Chapter 156 Chapter 39 Prohibition of Entry

There was indeed a sharp ancient sword lying in the black wind wooden box, but the ancient blue frost sword was actually broken into two pieces, and it was not a complete divine sword.This is a decapitating sword, how difficult it is to cut off a person's head, how can it be broken.I grabbed the Qingshuang sword in disbelief, like grabbing a piece of ice, and let go of the cold. Immediately, the beautiful imagination was shattered, and I refused to believe that it was true. Who would be so boring as to transport a broken sword.Mu Qingxiang squatted down and looked at it for a while, she was not as disappointed as I was, it seemed that the Qingshuang sword was broken, this matter is more normal than people can speak.In addition to the Qingshuang sword, there is only a piece of white silk cloth in the black wind wooden box, which is used to support the sharp sword body.I saw that the scabbard was put aside, and it may have been broken by drawing the sword and stabbing something.

I was puzzled and said, "Is this ship transporting tea or jade? Is it really just a broken Qingshuang sword?" "It's broken, it's also a famous sword." Mu Qingxiang replied in a wrong way, and didn't understand my original intention at all. I patiently said: "The sword is broken, just throw it away, or recast it. Such a huge effort to transport a sword, even Mo Xie, the general, is not treated like this. The reputation of Qingshuang Sword is not so great yet." Every time there was an argument, Mu Qingxiang would stop at the point and would not continue to argue with me.I felt bored, so I closed my mouth and looked at Qingshuangjian regretfully.No wonder there has always been only one Qingshuang sword in history. I thought the twin swords were false. Who would have thought that this sword would be broken in two in the Western Han Dynasty.What is there that is so hard, even if you keep chopping it, the Qingshuang Sword will be broken.

Mu Qingxiang felt that I was looking for trouble, she didn't even want to think about it, she just broke it, could it be that if she wanted to break her head, would the Qingshuang Sword change back to its original state by itself?I can't help but say that things are not simple, and you don't even think about it, this is a deep mountain and old forest, why transport a broken sword if there is nothing to do.Whether this is shipped out or shipped in, we don't know.If it was transported out, there might be a sword furnace at the end of the canal; if it was transported in, there might be a sword furnace at the end. They wanted to restore the Qingshuang Sword to its original appearance.

If this is the case, the question arises - why build the sword furnace in a remote place, why not choose a place that is closer.It can be seen that the end of the canal is not a sword furnace. Whether it is heaven or hell at the end, we cannot find the answer unless we go there. The vast forest before dawn is like being shrouded in the shadow of a devil, there is no sound of wind or rustling of leaves, so quiet that you can hear the heartbeat of others.Mu Qingxiang and I are not interested in the broken Qingshuang Sword. Selling this kind of thing is definitely a capital crime of beheading, so it's better to leave it where it is.If I ask the archaeological team to come in, and they ask me how I found this place, then it's hard to answer. Who would come here like a normal person?

After Mu Qingxiang and I cleaned up, we couldn't find a living person, so we prepared to leave this ancient ship.At this time, there was another bang bang sound from the ancient ship, which was still six procrastinated distress signals.Before, when we heard the cry for help, we already had a sense of fear in our hearts.When the tea ape died, the snow pheasant ran away, the cabin was emptied, and now it was clear, who would be calling for help.The light beam of the flashlight sweeps back and forth in the cabin. The space here is semi-closed, and there is a sense of oppression at night.Although the cabin was tidied up, the ancient ship felt more and more leaky the more I looked at it, and I even remembered that the ship shook again, as if it was still floating in the water.

I whispered to Mu Qingxiang who was beside me: "Did you hear that sound? There is it again!" Mu Qingxiang nodded to show that she heard it. Obviously she was also puzzled and thought that the matter had come to an end, but she didn't expect to get to the core of the incident at all.I was afraid that the tea apes were not completely dead, so I went to look at their bodies again, and they were indeed dead.Although I don't believe in ghosts and gods, I have seen a lot of strange things over the years, and science can't explain them clearly. Maybe this time I really saw a ghost.Mu Qingxiang itself is a mystery, but she doesn't believe in ghosts, she would rather believe that there are other things hiding on the ancient ship.

The sound continued. We stood in the cabin and could feel the vibration of the sound, as if it was transmitted into the air.I was listening carefully, and trying to find out the source of the sound, Li Xiaobei was about to yell, almost scared to death.We hadn't reported safety for more than ten minutes, and Li Xiaobei shouted that if he didn't show up, he would charge into the battle.I let out a long sigh, glanced at Mu Qingxiang, went out and shook the flashlight. After reporting the letter, I went back to the cabin and discussed: "Why don't we just leave it alone, now that no one is here, how can we save people? If it's a ghost calling for help, there's nothing we can do, don't you think?"

Mu Qingxiang refused to give in, and said calmly: "You go back first, I'll stay and take a look." I said anxiously: "This is not acceptable. If you leave a woman here, if there is danger, then you will die." Mu Qingxiang looked at me strangely and said, "Don't the outside world advocate equality between men and women? Why do you always look down on them?" I'm at a loss for words, this bitch doesn't understand, I was concerned about her just now, why did I get involved in the topic of discrimination against women.Fortunately, the beating sound continued, so I turned around to look for it, maybe there was something I missed.As soon as I turned around, I remembered that this ancient ship has two layers of cabins, and the second layer has not been visited yet.Thanks to Mu Qingxiang's thoughtfulness, she missed such an important point, and in the end, I was careless and I remembered it first.

