Chapter 107 Mingzuka

Going down the stone ladder, you will reach the bottom after more than thirty steps, and there is another horizontal stone corridor coming to you. Oil lamps were lit on the stone walls on both sides of the corridor, and clusters of pea-sized lights stretched forward, and the corridor was filled with dim lights.

Walking forward for about two hundred steps, we reached the end of the corridor, and there was another large stone gate in the style of a palace.

Ning Tao said: "Ming Tomb? Is this a tomb?"

Yin Molan nodded her head.

"Whose grave?" Ning Tao asked.

Yin Molan's voice was slightly heavy, "Da Ming." After a pause, he continued: "This used to be a base to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, but it failed in the end. There are weapons, armor, and the remains of Zhu Hongyu, the daughter of Third Prince Zhu .”

An indescribable feeling suddenly surged in Ning Tao's heart. His historical achievements have always been very good, and he has a certain understanding of those things in the last years of the Ming Dynasty. The third prince Zhu that Yin Molan mentioned was the fifth son of Chongzhen, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, whose real name was Zhu Cihuan. After the Qing soldiers entered the customs, they killed all the members of the royal family of the Ming Dynasty. Only this Zhu Cihuan survived. He was taken in by an official surnamed Wang and renamed Wang Tuyuan. He lived until he was in his seventies before he was discovered by the Qing court. . He had a daughter named Zhu Hongyu, and folk history also said that she had a love affair with Yongzheng. There is also a saying that she was the daughter of Yang Qilong, a righteous man who opposed the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty, and later hanged herself in front of the grave of the real third prince Zhu. These are all legendary stories in folk unofficial history, and now there is no way to study them. Unexpectedly, the remains of the legendary Zhu Hongyu were actually here.

Yin Molan pushed open the stone door.

Behind the stone gate is a natural cave, at least the area of ​​the front square, there are many large and small fork holes in the cave wall, there is no light inside, it is dark, and it is not clear what is inside. Stalactites of various sizes and shapes hang from the cauldron above the head. The sound of tick-tock echoed in the quiet space.

There is a spring pool in the middle of the cave, which is gurgling and steaming. This cave is also chilly because of its existence, and the temperature is almost zero.

That cold spring pool is obviously not an ordinary mountain spring.

Ning Tao suddenly remembered that the first time he came to Dawan Village, the location of the spiritual soil he detected with the soil-seeking inkstone was underground. With a movement in his heart, he quietly awakened the state of seeing and hearing skills of the eyes and nose. As a result, he saw that the cold air from the cold spring contained spiritual energy, and the spiritual soil detected by the Xuntu Inkstone was indeed there. In the spring pool where cold springs gather.

Yin Molan said: "The remains of Zhu Hongyu are in that spring pool, I will tell you nothing, there is spiritual soil under that spring, and the spring water is also a natural cold spring spirit, the remains of Miss Hongyu have not rotted for hundreds of years.

"

"Can I go and have a look?" Ning Tao could no longer control his curiosity. The remains of a Ming woman have been preserved to this day. If it gets out, it will definitely be a sensation in the world!

Yin Molan said: "Of course, come with me."

Ning Tao and Qing Zhui followed Yin Molan to the side of the cold spring pool, and Zou Yulin knelt on the ground with his legs bent. Ning Tao froze for a moment, although he didn't kneel down, he bowed deeply. Just as he was bending over, his eyes shifted to the cold Lingquan, which was filled with cold air, and as a result, his back was numb a lot.

The brain tissue of a person was soaked in the bottomless spring pool, with a pale eyeball and a skull the size of a palm. Those pale eyeballs also seemed to be staring at the people on the bank, as if they might turn around at any moment, how creepy!

In Ning Tao's imagination, there should be a stunning beauty lying in the spring pool. Although she died, the body did not rot due to the spiritual energy of the spiritual soil and the freezing effect of the cold spring, but she did not expect to be soaked in the spring pool. The one in the movie is actually such a "character beauty".

Qing Zhui was obviously also disgusted, she only took one look and backed away without even bowing.

Ning Tao endured the feeling of nausea, and looked away from Zhu Hongyu's brain tissue, and then he saw a piece of spiritual soil at the bottom of the spring pool, which was irregular in shape and larger than the spiritual soil he obtained from the small island in the middle of the river. Almost half as small. But even this small piece of spiritual soil is a coveted cultivation resource. In this world where spiritual energy is scarce, this small piece of spiritual soil is undoubtedly worth a pot of water in the desert to a cultivator.

After looking at the spiritual soil, Ning Tao also backed away, and said a polite word, "Miss Hongyu, please rest in peace."

He moved his eyes to look elsewhere, and he saw some large wooden boxes, which contained armor, and dozens of weapon racks, on which were placed knives, swords, bows and other weapons. However, those well-preserved weapons and armor have not escaped the erosion of time. Each weapon is rusty, the bow string is broken, and the armor is rotten, so it cannot be used at all.

He also saw a cardboard box with "ice cream" printed on it in a corner, and the mystery of where the ice cream came from was solved.

