After Gu Zhisang revealed the truth about the "Morning Grave Sacrifice", the village head's mother-in-law completely collapsed. She fell to the ground with her eyes wide open, shaking her head and muttering, "No...it's not like that..."
She was unwilling to believe that her firm belief was actually a complete joke and the culprit that harmed generations of villagers.
But her mind uncontrollably recalled many details that she had forgotten.
For example, there are not many newborns in the village, so she usually waits until there are three or more children before holding a unified prayer ceremony.
Sometimes, in the same blessing ceremony, there are both babies who are just a few days old and infants who are already one or two years old.
Before the blessing ceremony, those babies were able to eat and sleep well, had round faces, and were not diagnosed with any disease. However, in the few years after the blessing ceremony, their health became increasingly worse.
She and the villagers never suspected that there was something wrong with the blessing ceremony, because it was passed down from their ancestors and every one of them had gone through it this way.
For example, even earlier, when she was not yet the village chief of Poshi Village and was just a little girl learning witchcraft from her master, there were young wives from other villages who married into the village.
To express welcome and celebration, the master will always pray for the bride, implying that they have become relatives of the Poshi Village and will be protected by their ancestors and the mountain goddess.
As a result, the women who married into the village also gradually changed from being healthy to being weak and sickly...
The Great Wizard could no longer deceive himself. A look of dejection appeared on his face, and he looked much older in an instant.
She suddenly thought of something, broke free from the police officer who was supporting her, staggered to Gu Zhisang, and was about to kneel down, "Girl, it was my fault. I didn't recognize the real man and shouldn't have put the curse on you. I kowtow to you. If you can't calm down, I will die as a token of my guilt!"
Two police officers wanted to lift her up: "Old lady, please don't do this."
"Don't worry about me, I did something wrong! I am the sinner of the village, I harmed those innocent children, I deserve to die and I should pay with my life!"
The witch burst into tears and begged sadly, "But those villagers are innocent. They don't know anything and shouldn't have fallen to this point. I beg you, girl, please save them!"
Gu Zhisang leaned forward slightly, his cold eyes staring directly at the tearful eyes of the Great Witch:
"You feel pain now because you feel sorry for your blood relatives. You think they are innocent, but when you cast the curse on more than 30 of us, you should have known what the consequences would be for us."
If she had not discovered it early and dispelled the filthy curse, Li Chenghe and those ordinary program staff would have died.
"Before us, you abused witchcraft and killed other villagers simply because you felt they had offended you. Did you ever consider that they were innocent?"
The Great Wizard's body stiffened as if struck by lightning, "I..."
What is the identity of this female mystic who can even see through her past that she covered up with witchcraft? !
She had indeed poisoned and killed other people. I remembered that there were a few nasty children from other villages who were taught to be very naughty by their parents. They often bullied the children in the village who went out to dig wild vegetables and catch pheasants, and threw cow dung at the gate of their village.
So she cast a curse on those nasty guys, causing them to die with their stomachs full of worms.
The Great Witch didn't think he had done anything wrong.
Talented people like them are born superior and can crush mediocre people with just a flick of their fingers. However, when these words met Gu Zhisang's cold eyes, they got stuck in their throats and could not be uttered.
Gu Zhisang pulled the collar of the witch and wiped the tears from her face, saying in a calm tone:
"Based on what you did, you really deserve to die. You are shedding tears just to relieve your guilt. But I am not a judge, and I don't want your life. You should save these tears for repentance in court."
After saying that, she stood up and turned to leave with a stern expression.
The great wizard behind him lay on the ground and screamed: "Are you going to watch someone die without helping?! You..."
The voice gradually faded away, mixed with a few curse words shouted out of broken defense and despair, but Gu Zhisang didn't even frown. She looked to the side and said, "Officer Gu, why are you following me if you're not going to arrest people and explore graves?"
