After death, the body is put into a coffin and buried.
If there is a chance to dig out the soil and open the coffin, no matter how far or near the death is, as long as the body is buried near Pingshan, the body in the coffin will disappear.
The coffin was intact and had never been touched by outsiders.
However, there were only some porcelain bottles and bamboo chopsticks left in the coffin.
The murderous clothes worn by the corpses were also left as they were.
The buttons were not unbuttoned, but not a single bit of corpses could be seen. .
There is a legend among the locals that before the Yuan soldiers came over, Pingshan was a forbidden place for the emperor to make elixirs.
In addition to the unique terrain and natural cave heaven, another important reason is that Chenzhou in western Hunan is rich in cinnabar, from which cinnabar can be extracted.
The mercury is an indispensable raw material for alchemy, and everything from longevity to longevity to the secret medicine of Fang Zhongshu is refined, so the mountain is full of medicinal energy all year round.
Over time, the rocks and soil of Pingshan have acquired medicinal gas that can transform corpses and eliminate bones.
All the corpses buried in the mountain are left with a dense corpse gas, which moves with the flow of earth veins and leaves no trace, hence the name "Corpse Moving Place".
Only the ancient corpse of the Yuan Dynasty general in the heart of the mountain died due to the sorcery of the cavemen.
The zombie was difficult to decay, and it was refined into essence by the power of the elixir in the tomb.
It is said that since the cracks opened in the ancient tomb, every few decades in the past, some people have seen armored zombies haunting the mountains.
They all say that they have seen it with their own eyes and are not just lying.
The custom of exorcising corpses is prevalent in western Hunan, and people believe in the theory that zombies are responsible for haunting them.
Therefore, it is rumored that there is a corpse king buried in Pingshan Mountain.
Those who go into the mountain to rob tombs and collect medicine are killed by zombies and evil soldiers, so everyone talks about it.
Who will eat it?
The leopard dared to enter the ancient cemetery in the heart of the mountain.
Blind Chen sneered when he heard this.
He was well-informed, how could he be frightened by the words of these natives.
I have heard of the name of the place where corpses were moved, but it was just a legend of Wu and Chu from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
How could there really be a place where corpses were moved?
The Yuan Tomb has always been a deep burial place.
There are many anti-theft techniques from the Western Regions in it, and the funerary objects are not as good as those in China.
The nobles and nobles are luxurious and have not always been the first choice of tomb robbers.
But the commander-in-chief of the Yuan army buried in Pingshan died in front of the formation.
When he wiped out the Miao people in the seventy-two caves, the loot must be heavy, plus the rare treasures enshrined by the royal family in Pingshan.
The richness of the treasure is probably not much worse than the imperial mausoleum.
But the situation of this ancient tomb is unique.
There are few people but it cannot move.
It is also remote and the news is isolated.
Therefore, fewer people know about it in modern times.
Otherwise, they should have led the crowd to fight against it long ago.
How could we wait until now?
today.
Now that the opportunity has arrived, it seems that it is the opportunity for the Xiling bandits to achieve great things.
Blind Chen calculated that his group was a foreigner and not very familiar with the local customs.
It would be difficult to achieve without a guide.
He could not kill people to silence him, but he had to reassure the guide first, otherwise he would let the news slip and instigate the troops to lose morale.
This was not a trivial matter. , and said to the ripe seedling: "It's not that Chen is boasting.
Everyone in Xiangyin knows that I, Shopkeeper Chen, am the best at catching ghosts and exorcising corpses.
I am also generous and willing to support good people.
Now I plan to lead a group of subordinates to eliminate evil for the people and eliminate the zombies in Pingshan.

You If you are willing to help me, I will benefit from you."
He said and handed the guide ten yuan.
The Miao guide saw that Mr.
Chen, the shopkeeper, was bold and aggressive, while Mr.
Luo could kill people with a glare.
If he didn't obey, he would be killed on the spot.
These two ancestors, one with a red face and the other with a black face, could not offend anyone. , in this situation of both carrot and stick , I want to escape but I can't.
In order to protect myself, my family and my life, I have to obey my words.
Even if I go up the knife mountain and down the oil pan, I have to follow.
I don't dare to say no anymore, and now I walk through this burial pit that was hollowed out by the bandits. , leading the bandits back to Laoxiong Ridge Yizhuang.
After repeatedly stepping on the plate and touching the game, Blind Chen already knew what was going on.
