Liu Xiaohua looked at Cheng Zhengzhi's finger, and it turned out that he was talking about a bead hanging around the neck of the statue.

Liu Xiaohua said disapprerovingly: "Master said, this kind of thing is a talisman, it is very ordinary. ”

"Really? Cheng Zhengzhi scratched his head.

Liu Xiaohua returned to the front of the painting.

She felt that the matter of the Golden City must have started from this courtyard built like a temple, and perhaps the most critical point was in these paintings. As long as you understand the meaning of these paintings, it must be of great help to solve the puzzle of the Golden City.

So a group of people gathered in front of the paintings, staring at the paintings, hoping to see the flowers from them.

Zhou Qing pondered for a long time and said, "You say, will this painting be the first person to paint it?" ”

"What first?" He Wen'er asked.

"At that time, there was no Golden City, only this temple. When the group saw the temple and were wounded in a fight with the enemy, they went to the temple to rest. As a result, they took the gold with greed, and they were wounded, so they would not take it and leave, but would have spent the night here. So I was immediately trapped here. ”

"Since they're all trapped here, what about the others? The third one is alone. ”

"They couldn't leave the temple and they had nothing to eat. How do you think the last one survived? ”

Linglong and He Wen'er retched when they heard it. Thinking about the place I was in, it was once a purgatory on earth, and I felt a chill.

Zhou Qing's face remained as usual, and he continued: "The last person to survive took out all the gold and begged the person who was enshrined to spare him. In the end, he failed to do so, and finally guarded the gold and starved to death here. Before he died, he painted these paintings. The original intention was to warn future generations. After his death, no matter how many people discovered this place by accident, they were only attached to wealth, and no one cared about the paintings on the wall. That's why the Golden City has gradually developed and expanded. Over the years, it has become the current scale.

"Yo, it's pretty good at making it up. Then you say, what the hell is going on in this temple? Cheng Zhengzhi asked: "This temple can't come out of thin air, right?" ”

Zhou Qing said: "As for this temple, I have the same idea as my little uncle. ”

Cheng Zhengzhi was shocked: "She didn't say anything, you can be like her?" Are you a worm in her stomach? ”

Zhou Qing glanced at him and said, "Uncle Xiao said that she thinks this place is not called a tomb. That's what I thought, too. ”

"But isn't that bowl written on it?" He Wen'er asked.

"This is the Companion Tomb, but this place is not really called the Companion Tomb." Liu Xiaohua paused and thought about what to say. Then he said, "You say, the procession we saw at night doesn't look like a funeral procession?" ”

"That's not like, it's just that!" Cheng Zhengzhi complained.

"Although I don't know which dynasty they are wearing, no matter which dynasty they are wearing, it shows that the deceased has a very high status. People with high status will not be taken lightly when things are behind them. The large mausoleum is like our house, and there must be a room for the master and other rooms. This accompanying tomb may be the 'other rooms' that distinguish it from the main tomb. I'm not sure, but it's a big possibility. ”

Everyone pondered for a while, and Linglong asked Liu Xiaohua: "Then why is there no name on the gold utensils that accompany the funeral?" She said: "If the future affairs are so big, there are hundreds of officials traveling, and the generals will open the way, there will only be the Holy King, the Holy Emperor, the Holy Emperor and the like." The royal family's funeral things will not be ready-made. It's all ready-made. This kind of thing will not only write which mausoleum it is attached to, but also have a payment and engrave the name of the deceased. Why doesn't this have a name? "She seemed familiar with this kind of thing.

Cheng Zhengzhi hurriedly said: "I know this!" I know this! ”

"You know again......" Linglong looked at his expression, which was really quite complicated. She thought that she could rely on this prince to turn over, but she didn't expect it to be such a ......... of people.

Cheng Zhengzhi said proudly: "You say, under what circumstances do you not want others to know that this thing is yours." ”

He Wen'er was puzzled and said, "What if I stole it?" ”

"Phew!" Cheng Zhengzhi said: "It is said that his status is not ordinary." Can you steal? ”

"Then you say, what's the situation?"

Cheng Zhengzhi snorted and said to Liu Xiaohua: "He is afraid that others will know that it is his." He couldn't see anyone. ”

He Wen'er muttered: "An unsightly, long, long dead, very statusful person? Who could this be? ”

Linglong also pondered.

As long as you figure out who this person is, you will be one step closer to unlocking the spell.

But the people present did not have a clue.

Zhou Qing saw that Liu Xiaohua had been standing in front of the mural, and went over to ask, "What are you thinking?" "He is very curious about this little uncle now.

Liu Xiaohua came back to her senses and said, "I think it's a bit far-fetched to explain this avoidance of painting with your inference. If so many things really happened, he wanted to warn future generations, and he should also draw the process of killing and cannibalizing after they were trapped. Wouldn't that be more effective? Why did he omit the most important thing? It's not that there is no place to draw. ”

Zhou Qing couldn't help but ponder.