Gu Xuechun coughed lightly, extinguished his cigarette and said, "I have already notified the higher-ups to send experts over regarding the tombs. How can I, a ghost hunter, go to any tomb? I am just a little curious, Miss Gu, how did you find out that the tombs were hidden under Poshi Village?"
You should know that there is a large tomb in Poshan, which is a legend in the metaphysical world. It is recorded in history books that more than 600 years ago, a Feng Shui master searched all over the country for a famous emperor at that time, and finally found an excellent treasure cave on the border of the southern province.
He personally participated in the construction of the tomb, which contains countless jewels and Feng Shui mechanisms he created himself. It has unparalleled significance both in terms of historical archaeology and metaphysical inheritance.
Over the past hundred years, many people in the Xuanmen have been searching for it and never gave up, but they have found nothing.
In the end, he was found by an unknown female star. How could Gu Xuechun not be surprised and curious?
Gu Zhisang:?
"I saw it with my eyes."
She said in a straightforward and sincere tone, "The previous masters couldn't see it, maybe because they hadn't mastered the Feng Shui and Qi-combining method yet."
Gu Xuechun almost choked on his own saliva, thinking that all those who had come to see him before were well-known seniors among the Xuanmen people. He wrote down in his little notebook:
He is well versed in Feng Shui and is confident and conceited.
Gu Xuechun: "Miss Gu, since you can see the sacrificial curses on the villagers of Poshi Village, can you tell me if people from above come to develop and excavate the ancient tombs under the village, will these villagers be affected?"
"Definitely." Gu Zhisang said, "The imperial mausoleum is the main sacrifice, and these villagers are the sacrifices. Once the tomb is destroyed, the first to be attacked are these tomb keepers. So you can only open the grave after I break the connection of the curse."
Gu Xuechun was a little surprised, "I thought Miss Gu was unwilling to help these villagers."
"You're overthinking it. I wasn't helping them in the first place. Haven't you noticed that the soil and vegetation around Poshi Village have been almost destroyed? These are the aftereffects of forcibly changing the acupoints of the dragon veins. If the sacrificial curse is not removed, the foul air will spread in all directions over a large area and damage the roots of the dragon veins." Gu Zhisang said.
It is not easy for a mountain to give birth to a dragon vein.
The treasure cave where this emperor's tomb is located is the main position of the entire dragon vein. The curse attached to the mountain is like a rotten tumor on the body of the "dragon".
It was painless at first;
But as time goes by, this cancer will grow bigger and deeper, and what will manifest on the surface of Po Po Mountain is a large piece of land with withered grass and desertified soil, which cannot be solved by any medicine or nutrient.
If this malignant tumor continues to expand, it will affect the flow of energy in the entire dragon vein and destroy the spiritual energy that has accumulated in Po Po Mountain for millions of years.
If there is a problem with the dragon vein, all living creatures in the mountain will suffer.
At that time, the negative energy in the tomb will leak out, eroding the vegetation in the mountains and making the land barren. The bodies of other mountain dwellers who have lived here for a long time will also be affected. It is also easy to breed monsters and evil spirits, affecting the country's destiny.
It was after seeing these that Gu Zhisang developed compassion and wanted to help this mountain get rid of the curse of living sacrifice.
Gu Xuechun was choked by her words and wrote in his notebook:
He has a strange temperament.
He went around in circles and finally asked tentatively, "Miss Gu is so young but has such skills. I wonder who taught her."
Before this, their spiritual group had never heard of a person like 'Gu Zhisang' in Xuanmen. It was as if she had jumped out of a stone.
When asked about his sect, Gu Zhisang paused for a moment, then lowered his eyes and said:
“No sect or school.”
At this time, the system secretly complained in her mind: "Sangsang, I report this person for having ulterior motives. He is investigating you and writing a little notebook!"
"It's okay." Gu Zhisang said calmly, "Even if they investigate, they can't do anything to me."
system:!!
That makes sense!
