Before I could say anything, Lao Cao said with a smile.
"Brother Yuan, is it possible that we can meet the Fairy Girl if we want to? Of course, if we build a good relationship with Xiao Wu, we might have the opportunity to meet her in the future. If the Fairy Girl gives you some advice, it will be the honor of your life!"
Well……
Although in my heart, Master is not only beautiful, but also powerful in mystical arts. He is almost a perfect person. But I still feel a little embarrassed when I praise Lao Cao like this.
In today's terms, that person is definitely my master's top fan!
Yuan Fei chuckled, and although he nodded, he seemed a little noncommittal.
He pointed at a certain location in the cemetery below: "Let's go and see what's going on first. If this is really a Yin Gathering Corpse Raising Formation, it would be a bit troublesome."
Indeed, if it is really the Yin Gathering Corpse Raising Formation... it means that there must be bad guys who are proficient in Xuanmen methods near Lianghe Town!
After all, who in the right way would do something like this?
I'm even more worried, even if it's not the Yin Gathering Corpse Raising Formation. The guy hiding in the dark trying to manipulate so many tombs is obviously not a good person.
The three of us walked down the path from the highest point of the cemetery to a certain location in the center of the cemetery - where the "Shengmen" of the entire cemetery formation is located.
In the southwest area, the Taoist priests and gentlemen among the people have learned a lot of things, and the art of Feng Shui is almost indispensable. When studying Feng Shui, in addition to spotting holes and looking at tombs, you also need to understand some formations.
In the eight-door formation, it is divided into eight gates: Kai, Xiu, Sheng, Shang, Du, Jing, Jing, and Death. Corresponds to different formation effects and execution methods.
Although I'm not particularly proficient yet, I can still see some clues.
Probably, it’s not very good to do it yourself, but it’s okay to watch others do it!
That's why not long after Yuan Fei, he also locked the position of the "Shengmen" of the Yin Gathering Formation - which was not in line with common sense.
The location of Shengmen is also a tomb.
This tomb is not big and gives people a dilapidated and old feeling. Moreover, only half of the tombstones were left, collapsed on the side, and surrounded by weeds.
There were no sacrificial objects in front of the grave. It seemed that the incense had been discontinued.
This is not surprising.
Lianghe Town has a long history. As late as the mid-Ming Dynasty, it was an important water and land artery between Sichuan and Chongqing. Therefore, there are many old graves in the mountains around the town.
And in the long river of time, some families have moved away, and some families have no descendants... This is also normal. Some old graves without owners are left on the surrounding mountains.
This should be the case with the one in front of you.
Lao Cao knelt down and casually picked up a handful of soil from the side of the grave. Rub it gently in your hands, then put it under your nose and smell it.
"Well, it is indeed an old tomb. It has a history of at least two to three hundred years."
His method of judging time by smelling soil is also amazing!
Yuan Fei joked: "Master Cao, your soil-sniffing skills are better than many low-level fighters, right?"
Those who fight are the tomb robbers.
Lao Cao snorted disdainfully: "The method of identifying the year by hearing the soil originated from the coffin bearers. Either some coffin bearers changed careers, or some low-level people learned it. "
Only then did Yuan Fei and I find out that there was such a connection.
But think about it, coffin bearers deal with coffins all the time. No one knows all the taboos and evil things related to coffins better than them!
Moreover, this business is more dangerous than tomb robbing, and the returns are lower.
Some coffin bearers couldn't bear the loneliness and became tomb robbers... It's not a strange thing.
Yuan Fei stared at this small old tomb and frowned slightly: "If you say that there are old corpses in this old tomb, it is possible to use the method of gathering yin to raise the corpse. But this is a living gate! Is it possible? , can you still resurrect the master in this grave?"
I shook my head: "That's impossible!"
Dead things cannot be resurrected.
Master has emphasized this to me a long time ago!
Although people in Xuanmen learn various magic techniques. There are some evil ways to "resurrect" corpses - but it's just a common name. In fact, what is actually used is the death and corpse energy gathered at the "Death Door", which turns the corpse into evil spirits.
But the living door really cannot connect with dead things.
"This is strange... Could it be that some evil cultivator is not good at studying and wants to gather the yin to raise corpses, but makes a mistake?"
