539. Just wait for the doorbell to ring
Xia Dongyi didn't say anything anymore and looked at me quietly. His eyes are pitch black, his gaze is like a saw, I don't know why, if you look at him twice, you will feel ominous.
What he told us is the truth that we have been investigating for so long and want to find out, and this is roughly the case.
After Xia Dongyi finished speaking, he slowly raised his head to look at the clock on the wall, then looked at the dark sky outside the window, got up and went to the bathroom, came back and sat down, looked at me, looked at Li Xu, looked at Xiaohai, and finally looked at his daughter.
Since talking about part of Yu Tianguang's situation, Li Xu's whole person was immersed in an extremely heavy and tragic emotion, her eyes were always fierce, until Xia Dongyi stopped, she showed an expression like waking up from a dream, groping for cigarettes and lighters, and smoked them by herself, silently, without asking questions, as if there was no one around, and we were all air.
Xiaohai was always sad and angry.
Xia Xiaoyu was trembling to capture Xiaohai's emotional changes, so as not to let her lose control like just now, and she had to ask for her father's life on the spot.
I sat quietly and listened the whole time, occasionally interjecting to ask a few questions, and occasionally glancing out of the corner of my eye at Su Mosen, who was tied up like a brown and thrown against the wall, I don't think anyone could see that I had made the final decision in my mind, just waiting for the doorbell to ring.
Everyone was silent, and the air was a little stagnant, and it was uncomfortable to suffocate people, so I opened my mouth to break it, wanting to know more.
I asked Xia Dongyi if he knew the situation inside the tomb of King Jin Jue,
He replied that the Hall of Eternal Life was a very small part of the tomb of King Jin Jue, he had only stayed in the Hall of Eternal Life, and the range of activities was smaller, and he had not entered the place where King Jin Jue and his nine thousand dead soldiers were really buried, but he had seen some text descriptions and illustrations from the classics left by his ancestors, in fact, it was said that only a few big masters and two masters of the Zuding family were eligible to enter the main tomb, and three special tablet keys were required to enter there, one was the tablet of the ancestors of the Qi family, one was the tablet of the ancestors of the Yin family, and the other was the tablet of the ancestors of the Xiu family. The Xia family is not within the quota set by the ancestors, and even the big boss is not qualified to enter the main tomb.
Xia Dongyi told me the information he had seen in the classics, and the description of the main burial chamber was almost the same as the nightmare I had that day, including the opening of the mechanism.
So I believe that either I had been in the main burial chamber in the past, or I had seen the relevant words and pictures, or someone had told me in detail, which is why it was so clear and accurate to conjure up my dreams one day decades later.
I remembered the old man with white hair and white beard who sat in front of the coffin in that nightmare, and I remember his eyes looking at me with kindness and sadness, and no malice at all.
So I carefully described the old man's appearance to Xia Dongyi and asked him if there was such a person in the Hall of Eternal Life.
Xia Dongyi's mechanical and emotionless face showed a look of surprise and confusion for the first time after listening to my question.
The answer is obvious.
But Xia Dongyi didn't answer me directly, but looked at me carefully with a frown, with an incredible expression: "Impossible, even if you have seen it, you shouldn't remember it." ”
I asked him who it was.
He hesitated for half a minute before giving a formal answer.
He said, "It's your great-grandfather." Qi Jingtian. Before Su Mosen and Qi Shangwu mutinied, he was the ruler of that generation, Qi Shangwu killed his elder brother Qi Mu, also known as your grandfather, and then imprisoned your great-grandfather in the ear chamber of a certain side tomb of King Jin Jue, chained with iron chains. Everyone knows this, but few people know exactly which ear chamber they are being imprisoned in and whether they are still alive. ”
After finishing speaking, he shook his head slowly: "When you and your brother were born, Qi Jingtian had been imprisoned for many years, how could you have seen it." ”
I said, "Yes, and certainly in the place where he was imprisoned, and in my dream I saw his hands and feet chained with thick chains." ”
Xia Dongyi thought about it, his face returned to his previous appearance, without any temperature and emotion, and said: "Probably Xiu Chang'an or Chen Jinghong, who took you to the stone room to see it, although those people followed Su Mosen with all their hearts, they still disagreed with some of his practices, not to mention that Qi Jingtian is a benevolent lord, and he has never treated anyone badly, they remember their kindness, and it is also appropriate to take their great-granddaughter to see." In terms of blood, the power of the Qi family should be passed from his eldest son who was killed to your father and then to your brother to wake up, you are the descendants of the heirs of Jin Jue who were left by King Jin Jue to run the '娂' team. ”
That's right, we are born of the green calyx and a surviving heir of the Qi family, and the Qi family is the bloodline of the King of Jinjue, so of course we are too.
I looked down at the bracelet on my left wrist, there was a strange symbol engraved on the inside, Uncle Xiu said it was my birthday, the day he gave it to me, I asked him why his birthday was not a number, but such a strange symbol, and he said because I was a princess.
