123 Chapter 12 Section 6

When Xu Yunde heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised. What would hundreds of ghosts look like in a cave? Isn't it no different from Huangquan? But this can also explain another problem, that is, there must be something extraordinary in the cave! This made the person who built this cave lock these ghosts in it so much. Thinking of the treasure, Xu Yunde was inevitably a little excited. He said, "Great Immortal, what should I do next?"

Wang Changgui said, "Don't worry, there are a few things I haven't figured out yet. There are hundreds of ghosts in the cave, but why did only one of them drill to the bottom of the White Horse Pond some time ago? In addition, why is that ghost so weird after being attached to Fugui? Another thing is whether this cave has anything to do with the giant python sealed a few years ago?"

After hearing several doubts raised by Wang Changgui, Liu Ping was also in thought. Xu Yunde later heard Liu Ping mention the giant python and did not know much about the situation at that time, so he asked, "Wang Daxian, what happened at that time? Where did that giant python come from?"

Wang Changguidao sighed, and then told the story of that year.

Xu Yunde was also full of incredible expressions. It was not until Wang Changgui finished speaking that he spoke: "Great Immortal, you can hear that the strange and righteous people in ancient times often used some monsters to protect the treasures they hid, and giant pythons were the most common among them."

Wang Changgui nodded and said, "You are right. There are indeed some strange people who will subdue some monsters and make them protect the treasures for themselves. But you don't know that the giant python under the huge stone well is too huge, which makes me never think that someone will surrender it to protect the treasures for them!"

Liu Ping nodded and said, "That's right, Brother Xu, you were not present at that time and had never seen the giant python look like. If you saw it, you would definitely not think so. Besides, the giant python has been suppressed by the snake-tailed toad and is in a dormant state. How can you protect the treasure?"

Xu Yunde shook his head and said, "The so-called treasure-protecting beasts are mostly dormant. Once someone breaks in, they will wake up and destroy the trespassing people. Besides, you said that Ma Laizi was going down from the wellhead at that time, and it was not enough to just blink the eye, and the giant python woke up?"

When Liu Ping heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little speechless. When she thought about what happened back then, she really felt something strange. The giant python that had been sleeping for hundreds of years did not wake it up when she dug the well. Ma Laizi went into the water and pulled out the snake-tailed toad jade pendant and woke up. From this point of view, it really looked like it was set up specifically to deal with treasure hunters.

Xu Yunde then pointed to the picture and said, "In addition, Wang Daxian, do you think there are any strange things about the cave layout diagram you drew?"

Wang Changgui nodded and said, "This is the trend of the dragon's tail. It is an extremely rare method of creating a cave and hiding treasures. Even in ancient times, many dynasties used the method of placing the dragon's tail into a cave when burying dragon veins."

Sun Ji asked in confusion: "What does this dragon-headed tail mean?"

Wang Changgui explained: "You see, the location of this cave is actually just below the Baimatan, and the entrance is also here. However, to enter from the entrance to the cave, you must turn a large circle along the corridor. If the cave is compared to a dragon's head, the entrance to a dragon's tail, and the corridor is the body of a dragon, then isn't the dragon's posture holding its own tail?"

After hearing Wang Daxian's explanation, Sun Ji and Liu Ping understood it only after they heard about it. Sun Ji muttered: "This ancient man was really idle and had nothing to do. Since the cave and the entrances were all together, why did he have to make such a long corridor? Isn't this an unnecessary move!"

Xu Yunde shook his head and said, "Brother Sun, you don't know anything. In ancient times, those treasure-hiding people paid attention to the word "guard". Building treasure caves is different from cultivating tombs. Treasures are not very important to Feng Shui. They pay more attention to the terrain and formation. Lu Tianfan chose the "double python guarding treasures", and this cave uses a dragon-headed tail, which can indicate that the treasure-hiding people attach great importance to the direction of the terrain and the use of formations."

At this moment, after listening to the explanations of Wang Changgui and Xu Yunde, Liu Ping's mind gradually became clear. He took Xu Yunde's words and said: "Maybe we can understand this way. Whether it is the direction of these terrain or the use of formations, they all point to the ultimate goal of the treasure-hiding people, that is, to facilitate them to set up various treasure-protecting mechanisms, enemy-defying formations, and to place those evil things that protect the treasures."

Wang Changgui touched his beard and then said, "Xiaoping is right. Anyone who can use these techniques to hide treasures will be more precious. And the dragon-tail technique was used under the Baima Pond. I really don't know what treasures are hidden in the treasure cave."

Xu Yunde pondered for a moment and said, "Wang Daxian, there are hundreds of ghosts guarding the cave. If we want to rush in, it is probably unlikely. Do you have any better ways to restrain those ghosts?"

After thinking for a while, Wang Changgui said: "I think we need to figure out the second question I just asked, and maybe we can find a way to suppress those ghosts."

When Liu Ping heard this, she hurriedly said, "What you just asked is why Fugui was so different from the ordinary ghost after being overwhelmed by that ghost. Could it be that these ghosts are not ordinary ghosts?"

Wang Changgui said: "I can't explain clearly now. When I was in the cave today, I found that those ghosts seemed to be subject to some kind of power and seemed to have the same consciousness. In short, it was very strange! But there was another doubt that was not solved, that is, why only the ghost attached to Fugui drilled out, and why didn't the rest drill out?"
