Chapter 335
Chapter 335
The tomb of Princess Aogu is also called the tomb of the goddess by the local herdsmen.
As for why it is called the Goddess Tomb?
That’s the point.
Princess Aogu’s real name is Yelu Zhigu, and she is the daughter of Liao Taizu Yelu Abaoji and Queen Shulu.
In the Khitan language, ‘Augu’ means female shaman.
Therefore, Yeluzhigu was called Princess Aogu, and she was also the first Khitan princess who chose to become a shaman.
Section 235
In short, if you are undecided, you should go to the shaman.
It is precisely because of this combination of knowledge inheritance, witch doctors, and sacrifices that shamans had a high status and important power in the early grassland tribes.
And Yelv Zhigu, as the first Khitan princess to become a shaman, has an even higher status.
This can be seen from the tomb, or the underground palace, built for her by Liao Taizu Yelu Abaoji.
The underground palace covers an area as large as dozens of football fields.
Wang Kaixuan, the old Jianghu, was also stunned after entering the tomb, and couldn’t help but sigh, “I’m so good, it’s different for the emperor, Yelu Abaoji is so arrogant.”
Laura came in first, and she was lighting a flashlight at this time, carefully observing the colorful murals on the walls on both sides. When she heard Wang Kaixuan’s ignorant words, Laura gave him a sidelong glance.
“The construction of an underground palace of this scale required a huge amount of manpower and material resources based on the technical conditions of ancient times. Even if Yelu Abaoji was the emperor of the Liao Kingdom, it was impossible for him to waste so many resources for a rebellious daughter.”
“Observe carefully and you will find that this is a natural cave. After being transformed by ancient craftsmen, it became the underground palace it is today.”
“The light is too dim, I didn’t pay attention for a while.” Tangtang touched Captain Jin, but he didn’t notice it. Wang Kaixuan’s face was hot, and he wanted to find a hole in the ground to get into it in embarrassment.
But at this time Li Xu and Da Jinya also came in, and Da Jinya lifted which pot he didn’t open, and deliberately said: “I said fat man, our old Beijing men, you don’t lose when you lose, this is the reason you asked for.” It’s too shabby.”
“Your grandson, you need to clean up, right?”
The two are old friends for more than ten years, and it is a habit to hurt each other.
Wang Kaixuan was not annoyed when he heard Da Jinya’s eccentric words, but waved the Luoyang shovel as if to threaten him.
Da Jinya chuckled, and also hid away jokingly.
Unexpectedly, there was a stone tablet on the ground, and the light in the underground palace was too dark. Da Jinya didn’t pay attention for a while, and was directly stumbled.”Hey, what a wicked bastard is this, put the tombstone here.”
Da Jinya lay on the ground, supported his old waist, let out a cry of pain, and subconsciously looked at the stone tablet that was being pressed by him.
I saw that the stone tablet was dark blue as a whole, and it was engraved with bright red inscriptions like tadpoles. It looked a bit ferocious and bloodthirsty.
“What the hell?”
Da Jinya was taken aback, and his body suddenly fell back.
“This is in Khitan.”
Li Xu squatted down halfway, looking at this stone tablet with at least a thousand years of history and the inscription on it.
“Master Li is worthy of being an archaeologist. He has extensive knowledge and strong knowledge. He even understands Khitan.”
Da Jinya came back to his senses, and quickly offered a warm flattery.
“I said, Lao Jin, you’re almost done. After all, you’re an old man in the antique circle. Don’t be ashamed to keep flattering young people.”
Wang Kaixuan was just annoyed by Da Jinya’s yin and yang, but now that he saw the opportunity, he immediately returned it.
“Fat Master, you don’t understand now. As the saying goes, the strong are teachers. Master Li is very capable. Why should I, Xiao Jin, be more respectful?”
In terms of flattering skills, Da Jinya ranked second, and no one dared to be second. He didn’t take Wang Kaixuan’s ridicule to heart at all, and continued to flatter without changing his face.
“All right.”
Li Xu was amused by these two live treasures, he waved his hands and said, “Calm down a bit, this stone tablet can say that anyone who dares to disturb the rest of the tomb owner will be unable to rebirth forever and fall into the endless hell.”
“Isn’t Princess Aogu a great dancer? How can I clean up some Buddhist words?”
Wang Kaixuan was amazed.
He has been fighting for many years, and he has seen this kind of curse to intimidate tomb robbers a lot, so he doesn’t care at all. Instead, he is amused by the content of this curse.
“Fat Master, you are so ignorant.”
Da Jinya smiled and said, “After the Khitan people established the Liao Kingdom, they were attracted by the culture of our ancestors, and they have been Sinicized long ago. Naturally, this shamanism also absorbed a lot of knowledge about Buddhism and Taoism.”
“Old Jin is right.”
Li Xu nodded, stood up and looked around the underground palace, “Shamanism has integrated a lot of Buddhist and Taoist mysteries in order to survive. For example, the tomb of Princess Aogu was built with Qimen gossip, which coincides with Zhouyi.”
“Mr. Li is really knowledgeable.”
