The famous Mountain of Light is actually a fake? Ai Xiaohai felt that this joke could be selected as the best joke of the year.

Well, assuming that this Koh-i-Noor is fake, then whether it is Queen Victoria, Queen Mary or Queen Elizabeth of the United Kingdom, they and the ministers and craftsmen around them are all blind and foolish, and they have not found out that the Koh-i-Noor is fake for so many years!

Not only did they not find it, but they also set this huge diamond in the crown, and then one day when someone finally found out that it was a fake, the entire British royal family became a joke?

Please, don't they all say that women are the best at deceiving people? But when you make up stories, can you also make up some technical content?

"Don't you believe it?" Delis actually asked.

"Why do you think I should believe it?" Ai Xiaohai asked rhetorically.

"yes, when I tell this story to someone, anyone thinks I'm crazy." Delith was not at all discouraged by the fact that her story was not believed: "Mr. Ai, can you listen patiently to me finish this story?" ”

Anyway, I can't understand the ones on TV, and it's good to listen to a very funny and funny story made up......

So Ai Xiaohai listened to a woman tell an unbelievable story......

……

When the Persian king Nadir conquered Delhi, the capital of India, and obtained the mountain of light, a treasure of the world, he was cursed with a terrible curse. Not only was his body tormented by edema, but he even blinded five of his sons. In the end, he was assassinated in his sleep.

His descendants also inherited his brutal personality, and the Persian royal family was caught in a fratricidal streak, with almost every monarch dying.

Of course, not all of them were his youngest son, Shakudai. After being blinded, Nadir escaped from the Persian royal palace and has since remained incognito, hiding from his father and later the Persian monarch.

Moreover, he believed that the root cause of all the troubles came from that great gem:

The Mountain of Light!

He later had three sons and three daughters, whom he told on his deathbed. Find the Mountain of Light no matter what. And destroy it to lift the curse of the House of Nadir. To this end, he gave his family a name to warn them not to forget his last wishes:

The Bright Family.

Generations have been trying, but how easy is it to take a jewel from the palace? Those legends come and go. There is no such thing as a master who treats the palace guards as if they were nothing. And. At that time, due to the constant civil strife of the Persian royal family. The Mountain of Light did not know when it fell outside the palace and was never found.

As a result, the descendants of the Guangming family found another way. Cast his eyes beyond Persia.

At that time, guns had been born, ancient swords were in decline, and the patriarch of the Bright Family keenly judged that hot weapons would become the masters of this era, and more advanced civilizations would take over the ancient civilization of Persia. He sent several of his children and grandchildren to several European powers at that time: Britain, France, Prussia, etc., as well as the Qing Dynasty, which was still very powerful at that time.

The Nadir family has a stubborn, even paranoid character in their blood, and they will not give up until they achieve the goals of their ancestors. So they silently kept their names incognito, silently integrated themselves with the local area, accepted the living customs and religious habits of their respective countries, and married the locals or married the locals.

Eventually, they turned themselves completely into locals.

After several generations of hard work, they have completely integrated into their respective countries, some have become wealthy businessmen, some have become well-known barristers, some have become powerful officials and military officers, and some of them have even participated in the American Revolutionary War and made great contributions to the independence of the United States.

And that's not all, even the drafting of the American Declaration of Independence had the descendants of the Bright Family......

Although they changed their names and changed their surnames to avoid the eyes of the world, they did not forget one thing in common: they had the blood of the Nadir family flowing in their bodies, they were members of the Light family, and they had to work hard for one purpose:

Recapture and destroy the Koh-i-Noor!

The conditions were ripe, and the people of the Bright Family held a secret meeting, and at this time they finally got the whereabouts of the Mountain of Light.

When the Persian capital city of Isfahan was in chaos, the nobleman Amasi Abedr tried to compete for the throne, but failed, and only grabbed a number of treasures and traveled east to Kandahar, where he became the monarch of Afghanistan. Among the treasures he snatched were the "Koh-i-Noor" and the Tamil Ruby. But after many twists and turns, the "Koh-i-Noor" came to the city of Lahore, India.

In the city of Lahore, the Indian prince who owns the "Koh-i-Noor" seems to have a premonition that the diamond might bring bad luck to him, so he fled to Punjab with it and presented it to the Sikh ruler Ranjit. Singh. Known as the "Lion of Lahore", Singh was so fond of the diamond that he often carried it on horseback so that he could enjoy its brilliance while riding.

Recently. After Singh's death, the Sikh War broke out in 1840 and the chaos left Punjab bloodied. At the outbreak of war, the sole heir to the Sikh throne, Duleep. Singh was only 9 years old and was placed in British custody. After the war, he became one of the many princely lords of India.