——
At noon the next day, Gu Zhisang set up an altar and performed a ritual, using forceful means to sever the connection between the Poshishan Ancestral Hall and the tomb below it, thus destroying the sacrificial spell.
From then on, the chains on the villagers were completely broken. The mountains and tombs were no longer shackles that imprisoned them. Their lost vitality and lifespan would slowly return to their bodies.
In two generations at most, these villagers will recover and become like ordinary people.
Regarding the matter of breaking the living sacrifice, Gu Zhisang specifically told Gu Xuechun not to reveal it to the Great Witch.
After the witchcraft incident was exposed, the police, under the guidance of Gu Zhisang, found other people who were killed by her witchcraft. The cause of death of those people was due to trivial matters, which made the witch feel that they disrespected herself and offended the Poshi Village.
Some have already been buried by their families;
Some died in the mountains, their bodies eaten clean by animals in the forest, and the police only found some broken bones nearby.
If convicted, the witch will most likely be sentenced to death.
People like her should be tortured by regret and self-blame for their entire lives.
The archaeologists who came to explore the tomb rushed up the mountain overnight and have now surrounded the village. Also rushing over was a Feng Shui master from the spiritual group.
The moment Gu Zhisang broke the sacrificial formation, he was surprised to find that the compass needle in his hand started moving on its own!
The energy and momentum around me began to change, and I could feel a faint sense of vitality flowing under my feet.
风水师又惊又喜，看着顾之桑的眼神直放光：“顾学春，你从哪儿找来这么牛的小大师？！这穴位的风水完全变了！”
顾学春心中苦笑，这要是他找来的还好呢！
怕就怕这顾之桑来历不明又术数高强，这样的玄师万一为非作歹，就是个大灾难！
上头已经对她展开调查了。
风水师还追在顾之桑身边问东问西，“小大师，对于此墓的开掘你有何见解？”
顾之桑说道：
“动工之前需要先把村子的祠堂迁到其他地方，离这个墓越远越好，第一个墓穴口开在祠堂正下方即可。这个生祭仪式存在了数百年，墓穴中聚集的阴气应该颇为浓郁，开坟之后要注意里面很可能会养出凶物；挖开墓穴口后先不要动里面的陪葬品，等上七天后再正式动工……”
除此之外，顾之桑还提出了一个请求。
她希望考古学家们在工作时，能够对周边一些无关紧要的陪葬和陶铁，进行一场考古直播。
虽然殉葬、守陵这样的阴损之事，在六百多年的封建王朝是理所应当的事情，君要臣死臣不得不死；
