"Yes, I think so too," Liang Houzai said: "Your first-generation ancestor must have magic. But where did her inheritance in magic come from?"

I thought about it and said, "Did you learn it from the local master?"

Liang Houzai: "I flipped through the books in the Jihun Zhuang Cabinet. There is a book that clearly states that although Zhuang Junping was born to condense his mind power, he really did not have a magical inheritance. He was proficient in the Zhouyi Eight Trigrams, Yin and Yang and Five Elements, but these things were only used in fortune-telling and Feng Shui. The magical inheritance of your first generation was not obtained from Zhuang Junping."

I looked at Liang Houzai and smiled: "You seem to know the first generation ancestor even better than me."

Liang Houzai didn't laugh, and he said solemnly: "Do you know why Grandpa Chai asked my master?"

I said, "I remember that the master said that he went to Xiangxi and Guizhou to find Grandpa Li for the sake of the next old tomb, saying that there were very likely some things related to ancient witchcraft in that cemetery."

Liang Houzai shook his head: "Actually, I think the reason why Grandpa Chai wants to find my master is because the inheritance of your Shuzheng lineage is related to our inheritance. Remember, Grandpa Chai used to say that your Shuzheng lineage has not had a deep attainment in the Chenzhou talisman, but the Soul-Tenchant Talisman of the Shuzheng lineage is one of the best evil-suppressing Talismans today... Well, the attainment of the Shuzheng lineage in Chenzhou talisman is not very good."

I not only frowned: "Houzai, what exactly do you want to express?"

Liang Houzai said: "The three types of talismans passed down from your Shuzheng lineage are not Chenzhou talismans at all, but an older spiritual talisman, just made into the Chenzhou talisman. If I was right, the soul sealing talisman should be a kind of talisman, and this talisman should have been lost long ago."

I couldn't help but wonder, if Liang Houzai had discovered these things early in the morning, why did he say that until now?

Liang Houzai seemed to know what I was thinking. Without asking, he said, "The reason why this tomb can disturb our minds without relying on the Qi field and the magnetic field is probably because your first generation made a special arrangement in the underground palace. The Nine Star Management Watching the Top Bureau, Li Renfeng said that. In fact, it is not a Feng Shui Bureau at all, but a witch array. Our Yelang's ancient book called it the "Abandoned Altar Array". To be honest, if it weren't for such a witch array here, I wouldn't be sure whether the soul sealing talisman of the Shuzheng lineage belongs to the amulet."

When Liang Houzai was talking to me, everyone gathered around, but no one spoke, and I kept quiet, for fear of interrupting Liang Houzai's thinking.

Liang Houzai continued, "The abandoned altar formation and the talismans are all inherited by Wu Xian. They were lost three thousand years ago. I don't know how your first generation ancestor got these inheritances, but she got them and it has been passed down to you. In addition, I carefully checked the ancient books left to me by Master. The Gangbu of your gatekeeper's lineage is almost the same as the Yu Bu created by Dayu, but it has made small changes in some details. Brother Dao, I now suspect that your first generation ancestor discovered the method of suppressing Yin Yu when renovating the ancient tomb of Lunfountain Mountain, and also discovered these inheritances of witchcraft."

Speaking of this, Liang Houzai stopped and took a few sips of water.

I scratched my scalp and said, "What do you mean... these nine large tombs have something to do with the underground palace at the foot of the Luan Treasure Mountain?"

Liang Houzai nodded: "It should be like this. So I think we have to go there again on the Lunfen Mountain to see what is deeper in the ancient tomb."

He said for a long time and found out that this was the meaning, but even though he knew that the ancient tomb under the Luan Tung Mountain was more important than he thought, it would not be of any help to this action.

But at this time, Liang Houzai said again: "It seems that the abandoned altar array should have been activated. If we cannot break it as soon as possible, we will die."

I frowned suddenly: "Why... is this formation very powerful?"

Liang Houzai: "I don't know the principle of formation of this witch formation, but I know that this formation can take away life, and it will take away life without people at all."

Li Renfeng also said: "Ah, yes, I remembered it too. Master said that this Nine Stars Temple Top Bureau can indeed be used to change one's fate. The first batch of soul tickets in the southern ghost market in Shunan were refined in this Feng Shui bureau."

Damn, why didn’t you say such an important thing earlier?

I immediately asked Liang Houzai: "How did you break this array?"

Liang Houzai spread his hands: "How could I know? But I think you should be able to find a way to break the formation. After all, your magical inheritance of the righteous lineage is most likely from these old witchcraft."

I scratched my chin and asked Liang Houzai: "Is the Yin and Yang and Five Elements a set of things that are common in witchcraft?"

Liang Houzai smiled: "There are many places that are connected. If the inheritance of the Shuzheng lineage is indeed extended from ancient witchcraft."

At this time, the master spoke: "To put it bluntly, most of our inheritance of the righteous lineage does come from Taoism, not ancient witchcraft."

