Chapter 5 Chapter Five: General Jiuyou

I wanted to run away, but I couldn't move my legs, so I quickly took out a black donkey's hoof and threw it up hard.As I said before, in the past superstitious folklore, the black donkey's hooves hit zombies, and they can't deal with ghosts!But at this moment, I can't care less, what is in my hand is what it is! As soon as the black donkey's hoof was shot, I suddenly realized that the five-clawed golden dragon was on the top of the main hall, the orb held in the dragon's mouth was called Xuanyuan mirror, and the real dragon emperor was sitting below.Legend has it that the five-clawed golden dragon is also called Majesty, and the emperor sits below, so it is called Your Majesty. Although it is a folk legend, it is not very reliable, but veterans of clay kilns know that the golden dragon cannot move the pearl!

It is said that the Xuanyuan mirror is the gathering of dragon energy, breaking the Xuanyuan mirror is equivalent to breaking the dragon's veins.The Xuanyuan mirror is made of colored glaze, borrowing the light from the ever-burning lamp and the flashlight, it vaguely illuminates the face of the old rice dumpling, with its wide open mouth swallowing the beam of the flashlight.I looked up and felt that people were about to suck it in.At that time, I didn’t know that, according to Buddhist scriptures, there was a kind of “Mani gemstone” in ancient times, and light and electric waves were always refracted in the inner curved surface of the gemstone.There may be such a Mani gem in the Xuanyuan Mirror. When a person is under the Xuanyuan Mirror held by the five-clawed golden dragon, the brain waves will be absorbed by the Mani gem, and the senses will be rapidly weakened. They mistakenly think that the surrounding colors, lights, and smells will gradually disappear. Lie dead on the ground.At that time, I thought I had bumped into a ghost in the Xuan Palace, but I didn't care if it was Xuanyuan Mirror, so I raised my hand and threw the black donkey's hoof, and suddenly heard a "click" above my head!

Almost at the same time, the ever-burning lamp on the dragon vat, the light of the flashlight, and the painted paintings on the coffin all returned to normal.The Xuanyuan mirror held in the mouth of the five-clawed golden dragon on the top of the head split from it, and the black mercury in it fell into the coffin.Mercury is often found in ancient tombs, both for anti-corrosion and for anti-theft. Once the artifacts are stained with mercury, black spots and gray spots will appear.There will be no mercury spots on things coming from the road.Things with mercury spots, no need to ask, two or three out of ten are taken out of earthen kilns.How do you say two or three out of ten?The other seven or eight are intentionally made by counterfeiters, and they are called "mercury ancients", which is different from "handed down ancients".

The golden dragon holding the pearl on the top of the coffin chamber cracked, dust and broken stones fell down.Da Jinya was frightened and fell down from the precious platform. He got up and wanted to run, but he bumped his head against the pillar of the temple, broke his forehead, and passed out immediately.Fatty and I haven't figured out what happened before, black water gushed out from under the gate of the White Marble Hall, covering our calves in an instant.Seeing that the momentum was wrong, I shook the big gold tooth vigorously.But he didn't move, his face was covered in blood.The fat man said: "The water rises too fast, hurry up!"

Everyone in the world says that Guanzhong has deep water and soil, but it is not that there are no dark springs, but the spring water is extremely deep.In ancient times, one spring was described as thirty feet deep, and the Xuan Palace was nine layers deep, at least below the three springs.Perhaps there is a water hall in the mysterious palace, and the golden dragon holding the pearl on the top of the hall is cracked, which will cause accumulated water to flood the coffin chamber.That is the stagnant water in the tomb of Xuangong, once it reaches the top of your head, no matter how good your water skills are, you will not escape your life in the end.The two of us pulled on the big gold teeth and dragged them to the treasure platform like a dead dog.In just such a short while, the stagnant water in the coffin chamber was waist deep.The treasure platform on which the coffin was placed was only three feet high, and it was already submerged before reaching it.I remembered that in the back room there was a bully, carrying a stele without inscriptions on it, which was much higher than the treasure platform in the coffin chamber, and there was a secret passage carved by the mausoleum on it.I hurriedly carried the big gold tooth on my shoulders with the fat man, and waded into the back room.

