Part 3 Bashan Treasure Cave Chapter 37 Fighting Poison with Poison


As early as the early days of becoming a disciple, Master Ma told Zhang Guozhong a story that has been passed down for a long time in the Maoshan religion.

According to current standards, it should be called a "classic case."

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, there was a magistrate named Song Kejin.

After his father died of illness, he originally wanted to be buried in his ancestral grave.

However, due to the diversion of the river, he was forced to be buried one mile away from his ancestral grave.

After he was buried, Song Kejin Every day, he would dream about his father being whipped with a whip and crying his blood all day long in the underworld.

At first, Song Kejin thought that his dream was caused by excessive longing for his father, but for a year, he had this dream every day, which tortured Song Kejin until he was worse than dead.

Later, a Taoist priest named Sun Shide came to the place where his father was buried, and found a tomb of a Mongolian noble from the Yuan Dynasty not far away.

It was in the Yunqi position of An Ning beside the tomb of his father of Song Dynasty.

He immediately concluded that this Yuan Dynasty tomb was The main culprit for Song's father's unrest.

Song Kejin originally wanted to dig up his father's coffin and bury it elsewhere, but in ancient times, digging up a coffin was disrespectful to the deceased.

What's more, when Song Kejin was unable to find his father's coffin, Taoist Sun gave him a warning and asked him to Find a very vicious murderer, and then negotiate a deal with the murderer.

If the murderer promises Song Kejin to protect his father after his death, he promises to treat him well with food and wine before he is beheaded, and after he is beheaded, he will get a generous burial and burn a hundred catties of paper money.

Although he was doubtful, the dream he had about his father every day was true.

In desperation, Song Kejin quickly reached an agreement with Cheng Song, a criminal thief who was responsible for more than a dozen lives, and established a written agreement.

Cheng Song was also deceived at this time, thinking that a pie was falling from the sky.

There were such stupid officials in the world.

He quickly agreed to Song Kejin's conditions, and after a month of good wine and good food, he became a dead ghost. .

After Cheng Song was beheaded, Song Kejin carried out a high-quality coffin to bury him according to his lifetime contract, and then burned more than 100 kilograms of paper money for Cheng Song, as well as the written documents written by Cheng Song during his lifetime.

According to Taoist Sun's arrangement, Cheng Song was buried in the Suqi position of Lord Yinchang next to the tomb of Song's father.

From then on, a "Shi Gen Formation" was also set up using Cheng Song's tomb as the center of the formation.

The Yin Qi in the earth veins was continuously transported to Cheng Song's coffin.

Originally, this "Shi Gen Formation" was used to save people and exorcise ghosts, but this time it was used on the dead.

It was also a breakthrough and innovation of Maoshan Sect. .

Sure enough, on the night when Cheng Song was buried, Song Kejin suddenly dreamed of his father standing in front of him with a smile, neatly dressed, nodding to him, and behind his father, a black-faced man was standing respectfully, it was Cheng Song.

After that, Song Kejin He never dreamed of his father being whipped again.

Although this story is a legend, it is also a precedent of "fighting fire with fire", and what Taoist Sun did in the story is completely feasible in theory.

This time, Old Liu Tou and Zhang Guozhong actually thought of the same thing.

Although he didn't know what the poisonous jade in his hand was, wasn't there a "Thousand Soul Mandrill" sealed inside?

If the Zhentai and the poisonous jade were regarded as tomb For burial, the poisonous jade is also placed in the plain position of the town platform, and the "Shi Gen Formation" is arranged around it.

The power of this "Thousand Soul Mandrill" plus the Yin Qi gathered by the "Shi Gen Formation", even if there is no place in the town platform, Even if the immortal lives in Da Luo, he will definitely fall down.

The most important question now is how to make these two things fight.

Theoretically speaking, the "Thousand Soul Mandrill" sealed in the poisonous jade and the things in the Zhentai are of the same kind.

Only by making them think that the other is a living creature can they achieve their goal.

Needless to say, basic methods such as living talismans and dummies are useless.

