Chapter 0581 The River and Sand of Time

Mark Amin already has a number of guests at home, some of them Rheinmetall executives, some of his relatives and friends, and two big names, black entertainment diva Rihanna and Bayern Munich's star Thomas Müller.

A diva of the entertainment world, a world-class football star, Rihanna and Müller are somewhat surprising to be here, but in terms of Mark Amin's status as CEO of Rheinmetall, it's not surprising that he has friends like Rihanna and Müller. Although Rihanna and Muller are much more famous than Mark Amin, in terms of the weight of their status, they are far inferior to Mark Amin.

Although Xia Lei has heard a lot of Rihanna's brother, and also watched Muller's friendly match with the Bayern team against the Chinese team, he only glanced at the two of them, and did not go up to say hello and ask for an autograph or something.

Sylvia, on the other hand, became excited when she saw Muller and Rihanna talking by the living room window, and she said to Charleigh, "Wait for me, I'll ask for an autograph." You know, I'm a fan of Rihanna and Muller. Ah, I'm so lucky. ”

"Go ahead, I'll take a look. Xia Lei said.

Sylvia walked over to Rihanna and Muller.

Charlei took a glass of beer from a waiter's plate and walked towards an oil painting.

It was an old-looking oil painting of a battle. The battle took place on the beach, fought by Vikings, and behind them were several Viking ships. On the other side of the battle seemed to be the Gauls, behind whom were smoking villages and churches.

The Vikings were fierce, but the Gauls were also notoriously aggressive, fearless and tall. They seem to be fighting for the village and the women and children behind them, and their homes and families have given them even more courage. So from the point of view of the painting, the Gauls clearly had the advantage.

"Could it be that this battle is what Sylvia said about the defeat of the Vikings, and in the end there was only one female pirate left, and later, the female pirate succeeded in revenge, took over the town and named it 'Valeri's Box Town'?"

The main and only reason why he was interested in this story was the "box". Ever since the X-Mythrid project came to a standstill, he couldn't help but pay attention to anything related to the box. The box and everything were about to become his magic barrier.

Charleigh's gaze slowly swept over the painting, and suddenly stopped on the face of a Viking. At this moment, his heart seemed to stop beating, and even his thoughts were frozen by something.

The pirate had a peculiar necklace around her neck, the pendant of which was not a gold or silver ornament, but a piece of bronze metal.

That is, this bronze metal, Xia Lei is very sure that the piece of ancient alloy he took out from Princess Yongmei's mouth in the tomb of Tomorrow City on the White Horse is the piece that the Viking female pirate wears around her neck in the painting.

At this moment, Xia Lei's brain suddenly opened.

He thought of many, many things, and thought of far, far away.

Heroic Spirit's Box Town, this is not a random name, this name is most likely related to the ancient alloy box. Heroic spirits, on the other hand, do not simply refer to Viking beliefs, and may imply spirits associated with boxes. For example, a real soul like Princess Yongmei, not a soul who goes to heaven to drink and brag.

The Vikings invaded Europe from the 8th century to the 11th century AD, a period of time when there was no Ming dynasty or the Kingdom of Jerusalem. Later, the Crusades, the kings of Europe led their armies to conquer the Middle East and established the Christian Kingdom of Jerusalem in Jerusalem. The ancient alloy block around the neck of this Viking female pirate was exiled to Jerusalem during that period, and later fell into the hands of the Ming Dynasty princess Zhu Xuanyue. Centuries later, it fell into the hands of Charleigh.

In the dark, there seems to be a mysterious force controlling an unknown event, and the people involved in it are just a grain of sand in the river of time, a rise and fall, or sink to the bottom of the river, or disappear with the waves. Princess Yongmei of the Ming Dynasty was a grain of river sand, and the mysterious old man lying in the crypt of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre was also a grain of river sand.

"Could I be such a grain of river sand?" Xia Lei couldn't help but think in his heart.

Such thoughts made him miserable, and his greatest wish was to collect all the ancient alloys, piece the box together, and unlock all the secrets. But now it seems that throughout the ages, I don't know how many people have the same dream as him, and they have also made efforts. But as a result, no one did!

Charleigh's gaze once again fell on the face of the female pirate in the painting. Perhaps because of her age, the lines of the female pirate's face were not clear, and the colors were a little blurry, so it didn't look clear.

Perhaps because he couldn't see clearly, Xia Lei's left eye jumped slightly, and his ability to see quietly awakened. Patches of color, lines between colors and colors, enter his left eye, and his brain reorganizes according to what he sees in his microvision. This process is like using 3D stereoscopic projection technology to rebuild a collapsed building. Every brick, every rebar, and even every grain of sand on the ruins was restored to its original place.

