Tomb Raider Gu Tomb Miscellaneous Notes

The Zhang faction and the ghost faction have always had a covenant that the well water does not violate the river water, but 15 years ago when the Zhang family assembled the nine stone statues, it caused a confrontation between the two factions.

The reason is that there is a strange phenomenon in inverted fighting, that is, among close relatives, the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren often do not fight together. Fathers often hide it from their sons, because it is a disgraceful thing after all, and the sons may also be fighting behind their backs.

This made it possible that among the people entrusted by the Zhang family many years ago, the next generation might turn to the ghost faction, so when the Zhang family summoned them, it turned out that some of them were members of the ghost faction, and the two factions were divided. Biehu was unwilling to cooperate, and had to be divided into two teams when the official operation began.

The stone statue and the remnant scroll were therefore divided into two parts.

But at that time, Mr. Zhang was not in a hurry, because Zhang Pai had a decisive trump card - Zhang Rui.

No one knows why Zhang Rui can understand the "Waveform Code", but the fact is that he is the only one who can understand what is written in the ancient books.

Mr. Zhang didn't regard his son as a human being at first, and he didn't care how young Zhang Ruishang was when he set off, he just thought he was useful, so he took him with him, so Zhang Yawen also joined the Inverted Team out of concern for his younger brother's safety .

When I learned about this, I realized that when I persuaded Zhang Rui to give up the risk of finding out the cause of his sister's death, his thinking was too simple. Dead, maybe he thought it was due to his "Ke Shang" fate, not for him, and Zhang Yawen would not fight against him.Perhaps only by finding out the truth can Zhang Rui be freed from guilt.

At the same time, I couldn't help calling Mr. Zhang a bastard!

The Duodou team arrived at Linzi, Shandong, the border of Qi State, where Tian Qi King's Mausoleum was located, but their destination was the backside of the mountain.

Prior to this, they spent two months integrating the materials in their hands, and it took a lot of work for Xiao Zhangrui to translate the contents of the lost and recovered pages.

Mr. Zhang was suspicious of ghosts. When he arrived in Linzi, he was afraid of being followed by ghosts, so he dispersed everyone and hid in the mountains for two days.

He is not only suspicious, but also mean, always thinking that Xiao Zhangrui has something to hide.In fact, what can a child who is less than eight years old hide?Mr. Zhang doesn't care, he wants to take little Zhang Rui to fight with him at ease.

This made Hua Jinglan, who had just been married and had no children, feel disgusted with Mr. Zhang's actions out of maternal feelings.

But Hua Jinglan is a very well-educated and quiet woman, she hardly ever argues with others over one thing.At the beginning, she said that she shouldn't bring the children to fight together, but Mr. Zhang was stubborn, so she felt that she was an outsider who didn't care about the Zhang family's affairs.

There are many veterans in the team, such as the descendants of Captain Mojin, the descendants of General Faqiu Zhonglang, the descendants of Taoists who moved mountains, etc., there are some amazing skills in Daodou, such as watching breath, smelling, Knowing the soil, these people showed their unique skills according to their own abilities, but they also searched in the mountains for two days and two nights before finding the dragon's lair.

Later, according to the content of the ancient book translated by Zhang Rui, they found the ancient tomb in the shade of Yugong Mountain. Everyone was ready to fight, but Hua Jinglan finally couldn't bear it anymore and said that children should not be allowed to follow them to the ancient tomb. .

Zhang Rui's sister was crying at that time, and Xiao Zhang Rui shivered in her sister's arms, but he was always silent in front of outsiders, and everyone in the Inverted Team thought he was dumb.Mr. Zhang is hard-hearted, and after arguing with Hua Jinglan, he still insists on taking his son to fight.

Hua Jinglan was indignant, and said that she would leave the team with her husband, and she didn't want to cooperate with black-hearted thieves like them.Mr. Zhang used threats to force them to follow the large army into the ancient tomb.

This ancient tomb is the tomb of a hermit in the Qi State during the Spring and Autumn Period. Of course, Mr. Zhang’s goal is not this tomb, but an ancient book records that there is a road hidden in the tomb. Go to the place where the treasure of King Qi Min is buried in the legend - the Underworld of the East Emperor.

There were quite a few experienced Tu Fuzi in the team. They looked around the tomb and found the "Road to the Underworld" soon, but the entrance to that road was blocked by the hermit's coffin.