I used my hands and feet to hold the Wang Ba Tuo stele, and pulled the big gold tooth up with a rope.In a blink of an eye, the stagnant water had already covered the door opening in the back room.The fat man was submerged in the water, and wanted to go to the coffin room to take out some more artifacts, but the water rose too fast, and he had no choice but to go up to the stone tablet.The two of them got into the kiln mouth on the top of the coupon one after the other, and dragged their big gold teeth to climb forward.As the saying goes, "There are times when people go against the sky, and there is no way out of the sky." Although the secret passage is narrow and cramped, it is just enough to accommodate people. After passing through three layers of rocks, it is another earth cave. The soil suddenly collapsed.The mouth of the kiln carved by the mausoleum was not stable, and the bottom was connected to the cave. When it collapsed, all three of them fell into the dark water.As soon as I fell into the water, the cold spring was freezing, so I hurriedly held my breath. With the mouse-skin jacket that can avoid water and fire, I could still withstand the cold spring, but with a backpack and a diamond umbrella on my body, I continued to sink.

The cold spring was bottomless, and I didn't see where the fat man and the big gold tooth were. I didn't know where the flashlight fell, and the surroundings were pitch black.I thought to myself: "If I keep sinking, I'm afraid I will enter the Dragon Palace to feed the bastard!" I was about to break free from the backpack and float to the surface, but I was caught by the current, and I couldn't use my hands, so I was still sinking in the water.As I was about to try to get out, I suddenly felt a tightness on my back, as if someone grabbed my backpack and quickly dragged me up.I was taken aback: "Who has such a big water?"

At that time, I was startled and choked a few sips of water. People are between life and death, and their consciousness is chaotic. Everything seems to exist and not, and it seems to be bright and dark. I forget my own existence and where I am. There is no up or down. When I was in a trance, I was brought out of the water by a huge force. I felt that there was a rock under my body, which was cold and hard. I saw a turtle-shaped thing with a mouth like a hook and a carapace like a sword and halberd, not much smaller than the table of the Eight Immortals, biting my backpack and trying to tear it apart.I rolled, tore off the backpack and the vajra umbrella, leaned against the wall, put my feet on the turtle's carapace, and kicked it into the water.

The turtle is extremely powerful in the water, but it moves slowly when out of the water. It bit its backpack and just sank when it suddenly heard a sound of water. When the light beam shot over, it turned out to be the fat man and the big gold tooth.Before falling into the sinkhole, Big Gold Tooth was soaked in cold water and regained consciousness. He and the fat man hugged a piece of rotten wood and floated on the water surface. Seeing the light of a flashlight here, they immediately came to join.Although the cave was deep, it was not difficult to find a way out due to the collapse of the mountains and the impact of mountain torrents.The fat man and I dragged the big gold tooth, returned to the collapsed tunnel, endured the choking dust and couldn't stop crawling forward, the skin on our elbows fell off, and we came out to a dirt ditch at the foot of the mountain.I lay on the ground, panting heavily with my mouth open.In the middle of the night, Ma Laowazi buried us in Qin Wangxuan Palace, and then came out of a hole in the earth. It was just dawn outside, and in just a few hours, we went back and forth from birth to death, and from death to birth.The three of them moved out of the ditch step by step, it was already bright, blood and mud covered their bodies, their clothes were rotten, and they were all in a mess.There are several families on the top of the ditch. I asked a sheep herder. This place is called Badaoliang, and there are more than 30 miles of mountain roads from the gate of the hall.

The three brothers together, it is not a gentleman not to take revenge if you have a grudge, and you can't let him go, Ma Laowa! The fat man said, "Catch this old donkey and put him in the coffin without a second thought!" Da Jinya said: "Ma Laowazi regards the artifact more than his life. If you take away his artifact, it is tantamount to taking his life." I nodded in agreement: "Beat Ma Laowazi hard, and then take away his weapon. You can vent your anger. There is no need to kill him. We are not knife bandits, and our heads are not leeks. If you cut them off, they will not grow." Come out, you can’t really kill him.”