Three minutes later, Xia Lei got a different face.

The face startled him.

The female pirate in the painting, her face, is the face of Princess Nagami!

I don't know if the person who painted this oil painting painted the face of Princess Nagami, or if he was very clever and hid a face belonging to Princess Nagami under the face of a Viking woman. This technique is not unused, the world-famous "Mona Lisa's Smile" has used this technique, and some scientists have found that there is a non-smiling Mona Lisa's face under the smiling Mona Lisa.

"This ...... How is this possible!" Xia Lei's heart was shocked.

From the time he came into contact with Princess Nagami, he had seen two corpses of Princess Nagami, and now he saw Princess Nagami's face on an oil painting. And the content of the oil paintings, the warring Vikings and Gauls, at that time even the Ming Dynasty did not have!

Without the Ming Dynasty, where did Princess Zhu Xuanyue come from?

It would be easier to understand if the body of the old man was not found in the burial chamber under the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, and that the body found every time was the body of Princess Yongmei. However, there is another corpse that is not Princess Yongmei's. In this way, even with the smartest brain in the world, Xia Lei feels that his IQ is not enough.

"What the hell is going on? Is she lying to me? She's not a princess of the Ming Dynasty at all? But I've talked to her, and she knows everything about the Ming Dynasty, the Yongle Emperor, the Ming Dynasty's Jinyi Guard, the Ming Dynasty's Eastern Expeditionary Army, and the White Horse Tomorrow City she built...... If she wasn't Zhu Xuanyue, then who was she?" He had a very strange feeling that all of a sudden there was only one person left in the world, one person, and no one else and everything.

"Hey, Mr. Xia, do you like this painting?" Mark Amin walked up to Xia Lei and looked at the oil painting on the wall with him.

Xia Lei came back to his senses at this time, and he paused before saying, "Well, the style is very mysterious, and I like mystical style things very much. ”

Mark Amin smiled, "Very unique insight. Did you know that this painting is my heirloom, and my family has been passing it down for almost 600 years? ”

"Almost six hundred years?" Xia Lei's heart moved, that is, the period when this oil painting was born was the Ming Dynasty.

"Well, yes. Mark Amin suddenly lowered his voice, "I'll tell you a secret, this painting was painted by Leonardo Di Pierrot da Vinci. This secret collection is rarely known in the world, and I just show it because of my birthday today, and I usually store it in a constant temperature room. ”

Xia Lei was dumbfounded. Such an oil painting was actually painted by Leonardo da Vinci, who is known as the first all-rounder of mankind, which is really unthinkable.

"Mr. Xia, you just need to know, don't tell others. Mark Amin smiled and said, "I don't want to bother me with the shoe auction house, and I don't want those jewelry thieves to visit my house." ”

Xia Lei said: "No, I will keep this secret. Thank you for sharing this secret with me. ”

As he spoke, Xia Lei's brain had automatically drawn a character relationship diagram, Princess Yongmei, Princess Yongmei 2, the mysterious old man, Princess Yongmei 3 in the painting, and the last himself, Xia Lei. Then there is a map of events, a Viking female pirate with the face of Princess Yongmei landed on the coast of Germany, fought the Gauls, and hundreds of years later, the king of Europe led his army to conquer Jerusalem, and later in the period, the princess of the Ming Dynasty led the Ming Dynasty soldiers into Afghanistan and established the White Horse City of Tomorrow. Hundreds of years later, he and Tang Yuyan came to the White Xiongnu tribe and discovered the White Horse Tomorrow City......

Although his brain has drawn a diagram of relationships, a person, one thing is still entangled and confused.

Mark Amin looked at Xia Lei, his eyes were a little special, and his tone was a little strange, "Mr. Xia, you are also a person with secrets, don't you want to share it with me?"

Xia Lei was slightly stunned, "What do you mean?"

Mark Amin was about to speak, but Sylvia walked over and looked very excited, "Mr. Xia, Miss Rihanna wants to know you." ”

Xia Lei looked at the window, and happened to meet Rihanna's gaze. Rihanna smiled at Charlei, her thick lips looking sexy.

"Mr. Mark Amin, excuse me. "Charlei was worried that he couldn't find an excuse to avoid Mark Amin, but Rihanna sent a ready-made one.

"Please. Mark Amin smiled.

Xia Lei followed Sylvia to Rihanna, but secretly said in his heart: "Why does this Mark Amin ask like this? ”

The smile on Mark Amin's face disappeared, but the corners of his mouth added a hint of intriguing.
