Chapter 141 Jinjiang Debut
Guo Yiyang described the sound as terrifying, and the hairs on the heads of people around him stood up when they heard it. In Guo Yiyang's description, the sound sounded like it came from hell.
Lame Brother couldn't help but frown and asked, "Could it be that Du Dasheng has really been resurrected?"
Bai Mian thought for a while and did not speak. Before seeing the book, she could not make any conclusions. However, she remembered that those who could use the resurrection technique were all people with profound spiritual power. Such masters were rare in the world and it seemed that a country bully like Du Dasheng could not come into contact with them.
"Oh, by the way, look at my poor memory. I haven't given you the electronic document yet!" Guo Yiyang patted his head, took out his phone, added Bai Mian as a friend, sent the document to Bai Mian, and added, "The college student said that the way to decipher this book is to take one word from each line and remove all repeated words."
"Is he trying to trick you?" Brother Cripple suddenly said, "Maybe he hasn't cracked the code at all, and this story of resurrection is just something he made up to fool you!"
Guo Yiyang immediately denied it: "No, that college student is a senior user of the reasoning forum. He has answered many questions. He should be a real person, not a fake. Moreover, his attitude is also very sincere. I don't think he looks like a liar. He's a college student, you know."
Bai Mian opened the electronic document, quickly glanced at the contents, and then a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"That's nonsense," she said.
"Ah?" Guo Yiyang asked nervously, "Master, are you saying that this college student is making up stories?"
"No," Bai Mian shook his head, "I mean the content inside. The content inside looks mysterious, but it's actually completely nonsense and has no effect."
Guo Yiyang seemed to understand: "It's not that the college student deceived me, which means that the person who wrote this book decades ago deceived Du Dasheng?"
Then he said, "If the resurrection is fake, then what about the sound we heard in the tomb yesterday?"
Bai Mian did not answer, but stretched out his hand to him: "I need to feel his pulse to know the specific situation. Give me your hand."
Guo Yiyang obediently put his hand on the table. His skin was very rough, and it was obvious that he had not had a good life in recent years. Bai Mian held his pulse with two fingers.
The guys behind Guo Yi Yang all opened their eyes wide and looked at Bai Mian expectantly. These people didn't say a word the whole time. It was obvious that Guo Yi Yang was the one with the best expressive ability among them and was their "representative".
After a while, Bai Mian took his hand back. Guo Yiyang and the others looked more nervous. He urged, "Master, how is it? Have you seen the truth?"
Bai Mian picked up the phone and typed a few lines in the dialog box before saying, "I see, the story behind this tomb is very complicated."
Guo Yiyang couldn't hide his excitement: "It doesn't matter, we have plenty of time, Master, take your time."
Bai Mian stood up slowly, fanning himself and said, "Let's start from the topic we just discussed. Regarding this book, the college student did not lie to you. It was the person who wrote the book at the time who lied to Du Dasheng."
"At that time, Du Dasheng was already terminally ill and there was no medicine to save him, but he was only 45 years old and thought he was not going to die. He had always been in good health and thought he could live to 80 or 90 years old, and he still had many decades to live."
"Everyone in the Du family thought that Du Dasheng was doomed to die, so they called a Feng Shui master from the next village to help him choose a grave. After the Feng Shui master arrived, Du Dasheng called him to his bedside, and the two had a long talk."
"Du Dasheng told the Feng Shui master about his idea, so the Feng Shui master thought about it again and again and came up with a way to bring him back to life. He told Du Dasheng that the King of Hell was coming to take him away, and no one could deceive the King of Hell, so Du Dasheng had to die."
"But after he dies, the Feng Shui master will use magic to bring him back to life, allowing him to wake up decades later and continue to enjoy his life. Of course, as I said just now, this statement is made up, and this Feng Shui master does not have any metaphysical ability at all."
"At that time, there was only one Feng Shui master in the surrounding villages. Du Dasheng had no choice but to try his luck. Even though he was usually strong, he was filled with fear when faced with such a matter of life and death. Under the influence of fear, he obeyed the Feng Shui master in everything. The Feng Shui master wrote him a book, and he did exactly what was written in the book."
"The Feng Shui master told him to take all his property to the grave so that he could use it after his resurrection, and he did so. The Feng Shui master also told him to take elixirs, build a tomb, and wear a shroud with spells, and he did so one by one."
Lame Brother interrupted, "I really don't understand why the children of the Du family agreed to their father doing this? Taking all the property with him, this really doesn't consider future generations. Wouldn't the children of the Du family object?"
Bai Mian: "They didn't object. They all agreed very quickly. First, Du Dasheng has great authority in the family. The Du family is what it is today because of Du Dasheng. His children dare not disobey him. Second, rural areas emphasize filial piety. The more grand the funeral of the elderly is, the more face the children will have. Third..."
Bai Mian paused, then continued, "Things put down here may not necessarily be impossible to take out again."
Lame Brother suddenly realized: "Oh, the children of the Du family are also planning to rob the tomb! They plan to listen to their father's words first, take out all the valuables, let him take them to the coffin, and then take out the things after the coffin is buried. This way, they can fulfill their father's last wish, gain face in the village, and won't lose their property!"
Guo Yiyang slapped his thigh in pain: "Oh my, no wonder we didn't find anything when we went there. It turns out that the things were taken away by the children of the Du family decades ago. They were the first batch of tomb robbers!"
The onlookers around also started to discuss:
"So it was Du Dasheng's children who did it. Tell me, who would have thought that children would dig up their own father's grave?"
"It's what he deserves. This Du Dasheng's last wish is too outrageous. He did all kinds of evil when he was alive, and he only cared about himself after his death. If I were his child, I would dig up his grave too!"
"It's better to dig it up than to let others do it. Look at these batches of tomb robbers. There's no way that thing can stay in his tomb!"
Bai Mian interrupted everyone's discussion: "You are wrong. The children of the Du family did not take away the burial objects. Although they wanted to dig out the property, they couldn't find it after searching for a long time, so they had to give up."
Guo Yiyang proposed another possibility: "Could it be that the treasure is not in the tomb at all? This tomb may just be a smokescreen thrown by Du Dasheng. He deliberately used this to confuse everyone's sight, and then secretly hid the property in another place, a place only he knew."
Bai Mian: "No, Du Dasheng's property is in that tomb. It remains there until now. It has not been taken away by his children or other tomb robbers. The scene his children saw when they sneaked in was the same as what you see now."
Guo Yiyang was stuck: "But when we went in, there was only an empty coffin inside. Could it be that the burial objects are invisible and only Du Dasheng can see them?"
Lame brother also asked: "Yes, little god of wealth, where is the treasure?"
