Chapter 165: Only God Sees
We looked at the palace lord in amazement, not because of the name of the place he said, he looked as if he was possessed by an evil spirit, and there was nothing where he was pointing, but strangely he looked up at us back and forth.
It seemed that the palace lord was more anxious than us, and the look in his eyes clearly thought that we had a problem, the general took a cigarette in his mouth and reached out to touch the palace lord's forehead: "Is there nothing wrong?" ”
Gong Jue suddenly stared at the smoke at the corner of the general's mouth, a wisp of smoke rose up, I followed Gong Jue's gaze and looked over, and suddenly I was taken aback, there was a red light in those smokes, but as the smoke dissipated, it disappeared immediately.
The palace lord hesitated for a moment, took the cigarette from the corner of the general's mouth, and shook it back and forth in front of us, I was sure that I was not dazzled, but wherever the smoke rose, I could see the fleeting red light.
"Can't you see?" The palace lord frowned, then looked at the cigarette in his hand, and suddenly looked up at us. "Find hay, the more the merrier!"
I didn't know what the palace lord was going to do, but I really wanted to figure out what those looming red lights were, so everyone hurriedly returned to the ground, collected dead branches and grass everywhere, and brought them back to the stone room next to the flying statue that the palace lord had piled up.
Then the palace lord lit these things, and when the fire came up, he asked Tian Ji to take off all the clothes of the corpses outside, drench them with water, and cover them on the fire, and the extinguished dead branches and grass soon rose into smoke, which gradually filled the entire stone room.
At that moment, all of us stood like statues, looking around in shock, in the smoke of the smoke, I finally saw clearly the red light that kept disappearing, not a smear, countless red lights intertwined with each other, I turned my body in a daze, not believing what I saw with my eyes now.
These intertwined red lights converged in the stone chamber into a single painting, and it was a three-dimensional painting, and I saw mountains, rivers, vast deserts, and countless ancient cities located all over the place.
Wusun, Qiuzi, Loulan, Jimo, Xiaowan......
There are also the Tian Shan Mountains and the Kunlun Mountains!
"This ...... This is the land of the Western Regions...... Map! Ling Zhihan said in shock.
This is indeed a map, and it is the most amazing map I have ever seen in my life, the entire Western Regions is presented in this stone room, the panorama of the Western Regions appears all around us in great detail, and I can even clearly see the walls of the ancient country of Loulan and those deserts that are inaccessible.
These three-dimensional maps, composed of red and light interlaced, can only be seen in the smoke.
"Infrared!" Ye Zhiqiu was dumbfounded and looked at the Mitsubishi diamonds inlaid around. "When the sunlight is decomposed by the Mitsubishi mirror, infrared rays will be generated, the design of this stone chamber is not arbitrary, relying on the copper mirror to reflect the sunlight to the sky, and then relying on the irregular distribution of Mitsubishi diamonds on the stone wall after refraction, using the decomposed infrared rays to form a three-dimensional map of the Western Regions, but ......"
Ye Zhiqiu was shocked now far more than seeing the map, she couldn't take her eyes off the palace jue, and she couldn't speak for a long time with her mouth open.
"But what?" Tian Ji asked.
"Infrared is an invisible light source in the sun, and it is impossible for our naked eyes to see infrared......" Ye Zhiqiu asked in surprise as he looked at the palace jue. You...... How do you see that? ”
We need to use the smoke to see the panoramic map of the Western Regions in the stone chamber, and judging from the palace lord's previous reaction, he was the first to see all this, and he saw it completely with the naked eye.
Ye Zhiqiu said that this is absolutely impossible, infrared is a light wave category, the wavelength is larger than our usual visible light, we can see because the reflected light of smoke changes the wavelength of infrared, so we can see.
Everyone is now the same as Ye Zhiqiu, looking at the palace lord in surprise, his expression is dazed, and he is even more surprised than us: "When the light of the dome shines down, I see these patterns and place names, I think you can see it too......"