So, they naturally wanted to move the coffin away.

Hua Jinglan told me that she remembered every detail of the scene at that time clearly. She always thought that the boy in Ms. Zhang's arms could not speak, but when they were about to move the coffin, the boy trembled and said: "There is a ghost... ...there is a ghost..."

Of course, Mr. Zhang didn't take it seriously, and called on everyone to move the coffin away, and then a group of people embarked on the "Road to Huangquan".

The road was very long, and Hua Jinglan said that in her impression, it was in the shape of the word "入". At first, she kept climbing up, and then went down again.On the way, many bones were buried in the rocks, and the scene was horrifying. That part of the road was simply tormenting people's willpower and psychology.

They arrived at a karst cave, there was water in the karst cave, and white mist floated on the surface of the water. The environment and atmosphere were eerie and strange, and the elders were all sighing.The strangest thing is that there is actually a large lake in such a cave, surrounded by mist, and the edge cannot be seen. It seemed to be a disordered clear and ethereal voice.

They couldn't estimate how deep the lake was, so they dared not go into the water. At this time, a bamboo raft floated over the lake. On the bamboo raft was a woman in white, holding a long pole to shake the raft.

Seeing this scene for the first time, everyone thought it was a female ghost.

The female ghost said, invite them to board the boat. This is the last bus to the ghost gate. If you miss it, you will be gone.

After finishing speaking, the female ghost let out a series of laughter like silver bells, echoing in the cave, enough to scare people out of their wits.Hua Jinglan said that her legs were already weak at that time, and if her husband hadn't supported her, she might have passed out.

At first, no one dared to move easily, Mr. Zhang told everyone that this is a thousand-year-old rice dumpling, but someone retorted that it was an immortal soul.Zongzi can be dealt with with black donkey hooves, but spirit bodies are in trouble.

The female ghost seemed to be listening to their quarrel with great interest, and from time to time she laughed like a silver bell.

For some reason, Xiao Zhang Rui went down to the ground, went towards the female ghost, and climbed onto the bamboo raft.The female ghost shook her long sleeves, and even touched Xiao Zhang Rui's face. Xiao Zhang Rui looked blank, as if he had been cast by a spell by a ghost, and did not respond.

When Zhang Yawen saw her brother get on the ghost raft, she was so anxious that she almost cried. Although she was frightened to death, she still jumped on the bamboo raft and quickly hugged little Zhang Rui.

At this time, the female ghost said again, if they don't get on the boat, the boat will leave.

Mr. Zhang was heartbroken, and jumped onto the bamboo raft, followed by some other people, including Hua Jinglan and her husband, and of course, a few stayed on the shore.

The female ghost pushed down the embankment lightly with a long pole, and the bamboo raft floated out along the water, and soon drifted into the thick fog, and there was nothing else to be seen except the fog.

The tops of their heads were also shrouded in mist, which was pressed down heavily, making people feel breathless.

After drifting for a while, everyone began to feel dizzy and inexplicably sleepy. Of course, they were on guard, so they tried their best to stay awake.

The female ghost said, tell them not to fall asleep, otherwise they will not be able to wake up.The female ghost said again, don't look down the water.

Someone peeked out of curiosity, but was pushed off the raft by the female ghost. With a "plop", the person sank without any struggle, without sound.

At that time, Hua Jinglan felt that she had stepped into the gate of hell with one foot, and maybe the gate of hell was waiting for them in front of her.When people are scared to the limit, they don't feel so scary anymore. They are dead anyway. Since there is no need to struggle, Hua Jinglan suddenly calms down a lot.

Soon, they finally saw the shore, and the bamboo raft floated to the shore. The female ghost invited them to get off the boat, but said that they would keep Xiao Zhangrui.

Zhang Yawen was terrified, cried and knelt down and begged the ghost to let her brother go, and said that she was willing to stay with the ghost instead of her brother.

The female ghost smiled, and suddenly pointed at Mr. Zhang and said, "Tigers are poisonous and don't eat their children, but I didn't expect that there is such a cold family relationship in the world. What you do today will definitely have retribution in the future. As for this child, if you don't want him, let him go!" I'll take it."