They cannot last for more than a minute in the face of the "Thousand Soul Mandrill" or something more powerful.

Zhang Guozhong kept fanning, and suddenly smelled a fragrance.

When he went out, he saw that Village Chief Li was burning incense and worshiping Bodhisattva.

"Comrade Zhang, I want to pray for you to be safe.

If you accumulate virtue and do good deeds, you will definitely turn disaster into good luck."

Village Chief Li said very sincerely.

Seeing the portrait of Guanyin posted on the wall of Village Chief Li, a spark flashed in Zhang Guozhong's head.

"Bodhisattva Buddha Sitting Buddha Map Porcelain Vase Zhao Le Huo Chi Bureau, Huo Chi Bureau" The more Zhang Guozhong thought about it, the more he knew.

"I know, I know."

Just like when he saw the place of death in Licun, Zhang Guozhong yelled and ran into the house.

The sleeping old Liu Tou sat up with a knife, "What, who is rushing in again?"

" Zhang Guozhong found a cart from Xizi Village and went to Yuanba to find a stonemason.

He carved six small pillars, which were a set of "Six Earth Fire" stone pillars.

If "Turkey" could not be found, he used peach wood instead.

I made a wooden box and used cinnabar because I didn't have any red salt.

After obtaining these things, I made a foolproof plan with Old Liu Tou.

After eating and drinking, Chen Sanlai took him to "Persimmon Ridge" .

"Persimmon Ridge" is a small mountain peak with extremely dangerous terrain.

Old Liu Tou took a look here and was surprised that this is the Zhengyang position in the mountain, and according to the record on the map, "Kunshang Terrace" is on the ridge. .

This Zhao Sange formation is so unbelievable.

Theoretically speaking, all nine platforms should be placed in the yin position in the mountain.

This yang position is guarded by some god.

But when the three of them entered the "Kunxingtai", they were completely dumbfounded.

What kind of platform was this?

It was clearly an ancient battlefield.

There were many bones and broken swords.

They didn't know the origins of the people on both sides.

Basically, there was no body.

The corpses were complete, either headless or missing arms and legs, and they were all wearing Ming Dynasty-style armor, like regular soldiers of the imperial court.

The base of this town platform is as empty as the previous two platforms.

Qin Ge was depressed again.

After Zhang Guozhong persuaded him, he managed to cheer up and went to the next "True Immortal Terrace".

"Zhenxian Terrace" is built in a cave like "Xingshu Terrace".

It is less than five miles away from "Kunxian Terrace".

It is the two closest town towers.

After Lao Liu set up the sky-gazing array, the yellow flag Without moving at all, he entered through a small hole.

The room became wider and wider as he walked, but something became more and more strange as he went deeper.

From time to time, there were twos and threes of ancient people embedded in the wall on both sides of the hole.

Due to the humid environment and strong yin energy of the cave, these people did not suffer from serious decay.

But the strangest thing is that there are corpses in the troughs on the wall that are badly decayed, and the iron bars are broken.

The corpses are lying on their sides in the troughs, as if they have been dragged out.

I don’t know if it was like this when the town tower was built.

Or it will be destroyed in later generations.

"Prisoner died" Old Liu Tou pulled out the dagger, "Why did this thing still exist in the Tang Dynasty?"

Imprisonment and sacrifice is a type of soul-preserving method.

It is said to have originated in the Sui Dynasty.

Although it is powerful, because the amount of work required is no less than that of repairing organs, few people use this method to guard tombs.

There are only records of the application of the soul-preserving method.

It is short-lived.

The method of martyrdom is to cut a human-shaped groove in the wall, then tie up the living person and embed it in the groove.

The groove is one size smaller than the person embedded in it, so it is very painful for the person to be embedded alive.

Yes, after the inlay is completed, the outside of the groove is nailed with iron bars, and then left alone.

It is so immoral that it is hilarious.

These people who died from being squeezed and starved are commonly known as "Khotan ghosts" and are one of the most difficult evil spirits to deal with.

"It's strange."