The second cabin is at the bottom of the ancient ship. When walking down, there is a sturdy ladder made of high-quality black wind wood.Usually, the last cabin is used to store goods. If this is an ancient jade-protecting ship, there is a high probability that there is a thousand-year-old jade in the last cabin.Walking in along the ladder, the air inside is very dull, but the bottom is not sealed, so the gas inside will not make people stunned and suffocated. The second cabin is all made of black wind wood. Except for the thick dust, everything else remains the same, and there is no collapse of the first cabin.I was amazed that the last layer of the cabin was made of excellent materials, even with bronze inlays, and everything was neat and tidy.However, this cabin is the bottom of the ancient ship, and it is not an exaggeration to use black wind wood for this part to hit the water or even hit the rocks.The dark cabin is full of boxes, and there is also a locked warehouse. I wonder why the Qingshuang Sword is not placed on this floor, isn't it safer here.

I bent down to knock on those wooden boxes to see what was inside, when there was a whimpering sound from the ancient ship.The six calls for help have stopped, and now it is replaced by the crying voice of a female ghost, which is really confusing.Mu Qingxiang looked around for a week, but she didn't see any living figures, and she still looked calm until now.Fortunately, I thought, if it wasn't for her by my side, I might not be able to stay here long ago, probably she is my lucky star. After hearing this, I said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight. If I don't dismantle the ancient ship, I won't be able to find the answer for ten thousand years. Could it be that the ghosts of those who died on the ancient ship are still there and they haven't seen the living for a long time?" , make fun of us tonight?"

I thought Mu Qingxiang would say I was superstitious, but she nodded and said: "It's not impossible what you said, but if it was really the ghosts left at that time, they would definitely not use this method, because the method of six calls for help was not available in the Western Han Dynasty." Invention. Have you forgotten that the six voices for help method was invented after Lu Yu wrote that poem?" I've been disturbed by the atmosphere just now, but I didn't expect it to be so deep. There is some truth to this statement.Now that the six beatings have stopped, replaced by the sound of a woman crying, this situation is not creepy, and it makes people pee their pants.Mu Qingxiang looked up and listened, and finally gave a guess, maybe it was the wind blowing through the forest, not the crying of the female ghost.I also don't want to be suspicious and simply deceive myself to believe this guess, but I think it must be crying. But as soon as I lied to myself, the cries in the cabin became more real.I hesitated and walked to the storeroom in the cabin, and listened to it with trepidation. Damn it, the cry is in this storeroom!Surprised, I asked Mu Qingxiang to come over to confirm, this time it must be true, my ears will not be so hard.This time, even Mu Qingxiang was surprised, the crying was indeed in the warehouse, and she couldn't deny it. This warehouse has only one door and no windows. I don't know if all warehouses are designed like this.I followed the light beam of the flashlight and looked at this gloomy warehouse. It was made of thick and strong black wind wood, which has not been corroded for thousands of years.The warehouse was closed, and the door was unlocked, but when I tried to open it, I couldn't.Mu Qingxiang stretched out her hand to pull me back a few steps, then she shone a flashlight on the black wind wooden door and told me to read the words on it carefully. Those are two ancient characters twisted like twists, and it takes a lot of effort to recognize them.Going forward from the Qin and Han Dynasties, their characters are all ancient Chinese characters, which are difficult to recognize after the Tang and Song Dynasties, but simpler than oracle bone inscriptions. (It’s called ancient Chinese characters, it’s just a current academic name, and it was naturally not called Chinese characters at the time) I felt that I knew these two characters, but after reading it for a long time, I couldn’t recognize them, so I asked Mu Qingxiang what those two characters said. "It is forbidden." Mu Qingxiang replied immediately. "Prohibition? Are you kidding me? Did the word prohibition exist in the Han Dynasty? Isn't it only in modern times?" I questioned. Mu Qingxiang asked strangely: "Didn't you say that your major is Chinese? Haven't you read Sima Qian's "Historical Records"?" How can I patiently read through that kind of tasteless ancient book, and throw it away after reading the beginning, but I have read and waited for the book.Mu Qingxiang didn't understand the purpose of my book selection, and didn't delve into it. She told me seriously that "Historical Records" recorded the historical biography from the age of the Yellow Emperor in ancient Chinese legends to Liu Che (Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty). "Historical Records: Biography of Officials" once mentioned: "The world is full of beauty, the government is slow and prohibited, the officials are not evil, and the thieves can't afford it." It can be seen that the word "prohibition" existed as early as the Western Han Dynasty, and other classics also have this word.As for whether it is consistent with the current meaning of the word, there is no need to discuss it. In short, it is not too far away.I asked Mu Qingxiang how she could recite "Historical Records" because she knew so much. She said it was a book in a mansion in the deep mountains and she had only read it once before.I thought to myself, it’s not a joke, I can remember it once I read it, why don’t I remember other people’s bank passwords. In any case, this "prohibition" also means that others are not allowed to enter or leave.Listening to that burst of crying, my heart was trembling. Could it be that the ancient ship locked the female ghost in it at that time, or why did I write "forbidden" if I had nothing to do.Listening to the intermittent crying, Mu Qingxiang also said what was locked inside, and she was thinking of pushing the door in a daze, completely ignoring whether there was really a ghost in the warehouse. When I saw this, I yelled: "You are crazy, open the door, aren't you afraid of ghosts?" Mu Qingxiang said to me: "Do you think a few pieces of wood can lock up the ghost? Don't worry. Didn't you push the door just now and didn't push it?" I nodded and said yes, since there is no lock on the door, it is possible that the door was locked from the inside.If this is the case, wouldn't the people inside be unable to get out after the door was locked?Just as he was wondering if there were people or ghosts in the warehouse, the crying stopped abruptly, and the ancient ship returned to its deathly silence.
