Chapter 52

round.Sun Lao San bowed to the incense burner with his hands clasped together. "This plan's future is uncertain, its path fraught with danger. If we die here in this tomb, we will have no regrets. But...Hearing my words, the man said with red eyes: "Chen, you've persisted for so long, I didn't expect that in the end you would still........"

"I'll offer my condolences," I replied casually.

"Oh, by the way, you just said you've been here for six or seven months What happened Did you get lost and can't find a way out That can't be right..."

"Heh.... the way out" He looked at me, a cold smile playing on his lips. "Do you think I haven't been looking The space beneath this Zhou Dynasty tomb was deliberately created by the tomb owner, just like a private garden for him."

Alright, kid, let's go. Take this woman with you. If you don't give up, I'll take you to see something. Once you see it, you'll understand.

So, I put Hong Jie back on my shoulders and followed the man forward.

This man didn't answer me directly, but as I walked alongside him, I made my own guesses.

Huang Bei's old face and that strange, fragrant musk could induce hallucinations. The reason we weren't affected was because we woke up quickly. It was all thanks to the powder San Ge obtained from his friends in the martial arts world.

If we think this way, wouldn't the Southern bandits who stole graves also have hallucinations because there was no such medicine powder, so they ended up killing each other in the end This person sometimes acts crazy and foolishly imitates others' speech, and sometimes behaves normally. Isn't this due to the aftereffects of hallucinations

Of course, these are all just my guesses. If the parties involved are unwilling to disclose, there are some details that I am impossible to guess completely.

Following this underground river for over an hour, we came to a fork in the road. One small river flowed east, and the other flowed west. The middle was a dead end, impassable, all stones.

"Well, did you see it on the way here" he suddenly turned back to ask me.

I looked at the scene before me and frowned, "This Western Zhou tomb also has this structure on its surface. Overall, it's a T-shape, which is basically consistent with the flow direction of this underground river."

He clapped his hands and praised, "You kid actually have some vision. That's right, this up-and-down tomb burial layout was intentionally done by the tomb owner. This is the hidden dragon vein under Feimeng Mountain. At the same time, the cave has been dark and damp for thousands of years without seeing sunlight. Over time, it has become what the feng shui masters call a yin area."

"I think this tomb owner probably wants to be reborn by relying on the nourishment of the dragon vein and the damp ground..." He talked to himself as he led me through the way.

The more I listened, the more astonished I became, my heart pounding wildly in my chest, afraid that what he was saying might be true.

After a person dies, before they are buried, their hair and nails continue to grow. This is a common phenomenon, and many people have heard of it.

But some people spread rumors, and over time, the saying "zombie" came about.

But, ghouls and zombies are completely different. Those hopping zombies you see in old Hong Kong movies are just a product of those times. In comparison, ghouls are much more sinister.

As far as I know.

The terms "shade corpse," "damp shade," and "non-decayed corpse" all refer to the same thing. Both the Tang Dynasty and Song Dynasty versions of the Burial Scriptures provide detailed original texts on this.

"A corpse with a yin aura, divided into dryness and moisture. Its first characteristic: if the dry part persists for a long time, hair will regenerate on it. A corpse with a mouth half an inch open brings misfortune to three generations of its family line. If its mouth is one inch wide, misfortune spreads to six generations of relatives. And if its mouth opens three inches, all descendants will die out."

Secondly, if one lies with their back against a shady mountain, their head resting on the shade and their feet on shaded ground, it is considered great evil. Upon discovery, living people should not approach, and masters should not interfere. It is hoped that future generations will keep this in mind.

This is the original text from the old edition of the Book of Funerals.

"Well You scared, kid" the man said to me with a squint.

"Don't be afraid! What am I afraid of" I looked at him resolutely and said, "They are just dead people. They are all made up stories from ancient times. I'm not afraid at all!"

"Well, well, the little one has guts," he said, continuing down the path without looking back.

Actually... he didn't quite notice that.

When I spoke up for Sister Hong.

My leg muscles are trembling. reacted."That's right.... " I glanced at him and said, "Our original plan was to find tombs, the treasure chambers, not the Black Water City Lord's City. To put it simply, it's like we were originall...
