities related to the "Zhen Gua".

These times we have seen antiquities related to the "Zhen Gua" in coffins, tombs, or scaled human turtles.

On the divination bone armor, it seems that the recurring hexagram "Zhen Gua" is related to the underworld in the ruins.

It has a lot to do with the matter, that is to say, it may not be a sign obtained by divination, but a mark for the burying of the bones by the Hentian people, or a hint hidden in the Hentian family's tomb, and among these marks and symbols, it represents The symbol "hundred" in the hexagram is particularly prominent.

Seeing it many times, people have to question it.

I scratched my head and couldn't think of an answer to Shiry Yang's question.

Although she was flexible in thinking and could often see the essence of things directly, only the ancients knew whether the words "shocked Baili" had a specific meaning. .

I heard Zhang Yingchuan say that there was a wizard in his ancestor, Zhang Sanlian, a master of gold school captain.

Mr.

Zhang dug out the sixteen-character Yin-Yang hexagram from an ancient tomb in the Western Zhou Dynasty.

After reading it, he closed the door behind him.

Someone asked him what secrets there were.

Mr.

Zhang shook his head repeatedly and said only one sentence: " Whoever understands the secret may be an immortal."

This means that perhaps only the immortals in the early days can know the true secrets of the sixteen hexagrams of Yin and Yang.

Those sixteen hexagrams can probably only be understood by immortals who can reach the sky.

Even if the eight hexagrams passed down to future generations have been reduced by half, even the most knowledgeable experts dare not say that they can understand them all.

I became a monk halfway.

So I don’t even know what the mystery is behind the language of numbers in Yi.

However, I refused to admit it, and said to Shiry Yang: "The word "hundred" in "Shocking Baili" represents an integer.

Ancient Chinese people were accustomed to using integers as adjectives, such as "a hundred successes with a hundred tricks, a hundred steps to cross the Yang", etc., but no one said Ninety-nine battles, ninety-nine wins, or one hundred and one Walking through the Yang, it seems concise and grand.

This is called micro-words and great meaning.

It does not have any specific meaning.

Who knows how far it will hit if there is thunder in the sky?

In fact, this is just an abstract metaphor, and Americans may prefer it.

Accurate description, that’s why you find it strange.”

Shiry Yang probably felt that what I just said was very reasonable, so he stopped worrying about the "Zhen Gua" on the tortoise shell in the tomb, walked over, and leaned against the snow-white whale bone fossil with others to breathe.

I also sat on the ground to rest, looked at the surrounding environment, and speculated in my mind about the layout of the ancient tomb.

It seemed that all of this matched the totem on the back of "Longhu" Guchai.

Under the sacred tree on the seabed is the ancient corpse of the Hentian clan, which is dead but not stiff.

The Dan people hid the secret of the Hentian clan's ancient tomb in "Longhu".

It must not be to let future generations come to "fight against each other", but the real reason is , I’m afraid no one among the Dan people who are still alive knows it anymore.

I turned my attention to the ancient tree passage we came down.

It seems that this huge "Japanese barbarum tree" has grown here hundreds of millions of years ago.

Later, the sea changed and the forest turned into a vast ocean, and the "Japanese barbarum tree" stayed here.

The sea floor has almost penetrated three layers of the earth's crust.

No wonder that in ancient legends, it was regarded as connected to the Guanghan Palace on the moon.

The Hentian family hollowed out this undersea sacred tree and used the coral cave at the bottom as a tomb.

There is no formal tomb passage or chamber structure in the tomb.

It is surrounded by water seeping from the seabed.

In the water cave below, the vortexes of water flow one after another, and it is unknown how deep it is.

The sound of water rumbling in the distance can be felt from time to time.

It must be the hot spring under Guixu Water.

This water is a hundred times hotter than human hot springs.

Once any living thing is wrapped in boiling water, it will immediately be affected by the high temperature.

Cooked until no bones are left.

On the other side, there were waves of gloomy chill, sucking the sea water above into the void center of the earth.

The location of the ancient tomb is built in the hot and cold world of yin and yang.

It is tightly blocked by the remains of coral reefs and cannot be invaded by hot or cold water.