Duleep had more than 100 wives and concubines in his lifetime, but none of his children inherited the Koh-i-Noor diamond. This is because, before he became an adult, Duleep learned about the bloody history of the "Koh-i-Noor" and was afraid that the same fate would befall him. Therefore, he decided to follow the ancient scriptures and offer the diamond to a woman, Queen Victoria of England.

Under the careful planning and arrangement of Duleep and the British Governor-General in India, the diamond was handed over to a courier commissioned by the British East India Company, and after several twists and turns, it was finally delivered to Queen Victoria after six weeks......

……

At this point, Delis asked, "Mr. Ai, do you know why it took a full six weeks?" ”

Ai Xiaohai scratched his head: "Didn't you just say that the cargo ship carrying the Mountain of Light when you came in." Did you encounter cholera and a tsunami? Well, there were no planes at the time, and six weeks from India to London was not too long...... Add to that the effects of cholera and the tsunami, and I think this time is considered the best efforts of the crew. ”

"No, you're wrong, that's what everyone thinks." Delis smiled, "This is the blind spot of human beings, everyone thinks the same way as you. And I can tell you that the messenger's name is Jem. Robson. The cargo ship that flew with him was the Golden Hook Lucky. The cargo ship belonged to the East India Company and was captained by Harris. Charlton. And when the 'Golden Hook Lucky' hit the tsunami, there were several cargo ships nearby that also confirmed the occurrence of the tsunami......"

She clearly named several key people, as well as the name of the cargo ship. This made Ai Xiaohai know very clearly that there must be something strange in this.

Really. Delith then said, "Actually. Harris. Charlton wasn't originally called by that name......"

"People from the Nadir family?" Ai Xiaohai reacted immediately.

"Yes, the people of the Nadir family, to be precise, the people of the Bright Family." Delis nodded, "And it's not just him." Even the then British Viceroy in India, Edward. Toil. Kimond, Count Elenborough's most trusted assistant, was also a member of the House of Light, and he was involved in the plan to transport the Mountain of Light from beginning to end......"

Ai Xiaohai only smiled bitterly, how much power does this Bright Family have? How can they be everywhere?

"That was deliberately arranged by the Bright Family." Dai Lisi solved the doubts in Ai Xiaohai's heart: "This family knows very well that if you want to recover the Mountain of Light, you must work hard in Persia and India, and there are many people in these two countries, so it is not difficult for them to enter the elite class, with the power of the Light family." Upon learning that the Koh-i-Noor was about to be sent to England, the Koh-i-Noor quickly hatched a plan. They had to drop the diamond on the way to ......."

"It's okay to rob it openly or steal it directly." Ai Xiaohai muttered.

"No, that would cause the anger of the British." Delith shook her head: "At that time, Britain was known as the empire on which the sun never sets, once the diamond dedicated to the queen disappeared, it would inevitably cause their anger, and they would inevitably find it back at all costs, which would threaten the existence of the Bright Family......"

Ai Xiaohai understood.

At that time, the Guangming family was very powerful, and they had everything in power and wealth, but at the same time, it also became a burden for this secret family. Because they have so many things involved.

Delis slowly continued to tell the story.

The Light Family used several people they had been preparing for a long time, all of whom had unparalleled talent in the arts, and some of them had even been praised by those within the Light Family as being created by God alone.

These people are unknown to no one else, they are the "private wealth" that has been purchased by the Bright Family from a very young age, and when some of them die of old age or illness, they will soon be replaced by young people with the same talent as them.

And their work is very simple and very boring, day after day to forge all kinds of gemstones, must be forged seamlessly. The gems they forged will be destroyed once they are verified to be qualified. Leave no trace in this world.

Obviously, these people are here for the sake of the Mountain of Light.

It's a pity that no one has ever seen what the real Mountain of Light looks like...... It's not exactly the same with pictures alone......

Now, when the opportunity came, these craftsmen were quickly sent to Punjab, India, and then to Kimond and Harris. Charlton arranged for him to board the Golden Hook Lucky as a crew member.

Jem, the messenger of the Indian Governor-General, had been bribed by threats and heavy sums of money as soon as he got aboard, and he handed over the mountain of light, which he had in his personal collection......

Despite the abundance of skilled craftsmen and the availability of all the materials and equipment, time is of the essence when it comes to forging a mountain of light. Cholera and the tsunami helped them a lot, and they had a few weeks to study and create another mountain of light......

……

"Finally the Koh-i-Noor was built?" Ai Xiaohai asked suspiciously.

