Chapter 836 Guanshan Taibao
The red girl who came down after Chen Yulou asked, "Boss, Daoist Ou, what's going on here? It looks creepy."

Ouyang Fei said in a deep voice: "This deep well is the alchemy well in the Pingshan Alchemy Palace. The alchemy that refines the Yin elixir goes up, and such a place is needed, and those ancient coffins were secretly stolen from various places by the alchemists. Come to burn the alchemy head."

"In ancient times, people believed that zombie meat could be used as medicine, and it was called 'suffocating incense', because zombies that died without decaying borrowed the dragon's energy from the earth's veins. The dragon's energy is invisible and difficult to capture, but when zombie meat is cooked, it becomes You can extract the dragon energy from the corpse."

"As for the coffin containing the bones, the raw materials include wood, stone, jade, copper, etc., which have been buried in the ground for many years, and have also absorbed the aura of the earth veins, which can be used as the way of the furnace for alchemy."

"It has been known since ancient times that you can become an immortal by taking Shao Dan. Who doesn't want to seek a path to immortality that can eliminate emptiness and tranquility, come in and out of nothingness, rise beyond the mundane world, and be the same as heaven and earth without aging?"

"It is possible to cultivate the truth and refine one's nature. There are differences in internal and external elixir methods, and most alchemists are unwilling to use dead people to refine yin elixir."

"I didn't expect that although this Pingshan Mountain is an alchemy palace for the royal family to burn elixirs, it is actually a place filled with filth and evil. In order to burn the real elixirs, they would resort to such unscrupulous means, which is outrageous."

Not to mention Miss Hong, even Wang Ping's throat tightened when she heard it, and her chest felt congested. She hurriedly ran the formula, and the true essence flowed through, which made her feel better. She thought to herself that if she really vomited out, It's a small matter of embarrassment, but it will inevitably arouse suspicion.

Even Ouyang Fei, the son, knew about this in detail, but her mother didn't know about it. Isn't that a big problem?

But the red girl didn't have so many scruples, she hid aside and vomited, Wang Ping hurried over, pressed her palm on her back, and injected a burst of real energy, which made her calm down.

"Thank you, Aunt Ping, Boss, I don't feel comfortable staying here, so I'll go up first." Miss Hong recovered, but she really didn't want to stay here any longer. After thanking Wang Ping, she said to Chen Yulou.

Chen Yulou understood very well, nodded and said: "Go! Keep an eye on the outside, remember, let the brothers encounter things they don't understand, and don't move around."

"understood."

Wang Ping also followed: "I'm going up too. No one is watching from above, so I don't feel relieved."

After talking about going out of Danjing with Miss Hong, Ouyang Fei felt good when he saw this, lest his mother feel uncomfortable after watching Xiling Lishi's methods.

"Brother Chen, it seems that the nobles of the Yuan Dynasty are not buried in the Danjing of the Dan Palace. They are still in empty tombs. Let the brothers collect the gold and jade treasures!"

"Okay." Chen Yulou nodded and directed his warriors to clean up the corpses and coffins piled at the bottom of the well.

The warriors covered their faces with black gauze and wore gloves on their hands. They endured the stench and bravely rummaged through the pile of dead people. They first smashed open all the coffins and scratched the coffin boards. The gold, silk and jade on it.

Then the hooks and shovels were put up again, hooking the mouths of the ancient corpses, dragging out the corpses one by one, first tied them up with ropes, and then cut the mouths with knives and gouged out the intestines to obtain pearls and jade. The artifacts hidden in the corpse are often more valuable.

The method of unloading the hills and turning the fight is naturally different from Mojin Xiaowei. Mojin means "touching", and it's just a search back and forth on the corpse with your hands.

Xiling, on the other hand, means "unloading", that is, dismantling. Even if the ancient corpse has gold teeth embedded in its mouth, they will either hit it with a hammer or use pliers to remove it.

If the mouth of the ancient corpse contains pearls and jade, it will be considered unlucky if it falls into the hands of Xiling Lishi. If the corpse is stiff and the mouth cannot be opened, the jawbone should be split open with an axe.

