Chapter 13: The Four Beasts
"I don't think there's anything wrong with it, this white tiger doesn't look very powerful with its head held high. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoDo you want to carve a tiger without spirit? "I'm a little annoyed, this guy isn't scaring me by saying this horrible! Anyway, I couldn't avoid it, and I just took advantage of the chaos to escape. Thinking of this, I kicked the giant ding with my foot.
There was a loud "bang" that made everyone agitated, and they pointed their guns at me.
"What do you want to do, stinky boy?" The scar man said fiercely.
"What can I do, of course, find a clue!" We said with our hands spread out.
The scar man grabbed me by the collar, "I'm telling you, don't play tricks on me, or you won't have any good fruit to eat!" ā
"What a man you are! has a fierce face and is so timid. What do you see all the time standing there? Found something useful? I'm looking for clues but you're being framed like this, but it really chills me, otherwise we'll go our separate ways now. ā
"Oh? In that case, what can the little brother see? The old man said with a round of words.
"Smash this giant tripod open and you can find clues." I swear.
"If there is something strange about this tomb, it must be this giant ding, if this triggers the mechanism, we won't be able to eat and walk around."
"I'm afraid of him if I can even handle the zongzi, and if something happens to me, I'll be on my head. Smash! I said without a doubt.
"Hehe, it's unheard of that you, as an archaeologist of the country, should take the initiative to destroy cultural relics. This giant tripod of the Shang and Zhou dynasties has high archaeological value. Aren't you afraid of losing your job when the time comes? The fifth said jokingly.
"That's right, this Ding Ke in the Shang and Zhou dynasties is priceless. As tomb robbers, you don't even want such a valuable thing, so what are you coming to this tomb for? I said meaningfully.
The old man smiled slightly, "You don't have to worry about this, little brother, you just need to take us to the main burial chamber." ā
Then the old man gave the silent man a look. I saw that the man took out an iron hammer, and the handle and the hammer head were poured together with molten iron, and there was not the slightest gap in the splicing. I saw that the man took a deep breath, picked up the hammer and slammed it at the giant ding. There was a "bang" and sparks splashed, and the handle of the hammer was broken in half, and the half that flew out actually grazed my head, and my whole body was frightened.
"I didn't mean to destroy what you have here, even if I wanted to smash it, I should have smashed the tomb robbers! I am a good young man in society, and I often help my grandmother cross the road. If anything, please let me go! "I kept thinking about it in my heart.
After a while, nothing happened. Isn't there anything strange about this burial chamber? I looked around with some disappointment. His grandmother's, this silent guy has so much strength, and such a thick hammer handle can shatter him.
"Boss, the blow just now didn't leave any traces on this tripod." Scar Man said with a frown.
When I looked at it, how could it be so hard, even if the steel was hit so hard, it would leave traces, is this still bronze?
"Old Five, how's it going? Did you find any clues?"
"No, the only valuable clue to this tomb is this giant ding. I didn't find anything on it though. ā
"This burial chamber doesn't look like much. Let's move on! ā
"That's leaving?" Scar asked.
"What? Do you still want to spend the New Year here? ā
He was choked by me for a moment and couldn't speak, and was about to have a seizure when the old man stopped him.
"Let's keep walking!" After the old man finished speaking, the group continued to walk forward.
Not long after, another burial chamber was discovered in front of it. This really surprised us. According to past experience, it takes a long time to encounter such a burial chamber. We cautiously entered this tomb and found that there was also a huge ding in the middle of this tomb. The same is the cloud and thunder pattern, we looked closer, and found that the animal on it has become a red bird.
"How do I feel that the appearance of this Suzaku is as strange as the appearance of that white tiger!" Lao Wu knocked on the giant ding and muttered.
"What's so strange? Tell me about it? I asked.
"I can't tell, it's just the feeling."
"You might as well not say anything about it!" I choked.
Our group continued to walk forward, and after not going far, we found another giant ding. This giant tripod is also a cloud and thunder pattern, but this tripod depicts a vermilion bird, but this vermilion bird also gives people an unnatural feeling. We continued to look for a while, but we didn't find anything useful. We're still moving forward.
It wasn't long before another burial chamber appeared in front of me. This made our brother look at each other, completely unaware of what it meant. Sure enough, in the middle of this tomb is still a giant tripod, and this time the giant tripod is depicted with a green dragon.
"White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Green Dragon. Then the next burial chamber should be Xuanwu. What do you all see? The old man said.
A few of us also frowned, not knowing how to explain the situation in front of us.
"I said, Sixth, why have you been silent since this kid appeared. What the hell is going on? You're squeaking! I remember that your mouth used to be like a cannon box, why haven't you achieved this virtue in a few years? Scar Man said.
"What's the use of what I say? How do I know what's going on? ā
I heard it like I'd heard it from somewhere, but I just couldn't remember it. I've never seen this guy before, and why is his voice so familiar? I looked this man up and down, but I really hadn't seen it.
"Let's move on and see what this is all about." The old man said.
After a while, I really arrived at the tomb with Xuanwu. We went around for a week and didn't find anything, so we kept going. As I walked, there was another burial chamber in front of me.
"The Green Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Xuanwu have all appeared, I see what else is famous in the tomb this time!" Lao Wu said.
As soon as we entered the tomb, we were dumbfounded, and this time there was still a huge dings in the middle of the tomb. And the thing depicted on this giant tripod turned out to be a white tiger.
"Why is the cycle coming back again? What an evil door! I muttered.
"I don't think the tombs will be like this in the future!" The scar man said as he touched his head.
"Then what is the purpose of his doing this, it can't be an idle fart!"
"Didn't you say that the burial chambers were designed according to the Twenty-Four Mountains Law? You should know best! Lao Wu choked.
"Keep going, there must be an end to the road!" I said sloppily.
After a few of us finished speaking, we continued to walk forward, and sure enough, there were still Vermilion Birds, Qinglong, and Xuanwu in front of us, and finally there was the White Tiger.
Seeing this, everyone has lost patience.
"You kid won't lead us down the wrong path, will you!" The scar man said viciously.
I was just about to refute when I suddenly saw something that creeped me out, and my breath became short. Everyone could see the change in my mood. I slowly pointed to the corner of the wall with my hand and said tremblingly, "Isn't that hammer the same one we just broken?" Did any of you just carry it all the time? ā
