Cheng Jiao walked to the undamaged stone carvings, and while stroking the stone carvings with her hands, she explained to herself: "Do you think this stone carving is very smooth?"

"What's so strange about that?" said Chubby, "These stone carvings must have been polished after the carving was completed."

Cheng Jiao didn't answer Xiaopang's words directly, but asked, "I don't know if you have ever been to the Baiyun Temple in Beijing?"

"Of course I've been", Xiao Fat said: "It is said that the stone monkey on the gate of Baiyun Temple is very spiritual, I go to touch it every year, I want to make myself thinner, but his mother doesn't work at all, the more I touch it, the fatter I get, hehe"

"How did you feel when you touched that stone monkey?" asked Cheng Jiao. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Hands are cold", Chubby joked: "Every time I go to the New Year, in the cold winter, it is cold and cold to the touch, and I don't feel anything else"

I said in my heart that Xiaopang is always not serious, so I replied to Cheng Jiao on the side: "That stone monkey has been touched by many people for many years, and it feels very smooth and round."

"That's right", Cheng Jiao said: "The stone carvings in this tomb feel the same as the stone monkeys of Baiyun Temple, there is a smooth and rounded feeling, this smoothness can not be achieved by polishing, it must be touched countless times to have such an effect, the surface of the stone carving will form a natural oil film, just like many people play jade and pecans, it will become natural smooth after a long time, and polishing can not achieve this effect." ”

"Are you saying that the stone carvings in this tomb have been touched by people all year round?" I was surprised, "This is impossible, this is a tomb, how can someone often come here to touch these stone carvings?

Xiaopang smiled on the side: "Probably the same as the stone monkey in Baiyun Temple to make a wish, right? But who is so interesting to go to the tomb to make a wish, could it be Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu?"

Cheng Jiao said: "Looking at the appearance of these stone carvings, it is true that this smoothness can only be achieved after perennial caressing, but as for who wants to do this for what purpose, I can't guess." In addition, it is also a little strange to see the appearance of this stone sculpture being destroyed, Tang Ying also said just now, look at the traces, these stone carvings were destroyed in a hurry, according to common sense, the person who destroyed the stone carvings should start to destroy the stone carvings in front of them after entering the tomb in a hurry", Cheng Jiao said while demonstrating: "And this person destroyed the stone carvings in the back first, and the previous ones did not have time to destroy, which can only explain one point." ”

"What does it mean?" I asked.

"The content of the stone carvings in the back is more important than the ones in front," Cheng Jiao said.

"Makes sense," I said, "but there is also a possibility that the person who destroyed the stone carvings deliberately left the previous stone carvings"

Cheng Jiao lowered her head and thought for a while: "Although this possibility is very small, it does exist, but if this is the case, what does the person who destroyed the stone carvings want to explain by leaving the previous stone carvings?"

At this time, Hu Qi also walked to the stone carving, carefully touched the remaining four stone carvings with his hand, touched them for a while and said: "The first two stone carvings should describe two stories in ancient times."

I was secretly amazed in my heart, we 'discerning people' could not guess the meaning of the stone carvings, Hu Qi could know what the story of the first two stone carvings was told by just touching his hands, it seems that this person is not only a stunt, but also erudite, I don't know how much hard work has been done.

Hu Qi said: "In the first stone carving, the old man riding a deer-like animal should be 'four non-elephants', this old man should be 'Jiang Ziya', and the strange man with the green-faced fangs in the air holding something in his hand is 'Zhao Gongming', and what he is holding in his hand should be a straw man." This first stone sculpture tells the story of the 'Passion of Jiang Ziya'. It is said that Jiang Ziya met Zhao Gongming, who was abusing when he was helping King Wu, this Zhao Gongming will have an evil technique called 'Soul Serving', that is, using a straw man with a person's name written on it, through this 'Soul Servant' can control people's souls, and almost took Jiang Ziya's life, fortunately, there is a strange person called 'Lu Press', who used a thaumaturgy called 'Nailhead Seven Arrows Book' to break the 'Soul Servant Technique', killed Zhao Gongming, and saved Jiang Ziya."

After listening to this story, my heart was shocked: "How does the 'Samurai Soul Technique' in this story feel very similar to the little Jade Buddha's ability to control the thinking and behavior of 'Guo Xiangdong'? But this kind of evil art is just made up in the story, and it cannot exist in reality."