He could only wait for the mute Kunlun Molle to arrive with the engineering battalion before he could take action.
Luo Laowai was so impatient after waiting that he kept asking Chen Xiazi whether the treasures in the underground palace could be carried on trucks; and whether the Yuan soldiers and generals buried in the ancient tombs of the Yuan Dynasty were all Mongolian soldiers.
Blind Chen said that he had not visited in vain these days and learned many reasons.
Although this ancient tomb has been cracked since the previous year, firstly, the terrain is dangerous, and secondly, there are many traps and poisonous insects inside, making it difficult for a small group of tomb robbers to succeed.
There is a 99% chance that the treasures in the underground palace are piled up like mountains.
Those who are worried , I’m just worried about severe wind and rain erosion.
In addition, not all the generals of the Yuan Dynasty were Mongolians.
When the Yuan army wiped out the Western Regions of the Northern Kingdom, the troops that went south were similar to the Eight-Nation Allied Forces that invaded Beijing in the Gengzi Year.
They were all coalition forces from the Western Regions, and there were also Han Chinese troops who surrendered and defected.
Therefore, The burial customs must be exactly the same.
They built the blessed land of Pingshan into a tomb in an attempt to suppress the dragon spirit of the Southern Dynasty.
Pingshan has been a royal forbidden area since ancient times.
There are many mechanisms to prevent theft of medicines.
After the tomb was sealed into a large collection, most of these mechanisms were preserved.
Later, when people went to the mountain to rob the tomb, they had to guard against this.
It was already dusk while he was talking, and at dusk the mute came with three mixed teams.
Although Chen Xiazi's hundreds of thieves were improvised, most of them were familiar thieves.
Although they were not chaotic, Practice well.
But the troops under Luo Laowai are basically a ragtag group of soldiers.
The soldiers who were selected into the Dizi Camp of the Engineers are either heavy smokers, prostitutes, or cheaters.
Almost all of them are wanted.
Only those guys who don't care about their lives for money dare to rob graves and dig up graves without any taboos.
Luo Laowai was a thorn in the flesh of several nearby warlords.
This time he left his home and went deep into the hinterland of western Hunan to rob tombs.
He did not dare to announce it at all.
It was a completely secret operation.
He was mainly worried that other warlords would come to attack him.
Besides, the reputation of tomb robbing was not good after all.
Once word spread, he would become a target, so he did not dare to lead a large army.
Every time a tomb is robbed, an engineering battalion brings a pistol company, and when robbing a tomb in Laoxiong Ridge, western Hunan, it is necessary to be quick and secretive, and to evacuate as soon as it is done.
The nights are long and the whole process is best not to last more than three to five days.
This is not like in the On your own territory, you can seal off the mountain in the name of exercise, and you can do whatever you want.
Blind Chen saw that there were all the people and horses.
If there were more people, there would be a lot of movement.

He could not delay and had to act as soon as possible.
He immediately ordered everyone to tie their left arms with red silk soaked in cinnabar so that the three groups of people could recognize each other.
Then they gathered around Yizhuang.
Set up camp and rest until midnight before setting off.
Under the guidance of the guide, a team of nearly a thousand people led mules and horses, packed a lot of baggage, and set off for Pingshan in a mighty way under the moonlight.
In order to block the news, everyone they met along the way, regardless of barbarians or Han people, was captured and used as porters to accompany the army.
At dawn the next day, the engineer digging camp arrived at the gate at the pass of Pingshan Mountain.
The group of thieves did not dig the tomb door at the mountain pass, but wanted to save trouble and cut directly into the ancient tomb palace from the cliff on the top of the mountain.
The mountain road was winding and steep, and the horses could no longer go up the mountainside, so the porters had to carry all the necessary supplies.
The long team wound up the mountain along the ancient bluestone road.
Looking back from the head, it looked like a yellow dragon climbing The ancient bottle squirmed upward.
That morning, the clouds and fog in Pingshan were extremely thick.
Looking up at the heights, it seemed as if we were in the fog.
When we reached the heights, the clouds and fog were at our feet again.
The engineers in the Dizi Camp also knew that this was going up the mountain to rob graves.
If they were to fight, everyone would inevitably retreat, but doing the reverse fighting was equivalent to digging for gold nuggets in the dirt.
What a wonderful job.
There had been no pay for the past few months.
Now that there was finally an ancient tomb to be dug, everyone was gearing up, cheering up and rushing to follow the leader up the mountain.
