Guanzhong Tomb Robbery Notes

The person holding the flashlight in the woods was the man in the wide-brimmed hat and the township official we had seen before.

They both looked haggard and sat on the ground with their backs against a big tree.

I peeked at them curiously.

I think they should have finished and gone back long ago.

How come you're still sitting in this grove so late at night?

Didn’t they find Han Gaotian?

Even if you don’t find it, you don’t have to stay in the mountains overnight.

It's really strange.

laugh!

The sound of a match being struck was heard.

The township official lit the cigarette in his mouth and took a deep puff.

"Don't just smoke it yourself, give me one too." The man in the wide-brimmed hat stretched out his hand dissatisfiedly, raising his index and middle fingers to make a V shape.

The township official rolled his eyes.

Reluctantly, she poured out a cigarette and placed it between his two fingers.

"You only know how to smoke my cigarettes. You smoked most of the whole pack of cigarettes."

"mean!"

The man in the wide-brimmed hat muttered something and lit a cigarette.

He took a puff of his cigarette and continued to mutter, "We've circled this place three times. We must have hit a wall."

"Don't scare me!"

The township official was a little timid and shrank closer to the man wearing a wide-brimmed hat.

The man in the wide-brimmed hat sneered, "What's the point of scaring you? You made the mark on the tree yourself. Are we back to square one again?"

The township official raised his head with some trepidation and looked at the mark on the tree trunk.

The mark was an arrow carved with a knife, representing the direction they would go the second time they passed through.

"I don't need to look at the markings. I'd recognize this tree even if it turned to ash!"

"I've passed this tree three times tonight!"

"I told them there was something fishy about Han Gaotian digging up mass graves, and there must be something wrong, but they just wouldn't believe me!"

"They even accused me of being superstitious and forced me to come to Han Gaotian..."

The man in the wide-brimmed hat frowned in dissatisfaction.

"Don't be like Xianglin Sao. When you encounter a problem, you need to find a way to solve it."

"I wonder if the ghost wall will disappear after daybreak."

"If we can't disperse..."

The township official shuddered all over and tightly grasped the arm of the man in the wide-brimmed hat with both hands: "Stop, stop talking, just tell me what you can do!"

The man in the wide-brimmed hat counted on his fingers and said, "Black dog blood can dispel evil spirits, but we didn't bring a black dog with us."

"Cock's comb blood would be fine too. How about catching a pheasant and trying it?"

"But we've circled three times and haven't encountered a single living thing. It's probably hard to find a pheasant either."

"Old Xu, how about the blood from the tip of your tongue?"

"Ah?!" Lao Xu was stunned for a moment, then covered his mouth with his hands and shook his head quickly.

He said in a muffled voice, "I'm not a Yuanyang boy, so I'm useless."

The man in the wide-brimmed hat spread his hands and said, "This won't work, and that won't work. You dragged me into this, and you can't let me bleed."

"Well...you've smoked half a pack of my cigarettes." Lao Xu's voice became softer and softer as he spoke.

At this time, Taoist Master Zhang squatted down beside me and asked softly, "What's going on with them?"

"I said I ran into a ghost wall and I walked around it three times but couldn't get out."

"Are we also trapped in a ghost wall?" I asked curiously.

Ghost walls are usually regional.

As long as you enter this area, you will be affected by the ghost wall and will be unable to get out of the area by circling around in circles.

Taoist Master Zhang shook his head: "This is not a ghost wall."

"Not a ghost wall? Then they..." I pointed at the two people.

The man in the wide-brimmed hat was still trying to persuade Lao Xu to bleed a little from the tip of his tongue.

Lao Xu was a little hesitant, but he finally made up his mind and closed his eyes: "Why don't I go out?"

"It's a deal, I'll just bleed once!"

The man in the wide-brimmed hat grinned and said, "That's for sure. If it doesn't work, let's just wait quietly until dawn."

It seems that he is also confused.

I just want to make Lao Xu bleed a little.

He is a slippery person.

Just as Lao Xu was about to bite his tongue, he suddenly stopped and said, "Well, what should I do if I bite it and it bleeds?"

"This……"

The man in the wide-brimmed hat thought for a moment and said, "Just spray it out after you bite it. Yes, just spray it out!"

"As long as there is enough Yang energy in the blood, the ghost wall can be broken."

He wasn't talking nonsense.

The blood at the tip of a person’s tongue is the most yang thing, which Taoists call “Zhen Yang Jian”.

It has a very strong ability to exorcise evil spirits and suppress demons.

Of course, that can only be done by a Yuanyang boy who is also a Taoist master.

It is difficult for ordinary people to break through ghost walls, let alone exorcise evil spirits and suppress monsters.

He really has no idea what to do.

Try to trick Lao Xu into bleeding as a last resort.

Lao Xu believed him.

He bit the tip of his tongue hard and let out a scream.

"Ouch! It hurts, Si Nuo." Old Xu was in so much pain that he couldn't speak clearly.

I felt blood coming out of the tip of my tongue, and I tilted my neck back to spit out the blood.

"puff!"

Blood foam splattered all over the sky.

It was quiet all around, nothing unusual happened.

"I'm spitting blood. Has this ghost wall been broken?"

"We won't know until we go. Let's go again and try."

The man in the wide-brimmed hat stood up with the help of a tree, patted his butt and walked out of the woods.

"Wait for me!"

Lao Xu followed in a hurry.

The two walked out of the woods, and Taoist Master Zhang pointed in the opposite direction and said, "That's the mass grave over there."

"It seems they were bewitched before they even reached the mass grave, and are stuck here, unable to leave."

"insanity?"

"I should have thought of Gu earlier."

I said as I looked in the direction of the mass grave.

Due to the terrain, you can only vaguely see the bulging grave mound over there.

"Old Zhang, do you think Han Gaotian and the others are still burying people in mass graves?"

"I looked when I was going down the mountain, and there was no one over there." Taoist Master Zhang said, and drew a line on the ground.

He drew the map on the back of the bronze mask in a few seconds.

I took out the bronze mask in surprise for comparison.

His paintings are almost proportionally enlarged!

This shows that Taoist Master Zhang has an extraordinary memory.

Seeing me comparing it with the picture on the mask, he chuckled.

"The key to finding this dot is at the intersection of these two mountains on the map. Look over there."

I looked in the direction of his finger.

This is the direction the man in the wide-brimmed hat and the township cadres were walking in just now.

That is exactly the intersection of two mountains, which corresponds exactly to the treasure map.

I immediately became excited.

"The dot is west of where the two mountains meet, which is our side?"

Taoist Priest Zhang nodded slightly. "Yes, this picture shows the area between the two mountains and the hilltop east of the mass grave."

"According to the proportion, the dot is near this forest."

He said, tapping his toes lightly.

My heart started pounding.

Treasure right before your eyes?!

Looking down from a high place, the forest looks like a circle!

Could it be that it really corresponds to the dots in the picture?

No matter whether there is treasure or not, you have to use a pole to test it out!

Taoist Master Zhang seemed to see through my thoughts.

He stroked his goatee and said, "Tomorrow you bring your men to dig, and I'll make arrangements around it."

Only then did I calm down.

I thought of the old man from Xiangxi who has always led us by the nose.

He hid in the dark and never showed up, and no one knew what conspiracy he was plotting.

It would be best to take advantage of his own trick and deal with him this time.

I nodded and was about to speak when a flashlight shone over me.

Then the man in the wide-brimmed hat shouted, "Who's in the woods? Stop playing tricks and come out!"

"Or I'll shoot!"