In the eyes of Feng Shui experts, it is a place that "connects the heaven and the earth, transforming the past and the present."

Immortal Cave".

The tomb is full of vitality, great changes and trends, and is endless, occupying all the miraculous secrets of nature.

While I was observing the terrain, the fat man rested his strength, leaned half of his body into the whale bones, and looked at the ancient corpses.

Uncle Ming also dragged Guchai to the front and asked Guchai to kowtow to his ancestors.

Uncle Ming said, "This is the ancestor of you Dan people.

If our ancestors have spirits, they may be able to help us get back safely."

Guchai didn't know what his ancestors did thousands of years ago, but he was still in awe when he saw the ancient corpse.

He then lay on the ground and kowtowed a few times, clasped his hands together, and following Uncle Ming's actions, the two of them messed around in front of the whale bones.

I prayed a few times.

Fatty asked Uncle Ming: "I told you, uncle, how many ancient corpses have you dug up, sold, dug up, and sold in your life?

How come you are kowtowing and bowing here?

I thought you had to transport these underwater zombies back to sit on the ground and raise prices."

It's a rare thing to live in, but look at your current performance, it really disappoints me, step aside, you old loser."

Uncle Ming said with a sad face: "Don't compare yesterday to today.

Today is already a difficult time.

Now everyone is stuck at the bottom of the sea, and the chance of getting out alive is too slim.

At this time, there is no mood to consider the price of the ancient corpse.

Of course it is now If you worship some god, you may not know which stick of incense will be burned correctly, and we can go back alive, otherwise, fat boy, what else can you do?"

The fat man stuck the fish candle on the ground and said: "In my opinion, to be honest, in this situation, I don't know what to do.

I can only be forced to act according to the guidance of my own reason."

After that, Using the method of touching Captain Jin, he lifted up a zombie body, put his knees on the back of the zombie's head, pushed the Tianling cover with one hand, and pinched the zombie's cheek with the other hand, hoping to make the corpse spit out the "Zhu Yanzhu" stuffed in its mouth.

I quickly grabbed the fat man.

I have caught enough green heads this time.

The corpses of Guchai’s ancestors are all found in the tombs in Guixu.

They have held pearls for thousands of years and have not decayed even after death.

If it is out of respect, they are generally not called zombies or zombies.

Zongzi, but to describe it as a "zombified person".

It's better not to disturb them at this time, otherwise even though the tomb is full of life, once the "Zhuyan Pearl" condensed with Yin essence is taken out, these zombies who have been preserved for thousands of years will immediately turn into powder.

We are going out to sea this time to fish for green heads and eggs, not to rob tombs in the ruins, so don’t do anything impossible, and don’t forget the rules of the ancestors.

Greed and insufficiency are the source of disaster in the world, and we still have to find a way.

I want to go back to the United States and enjoy it for a few years.

There have been so many storms and waves in the past few years.

It is not worth it to lose money here.

The fat man reluctantly got out of the whale bone after I tried to persuade him.

Although I don't want to touch these South China Sea zombies, I do want to see what's in these whale bones.

If I want to evacuate this place, I have to hope to find some clues.

The fossilized jaws of the giant whale skull are half-closed.

This whale skull is not very large, but it is more than enough to wrap the dead body.

It is said that the whale bone coffin seems to be a bit larger, and there seem to be some burial objects inside.

It is more like a tomb set up in the whale skeleton.

You can drill into the whale's mouth by leaning forward, and five well-preserved corpses lie peacefully in it.

Shiry Yang also wanted to see clearly, turned on the flashlight, followed me and bent down into the whale bone tomb.

Uncle Ming and others also wanted to come in to see what was going on, but the tomb was too narrow to allow so many living people to come and go.

To move around, I had to ask them to hold a mackerel candlestick in front of the whale's mouth for lighting and to be on guard against any accidents.

Who knows what kind of monsters may be hidden in this dark and gloomy underground, but don’t worry about being taken out of the way.

Shiry Yang and I walked one behind the other, carefully stepping over the five "Nanhai Zombies" and entering the depths of the tomb.

We squatted down and looked back at the corpses.

When we shined a flashlight, we saw that the five corpses were three women and two men.

The male corpse was an old one and a young one.

