Chapter 19: The Elder Scrolls
"This man is still an excellent painter, and at the last moment before he was buried alive, he painted the last work of his life, oh!"
However, without waiting for Gao Tianxin to study carefully, Renault came out of nowhere, pretending to be amazed and said loudly.
He shouted out in this voice, and Gao Tianxin couldn't study it carefully in the corner, so he could only share it for everyone to study.
"This is the flower on the other side, great, God bless, we are indeed the chosen ones!"
"These lines seem to have an allegorical meaning, not like they are indiscriminately depicted......"
"Indeed, this is Sanskrit, which means - high in the desert, there is a light in the sky!"
The three stinkers beat Zhuge Liang, not to mention that all the leaders present were leaders in this industry, and in the gossip, part of the truth was restored.
Nine out of ten of these corpses were the craftsmen and painters who dug the Mogao Grottoes, and Li Yuanhao, the king of Western Xia, used them to hide the "key" of the flowers on the other side, and then killed them and buried them alive on the spot, which also explains why they were hastily buried here, and of course these unjust dead people tried their best to leave clues.
Shirley Yang was very excited: "This is really lucky, if we hadn't escaped the storm, how could we have found the bodies of these craftsmen so coincidentally, the heavens are sheltering us, in order to strengthen our faith, deliberately brought us here." ”
Gao Tianxin secretly sighed, this is like a gambler who is addicted to gambling, bent on winning or recouping his capital, so even if he falls hard, he will feel: Oh, isn't this God reminding me that the next one should be bought big?
In fact, it is all a psychological effect, and what really needs to be paid attention to is whether the legendary artifact of the other side flower exists?
Anyway, Gao Tianxin played with the ancient box before, and secretly let A-Ning unlock the lock of the meridian chain buckle. I found that the image of the monster that had absorbed the melting of the dream wheel before appeared inside......
The clues on the third layer of Inception are bound to be in this flower on the other side!
Even, the flower on the other side is the projection incarnation of the monster?
However, in the information consulted by Shirley Yang, the other side flower is a kind of divine flower that can increase supreme wisdom, which is more magical than in the movie, and even the legend says that Zhu Di and Li Yuanhao once relied on the other side flower to ascend to the throne.
It's really going to be that good. This flower has long been passed on to their descendants as a symbol more important than the jade seal of the country, but in essence, it is not among Li Yuanhao's descendants, the emperor after Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di in the Ming Dynasty......
"Sir, have you forgotten what you told me? The most important thing in our line of work is to have dreams! ”
Unexpectedly, Gao Tianxin's sneering expression was keenly noticed by A-Ning, and the little girl quit, and immediately clenched her little fists and swore an oath.
Gao Tianxin smiled dumbly, touched her little head, and felt that this child looked like a little fairy dragon after entering the third layer of dreams. It's so flattering.
However, compared to the little fairy dragon who is better at eating, drinking and having fun, A-Ning's professionalism is like that of a veteran driver for many years, and in order to prove it, she pushed her hands around sharply on the small gold piece on the meridian chain buckle.
After a while, a different pattern gradually appeared, to be precise, a pair of bare upper bodies, long skirts and bare feet. Behind both arms, there are flying celestial girls with streamers flying.
Due to the backdrop of colorful clouds, the goddess dances lightly. Calm and soothing, the demeanor is chic, holding a round of red sun, raised upward, and the exquisite picture has a kind of sacred beauty.
Immediately, she handed over the ancient box. Signal to open.
Gao Tianxin frowned, a little puzzled, how could he suddenly unravel the method of unlocking it when he didn't really have it before?
Could it be ......
Sure enough, when he took the ancient box. The thumb grabbed the seam and was about to pull it away, when suddenly his whole body shook, and he was pushed away by a huge force for no reason.
If it weren't for the timely operation of the internal qi in the body, the sudden surge of electricity would make Gao Tianxin suffer a big loss, witnessing this scene, A-Ning was also shocked, and hurriedly rushed over and hugged his legs: "Mr. Sir, are you okay, it's all my fault!" ”
"Interesting!" Gao Tianxin waved his hand disappreciatively, and the pit father child didn't even seem to have a problem in this regard.
Just like there are pseudo-tombs outside the real tombs of emperors in previous dynasties, the way to crack this ancient box is actually true and false, making it miraculous!