"I think that the fact that he only painted so much shows that what he wants to express is all on it."

Zhou Qing said: "But this doesn't make sense. These paintings are not connected at all. ”

The first is a fight with people and the second is a group of people standing in front of the temple. The two are still coherent.

The third is a man kneeling in front of the statue with a pile of gold in front of him, and the fourth is a dead man kneeling in front of the statue with a pile of gold in front of him. It's also coherent.

But the first two and the last two are too jumpy.

Liu Xiaohua couldn't understand what this was expressing. Is there anything you can write about? Why do you use paintings?

Then she froze suddenly.

Zhou Qing noticed her strangeness and asked, "What do you think of?" ”

"Wait!" She felt that some thoughts were spinning in her mind, but she couldn't hold on.

At this time, suddenly, He Wen'er screamed.

Liu Xiaohua and a few people hurriedly ran over, and saw He Wen'er standing behind the statue with his eyes closed, punching and kicking the statue. Fighting wildly, screaming at the same time.

But everyone looked around and saw that there was nothing in front of her.

Linglong stepped forward and gave her a look, "You're crazy!" ”

When He Wen'er saw that a companion was coming, he became bolder, opened his eyes, pointed to the front and said urgently, "There are ghosts!" Then he remembered that he was now a cultivated person, and hurriedly summoned his spirit.

Liu Xiaohua looked in the direction she was pointing, and suddenly saw a human face on the back of the statue's head, and she was so frightened that she almost screamed.

When I saw it clearly, I realized that this statue was two-sided.

The front is carved with a young girl, and the back is carved with a young man. It's just that the light here is dim, and suddenly I see a human face in the place where it should be the back of my head, and I can't help but be startled.

When they saw it clearly, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Cheng Zhengzhi pointed at He Wen'er and snorted, laughing.

He Wen'er said loudly: "Who would know that there are two sides!" ”

Linglong looked up at the young man, and suddenly said, "I know whose tomb is here." "The eyes were shining, and I was unusually excited.

Liu Xiaohua was surprised: "Who is it?" ”

"It's the former Pilgrim Emperor!" Linglong said excitedly, "It's the young emperor, the young emperor's accompanying tomb!" Do you know who this woman is!! ”

"Your relatives?" Cheng Zhengzhi was stunned.

Linglong glared at him hard: "You relative! ”

Turning his head to Liu Xiaohua, he said, "I heard my sister say it before. The mistake of the young emperor in his life is that he is an idiot. said that it was because of a woman that he ruined the good country and made the position of the Holy Emperor change hands. After his death, he still has a will, to cast him and the woman into a double wall, which means that the two people will not be separated in the future, and they will continue to be the first edge after death. But the previous dynasty was destroyed because of that woman, how could the bereaved ministers be willing? I thought that woman was not worthy of being worshiped with the young emperor. But he couldn't help but do it, so he had an idea and cast the woman as if she was standing with his back to him. So the two men were still one wall, and the courtiers came to worship, and they did not need to see the woman's face. He exclaimed, "I didn't expect this to be true!" ”

"But why doesn't this woman have a face? Didn't finish carving? He Wen'er asked.

"You can't sculpt her face." Linglong's voice was urgent and fast, "Do you know who this woman is?" It was the Holy Queen and his brother-in-law. Therefore, the relict did not carve a statue, for fear of damaging his reputation. Got it? She is also the sixth uncle, Liu Gillian! The one who later changed his surname to Lin. Shizun's sixth apprentice. ”

turned his head to Cheng Zhengzhi and said, "It's your mother!" ”

"It's your aunt!" Cheng Zhengzhi immediately fought back. After speaking, I remembered that I could really be regarded as my own mother, and said disgustedly, "I have nothing to do with her." I was born to my mother. Nothing to do with her. ”

Liu Xiaohua walked around to the other side of the statue and looked at the faceless lady.

She held a sword in her hand, pointed to the ground, and stuck it in the head of a child. It seems that the remnants did not hate her in general, so they made her so cruel.

But how could it be her again?

Liu Xiaohua has an indescribable hatred for this person. I felt as if I could hear about this person wherever I went. There is an illusion of living under its shadow. The feeling took her breathless. I just want to smash the other person to a pulp.

Cheng Zhengzhi muttered: "She's quite capable." Turn the world upside down. Not to mention that after becoming a saint, it has something to do with my father, and I heard that even our teacher ......."

When he said this, Liu Xiaohua looked back at him sharply, staring at him and swallowing back the next words.

Linglong said: "When the first emperor didn't know his own life, he met with the holy queen when he was a ruffian, and the two of them went on the road of Mingzhi together, and worshiped the sect respectively. The first emperor was a teacher of the Moon Palace and was a disciple of Jinghongjun. ”

Chongyue Palace.

Liu Xiaohua's heart thumped. It's her foreign home.

She didn't expect that the first emperor would be a teacher of the Moon Palace.

