Chapter 108: Clues
Uncle Lao Yang stared at a mural, his face shocked and solemn. He said to us, "Come and see, I've made a new discovery!" ”
When everyone heard Uncle Yang's call, they suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes focused on the mural ten meters away. Everyone walked to Uncle Lao Yang's side and turned on all the flashlights, and the mural presented in front of us at this moment was really a little unusual! The mural seems to record a strange thing that happened in ancient times, and at the same time, it also unravels the origin of this ancient tomb built in the mountain.
According to the mural, during the Tang Dynasty, a strange thing happened in the Central Plains. There is a man named "Zi Buyu" who accidentally got a broken ancient mask. Zi Bu said: This mask, called "Jade of the Living Dead", is a sacred object. Those who have obtained this thing are immortal and immortal, and the dream bubble comes true, which is the key to great bliss.
Zhou Boren frowned and said, "Zi is silent...... Why does this name sound so familiar? I remember reading it in a book, but I can't remember it for a while, is this his tomb? ”
Pudding was an editor at a publishing house in Beijing before joining the Unsolved Mysteries Institute, and the books she had read in her life were basically the same as Xiangpiaopiao milk tea, which could circle the earth three times together. So Pudding said: "Zi Buyu should be another name, not a real name, the root comes from the "Analects of the Analects", the name says: Zi Buyu is strange and chaotic." ”
Er Biao looked at Pudding enviously and said, "Pudding, you are really educated." ”
Since ancient times, everything under this heaven has a cause and effect. Although our target, Master Po, ran away, by chance, we got an important clue about the "Jade of the Living Dead". At this moment, on the mural in front of us, it is clearly recorded that the second piece of "Jade of the Living Dead" is on this person named "Zi Buyu". In other words, as long as we find "Zi Buyu", it is equivalent to finding the second piece of jade of the living dead.
We continued to search and found that there were six such murals, all of which were related to "Zi Buyu". After connecting these fragmentary clues, we realized that the tens of thousands of dead bodies neatly arranged in the main hall were not killed, but committed suicide. These people are all believers in the "Son of Silence", and they believe that the "Jade of the Living Dead" can lead them to the so-called Great Elysium, where they will never die and never die, so that all dreams can become reality.
I looked at the lifeless corpse in front of me and sighed. It is clear that they have not attained immortality, and it is impossible for them to turn all their dreams into reality because of a black mask. These people are dead, dead of their own ignorance and foolishness, and nothing else.
The sixth mural found by Gu Nianxia completely pointed out the direction for us, it turned out that this was not the real mausoleum of "Zi Buyu", but a burial tomb built for him. The ancients believed that the "Big Dipper" was the auspicious appearance, so the believers of "Zi Buyu" arranged the "Big Dipper" and built seven burial tombs in the Qinling Mountains, and surrounded the mausoleum of "Zi Buyu" with each other.
Crazy, crazy!
I looked at the mural in front of me, and kept muttering to myself: "Crazy, all crazy, tens of thousands of people ran to Qinling to commit suicide for a legend that has never been confirmed, are these people brain-dead?" ”
Zhou Boren said: "Whether they are brain-dead or not has nothing to do with us. Whether the Living Dead Jade is real or fake will only be known after we gather the four pieces. And I am very curious about what is recorded in the ancient inscription of the Wuxiang Kingdom, that is, the so-called "life is also death, death is also life". Now that we know the exact location of the second piece of the Living Dead Jade, I think it is best for us to set off immediately and go to the "Tomb of Zi Buyu" to retrieve the Living Dead Jade from him."
Zhou Boren is right, this coincidence allowed us to get an important clue, the second piece of living dead jade is in the tomb of Zi Buyu. Fortunately, Master Po only studied "refining ghost mastiffs" and "head swapping", and he didn't understand the things depicted on these murals at all, otherwise with his and Boss Wang's urine, they would have been looking for it a long time ago, and it would not be our turn.
Hit the snake and hit the seven inches,
First of all, you have to know where the seven inches are.
These two fools clearly recorded the funeral of their great "Big Dipper" on the mural, and I think if Mr. Zi Buyu knew about it, he would definitely be able to jump out of the coffin angrily. Wouldn't that reveal the location of his tomb to tomb robbers?
As the saying goes, "If you are not afraid of God's opponents, you are afraid of pig teammates". Mr. Zibuyu may be depressed, but that's not our concern. He slept comfortably holding a piece of jade of the living dead, but he was tired enough to choke our descendants, so we had to find it all the time.
Do you still remember, when I was in the tomb of Aunt Braid, I seized an ancient painting of the old society in the name of New China. It is precisely because of this ancient painting that we learn that the second piece of jade of the living dead is hidden in a so-called "five-clawed golden dragon" land.
From this, we deduce that the so-called "five-clawed golden dragon" should refer to the Qinling Mountains that separate the north and south of China. But we don't know the exact location.
However, the murals in the "Zi Buyu Burial Tomb" have solved our problems at once. So we took out the map and compared the "five-clawed golden dragon" and the "Big Dipper", and found that the location they pointed to was 100% consistent, which was the "Cuomei Peak" in the Gannan area. This also copes with our previous conjectures!
Now that we've figured out the whole thing, there's no point in staying here. So, with Zhou Boren's order, our group no longer wasted time, returned the same way with a strong flashlight, and exited this "Zi Bu Yu Burial Tomb".
Walking out of the dark cave, below is the big lake where the "Xuanwu turtle" lives, this waterway is definitely impassable, the Xuanwu turtle and the ghost mastiff are not the same level of creatures at all, and they can't be provoked. So everyone took out the "probing claws" from their backpacks, one by one, and climbed to the top of the cliff, which was also the only way for us.
Over this cliff, everyone sat in a woods to rest. Uncle Zhou has a high-power signal machine, which looks very much like a Nokia mobile phone, but it is not a mobile phone, it can't make calls, it can't send text messages, it can only send signal frequency, just like the spy war dramas we often watch, ticking and ticking, and transmitting information to the headquarters of the Unsolved Mysteries Research Institute in the form of Morse code.
After Zhou Boren tinkered for a long time, he said to us: "Okay, I have already told the headquarters what happened here, and I asked them to quickly send armed forces into the Qinling Mountains to search the mountains in the name of the Institute of Unsolved Mysteries, even if this mountain range is turned over, it is necessary to capture Master Po!" ”
I smiled and hugged my fist at Zhou Boren: "Social people, social people, I can't afford to provoke ......"
Zhou Boren ignored my ridicule, stood up and said solemnly: "Everyone, let's go!" Our goal: the Tomb of the Child. ”