However, Ah Ning wanted to prove that the mystery of the flower on the other side had achieved his goal, and his fingers gently stroked the small gold piece on the lid of the box, calming down and collecting the feelings from his fingertips.
It turns out that these gold pieces are not made of the imaginary gold, and another unknown metal is very smooth to the touch, but when you feel it closely, there are subtle bumps in the places where there is no pattern.
Seeing that Gao Tianxin really had nothing to do, Ah Ning also breathed a sigh of relief, and explained vividly: "This casting method is called Shadow Floating Incense, which is an incomprehensible mystery for thousands of years, and it is said that it can be traced back to the Shang and Zhou dynasties and even more ancient times, those craftsmen can cast an unusually beautiful pattern on the seemingly smooth bronze, and the Shadow Floating Fragrance is synonymous with rare and rare!" ”
Gao Tianxin was illiterate in this regard, and listening to her description, he couldn't help but be curious.
For example, a bronze jue of the Shang Dynasty looks unremarkable, but as soon as the wine is poured, a dragon with teeth and claws will appear in the wall of the cup, or a smooth copper mirror, but when it shines in the sun, it will display words on the wall.
The appearance of these strange things is not a cultivation world like the Romance of the Gods, but a world where only ordinary people appear!
From a scientific point of view, it can only be said that the whole body of the metal is hot during the casting process, but in the process of natural cooling, the metal will shrink slightly, thus forming cracks that are difficult to see with the naked eye.
But the question is, how did the craftsmen know that metal would shrink and use this natural phenomenon to create beautiful patterns that fit their minds?
Until now, the shrinkage ratio of various metals has not been calculated, let alone the various patterns cast at will, and the so-called science cannot explain it at all.
In fact, modern people say that the people who believed in ghosts and gods in ancient times are superstitious, and thus believe in science, and perhaps thousands of years from now, human beings will prove something that we cannot understand at the moment in a new way that we cannot understand at present.
At that time, they would naturally say that "science" was superstitious research, and the way of heaven was good for reincarnation~~
While he was thinking about it, an annoying voice interjected again: "And these unknown metal pieces are more intelligent than any shadow floating incense, and under different temperature differences, small cracks on the surface will expand or contract to varying degrees. Forming different patterns, ah, how wonderful! ”
Without looking back, one could imagine Renault's disgusting smug face, and his face immediately leaned over and said with a smile: "When the opener thinks he has finally put together the pattern." When you can untie the box, you actually spell out the wrong pattern, and you are ******** by electricity, Master Hu, do you say yes? ”
Gao Tianxin smiled: "Thanks to Jiyan!" ”
Renault's expression froze, and anger immediately came to his face, but he obviously had some concerns about "Hu Bayi", who was the protagonist of the plot, and nodded with a smile. Turn around and go.
Gao Tianxin didn't take this guy to heart at all, but continued to think about the previous question, maybe the invasion of space into the real world has touched every realm in addition to the previously mentioned religious belief imagination wings......
The other side of the flower, there is really a need to find out!
At this point, this tomb robbery treasure hunt has finally been given a different meaning, and this place is a place to avoid storms. It's already very close to the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, so take a break. Seeing that the camels were almost rested, the group hit the road again.
This time it was unobstructed and arrived quickly.
The scale of the Mogao Grottoes is extremely large, there are no less than seven or eight hundred caves carved out of the mountain wall, and these caves are divided into two areas, the north and the south, and the south area is the main body. It was originally a place for monks to visit and worship the Buddha, and the north area is a living area, a place where monks practice, live and bury after death.
Originally, there was a wooden temple outside the cave, and there were corridors and other connected plank roads, but it was only after thousands of years of wind and rain. Most of them have collapsed, and the Buddhist halls that used to be full of fireworks now look shabby like a pauper's cave, which makes people sigh.
When Gao Tianxin and his entourage approached, a person dressed as a Taoist priest actually came out, with a yellow face and thin muscles, a navy blue Taoist robe full of patches, and a burden in both hands, which was presented to Shirley Yang in exchange for a bag of silver.
It's too easy to buy.
In this era, how many national treasures are flowing abroad through this means!
To get back to the point, the baggage is full of key information, but it turned out that six years ago, in order to open up the cave and build a Taoist temple, someone accidentally discovered a secret cave in the Mogao Grottoes.