In his opinion, it is necessary to create such a perfect and famous diamond. And to be exactly the same, it's definitely not an easy thing to do.

"It's made." Delisy replied in the affirmative: "You haven't met those craftsmen, they are not just craftsmen, they are simply a bunch of masters." Their hands are incomparable, and from the moment they were sent to a secret location, they learned not only how to forge gemstones, but also literature, history, and art. Some of them can play a symphony of fate that even a real pianist would be ashamed of, and some can paint a piece of Leonardo da Vinci that is enough to disturb the reality. And all this is just a preparation for imitating the Mountain of Light in the future. They practiced making gem fakes, even when they were sent to London's most famous gem technicians. It will also be considered true. ”

Ai Xiaohai understands this, it seems that the Bright Family has really invested a lot of money for this Mountain of Light.

After the group of craftsmen, or masters of the arts, came to the "Golden Hook Lucky", they worked day and night. Four and a half weeks later. One of the greatest fakes of all time was born:

The second "Mountain of Light"!

Another "Mountain of Light" that would never have happened!

In Delith's statement. At that time, the group of craftsmen carefully compared this fake with the real thing in all aspects, and even if all the gem experts in the world were called, they would never be able to tell that it was a fake.

Their task was accomplished. Or rather, their life's mission for generations has been accomplished.

So, all of them were killed.

Hearing this, Ai Xiaohai shuddered. He knew that these people were killed to ensure that the secret of the fake "Mountain of Light" would not be leaked, but the Bright Family's attack was too vicious, and they actually killed so many masters in one go?

These craftsmen can be called masters according to Delis, and they will achieve great success in any field. But their life's mission is only to complete a fake, and their names are no longer even known.

What is this? From this point of view, this Bright Family is not a good thing.

"Don't blame them, the stakes are too great." Delis sighed softly, "I know you blame them, but if you were in their situation at the time, you would have made the same choice. Let's continue the story. The fake was made and then sent to Queen Victoria, and the diamond was so beautiful, so flawless. The queen even set it in her own crown...... But the British would never have dreamed that this was just a fake mountain of light......"

"Whoever owns it owns the whole world; Whoever owns it will have to suffer the calamities it brings. Only God or a woman who has it will not suffer any punishment. ”

This is a famous curse about the Koh-i-Noor, and Queen Victoria, and later the Queen of England, did not suffer any of the terrible calamities that had previously befallen the Koh-Noor, and the quivering magic of the Koh-No-Light disappeared.

Everyone thought that the curse had been fulfilled, and that a woman had broken it. But in fact, this mountain of light is fake at all, what curse can a fake diamond have?

"Jem has fulfilled his mission as a messenger, and the Bright Family has paid him enough to make him a monopoly second to none."

When Ai Xiaohai heard this, he suddenly laughed: "I think, this Jem. Mr. Robson probably won't end well in the end, right? ”

Quite simply, the Bright Family must keep a secret, and Jem. Robson was the only one other than the family members who knew about this shocking secret. I'm afraid his fate will not be better than those craftsmen.

Delith didn't deny it: "Yes, a year later, Jem. While walking outside his estate, Robson was robbed by two hooligans, who resisted and were killed by the two hooligans. At that time, the two hooligans were also caught and hanged in the end. ”

Ai Xiaohai smiled sarcastically.

yes, what an interesting coincidence.

Many people have died, and no one in this world except the people of the Light family knows that the Mountain of Light in Her Majesty's crown is actually just a fake secret.

Ai Xiaohai was still a little curious: "I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money to create such a fake Mountain of Light, right?" ”

Dai Lisi smiled bitterly: "The money you can't imagine at all, not to mention the preparation of the Bright Family before, just the diamonds and various equipment and materials consumed on the 'Golden Hook Lucky' are enough to buy two Mountains of Light of the same value." ”

These guys are really well fed.

Just for the will of an old madman and an old blind man, did it cost so much manpower and material resources? The best thing to say is persistence, and the bad thing is to be a bunch of paranoia. No, there must be some secrets in this that I don't know.

"Since that Mountain of Light has fallen into the hands of the Bright Family, what are you still looking for me for?" Ai Xiaohai thought of this question suddenly: "Also, I think it's a very simple guess, you are also a member of the Bright Family, right?" ”

"Yes, I'm also a member of the Light Family, and my original name should have been Delis. Nadir. Delis answered the second question first, and then said slowly, "Because this mountain of light did not fall into our hands, it disappeared with Harris, the captain of the 'Golden Hook Lucky'!" (To be continued......)
