Chapter 50: A Complete History
Seeing Li You's stunned look, Professor Qi still looked calm and light, and said: "Isn't it strange, the transverse in the ancient scroll was originally the yin and yang in Zhou Yi, and every engraved character in the ancient scroll corresponds to the hexagram and epigram in Zhou Yi's 8864 hexagrams. ”
Li You suddenly realized and said happily: "So that means that in fact, the content that the author wants to express can be corresponded to from these hexagrams?" ”
Professor Qi nodded, quite a teachable compliment, and said: "Yes, but this is far from enough, because these hexagrams themselves have their own meanings, and the content of the inscriptions in the ancient scrolls naturally does not refer to them, in fact, each inscription only corresponds to the position of these hexagrams and inscriptions." ”
Li You nodded again and again. He was a smart man, and he quickly understood the intentions of the author of "Gleaning". Each inscription actually corresponds to a certain hexagram or number in the Zhou Yi. And then there is another mystery to these numbers. It's just that Li You still doesn't know what these numbers correspond to.
When Li You threw this question to Professor Qi, Professor Qi laughed and asked Li You to explore it by himself, saying that after Li You found out all the data in "Zhou Yi" corresponding to the cross-section symbols of "Gleaning", he would consider telling Li You more.
Looking at Professor Qi's triumphant appearance, Li You wanted to smash his fist into Professor Qi's nose. He's been admitting it for a long time.
"It's not that the old man won't teach you, but now you don't understand it." Professor Qi said eloquently. Originally, Professor Qi wanted to finish all the secrets at once in one go, but he found that Linglong came close at some point, and immediately changed his mind, and even Li You couldn't continue to listen to it.
Li You looked stunned, and finally Old Man Qi said a lot of secrets on a whim, but this interruption, whether he would say it in the future is a question.
After a while, Li You finally determined that it was impossible to pry anything out of Professor Qi's mouth tonight, and he had to give up in the end. Seeing Mo Liancheng and Shi Guangsheng sitting far away beside a bonfire roasting food, he led Qin Yi over, ready to chat with the two. Although he has been in the same team for the past few days, Mo Liancheng has been caught by Uncle Wu to lead the way, Shi Guangsheng and Mo Liancheng are inseparable, and Li You has not had many opportunities to say a word to the two.
Mo Liancheng, like Shi Guangsheng and Li You, belonged to outsiders in the team, and was a little out of place with the entire team. So when they were stationed in the camp, the two didn't get along very well, and they both lived their own lives on their own.
Seeing Li You coming, Shi Guangsheng greeted Li You with a smile, while Mo Liancheng had a sad face, nodded, and continued to fall into the contemplation of sighing.
Shi Guangsheng saw Li You's surprised look, so he said, "Xiaoyou, don't pay attention to Brother Mo, he has been like this all day." ”
Li You still couldn't help but ask, "Brother Mo, what's wrong with you?" ”
Seeing Li You's concern, Mo Liancheng let out a long sigh again, and only sighed faintly after a while: "I was blinded by eating lard, so I agreed to that Lu Qianqiu to rob the Tang tomb." It doesn't matter if you're here, I've been cheated by me along with the two of you, and if you don't make it this time, our brothers won't be able to go back. ”
Li You's heart moved, and he asked, "Brother Mo, how do you say this?" Although Li You didn't know the details of Mo Liancheng, he also learned a lot of stories about Mo Liancheng's ancestors from Uncle Wu and Professor Qi. It is clear that the ancestor of Mo Liancheng has produced several extremely powerful tomb robbers, and the Jiufeng Chaolong Tomb that he went to on this trip, his ancestors have not only entered the tomb robbery masters, but also come out safely.
Mo Liancheng sighed for a long time, and then said, "Xiaoyou...... The Dragon Tomb of the Nine Phoenix Dynasty is not a friendly place, but actually a fierce place. My ancestors left an instruction that even if they reach the end of the mountain, they should not try their luck there, because there is absolutely no return. ”
Hearing this, Li You's curiosity was aroused, so he asked: "Brother Mo, what is written in the records left by your ancestors, say it and tell us, so we can be mentally prepared." In this way, when we encounter danger, we are more likely to escape. ”
"That's right!" Shi Guangsheng cut a piece of roasted meat into four pieces, divided it into pieces, and said vaguely while gnawing on it.
Mo Liancheng wanted to speak and stopped, as if he was worried. But after all, he still spoke: "It's not that my brother doesn't want to say, but I don't understand many of the records in it. When he said this, a trace of shame appeared on Mo Liancheng's face, and he slowly explained.
It turned out that Mo Liancheng was born in a family of tomb robbers, but the inheritance had been broken in the generation of his great-grandfather Mo Feihu.
It was more than 20 years of the Republic of China, and the young Mo Feihu already had a great reputation in the tomb robbery industry, and because of this, Mo Liancheng was invited by a person named Lu Zhongyan to participate in a tomb robbery when he was in the 35th year of the Republic of China, but there was an accident that time, and Mo Feihu's life and death were unknown, and he never came back. left behind his eight-year-old son, who is Mo Liancheng's grandfather.
Because of Mo Feihu's disappearance, many of the Mo family's ancestral tomb robbing skills have been lost. After Mo Liancheng's grandfather grew up, he also relied on some records handed down by his ancestors to rob tombs, but his skills were too far from Mo Feihu's, and they were not of the same level at all.
After the liberation, Mo Liancheng's grandfather never involved in this business again, and Mo Liancheng's father became a teacher and craftsman, and completely broke off the relationship with the tomb robbery industry. Only when Mo Liancheng inadvertently cleaned up the things left by his ancestors once, did he discover the secret of his ancestors, and later he had the idea of robbing the tomb to make a fortune, and then he was targeted by Lu Qianqiu, and lured him to steal the Tang tomb at a high price, and then things became out of control.
The record left by Mo Liancheng's ancestors was written by Mo Feihu before he set out to rob the tomb in the 25th year of the Republic of China. Before that, the secrets of the family were passed down orally from generation to generation, and no written records were left. It was only because Mo Feihu felt that this trip was dangerous, so he left the location of the ancient tombs accumulated by his ancestors to record to his son, so that his son could have more wealth to survive in this era of war and chaos in the future.
Li You quietly listened to Mo Liancheng's narration. From Professor Qi. In the words of Uncle Wu and Mo Liancheng, he seems to have spelled out a relatively complete story.
