Chapter 668: If you can't understand the pictures, tell a story first
Bianliang and Leyu entered the box one after the other.
Looking at the snow-white walls everywhere, the two said almost at the same time: "The house is surrounded by four walls." ”
At that time, Leyu's family was very poor, and this word was the most impressive to her.
Bian Liang glanced at the girl curiously, and felt that her luck was not ordinarily good.
Because this sentence is the code word for opening the wall mechanism.
There was a faint grinding sound in the box, and four huge pictures slowly lowered against the four walls of the box.
In the first painting, a man crouches on the ground and looks up at a huge monster that is scarlet, like a giant bat, hanging upside down with a charcoal fire underneath.
Because the bat was so big, the man looked extremely small, and his facial features could not be seen clearly.
In the second painting, two old men stand guard in front of an extremely tall mountain, on which is engraved the word "Tianshan", and countless scarlet claws are exposed under the mountain, as if many bats have been suppressed at the bottom of the mountain.
The third painting is a park, full of trees and flowers, and on a path that twists through the flowers, there is a transparent coffin, on which is inscribed: Chilled and delicious, and there are countless crystal clear small coffins inside the coffin.
The fourth is not a painting, but two columns of writing vertically, and a signature.
Left column: Are you hungry?
Column on the right: Eat when you're hungry.
Signature: Scholar's child
Leyu thought it was strange, especially the last words.
"Big brother, is this a place to eat?" The woman asked.
If it is a place to eat, why is there no table, chair, or dining utensils, but if it is not, what does the boy of the scholar mean?
Bian Liang also felt strange, the strangest thing about him was the first picture, the bat's claws were very similar to the claw tips brought out of the stone forest, could that thing be eaten?
At the thought of eating, the staff officer, who had been busy for most of the day, suddenly felt a little hungry.
"I don't know." Bian Liang answered truthfully, memorized the four pictures in his mind, and began to climb the spiraling staircase.
There are four floors in the sky, and from this staircase you go up to the end of the skytower.
At the top of the staircase, there is a golden door with the Chinese character "End" written on the door.
Jin Liang couldn't understand it, Bianliang looked strange, how could such a familiar text appear in the bottom of the sea.
There is a bloody handprint under the text, which is recorded in the yellow book, and this handprint existed when the sky tower appeared, but in the eyes of the two of them, the blood stain looked like it had just flowed down from the person's body, bright in color, and a little wet.
Bian Liang spread the fingers of his right hand and pressed it along the mudra, not big, not too small, just right.
Le Yu looked at Bianliang in some surprise, if it weren't for the eldest brother who had been downstairs with her, the woman would have thought that this bloody handprint was imprinted by the eldest brother.
After Bianliang's hand was pressed up, the blood on the handprint seemed to be alive, flowing on the door, and soon the two characters at the end were full.
After the handwriting turned red, some strokes fell off, and the word fell out by two points, becoming a ruler character, and the head fell off the upper part, leaving a figure of eight.
Shakuhachi? Bian Liang was even more strange, he was trying to study it carefully and see the mystery in this word, but who knew that the gate had become a completely transparent shape at this time, as if a thin veil was draped under the vermilion door frame.
Inside the tulle, a large circular wood carving is faintly visible.
Bianliang lifted the tulle and walked in with Leyu to the front of the statue.
"It's a human face." Le Yu said after looking at the statue.
Bianliang nodded, and the mouth and nose were clearly visible in the statue, that is, the eyes and eyebrows were a very thin slit.
This seam is extremely thin, much thinner than a blank piece of paper, and you can't find it without energy feeling.
"It's a child." Leyu continued.
Bian Liang smiled and asked, "How do you see it?" ”
The statue has only one head, the face is slightly round, about a person as tall, among the facial features, the lips are red and the nose is straight, if it is a man, it is too handsome, some women, if it is a woman, as long as the eyebrows are small, it must be a beauty.
Bian Liang felt that most of this person was a man, because the hair on the top of the statue was the length of a palm, and it was all erected like a hedgehog.
But no matter how you look at it, without eyebrows and eyes, Bianliang can't tell the age.
Le Yu pointed to the black hair of the statue, and said with certainty: "The scale armor has not grown, and it is still slender black hair, such a person must be less than a year old." ”
The woman had only heard of people on land, but had never actually seen them, so she didn't know that there was such a thing as hair.
Bianliang was dumbfounded, and did not dwell on this issue.
Regardless of the beauty, the race is different
Ugly, it's not interesting to discuss this with people of different races.
The staff officer came to the back around the statue, and under the black hair, if you feel it carefully, you can also find four slender slits.
This time, Le Yu didn't see it, the statue was missing eyes and eyebrows on its face, and the woman would look for it carefully, but there was no organ in the back of the head, and it was not a bald and shiny strange back of the head, so the woman naturally failed to find it.
Le Yu only glanced at it a few times, and then his gaze shifted to the tulle, where there were two strange words, and the woman had always been curious.
After Bian Liang found the eight seams according to the records of the Yellow Book, he looked at Le Yu with some excitement, and looked at the tulle with the girl's eyes.
At this time, it was not the shakuhachi character seen outside the door, but the order was reversed and became eight shaku (Note 13, the ruler character is left and right in reverse, and the word cannot be typed).
Seeing the eight characters, Bianliang smiled knowingly, the eight seams were just right.
Le Yu really couldn't understand those two words, so he looked at the eldest brother curiously, waiting for his explanation.
Bian Liang patted the back of the statue's head, his mind turned, and suddenly said with a smile: "Xiaoyuer, there is a story in our hometown, you can listen to it." ”
Leyu turned around and began to listen.
Bian Liang looked at the girl's calm face, as if he saw the carefree girl again, even if she had a rough life, she was always optimistic.
The sky can't fall, it has always been this girl's mantra.
But he didn't have to look closely to see that the girl's eyes were dark, and even if the sky hadn't fallen, it was already dark, the kind of black that would never shine again.
Bianliang didn't want Leyu girl to live in the dark all the time, so he deliberately brought her here to tell such a story.
"Once upon a time, there was a very old legend." When Bianliang told the story, his eyes were slanted upward, and his chin was dragged with one hand, which was quite a bit of a storyteller, and his excitement was in line with the beginning of the storytelling.
"Legend has it that there is a real dragon in the world, accidentally lost seven beads, the real dragon announced to the world, no matter who it is, as long as you collect these seven dragon balls, you will agree to him a request, anything you ask." When Bian Liang said this, he peeked at the woman and found that the corners of the woman's mouth moved slightly, as if she had thought of something.