Yuan Fei weakly put forward a guess that he didn't even believe.
Lao Cao smoked a cigarette with a thoughtful look on his face.
And I walked around the tomb and made new discoveries.
"Old Cao, Uncle Yuan, come and see here."
After hearing this, the two of them also walked around to the back of the old grave, but they were a little confused.
"Xiao Wu, is there nothing unusual about this?"
I squatted down and carefully tapped my fingers from the long stems and leaves of a clump of weeds. It was stained with something dark and then stretched out in front of them.
"look!"
Lao Cao and Yuan Fei were still puzzled: "This is..."
"ash!"
I said categorically: "It must be the ashes of the spell. This thing is my best method at the moment. So it is very sensitive."
Lao Cao understood what I meant and suddenly realized.
"So this means that someone cast a spell on this tomb! Xiao Wu, can you tell what kind of spell it is?"
I shook my head vigorously: "How is that possible! Unless it is my master, it is almost the same. I heard that there is a retrospective spell that can reproduce the spells that have been performed within a certain range, but I am still far away."
"As expected of an immortal girl! I just said it casually, but I didn't expect that such a heaven-defying method actually existed in the world."
All right!
This old Cao started to brag about my master again.
I quickly stopped him. The first priority was to find out what was going on.
After much deliberation, Yuan Fei still suggested opening the coffin directly!
Since this old tomb is where the "Shengmen" is, there won't be much danger. Moreover, this is already an ownerless grave. The incense has been cut off. It is estimated that the souls of the deceased inside have already gone to the underworld and been reincarnated...
Dig it up and take a look, it's not a big problem.
What's more, there is also Lao Cao, a professional coffin bearer. If there is really a problem with the coffin, it’s not too late to find a solution!
So the three of us dug.
Fortunately, Lao Cao was thoughtful and brought a shovel, otherwise he would have had to run down the mountain. Go to the supermarket on the other side of the Two Rivers Bridge and buy one.
The tomb was not big originally, and it was old and the soil was very soft.
The three of us took turns and dug it out in twenty minutes.
A skinned coffin appeared in front of him.
The moment he saw it, Lao Cao's eyes widened and he looked very surprised.
"Huh? This coffin exudes so much life! It's definitely not a corpse inside. What on earth is it?"
vitality?
I was also shocked.
How could the coffin radiate life?
Yuan Fei suddenly realized: "So that's it! This shouldn't be a Yin-gathering corpse-raising array. It's a Qi-gathering array. When the Qi rides on the wind, it disperses, and when the boundary water stops, it will not disperse when gathered, and it will stop when it moves. That’s why it’s called Feng Shui! This Shengmen gathers all the Feng Shui energy of this graveyard together to nourish this coffin.”
A sentence suddenly came to mind: absorb the energy of a hundred graves and raise a coffin!
It can be considered a big deal.
Moreover, these graves buried around them are in bad luck.
Because this formation absorbs the energy of the surrounding geomantic omen, it is equivalent to taking away the benefits that should belong to them in disguise.
It was supposed to be buried here to bless future generations with promotion and wealth, but I am afraid that this luck will no longer exist.
Of course, since it is just gathering Qi, it will make this Feng Shui treasure land ordinary at best. It's not like there will be any big disaster, it can be regarded as a blessing among misfortunes...
But after hearing what Yuan Fei said, Lao Cao nodded first and then shook his head.
"Brother Yuan, what you said is both right and wrong. Maybe someone did gather the Yin Qi of the entire cemetery to nourish this birth gate. But it is not this coffin that nourishes it. After all, it is just an ordinary thin-skinned coffin, neither It’s precious wood and no special means. It’s worthless.”
that's true……
Yuan Fei said in a deep voice: "Is it to nourish the corpse in the coffin?"
But as soon as the words came out, he immediately shook his head.
Because Lao Cao and I had said firmly from the beginning that it was absolutely impossible to nourish dead things with the position of "life gate".
Thinking of this, I stared at the coffin in the grave, and my face changed slightly.
"Could it be that there are any living things in this old coffin? The energy of the hundred tombs is used to nourish some kind of living things in this coffin!"