At this time, Ying Caihong and his group also came in, and upon hearing Li Xu’s words, Ying Caihong applauded and asked in a discussing tone: “Since Mr. Li knows the layout and structure of the underground palace, he also knows how to get there. , I don’t know…can you lead the way?”
“Master!!”
Before Li Xu could speak, Yoko who was beside Ying Rainbow suddenly became excited and pointed at the statue in front of him.
The statue is a Khitan warrior on a horse, with armor on his face and a spear in his hand. After thousands of years, he still looks like a bloody warrior.
And on the chest and belly of the Khitan warrior, there is a round copper emblem hidden. The pattern on the copper emblem is complex and magnificent, which is a bit strange and inexplicable.
“Hey, the little girl has pretty good eyesight.”
Wang Kaixuan curled his lips, blocking Yoko who wanted to get the bronze badge, “However, don’t mess with the things in the tomb.”
“You! Get out of the way!”
Yoko looked unhappy, and pulled out the dagger from her waist.
“What’s the matter, do you want to do it?”
After entering the tomb, Wang Kaixuan regained his confidence. When he saw Yangzi draw out the dagger, he was right at all, so he picked up the Luoyang shovel hanging from his waist.
“Mr. Wang, this stone is very important to us.”
With a smile on her face, Ying Caihong took a step forward, and those disciples who were brainwashed by Ying Caihong also took a step, staring at Wang Kaixuan with unfriendly eyes.
“Are there so many people?”
Wang Kaixuan put away the Luoyang shovel cursingly, and turned to look at Li Xu, “I said, Lao Li, what’s your opinion?”
“What the hell is Lao Li called? You might as well just call me by my name.”
Li Xu rolled his eyes, glanced at Ying Caihong and her disciples, and smiled meaningfully, “Ms. Ying, it’s very dangerous to move things in the ancient tomb. I advise you not to move.”
Out of fear of Li Xu, Ying Caihong fell silent when she heard this.
“Mr. Li, this is none of your business.”
On the contrary, the disciple beside her, the brown-haired, blue-eyed foreigner named Mark said nonchalantly, and put his hand into the Khitan warrior’s chest.
Phew…
As soon as Mark made contact, the Khitan warrior and the horse he was sitting on quickly disintegrated into a cloud of black fine ash and scattered.
How should I put it, it was quite sudden.
Mark and several other disciples were covered in black fine ash.
“This…is also corpse poison?”
Thinking of the poisoning of the workers in front of the tomb just now, Mark’s face froze, but he quickly returned to normal. He took out the round copper emblem, and smiled at Yinghong: “Master, it seems that I need to go up to bask in the sun.” The sun… ahem.”
Before he could finish speaking, Mark suddenly coughed violently.
Wang Kaixuan moved away calmly, stood next to Li Xu and said in a low voice, “You and I got to the bottom of it. Did you just talk nonsense just now? Sunbathing can really detoxify corpses?”
Li Xu shrugged, “Those workers can, they can’t.”
“I knew…you are really insidious.”
Wang Kaixuan smiled and gave a thumbs up.
He has long been displeased with this group of five and six foreigners.
“Uh uh…It hurts so much, Master, my body hurts so much.”
At this time, Mark was half kneeling on the ground, and the skin on his body quickly turned blue-purple, with terrifying black tendons surging from it.The other disciples who were poisoned were no exception. They choked their own throats and turned their eyes upwards, revealing only the whites of their eyes with black silk.
“Mr. Li, what’s going on?”
Ying Caihong panicked and asked Li Xu sternly.
“Corpse poison, as I said earlier, you can’t touch anything in the ancient tomb.” Li Xu pretended to be regretful and shook his head.
“The workers who were poisoned just now were fine for so long, how did Mark and the others get poisoned so quickly?”
Ying Caihong clasped her hands tightly, her chest heaving with anger, “And, didn’t you say that sunbathing can detoxify corpses?”
“Yes indeed.”
Li Xu blinked innocently, “But…the corpse poison inside the tomb is too fast, and they probably won’t be able to go outside to bask in the sun.”
“Roar!”
As soon as Li Xu finished speaking, apart from Mark, several other poisoned disciples turned into big zongzi and threw themselves at the living people.
Mark was only one step away from the corpse change. He knelt on the ground and moved towards Ying Rainbow step by step. His purple face was full of pain, “Master, save me, save me.”
While speaking, he stretched out his hand and cast a hopeful look at Ying Rainbow.
Ying Caihong was so frightened that her body trembled slightly. In order to maintain her image in the hearts of her disciples, she forcibly suppressed her fear, stretched out her right hand and squeezed a seal, and uttered the usual catchphrase.
“Immediately enlightened, all living beings will be liberated.”
But the disciples behind Yinghong heard the revered master shouting slogans, immediately raised their heads and closed their eyes, and began to read devoutly, “Immediately enlightened, all sentient beings will be liberated…”
It’s an old pyramid scheme!
Li Xu rolled his eyes.
It has to be said that Ying Caihong is also a talent. From the lover of a wealthy Japanese businessman to a generation of qigong masters, he also established a Universal Spiritual Association, which fooled a large number of wealthy businessmen and second generations.
This legendary experience…ordinary people can’t tell it.
Old inspirational! .