但坑杀了修陵的匠人，还要把他们的子孙后代都榨干生机，永远不得善终，这样的手段未免太狠辣了。
要是能直播起墓的过程，让越多的人看到，墓主费尽心思想要留住的‘势’就会流失得越多。
最后考古工作人员和上头商议一番后，同意了这个请求。
他们本就想做一期关于考古的纪录片，这座大墓的主人又是历史上非常有名的帝王，若是能做成爆款节目，对考古的科普有很大意义。
将婆婆山之事收尾后，顾之桑和顾学春留了电话。
离开之前，她远远地在前来围观的村民中，看到了你娃的身影。
她冲你娃招了招手，那黑黑瘦瘦的少年人犹豫片刻，走了过来，“你要走了。”
“对，谢谢你当时提醒我们。”
“这哪里要谢。”你娃有些不自在地挠挠头，“山窝窝外头的世界，真的那么好么？”
顾之桑沉默片刻，伸手摸了摸他有些刺的脑袋，“好不好我说了不算，别人说了也不算，只有你自己喜欢觉得好，那才是好。所以你得有能够选择自己人生的能力，你需得看过山外面的世界，才知道自己喜欢的生活在哪里。”
你娃抿着唇，目光坚定，“我记住了，总有一天我会去外面看看。”
告别这个小少年，顾之桑转身离开。
下山的路上，她能明显感觉到整座山中的空气流转，都因穴位恢复更加清透了。
远处绵延的山脊不知何时升腾起白雾，龙脉隐于其间若隐若现，似在翻腾。
忽然，她感到山间一股淡淡的气流朝着自己涌来，蔓入她的灵台；
顿时她体内的力量变得更加凝结，浑身疲惫一扫而空。
顾之桑面露惊讶，朝着山脊的方向道了一声谢。
这竟是龙脉赠予她的一丝功德之力！
像这种已经孕育出灵智的龙脉，半只脚已经踏入了‘神明’的行列，哪怕是一丝一缕的功德，也远非鬼物身上一星半点能比拟的，对顾之桑的修行有大益处。
……
《灵事》第三期的直播还没结束，就再次火上热搜，各种相关词条霸榜了一整天。
#顾之桑，蓝月亮算命#
#婆式村 大山的诅咒#
#刺猬仙儿究竟能有多萌！#等等
一天时间过去后，大部分人的讨论热情降了许多，相关词条就剩下两个在热搜榜末尾吊着，前排又被新的娱乐新闻更新迭代。
这日下午，风平浪静的热搜榜上忽然空降新的词条，后面跟着一个‘爆’字。
#感谢热心市民顾之桑女士提供大墓线索#
不少人看到顾之桑这个名字，下意识就点了进去，然而看完帖子的内容后都一脸懵逼。
“南省警局V：6月23日，南省边陲某山中发现一座规模极大的帝王陵墓，据考古学家初步探测后确定，此墓乃是距今591年前的x朝大墓，墓主人是x朝第三位皇帝。目前并未在墓群中发现盗洞，墓中陪葬品保存完好，具有极高的考古研究价值。特此感谢热心市民顾之桑女士@顾之桑-gzs，为考古研究提供的墓群线索。”
【？？是我眼睛出问题了还是这个世界魔幻了？特意点开看了一眼，就是那个顾之桑，她提供考古线索？开什么国际玩笑啊……】
【真的假的啊，我怎么那么不信呢，这个女星是不是喜欢搞幺蛾子的那个。】
【看看清楚啊家人们，这可是南省警方的官V！！！肯定是真的啊，谁敢拿官V开玩笑啊！】
【卧槽，这看着假得一批的新闻竟然是真的？？央号转发了！！】
几大官博转发点赞后，将信将疑的网友彻底炸了。
【南省！婆式村不就是在南省婆山里，昨天直播关闭后到底发生了什么啊啊啊，节目组快点给我放出来！！】
【纯路人不关注娱乐圈，就想问问现在的艺人都这么卷了吗，都跑去考古了。】
【顾之桑！！以后你就是历史系学生的神！我朋友圈的老师同学都疯了，给大家科普一下这个墓主是x朝最有争议、同时也是最有研究价值的皇帝，历史上有关他的记载和传物特别少，顾之桑能把他老人家的墓翻出来，真的是能在历史书上留名了！】
【无语了，不就是个墓么能不能别营销了，我现在看到顾之桑这三个字都要吐了……】
【桑叶新粉报道，昨天刚因为脸入坑了，今天正主就这么争气直接被央妈表扬了，要不要这么狠，我直接动摇想当真爱粉了呜呜呜。】
【……】
正当热度居高不下时，又是一则重磅消息由国家考古队发出：
“本次考古过程采取直播方式，对考古学、历史学感兴趣的人可以来看一看，会对墓穴中出土的文物、典籍、壁画和朝代历史等等，进行科普讲解，欢迎大家加入～再次感谢@顾之桑-gzs为考古研究做出的贡献。”
无论是路人还是黑粉都不得不承认，顾之桑的这一波操作，是圈内其他艺人无法复刻的。
有圈中对风向敏感的人知道，被官方表扬无异于在路人盘中怒刷了一波好感；
顾之桑这是要咸鱼翻身了！
网上持续热议时，世界的另一个尽头也因为《灵事》节目的第三期沸腾了。
阴曹地府中，从鬼门关到黄泉路、三途川，只要是能飘着魂的地方，聚集在一起的鬼都兴奋地直翻滚。
八卦向来是最调动情绪的，无论是人的还是鬼的。
更何况这些鬼众常年被关在地府，都要闲疯了。
“看第三季节目了吗，我喜欢7号那个选手，她竟然能看出生祭仪式。”
“阳间的网上说要直播挖掘第十四狱鬼王的墓穴，我也想看，阎王殿能不能引进这档节目啊，不能的话我要逃出阴曹跑去人间看了……”
“听说了吗，第十四狱鬼王的老巢要被掀了，是那个叫顾之桑的选手干的。”
“妈呀，那鬼王死后的样子岂不是要被全阴阳界的人和鬼看光了，好社死，我要是它还不如现在就去投胎呢！”