Zhang Guozhong held the dragon scale tightly, "The other towns were all killed on the spot.

Why did this town carry out the time-consuming and laborious process of prisoner sacrifice?"

"Master Qin, don't worry," Old Liu Tou said, "It seems that no one has been to this platform.

I don't know what the yellow flag means if it doesn't move.

Maybe it will be fine if you don't touch the platform."

Qin Ge was also happy and nervous.

Old Liu Tou asked Village Chief Li to go to Yuanba Town and borrow the butcher's butcher's knife.

Although it was funny, it was actually much more effective than his pistol.

The passage was about fifty meters long, with thirty or forty prisoners densely packed on both sides.

Old Liu's legs became softer and softer as he walked.

A "thousand soul mandrill" was so difficult to deal with.

The prisoners in this darkest place had good qualities.

Dozens of them, if they all become "Khotan ghosts", I'm afraid the Patriarch will have to admit defeat when he comes.

The main part of the corridor was a small stone room with only thirty square meters.

It must have been a huge natural cave before, but walls were artificially built around it.

Old Liu Tou knocked on the stone wall with the handle of his dagger.

It seemed to be very thick. .

The pedestal of the stone chamber was very obvious.

It was in the middle of the stone chamber.

Qin Ge illuminated the pedestal with a flash of his hand and saw that the pedestal was empty and there was nothing.

"Master Qin, don't worry, let's go to the next one."

Old Liu Tou was also a little embarrassed.

Although Qin Ge is annoying, it's not good to hit others all the time.

"This" Qin Ge didn't seem to be in a hurry, but squatted down and carefully observed the platform.

"Headmaster Zhang, can you show me your piece of jade?"

Zhang Guozhong was puzzled, but he did not dare to attack Qin Ge at this moment, so he had to carefully hand the box containing the poisonous jade to Qin Ge.

With a snap, Qin Ge opened the lid of the box, looked carefully at the appearance of the poisonous jade, and then looked at it again.

Then he took out the poisonous jade and wanted to place it on the platform.

"Stop!"

Old Liu's face turned pale, "Now put this on the stage, are you tired of living?"

Qin Ge was also stunned at this moment.

He was too involved just now, how could he have such a rudimentary idea?

"Headmaster Zhang, this seems to be the real platform where this jade is placed.

Look."

Following Qin Ge's flashlight, Zhang Guozhong did find that a notch had been cut out on the stone pedestal, which was very consistent with the side thickness of the poisonous jade.

If the poisonous jade was really the pedestal, it should have been inserted upright.

In this notch.

At this moment, a snapping sound was heard outside the cave, like the sound of something breaking.

Old Liu Tou immediately took out his compass and saw that the pointer was pounding and had large deviations from time to time.

"The surname is Qin," Old Liu Tou couldn't help it anymore.

"Look at the good things you have done."

He shined his flashlight towards the passage.

There seemed to be figures of twos and threes in the beam of light.

"Hurry up and set up the formation," Old Liu Tou shouted.

Based on Xing Suitai's experience, in such a dark place, the killing blade will not work.

The only hope now is the pre-planned "fight fire with fire" plan.

"It's too late, it's too late."

That method was originally used to break the town platform.

If the town platform was fixed, the "Shi Gen Formation" here would have enough time to extract Yin Qi from the ground, but at this moment, the figures in the distance were clearly moving. , the "Shi Gen Formation" has no time to absorb the Yin Qi, the enemy's position will change, and it will not work at all.

Zhang Guozhong held the dragon scale tightly, jogged a few steps to the entrance of the stone corridor, picked up a small stone and threw it at the figure not far away.

There was a popping sound, as if the stone hit something soft.

"Solid ones are called Maoshan sect lingo.

Evil ghosts that attack are called hollow ones, and living corpses are called solid ones."

Zhang Guozhong looked around the surroundings and said, "Damn it, senior brother, what should we do?"

He saw only about thirty square meters.

The small cave is surrounded by stone walls that go straight up and down.

There is not even a place to hide, let alone running
