Ancient Art of Sealing Ghosts

Two days later, we officially determined the destination and route. According to the uncle's calculation, our next goal is Kunming, Yunnan, where we need to pick up the goods, and then try to find a way to go deep into Cangshan Mountain.

The bluestone plate we brought out from the tomb before is called Xuanji Stone. According to the uncle, it is a magical stone plate recorded in the handbook of an old lama who has cultivated Taoism. The old lama was named Qiumo. He once traveled all over the country, read all the famous mountains and great rivers, and saw all the strange things. His life can be said to be rough and bizarre. He read a lot and understood a lot. He was even sent to participate in the construction of the emperor's tomb. Mo then recorded all the strange objects and strange things he encountered in his life in a handbook.

This handbook has been in the hands of many people successively. The uncle was lucky enough to witness it once. He never forgot it. After reading it once, he basically memorized all the contents in it. So according to the book, he found the two engraved maps. The dragon and tiger jade, and through these two pieces of jade, discovered the location of the mystery stone.

This bluestone plate is not only all-encompassing, it can be used to calculate the geomantic omen of the world, the life of human beings and animals, and it is also a strange and difficult map. Every symbol and word on it has its own ingenuity.

There is a rotating shaft in the middle of the stone plate. Turning the upper and lower layers of the stone plate can change the content of the map. Every two layers can be combined to form a map that marks the treasure caves of dragon veins. Most of these treasure caves of dragon veins are buried with the mysterious imperial tombs that are hidden very deep. and the ancient country.

Those people dumped the tomb of the Nanzhao king 70 years ago. No one knows how they found that tomb, and no one knows how they got in. Everything has become an unsolved mystery until now.

That's why the uncle used extreme methods, trying to determine the location of the ancient tomb through the mystery stone.

The uncle took a stone plate and pondered for two days and two nights before he figured out the mystery. He knew a lot about Fengshui, but he was hindered when he studied it. He sat in the yard of my house every day thinking hard, and his bitter face turned into a poop face. .

It wasn't until the grandfather went out for a walk one morning that he saw the uncle staring at the Xuanji Stone in a daze.

Since then, the uncle's attitude towards grandpa has completely changed, respect has turned into admiration, and his speech naturally reveals a feeling of reverence. I am afraid that in his eyes, grandpa is the real master.

Dao Feng, Ji Xuan and I don't know much about these things. When I saw the uncle coming to look for us with excitement, my first reaction was that he might have screwed up...

After being severely despised by the uncle, we realized that our goal was finally determined.

Before going out, accompanied by Ji Xuan, I lied to my mother, I said that I am now doing business with these people, and I will go to Yunnan to buy a batch of goods, so that my mother does not have to worry, Ji Xuan said I just went to make a start, learn how to talk about business by the way, and broaden my horizons, so that I can make a name for myself in Beijing in the future.

Even with the previous experience, my mother is still not at ease and a little bit disbelieving. Even if Ji Xuan told her face to face, her expression was very bad. Seeing that something bad was going to happen, the uncle hurriedly took out the ID from his bag. After a glance, I found that the certificate was actually the business certificate of an antique shop, and the uncle's ID card, etc., and the address was actually in Beijing.

When the mother saw the certificate, she gave a surprised "Yo", and Lao Chu came over in a timely manner and pretended to look at it, and then said, "I have been to this store, and the business is not bad. I didn't expect you to be the boss behind the scenes."

The uncle smiled and scratched his head and exchanged greetings with Lao Chu, dispelling the mother's doubts.

Now that I have a serious job, my mother will no longer obstruct me. In addition, I have already handed in all the money from the sale of the Ye Mingzhu Chain, so my mother has more confidence in my career. From suspecting me of drug trafficking and pyramid schemes, I became a As a white-collar elite, only I can understand the gap between them.

After all the affairs at home were settled, we hurriedly packed up our things and flew directly to Kunming in time for the [-]:[-] p.m. flight.

Although Kunming is not as cold as Beijing in this season, the temperature at night is not too high, and people can wear anything on the street.

As soon as we got off the plane, the uncle contacted someone to pick him up. By the way, he arranged a hotel for us to rest for one night, and then set off for Dali tomorrow morning.

The person who came to greet us was an old man in his 40s who seemed to be an acquaintance of the uncle. The two of them patted each other on the shoulder as soon as they met.

That man, nicknamed Old Wulu, was a native of Kunming. He traveled around Yunnan to gamble on stones for a living. He had been to all kinds of places in the Golden Triangle several times.

