Back then, when construction machinery was not yet developed, the role of cattle and horses was similar to that of excavators and cranes on construction sites today.
All these animals are recorded in a book. How long they work every day and how much fodder they eat are all responsible for the work. The money is precious.
Fortunately for them, all the animals in the barn fell ill in one night, which was not a trivial matter in those days.
"What will the veterinarian say after seeing it?"
Mr. Li shook his head and sighed.
"What else can I say? It's all hopeless. I'm getting injections and dripping with water, and I'm watching people dripping with foam and dying one after another. In the end, the police station was alerted, and all the people who managed the stables, the cattle herders, and the horse herders were arrested. Go to interrogation.
That night, word spread among the workers that the engineer had touched someone else's coffin, and the owner was not happy about it and wanted to cause trouble for him.
Someone went to send a message to the engineer, saying that someone at the construction site was talking nonsense. When they went to his tent, they found him pinching his neck, his face was ashen, and he was talking nonsense.
Everyone went up to hold his hand, but they didn't expect that his hand was like a pair of pliers, completely stiff and couldn't be pried open.
When I saw that something was wrong, I quickly returned to my work shed, took out a pen and paper, secretly drew a talisman and burned it, then rinsed the water, poured it into a kettle, and drank it to him in a daze, which saved his life. "
When the old man talked about this past event, his expression was still full of mixed emotions.
"and after?"
"Later, our entire work area began to fall ill, and everyone suffered from dysentery. They were suffering from vomiting and diarrhea and were unable to work at all.
The city sent cars to take us all back to the city for hospitalization. The engineer wrote a report to the superiors and asked to be transferred away from the project. The superiors sent another person in charge, who was older and we all called him Lao Yu.
After Lao Yu arrived, he first found someone to bury the coffin back, and then wrote a report on the whole incident and handed it over.
The superiors didn't know where they got the details about me, so they gave Lao Yu an instruction: If anything happens, please consult Comrade Li Yan. "
Hearing this, Lin Yi finally let out a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt like it was dawn.
"Then you presided over and participated in the construction of this living area, and installed a 'Evil Feng Shui Bureau' on top of this ancient tomb?"
"It's not all my fault. Lao Yu also knows some Feng Shui. When we were in the hospital, he led people to bury the coffins and then secretly found a local Feng Shui master to perform rituals. .
After we were discharged from the hospital, Lao Yucai came to me to discuss the matter and asked me what to do about it. The two of us thought about it and concluded that this land must be used, so we could only think of a compromise. Finally, we decided to build the land here. When the family members were in the building, a Feng Shui array was set up to suppress the evil spirits in the underground. "
"So you have to go to the old factory every first and fifteenth day of the lunar month just to see if the Feng Shui formation is still there?"
"Yes! After the completion of this Feng Shui formation, nothing weird has happened again, but I always feel uneasy in my heart. After so many years, I have to go up there every month to take a look before I feel at ease."
Speaking of this, Lin Yi thought that the mystery in his heart was finally solved, but then he thought again.
That’s not right!
The old man has been talking for so long, and it seems that these things are not the same thing as what Li Ling told them.
Could it be that the old man wanted to hide something?
Lin Yi put down the apple in his hand and asked insinuatingly:
"Mr. Li, what you just said seems to be slightly different from what Li Ling said?"
"Of course there is a discrepancy, because these are completely two different things."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi was a little confused.
However, if you think about it carefully, the incident that the old man just told was caused by the "Feng Shui array" in the living area. It seems that it has nothing to do with the story Li Ling told.
“We were the first batch to arrive at Helan Mountain, and the movements continued one after another. There were not enough manpower in the factory area, so we went up again. In the production area, it was still in the initial stage, so we hired railway soldiers to carry out the blasting.
I happened to be leading the team that day, and I remember very clearly that in the morning we drilled the blast hole together, and the railway corps brothers behind them drugged it and checked it three times. It was almost noon before giving the order to blast it.
A gap was opened in Shanliangzi, and a large hole was seen in a green brick wall.
Several workers and I took a look inside with torches and found that the cave was filled with Buddha statues, scriptures, ritual instruments, and some Buddhist-themed murals on the walls.
I knew this might be a burial pit, perhaps related to the tomb we found in the living area before.
The few workers who came in with me were timid and were afraid that what happened before would happen to them again, so they all pretended that it didn't happen. During the lunch break, a few of us opened the hole again. It's been built.
When construction was done later, it was buried again. "
After listening to his description, Lin Yi realized that it was very different from what Li Ling said. That was probably what happened at the time.
The Li family was originally orthodox and had little interest in such extraneous things.
Not to mention having any evil thoughts about these funerary objects.
What's more, at that time, if you discovered such a thing, not to mention whether you would be "repugnated" like before, everyone should have come with the mentality of doing more than doing less. Who would have nothing to do with this kind of thing? ?
"Do you still have an impression of the things you discovered back then? For example, what dynasty do you think they are roughly the product of?"
"Xixia!"
Mr. Li blurted out.
"Xixia? Are you sure it's Xixia?"
The old man nodded solemnly.
"Although I don't know Tangut, I can still remember the texts on the scriptures and murals. Later, after I saw Tangut, I became more and more certain that the words I saw in the cave were Tangut."
"Then have you heard of the legend of Li Yuanhao's suspicious tomb in Xixia Kingdom?"
"Li Yuanhao's tomb? Of course I've heard of it. After all, I've stayed in Xingqing Mansion for so long, so I've heard more or less the stories circulating here.
However, the tomb under our "Yao Ling San" should not belong to Li Yuanhao. I think it belongs to someone else. "
"Why do you say that?"
Lin Yi said puzzledly.
"First of all, judging from the scale of the tomb, the main tomb is in the living area of the old factory, and the place where the funerary objects are placed is in the production area of the old factory. The straight-line distance is nearly 800 meters. Such a large-scale tomb will soon catch up with the entire Xixia It's a royal tomb. Does this look like a tomb?
Another thing is that this tomb is not in the correct Feng Shui position, and the location is very careless. As an imperial mausoleum, it is a bit unbelievable that it is so careless. "(End of chapter)