He said he was going to pick out the horse at the gate of the temple, but the toad jumped three times and had to rest, let alone a human?The three of us were tired and hungry, and we couldn't walk the mountain road unless our stomachs were full. However, Big Gold Tooth's backpack was lost, and Fatty and I had no money.We were so greedy to see chickens in my hometown, there were not many chickens in the ravine. The roosters crowed and the hens laid eggs. The fat man said to me: "You and I can talk about it. You don't care if you are hungry or full. Big Gold Tooth has been tossed so hard that he lost half his life. Look at his face. He is half dead, not as good as him." Eggplant that has just been hit by hail, if you don’t give him something to eat, he will return to his place!” I said: "Da Jinya's situation, if you don't drink chicken soup, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it. When the Eighth Route Army beat devils, no matter how badly injured you were, you carried them to a fellow villager's house, put a bowl of chicken soup on them, and all injuries healed. front." The fat man said: "That's not the case. It's really chicken soup. The fat chicken in the country grows on live food. It can be stewed with a layer of oil. It's delicious!" Da Jinya wiped his saliva and said, "Who doesn't know that the chicken soup is delicious? Isn't the problem a lack of money? When you enter the village, you will be robbed and won. Are you afraid that the villagers will come out and fight for their lives?" The fat man said: "Snatch the common people's chickens? Thanks to you, you can figure out that the villagers in their place stare at the chickens more closely than their lives. The ancestral graves are easy to dig, and the chicken coops are hard to pick up. In order to give you a bowl of chicken soup, I have to play my life? Or else Then, I pretended to be a cadre going to the countryside, saying that the car fell into a ditch?" I said, "If you don't piss and take a picture, you two, a pig-headed team leader and a puppet military translator, will have to be typed out by the villagers before they enter the village." The fat man said, "I still have a clever trick. I broke off his big gold teeth and exchanged some chickens with fellow villagers." Da Jinya hurriedly waved his hands and said, "No, no, this Jinya is my life! My Dajinya is gone, can I still be called Dajinya?" The fat man said: "If you can't eat chicken, you can't live. Are you willing to die in this poor mountain valley where birds don't shit?" I said: "We don't choose a place when we do this business. We die on the road, we die on the road, we die on the mountain to feed the wolves, and we die on the mountain to feed the dogs!" Da Jinya responded: "As the saying goes - loyal bones are buried everywhere in the green hills, and death still turns into waves!" The fat man said: "Beating! I can tell you in advance that I am too hungry to dig a hole to bury you!" Da Jinya said: "Master Hu, I really can't do without chicken soup. The three of us have never experienced any natural disasters and man-made disasters. We have seen many storms and waves, and we have survived all kinds of hardships. Isn't it the threshold?" I said: "The poor mountain valley is no better than other places. I can't find anything to eat. The few sheep on the hillside are also watched by sheep herders. It is impossible to go into the village to grab chickens, but I still have the two things of stealing chickens and dogs. If you want me Said, enter the village quietly, don't shoot guns. It's not that I, Hu, want to steal chickens and dogs, but I'm here for my big gold teeth, I'm sorry folks!" When I went to the mountains and went to the countryside to join the queue, I practiced a unique skill. Others can fish, but I can fish for chickens. In fact, this is no different from fishing.It is easy to say, but it should not be underestimated. Stealing chickens and dogs, there are ways to steal chickens and dogs. Country chickens are not easy to steal. First, country chickens are strong and can even fly over walls. It is not an exaggeration to say that some people have no strength to restrain a chicken. To catch a chicken requires not only strength, but also agile hands and feet.In the past, when we couldn’t eat or drink, the fat man and I used a string, tied a small wooden stick to the front, and put a worm on it. When the chicken saw the worm, it would definitely peck it off and eat it, and swallow it hard with the stick. When you lift the rope up, the wooden stick gets stuck in the neck of the rooster. No matter how powerful the rooster is, it can't struggle, and it doesn't make a sound. When people are hungry, there is nothing they can't do.The three sneaked into the village according to this method, caught a few chickens while the villagers were not paying attention, and hurriedly found a place where no one was there.I thought to myself: "Badaoliang is a poor place, what's the point if we steal the chickens from the villagers?" Halfway through the walk, I turned back, took off my watch, and placed it in front of the chicken coop.That watch was given to me by Sydney Yang, and it is the only valuable thing on me. Although I don’t know how much it is