Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Strange Seal

When the white light shines on the statue, the scene is still quite mysterious.

A white light shines directly down from the dark environment, which looks like a horror movie.

It's just that the people present have received strict training, so the big guys are relatively calm. Of course, the shameful thing like chickens flying and dogs jumping did not happen.

However, this kind of scene is indeed rare, which makes the hearts of those rookies who have seen this scene for the first time beat wildly, and their eyes are almost flying out.

It's just that for Xing Jie, Natasha and Hank, they don't think so, after all, they have seen a lot, and they are all a little numb.

"It's more advanced here than in Mexico, at least it's always in the sun. And here it starts straight away. Alas, to be honest, I really don't want to deal with this kind of thing, that kind of white mirage is too difficult to deal with, and sometimes I can't prevent it at all. ”

"Who's to say it isn't? Every time I think of something like mirage, my scalp is a little numb. ”

But after waiting for a while, Xing Jie felt that something was not quite right.

Because, after the white light shone on the statue, it did not react. The atmosphere at the scene suddenly condensed, which made people feel a little embarrassed.

The statue looked like a scribe's attire, with a high crown and a sword. However, he did not make a heroic posture like the other statues, but leaned forward slightly, his arms stretched forward at the same time, and his hands were in the shape of holding objects. And when you get it, the white light passes directly through those hands.

"The thing you're holding in your hands should be the key to unlocking the mechanism, but what could it be? Why not?"

"You're talking nonsense, would you put the key to your mausoleum in such a conspicuous place? I wonder if it's the kind of square drill that is oversized?"

Xing Jie shook his head, because the statue was five meters high, and it would definitely not be a small thing to hold in two hands of such a size. You must know that Yao Ming is more than two meters tall, and his hand is already the size of a pu fan. How big should that hand be for someone twice as tall as him? The giant square diamond is very large, there is nothing to say, but it is only ten by ten centimeters, and there is no suitable place to place it in those giant hands!

At this point, it can be said that the mountains and rivers have been exhausted. Without a hint, Xing Jie would not be able to open Xu Fu's tomb if they were tired. And another point is that this underground palace is built on an island, and in Xing Jie's location, it is still two hundred meters below the sea level!

If you want to use violence to open this position, it is wishful thinking!

Because if you don't get it right, the whole island will collapse!

And then what?

No one can escape death!

As for where the mechanism in the statue's hand was hidden, it's really hard to guess. After all, it was so chaotic back then, and the army led by Xu Fu and the local natives were inseparable. Although it was victorious in the end, it must have suffered heavy losses.

Didn't you see that even the golden scroll was lost?

Therefore, it is normal that you can't find a way to turn it on.

"Mr. Xing Jie, are you going to leave like this?"

"Why don't you leave? You still want Lulu to cook for you? Hank, I'm not a god, no matter how lucky a person is, there are times when he is unlucky. So you're here to take a turn and finish the finishing touches. Natasha, I'll take the rhombus off and give it back to someone else. Xing Jie shrugged his shoulders and walked to the side.

Thirty-six statues, all of which are treasures in the world of sculpture. Take out any of them, and they're all much stronger than Michelangelo's statue of David.

All the details can be said to be flawless, even the expressions of the statues' faces and the folds on the clothes can be said to be lifelike. Although it is a treasure, it cannot be moved, so it can only be hidden in this boundless cavern.

It's a pity, Xing Jie sighed while watching.

But when he saw the five statues, he stopped. Tilt your head up, and after looking at every detail of the statue countless times, you will start to gather all the team members.

"Who knows more about the seals of the ancient Chinese civil and military attachés?" Xing Jie said loudly as he looked at the overwhelmed team members.

"Report to the captain, I know a little. A member of the Eight Division stepped forward.

"Very good, you come and tell me, from Xia Shang to Qin, what are the characteristics of seals?" Xing Jie asked.

"Generally speaking, the earliest seals unearthed today can be traced back to the Warring States period, and they have a unified name, called ancient seals, which are basically square. Of course, some of them are round. The seals of the Qin State are basically carved from white jade, mostly square, the printing surface is mostly Tianzi grid, and the private seal is rectangular, showing the distribution of the 'day' character grid. At that time, whether it was official or private, there were few expressions of art forms, and there were many square pyramid structures. ”

"Very well, then let me ask you again, is the official seal a unified standard, and will this thing be hung on the waist as an ornament?"

The warrior gave Xing Jie a very strange look, this is common sense, right?

Of course, the official seal is a uniform appearance, and no one is allowed to change the appearance.

Hanging it around your waist as an ornament?

Are you kidding?

In ancient times, in order to avoid suspicion, the official seal was generally placed in a very tight place, and it was never used until it was absolutely necessary.

You must know that if you travel with the official seal without permission, you will be charged with raising troops to rebel.

Xing Jie nodded, patted the warrior's shoulder, pointed to the waist of the statue, and said with a smile: "Then you can help me see, what is hanging from the waist of this statue?"

It was a 30-centimeter-long object made of transparent material, and although it looked strange, it could be seen from the neat, straight edges and precise edges and corners that it should have a very special purpose.

Thirty-six statues, each with one of these strangely shaped things hanging from their waists. It looks like a seal, but the seal and side paragraphs are different.

This is a very strange thing, judging from the armor shape of the statue, the twenty-four statues on the periphery should be of the same level. Since they are at the same level, although their seals can be different, the size of the printing materials is completely different.

As for the seals on the twelve literati statues in the middle, this was also the case, and this situation was absolutely impossible in that hierarchical dynasty at that time!

"Take them all down. Xing Jie said.

This matter was easy to do, and after a while, all thirty-six seals were placed in front of Xing Jie.

The material is very strong, much like the kind of thing used on the protective layer of the mixing tank, it should be a kind of crystal, pure and transparent, without any impurities in the middle. Although the shapes are different, the length and cross-section are exactly the same, except for a very strange depression in the middle of each stamp.

What is this?

It's really hard to guess when you're separated, after all, it's hard to think about what this thing is really good for with its strange appearance. But if you put it together, Xing Jie recognized it at a glance!

"Hehe, it's such a thing, it's interesting. ”

Seeing Xing Jie fiddling with the seals in his hand, the people on the side were confused.

"Mr. Xing Jie, do you recognize what this thing is?" asked Hank in a whisper.

"Of course, this is a Luban lock. Legend has it that it was invented by the public losing class and is used to turn on the intelligence of young children. In fact, it is just a gadget invented by ancient Chinese carpenters in the process of designing mortise and tenon structures. ”

Before he could finish speaking, the thirty-six seals were combined. When Xing Jie put the last seal away, he only heard a click, and the thirty-six seals formed a tightly fitting cube, and the joint could not even be seen at the margin.
