Good Shepherd

The door of the tomb opened slowly and sluggishly, and only the roaring sound of "rumbling" could be heard continuously, which only added psychological pressure to people. After a long time, the door of the tomb only opened a gap of two palms width.

At this time, the music was loud.

It is indeed the sound of chimes, but it is not just chimes. It is very complicated, and it feels like an ancient orchestra is playing. It has eight tones of stone, soil, leather, silk, wood, gourd and bamboo, but there are only some musical instruments.

It seems that it has been damaged by the passage of time, and the sound it makes is hoarse and difficult to identify without listening carefully.

Brother Yao Zi generously shined the flashlight directly into the crack of the door. Unfortunately, the tomb was too big and seemed dark and deep. It was impossible to peek through the two-hand-wide gap.

Lao Bai complained: "The squeaking is really unpleasant. What kind of ghost is playing? Can you get a serious guy to play and sing again? What are these playing and singing about?"

"If you are uneducated, don't talk. It's shameful!"

I said: "This is elegant music, which is not meant to be listened to."

Although Yale has the word "elegant" in it, it actually doesn't sound good. Not to mention that the instrument is obviously damaged, even if it is a complete instrument, it won't sound good.

To be precise, this is the sound of sacrifice!

The ancients emphasized ritual music, and the "music" in it refers to this thing. It is not the same concept as today's music. In ancient times, this thing was used to show authority and educate the world.

Up to now, the ancient rituals and music have actually been lost. The closest ones are the Ming and Qing dynasties. The emperors of these two dynasties used Zhonghe Shao music when they came to the throne. I heard that it seems to have been gradually restored in modern times.

, but there is nothing that can be done about the ritual music used further forward.

"This should be one of the great music of the Six Dynasties. The so-called great music of the Six Dynasties is the "Da Juan" written by the Yellow Emperor, the "Daxian" written by the Emperor Yao, the "Da Shao" written by the Emperor Shun, the "Da Xia" written by the Emperor Yu, and the "Da Xia" written by the Emperor Yao.

"Da Yi" and "Da Wu" of the Zhou Dynasty, the elegant music used by future emperors, whether they ascend the throne or perform sacrifices, is nothing more than from this. It can be said to be the true imperial voice. There are these obvious violations in Li Chengyu's tomb

It's normal to have something to do. The less you are an emperor and the more you want to be an emperor, the more you have to emphasize the emperor's honor guard."

I thought for a while and said: "The first emperor of Qin destroyed Qi and got the music of "Shao" from Qi; the emperor of Han destroyed Qin again, "Shao" was passed on to Han, and the emperor of Han changed its name to "Wenshi". In the Wei and Jin Dynasties, Cao Pi also changed the name of "Wenshi" to "Wenshi".

The Tang Dynasty was not sure about the change of "Beginning" back to Da Shao, but after the Wei and Jin Dynasties, rituals and music collapsed, and barbarians disrupted China. It was only in the Sui and Tang Dynasties that the origins were restored. The Li and Tang royal families were members of the Guanlong Group, and they had to be extra special to win the world.

Emphasizing that he is authentic, he will definitely follow the system of the Qin and Han Dynasties. I estimate that some important ceremonies in the Tang Dynasty, such as enthronement, conferring Zen, etc., also use "Da Shao", so I guess this should be

"The Great Shao" has a history of more than 800 years. It is an eye-opener to see it."

After the initial uncertainty, a group of people calmed down, listening to the muted instrumental music and quietly waiting for the thing inside to show its fangs.

The most interesting thing is that I actually have a sense of anticipation that I only get when unpacking a package. I really want to see what the things in the main tomb are trying to do with their magic.

When the tomb door was mostly open, the answer was finally revealed.

Several of us had long since copied the guy and were on full alert, but in the end our alertness failed us!

There is no green-faced, fanged thing that chooses people to devour.

The dark tomb was too big, and it was filled with evil miasma that had been sealed for too long. It had an ethereal feeling. You could only vaguely see the dark shadows inside, as if countless ghosts were dancing.

The living turned a blind eye.