In ancient times, the customs of burying the dead were different. Some people hoped that the corpse would be liberated after death.

There are even more different ways to preserve the body's shape. The rich are rich and the poor are poor, so some use jade boxes and jade clothes to hold the body, some use cool jade to block the various orifices of the human body, and some contain beauty beads, Some people poured arsenic and mercury into corpses, and poor people who were buried sparsely even kept an old coin as a "gush money".

There are almost no taboos in Xiling stripping corpses to extract pearls and jade, and all kinds of methods are used to the extreme. This is also related to the tradition left by the Red Eyebrow Army back then.

At that time, the Chimei Uprising stole all over the mausoleum of the Han Emperor and destroyed the corpses of the ancestors of those in power. This was just a way to boost morale in the peasant uprising army.

The rebel army, who cares how noble the corpses in the ancient tombs were, even if there were no artifacts in the corpses, they would still do harm to them, or burn them or dismember them, and the methods were extremely cruel. It's like a sea of ​​blood and deep hatred.

Therefore, Chen Yulou's Xiling warriors still use the techniques and rules that have been left in the early years.

"what……"

"The zombie... is... the corpse king in the ancient tomb of Pingshan!"

At this moment, Ouyang Fei and Chen Yulou, who were discussing the possible location of the ancient tomb chamber of the Yuan Dynasty, suddenly heard the exclamation of the warriors under them, and hurried over.

"Have you forgotten what I just said? Don't scream, the Corpse King is not here, otherwise we will find the main tomb." Ouyang Fei scolded dissatisfiedly, and all the warriors fell silent.

Chen Yulou walked to the place where the commotion occurred and immediately saw clearly that it was a corner. It should have been covered by many corpses before. At this time, the corpses were moved away by the warriors, and a figure sitting cross-legged was immediately revealed behind them.

The man was dressed in black clothes, boots and hat, and was dressed like an impermanent evil spirit. His attire was very strange. He was fat and tall, with a lion's nose and a wide mouth, and a beard like a halberd on his face. This was an ancient corpse that was dead and incorruptible.

"This is... Guanshan Taibao?" Ouyang Fei said with a hint of surprise in his tone.

Chen Yulou's heart skipped a beat, and he said in surprise, "Brother Ou, you mean, this is the Guanshan Taibao of the Ming Dynasty? Could it be that the Pingshan ancient tomb has already been visited by someone else?"

Ouyang Fei shook his head and said: "That's not the case. The Guanshan Taibao probably didn't succeed. I finally understand why there is that paper man in the palace. The Guanshan Taibao is good at puppetry. Not surprisingly, that puppet The paper figurine should be the puppet of the Guanshan Taibao."

Chen Yulou sighed: "The matter of Guanshan has always been mysterious. In the past, it was only a legend and unofficial history. It turns out that there is really a Guanshan Taibao in this world."

Therefore, according to the old legend, among the tomb robbers in the world, only Faqiu, Mojin, Qianshan, and Xiling are the only ones with names and traditions. The same thing, they are all troops under Cao Cao who specialize in fighting for money.

After the Faqiu Seal was destroyed, only the Captain Mojin wearing the Mojin Talisman was left in the world, and the rest were the outnumbered Xiling Litu and the Taoist who moved the mountain with many changes.

Apart from these three branches, they are all looters and civilian thieves, some of them are a bit famous, and they are just those who carry corpses in the cellar in the south, and the rest are not worth mentioning.

However, in the history of tomb robbery in the past few hundred years, there has always been an extremely mysterious legend. It is said that there were a group of people who were fighting against each other in ancient times. , their methods and motives for robbing tombs have never been known, and once they do something, even the gods can't guess it.

The legend is limited to this. People in the world know nothing more about them. It is difficult to judge whether the legendary mountain viewing deeds are true or false.

Unexpectedly, today I bumped into the body of a mountain-watching Taibao in the Pingshan Underground Palace. Looking at the strange appearance and behavior of this person and the items he carried, it was really strange that he had never seen it before in his life.
