Chapter 136 Chapter Thirteen: Descendants of Maoshan

I thought, I couldn't figure it out after thinking about it in the room, and my stomach was already croaking, so I hid my things and went out.I originally thought of going downstairs directly after leaving the door, but I thought it would be better to call someone, after all, this old castle seems to be not simple, and it would be easier to take care of one more person.For the other three people, I just want to ask Lao Ba or Xu Feng to go with them. Blue eyes always give me a bad feeling, and they yell when the lights go out. Calling such a timid person will always be a burden.But having said that, I used to be as timid as him, but I still feel that my previous timidity is different from his. The blue-eyed ones seem to be timid with a guilty conscience.However, the honest old scar and blue eyes were together, so I had no choice but to call Xu Feng, he is a policeman after all, and he can deal with things if something happens.As I was walking past Blue Eyes' room, I heard them talking, and out of curiosity I put my ear to the door. "Are you sure it's him?" Old Scar asked hesitantly.

"Absolutely. Although the appearance has changed so much and I haven't seen him for decades, the feeling is unmistakable!" Blue Eye insisted. "I think it's better to forget it. I'm really tired after going back to Medog all these years." Old Scar said helplessly. "Hmph, forget it, how could it be so easy! Why should we let him take all the things we worked hard to get!" Blue Eyes said bitterly, and his voice became high-pitched. "It's been so many years, can those things still be used? I don't want to use them anymore." Lao Ba spoke weakly, as if he had accepted his fate and didn't want to struggle anymore.I also had this feeling deep in my heart, so I felt sore when I heard what Lao Ba said.

"Don't be so pessimistic, okay? Our decades of hard work will be in vain. It's all because of him. Don't you want to get everything back, or take revenge!?" Blue Eyes instigated. "I don't want to." Lao Ba replied very simply. "Do you want to fight with me again? Last time on the road, didn't you think it was not enough? It seems that you are determined to beat me so hard. However, if this is not the case, we will not I would never have found this place if I met this group of people, so I really want to thank them." "What do you think! After all, they saved us, so don't play with their crooked ideas. If they hadn't met us in a car , We are already wounded all over our bodies by killing each other. How could we get out of Medog." Lao Ba said excitedly. "You don't need to worry about this." Blue Eyes smiled again.

I was shocked in a cold sweat after listening to their conversation, did they? ? ? ? ? ?I didn't dare to continue eavesdropping, so I quietly retreated to my room, because I was afraid that if I was not careful, I would make some noise and let them find out, and maybe I would be silenced. I don't want to die without knowing why.After returning to the room, the feeling of hunger in my stomach has disappeared, and my heart just keeps beating drums.I dug out the old newspaper from my body, looked carefully at the robbery news on it, and had a question in my heart: Is the blue eye the robber mentioned in the newspaper?When I was in Lhasa, I took the time to buy a bottle of a very special liquid, which is specially used in museums, and I also entrusted my friends in the store to buy it.I didn't want to use this bottle of liquid when I was in Lhasa, but after I found an old newspaper from the train, I wanted to buy liquid for use.There is no specific name for this liquid, but it is formulated by experts in the industry. Its function is to slow down the oxidation reaction of cultural relics, so that it will not be corroded and disturbed by the outside world and maintain its original characteristics.I applied this liquid on the newspaper at that time, but this liquid also has another effect, that is, it has a strong reaction to acidic or alkaline things.When visiting museums, it is inevitable that some low-quality people will destroy cultural relics, so this liquid on the way can not only protect cultural relics, but also immediately see where the cultural relics have been destroyed.This kind of violent reaction will not damage the cultural relics, it will only appear two colors when it encounters acid and alkali substances, and it will be very bright, and those colors will disappear only after it is painted again.

The last time Blue Eye vomited on purpose in the car, I noticed that he pretended to eat, and then chewed it in his mouth for a long time, not eating at all.I didn't doubt him at first, but the things vomited out of the stomach usually contain stomach acid, so those filth should appear bright red when they touch the newspaper, but they didn't appear, only some variegated colors appeared.There were also pregnant women who visited the museum before. They accidentally vomited on the cultural relics, and a very bright red color appeared at that time, so I always remember this incident.When I was in the car, I thought about why Blue Eye pretended to vomit. I only thought it had something to do with the newspaper, but now it sounds like it might have something to do with the bank robbery news.Are these two people really the robbers who escaped back then?If this is the case, we have to be careful everywhere, who knows if they will become wild.It's just that there are still many things I don't understand about what I said to them, but since they haven't provoked us yet, I won't expose them for now, maybe it's because I understand it wrong.