"Pretend to be a ghost!"

Brother Yaozi held a flashlight to see what was unclear. He was heartbroken and walked towards the tomb. Fortunately, he knew what he was doing and did not rush in recklessly. He stopped when he reached the door.

.

An interesting scene appeared.

The short knife in his hand was trembling slightly, as if an invisible force was snatching it from him.

However, Brother Yaozi only had a flash of strange color on his face and did not have any particularly violent reaction. It should not be caused by some ghost or god.

Then...it should be the magnetic field!

There is a strong magnetic field in the tomb!

I followed him, and sure enough, the Baipi Dao in my hand was also affected.

As the people got closer, the situation in the tomb finally became clearer.

Nearby, about thirty or forty people with stiff limbs were busy. It really looked like a band. Some were beating fou, some were beating on a long series of chimes, and some were hugging.

A black sheng that had long since decayed into coke was hanging down. In the middle, there were eighteen or nineteen people jumping around, as if they were dancing, but their limbs were too stiff and there was no sense of beauty at all.

In the dark, watching these stiff things perform is like watching a shadow puppet show.

Behind the band is a high platform with steps, but it is by no means a coffin platform. There are no coffins in the entire tomb, only a huge chair on the high platform. It is too far away to see clearly.

But the outline has already told me that it is a dragon chair. There is a stone table in front of the dragon chair, and on the dragon chair, there is a person sitting impressively!!

A seemingly small person...

Thinking about it, that little person must be Li Chengyu's body. It was so motionless that it was hard to tell what was going on.

The most eye-catching thing is the hole under the high platform. The hole is not big, just big enough for one person to crawl through, but it is not just a robbery hole!!!

Brother Yaozi obviously noticed this robbery cave and was very surprised for a moment. He suddenly shined the flashlight towards the robbery cave. When the beam of light focused there, a little golden light flashed away...

That is the golden thread we have seen before, and it is the method of Thieving Saint Wen Tao!

This guy not only robbed the tomb where the funerary objects were placed, but also visited the main tomb, and finally dug a hole through the main tomb to get deeper...

What on earth is he going to do?

I was thinking about it for a while.

In addition, I also noticed that wherever Brother Yaozi shined the light, both the floor and the walls of the tomb showed a dark red color.

That should be iron oxide, or it can also be called Venice red. Of course, the more professional and academic it is, it should be called iron oxide. This thing is particularly suitable for making magnetic materials, and some artificially arranged magnetic fields

This thing is often used here. The ancients may not have a complete chemical system, but they have a good understanding of these things by chance. As far as I know, the ancients' use of iron pills can be traced back to the Warring States Period, and the pre-Qin Qi refining period.

Scholars like to use this thing most, and the Taoist alchemy lineage also likes to use this thing. Of course, they use this thing to color the elixir, and then... eat it!!

As for the dancing people, they looked weird.

They had clothes on them, but they were already rotten. However, the corpses did not look rotten at all. They were like some incorruptible corpses soaked in water. Their skin was pale and plump, but they were not soaked.

The water-soaked corpse had a swollen appearance and thin limbs. If it weren't for the stiffness of its movements, at first glance, one would have thought it was a living person!

After watching for a moment, Brother Yaozi turned to me and asked: "Did you see anything?"

I'm still thinking about it.

This situation is really weird. The things inside were playing and singing to themselves, as if they didn't notice us at all. Everyone kept the same, and connected with the magnetic field, etc., which gave me some ideas, but I didn't dare to take risks.

, hesitated for a moment, and asked my master: "Master, the one sitting on the dragon throne... was the resentful corpse that was spying on us earlier?"

"Not sure."

My master said with some embarrassment: "At least, I don't feel anything strange right now."

I nodded and said nothing.

"What on earth do you mean!"

Lao Bai was anxious and pushed me: "Thank you for saying something. Can you enter this tomb...?"

I knew he was very curious about the thief's cave, and I was the same. I had too many thoughts. I hesitated for a moment, and then I said, "I'm afraid I'll never come back. I saw those things playing and singing."

Well, that’s the legendary good husband!!”
