Chapter 303: The Storm is in charge
It was not for nothing that the south wind said this, and in the wooden box were delicate tools, including a small copper hammer, and a few files and chisels, in addition to a wooden plank and a piece of jade.
Those tools are not much to look at, Nanfeng is interested in the board and a piece of jade, the board is a handful long, more than an inch wide, there are two columns of text on it, and there is an imprint in the lower left corner, the text is written in cinnabar, the imprint is stamped with cinnabar, and a special method may have been used when writing and stamping, and it has not faded to this day.
"Do you recognize Dingwen?" Nanfeng looked at Yuan Anning.
Yuan Anning shook his head, "I don't recognize it." ”
"Then how can you recognize those dingwen on the stone plate on it?" asked Nanfeng.
"I used to learn Xiao Seal in my early years, and Xiao Seal is somewhat similar to Dingwen. Yuan Anning said.
"Come on, come on, I don't know grandpa, I don't know my father, you can see what is written on it?" Nanfeng handed over the wooden board with the mark.
Yuan Anning had no choice but to take it, looked at it for a moment, shook his head and said, "I'm not sure if it's right." ”
"It's okay, just say it. "The south wind encourages.
"This should be an edict, the second I'm not sure, I really don't dare to talk nonsense, in case I mislead you......"
"Just pick what you know. The south wind interrupted Yuan Anning's words.
"Edict, the ...... of heaven"
"What a mess, it's still going down to the earth," Nanfeng smiled, and just after he finished speaking, he suddenly woke up, "I understand, it's up to heaven to listen." ”
"Yes, the latter one should be a listening word. Yuan Anning nodded.
"Go on. "The south wind urges.
"Tai Chi Nine Days, Fengyun, these two should be the main things. Yuan Anning stumbled when he read it.
"Tai Chi Nine Heavens Shenxiao Fengyun Academy?" Nanfeng guessed.
"Yes, it should be those words you said. Yuan Anning nodded again.
Nanfeng vaguely guessed something, "Is that last mark the Yuqing Law Seal?"
Yuan Anning shook his head, "It should be Yuqing, the last two are not law seals, they seem to be heavy treasures." ”
Nanfeng took the jade in his hand, the jade is irregular square, there is only one plane, there are a lot of handwriting engraved on the plane, he can't understand the positive Dingwen, and he doesn't understand the nature of the opposite, fortunately, he has cinnabar with him, dip it in cinnabar and cover it in the palm of his hand, and take the wooden card to compare the two, and instantly understand, "This is the Yuqing Sect's book of conferring the law of the heavens." ”
Yuan Anning didn't understand, and his face was puzzled.
Nanfeng took the jade seal and showed it to Yuan Anning, "See, there is a blank space on the law seal, and it can be engraved with the road number." After that, he took the wooden board stamped with the Yuqing Law Seal, "This is stamped with the Yuqing Law Seal, if it is stamped with the Daoist priest's own Law Seal, it can be burned to complete the award." ”
"After the award, you are a Yuqing Daoist?" Yuan Anning still didn't quite understand.
"Yes. Nanfeng nodded, "The head of the Fengyun Courtyard is the first grade Taixuan of the Yuqing Sect, and under normal circumstances, only the master or the master disciple can be awarded. ”
"Why did this person leave a book of conferrals?" asked Yuan Anning softly.
"I'm also wondering, the conferral is not a joke, let alone a product of Taixuan, I suspect that the Yuqing Daoist who lived here back then may have something unfinished, and I want the person who conferred the urn to help him continue to do it. Nanfeng took the bundle of bamboo slips that were originally covered with many miscellaneous items, "There should be clues on this, but unfortunately I can't understand it." ”
Yuan Anning probably understood and nodded.
"Do you want to be a Taoist priest?" asked Nanfeng with a smile.
Yuan Anning waved his hand again and again, "No, no, no, I don't want it." ”
"Really, don't you want to? This is a Taixuan talisman, you will comprehend the Book of Heaven in the future, so as not to ask the gods to do it, sooner or later you will use it. Nanfeng said.
