Chapter 540: Colorful Stone (I)
This burial chamber is not very large, and everyone searched everywhere but could not find anything. The only place I haven't found now is the stone platform where Zuo Ci sits. Everyone gathered around, and Dazhe naturally used the most primitive method, that is, to move hard, but he and Yun Xian couldn't move the stone platform even a bit.
"What the hell, is this thing welded to the ground with electric welding." Dazhe muttered.
"It seems that this is another problem, this Zuo Ci is really a person who can give people problems." Yun Ximing said.
"If there is a mechanism, there must be some clues, let's find out." Sister Wang Na is full of energy, I don't know why I don't have any motivation, and even hope that they won't find it so quickly, it seems that if they find that treasure, things will come to an end, our mission will be over, and I will lose the reason to be with them. However, the good news came.
"Yin Yin, I found it, you would never have imagined it, this Zuo Ci is really too clever, and it is gravity, after we put the bones of the two of them on the platform, the mechanism was activated, and there is a dark grid underneath." Yun Ximing said.
Sure enough, after putting the bones of Zuo Ci and Yalan on the platform, the platform was moved to the side, revealing a dark compartment underneath. Inside the compartment was a box, without a lid, with a red silk handkerchief underneath. There must have been something unusual about that silk handkerchief, otherwise it wouldn't have lasted so long without any decay. On the red handkerchief rests a piece of... A... Forehead... How to say it. This should be a rock.
"It's taken so long, Yin Yin, is this what we're looking for? Is it such a broken stone? "Dazhe asked me, I was also a little stunned, is this the so-called artifact? The treasures left behind by the Protoss? No kidding.
I looked at the rock, it was flat, it looked a little bit like shale, a bit like a shell. It is pentagonal, but it is extremely irregular, when I was a child, my grandmother liked to make clothes by herself, and at that time, when cutting clothes, I had to use a stone slab, and this stone looked very similar to that thing.
"Sister Yin Yin, look, there are words here." Yun Ning pointed to the box and said, sure enough, there was a line of small characters engraved on the box.
"Zuo Ci is half an immortal, half an immortal is not an immortal, the immortal shows the way, and the road leads to the right path." Yun Ximing read out the words on it.
"What does this mean? This Zuo Ci should not have suddenly started to repent when he was dying, he is not an immortal, and he should not have found out until he died. Yun Xian said.
Zuo Ci is also a mortal, his lover died tragically, and he also fantasized about using his immortal-like means to save his lover. Or maybe he also thought about making himself immortal and accompanying this ancient tomb, but apparently he didn't succeed. The world says that Zuo Ci is a half-immortal, but a half-immortal is not an immortal after all, he can save others, but he can't save himself, I may be able to understand his feelings. I said.
"Is it possible that the ancestor of your Kui clan has already found that magic weapon and transferred it, this is actually just a pretense?" Min Lan asked.
"One of the four boxes is empty, which means that the thing has not been brought out, according to what Xiao Jiang told me before, my aunt already knows this place, but she doesn't know what is hidden in this Zuo Ci ancient tomb, the reason why she let Xiao Jiang lure me to different places everywhere is because she doesn't want to risk herself. So I boldly assumed, is it possible, my aunt didn't know what it was at all, she just knew that there were four agarwood boxes, and the first three she clearly knew that they contained different parts of a bronze key, but she didn't know the fourth. Therefore, it should be like this, Kui Bibi has four agarwood boxes, and these four boxes are sealed with heavy blood sacrifices, the first three are indeed indeed something, and the fourth is indeed an empty box. Because Kui Bibi hasn't put things in yet. Previously, she was forced to hide these things in the tombs of different people in different eras for some reason, and transformed the tombs according to her own needs. However, he didn't come here to hide the box here, he came here to get something, and that thing could be this stone, of course that's just my guess. I said.
"That's really speculation, it's true, this stone doesn't look like a treasure at all." Yun Xian said.
"I think whether it's a treasure or not, let's take it first, after all, this thing isn't here for no reason." Yun Ximing said.
"That's right, let's take it first." I said as I reached out and picked up the stone, but when my hand touched the stone, something suddenly felt wrong, and then the scene around me changed.