Mr. Zhang must have the power of concentration beyond ordinary people, but in that situation he still stared at Zhang Rui and the female ghost coldly, as if they were the same kind.Zhang Yawen cried loudly, hugging her younger brother and refused to let go, the bamboo raft floated out again at an extremely fast speed, and disappeared into the dense fog in a blink of an eye, Hua Jinglan and the others heard Miss Zhang's cry echoing in the cave, mixed with resentment The curse gradually moved away and disappeared.

The scene was horrifying, and when I think about it afterwards, I feel that they were bewitched.

Mr. Zhang said that people have already been taken away, so it's useless to worry, and the first thing they have to worry about is how to get out of this ghost place.

Hua Jinglan found it ironic that she desperately wanted to come in when she was outside, but only after she got in did she realize that this is not a place for living people to come in.

But they had no other choice, and the remaining few people followed Mr. Zhang and continued to walk forward. Slowly, they saw a big "well" in front of them. They called it a well because it was square. There is a deep hole in the square, the bottom of the hole cannot be seen from the hole, and it is unknown how many meters deep into the ground, and the walls of the hole have bricks that people can climb down.

They climbed down for a long time, and finally reached the bottom of the cave.There was a trap door at the bottom, and after opening, they entered a huge tomb.

As soon as they entered the tomb, they found that someone had been here, because there were traces of shovels on the floor tiles at the door, and dents made by iron crutches.

Mr. Zhang remembered that there was an old man in the ghost school who was leaning on an iron crutch. The old man had stone statues and fragments of scrolls in his hands.

Mr. Zhang was immediately very annoyed, because they came here to find the "Road to the Yellow Spring" according to the records in the Zhang family's ancient books, and then arrived at this tomb.The ghost faction didn't have such a thing in their hands, so why did they come here one step ahead of them?Could it be that the Guipai people also have clues that they don't know about?

This question didn't bother them for long, because soon, when they walked into the tomb, they ran into the ghost sent who was already in the tomb.

The ghosts didn't come in the way they came, but they won't say where they got into the tomb.

Mr. Zhang quarreled with the leader of the other party, and then several people quarreled with each other, accusing the other party of concealing the truth, defrauding information, and wanting to monopolize the treasure.

At this time, Hua Jinglan felt dizzy and wanted to vomit, so she was accompanied by her husband to rest.

After a group of people had finished arguing, someone suddenly said: "There is nothing in this tomb, only a pile of pottery, not enough for us here!"

Someone from the Zhang faction sneered: "This is the tomb of the Warring States period. How could there be only pottery? Maybe you have already hidden the treasure!"

The leader of the ghost faction said: "We have always believed that Mr. Zhang has credibility, but you have concealed the information and did not share it with us. There are nine stone statues, but they are dismantled into independent ones, confusing the public and using us all. Now you dare to say We took the treasure to ourselves?"

Mr. Zhang said coldly: "Jiang Shan, don't push yourself too hard."

Hua Jinglan doesn't know Jiang Shan, and she is not familiar with anyone here except Mr. Zhang.She only felt that a group of people began to shift to new conflicts, and the quarrel was more fierce than before, and the strange faces were ferocious and cunning.She felt that things were a little weird, as if everyone's emotions suddenly became irritable for no reason. The people here are all experienced veterans in the fighting world. Shouldn't they blame each other like this when encountering such a situation?What's the point of accusing now?

Hua Jinglan rubbed her temples, feeling that she was also very anxious, and an inexplicable resentment floated up in her heart, and she wanted to vent it.It's just that she never gets angry, so she endures it.

At this moment, Zhang Yawen suddenly appeared in the tomb, and no one noticed how she walked in. When Hua Jinglan saw this girl, she only felt that she was a little different from her previous impression, but she couldn't tell the difference , because the one in front of her is indeed herself, her appearance and clothes have not changed, but her expression seems to have become a little calmer.

When everyone saw Zhang Yawen, they panicked as if they had seen a ghost.Only old man Zhang was still calm. When Zhang Yawen walked towards him, old man Zhang didn't take half a step back.

Zhang Yawen showed a little tiredness on her face. She grabbed her father's hand and said, "Father, I... I found a tomb room with many jade slips. Anyway, come with me!"

In fact, everyone felt that there was something strange in their hearts, but they still followed Zhang Yawen to the tomb, where there were mountains of jade slips piled up to the top of the tomb, and there were ten altars around, but the altars were not placed on the altar There are ten wooden boxes, sealed in a solidified red liquid, which are still bright in color and intact.

