Chapter Twenty-Six: Rebirth
Nine-colored surgery.
In the body of this young Qilin Town Tomb Beast, there is still a 1,200-year-old lifeform hidden. This is the true body of the Nine Colors, and the fawn's face resembles that of a deformed freak, as if it was still soaked in an alcohol bottle in a medical museum.
The freak was looking at Qin Beiyang, déjà vu, reunited after a long absence.
After the initial shock, Qin Beiyang gave this face a smile. He didn't shy away from eating a large amount of chemical poison last night, thinking that he wouldn't live long anyway, so he leaned down and kissed the little monster.
Yes, the Nine Colors knew him, and they knew him 1,200 years ago.
Qin Beiyang whispered a few words in its ear, but everyone around didn't hear it clearly. The little monster also became incredibly quiet, allowing surgical tools to roam through its body.
They found the nine-colored wings.
Hidden behind the fawn near the shoulder, these wings are actually not small, but folded and contracted, if the wingspan is fully opened, it will exceed the length of the entire divine beast, like a four-winged angel. Animal wings are usually divided into three types, one is the thin wing surface of insects, the second is the hard feathers of birds, and the third is the skeleton wing membrane of bats.
The nine-colored wings are somewhere in between, and they have the characteristics of wing veins, feathers, and wing membranes at the same time, which is breathtaking.
Li Longsheng saw the spirit stone, close to his abdomen, a large black stone with pits.
"This is the spirit stone of the tomb beast of the evil dragon town in the eastern sea of Dharma." Qin Beiyang pointed to the heart of the tomb beast, "This is the nine-colored spirit stone." ”
With the help of a small lamp, they saw another spirit stone—unlike the rough surface of other spirit stones, this spirit stone seemed to have been naturally polished, and it was as smooth as a pebble? It has an almost metallic sheen and radiates a dazzling light.
"Oh my god!" Cambridge Dr. Li Longsheng couldn't help but exclaim, "Is this a substance on earth?" ”
"I've never seen this kind of Tomb Beast Spirit Stone before!"
Qin Beiyang thought to himself, where did this stone come from? It's like there is a Son of Heaven level tomb beast hidden under the Qianling Tomb, could it be a Son of Heaven level spirit stone? Although, the spirit stone of the tomb beast will shorten the life span of humans and put their lives on the line, but it will not harm the nine colors. Because it is a special life form, "jumping out of the Three Realms and not in the Five Elements" is like it can swallow highly toxic chemicals, and ordinary people will die if they taste a little.
Giuseppe Caproni discovered the core of the nine-color damage - several of the pipes connecting the spirit stone to the organ were broken.
It turns out that on the surface of the nine-colored real body monster, there are many slender pipes inserted, and it is difficult to judge what material it is? The X-rays taken by Dr. Holstein did not reveal the tubes, perhaps confused with other organs. These materials are extremely strong and will not break for 1,200 years. It's like a dying patient, struggling to survive with the help of external forces.
While escaping from the Versailles airport, a shell pierced the body of the Nine Colors, breaking the lines – just as the electrical appliances would go out when they were cut short. When the spirit stone is unable to provide energy, the vitality of the tomb beast will become weaker and weaker, and finally it will be close to death. Only a steady stream of toxic chemicals can reactivate the spirit stone.
Li Longsheng discussed a restoration plan with Qin Beiyang, replacing the Tang Dynasty's pipelines with modern materials, and reconnecting the spirit stone with the little monster lifeform. They also had to replace some parts and completely repair the pierced shell. In view of the particularity of the nine colors, it is absolutely forbidden to carry out mechanized transformation, except for the original spirit stone, no artificial energy will be provided, such as internal combustion engines and generators, to ensure that its original nature remains unchanged.
The above work lasted for three days and three nights, everyone ate and lived in the warehouse, and Qin Beiyang stayed up all night. Only Anna had to return to the Chinese delegation in Versailles every night, but she was silent about the Tomb Beasts.
For Li Longsheng, what he has seen and heard these days has far exceeded the knowledge he gained at Cambridge University, and I am afraid that any scientist who sees Jiuse will be like a treasure and put it in the laboratory for careful study, and can even be nominated for the Nobel Prize.
"The legend of the tomb beast has been around since ancient times, sixty years ago the British and French forces burned the Old Summer Palace, and Westerners have heard of the existence of the tomb beast, but no one can see the real face, just like the legend of the evil dragon in Europe...... "Li Longsheng is also oily, "Some scholars believe that as the global temperature rises, there will be more and more sighting records of dragons in the future." ”
"Maybe!"
Qin Beiyang remembered the monster museum he saw in Japan.
"The Cambridge University Library contains portraits of tomb beasts drawn by missionaries based on the descriptions of tomb robbers, most of which are a combination of demons and beasts, and the text explains that these monsters have the power of Satan."
"According to the depiction of the tomb robbers? If the tomb robbers really saw the tomb beast, probably their lives would have come to an end, and where would they have the opportunity to describe it to the missionaries? Except for the warlords who now rob tombs with machine guns and explosives. ”
Li Longsheng said solemnly: "Science is on the eve of a great explosion, and what was thought to be myth or science fiction yesterday has become a reality today. Theoretical physics and mechanical dynamics must abandon all preconceptions. Regarding the nature of the world, the origin of the universe, it is necessary to boldly put forward hypotheses and then carefully verify them with scientific methods. ”
"Like 'soul machines'?"