Because I'm a princess.
I'm a princess.
It turns out that I really am a princess.
It's a pity that it's a ridiculous, funny, and illogical princess in distress, because according to the big plan, King Jin Jue is the real emperor, he is waiting for the resurrection, and although the Qi family who guards his tomb is his heir, he will never be a king and cannot become a king. I, the so-called princess, is just one of the most inconspicuous descendants of King Yunyun of Jinjue, which is almost negligible.
It's funny, but I can't laugh.
I asked Xia Dongyi if it was true about King Jin Jue and his nine thousand dead soldiers waiting to be resurrected and the "Golden Jue Ghost Order".
He said it was true.
The method of preserving the soul in the body was already in place long before the Qin unified China: a special metal mixture was infused with the blood of living people.
It was a very painful process, because as soon as a person dies, the soul will quickly dissipate, so it must be completed before death, and the ancients called this amazing technique "soul sealing technique". In addition to King Jin Jue himself and his 9,000 dead soldiers, there are many, many people who died later, all major families, as long as they master a certain amount of knowledge or technology, and those who can contribute to the great cause of King Jin Jue after being resurrected in the future, will be sent to the tomb to be buried with "spirit sealing technique" before they die.
The tomb of King Jin Jue is not a tomb, but a city, or a cave country in the mountains, there are many layers, the area is also extremely wide, the road longitudinal mold is staggered and stretches for many miles, the legend "Rainbow Waterfall in the Pegasus Peak, falling through the life and death of the king of Hades" The "Pegasus Peak" is only one of the nine exits of the tomb of the King of Jinjue, and it is called the "immortal country" in the "Northern Hooligan Compendium".
Xia Dongyi said that the metal has its own set of magical metabolic functions, and to use an analogy, it can deceive people's souls, so that the soul mistakenly thinks that the body is still alive and will not dissipate.
After seeing so many weird and terrifying things, these don't stir up any changes in my mood, but they just add a note to the previous investigation.
What I want to know most now is whether the ghost order that Yin Saburo took out from the tomb of King Jin Jue five years ago is now in the hands of the Qi family.
Xia Dongyi said that he was not sure, this line has never followed, and it is completely unclear.
I bit my lip and asked him what the so-called "Golden Trick Ghost Order" was.
He replied that the so-called "Golden Ghost Order" was not the token that people imagined, it was just what it was called.
In fact, "Jin Jue Ghost Order" is a kind of edible spice called "Dragon Dripping Water", extremely rare, very noble, as long as you eat a little, the whole person will diffuse a light and good smell of body fragrance for life, and with the blood inheritance to offspring, it is contained in a very delicate gold box, the classics record, Jin Jue King was buried when he held it in his hand, and the external force moved to trigger the mechanism.
We already know about the organ, and the eye that Yin Saburo lost was given by the poison needle.
What I care about is the Ghost Order itself.
If it is a spice, that is, it is a smell trigger, as early as a long, long time ago, when King Jin Jue was buried, the people at that time not only mastered the "spirit sealing technique", but also mastered the technique of using smell to trigger memory, thoughts and loyalty, and after the resurrection of the nine thousand dead soldiers, they will be completely involuntary to the person who emits this smell on their bodies, just like the "parasite" in the underground tomb of Chenjiawu will be controlled by the smell to kill people.
But Xia Dongyi did not talk about the reason why the Qi family forced Yin Saburo to steal the "Golden Jue Ghost Order".
I don't think he knew the ultimate reason at all.
But I already know.
The moment I found out that Su Mosen was going to resurrect her granddaughter with my body in the bathtub in the dungeon of Beipaigou, I had already gradually understood the conspiracy "above".
They want to seize power.
They want to change the sky.
They are crazy, but they are crazy, they are very methodical, they are very ambitious, and they are very likely to be realized.
It's a pity that Xia Dongyi has investigated for so many years and arranged such a huge situation, but he didn't see through the most fundamental conspiracy of the Qi family.
He thought that it was because of the massacre in 1937 that there were too many soldiers, and the Qi family wanted to enter the tomb of King Jin Jue to get the "Dragon Dripping Water" spice, and then resurrect the nine thousand dead to replenish the strength of the Hall of Eternal Life, because cultivating a group of absolutely loyal "Black Dead" requires a first-class hypnotic master's operational awareness, and it will take at least fifteen years. According to his understanding, the original finished "Black Dead" suffered heavy losses in the massacre, and the part that escaped also changed their thinking because they left the special environment of the Hall of Eternal Life, and seemed to be more inclined to live a civilian life than to be manipulated by the Qi family, so they needed to resurrect those dead soldiers to replenish this part of their strength.
That's his guess.
I shook my head heavily, slowly, and stagnantly, still feeling very surprised in my heart, he had planned such a big game, but he didn't see through the Qi family's ultimate conspiracy.
I really didn't expect it.
I asked Xia Dongyi if he knew of a person named Dai Wenjing.
He nodded, "Yes." ”