worth, it is definitely worth more than all the chickens in the village.I didn't think about how to explain to Sydney Yang after I went back. When she asked, I couldn't say that I was so hungry that there were gold stars in front of my eyes when I came out of the earthen kiln. The consequences are unimaginable, and it is really hard to say.Fortunately, I am a big-hearted person, and I am used to living with bombs all day long. If someone else is going to hang himself, I don't care at all, and just sleep and throw the back of my head.At that moment, he caught up with Fatty and Big Gold Tooth, and went straight to the gate of the hall.Go to the place and look up, the stars are shifting, and it is the third watch time, just close the door to beat the dog, block the cage to catch the chicken! We tried our best to dig out Ma Laowazi, but in the end, there was no one in the dilapidated house, and most of them fled with a sack of open weapons. It's not surprising that my son hasn't come back. If it was me, I would also run away. If I don't run away, what are you waiting for? Although monks can run away but not temples, they still have to visit some temples. Ma Laowazi's poor house is full of donkey head New Year paintings that no one wants, and it would be too troublesome to set it on fire.The fat man couldn't swallow the bad breath, so he went into the house and searched. There were plenty of lice and fleas, but nothing of value.There are thousands of ravines and ravines on the mountain, and there is no way to chase him. The ghost knows where he hid.The three of us rushed to nothing, although we were not reconciled, but there was nothing we could do.When I saw the black donkey New Year pictures in that room, I suddenly had an idea: Faqiu, touching gold, moving mountains, and unloading mountains originated from the Han Dynasty. There is also a way"!Since the Ming Dynasty, four clans have emerged, all of whom are good at robbing tombs. They are "Yinyang Duangong, Guanshan Taibao, Jiuyou General, and Jushi Fawang".Yinyang Duangong ruled the Kuzi army, Guanshan Taibao supervised the construction of the imperial tomb, and General Jiuyou guarded the dragon veins. After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, they all engaged in tomb robbery.The King of Jushi was born in the last years of the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the drought continued, and countless hungry people became vagrants. The imperial court invited an immortal teacher from Longhu Mountain, and named him "King of Jushi" to relieve the drought.At that time, the main purpose of eliminating the drought was to take out the mummified corpses in the ancient tombs and burn them. The King of Jushi used this as a cover to steal and dig many ancient tombs.And General Jiuyou, one of the four clans, worships the black donkey as his ancestor and haunts the land of Qin and Jin. .I've never seen the custom of black donkeys blocking the door. Ma Laowazi hangs a room full of black donkey New Year pictures, and he's a digger. Is he a descendant of General Jiuyou? I turned this idea around in my mind, and seeing that I couldn't find any trace of Ma Laowazi, I had no choice but to leave the gate of the hall and go out.The fat man was still brooding: "If Ma Laowazi hadn't been tricked, how could he have come to this point where the dog took away all the fat he ate! In the past, we took advantage of others, but we have never eaten so much. Big loss!" Da Jinya thought that the loss was not small, but he didn't return empty-handed. The palace maid who died in Xuan Palace of the Qin Dynasty had a yellow silk package tied to her body. Inside was a gold-plated iron box with many gods and monsters. Any rust, the fat man stuffed it into the backpack, and he didn't remember it until now.But among so many buried treasures, the gold-plated iron box is not eye-catching, and there is nothing inside, even with Da Jinya's eyesight and insight, he can't recognize the origin of the gold-plated iron box.He said: "I came to Guanzhong to find one or two things that can be held on the table. I didn't expect to get such a gold-plated iron box. The Ming artifact from my big gold tooth is better than that on the mountain. There are more messes, you asked me to say what the gold-plated iron box is for, I really can't tell, there is a rule in our business, things that no one recognizes are worthless!" When the fat man heard his words, his heart became half cold, and he raised his hand to throw the gold-plated iron box down the ravine. Da Jinya said: "Don't throw it, don't throw it! Listen to me, I haven't finished my sentence. With my eyesight, I really can't see what happened, but my big Jinya's nose is not for decoration. I took it When the nose smells like this, hey! Guess what? This stuff has been around for thousands of years, so it might be worth a lot of money!" I said: "I think so too, there must be mysteries in the gold-plated iron box!" The fat man said, "Old Hu, you are oversensitive." I said: "Our previous failures were all due to underestimating the enemy!" The fat man said: "Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs. Isn't that what you often encourage us?" I said: "That's all nonsense. I'm just finding a way