Their clothes had probably turned into dust, and they were covered with a thick layer of dry " "Dragon skin" is the folk name for eggs.

It is taken from a kind of sea fish with bright scales and horns on its head.

It has become extinct in modern times and will never be seen again.

Except for the heads, the five corpses were all covered tightly by a piece of "dragon skin".

The old man next to them only exposed half of his arms.

The skin of the corpse was slightly dark, and the face was slightly sunken, but all the water in the corpse was trapped.

The pearl is calm and does not rot or rot.

Only the moonlight pearl soaked in the sea air can have this magical effect.

I pulled out my diving knife and lightly stabbed the old man's corpse a few times in the arm.

Unexpectedly, the flesh of the zombie is as hard as iron.

I have never seen such an ancient corpse.

It may be a unique embalming treatment at sea in ancient times.

It seems to be the same as the zombies that the legendary Qin Shihuang encountered on the beach during his southern tour.

Shiry Yang asked me in a low voice: "You are acting recklessly again.

Why are you killing ancient corpses with a knife?"

I said: "I'll test it out to see if it's a fake corpse.

Now it seems that the worry is unnecessary.

Guixu is the cave of Nanlong.

It's so angry that I've never seen it in my life.

These zombies are about to turn to stone."

No more corpse transformation."

Shiry Yang nodded and scanned the whale bones with a flashlight, discovering that there were quite a few funerary objects in the tomb.

The burial of ancient artifacts has been around since the Stone Age.

Not only in China, but also in ancient civilizations around the world, most of the ancient civilizations in the world have the custom of burying objects with them.

The whale bone fossils include the remains of various aquatic species, stacked with countless burial objects, and are distributed in a rectangular shape in the tomb.

In addition to some altars, pots, jade plates and tortoise shells, there is also a strange-shaped bronze tripod.

According to the Zhou ritual system, the tripod has three legs.

When the emperor is buried, he can enjoy the specification of nine tripods in the tomb.

Bronze is an important weapon of the country.

Only the emperor can use the nine bronze tripods.

Below the emperor, there are five levels: "gong, marquis, uncle, son, and male".

Even if you are a grand duke, you cannot put nine bronze tripods in your tomb.

Ding, otherwise he would have the ambition to rebel.

The bronze vessel in the Guixu tomb is shaped like a tripod, but it is actually unusual.

Its huge belly is divided into eight sides, with nine legs underneath.

It is half a meter tall.

Although it is low, it should not be a bronze gui 1, but a rare nine-legged vessel.

A different tripod.

Identify antique bronzes.

According to the color of ancient wares, they can be divided into wax tea, cinnabar spot, true green, and green wellhead.

Only these four are real bronzes.

Look at the nine-legged bronze tripod.

Although it has been close to the water for thousands of years, the ancient and quiet color between the true green and the green well head still exists in the copper, just like it is covered with a layer of green moss growing in the cracks of the well platform.

It is not as bright and smooth as pure green bronze ware, and its serene meaning has not diminished yet.

The edge of the tripod mouth looks like a pillow horn, with ears and sea animal patterns, and is decorated with stars on all sides.

Panjiayuan Antiques Market rarely circulates real ancient bronzes, but counterfeit ones are everywhere.

Some vendors even try to fool people with the bronze appraisal formula of "Xia Shangzhong, Shang Shangzhi, Zhou Shangwen", so I know a little bit about it.

This nine-legged cauldron has the characteristics of Xia and Zhou Dynasties.

I thought that perhaps this bronze cauldron made of dragon fire is more valuable than the King of Qin's bone mirror.

Shiry Yang and I both know that tripods have always been used to record events, and when we saw the bronze tripod buried in the tomb, it was truly a treasure in the world, and we couldn't help but be amazed.

She was stunned for a moment, and then she leaned over to take a closer look.

She looked at the appearance of the tripod belly, and I looked at the abyss of the tripod belly.

I saw that the tripod abyss was filled with water, and there was a thick layer of dark green floating objects on the water, which looked like A cauldron of black sewage, stagnant water without waves, it was unclear whether there was anything in the water. 1.

Gui, which sounds like gui, is an ancient food container with a round mouth and two ears