Qin Beiyang looked back at the nine-colored tomb beast in the town under restoration, as well as the dormant four-winged angel.
"Yes, in the past two years, while I have been studying theoretical physics at Cambridge University, I have also been studying a concept in traditional Chinese philosophy - qi."
"That's Feng Shui." Qin Beiyang remembered "Qin's Tomb Craftsman", "Qi gathers and is born, and qi disperses and dies." The world comes into being from nothing, depending on qi, in order to be differentiated into yin and yang and the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. When we build a tomb, we first look for the dragon veins and find the location where the qi is gathered, the so-called point point. And the emperor's 10,000-year-old auspicious box must dig a golden well to connect the qi of heaven and earth. ”
Wang Chong, an atheist in the Eastern Han Dynasty, said that heaven and earth are in harmony, and all things are self-generated. The concept of modern physics holds that the essence of gas is ultrafine particles and their fields. ”
"Ultrafine particles?"
This is beyond the scope of Qin Beiyang's knowledge, Li Longsheng said with a sense of superiority: "These are the latest technologies, as well as hypotheses such as dark matter and dark energy. Science, while rigorous, also requires bold imagination. Last week, I met my idol, Albert Einstein, in Berlin. ”
When the two chatted here, Qin Beiyang was speechless, and he had mixed feelings in his heart. Isn't this young and handsome man in front of him the kind of person he dreamed of becoming day and night when he was studying at a German school in Tianjin? His heart was cramping, his life was short, and he was still thinking about his childhood dreams.
Finally, the restoration of the tomb beast in the young unicorn town was completed.
Everyone gathered in the warehouse, the nine colors were new, and the bronze shell was much more beautiful, but it was still standing motionless on the workbench as if it was hypnotized.
Ouyang Anna said worriedly: "Just like when I saw it for the first time two years ago, will it return to the state it was then?" ”
Qin Beiyang walked to Jiuse's side and actually knelt down with a plop.
He looked at the nine-colored eyes, as if he had returned to the depths of the White Deer Plains Necropolis Palace, the moment when he was born nineteen years ago. The little baby who just crawled out of his mother's womb, on the coffin of the little prince of the Tang Dynasty, saw the first pair of eyes in the world for the first time, which was the eyes of this tomb beast. The murals on the four sides of the underground palace are vivid for a while, and the maids, warriors, scholars, servants, musicians, and dancers of the Tang Dynasty have their own expressions and souls, or dance, or raise a glass to feast and drink, or chant poems against each other, or say goodbye to their hometown to serve in labor, or bury their bones in the army for thousands of miles...... Everyone in the mural, regardless of their origin, has joys and sorrows, and it is inevitable that they will die.
As a result, the mural dimmed again, falling into a silence of 1,200 years.
He saw the face of the little prince of the Tang Dynasty in the coffin - the king of Zhongnan County, Li Longqi, under the silence of the eons of Luo, lightly opened his red lips and recited a long list of Tang Dynasty Chang'an sounds......
Drive up to the east gate and look at the tomb of Guo Bei.
Poplar He Xiao Xiao, pine and cypress Jiaguang Road.
There are dead people under Chen, and the twilight is long.
Sleeping under the Yellow Spring, a thousand years will never sleep.
Hao Hao Yin and Yang move, and the year is like morning dew.
Life is like a send, and there is no gold and stone solidity in life.
Long live the overlap, the sages are incompetent.
Taking food to seek immortals is mostly mistaken by medicine.
It is better to drink fine wine and be served with vegetarian food.
In the chaotic darkness, after the little prince of the Tang Dynasty finished reading this poem, Qin Beiyang was also in the forest in the northern suburbs of Paris, facing their common partner, the town tomb beast Jiu Se recited it. The two are 1,200 years apart, but they recited "Driving to the East Gate" in "Nineteen Ancient Poems" in unison.
The death of a person is like falling into a long night, and the poor fall into the yellow spring. Life is like morning dew, fleeting under the sun, and a night of hurried passers-by. This is what the Taoist says, "life is like sending", and it is better to be happy than to be proud of life. Wu Zetian set the capital of Luoyang, and the king of Zhongnan County was her grandson, so he must have also driven to the east gate, looked at Guo Bei's tomb from afar, and sighed similarly?
Who can live forever? There are only nine colors of the tomb beast.
Suddenly, Jiuse's eyes blinked, and it was awakened by this Chinese poem.
Anna applauded, and Giuseppe Caproni, Li Longsheng, and Chanco frowned.
The small-town tomb beast shook its antlers and tilted its neck slightly, staring at the Chinese boy kneeling in front of him. It recognized this face, so it stuck its tongue out of its mouth and licked Qin Beiyang's nose.
Hot tears slipped from the corners of his eyes, Qin Beiyang hugged the awakened Nine Colors tightly, buried his head in its red mane, touched the cracks of each piece of scale armor, and felt the temperature in the body of the tomb beast.
The Tomb Beast's heart spirit stone was heating up, as hot as a boiling steamer.
Suddenly, Qin Beiyang fainted at the feet of Jiuse, foaming at the mouth, unconscious......
Chanko rushed up and touched his mouth and nose, but he was no longer breathing!
