Chapter 467: Skull Stone
And Hongmei's experience is similar to Xiao Lei's - when she passes through the magnifying glass and sees the particles in the shape of a skull in the stone, she also loses her memory.
In that stone, there are particles in the shape of a skull? It's so weird, I can't imagine that there are such crystals in the world.
My cousin suddenly stood up and said anxiously, "Let's go, let's get that stone back quickly."
Before we could react, he had already walked to the door, and everyone hurriedly followed my cousin and walked towards the crater behind.
At this time, the sun has come out, the early autumn breeze is cool and pleasant, the sky is blue and high, and the air is fresh and sweet, this qiē makes people feel energetic, under this bright sunshine, those dark mysteries seem so unreal, like an illusory dream.
The sunlight shines through the treetops and also sprinkles in the crater, which seems so ordinary and calm, who can believe that there are so many incomprehensible mysteries hidden here.
What happened next shocked us once again - the stone we were looking for had mysteriously disappeared, and even the pool of blood next to the stone was gone!
Everyone stood there stunned.
Last night, when we were looking for Xiao Lei and Hongmei, the stone was still there, and it must have been moved after that, but why did they do it?
"That stone is in the crater, there should still be a remnant of it, quick, let's go to the crater and have a look", my cousin hurriedly said, and we immediately went to the crater again, but to our surprise, the rest of the stone was gone!
It turned out that the location of the stone seemed to have been cleaned, and there was no trace of the stone anymore.
"That stone must be hiding some important secrets, and for those secrets, some people are very worried that we will find out, so this stone is removed."
The madman six muttered to himself. But my cousin didn't speak, his face was unusually strict, we guessed that for this kind of stone, my cousin must know more than us, he must have suddenly thought of something, so he was in a hurry to find this stone, and the mysterious disappearance of the stone obviously made him very lost, my cousin looked into the distance, sighed long, and said helplessly: "It seems that it's still a step too late, let's go back." ”
Everyone silently returned to Mr. Chen's house.
My cousin sat there, still immersed in his own thoughts, and everyone was afraid of disturbing him, so they did not speak, and the room was silent.
"Brother Wang, what's going on with that stone? Do you already know something? Mr. Chen asked first.
Mr. Chen's question made his cousin jump out of his thoughts, he nodded and said: "Yes, when I heard Xiao Lei say that the stone is composed of skull-like particles, I suddenly thought that it should be the 'skull stone' recorded in history, an incomparably mysterious stone." ”
At this time, Kenya couldn't help but interrupt her cousin and said: "It is said that the shape of the particles in it is a bit like a skeleton, and there are many such coincidences in nature, compared to the shape of a certain flower, it will be similar to a monkey's head, and the shape of a certain mountain peak is sometimes very similar to a human or the like, there are many such examples."
What Kenya said also makes sense, for example, the "monkey face flower" flower is very similar to the face of a monkey, which is indeed not uncommon in nature, and the shape of the particles in the stone also happens to be a bit similar to a skeleton, which is really nothing special from this point alone.
The cousin smiled slightly: "Kenya is right, in terms of the shape of the grains inside, it looks like a skeleton, maybe it is a coincidence of nature, but don't forget, even regardless of the shape of the grains, this stone is indeed weird enough - it can actually give birth to eggs, and it is very likely." Monkey eagle's egg, in addition to the fact that it can be turned into a dynamite when it is poured with alcohol, not to mention that it can appear in the sunlight, and the combination of these factors makes that stone very special. ”
"Has this kind of stone ever been recorded in history? So how is it written? "Maniac Six is obviously interested in the history of this stone.
My cousin continued: "Yes, there are records in history, have you noticed, many strange things we have encountered have actually appeared in history, and some have detailed records, and it is these historical records that allow us to have a deeper understanding of the things themselves, so as to find a way to deal with them, which is also a very important way to study things." ”
My cousin is worthy of being a researcher, and he is so logical in his speech, and he is so good at summarizing, but we have to admit that the truth is indeed as my cousin said, and it is through the relevant historical records that we have found an unexpected solution. And these historical records, some rely on my cousin, some rely on the madman Liu, and even rely on the old man Ouyang and sue us, it is their profound knowledge and in-depth understanding of many things that have allowed us to make breakthroughs again and again.
Of course, Crazy Six felt more deeply about one point, and after listening to his cousin's words, he nodded again and again with deep feelings. After this analysis and summary, my cousin finally got to the point:
"The record of the 'skull stone' is also related to the Ming Dynasty vassal king Zhu Leting.
At that time, the Ming Dynasty was already in turmoil, although Zhu Leting did not have any eloquence, but he was not a straw bag who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, he had eyes and ears all over the country, and always paid attention to the changes in the situation, therefore, he had a very clear understanding of the development of the shape at that time, according to the summarized information, Zhu Leting has clearly felt that the world of their Zhu family will end soon.