“你们说第十四狱那位都死了六百年了，衣服得烂光了吧，光屁股吗？”
“想啥呢，屁股肯定也烂了啊……”
“嘻嘻鬼王的尸体，好想看哦。”
“……”
第十阎王殿中，翻腾的黑青鬼气中，一张神情狰狞的脸孔若隐若现，这是已经被气到要不成鬼形的第十四狱鬼王——婆山大墓的墓主。
“我要去杀了那个女人！她怎敢？！”
作为一代帝王，它死后因为有功德同时也有大杀孽，成为了滞留在地府的第十四狱鬼王。
但此时此刻，却已然成了全地府的笑话，马上墓中的尸身也要暴露在直播镜头下，成为大众观看调侃之物。
向来心高气傲的鬼王怎能接受，它恨不得现在就去把那个毁它阵法、暴露它墓穴的顾之桑撕成碎片。
七殿泰山王同它交情不错，闻言忙阻止道：“老兄使不得，你已经是地府的阴官了，若是对阳间的凡人出手，可是会受天谴魂飞魄散的！比普通鬼物还要严重！不就是一个尸体么，那都是百年前的生前之物了，还是算了吧。”
“再说了，哪个王侯将相的墓不被挖啊，那些陪葬品和金缕衣不都在阳间的博物馆放着，看开点，你父亲和你爷爷的都被挖了，没什么丢鬼的。”
泰山王在心中汗然，它其实也觉得自己这好友做得也太狠太绝了。
况且它观那阳间的玄师邪乎的很，虽并不是在地府留过名的玄师，但从她数次进出地府来看，应该是个手段通天的人物，好友真的杀过去了到底是谁打散谁，还真不好说！
"A corpse? That's easy to say! When has this king ever suffered such humiliation? I am an emperor, how can those common people be compared with me?!" The Ghost King of the Fourteenth Hell roared, "So am I just going to watch those mortals act so recklessly?!"
King Taishan was silent for a moment, then said, "Brother, didn't you notice that your soul power has been weakened a lot?"
The expression of the Fourteenth Hell Ghost King suddenly changed and looked very ugly.
"This is actually the backlash that the living sacrifice formation brought to you. If the live broadcast in the mortal world is really broadcast, your power will be weakened! You have worked hard to get to where you are today, do you want to fail at the last moment?"
Unlike the Ten Kings of Hell, these ordinary ghost kings of hell are all great ghosts with profound cultivation, and only then have they been given the title of the underworld. If they lose to other ghosts, their titles will be taken away by the other party.
There are countless evil spirits in the underworld, and everyone wants to become a ghost messenger, which means they can ascend to heaven in one step, from a ghost to a 'ghost god'!
Therefore, what the Fourteenth Hell Ghost King needs to worry about now is not his corpse in the human world being dug up, studied, and ridiculed, but once his cultivation level continues to decline, he will have to face countless big ghosts who are aggressive and want to pull him down!
The ghost king of the Fourteenth Hell turned pale and left after a while...