And she remembered this Jinghongjun, she had heard the fifth senior brother say it. He practiced swordsmanship, and lost to the thirteen princes of Qingming Sect in the competition, but later ascended to immortality.

Liu Xiaohua asked: "Shouldn't the people of the royal family be Guozong's?" Why is the first emperor a disciple of Chongyue Palace? ”

Linglong said: "You don't know this. The first emperor was born outside the palace. Earlier, he did not know his identity. My sister said that because his life experience was hidden back then, he would change the dynasty after replacing the young emperor. Even the country name has been set up with a new one. However, some people say that he is not royal blood at all. That's why the country name was changed. This kind of thing is no longer clear. She glanced at Cheng Zhengzhi proudly, "Are you the son of the first emperor?" I don't even know that! ”

Cheng Zhengzhi said lazily: "Who called me sick!" ”

Linglong turned to Liu Xiaohua and said, "In short, this person is the Young Emperor, and there is nothing wrong with it. This is part of the Imperial Tomb. ”

"Aren't we rich, then?" Cheng Zhengzhi thought of something, and suddenly clapped his hands, "If you find the emperor's mausoleum, won't you find the treasury of the previous dynasty?" ”

"But you also have to spend this money." Zhou Qing said.

Cheng Zhengzhi froze for a moment, his smile was gone, and he sighed for a long time.

Linglong stood in front of the double-faced statue and looked at Liu Ajiao with a very admiring expression.

Cheng Zhengzhi shuddered and asked, "What are you doing?" It's disgusting for you to look at a woman like this, I get goosebumps! ”

Linglong said, "Don't you think she's a great woman? The young emperor is her minister under her skirt, the first emperor is her husband, and our fairy-like master has always remembered her. For her, so many people in the Liu family were killed. The best men at the bottom, they all like her. How can a woman do that......"

Liu Xiaohua couldn't help but say coldly, "She hurt the master, the young emperor, her own people died in vain, and the Lin family was depressed." The sacrifice of so many people has only earned her a back position at her feet, and I don't know if she can sleep at night. It's funny to think about it, it's such a person, and he can even become an immortal?! I really don't understand why the so-called Heavenly Way is not just and strict, and it doesn't distinguish between right and wrong. She really didn't understand what was going on in this world and what was going on in the Heavenly Dao.

Cheng Zhengzhi saw that she was angry, and hurriedly smiled and went up and said, "Tsk." Be happy. Don't look at her bright appearance, in fact, life is hard. The return of the Heavenly Dao Wheel should not be happy. Hearing that she is not having a good time, do you feel more comfortable? ”

"And you know she's having a bad time?" Linglong asked dissatisfied. Since she found out that the Seven Princes were really bad at brains, she was not so polite to the Seven Princes.

"How is she doing? It's amazing to be a saint, but my dad ...... Does my dad really like her? If you really like her, why didn't you have a child with her, but with other concubines. Do you know how many brothers I have? Cheng Zhengzhi said coldly: "In order to kill these brothers, the new emperor cut all the blades. ”

Linglong listened, hesitated, and just said, "Emperor." It was also a last resort. Asked He Wen'er: "Did you say yes?" ”

He Wen'er said: "I don't know, I'm hungry. ”

Linglong squinted at her unhappily. He Wen'er said unhappily: "I'm really hungry." ”

Liu Xiaohua said, "Okay." Don't talk about that. Hurry up and find out if there are any formations here. Since the entire Golden City is centered on this place, the eye that can be broken must be here. As long as the formation is removed, the cause and effect between gold and people can be broken. ”

Before, Liu Xiaohua read the handwritten notes about the formation on the codex in Liu Yourong's study. It is very mysteriously written and long-winded. Various gossip algorithms are sexagenary.

But Liu Xiaohua thinks that to sum it up, the so-called formation is to borrow the power of the spirit to change the rules of physics and the world within a certain range.

For example, the little three talents written in the codex are trapped in the immortal array.

It seems that just a stone or something else can produce a lot of power, trapping the people inside and preventing them from getting out. It's like magic.

If you want to use the modern knowledge in Liu Xiaohua's mind to understand the codex, it is just to change the rules of physics on a small scale.

In the normal world, to move forward is to move forward.

But in this circle, the cause and effect change, the rules change, you take a step forward, and the next second you stand may be behind you, or to the right, to the left. So I can't get out no matter how I go.

And no matter how powerful the formation is, there is also a living door, which is like every door has a key.

If you don't leave the key, how can the people who set up the formation come out by themselves?

It's just that the key may be hidden under the pot or on the door frame. Or anywhere. It is relatively difficult for people who don't know to find it.

Since it has been determined that the Golden City is caused by this temple, then as long as the key is found, it will be solved. Liu Xiaohua thought so at this time.

Cheng Zhengzhi suddenly laughed when he saw Liu Xiaohua standing in front of the mural for a long time, and asked her, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Liu Xiaohua pointed to the painting on the wall and said, "I know what that means." In the beginning, we all thought wrong. ”
