Immediately after that, a group of people gathered in front of a certain cave appeared on the mural, pointing, I looked a little familiar, and I thought that the cave seemed to be the dark room that Sheng Shiyao and I had just explored, but at this time, the painting had not yet built the stone room outside. Did someone discover that kind of gold and stone mine? Sure enough, the paintings behind him depict how to mine, but it doesn't seem to have much effect, as can be seen from the sad faces on everyone's faces.

At this time, the scene changed to the girl sitting in the house with her parents eating, as if they were talking about something. Then the girl's father ran to the gold and stone mine with joy, and pointed to an old man, and then the next scene saw the workers start work, and the pieces of gold and stone were taken down and processed, and I don't know how they were used, and those stones could be ground into powder, and then on the ordinary stones, the long steps of white marble appeared.

The process can almost be described as magical, but there is no specific way to do it. At this point, I had some idea that the girl had come up with a way for her father to tell the leader of the gold and stone gatherers to achieve this craft.

Later, several paintings were built by workers to build houses, including this ancient castle, which was also built at that time, using gold and stone raw materials to melt into ordinary rough stones, so as to make these white marble-like noble stones. A caravan happened to pass by, and one of them went to the construction site and asked, and the man was painted with a cunning face and a cunning look in his eyes. As the caravan departed, the man looked back as he walked, and then the black army came, and war descended on the pristine sand.

This is called "the husband is not guilty, but he is guilty", which means that the people are not guilty, but they are guilty because they are hiding jasper. The gold and stone are so precious that outsiders must covet them when they find them, and if you look closely, you will find that among the invading armies, there is a general in silver armor, and next to him is the merchant who was standing before, and from their dress, they look like Hu people.

Because it was a sudden attack, even if the wizard led the local army to fight, it was a rout one after another. At this time, a crowd of people gathered outside the girl's house, and her parents stood in front of the door explaining to the others, while the girl stood inside the wall, looking up at the sky, her eyes showing sorrow and grief.

Seeing this, a strange feeling crossed my heart, and it seemed that my emotions were also substituted into it, and I followed the ups and downs of this girl. Was she worried about the war and grieving for the dead?

I don't understand, why is there a war, and the common people will go to her? It was quickly solved, because the frescoes that followed were carved with the girl wearing a white veil in front of the people, looking up to the sky and the ground, and standing side by side with the wizard on the chariot, smiling at the local army in front of them, beating the enemy to the ground until all the enemy troops were driven back.

Seeing this scene, I couldn't help laughing, it turned out that this girl was a military wizard, but I don't know where her strategic knowledge came from, the couple looked faithful and simple, and they were not that kind of genius people.

I suddenly remembered that Sheng Shiyao hadn't spoken for a long time, so I raised the doubts just now to him, but after waiting for a while, I didn't hear him reply, turned my head to look, and saw that he was one meter ahead of me, staring at the mural with deep eyes, and he was even more fascinated than me. Can't help but approach him to see what makes him so focused.

The girl was lying on a high platform, her eyes closed, her expression serene, and layers of dry wood piled up around her, and the wizard under the platform held torches, and behind him knelt countless people, including the girl's parents, and their expressions were sad. That means the girl...... He's dead? How so?

I hurriedly looked back at the one I had skipped before, and found that there was nothing special, just a scene of harmonious celebration after the victory of the war. Then without warning, it turned into the scene of the girl lying on the high platform, and then she couldn't help it, and gently pulled Sheng Shiyao's sleeve and asked, "What's going on?" Why did that girl suddenly ......?"

He pondered his eyes for a long time, and only spit out four words: "Destiny returns." ”

I don't understand, what is destiny? What does the girl's death have to do with destiny?

I only heard Sheng Shiyao say slowly: "This woman has a certain special ability since she was born, and she is admired by the people around her. But she was born at the wrong time, she was born in an era when women were virtuous if they were not talented, so they could only show themselves as men. But her parents were very worried about this, and invited a wizard, hoping to make their daughter an ordinary person. It's just that one person's talent can't be buried, and natural disasters and man-made disasters can't be helped, and the people can hide from the storm and thirst, but they can't escape the war. In the end, the woman still responded to the plea of the people and went out of the mountain to save the troubled times, and the war was finally quelled with the joint efforts of her and the wizard, and the people of the ancient city were at peace. But she also returned to the West for violating the Mandate of Heaven, and the fire was the noblest funeral for her. ”

At this point, his gaze was fixed on the last mural on the left wall, which was full of blazing fire, and only in the far corner was a pair of hands, which, judging from the black sleeves, were supposed to be the hands of a wizard, and his hands were closed as if he were holding something in his hands.

