In ancient Chu mythology, Da Siming and Shao Siming are opposites of the same god. Da Siming is a male, who controls life and death in the world, and presides over the rewards and punishments of living beings. He is an unsmiling god who never shows favoritism. , as long as someone's life violates the law of heaven, he will not hesitate to perform his priestly duties and uphold the rules of heaven without changing it for anything.
However, coldness alone is not enough!
The ancients believed that the sky hangs the sun and the moon, the earth carries the day and night, the hexagrams divide the universe and the earth, and the extremes produce two rituals. At the same time, people are also divided into yin and yang. The great commander enforces the law ruthlessly without a trace of mercy and tenderness because the way of heaven is ruthless, but at the same time, the way of heaven is also sentimental. Otherwise, all living things would not be born.
As a result, the compassion in Da Siming was stripped away from his godhead, forming a new godhead that was gentle, solemn, infinitely vital, loving and compassionate, which was Shao Siming.
"It turns out that there are so many allusions to Shao Siming!"
Ah Ying's eyes lit up when she heard this. She seemed to have never heard her mention these things before. The look she looked at Song Siyuan had a hint of admiration.
"These are just folk legends and should not be taken seriously. We can get important folk customs from the division of these gods. Shao Siming is responsible for heirs and inheritance. Nojilou is responsible for storing classics and educating children. The sacred paintings dedicated to Shao Siming are also Within reason.”
Song Siyuan paused briefly and her tone became mysterious: "I dare say that if there is a young Siming, there must be a big Siming. In the building responsible for punishment in Wu Coffin Town, the one enshrined must be the big Siming."
She walked towards the incense table. The tributes, the furnace tripod, and the incense ashes all disappeared, leaving only an incense box hanging on the mural, quietly waiting for everyone to discover it.
Click!
She pulled her wrist back, and the divine box was opened. Inside was a ring of ancient copper keys. Judging by the number of keys, they should be able to open all the rooms in the Nogi Building.
"Come on, let's go to the screen door!"
Yue Guanchao took the lead and pushed open the screen door and entered the back hall ahead of everyone else.
There was no light in the back hall, and it was so dark that he could not see his fingers. Yue Guanchao turned on the flashlight above his head, and the furnishings in the back hall were instantly illuminated.
This back hall is probably where the children of Wu Coffin Town study classics and knowledge. There are forty or fifty sets of yellow wood tables and chairs in the huge space. The tabletop is in a mess, with pens, inks, papers and inkstones piled randomly on the table.
There were many celestial scrolls hanging on the walls that he couldn't understand, and occasionally they could see various patterns carved by naughty children. If they hadn't seen a layer of dust falling, they would have thought that these children were still in the back hall just now.
Just now, the flashlight was shining in the distance, and there was just a blind spot in front of them. As the flashlight changed direction, they turned their gaze to the nearby area, and all the details nearby were reflected in everyone's eyes.
"This corpse is too miserable!"
Right next to them, a corpse appeared!
Song Siyuan took a look, and there seemed to be something regurgitating from her throat.
Since entering Witch Coffin Town, they have seen dozens of rotting corpses, and they are not surprised by corpses.
But the corpse in front of them made everyone nervous - the death scene was too horrifying.
If I had to use idioms to describe it, only the word "horrific" can describe the horror of this corpse!
The facial features of this corpse were tough. She guessed it was a man. However, the skin had been separated from the body, making it difficult to identify whether it was a man or a woman. The eyeballs were missing. They were gouged out and only empty eye sockets were left. They popped out of the eye sockets. Many downy weeds made his eyes scary and weird.
Everyone observed carefully and found that the face of the corpse had probably been cut a hundred times, and each cut turned into strange lines. The ten fingers were bent and deformed at various angles. It must have been tortured during his lifetime.
Although the corpse was sitting on a chair, the skirt of its lower body was swinging in the air.
Yue Guanchao used a machete to lift up the hem of his skirt, and the legs and feet that should have landed on the ground disappeared. He searched for a long time before he found the chopped off calves from under other tables.
Considering the bullet holes on the back of the body's head, they guessed that the body was probably tortured to death, and that it was also a bandit who died under Tang Dianrong's hands.
Aying walked to the body, looked at his clothes carefully, and explained to everyone with a serious expression:
"Brother Yue, he should be the wizard responsible for managing Nojido."
Song Siyuan carefully observed the corpse's state of death. The shaman was holding a picture scroll sewn in animal skin, and the text looked like a witch's coffin book!
She picked up the animal skin scroll and handed it to Ah Ying: "The secret that Dian Wu protected before his death should be in this scroll!"
Ah Ying understood the idea and began to translate the legend in the animal skin picture. She read the entire article and her eyes flashed: "This picture scroll mentions that Wu Coffin Town guards the ancestral treasure, right here... right here...!"
She continued to search, and there was obviously a piece missing from the picture scroll, as if someone had cut it open with a dagger!
Yue Guanchao looked at the missing picture scroll and vaguely felt that there was a treasure of the Wu clan in the missing picture scroll. The worry on his brows became more and more intense.
He pulled Song Siyuan and Lu Fengjian over and lowered his voice and said, "I thought in my heart that maybe Tang Dianrong didn't find the treasure at all. He got anxious looking for something, and that's why he tore up the people in Wu Coffin Town."
