Chapter 37, The True Vault (2)
It's like a deduction problem, from the beginning of the clue, through various clues finally deduced the obsidian in the glazed building, but all the speculation has not been confirmed, the result depends on whether they find something in the glazed building.
People are not allowed to enter the old house of the Zhang family, but there are still many photos of the glazed building on the Internet, and even many of them are group photos.
After the rain, the air is particularly fresh, and the sky in the distance begins to appear as white as a fish's maw, and it seems that the sun is about to rise.
The three of them successfully climbed up to the glass building, and looked carefully from the first floor, but they didn't find anything, and the glass building is actually not a big internal space, and almost all places on each floor can be seen through at a glance.
"I've seen the first two floors, but there's nothing, I've even touched every brick on the wall, and I still haven't found anything, let's go to the third floor." Fang Chao said disappointedly.
Everyone slowly climbed to the third floor of the glass building, compared to the two floors below, the third floor has a wider view, because the third floor is equipped with many relatively large windows, through which you can see the city outside.
Tang Yao stood by the window and looked into the distance, now it was close to six o'clock, the sunrise had begun in the distance, the sky and the earth were not dark, the whole city seemed to come to life, although the hustle and bustle of the city could not be heard here, but the majestic vitality of the city could be felt.
Tens of millions of people live in the city, busy living their lives, they may not know each other, but they have set foot on the same ground, and this may be the charm of a big city.
"What do you think?" Fang Chao searched for a while and found nothing, so he walked to Tang Yao's side and asked.
Tang Yao smiled and said: "I'm looking at this city, the city I grew up in, I used to think I knew it very well, I thought I knew the rules of the city, but now I feel that it is very strange, because there is another side hidden under the so-called reality, and I am at the bottom of the world whether it is in the surface of the world or the world below, life is really difficult." ”
There is no need to cry and say some bitterness, at least Tang Yao thinks so, because your tears are worthless in the eyes of others.
"Brother, think about the best place, at least we can still live to see the sun, the darkness of this world is countless times bigger than we imagined." Fang Chao patted Tang Yao on the shoulder as he spoke.
His words seemed to inspire Tang Yao, Tang Yao muttered to himself: "The sun, yes, why didn't I think that the key is the sun, and the key point of the alternation of sun and yin may not necessarily refer to the east corner of the Zhang family's old mansion, or not only the east corner, it may also be useful in this place." ”
As he spoke, the sun finally emerged from the thick clouds, after the thunderstorm and the long night, ten thousand golden rays of sunlight shone on the entire city, at this moment a ray of sunlight shone on Tang Yao's face, Tang Yao quickly took a step to the side, and the sunlight then sprinkled on the ground on the third floor of the glass building.
A miraculous scene happened, and several large golden characters appeared on the ground, and these golden characters had never been seen before.
"The fire of the Seven Dawns is hidden deep here."
The meaning of this sentence has been very clear, Fang Chao on the side hurriedly walked around the golden characters to check, but did not find anything, he squatted on the ground to see if there was a bulge, at this time, the old man who accompanied the three of them to the third floor of the glass building appeared strange.
He looked at the golden sunshine, holding a miniature version of the glass building in his hand, the whole miniature version of the glass building exuded a brilliant brilliance, he faced the sun with tears on his face, and whispered as if talking to himself: "Mother, are you okay?" ”
Tang Yao was taken aback when he heard this, as if the old man saw his mother, who had been dead for many years, at this time, the san man beside him whispered: "It seems that illusions are arranged here, but the people in the illusions are specially selected, which means that only this old man can enter illusions here." ”
"And such an operation?" Tang Yao asked in surprise.
San Yao nodded, signaling Tang Yao not to speak anymore and continue to read.
The old man lifted the miniature version of the glass building high, then knelt down on his knees, and said to his mother who appeared in the illusion, with tears on his face: "Mother, I haven't been home for so many years, and I don't know that you have prepared these for me, it is I who have failed your expectations, and I am not filial." ”
He kowtowed heavily, although he was old, he didn't care about his body at all, and every time he kowtowed, he used all his strength, and after a few knocks, he saw blood marks on his forehead.
Tang Yao was a little unbearable, but he didn't dare to disturb the old man at this time, but he saw that the old man raised his head, as if he was listening to something, it seemed that his mother was talking to him in the illusion, the sadness on his face gradually turned into a smile, the tears dried up, and the weathered old cheeks seemed to have a layer of soft light.
In the next second, he stood up and walked to the center of the third floor of the glass building, and then raised the miniature version of the glass building in his hand, aimed at the center of the zenith, he closed his eyes and shouted: "Mother, it will not be long before we can meet underground, and I will definitely serve you at that time, and repay the kindness I owe." ”
The voice fell, it seemed that the sun had risen a lot, and the sunlight that originally shone into the third floor of the glass building disappeared, but it was incredible that the miniature version of the glass building held by the old man still emitted a bright light, and the light even made Tang Yao feel unreal, the old man sighed lightly and let go of his hand, and then Tang Yao saw a more magical scene, the miniature version of the glass building did not fall to the ground, but flew towards the zenith in the opposite direction, and the next moment it was inserted into a groove in the center of the zenith.
When this scene was completed, the ceiling of the third floor of the glazed building actually began to rotate, and two holes slowly opened above, and two ropes fell from these two holes, and a wooden box was hung on each rope.
Tang Yao and Fang Chao hurriedly stepped forward and took down the two wooden boxes, and as soon as they finished taking them, the miniature version of the glazed small building fell from the ceiling, and then fell to the ground and turned into pieces, and the zenith that changed after turning quickly returned to its original state, to Tang Yao's surprise, at this moment, if you look closely at the zenith, there is no trace of it, and you can't see the hidden mechanism inside at all.
The old man also got rid of the illusion, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, shook his head and said, "I'm still crying so much when I'm old, hehe, it's not good." ”
"Old man, what do you see?" Fang Chao stepped forward and asked with concern.
"I saw my mother, just now this has become the hut where my mother and I used to live, at that time my mother and I had to work at home, and we could only be reunited very late, I would sometimes lie on my mother's lap, she gently patted me on the back and coaxed me to sleep, just now I saw this scene again, I couldn't help but be moved to tears, and then my mother said to me, let me take the model of the glass building to the bottom of the zenith, and said that it was a gift for me, she also called my nickname, she said that those two gifts can help me live a little better in this world." The old man said movingly.
"Can we open it up and take a look?" Tang Yao asked.
After getting the old man's consent, he and Fang Chao each opened the wooden box in their hands, Tang Yao just pushed the lid of the wooden box open a crack, and saw a red light through the wooden box, and when he completely opened the lid of the wooden box, his whole face was filled with the red light in the box, and what appeared in front of him was a red gem, probably only a few millimeters in diameter, but the red light emitted was extraordinarily bright.
"Is this the legendary obsidian?" Tang Yao muttered to himself in surprise, stretched out his hand and pinched the obsidian in the palm of his hand, when he pinched the obsidian, he only felt that this gem was a little cold, but before he could understand other feelings, he saw a raging flame burning on the obsidian in his hand, he was startled and instinctively wanted to throw the obsidian away, but as soon as he raised his hand, he found that the flame did not burn his flesh and skin.
He pinched the obsidian and a flame of fire, but his fingers felt no pain, and the flames didn't seem to hurt him.
"It's amazing, did you see this fire, why didn't it burn me?" Tang Yao asked in surprise.
But Fang Chao on the other side shook his head and said, "I didn't see any flames, did you fall into illusion?" ”