I feel sorry for this woman, and she is the one who is famous. I asked Sheng Shiyao, "What is her special ability?" ”

He said, "Prophet." ”

My heart trembled inexplicably, thinking back to the murals I saw earlier, there are indeed a few scenes of women looking up to the sky and bowing their heads to the ground, is that a prophecy? No wonder the people around her adore and believe in her.

I only heard Sheng Shiyao say again: "The prophet not only has insight into the heavens, but also disobeys the mandate of heaven, changes the number of orders that cannot be violated, and even changes history, so the prophet will pay the price for the future he predicts, and the life span will not be too long." ”

At this point, I have a general understanding that the original war was actually the defeat of this ancient city, and because the girl saw the opportunity to turn the situation around, it may have changed the political situation at that time.

Suddenly I thought to myself, isn't my dream warning a kind of prophet? Could it be that this special ability I possess will also shorten my lifespan because of the prediction of the future, so my grandmother borrowed Yang Shou Zhenyin to renew my life? But my dream warning only came after my grandmother's accident, and I didn't have it before I was eleven years old, so how could my grandmother know?

"Tiny?" Sheng Shiyao's summoning voice pulled back my flying thoughts, and when I turned my eyes, I saw that he was already standing in front of the stone gate and frowning at me. Hurriedly gathered his mind and walked to him, are you going to open the door and enter this floor? Basically, the pattern inside was already in my heart, and there would be an oversized black-winged bat carved on the wall of the door, but when Sheng Shiyao actually opened the door, my whole body stiffened, and my eyes glared in horror.

It's not a mural, it's a real giant bat standing right in front of us, its eyes glowing green and red, staring at us closely, ready to pounce at any moment.

"It's a statue, not a real thing." Sheng Shiyao suddenly spoke beside him.

It took two seconds for his brain to react to his words, which is fake? Blinking his eyes several times, he held back the fear in his heart, and observed the ugly bat little by little, and finally had to marvel that it was really a miracle to be able to carve a sculpture so lifelike, and those places that looked like wings were actually carved with fine lines.

When we got closer, we found that the giant black-winged bat was a relief, and its back was connected to the wall, which was really indescribable. Out of the corner of his eye, he drifted to the corner on the right side of the inner room, and couldn't help but turn his head to look, and saw that it was a stone bed similar to the one in the ancient castle before, but this stone bed was obviously different, or rather, it was a real white jade bed.

Crystal clear, smooth and moist, scorching and shiny, many good adjectives appeared in my mind, and an inexplicable force pulled me forward, and an illusory image suddenly floated in my mind, as if I saw a woman in white lying on this stone bed, with her hands folded in front of her, her face serene. And when my fingers touched the stone bed, the image suddenly disappeared, because the fingertips were cold, and the coldness penetrated the skin and penetrated into the heart.

"Yingxiang cold jade bed?" Sheng Shiyao questioned in his ears.

I looked at him in amazement, "Have you ever seen a bed like this?" ”

He shook his head lightly and said lightly: "I haven't seen it, I have seen it from a book, the whole body is crystal clear, the texture is cold, its chill will not penetrate out, unless it is direct contact to feel, if people return to the west, lying on it can have the effect of calming the gods and protecting the soul." ”

"When people are dead, what gods and souls do they need to protect? And the word Hanyu can also be explained, what does this fragrance mean? Fragrance? Where is the fragrance? "I stood in front of the stone bed for so long, and I didn't smell anything, but I saw Sheng Shiyao reach out and gently wipe it on the jade bed, then put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, and said, "The fragrance is here." ”

I raised my finger that had touched the jade bed just now and sniffed it, and sure enough, I smelled a faint fragrance wafting in the air, and the smell became weaker and weaker, until then there was no smell at all. Curious for a moment, I approached the stone bed to smell it, but there was no smell, and the tip of my nose touched the cold jade bed, and the coolness instantly penetrated into my skin, and the fragrance immediately floated out.

"What's going on? How is it that the fragrance is sometimes absent? "I really can't figure out what is inside, so I asked Sheng Shiyao. He smiled lightly and said: "The reason is very simple, using the principle of temperature difference, the human body temperature is neutralized with the coldness of the cold jade, and when it reaches a certain point, the fragrance will come out." ”

It's true, I put my palm on the jade bed, and then I got closer to smell it, and immediately smelled the fragrance, not to mention, this smell is very pleasant. Sheng Shiyao above his head suddenly said, "Xiaoxiao, you lie down and try it." ”

"Huh?" I looked up in amazement and saw that he had a serious face, not like he was joking. But this cold jade bed is so cold, just sticking to the palm of my hand on it, I feel chills all over.