The eternal lamp seems to have been burning for a thousand years, endlessly, illuminating all the treasures in the tomb, mysterious and full of temptation.

Hua Jinglan said that Mr. Zhang believed that those jade slips might be documents from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period or even earlier, but there were too many of them, and it would be pointless to take only some of them away (Mr. That place is not right, I won’t come in again after getting out).

There were a total of nine people present, including Zhang Yawen, they made up exactly ten of them. Mr. Zhang told the Guipai people that it is a rule to divide the loot according to the head, so they each took a box out.

When Zhang Rui and I analyzed this paragraph later, we felt that there was one thing that couldn't be figured out, that is, after sorting out the ins and outs, we thought that one of the ten wooden boxes was the earliest one. Zhang Ci asked me to go to the bar to open it. If there is only the "Kowloon Qiankun Box", then the other one is the one mentioned in Ms. Hua's letter.

But in this way, there is a strange place. The incense burner and I have seen the eight in the bottom circular tomb of King Ming's tomb (the tomb of King Ming is used here to distinguish it from King Qi Min, so as not to confuse everyone). The mutton fat jade box, at that time I also thought that the wooden box in Zhang Ci's hand was originally taken out of the mutton fat jade box. After taking it away, a silk book was replaced in the jade box.In this way, how could the same wooden box appear in what Mr. Zhang and the others thought were the East Emperor's Underworld?

Later, we continued to deliberate along this line of thought, but we will not mention it here for the time being.

There is a tomb passage in the tomb full of jade slips. Zhang Yawen said that she came in through this tomb passage and found them.

The tomb passage is surprisingly long. Hua Jinglan remembers walking for a long, long time. In the dark underground, everyone felt as if they were lost and confused. They walked outside somehow. Back to the world.

The last paragraph Hua Jinglan said to me was: "Later, my husband and I went abroad and settled in Australia in order to avoid this experience. Not long after, we felt that our bodies had changed, and we couldn't tell at first. What was wrong, slowly I found that my husband often had some hobbies that he had never had before. He started smoking, became anxious about some trivial things, and had severe dark phobia. He started not sleeping at night and could not fall asleep until daytime. Neurasthenia, sensitive and timid, and... He also said that I had changed, but I didn't feel it myself. I kept telling him that I hadn't changed, but he always quarreled with me because of it. Later, I knew that I had changed , my body is changing..."

When she said this, she suddenly began to tremble violently, and she kept scraping her cheeks with her fingers, as if desperately trying to scrape off the flesh on her face, her expression became ferocious, she lowered her head and panted heavily, as if soon Will die from lack of oxygen.

I was startled and jumped up from the chair: "Mrs. Hua!"

Hua Jinglan suddenly raised her head and stared at me, I was stunned for a moment, but she suddenly yelled and rushed towards me.Unprepared, Lao Tzu was directly pushed to the ground by her.

A woman's strength is not much, but a madman is different.I didn't dare to mess around, for fear of hurting her.

The incense burner pulled me up, and pushed Hua Jinglan away cleanly, then he quickly walked to Hua Jinglan's side, clasped her hands behind her back, pressed her neck with one hand, and pressed her against the table Then he turned to me, and it seemed that it was the first time he said in a more intense tone: "Get out!"

I was taken aback for a moment, I was in a mess, I felt a nameless anger in my heart, I didn't know what to do: "Censer, she—"

"You go out first, I will explain to you about Huajinglan's situation later." When the incense burner was speaking, he had already taken out a rolled cloth bag, pulled out a silver needle from it, and aimed it at the spot on Huajinglan's brain. The acupuncture points are slowly pierced in.

I was terrified when I saw it. Although I knew it was acupuncture and the incense burner probably wanted to use this method of stimulating nerves to calm down Hua Jinglan, but facing a weak woman, his cold expression and unhesitating gestures still made me feel uncomfortable. Let me tremble.

Probably seeing that I didn't move, the incense burner turned to me: "Don't you believe me?"

I don't know if he is asking if he believes he will explain the situation to me, or if he doesn't believe that his acupuncture and moxibustion skills can cure Hua Jinglan.

"No, I..." I was so upset that I couldn't think of what to say. It was useless to think about staying in the room, so I had to back out and wait for the incense burner to give me an explanation.