The secret cave was extremely deep and long, and the cave was covered with gold and inlaid with precious stones, and it was immediately robbed, almost digging three feet into the ground, and all the valuable treasures were dug away......
Fortunately, because of this, there are also some murals in the secret cave that have been copied and passed out, and later Shirley Yang got the ancient box, and visited the nobles in the Qing Dynasty, rummaging through the secret files, only to inadvertently find that the murals and the patterns in the ancient box are one by one, and then judge the key to open the gold box, and nine times out of ten it is hidden in the secret cave.
Since then, Shirley Yang has also been considered a dagger: "Mr. Hu, I know that you still have many unanswered questions in your heart, but if you have 'read' this golden volume, you will know everything. ”
After speaking, he took out a golden scroll and handed it to Gao Tianxin.
Gao Tianxin's eyes swept away, the appearance of the golden book was simple, like a roll of bamboo slips, but each one was made of gold, and the rope kneaded by gold and silver filaments was threaded.
There is a lesson from the past of the ancient box, Gao Tianxin slowly spread out his internal qi, this "world" has no so-called internal strength, only a breath of national art, and at the same time can more or less resist it.
But this time, the other party stopped following the routine.
What caught my eye was first a blank, and then the heavens and the earth changed sharply, looking around, where was there any Shirley Yang, where was there any Mogao Grottoes, and even Gao Tianxin's own body had disappeared.
All things are silent, and all beings are glorious!
After the ultimate brilliance, a sudden deafening horn sound sounded in the distance!
At first, it was still far away, but gradually it became clearer and clearer, and the sound of thousands of troops and horses shouting together was like a violent thunder, beating the ear drum one by one.
At this moment, even Gao Tianxin couldn't help but be in a trance, and when he was down-to-earth, he was already on the battlefield, tens of thousands of military horses fought each other, shouting and killing shook the heavens and the earth, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and corpses were everywhere.
Soon, one of the armies began to fail, and it was already showing signs of defeat.
Suddenly, a barbarian general wearing a bear skin stood on a high slope holding an ancient box and closed his eyes in contemplation, and when he raised his head, Gao Tianxin couldn't help but show a thoughtful look.
Because the barbarian general's eyes were red, and his eyebrows were full of murderous aura, he pulled out the golden arrow, and the Dao order was issued, and after the general received the order, he shook the banner according to the instructions.
As the god of war is alive, all kinds of unbelievable tactics are displayed with great subtlety, and in just a moment, the army that is at the bottom of the battlefield is suddenly divided and outflanked, and the more it fights, the more courageous it becomes, and the other army is beaten to the ground, cheering and thundering, and it is incomprehensible.
The surrounding scenery suddenly changed again.
A middle-aged man dressed as a prince walked forward step by step with an ancient box in his hand, and in front of him, it was the Mogao Grottoes!
The man's face was full of melancholy, for his army had been surrounded by the Great Legions sent by the Emperor, and the remaining troops, like a drop in the bucket, could not help the besieged city......
The disparity between the power of the enemy and the enemy is huge, and there is no hope for this rebellion and his future!
But when he came out of the Mogao Grottoes, his hesitant expression was swept away, and his face was resolute and calm, as if the great difficulties could be solved in a few hands.
All his subordinates were overjoyed, but Gao Tianxin found that this person's eyes were as black as paint, and they were as blood-red and terrifying as a barbarian general......
Countless fragments followed, and then there was an infinite darkness all around!
The scenery in front of him changed, and suddenly returned to the Mogao Grottoes, leaving only Shirley Yang's faint voice like the sky, if in the ear: "Do you feel the great power of this soul wandering too void?" ”
"Rather than being a golden book, it's more appropriate to name it the Elder Scrolls~~" Gao Tianxin breathed a long sigh of relief, pretending to be in disbelief when ordinary people encountered this situation, and said in a trembling voice: "Who are they?" ”
Shirley Yang's eyes were bright: "I don't know if you and I see the same, but the two I saw are Li Yuanhao, the king of Western Xia, and Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty. ”
Next, a number of famous and surnamed main characters circulated the golden book, and they all showed extremely fanatical expressions and became unsuspicious.
There was even an impatient urge in the crowd to go to the secret cave immediately, open the key, and experience for yourself the great wisdom that can understand all the causes and effects in the world......
However, just before a group of people came to the secret cave, they began to explore the environment and prepare to go down the cave, and the accident happened! (To be continued.) )