for myself. Do you take it seriously? In short, the origin of this thing is unknown, and it is completely different from the funeral objects in King Qin's Xuan Palace. I don't know if it will be a blessing or a curse if it is brought to the world." !" Back in Beijing, I told Fatty and Big Gold Tooth to keep quiet until I find someone who understands and asks.Sydney Yang was busy with some things and didn't know that I was going to Guanzhong in the past few days.I thought that I would make up an excuse, saying that I hadn't been out a few days ago, and based on her trust in me, she shouldn't ask more questions.But if you want people not to know, unless you do nothing about it, those two treasures, Big Gold Tooth and Fatty, are more than successful than they are. They usually talk a lot, and if they talk too much, they will fail. Sooner or later, they will be exposed to me. Look at me?I might as well say it in advance, it seems that I am aboveboard, but I haven't found a chance to speak up. Three days later, we will leave for the United States, and I still have some broken things in my hand, which I want to sell at Panjiayuan'er.In the past, this place was called Panjiayao, and it was all made of fired bricks. Later, the kiln was said to be ugly, so it was called Panjiayuan'er.At that time, there were many street stalls, and many people came to shop.Buyers and sellers, turn over the rags one by one to confirm, tell the truth and tell the truth, and judge the two.From the emperor's jade pendant to the beggar's dog-beating stick, there are people selling and buying everything.Whether it's real or not is another matter.Some things come from wrong sources, such as funerary objects taken out of the tomb, or stolen goods stolen by thieves.If you have good eyesight, you can even buy a blue and white porcelain vase for the price of a vinegar bottle, and a Western Zhou bronze ware for the price of broken copper and iron.Although there are rare treasures, they are not easy to come across. In this business, there are too many fake ones for real ones, and inferior ones for good ones. If you are greedy for cheap, you deserve it. After noon, the number of people wandering around gradually decreased. The fat man went to buy marinade for cooking, and I stayed and looked at things.It happened that Xueli Yang came to see me. I took this opportunity to tell her the story, and said: "In a few days, I will go far away with you, and I will never come back again. I assure you, this is absolutely true. the last time!" Sydney Yang said: "Regardless of whether your guarantee is valid or not, and you didn't hide it from me, it means a lot to me." I said: "If I have no meaning to you, I also have to be lost, feeling infinitely empty..." At this moment, the fat man came over and said: "Emptiness is enough, if you create infinity, can you still live?" I said, "Your mouth is itchy and you feel uncomfortable, hurry up and eat your stewed food." The fat man said: "Eat stewed food all day long, won't you get tired of eating? The American advisory group is here, why don't you give me a good meal?" While speaking, Da Jinya also came.He secretly told me that he took photos of the artifacts we brought out from the Xuan Palace of King Qin, and asked people everywhere to find out what dynasty it was. After asking around, no one recognized it, but the news spread Yes, after a few days, there really was a big buyer who knows the goods, and asked me to bring my things to meet. In front of Xue Liyang, I have to say that we are not trying to resell the artifact, and I will not sell it no matter how much others give, but since the other party is willing to pay a high price, he must know the origin of this artifact. Out of curiosity, I decided to meet On the other side, he listened to what the other party had to say, so he asked where to meet Da Jinya? Da Jinya said: "The car came to pick me up. It's not in time for dinner. I reckon it must be in some big hotel." Xue Liyang didn't want to see those second-hand traffickers, so I asked her to go back first.Fatty and I packed our things, and we left Panjiayuan with Da Jinya, and a car took us to the southwest entrance of Chongwenmen Road. In 1983, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China and France took the lead to open a French restaurant here. The front is open to the outside world, but it is not affordable for ordinary people, and you must have connections to enter the back.At that time, this place was great, the facade was small, hidden and dignified, once inside, it was resplendent and resplendent, as if you were in a French court in the 19th century. The chandeliers and wall lamps in the shape of maple chestnut leaves, as well as the endless crystal glass walls, have a strong exotic style, as luxurious as you want.We are the masters who eat boiled mutton shirtless. We don't know what we eat here, and we can't imagine it. For me, these are completely two worlds. The big gold tooth has a kidney deficiency, so he went to the toilet first when he entered the door, and came out to brag to me and the fat man: "I have eaten the big gold tooth before, but I have never entered such a high-end place, it is like a toilet world. The Louvre!" I said in my heart, "It's