"You want to give it away with the Book of Heaven, I am already very guilty, and I will never try anything else," Yuan Anning shook his head, "You are also a Taoist, this thing is the most suitable for you." ”
"Forget it, I don't want to mess around with the Yuqing Sect. Nanfeng pouted and said, he was the head of the Thunder Academy of the Shangqing Sect before, and this is the head of the Fengyun Academy of the Yuqing Sect, all of them are first-class Taixuan, and I don't know if he can concurrently serve it, you must know that he, the first-grade Taixuan of the Taiqing Sect, was not obtained above board, and then awarded a first-grade Taixuan of the Yuqing Sect, in case he is traced down, don't give it all to him.
"What sound?" Yuan Anning frowned.
Nanfeng listened with bated breath, and there seemed to be an extremely subtle rustling sound in the cave.
When he heard the rustling sound, the first thing he thought of was the sound of snakes moving, but after listening carefully, he found that the sound did not come from the gap on the right side of the cave, but from the copper box on the incense table.
"Did you move that box before?" asked Yuan Anning.
"No," Nanfeng shook his head, "but when I took the wooden box, the copper box made a noise. ”
Yuan Anning didn't ask again, closed his eyes and listened.
"Don't shy away from it, go listen to it. "The south wind urges.
Worried that something would happen, Yuan Anning didn't insist, got up and moved, and walked towards the incense case.
Nanfeng put everything into the wooden box and followed with the wooden box.
Yuan Anning attached the copper box to the ear, and listened carefully to discern it, "There is a leaky pot in it." ”
"Huh?" Nanfeng was stunned, the leaky pot is also known as the hourglass, which is a timing device, although I don't know why the hourglass will be triggered, but once the timer starts, it will inevitably have some kind of consequence when it reaches a certain time, and the worst thing is that no one can predict what will happen.
Not only Nanfeng is anxious, but Yuan Anning is also anxious, the reason why Nanfeng invited her over is to deal with similar things, the hourglass is usually accompanied by organs, and this matter can only be handled by her.
Yuan Anning didn't care about being injured, and moved the copper box to the ground, and came to a preliminary judgment with just one move, "You moved the wooden box to make the Dexiang case unbalanced, which triggered the mechanism, but fortunately, the mechanism is only inside the copper box." ”
"Could it be a thunderstorm?" was the first thing that came to Nanfeng's mind.
Yuan Anning looked left and right at the copper box, "No, there are no firearms in that fashion." ”
This copper box is square, the lid is not on the upper part, after careful observation, Yuan Anning found the clue, moved one of the copper plates to the right, removed the copper plate, and opened the copper box.
In the box is a large crystal hourglass, different from the ordinary hourglass, this hourglass has a total of upper, middle and lower three sections, the upper part is a red fine gravel, the middle is some light green liquid, and the bottom is a bowl size tortoise shell, this tortoise shell is much larger than other tortoise shells, at least nearly a hundred ancient characters on it.
"This tortoiseshell is the book of heaven. "The south wind was unusually urgent.
Yuan Anning raised his hand to signal Nanfeng to be calm, and then carefully took the hourglass out of the copper box.
At this time, the red grit on the upper part of the hourglass was dripping to the middle, and the red grit seemed to be grit but it was not, and it immediately melted and disappeared after dripping into the green water, and the original pale green liquid became darker and darker.
"It's bone water. Yuan Anning said.
Nanfeng wanted to say that he was about to smash the hourglass, but when the words came to his lips, he held it back, he didn't know anything about this hourglass mechanism, Yuan Anning was an expert, if she could smash it, she would have smashed it a long time ago.
"What should I do?" asked Nanfeng eagerly, as there was not much red gravel left on it.
"The mechanism is here," Yuan Anning pointed to the plane at the top of the hourglass, "There is a column of handwriting here, it should be a charm." ”
Deyuan Anning reminded that Nanfeng looked at the top of the hourglass, he couldn't read the words, but according to the writing arrangement, it should be a charm, but I don't know what the charm is, and I don't know what it is for, because I don't know the words.
"There is a depression here, which should be the place where the seal in the wooden box was stamped. Yuan Anning pointed again.
"Ahh......h
