Urban Witcher

Ye Shaoyang said: "How do you say that?"

"It's very simple. If this tomb is from before the Yuan Dynasty, then it has nothing to do with Zhao Yu. If it's from the Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty, then it's impossible...Only during the Yuan Dynasty, the Zhao family was considered orthodox. , Only those survivors of the Southern Song Dynasty would think of restoring the country. In Ming Dynasty, the Mongols have been driven away by the Han people, so what's the use of the royal blood of the Song Dynasty?"

Song Xiaoyu also lit an oil lamp, pointed at the gap and said, "Where did this hole come from?"

Miao Xin looked around the cave and said, "I suspect that the cave outside was created by the change of the mountain. Afterwards, there may be something like rats or pangolins. Feeling the coolness inside, they made holes here and pierced the tomb passage..."

When Mao Xiaofang heard this, he couldn't help interjecting, "Can a pangolin make such a big hole?"

Miao Xin gave him a blank look and said: "Listen to me, under the ancient tomb, Yin and Yang are separated. As long as you don't touch Yang Qi, even if there is an evil thing, it is still in a deep sleep and will not change after being stung. But here With a hole, although the yin qi leaks out, the yang qi will also enter. The evil things like zombies inside will feel the yang qi shrinking. After waking up, they will keep looking for the source. I want to absorb more yang energy, so I made this hole bigger."

Although it was a guess, several people present felt that this analysis was reasonable.

Miaoxin took the three-color lotus lantern from Lu Xiaoqing's hand, squatted beside the small hole in the tomb passage, took out a brush from her bag, dipped it in some kind of medicinal powder, and smeared it a few times on the tomb brick at the bottom of the cave. The gray tomb bricks immediately turned a layer of black under the light of the fire, and then evaporated.

"This is corpse gas, that's right, not long ago, there must have been zombies crawling out of here."

Ye Shaoyang and Mao Xiaofang looked at each other, and they both took a deep breath. Although they are not afraid of zombies and the like, this is an ancient tomb after all, and it is the territory of zombies. Who knows how many zombies there are down there? What level of zombie? So now that they have found evidence that there are zombies below, the two are still a little nervous.

"Okay, it's good if there are zombies!" Chen Xiaoyu was gearing up, "We are going to kill a lot today, because we are afraid that there are too few zombies."

"Don't worry, no matter how many zombies there are, I will let you deal with them all." Ye Shaoyang said, thinking to himself, I hope you can still maintain this kind of unafraid of death.

Miao Xin didn't let everyone in first, but took out a piece of yellow mounting paper, folded it into the shape of a paper crane, and after finishing the eyes with a cinnabar pen, let go of her hand, blew on the paper crane, and read: If the yin and yang are manifested, if you see the yang and sink, if you see the yin and turn back, go.”

The paper crane fluttered its wings and flew in along the hole.

Ye Shaoyang understood her motives for doing this, so he stretched out his hand to try it in the cave, and said, "There is no wind coming from the hole, and if there is wind here, it means there is oxygen below, so there should be no problem."

After finishing speaking, Ye Shaoyang turned his head to look, and found that several people were looking at him with strange eyes, not knowing what was going on, Miao Xin said: "What did you just say, Yang Qi? How can there be Yang Qi here? "

"Uh..." Ye Shaoyang finally understood what was going on, patted his forehead, and said, "I'm not talking about yang energy, but... oxygen. It is because people absorb the oxygen in the air that they can survive."

In this era, modern science has not been popularized, at least in China, there is no concept of "oxygen", so Ye Shaoyang had to popularize it for them.

Wu Tong said: "Where did you hear this? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"This..." Ye Shaoyang didn't know how to explain.

"He made it up himself, pretending to be shocking." Chen Xiaoyu sarcastically said to Ye Shaoyang without losing the opportunity.

Ye Shaoyang couldn't explain clearly, so he simply didn't explain. Chen Xiaoyu also thought that he was forced to question him and had nothing to say, so he was even more proud, and satirized Ye Shaoyang a few words.

After waiting for a stick of incense, the origami crane driven by Miao Xin's method flew out of the cave again, but after flapping its wings a few times, it shrank immediately, turned black, and turned into a pile of dry paper... …

Miao Xin was shocked, and said: "There is a yin nest below, and the yin energy is extremely heavy, it is not a good omen."

Chen Xiaoyu said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of? Soldiers come to block you. Even if there is a corpse king inside, we have nothing to be afraid of."

Miao Xin stared at the wreckage of the paper crane that had turned into a ball of rotten paper and said: "Having said that, it's better to be careful, and you must remember to follow me, Shaoyangzi, come and hold the lamp."

Ye Shaoyang knew that she subconsciously felt that she was the most useless, so she let herself do this job, smiled, and took the three-color lotus lantern from Lu Xiaoqing. Mao Xiaofang looked at the lamp, and joked with Ye Shaoyang: "Shaoyangzi, if there is the 'flashlight' you mentioned at this time, it must be much more useful than this lamp."

Ye Shaoyang said: "Of course."

"What electricity? Magical artifact?" Miao Xin asked.

"Ahem, no, no, let's continue." Ye Shaoyang coughed twice, and illuminated her with a three-color lotus lamp.

Miao Xin took out three sticks of incense, and after lighting them, asked Ye Shaoyang to hold them, and told him to pay attention at all times, if the incense went out, he must tell her, and then everyone would leave immediately.

Ye Shaoyang immediately understood the reason for doing this. It had nothing to do with supernatural powers. It was actually the simplest scientific principle: the so-called people light candles and ghosts blow lamps. I thought it was a ghost, so I had to retreat immediately.

In fact, the candle was extinguished because of the lack of oxygen in the ancient tomb... But it was really in the depths of the tomb, and it was convenient to use candles to detect oxygen when there was no need to move around. When walking in the tomb, it usually gets deeper and deeper. Maybe there will be no oxygen while walking, but it is not convenient to walk around with candles, so use incense. If the incense goes out, it is naturally due to lack of oxygen. Although people in the past did not know the principle of fire burning, they also summed up such principles in practice.

As for the three-color lotus lamp, because it does not use kerosene, even if there is no air, it must have Yin Qi, and it can still burn, so it does not have the function of detection.

Miaoxin took out a compass and fiddled with it a few times. The first one crawled in along the cave, and then Ye Shaoyang followed, and illuminated it with a three-color lotus lamp. It was a long tomb passage, neatly repaired, with There is no end in sight.

After everyone went in, everyone began to study which way to go. Miao Xin suggested to walk in the direction where the wind blows, the wind can only blow from low places to high places, and the bottom is naturally the depths of the tomb. ()