not a business to catch up, and the horoscope has not been written yet. As for such hospitality? Could it be that Hatoyama hosted a banquet and made friends with me?" The three brothers walked in, and there was already a young woman in her twenties sitting inside. The woman stood up to greet her: "Don't dare to ask your honor and name?" I said, "I don't dare to be respectful if I have no virtue. My surname is Hu, and I live in Panjiayuan." The woman said: "Lieutenant Touching Gold, it's better to meet you than to be famous, and it's better to meet you than to be famous!" Da Jinya hurriedly came over to introduce her. She said that this woman was called "Jade Faced Fox" and specialized in antique business. When I heard this, I was immediately shocked. Those who eat our bowl of rice never mention their names outside, and are used to addressing each other by nicknames.I have heard of the "Jade Faced Fox" before. It is said that after the royal family, not only the family background is prominent, but also a middleman in the cross-border antique trade. It is not a small name in Taoism. It is not a national treasure, so it cannot enter her. Dharma eye.First of all, I didn't expect her to be so young, and second, she is not someone who goes to Panjiayuan to shop at street stalls. How did Big Gold Teeth recruit her?In terms of beauty, the jade-faced fox can also be called a national beauty, but it makes people think that she is a vixen, so I have to be wary of her.I said to her: "My name is covered up. I am afraid that others will know, or you will hear about it? But hearing is believing, seeing is believing. I have to tell you when I meet today. It's not from drilling earth kilns!" The fat man said: "Old Hu, don't be so inferior, okay? You're an upside-down, that's not shameful. Those old rice dumplings wrapped in silk enjoyed all the glory and wealth during their lifetime, and they hid in ancient tombs for thousands of years after death." In 2000, they are at ease, but there are still so many suffering people in this world, if you take out a few of them, isn’t that doing justice for the heavens?” I said to the fat man: "Don't talk about doing justice for the sky, the years are different, and in this day and age, it's not easy to dig graves. It's hard work, risky, costly, and skillful. Success has always been less and more failures." Don't worry about it, don't worry about it, you may not make a lot of money, it's better to do anything than to do this, there are so many easy-to-earn business and give up, why do you have to compete with the dead?" Da Jinya was afraid of ruining the deal, so he kept apologizing to the jade-faced fox and advised her not to be as knowledgeable as the two of us.The jade-faced fox remained calm and asked Da Jinya: "Did the three take out a Ming artifact?" Da Jinya said: "No, we picked it up. We picked up a Ming artifact!" Yumian The fox didn't care whether the artifact was picked up or picked up, he just wanted to buy it, and he was determined to get it, so he let Jinya set a price at will.According to the rules, the buyer has to pay a part of the deposit before the eye contact, even if the transaction fails, the money does not have to be refunded.I fabricated something, trying to find out what the other party said.The jade-faced fox said: "There are no rules, and there is no such thing as a circle. I can explain to you only after you give me the things." I said, "Then don't look at the things anymore. You can say a price first, let us brother Go back and discuss it." The jade-faced fox said: "You take the deposit, at least let me see the things first." I said: "I'm sorry, I came out in a hurry, and I forgot to bring things." Said the jade-faced fox : "You might as well take me to have a look." I said: "The thing is in my hand, and it can't fly. Why rush for a while, it won't be too late in a few years." The jade-faced fox was a little surprised: "You and I Can’t you make a joke?” I said, “I didn’t mean that, the seventh of the three major disciplines and eight items of discipline—no molesting women!” The two sides didn't reach an agreement, and there was nothing good to say any further, so I cupped my hands and said "Farewell". I took my unknown fat man and big gold tooth with me, and went all the way back to Panjiayuan.It was only two o'clock in the afternoon, and the three of them hadn't eaten yet. They came to a roadside stall selling stewed fire. Each of them had a big bowl of stewed fire, and squatted on the side of the road to eat it all. Da Jinya asked the fat man while breaking the fire, "Fatty, can you still eat?" The fat man said: "I really can't eat anymore today, at most five more bowls." Da Jinya sighed again and again: "I can't eat any more, Master Hu, what do you mean? You are the one who is confused, and you are the one who understands? But there is no business like this. Let her look at the things anyway. Didn't she get the deposit? It should be known that sitting on the mountain and eating the sky, eating immediately and the ground sinking, the throat is as deep as the sea, the sun and the moon are as fast as the shuttle, talking in plain language, the eyes are full and the stomach is hungry, the most urgent thing is, don’t we make more