Yin Molan suddenly reached into the spring pool and picked up the palm-sized skull.

Ning Tao was very curious about why Yin Molan picked up that skull, but he didn't ask.

However, Yin Molan handed the skull to Ning Tao, and said, "The prescription of Xun Zu Pill is on this skull, take a look."

Ning Tao felt uncomfortable in his heart, but he still reached out and took the skull over. When the skull was touched, a cold feeling came immediately, but that was because of the cold spring soaking it, it was just an ordinary skull.

There was nothing on the front of the skull, Ning Tao turned it over.

There are small blue characters on the back of the skull: all things have roots, and you can get the Tao by seeking the roots and asking the ancestors. There are spirits in the heaven and earth, and those who refine the way of spirits can be immortals. The root grows in the soil, and it is based on the spirit soil as the base of the ancestral pill, adding fifty thousand ginseng, sixty centenary female dead bones, and twelve white hairs of virgins...

There are a total of 27 kinds of medicinal and spiritual materials on the skull, but not all of them.

Ning Tao was surprised and confused, and secretly said in his heart: "Everything has roots, and you can get the Tao by seeking the roots and asking your ancestors. This sentence can be understood as that there are connections between all things, and some specific information will also be passed down among all things. The mystery of the origin of human beings is hidden in it. From a scientific point of view, there are important secrets hidden in the gene chain, even including the secrets of the origin of human beings and other species. Unlocking those secrets will lead to enlightenment. Heaven and earth have Spirit, those who refine the spiritual path can be immortal. Can this sentence be understood as... people who have successfully searched for their ancestors and attained the Tao can use the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to train them to become immortals?"

These are all thoughts elicited by a skull.

"Brother Ning, do you remember?" Yin Molan asked. With blood as an alliance, his name for Ning Tao has also changed.

Ning Tao put away his thoughts, "Senior Yin, I'm afraid I'll miss out so much content, I want to copy it down, can I?"

"Yes." Yin Molan said.

Ning Tao opened the small medicine box, took out a pen and an ordinary prescription sign, and began to copy the contents on the skull.

"I gave Lin Qinghua half of the prescription content, and he made some supplements from the biological point of view, with some breakthroughs, but it is still far from my expectations." Yin Molan said.

Ning Tao asked casually: "How much content is there in the prescription you gave Liang Keming?"

Yin Molan said: "It's still half, but I replaced some spiritual materials and medicines. Liang Keming has the research foundation left by Lin Qinghua, and his starting point is higher than Lin Qinghua. He is also an outstanding scientist in biology, but he will I don't know what to research."

After Ning Tao finished copying, he handed the skull back to Yin Molan.

Yin Molan held the skull in both hands, and carefully put it back into the cold spring.

Ning Tao tentatively asked: "Why is there only this for Miss Hongyu?"

Yin Molan kneeled and kowtowed three times before standing up and talking to Ning Tao, "History books say she hanged herself, but that's not true, she is..."

"What is she?" Ning Tao asked.

Yin Molan stopped talking, "Of course I will tell you after you refine the Xunzu Pill."

Ning Tao said: "Well, you can talk to me after I refine it. Now, I want to learn about the situation of Tangmen from you. Is it okay?"

Yin Molan said: "Of course there is no problem, but you have to be mentally prepared, because what you have to deal with is not an ancient Jianghu sect, but a huge interest group. Some people in Tangmen entered the political circle and became officials, and some entered the army. The world has become a military officer, and some people run businesses and start companies, a family has accumulated for hundreds of years, can you imagine what kind of interest group it is?"

Ning Tao smiled lightly, he didn't care.

Yin Mo seemed to have seen through Ning Tao's thoughts, "Okay, let me give you something. The Tang Sect has a secret lair in Daba Mountain. You can understand it as the Tang Sect's ancestral home. The current Tang Sect's The headquarters are in Shancheng, Jiangbei High-tech Zone, Tang Group, and Dingtian Building."

"This is indeed valuable information, thank you, Senior Yin." Ning Tao said: "In addition, I would like to ask Senior Yin to do me a favor."

"what do you want to do?"

"Help me find a guy named Huai Kebing, he is in the mountain city, he is Tang Huaiyu's son."

"Tang Huaiyu's son, that is Tang Shoucheng's nephew. Okay, no problem, give me two days, and I will definitely find him." After a pause, Yin Molan added, "What happens after you find it?"

Ning Tao smiled slightly, "Just tell me, and I'll do the rest. I just need you to give me a punch when I'm fighting that old fellow Tang Tianren."

"Then he must die, and no future troubles can be left behind." A cold light flashed in Yin Molan's eyes.

A cold smile emerged from the corner of Ning Tao's mouth, "Cut the grass and roots."

"Go back and wait for my news. Also, keep the secret here." Yin Molan said.

Ning Tao nodded, and then left with Qing Zhui.

Along the way, Ning Tao couldn't help thinking about the pale brain tissue, pale eyeballs and that skull...

Can Xunzu Pill really seek the roots and ask the ancestors, and get the Tao and ascend to the immortal?

This is too mysterious, right?