On the surface, he is still obsessed with enjoying all kinds of rare birds and birds, but secretly, he began to secretly plan his own way back, because he knew that with his royal status, if the Zhu family was lost, he would die without a place to bury.
One day, one of his advisors named Xuan Heng brought Zhu Lotting a stone - and it was an ordinary looking stone, Zhu Lotting was very surprised at that time, and he didn't understand why Xuan Heng suddenly brought a stone.
Xuan Heng smiled mysteriously and said that the stone he brought was called 'Skeleton Stone', and inside the stone, there were particles shaped like skeletons, Zhu Lotting felt very curious when he heard it, and immediately asked people to take out the magnifying glass given to him by the Western missionary, and he carefully observed the stone with the magnifying glass, and sure enough, he found that as Xuan Heng said, inside the stone, there were particles in the shape of a skull.
But for some reason, after Zhu Lotting arrived the next day, it suddenly occurred that yesterday's events were very strange - after he saw clearly the skull-shaped particles in the stone, it seemed that his memory had been interrupted, and what happened after that could not be recalled at all.
What was even more strange was that the servant next to him said that he had been normal yesterday - even after observing the stone with a magnifying glass, there was no other abnormality, and he still talked and chatted as usual.
This shocked Zhu Leting even more, if he fainted after looking at the stone with a magnifying glass, it is understandable that he lost his memory, since his behavior is still normal, how can he not remember it at all?
Could it be that Xuan Heng wanted to harm him? But if you think about it carefully, it's impossible, Xuan Heng is his most powerful and trusted strategist, if he really wants to harm himself, there are many opportunities to start, and he doesn't need to use this method, so what's going on? The more Zhu Loting thought about it, the more confused he became, so he immediately summoned Xuan Heng to see him.
What surprised Zhu Lotting even more was that when Xuan Heng came to see him, there was nothing abnormal in his appearance, it was exactly the same as usual, when Zhu Lotting just wanted to ask him about yesterday's strange things, Xuan Heng asked Zhu Lenting to retreat first, because he had something very important to say.
After Zhu Leting asked everyone to go out according to what Xuan Heng said, Xuan Heng suddenly knelt in front of Zhu Leting, crying bitterly, Zhu Leting was stunned for a moment, he didn't know why Xuan Heng was suddenly like this.
Xuan Heng cried and explained that Zhu Leting was as kind to him as a mountain, and he was willing to repay him with death, seeing that the Ming Dynasty was crumbling, and Zhu Lotting was also facing the danger of being slaughtered, so he thought of a way to liberate Zhu Lotting, but this 'method of liberation', because it was too weird, if he said it directly, Zhu Lotting would definitely not believe it, so Xuan Heng used the method of yesterday in desperation, so that after Zhu Lotting experienced the weirdness himself, he could believe his weird escape plan.
After hearing this, Zhu Leting was very moved, and he couldn't imagine that his advisers would take such pains to escape the scourge of killing, and he not only shed tears when he thought about his situation.
After the two cried for a while, Zhu Leting asked in detail about Xuan Heng's escape plan, and when Xuan Heng told him about his plan, Zhu Lotting was dumbfounded, because that kind of plan was indeed too weird, it seemed to be a fantasy, and it was unbelievable.
As for what that escape plan was, the history books did not record it in detail, but it was related to the 'skull stone'. ”
After my cousin said this, everyone thought of Zhu Leting's strange escape - he disappeared in the crater with a strange bird, and the "skull stone" really appeared in the crater, but that "skull stone", in addition to the strange functions we know, is there any other secret? In addition, what is this "skull stone", and why does it have so many strange functions?
And the kind of historical record that my cousin said does not provide much information.
For some reason, Crazy Six didn't seem to pay attention to what his cousin said, and didn't continue the topic of "skull stones", but stared at the two "monkey eagles".
"Do you see the difference between these two 'monkey eagles'?" , Crazy Six suddenly asked, and we were still thinking about the "Skull Stone", he asked such a sentence without a head, which made everyone stunned for a moment, not knowing why he suddenly asked this question.
However, after he said this, everyone looked over to the two "monkey eagles".
These two "monkey eagles" are too similar, the size, feather color, head size and facial features are almost identical, if it weren't for the infrared eyes of one of them, they couldn't be distinguished from the appearance at all.
Old man Ouyang smiled and said: "I have been with the 'monkey eagle' for the longest time, it seems that I am also the most sensitive to their appearance, this one of mine and Mr. Chen's one, of course, there is a difference in appearance, you see, Mr. Chen's head, there are a few green feathers, and mine does not." ”
