Chapter 121 3 miles of Yinxu Ancient City!
Qin An frowned slightly!
He continued to observe everything around him calmly.
Only seen among the Qiang people.
The cries of mourning rose and fell, and sadness and tears appeared on the face of every Qiang person, as if their own parents had passed away.
So sad!
Crybaby!
But Qin An always felt that their sadness was a bit deliberate...
His eyes swept through the crowd.
Trying to find some clues that could prove that the ancestor's death was faked.
But there was no gain!
At this time, Ling'er was standing next to Qin An.
She lowered her head and shed tears.
Ling'er's body trembled slightly.
Her shoulders were rising and falling, and it was obvious that she was really sad about the passing of her ancestor.
Qin An glanced at her inconspicuously.
What a poor guy!
Her biological father and stepmother wanted to marry her to his stupid brother, and her 'protective umbrella' ancestor passed away. What's more... the ancestor's death was so strange that we don't even know if he had any ulterior motives by being nice to her.
Everyone was mourning.
The ancestor’s burial ceremony officially begins!
I saw twelve Qiang wizards wearing strange costumes. The costumes were extremely red, with some fish gill-like hollows in the middle. The twelve people also wore masks of different shapes on their faces.
Subsequently.
Twelve Qiang wizards began to dance around the ancestor's coffin, chanting songs that outsiders could not understand... It was a bit like the shaman dance in Northeast China?
Even though Qin An is knowledgeable and experienced.
For a while.
I couldn't understand what they were singing.
I could just intuitively feel that there was a gloomy and eerie atmosphere hanging over the entire Shennongjia.
"Ling'er! The dead cannot be brought back to life... Please accept my condolences."
Qin An comforted Hua Ling for the first time.
It wasn't because he was overly compassionate.
It’s just because he will need Hua Ling next time.
"Uh-huh......"
Hua Ling just stopped sobbing.
Qin An said, "Ling'er! Can you help me translate the content of the ballad they are singing?"
"Um...Okay!"
Qin An was looking at the wizard dancing beside the coffin with cold eyes.
For a while.
The Qiang people standing next to him were a little angry.
Last night, Qin An and Ling'er drew the destiny lot, and under the witness of the auspicious beast Ke Diao, they did not leave quietly, but chose to recognize each other. This can be regarded as Ke Diao's blessing for them!
So in the eyes of these Qiang people.
Even though Qin An is Hua Ling's fiancé, he is also their half-son of the Qiang ethnic group.
Now the ancestor has passed away.
It would be fine if he didn’t join in the mourning!
He even dared to look coldly at the wizards who were holding the burial ceremony for the ancestor.
But they were just sulking.
Who made Qin An carry a knife on his back?
Think of this.
These Qiang people suppressed their anger.
snort!
Outsiders just don't know the rules!
"May the spirits of our ancestors bless us! May Qiang City be forever safe! The wheel of time keeps turning! The gate of life and death quietly opens! O ancestor of the Qiang people! Please wait patiently for your soul to pass! Listen to our sorrowful wishes..."
The funeral ceremony begins.
Ling'er's Mandarin singing voice rang in my ears.
Qin An looked up and found that the clouds in the sky seemed to be changing. The originally clear sky gradually became gloomy, as if a rainstorm was about to come.
The Qiang city is surrounded by mountains.
The feeling of subtle pressure on the city is becoming more and more obvious!
Qin An felt uneasy.
at this time.
Ling'er's voice suddenly began to chant: "King Qi's Tomb! Ghost King's Tomb! Thirty miles of Yinxu Ancient City! Puzigou! Ghost Face Cave! Rat guarding the gate while tiger fighting!"
Ok?
Qin An's pupils suddenly shrank.
Could it be that this ballad records the secret of the ancient city of Yinxu?
at this time.
Qin An suddenly discovered.
The scene of dark clouds covering the city of Shennongjia is a bit like the color of the top of the auspicious cloud lock, both of which are gray and dull.
"Ling'er! Show me your half piece of the auspicious cloud lock!"
Realizing that the location of Yinxu Ancient City was within the Xiangyun Lock, Qin An's tone became somewhat anxious.
"Um...Okay!"
Ling'er stopped singing the ballad.
She slowly took off the half piece of the auspicious cloud lock from her neck and placed it in Qin An's palm. After the latter took the half piece of the auspicious cloud lock, he put the two pieces of the auspicious cloud lock together.
Fuck!
Now I understand!
Qin An suddenly realized!
No wonder the old man broke the auspicious cloud lock into two halves last night and gave one to Qin An and one to Ling'er.
If she gave it to anyone in its entirety.
I guess Qin An can see the solution at a glance!
The upper end of the auspicious cloud lock is a dull grayish-white color, while the lower end is emerald green. There are several auspicious clouds in the middle, and the arrangement of the pattern fits the five elements and eight trigrams perfectly!
at the same time.
The steps of the witches dancing beside the coffin became lighter, as if the song had reached its climax, and their voices became sharper!
Qin An just closed his eyes as if he didn't hear anything.
He muttered to himself:
"To find the dragon and divide the gold, look at the winding mountains. Each winding mountain is a hurdle.
If there are eight dangers when closing the door, it will be in the shape of Yin and Yang Bagua.
Kan, Li, Zhen and Dui are divided into four symbols, while Qian, Kun, Gen and Xun contain eight directions.
In all directions there are gates of life and death, and in the mountains and marshes there are winds and thunders."
Qin An closed his eyes.
An invisible compass rose centered on him.
Quietly encompassing the mountains, rivers and land of Qiang City.
"There are seven colorful clouds on the auspicious cloud lock..."
"The burial layout of a large tomb must be north-facing and south-facing! It should be backed by the mountains and face the water, so that the tomb can gather energy and protect future generations."
"The south is the Li hexagram!"
"The north is the Kan hexagram!"
"Li is on top, Kan is on the bottom... Li represents fire! Kan represents water! Fire burns upwards, water flows downwards, the two never intersect..."
Suddenly!
Qin An opened his eyes!
No wonder he couldn’t find the location of Yinxu Ancient City before!
It turns out that the Qiang people's ancestor must die... The Qiang wizards perform rituals to cause strange phenomena in heaven and earth, so that the location of the Yinxu Ancient City can be accurately determined.
Getting angry and suffering from water!
As incompatible as water and fire!
Qin An only needs to find a mountain while the vision still exists.
That mountain must be high enough!
The clouds and fog can only be seen halfway up the mountain!
Moreover, the shady side of the mountain must be close to water to ensure that it does not receive sunlight 365 days a year. As for the sunny side of the mountain, the sky must be clear and the view must be wide enough.
Think of this.
Qin An said in a somewhat urgent tone, "Ling'er! How long will these wizards' shamanic dances last for your ancestor's burial ceremony?"
Hear the words.
A thoughtful look appeared on Ling'er's face.
"Well...it depends on the virtue of the ancestors! For example, when the previous ancestor passed away, there were four rounds of wizards, a total of 48 people took turns to dance! They danced for a whole day and night!"
Hearing Ling'er's words.
Qin An's mood also eased.
One day and one night is enough for him to find the location of Yinxu Ancient City!
