Chapter 58: The Dead Sea Papers
"Linglong Tower?" Di Renjie reached out in confusion and wanted to touch the Linglong Tower, but found that although the Linglong Tower was suspended in front of him, he couldn't touch it at all. His hand ran through the tower, as if it didn't belong in this space in the first place.
He had to let the crane fly closer and look up. The Linglong Pagoda hung in front of his eyes, and the faint red light reflected on his grim countenance.
In just a few seconds, he found that this exquisite pagoda was actually turning on its own, as if it was operating on its own, which was very strange. Di Renjie had never seen such an object before, and he was very surprised.
"Brother Di? What kind of baby is this? ”
After Li Bai arrived, he immediately showed great interest in Linglong Tower.
"It should be the Linglong Tower. It is rumored that the Linglong Pagoda was originally a treasure of the heavenly realm, but it can collect demons, suppress ghosts, and have a vast power, it is said that it can subdue all demons and monsters, and the immortals can also be subdued when necessary. The problem is that the Linglong Pagoda in front of him is not the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda of the Heavenly Gods. The tower is only five floors and is more like a replica. ”
Di Renjie thought about it and said seriously. Who would put this imitation of the exquisite pagoda here? It looks more like a trap.
"Brother Di, look at this tower, there are many patterns on each floor." Li Bai's eyes widened, and his face was about to stick to the small tower.
As soon as Di Renjie heard that there was a pattern, the strings in his head tightened. He waved his hand, and white runes flew out of his sleeve to wrap around the tower, but in the blink of an eye, the white runes lit up. Suddenly, the pattern on the small tower was magnified several times.
"And this spell? Awesome! ”
Li Bai was amazed, the pattern revealed on this white talisman was almost the same as his face when he was about to stick it.
"Since I was a child, I have been turning over a lot of ancient scrolls, and when I encounter fragments and defective handwriting, I will use this spell to enlarge them, so that I can write them down and verify them. It's not a great spell. ”
Di Renjie replied seriously, his eyes intently looking at the pattern that appeared on the white talisman.
The Linglong Pagoda that appeared in the white talisman had five layers, and the halo on each layer was a faint red. The bottom circle is a circle of ten small humanoid shapes. Among them are four humanoid motifs, with a shimmering light.
Di Renjie took a fixed look, except for the first human form, which looked like a boiler and couldn't tell who it was, and the remaining three villains, he vaguely recognized them as Arthur, Athena, and Angela. He was shocked, what was going on? Looking at the other six figures, they were just vague, as if they were waiting to be lit up.
"Isn't this figure the demon girl who died?"
Li Bai stretched out his hand and pointed at the white talisman, and Angela's shadow asked. The figure glowed with a fiery red light, like a sealed soul.
"Do you think it's weird? Why do people who are summoned by the Cloud Breaking Temple turn into beams of light and disappear after death? Di Renjie asked the doubts in his heart.
When Arthur died, he turned into a golden light, and at that time he thought it was because Arthur used a spell. Later, I saw the pale blue fireflies as Athena dissipated.
And the light of the fire after Angela's death, which made him very strange. At the same time, the blackened body of the person who was set on fire by Angela was still lying on the Jinyiwei.
"Is it possible that those people didn't really die?"
Li Bai also couldn't figure it out, looking at these figures, he couldn't see a conclusion for a long time, and his head hurt. He irritably untied the flask at his waist, tilted his head and took a sip of wine, instantly feeling much more comfortable.
Di Renjie glanced at the remaining six gray figures, what did this sign? He frowned, his fists clenched, and raised his eyes to look at the penultimate floor of the Linglong Tower.
The pattern on the second layer is much clearer, there are ten in total, and it looks like a weapon.
"Isn't this the staff in the woods that day?"
Li Bai asked, pointing to the pattern of the Nightmare Staff. What is this layer? He was getting more and more confused.
"You're right."
Di Renjie nodded. At the same time, he recognized the broken sword he wielded, the Void Staff that Daji had revealed, and Athena's Mask of Pain. He looked at it carefully, and he had already come to a conclusion in his heart.
"This layer should be the ten artifacts related to the Cloud Breaking Palace," Di Renjie thought and said to Li Bai.
"How can some glow and some dim?" Li Bai raised his eyebrows puzzled, why is this thing so mysterious.
"If I want to look, several artifacts I've seen are glowing, and a few that I haven't seen are also glowing. The only dim ones are the two weapons.
If I'm not mistaken, this should be a sign that the artifact record has already appeared. These two that haven't shone yet, they should be artifacts hidden somewhere in Chang'an City and haven't been discovered yet. Di Renjie guessed seriously.
The two weapons that had not yet shone were a sharp long knife, and the other was a small blood-red book. A lake is faintly drawn underneath the pattern of the long knife, and underneath the blood-red book is like a palace. Could this be a hint at the location of the treasure? Di Renjie secretly kept this information in his heart.
"Why is there nothing on the third floor?"
When Li Bai looked at the empty and white third layer, he felt inexplicable.
"It may not be revealed, there should be something." Di Renjie made a guess with years of experience in investigating cases.
If a blank space suddenly appears in a complex object, most of the blank space has been dug up or not revealed.
This Linglong Pagoda has a very strong aura, his hands can't touch it, and the chance of being dug up is very small, so it shouldn't be revealed. As for how to make the pattern appear, he didn't know for a while.
"Let's take a look up there."
Di Renjie sighed lightly. His gaze fell on the second floor of the Linglong Tower.
The patterns on the second layer are varied and blurry and illegible. Under Di Renjie's counting, there are twelve small pictures. He looked closely, and most of those patterns thought of pavilions, castles, and the like. It's like a reference to a certain place. The only two buildings he could identify were Chang'an and the Great Wall.
If you look at the order of the tower body from left to right, except for the first sign like the sun, the third is the sign of the Great Wall, and the fifth is Chang'an. The rest are really difficult to identify, Di Renjie's eyes are pantothenic when he sees it, and he still has no solution in his heart.
"I seem to have seen this sign of the sun somewhere."
When Li Bai saw the sign of the sun, he felt a little strange in his heart. What a strange method, it's probably the kind that is uncomfortable. He frowned, but still hadn't come up with a reason.
"I remembered that I had lost a fragment in the corner of my study, and there were strange things drawn on it." Di Renjie's thoughts in his mind turned flexibly.
The fragment in his mouth was a small broken book that he had stored at the bottom of the bookcase, and a lot of dust had accumulated. If I remember correctly, the title of the book seems to be called "Dead Sea Papers".