Gambling stones is an interesting business. It is to gain profits by trading rough jadeite. Unprocessed rough jadeite is called rough stone. The surface of this kind of rough stone is usually covered with a layer of weathered skin. You can’t know it just by looking at the surface. Whether it is good or bad, a rough stone can range from tens of thousands to millions.There is a jargon in the stone betting world: betting on stones is like betting on your life.Stone betting relies on eyesight and luck. If you win the bet, you will earn hundreds of times from one stone. If you lose the bet, you will lose your eye.

Old Ulu has been rampant in Yunnan for so many years, and he has never been mistaken, so the industry gave him the title of "Gambling Stone King", but most of them like to call him Old Ulu, because this guy is so naughty.

According to him, the seasons in Kunming are not obvious, and people can basically wear whatever they want throughout the year. One of the Eighteen Monsters in Yunnan is wearing clothes for all seasons at the same time.

"The temperature here has dropped since October. It's mostly cold in the morning and evening. It's warmer when the sun comes out at noon. You can wear short sleeves. Anyway, the temperature difference here is not that big. It's not as cold as you in winter, and not as hot as you in summer. But there is one thing. There is no heating in the south in winter, so it’s the same when it’s cold outside. The muddy horse is too cold, and the cold eggs are broken. Sometimes it’s even hotter outside than at home, because although the temperature is low, the sun shines outside. "Old Ulu led us to find a hotel, and he was muttering, although he can speak Mandarin, but when he was in a hurry, he inevitably mixed some local dialect, which made me half-understand and half-understand, listen quickly I thought he was swearing.

We rested at the hotel for one night and changed into timely clothes. The next morning we got into the old Ulu car and drove to Dali along the old road.

Although Old Ulu's car is old and one of the headlights is scratched, it is stronger and more durable. Because there are prohibited items in the car, he chose the old road to go.

Drivers on the old roads in Yunnan are generally afraid to drive. One is that the road here is too bumpy, and the other is that the road is full of twists and turns, which is very dangerous. Those who are not familiar with the road can easily make mistakes. Old Ulu used to pick up a female teacher. In Yunnan, the female teacher is from Shandong. After entering Yunnan, she couldn't even tell the difference between southeast and north.

I think this is probably the same as the roads in Beijing. Every place has the habit of driving in different places. Generally, novice drivers will have an adaptation period when driving in Beijing. The period is much better, at least there will be no more situations where you get stuck in the middle of the road and don't know where to drive.

Another advantage of these old roads in Yunnan is that no one checks them. The reason why many drivers choose the old roads is that they don’t have to pay tolls.

It is said that their novice drivers are all practiced on old roads by their coaches. The speed must not exceed forty, which is much safer than driving on the highway.

We spent an afternoon arriving in Dali, and then entered Cangshan Mountain under the leadership of the old Ulu.

Cangshan Mountain, also known as Diancang Mountain, is composed of [-] peaks from north to south. It starts from Eryuan Dengchuan in the north and ends at Tiansheng Bridge in Xiaguan in the south. Many places have become tourist attractions.

The place where the old Wulu took us was the place where Cangshan Mountain intersects with other mountain ranges. It is an undeveloped area with few people and a high altitude. As for the danger, the old Ulu didn't care about it, and I thought it would turn over the mountain a few times.

I looked at the scenery outside the car window in horror, thinking that this old road in Yunnan would be enough for me to boast for two years, and if I was a little afraid of heights, I would have to pee here.

Thinking about it, I turned my head to look at Dao Feng, who was sitting between me and Ji Xuan, and found that this man had already started to close his eyes and rested his mind, completely ignoring the danger in front of him, but it was the black cat that poked its head out from time to time With a second glance, it seems that he is also a little afraid of the steepness of the mountain road.

"How long will it take?" Ji Xuan leaned against the car door and said weakly, "This road is so bumpy, I'm about to throw up."

"Sister Xuan, you finally understand how we feel when we ride in your car." I gently reminded Ji Xuan that her own driving skills were not much better, and she was immediately hit by Queen Ji with two darts.

"Little girl, don't worry, I'll be there soon. The front is Lijiazhai." Old Wulu turned his head slightly and said to us while driving: "They were making troubles in closing the mountain a while ago, and they don't know what it is like now. A village People are fighting among themselves, people are panicking, you are afraid that this will be in vain."

"Closing the mountain?" The uncle was taken aback when he heard the words, and immediately asked, "Why did you close the mountain? Is this the only way into the mountain? When did you come here?"

Old Ulu paused for a moment, and replied: "Only five or six days ago, the people in the village said that a group of people sneaked in and made a big commotion. It seemed that the mountain was blown up with explosives. That's why the head of the Li family decided to close the mountain." If you don’t let those people come down, you have to let them die alive in the mountains.”