money?” I said, "Didn't you see that a piece of human skin can't cover her grimace!" The fat man said: "Then you have to eat before leaving, but luckily, you slipped away before eating, and finally went in. I don't even know what's there to eat!" I said: "I need to know in advance that it is a jade-faced fox. I will never come. She is a middleman in the antique trade. That's true, but who are they on both sides? One is an overseas tomb robbery gang, and the other is buying and selling national treasures." She is a chaebol who takes advantage of the middle. She recognizes the money but does not recognize the master of the ancestors. Listen to her bandit name-Jade Face Fox, can she be a good person? No matter how much she pays, this business cannot be done. 1. Secondly, she really thinks I'm an idiot, no matter who I am, if she wants to deal with me, she has to go back to her mother's womb and practice for another two hundred years. I'm not as good as Da Jinya in business, but I suffer There are more guns than rice grains you have ever eaten, and I have more experience than you in dealing with monsters like her." The fat man said, "Just brag about you, you have been shot so many times, have you been beaten into a sieve?" Da Jinya said: "Compared to you, my Da Jinya is still tender, but Mr. Hu, isn't it all the experience of being beaten?" I said, "I've been beaten a lot, don't I need to be careful? Think about it carefully, has there ever been a pie in the sky? The value of the gold-plated iron box must be much more than the money she gave, or even more." Hundreds of times and thousands of times! In the next step, we must be careful of the other party's open robbery and investigate the truth of the gold-plated iron box as soon as possible!" I took the opportunity of eating stewed food, thought about it carefully, and decided to go back and bury the things first, but before I entered the house, Xue Liyang had already arrived.She asked me anxiously: "Who did you go to meet?" I briefly described the situation when I saw the jade-faced fox.Xue Liyang said that Da Jinya had caused a lot of trouble by spreading the photo to the outside world. I don’t know how many tomb robbers are eyeing this artifact!She just got the news and hurried back. Fortunately, the things were not sold. Da Jinya said: "Miss Yang recognizes it? We wanted to break our heads, but we couldn't figure out what it was?" I asked the fat man to close the door, took out the gilt iron box, and handed it to Xueli Yang for identification. Xue Liyang said: "I just got the news that the Ming vessel in your hand is not a box for putting things, but a golden book, which is the treasure of the Xixia Township. Four patterns have been cast from the inside to the outside. To replace the inscriptions and murals, it will not be damaged in the past thousands of years. When the Xixia Dynasty was the strongest, the land was as far as the Yellow River in the east and Yumen in the west, and almost controlled the entire Hexi Corridor until the rise of Mobei Mongolia. Mie Wuyi, I didn’t expect this Xixia Golden Book to be buried in King Qin’s tomb after a change of dynasty, and you brought it out again so that it can be seen again.” As the saying goes, "If you have a question, you stretch out your hand; if you can, you open your mouth." We can also hear that, and Xue Liyang's words are well-founded, and we were dumbfounded when he said it. Da Jinya said: "Miss Yang, you have really learned a lot for us! The treasure of Xixia town... how much is it worth?" Xue Liyang said: "The value of the Xixia Golden Book mainly lies in the content of the records. According to ancient historical documents, there is a magic mountain in the Great Xia, and there is a mandala in the mountain, also known as the Temple of Secret Curse to Fumo. There is a bright moon bead, two feet in diameter, and a thousand miles of light, and the Xixia Golden Book is the map of this mysterious treasure!" The Xixia Golden Book is just a map of the treasures of the town, and the real treasure is in the Secret Mantra Temple.The aristocrats of the Western Xia Dynasty believed in Buddhism. What is enshrined in the mountainside palace is not a statue, but a huge mural. In the mural, Fu Mo Tianzun holds a nine-strand vajra in one hand and a spit treasure beast in the other.Xixia nobles believe that the more exquisite the religious murals are, the greater the merit of the person who worships them.In order to build the Fumo Secret Mantra Hall, Xixia recruited thousands of painters, peasant husbands, and slaves. It took more than a hundred years to build it, using a lot of treasures. According to legend, under the murals is an ancient tomb where a demon girl is buried.The Xixia murals have a wide range of content and rich themes, such as harvesting, banquets, animal husbandry, chess games, singing and dancing, killing, and slaves.Xixia believes in Buddhism, and there are many fictional "Lingshan Paradise" in the murals, as well as unique themes of Xixia such as "Pure Land Bian, Pharmacist Bian, Hell Bian, Nirvana Bian, Esoteric Mandala Bian, Infinite Life Sutra Bian", interspersed with "mandala, Birds and beasts, dragons and phoenixes, King Kong, Hercules, and Bodhisattvas" are the