"Only God can see the Vientiane Palace!" I squirmed my Adam's apple and looked at the palace lord unfamiliarly. "The meaning of the last inscription ......"
"I said a long time ago that only God can see the Vientiane Divine Palace." Tian Ji snatched the words out of place and walked around the palace lord. "Don't you see, you're still a god, a Taoist or a Buddhist?"
"Who do you think I look like?" Gong Jue asked angrily.
"Don't guess, gods are different from mortals, and the meaning of the last sentence should be to say that only certain people can see the map here." I shook my head and frowned. "Even if someone finds this place by mistake, they don't know the secrets in the stone room, even if the people who have been here before have a bronze mirror and crack the mechanism on it at the same time, they will not be able to see it, but ...... But how can you see? ”
Of course the palace lord is not a god, at least I have never seen such an unruly god as him, and I am still curious how the palace lord did it, why he can see a map that normal people can't see.
"That's my abnormality." Gong Jue smiled helplessly, and quickly regained his composure. "Since Ling Xuan left clues in Wuyi Mountain, it is not difficult to see that she hopes that someone will find the Vientiane Divine Palace, but from all indications, these clues may not be left to the descendants of the Ling family, at least even if the people of the Ling family find here, it will be useless."
"Ling Xuan once mentioned in her handwritten biography that she was ordered to explore the land of dragon qi in Kyushu, so speaking of which, someone is instructing Ling Xuan, are these clues left to this person?" Ye Zhiqiu thought about it for a long time and said seriously. "However, Ling Xuan used infrared rays to outline the map, this design is too ingenious, it can be seen that Ling Xuan knows that the map she left behind can be seen, but how can the palace lord?"
"You can't have an eye injury or something, do you?" Tian Ji approached and stared intently at the palace jue.
"You've only had an eye injury." The palace lord glanced at Tian Ji. "Maybe it's just a coincidence, but I feel pretty normal anyway."
"This is also a good thing, no matter why he can see it, fortunately, the palace lord found out, otherwise we would have come for nothing." The general said, looking around. "Presumably this is the map of the exact location of the Vientiane Shrine, and it seems that we have finally found it."
Ye Zhiqiu walked in the stone room, mountains, rivers and ancient cities shuttled on her, she told us that this should be a panoramic map of the Western Regions in the early Tang Dynasty, under a mountain range, we saw a majestic and huge building complex, exactly the same as the design map left by Ling Xuan, that is where the Vientiane Divine Palace is located.
"Pishan, Dongcheng and Minfeng, then this should be ......" Ye Zhiqiu pondered for a moment, and his eyes slowly revealed joy. Khotan, the country of Khotan of the 36 countries of the Western Regions, which is now the Hotan region, happened to be one of the four towns of Anxi in Khotan in the early Tang Dynasty, and there was a large army stationed here at that time. ”
"The Vientiane Shrine is close to Khotan, but it is under a mountain range, and the name is not marked on the map, do you know what mountain range it is?" I asked.
"The ground here is Karakech, which translates to the meaning of ink jade, which belonged to Khotan in the early Tang Dynasty, and was named because of the abundance of ink jade, which just echoes the luminous ink jade inlaid behind the bronze mirror." Ye Zhiqiu said unhurriedly, pointing to the map outlined by infrared. "And Karakash faces Khotan across the river in the east, borders the Gobi and Pishan in the west, enters the Taklamakan Desert in the north, and reaches the northern foot of the Karakoram Mountains in the south, and the mountain range continues to be the prestigious Red and White Mountain!"
"How could such a large complex as the Vientiane Shrine choose to be built under the Red and White Mountain?" Tian Ji asked curiously.
"But there are really traces to follow, in the early Tang Dynasty, Hongbai Mountain was the transportation hub of the north and south, east and west, the ancient Silk Road South Road passed through this, at that time Hongbai Mountain was called the sacred mountain, and in the Western Regions culture, this mountain was called the holy mountain." Ye Zhiqiu said.