Then I listened to Hu Qi preach: "The second stone sculpture should tell the story of 'pushing the back picture', in the picture, an old man pushes the back of another old man to leave, one of these two old men is 'Yuan Tiangang', and the other is 'Li Chunfeng', both of whom were strange men in the Tang Dynasty. It is said that Li and Yuan can pinch and calculate, and in their later years, they have entered the fairy world. One day, when the two of them had nothing to do, they sat back to back, pushing things from the past to the present. One person pushes the past, that is, the things that opened the world to the Tang Dynasty, and one person pushes the future, that is, what happened after the Tang Dynasty, pushes a thing, paints a secret image, and writes a few words of prophecy. After a few days like this, the Jade Emperor was afraid that the heavenly machine would leak too much, so he sent Chen Tuan Ancestor, that is, the old man under the pine tree on the picture with one foot forward and one foot backward to stop it. Chen Tuan said to Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng: "What major events in the world do you measure, first calculate whether I advance or retreat?" As he spoke, he stepped away and looked at the two masters. Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng suddenly woke up and drifted away. The secret image painted by the two is the famous "Push Back Picture", whose name is taken from the last image of the "Thousands of words, it is better to push the back to rest". The first 43 images in this "Tui Bei Tu" have been revealed by history, and their mystery and accuracy are incomprehensible, and the unrevealed 17 images and prophecies are still mysterious and unpredictable. ”

"I see, no wonder this stone carving is so smooth, it turns out that the stone carvings are all great immortals", Xiaopang said beside him: "Master Hu, what do the two stone carvings in the back mean?"

As soon as I heard it, I said: "What is this and what, Xiaopang, I have connected the stone carving with this story again, is it okay?" But I'd like to know what the last two stone carvings, especially the fourth, mean."

But to my disappointment, Hu Qi shook his head and said, "As for the last two, I can't understand them either."

Although I can't understand the meaning of the last two stone carvings, I have a vague feeling that there must be some intrinsic relationship between the "Samurai Samurai", "Nailhead Seven Arrows Book", "Tui Bei Tu", "Strange People and Animals", and "Strange Buddha Statues" described in the remaining four stone sculptures, and if I can find these relationships, I may be able to discover the truth about the Jade Buddha and all the strange things that preceded it. But what exactly is the relationship between them? It's hard to figure out.

Cheng Jiao took out a digital camera to take pictures of the remaining four stone sculptures, and picked up some stone sculpture fragments and said that they were going back to study. After that, we took Zhang Ziheng, who was still in a state of 'suspended animation', to leave this strange tomb that even Emperor Qianlong did not dare to touch.

After returning to the ground, Cheng Jiao contacted their boss, and we rested in place for a while, not for long, two Buick business vehicles appeared in front of us, and four "black coats" came down from them.

Cheng Jiao briefly explained a few words to the "black coat", and two of them stayed to clean up the "scene", that is, to bury the robbery hole. Xiaopang whispered to me: "My uncle's tomb robbery manual said that these 'first-class wholesalers' never leave anything to chance, and the robbery holes they deal with can't even be seen by the old police officers who are in charge of this area."

The other two black coats lifted Zhang Ziheng onto a business car, and Cheng Jiao, Tang Ying, and Hu Qi said goodbye to me and Xiaopang briefly and left in this business car. The two black coats that dealt with the 'scene' were quickly finished, and sure enough, they were done seamlessly without any horses, and after that, Chubby and I and the four black coats left here in another business van. Since my car was still parked in the Kunlun Hotel, the business car sent me to the Kunlun Hotel first, and then I said goodbye to Xiaopang, and the business car took Xiaopang back to Panjiayuan, I took the car, looked at the watch, it was almost five o'clock in the afternoon.

After all, it has been eight days since I agreed to Zhang Ziheng's participation in this operation in Yuquan Mountain, and in these eight days, not only have the previous doubts not been solved, but more mysteries have been added: What was Tang Ying injured in the air-conditioning ventilation duct of the Kunlun Hotel? How did I get to the tomb in the muddy corpse pool? Who sealed the secret passage under the coffin of the tomb? What was closed in the mysterious iron door in the basement of the dry rest house described by Xiaopang? Where did Wu Lan go? Why are there thousands of mud corpses in the underground lake of Yuquan Mountain? Who pulled the chains in the underground lake? Why did the third-ranked corpse in the tomb robbery manual suddenly disappear, and was it really eaten by the legendary nine-tailed fox? And the tomb passage and strange tomb that suddenly appeared, who built it? What is it for? How did Zhang Ziheng become in a state of 'suspended animation'? Was that strange stone sculpture really destroyed by Wu Lan? Who would often go to that tomb to touch those stone sculptures? What is the purpose? What do the stone carvings want to illustrate......? All these questions haunted me, and I felt that maybe just as the other 'Guo Xiangdong' in the diary said, I had to find the answer to the question, I had to put an end to all this, maybe this was the mission that 'Guo Xiangdong' had to complete.

Now it is early spring in Beijing, although it is getting dark, but it is almost dusk at five o'clock, I drove on Chaoyang Road, the sunset slanted on my face, and the old song came from the radio: " Looking back again, the clouds cut off the way back, looking back again, thorns are dense, there will be no more difficult old dreams tonight, the dreams that have been with you, who to tell in the future, and then look back, the back has gone away, look back, tears are hazy, leave your blessings, the cold night warms me, no matter how much pain and confusion I have to face tomorrow, I have asked again and again in the dark and dark, only to know that the plain and calm is the truest, and then look back suddenly like a dream, and then look back at my heart is still the same, only the endless long road with me ......"

I don't know why, but my eyes seemed to be moist.