This sentence was obviously said to me. I turned around and looked at my uncle, who continued, "Before the Sui Dynasty, the Shuzheng lineage had no inheritance of magic. It was entirely through the absorption of the strengths of the hundreds of schools to form the current magic system. However,... the Fantian Seal is indeed something passed down in the early years. I don't know where the secret techniques related to the Fantian Seal came from. Your master said that those secret techniques are also extensions of Taoist magic, but I always felt that such statements seemed to be untenable."

It is indeed untenable. Since the First Ancestor, there has never been a person who can activate the Fantian Seal in the past two thousand years. Common sense is that since the guardians of the main gates of all generations cannot activate the Fantian Seal, they naturally cannot create magic related to the Fantian Seal.

In the past, when the master borrowed power from the Fantian Seal, he also had some experiences, and extended some magic tricks that were used to perform by the Fantian Seal. However, most of those magic tricks cannot be used when the Fantian Seal is activated, and can only be used by borrowing power.

My master's words woke me up. I remembered that in the secret book left to me by Master, there were indeed annotations on Yin and Yang and Five Elements. To be precise, those words reinterpreted the Yin and Yang from the perspectives of heaven, earth and man. A small part of the remarks can be regarded as shocking. I have never seen other classics interpret Yin and Yang in such a way.

For example, the secret book once said that the two Qi of Yin and Yang are a manifestation of the fate of heaven and earth. It is believed that the world itself has a fixed fate, and Yin and Yang are part of the flow of numerology, but not all. In addition to the Qi field of Yin and Yang, the spiritual charm that living people are born with will also have an impact on the fate of heaven and earth.

I always thought that the "spiritual rhyme" mentioned here should be different from the spiritual rhyme I understand. It should refer to the magnetic field of the human body. But this is just my own idea. I have been busy with the flow over the years and have no chance to verify it.

The master asked me: "You should be confident of breaking the formation in the underground palace?"

Why did you suddenly ask this?

I couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I'm not sure, give it a try. Everyone has almost had a rest. If there is no problem, let's continue to go deeper."

While speaking, I looked at Li Renfeng specifically. Li Renfeng rubbed his chest and nodded at me.

I took the fox fire lantern from Xian'er, put on my waterproof backpack, stopped talking nonsense, and walked straight to the end of the corridor.

Since entering the tomb, my mind has become very messy, and all my thinking seems to be fragmented, making it difficult to calm down and think about problems. But now I must try to recall the contents of the secret book about Yin and Yang and Five Elements, and run them all together.

While walking forward quickly, I kept recalling and thinking, and at the same time I was expecting Liang Houzai's inference to be correct.

In the past, he was always right, but this time, I was not so willing to believe his words. I would rather not have a witch formation in the underground palace, and I would rather that the formation did not have the ability to take away life from us.

More than ten minutes later, we left the corridor and entered an extremely huge space.

This place should be the underground palace. When my feet fell on the stone-paved ground, I heard a slow and empty echo from afar. Not far from me, there was a stone-carved lamp holder. Against the backdrop of the fox fire, the lamp holder showed a dark green with a little black color.

I roughly looked at the structure of the lamp holder. Like the eternal lights near the foot of the door and tripod, these lamp holders are also supported by an eight-sided stone pillar. On the stone pillar, there are also three headless python bodies engraved.

Its appearance seemed to prove to me that the tomb in front of me was established by the First Ancestor.

Mr. Zhang asked me to be careful, saying that if you go around the three halls in front of me, you can see nine towering towers, and those evil corpses that may be in trouble in the towers.

As I kept moving forward, the same lamp holder appeared in my sight, and the distance between each lamp holder was about two hundred meters.

I kept looking for the lamp holder and walked forward. Along the way, Mr. Zhang didn't mean to change my direction, which means that at the end of these lamp holders, the first hall should be the first hall.

The eternal lights in the ghost market are also called "street lamps" or "soul-guiding lamps". Because the structure of the ghost market is complex, many people who enter for the first time are likely to lose their direction. However, as long as you walk along the lamp, you can find the door and tripod foot or find the exit of the ghost market. These eternal lights in the tombs should also have the same effect.

I wasn't sure how far I walked before I saw the first hall in the underground palace. This huge building was made of wooden. Under the corrosion of moisture, it has now become unrecognizable. The beams and roofs have long disappeared, and the walls have collapsed on a large scale. Only the three stone piers in front of the hall gate have remained generally as they were thousands of years ago.

Li Renfeng jogged to me, pointed to the three stone trunks and said to me: "This is a very special stone coffin, called the tomb coffin, and the corpse should be pressed down below."

I asked him, "Is there any explanation for this arrangement?"

"This is a coffin that is buried in the sky," said Li Renfeng: "The corpse pressed below should have been eaten by birds and beasts before being buried in the soil. It means that the sky burial is first carried out, so that part of the body's flesh and blood will return to nature, and then in the soil, leaving an incomplete body for future generations to worship. In terms of Feng Shui, this arrangement also belongs to the transformation of Shengmen into a death gate. The First Ancestor is reminding us that the Feng Shui pattern of the entire underground palace is based on Qimen Dunjia, but Shengmen has been sealed, which means that the Qi field here will not flow out."