"That's supposed to be this place." The general patted the dust off his body. "Finally, the emperor has lived up to his wishes, and now the shopkeeper is saved."
"Can I pry then?" Tian Ji is eager to try it with a probe shovel.
He was still thinking about the priceless diamonds in the stone room, anyway, the whereabouts of the Vientiane Divine Palace had been found, and it always felt inappropriate to keep these things, I just wanted to nod, and I saw Ye Zhiqiu once again snatch the probe shovel in Tian Ji's hand.
"Can you think of a good idea, do you know the importance of this stone chamber, more than a thousand years ago, the ancients relied on the diamond Mitsubishi mirror to decompose infrared rays, and used to construct a map of the body, this is completely a sensational archaeological discovery, you pry any piece is like destroying a miracle thousands of years ago, can you afford this crime?"
"If I can afford it, I will have a head, and it doesn't belong to me now anyway." Tian Ji nodded disapprovingly.
"Ling Xuan left the Vientiane Divine Palace, in your eyes, it may be a ruin, but since it is so cleverly hidden, presumably Ling Xuan doesn't want people to know, until now we don't know what exactly is in the Vientiane Divine Palace, I'm afraid it's not right to keep these things, so let him destroy them." I looked at Ye Zhiqiu and said.
"Du is not good at stubble, what he wants to find is not so simple, the location of the Vientiane Divine Palace is the last bargaining chip, only we know that it is the safest." The palace lord also nodded in agreement.
"Destroy, you said it easily, forget it, play the piano to the cow, you don't know the importance of this place at all." Ye Zhiqiu said as he turned around and took the bronze mirror from Feitian's hand. "This site doesn't mean that whoever finds it belongs to whom, this should be ......"
Click!
Before Ye Zhiqiu finished speaking, there was a sound of shattering above our heads, at first it was still a sound, and gradually there was a sound of cracking one after another in the entire stone room, and those Mitsubishi diamonds that were still intact before suddenly began to crumble into fine powder, fluttering and falling in the light.
"Feitian has a mechanism in his hand, once the bronze mirror is taken down here, it will be destroyed, it seems that Ling Xuan has already designed it for a rainy day." Gong Jue laughed as he spoke, gloating and looking at Ye Zhiqiu. "You destroyed it with your own hands, don't blame us this time."
Ye Zhiqiu looked at the stone room that was destroyed in an instant, his face was full of regret and helplessness at a loss, it was rare to see her look so lost, I couldn't cry and laugh next to me, and was about to comfort her for a few words, when suddenly the flying statue in the middle also fell apart, and then the entire stone room began to shake violently and sink.
I was shocked, it seemed that Ling Xuan not only wanted to destroy the map here, but even the entire stone chamber was going to be destroyed cleanly, I shouted loudly for the others to immediately return to the ground, the entire stone chamber completely collapsed, and the yellow sand around it flowed in and disappeared in a moment.
Ye Zhiqiu sat on the ground, looking like he hadn't reacted yet, as if he had lost a treasure at his fingertips, Gong Jue squatted next to her, and asked with a smile while patting the sand on his body: "Destroying cultural relics is a felony, you also know a few of us, in Song Wenjie's words, it is not enough to die once, you are spending a lot of money today, and you will destroy such precious cultural relics by yourself, so what kind of crime should you count?" ”
"You're enough." I pushed away the yellow sand on Ye Zhiqiu's body and smiled and was relieved. "I'm lucky, I lost my life, don't take it too seriously, the things below you have no fate."
Ye Zhiqiu was motionless and stupid and did not react, and she was still holding the bronze mirror that she had taken down tightly in her hand.
"By the way, you have to keep this thing, you should keep a thought, and you won't come here in vain." The palace lord poked his head over again, and the smile on his face was bright.
I pushed Gong Jue's head over, and saw that Ye Zhiqiu still had no reaction, it is estimated that his soul fell into the stone room, and Tian Ji had the same expression as her, and I almost didn't laugh out loud when I saw that he wanted to cry without tears.