decorations, and the painting style is bright and solemn.Xixia Buddhist murals are especially good at using Bian. The so-called "Bian" is also called "Jingbian" or "Bianxiang". Intuitively feel the Buddhist teachings in the scriptures.In the Buddhist caves and tombs unearthed everywhere, the Xixia painters used their infinite imagination, from the mundane to the sacred, forming a Buddhist world.Xue Liyang has an album in his hand, which is a Dunhuang mural that has been lost overseas. There are nine poems in all, with fierce appearance, surrounded by feathered men, with swords drawn and crossbows drawn, imposing, almost breaking out of the wall.The murals are clearly defined and orderly, setting off a weird and mysterious religious atmosphere.The murals in the Xixia Secret Mantra Hall should have similar themes.It is said that the Secret Mantra Temple of Fumo is close to the Mongolian desert and is located at the place where the southwest edge of the Mu Us Desert connects with the mountains. The mountains in that area are continuous, with high peaks and steep cliffs, and there are cliffs and faults everywhere. It is impossible to pass from other directions. Since ancient times, it has been covered by grasslands. The shepherds on it are called the Magic Mountain, and the exact location has been lost for a long time.In those days, Mu Us had not suffered from quicksand, and there were many oases and castles.Later, the Mongolian army conquered Xixia six times, and the legendary Golden Tower Pearl, together with the glorious Xixia Dynasty, was swallowed by the wind and sand without leaving any traces in the world.The Xixia Golden Book records the location of the Secret Mantra Temple of Fumo, but it is difficult to find this place.Due to the drying up of water veins and rapid desertification, after the Xixia Kingdom was destroyed, quicksand became a disaster.Since the Ming Dynasty, all those who have garrisoned troops on the Great Wall along the wind and sand belt have to scrape the sand year after year. If the quicksand is not removed, the sand will be buried under the city wall, which shows how serious the quicksand is. Da Jinya spread the photos of the Xixia Golden Book, which attracted the attention of overseas tomb robbers. This trick was too big.Sydney Yang decided to find this huge treasure before the overseas tomb robbers attacked. The time was very tight, and the longer the delay, the worse the situation would be. I turned my head to look at Fatty and Big Gold Tooth, they were silent, waiting for me to make a decision.As soon as I heard Xue Liyang say that, I knew I couldn't leave again.Xue Liyang is not a person who knows difficulties and avoids dangers. I fully understand why she went to the Xixia ancient tomb. As for the reason, I have no time to tell the fat man and the big gold tooth.But Xue Liyang decided to go to the ancient tombs of Xixia, of course I have to go, and it is impossible for the fat man not to go.The three of them tacitly agreed, and there was nothing to say.So Fatty and I stayed to make preparations, and Sydney Yang went to make an itinerary, and made an appointment to leave early tomorrow morning, and discuss specific plans on the way.In the evening, Fatty, Big Gold Tooth and I had bulging stomachs, so we went out to find a shabu-shabu restaurant, ordered a pot, sat down and changed cups, and puffed. Da Jinya asked me: "Master Hu, are you really going to find the ancient tomb of Xixia?" I said, "It wasn't you who posted the photos. Why did you get into so much trouble? Now it's impossible to think about it. Fortunately, the photos were not taken completely, and the initiative is still in our hands. This is also a blessing among misfortunes." Big Gold Tooth said: "That's my Big Gold Tooth, isn't that helpful? I'll punish myself with three cups..." He did it three times in a row, wiped his mouth, and asked the fat man again: "Go to Fatty not going?" The fat man said, "I won't go? If I don't go, he won't even be able to find Bei!" Da Jinya said: "I also want to understand that poor bachelors are all raised by young mothers, and they can't afford to eat if they don't work hard! If you want to make a fortune, you have to play with your life!" 我说：“怎么个意思，你也想跟去？你在潘家园儿混了那么多年，好歹趁些个家底儿，你又有家有口，什么时候变成穷光棍了？不要乱往自己脑袋上扣帽子，扣帽子也得先量量尺寸是不是？” 大金牙说：“胡爷这是你不明白了，我那点儿钱够干什么的，西北风都快喝不上了！”他嘬了嘬牙花子，又往下说：“去关中掏明器，有我一份，我大金牙捅了娄子，不能让你们替我顶这个雷，你们去找西夏古墓，我可不能不去！” 我说：“你趁早别打这个主意，这不比出去收东西，可以预见的危险和困难，已经多得数不过来了，稍有闪失，性命不保！你有多大能耐，我是再清楚不过，不是我不让你去，我不能眼睁睁看你往火坑里跳。一个窝里生的鸟儿，也难在一条道上飞，你还是留下吃口安稳饭吧。” 大金牙又干了三个，喝得脸红脖子粗，他说：“胡爷你可忒小瞧我了，患难之处才见交情，到了这个时候我能往后缩吗？命没了怕什么，命才值多少钱？我大金牙这一肚子下水，本来就是捂臭了端不上饭桌的玩意儿，为了你扔了也值了！” 我见大金牙死活非要去，拦也拦不住，他无非是怕捞不到好处，可能也觉得我和胖子够仗义，一旦遇上危险，念在以往的交情上，至少不会扔下他。我心想：“好良言难劝该死的鬼，话说到这个份上，那还有什么可说的？”只好对他说：“金爷，当初不是我和胖子在潘家园儿遇上你，我们哥儿俩还真未必吃得上这碗饭，咱们之间无分彼此，有什么话都可以直接说，不必拐弯抹角，你可以去，但是有几句话我得给你说在前头！首先，盯上这个宝藏的盗墓贼不少，万一撞上，只怕不好对付。其次，进入西夏魔山，必须穿过蒙古大漠，那一带很少有固定的沙丘，地图完全用不上。最可怕的是没有水，你别看地图上有些星罗棋布的湖泊，那可全是咸水，喝了没有不死的。退一万步说，即使找到地宫，你敢进去？你想过没有，埋葬妖女的古墓为什么叫密咒伏魔殿？我是想不出来，说句实话，此行凶险不言而喻，成功的机会十分渺茫！” 虽然我不放心大金牙，但是该说的话我都对他说了，命是他自己的，愿意扔在哪儿，还不是他自己做主？ 三个人说起明天即将出发，寻找大漠尽头的西夏古墓，远走高飞的计划只好先放下了。可是说句不该说的，我们平时无风还想生出三尺浪来，正闲得发慌，难得有这个机会，人都显得格外精神。月光凄冷如刀，哥儿仨坐在小饭馆中，你一言我一语，各抒心怀，又提到西夏密咒殿供奉的巨幅壁画。大金牙问我雪梨杨为何想都不想就决定前往？我看看大金牙，又看看胖子，略一沉吟，低声告诉他们俩：“西夏魔山中的明月珠，乃是搬山道人祖先世代供奉的圣物！”
