Chapter 31: The Murals
"Hey, there's a word on it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
After walking a hundred steps, turning a corner, on two load-bearing pillars that are almost one zhang high, two lines of text were written in Yanguo script.
Tianming was an orphan who was adopted by an old couple from an average family in the Qin State, and he did not learn the languages of other countries, so he could not recognize him. Shaoyu on the side was born in the Xiang clan of the nobles of the Chu State, and the seven languages were involved.
He looked at the words on the bronze pillar and read it beside Tianming.
"The wind is sluggish and the water is cold......"
Later, it was picked up by Yue'er.
ββ¦β¦ The strong man is gone, and he will never return. β
On the wall, where the bronze column sits, is a huge fresco:
By the river, a musician struck Zhu to bid farewell to a swordsman holding a deep rainbow. The swordsman and his retinue looked solemn, as if they were traveling with some kind of sacred mission, and had already put life and death behind; The musician's expression was calm, but there was a layer of sadness in the depths of his eyes, and the atmosphere was tragic. Before this mural, several people involuntarily quieted down.
Looking at the saber at the swordsman's waist on the mural, Shao Yu frowned slightly.
"That sword, it seems to be Yuanhong?"
"Who is this person, how can he have an uncle's sword?"
Tianming asked a little unhappily. In his opinion, there are only two people in this world who can use Yuanhong. One is his uncle, and the other is himself.
"The wind is dashing and the water is cold, he is Jing Ke."
Jing Ke's assassination of Qin happened ten years ago, which made Qin angry, and Prince Dan of Yan, who planned this matter, also died because of it, and he was very famous among the Seven Kingdoms. Shao Yu only thought for a while, and soon came up with an answer.
"Huh? Jing Ke? β
Tianming looked at the people on the mural and asked if he didn't understand.
"Jing Ke is the strongest assassin in the legend, and he is also the hero I admire the most. At that time, Yingzheng was very ambitious, and sent many troops to constantly attack neighboring countries, causing the people of the six countries to fall into years of war, their families were destroyed, and their wives were separated. β
Shao Yu's voice was low, because he was also one of the people who died in the family. When fleeing, even his Xiang clan sometimes encountered food crises, not to mention the ordinary people who had to leave their homes because of the Qin State.
During the rebellion of the Six Kingdoms against the Qin State, there were starvation everywhere along the way, and there were homeless people everywhere. There is a dish on the face, and his voice is sorrowful.
"In order to save the people of the Six Kingdoms, Dan, the prince of Yan State, decided to assassinate the tyrant Yingzheng. However, Xianyang Palace is heavily guarded, and there are layers of defense, looking at the world, there is only one person who can take on this matter. β
"Is this Jing Ke?"
Tianming looked at the people on the mural, with amazement and yearning. This is the only person in the world who can do this, and that's really amazing!
"Within five steps, no one in the world can escape from Jing Ke's predecessor's lore sword. So, Prince Dan and Jing Ke's predecessors made a shocking plan. Using the head of Fan Yuzhi, the general of the Chu State that Ying Zheng wanted most, and the map of the place where the governor of the Yan State was over, Jing Ke's predecessor pretended to be the envoy of the Yan State and went to Xianyang Palace. β
"Only in this way can we get through the layers of defenses and get close to that tyrant."
Saying this, Shao Yu suddenly noticed that Tianming's expression didn't seem to be right, and came over and patted him on the shoulder with concern.
"Hey, are you alright?"
"But, isn't that guy Yingzheng still alive now?"
Tianming turned his head to look at Shao Yu, with some sadness in his eyes.
"It is said that at that time above the main hall, Jing Ke's predecessor had indeed issued his lore sword. However, why Yingzheng did not die, no one knows the reason. β
Shao Yu's tone was filled with doubt and regret. If Jing Ke's predecessors had succeeded at that time, then now it would not be the situation where the Qin State dominated the world.
"Oh, that's right."
Tianming lowered his head, feeling the strange sorrow in his heart, and his eyes were a little sour. Because of Shaoyu's explanation, Yue'er, who remembered her parents, also had the same look.
Then, a warm big hand fell from the sky and covered Yue'er and Tianming's heads.
"Alright, okay, don't delay any longer, let's hurry up and move on to the next agency. When I come out of the forbidden land of the Mo family, I will tell you these things. β
Looking at the two children who had a rough background, but were destined to stand at the center of the world, Luo Xing felt that it was better to let them grow up as soon as possible.
"Twelve years old isn't a big deal, but you should know something."
β¦β¦
Although he was quite curious about Luo Xing's words, it was almost like a cat's paw was scratching, but no matter what Tianming said, Luo Xing just smiled and shook his head, saying that only when they left the Mo family's forbidden land would he tell them those things that they didn't let them know about in the first place.
The four of them continued to move forward, and beside them were murals of Mo disciples studying mechanical techniques. Suddenly, a mighty and terrifying dragon roar came from the bottom of the Mo family's forbidden land. With the dragon's roar, the frantic wind instantly filled the entire passage, and the flames on the torches on both sides kept beating, trying to resist the fierce wind.
After the dragon roared, the three children stood in place, looking back at Luo Xing, not daring to continue moving forward for a while. Seeing this, he smiled lightly and waved his hand.
"Don't be afraid, this is not the voice of some monster, but the green dragon, one of the Mo family's strongest tricks. Usually hidden in the forbidden land of the Mo family, it will only be used when the organ city is in the most critical situation. β
With that, Luo Xing took a step forward, stood on the countless squares of the mechanism, and pointed downward.
"Here is a hollow mechanism, and below is a treasure that has witnessed the grievances between the Mo family and the Yin and Yang family, the Phantom Sound Treasure Box."
"The Phantom Sound Box can play countless pieces of music, which are both real and real, ever-changing, and have a terrifying and dangerous force. If someone who is destined to hear it, it can improve its skills when cultivating, while if someone who is not destined to hear it, they may fall into a delusion or even go crazy. β
As soon as Luo Xing finished his introduction, this piece of machinery collapsed. In the dawn, Shao Yu and the exclamations of the fish, Luo Xing's figure was like a leaf, fluttering to the ground.
Of course, it is impossible for someone to come in and clean the forbidden land of the Mo family every day, so a lot of dust has accumulated in this institution. Luo Xing frowned, flicked his sleeves, and an internal qi turned into a breeze, blowing all the dust aside.
In the center of the chamber, the Phantom Treasure Box was quietly placed there. At the same time, from the circular holes in all directions, layers of serrated rings appeared that were stacked like pagodas and began to rotate continuously.
According to the zodiac star map overhead, the rhythm of the five elements, Luo Xing, who knew this mechanism well, turned the fourth floor of the treasure box, turned to the seventh window of the pavilion, and it only took more than a minute to unlock it.
As a result, the surrounding mechanisms stopped, the sawtooth retracted, and the round platform rose. The Phantom Sound Treasure Box was also freed from the shackles of the mechanism and handed over to Yue'er by Luo Xing.
"This thing is related to you, no matter who you don't give."
Yue'er, who took the phantom sound treasure box, was puzzled, but Luo Xing didn't explain to her, and continued to move forward with the team.