I carefully hid the newspaper, looked at the sheepskin notebook again, and began to feel uneasy again, every time I had this feeling, something must happen around me.I didn't intend to call anyone when I went out this time. I just went downstairs slowly by myself, and the heavy snow outside didn't mean to stop, on the contrary, it was getting bigger and bigger.After I went downstairs, the stove in the middle was still burning, and the flames inside were jumping crazily, but the heat could not be transmitted to every place in the castle, it seemed that the flame was just an illusion.I remembered that the hunchbacked old man said that he wanted to prepare dinner with Yang Siyi, so I walked towards them.This castle is wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, and the corridor on the first floor is also "S" shaped, which is exactly the same as the one on the upper floor, but it is much longer than the one on the upper floor, so the space on the first floor is also larger.

I originally thought it would be very abrupt to walk in like this, but thinking about it, there are people living here anyway, so there shouldn't be any dangerous things happening, and the blue-eyed robber did it.The corridor is at the end of the hall, but on the wall at this end, there seems to be a very vague stone carving.Because of the age, the depiction on this wall is hard to identify, but I still went up to have a look.It doesn't matter if you look at it, but you can see a famous figure in the Central Plains Force in ancient times-Tao Hongjing! I wondered in my heart, isn’t Tao Hongjing the founder of Maoshan School of Taoism? Why does his portrait appear in this ancient castle! ?There is only one portrait of Tao Hongjing in our museum, but it is really incredible to see it here now.Tao Hongjing was a figure in the Southern Dynasties and an important figure of the Maoshan School of Taoism. Generally, those who still worship this ancestor are descendants of Maoshan, and they will worship this ancestor at home or in important places.Today, in the ancient castle in Tibet, there are such characters from the Central Plains period. Could it be that this ancient castle is still haunted?Remember, Tibetan Buddhism in Tibet was seldom influenced by the Buddhist culture of the Central Plains when Tibet first started to develop, let alone the Maoshan sect of Taoism.The hunchbacked old man is the owner of this ancient castle, but because his face is full of scars and wrinkles, and his clothes are very tattered, it is difficult to tell whether he is a Tibetan or a Han Chinese. Could it be that this hunchbacked old man is a descendant of Maoshan?But if the hunchbacked old man was a descendant of Maoshan, then this withered painting would not have been corroded like this, and no one would have paid any attention to it.At first, I thought the hunchbacked old man was from Monba, because the desk with the power of the hall and the design of the castle are the characteristics of Monba.However, why did the first ancestor of Maoshan come out again now? I really don't understand who owns this nondescript castle.

I walked carefully along the corridor and found that the butter lamps on the wall had some Maoshan school totems on them, but there were many butter lamps in the corridor, and the old man with a hunchback hadn't fully lit them, just lit one or two for us to see clearly direction.Many rooms on the first floor were also in ruins due to the cracks in the walls, so they were completely inhabitable by the heavy snow. No wonder the old man with a hunchback let us live on the second floor.I looked one by one, but I didn't find any trace of the kitchen, but I saw five coffins in a room at the "S" corner of the corridor!It is bad luck to see a coffin in a place where people live, because it is for auspiciousness, so the coffin is called "official wealth".But I still don't believe in superstition, so I went in boldly.The sheepskin notes found upstairs said that there was an ancient tomb under the castle, so there must be coffins in the tomb. Could these coffins be dug out from the ancient tomb below? I really didn’t expect that there would be five people in one ancient tomb. coffin.

I pricked up my ears to listen to the movement in the corridor, and there was no man-made noise outside except the wind, so I swallowed and walked a little closer to the coffin.These five coffins are very special, they don't look like antiques, but they are a bit fresh, not at all like the coffins we found in ancient tombs.The strangest thing is that there are many stained marks on the coffin. When I looked closely, it seemed to be blood.I counted and found that only four of the five coffins were stained with blood, and the other one was clean.I am an archaeologist, and I have seen a lot of coffins, so I pushed away the clean coffin without hesitation, but found that there was nothing inside, let alone bones.

I pushed away the other four coffins one by one, and there were bones inside.The strangest thing is that when I pushed away the last coffin, there were two skeletons inside!There are obviously five coffins here, so why are two people sharing one coffin? This is extremely rare, unless they are husband and wife?I examined the bones in this coffin carefully, but found that both were male.I have never heard of the custom of putting the bones of two men in the same coffin.