All my friends around me were gone, although I was still in the tomb, but all the lights were on, the tomb was brightly lit, I felt someone looking at me, and when I looked up, I was met with a pair of brown eyes, I was startled, and I couldn't help but take a step back.
"Don't be afraid, descendant of the Protoss, I've been waiting for you here for a long time." The person in front of him said.
I took a closer look at the man in front of me, he was dressed in clothes of some unknown dynasty, he looked very fat, his legs were cross-legged on the stone platform, and there was another person in his arms, it was a little girl who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old.
"You're... Zuo Ci? I asked.
"It's really slow, descendants of the Protoss, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Zuo Ci said.
"But you're not the same as I know you." I say. The Zuo Ci in front of me can really be described as a jade tree in the wind, chic and handsome, about less than thirty years old, if it weren't for his voice, so that I could hear a little old, I would really think he was a young man.
"Hey, the descendants of the Protoss have become the same as mortals in this generation? Is the world's vision so important, and the appearance so important? It's just a pair of skins. Zuo Ci said.
"You're holding Arlan in your arms?" I asked.
"Yes, the most loved one in this life." Zuo Ci himself emphasized it again.
"But I still don't understand why you are different from what is written on the epitaph." I asked.
"Do you know the difference between immortals and mortals?" Zuo Ci suddenly asked.
"This..."I have always only known that immortals are higher than mortals, but now suddenly let me say the difference between the two, I really can't say, can I know magic, mortals also know, immortality does not come, but my ancestors are still immortals passed away, I was speechless for a while, I can't answer.
"Can't tell? Let me tell you. Zuo Ci said, "Mortals are all vulgar people, and immortals are all enlightened people." Let's just talk about the appearance you just said, I was born like this, but I don't know how much trouble this kind of skin has caused me, so I decided with Arlan to change my face. As for my people and his people, they are nothing but fools, and the stupidest thing about fools is that they are easily shaken. There is a man who says that a deer is actually a horse, and you won't believe it, but what about a hundred, a thousand, will you be shaken? So in the eyes of future generations, we have become the same ugly appearance all our lives, what does it matter, it's just skin, you say. Zuo Ci said.
"The seniors have a great understanding, and they are indeed thorough." I said, "But I still don't understand, according to what you say, how can you and Aran be killed by mortals when they are both masters of magic?" ”
"But how can a person who thinks he is an immortal be as selfish as a mortal, Yalan is just a good thought for a while, but she has harmed herself, and when I find out, she is already lacking in skills." Zuo Ci said, "My epitaph is just written for mortals, most of the words cannot be regarded as detailed, and the reasons for it are just old things thousands of years ago, which have nothing to do with you, time is running out, you don't ask." ”
Zuo Ci said this, obviously he didn't want to continue the topic, so I changed my words with other interest.
"What's the matter with the half-immortals? You're talking to me now, so what the hell are you, are you..."I don't know how to say that dead word, I always feel like it's very rude.
"Death is just a new beginning, just like you will sleep at the end of the day, yes, but this day of your life is extremely long, so that you think that death is a terrible thing, but in fact, will you be afraid to sleep? Therefore, I am talking to you now, which means that I exist, and I may not be the Zuo Ci of that ancient time, but I have not disappeared, and I exist in this world. Zuo Ci smiled and said, "As for the matter of half-immortals, I can only say that there is a give-and-take, I am reluctant to Yalan, even if it is just such a stay, I am willing, this is a love robbery, so it is natural that I can't become an immortal." Since ancient times, only envy mandarin ducks and not immortals, I and Yalan are like this, and the rest of our wishes are enough. ”
"There is another question, senior, what is this stone? I don't look at it in any way, is that what we're looking for? I asked.
"If this thing is not a treasure, how can it be hidden by me in the mechanism, if this thing is not a treasure, how can it bring you here to meet me? Modern people, what a lonely and unheard-of pitiful. ”
"After all, what is this thing?"
"Nuwa was to save the world, and there was a saying that there was a multicolored stone left to make up the sky, and it was this piece in your hand."
"You mean, this is, the multicolored stone!" (To be continued.) )