Although the mountain road was difficult and dangerous, there was no complaint.
In fact, the several hundred people in the engineer battalion mainly acted as coolies in the fight, and the ones who really played a role were Chen Xiazi's group of men.
Each of the hundred or so thieves carried a large bamboo basket, which contained the Centipede Hanging Mountain Ladder, the unique secret weapon of the Xieling group of thieves.
This thing is a kind of bamboo ladder assembled in sections.
When the bandits in Xiling are fighting against each other, they can't do without this equipment whenever they go up the mountain or down the stream and encounter difficulties and obstacles.
When the Centipede Hanging Ladder is disassembled, it is a bamboo tube as thick as a forearm.
The material is the most resilient moso bamboo.
It has been soaked in an oil pan dozens of times and can be bent into a full bow shape without breaking.
There are buckles on both ends of each bamboo tube, both front and back, and the tube body has two round holes with the thickness of the bamboo body.
When in use, one of them is connected vertically to form a long bamboo pole, and the two sides are inserted horizontally.
The bamboo tube for people to step on has a hanging mountain claw on the top.
From a distance, it looks like a bamboo centipede.
When there is a dangerous cliff that cannot be climbed, one person can use two centipede ladders in turn and hook them in the gaps between the loose rocks to quickly climb up the dangerous cliff.
And the name "Hanshan" is not only used for climbing mountains.
"Shan" and "Dou" are both synonymous with ancient tombs.
Mountain refers to the mountain tomb.
Because the robbery cave or the robbery cave destroyed by explosives is narrow, It is difficult for tomb robbers to enter with large equipment.
The centipede hanging ladder that can be disassembled and assembled can be carried by everyone, so that they can enter and exit freely without being restricted by the terrain.
Some ancient tombs have coffins suspended by iron ropes.
In order to prevent water seepage in the underground palace, the coffins are hung high in the tomb chamber by iron rings, supplemented by bamboo ladders, which saves a lot of effort during the inversion process.
The prototype of this centipede-hanging mountain ladder evolved from the tools used by the Red Eyebrow Army in the Han Dynasty to siege cities.
After dozens of generations of hard work and repeated modifications and improvements, it became what it is today.
Chen Xiazi led the crowd to the top of the mountain and saw that the colorful mist was still rising in the rift valley, but it had become much weaker at nearly noon.
The venomous pythons and poisonous insects in the mountains are all yin-hungry by nature.
They must be dormant at this time.
When they are about to act, they will use their hands to order the porters to pour bags of lime into the deep stream.

The bag of lime burst when it fell to the bottom of the valley, and the lime contained inside sputtered and boiled.
No matter what vicious poison it contained, it couldn't withstand the violent choking.
Even if it was lucky enough to survive, it would definitely escape far away.
However, in a hurry, the engineer battalion only prepared more than two hundred bags of lime, which were blown away by the mountain wind when they were thrown down.
The rest was a drop in the bucket and far from enough to cover the valley bottom.
When everyone saw that there was not enough lime on the top of the mountain, they stamped their feet anxiously.
However, as they deserved their success, the lime sprinkled still had a great effect.
The poisonous mirage in the depths gradually disappeared, leaving only The vast white clouds in the sky.
Blind Chen planned to send three or two skilled men to explore first, so he asked everyone: "Which one is willing to go?"
Two strong men immediately emerged from the group of thieves.
One was a monkey racer and the other was a ground kicker.
They were both good at climbing mountains and drilling through forests.
The two of them were determined to find an opportunity to show off their skills in front of the bandit leader, and now they expressed their willingness to go down and find out.
Blind Chen praised his courage and ordered the two of them to go down the stream.
The two men leaned forward to accept the order, holding a piece of five-poison medicine cake in their mouths, holding a pigeon cage for testing the poison, a box of cannons and a waist knife at their waists, black gauze covering their mouths and noses, and dragging two centipedes to hang on the mountain ladder.
I saw them piercing the clouds and mist, and disappeared in an instant.
The rest of the people were looking down from the cliff at the top of the mountain, sweating for them.
Whether they would live or die would depend on the fate of these two people.
Chen Xiazi looks calm on the surface, but now it is unpredictable, and he is secretly uneasy in his heart.
Luo Laowai impatiently took out his pocket watch to check the time, but after waiting for so long, everyone's necks hurt.
He kept calling them loudly from above, but it was always quiet in the rift valley.
There was no movement, only the ominous clouds and mist were gathering and getting thicker
