Chapter 451: Visitors from the Sky
In the not-so-dimly lit chamber, the flames of the torches danced regularly.
It's not a lot of space, and the air seems to be getting thinner.
After Ying Zheng carefully packed the tortoise shell and beast bones in the bronze box, he asked the little beast to take the tip of the bamboo shoot to see if there was anything abnormal outside.
After packing his bags and handing them to Xu Fu, Ying Zheng left the secret room with a torch.
The young beast is jogging against the wall to see if anything has changed.
The bamboo shoots are looking around, watching the possible changes in the temple of the Queen Mother of the West.
After making sure that no other mechanism had been touched again, the little year beast and the bamboo shoot tip returned to Yingzheng's side.
"It's been a busy day, why don't you stay in Xiwang Pavilion for a night, and leave tomorrow." The tip of the bamboo shoot said.
"Nope." Ying Zheng said, "I'm in a hurry to go back and discuss with Shizun." ”
"Alright then, I'll get you out."
Ying Zheng walked in front of Naxi Wang Ding, closed the Dingzu mechanism, and took out the Tianmu, but saw the colorful halo of the Tianmu flickering twice.
He didn't pay much attention to it, closed the Tianmu, put it in the lead box, and put it in the package.
didn't stop too long, but the bamboo shoots still led the way in front, sending Yingzheng's master and apprentice and the little year beast to the outermost secret passage.
"I'll come back to see you in a few days." Ying Zheng said to the bamboo shoots.
"Hehe, remember to bring some bamboo and bamboo shoots." The bamboo shoots laughed.
"That's nature." Ying Zheng said, "Are you sure you don't want some meat?" ”
The bamboo shoots shook their heads again and again, waved their hands and said, "Don't, don't." ”
"Then we'll take our leave." Ying Zheng was about to turn around, but found that the little beast was standing by the river, looking up at the upper reaches of the river.
"What's wrong?" Ying Zheng walked towards the little year beast and asked at the same time.
The little beast wagged its tail and said, "I feel that something seems to be wrong in that direction, but I don't know what's wrong." ”
Ying Zheng also looked in that direction and asked, "Is there any abnormal noise, or is it a peculiar smell?" ”
The little year beast shook its head: "No, it's just a feeling." ”
"Then observe and observe, and I'll summon Twenty-Seven." With that, he took out the black iron snail and blew it.
After a while, he saw the river surging, and Twenty-Seven poked his head out of the bottom of the water and crawled to his side.
"Let's go, go back to Xianyang." Ying Zheng said.
Twenty-seven asked, "Isn't this fat man going this time?" ”
Fat man naturally refers to the tip of the bamboo shoot.
"He's not going." Ying Zheng said, "The West Queen Mother Temple has been explored, let's go back directly." ”
Twenty-seven complained: "I knew it wasn't going, how good it was for me to catch some fish and shrimp just now, but just now I was afraid that there would be no place for the squeezed abdominal sac after eating too much." ”
Ying Zheng had no choice but to soothe: "Go back and make up for you." ”
Since he said so, Twenty-Seven couldn't say anything more, opened his abdominal sac, and let the master and apprentice get into it with the little year beast.
Sure enough, the abdominal pouch without the tip of the bamboo shoots suddenly felt a lot more spacious, Ying Zheng took Xu Fu's bag, took out a piece of tortoise shell, and looked at it carefully.
Twenty-seven sneaked all the way, and soon returned to the fire eye of Lishan.
Simply told Jairus the result of this trip, Yingzheng thanked it, and the little beast returned to Jairus's side.
Twenty-seven said hello, then got into the eye of fire again and returned to Jiuyou.
Jianwei looked at the tortoise shells and beast bones, and said slowly: "I really don't know what is written on this, you'd better ask your master." ”
"The location of Yaochi, could it be that the predecessors don't know?" Ying Zheng wondered.
Jairus shook his head: "Regarding the matter of Kunlun Mountain, the Dragon Clan knows very little, maybe it is related to the agreement of the Protoss, and the buildings you mentioned, probably the Protoss also participated." ”
As soon as it said this, Ying Zheng was a little more convinced of his guess, and the dragon clan knew very little about the situation in Longyuan.
"Then I'll ask the master." Ying Zheng said, "If I need to gather all the heavenly eyes in the near future, I hope you can help me." ”
"No problem." "If you don't want to go in person, just let Candle Jiuyou make a few more trips and bring Tianmu back." ”
"That's insincere." Ying Zheng smiled, "I have to visit in person to be sincere, I originally wanted to wait until the unification to go to those few fire eyes to visit the other seniors, but now it seems that the process will be accelerated." ”
"Well, it should be." Immediately, Jairus explained the general situation of several other divine beasts that Yingzheng had never seen one by one.
Except for the boss prisoner cow, the old five stubborn, and the old six tyrants, the rest of the Yingzheng have never seen it.
The third laughing at the wind and guarding the Yellow Mountain is also the core of the third dragon vein.
The old four Pu Lao, located in the fire eye of Taiheng Mountain, now Taiheng Mountain is divided into two pieces, Pu Lao is called Heng Mountain, that is, the North Yue of the Five Mountains, and the other part, is called Taihang Mountain.
The old seven are called the Raccoon and guard the old dragon's mouth, which is the intersection of the third dragon vein and the Bohai Sea.
The old eight are negative and guard Dongyue Taishan.
The last old nine kisses are guarded in Nanyue Hengshan.
After remembering the appearance and preferences of several divine beasts, Ying Zheng took his leave.
When I came out, it was already dark, and the sky was very gloomy, and the dark clouds seemed to be about to weigh overhead, and the rain was about to pour down.
When he came to the camp, Yingzheng hurriedly said to Ji Fa: "It's about to rain, let's go back to Xianyang first, and I have something to say in the carriage." ”
"Okay." Ji Fa briefly tidied up and followed him into the carriage.
Ying Zheng first talked about the situation of choosing a new home in Minshan with bamboo shoots, and then carefully talked about what he had seen and heard in the West Queen Mother Temple, and then took out those tortoise shells and animal bones.
The light was a little dim, Ji Fa took a general look, and then asked, "You mean, after the combination of the West Wang Ding and Tianmu, the mechanism leading to this secret room was opened?" ”
"Yes." Ying Zheng nodded and said, "I checked carefully, except for that secret room, there are no other mechanisms, and from all indications, what is recorded on these tortoise shells and animal bones is related to Na Yao Chi." ”
"That's true." Ji Fa nodded and said, "It seems that this tortoise shell is the road map leading to Na Yao Chi and the internal structure map of Yao Chi, and as for the Nine Stars Alignment, it is the method used by Nuwa's ancestors to mend the heavens at that time." ”
"Master, what I wonder most about is why these important records have not been passed down in our Tiancheng lineage." Ying Zheng frowned and said, "Even the ancestor of Shennong, the head of the Five Emperors, doesn't seem to have left any message. ”
Ji Fa pondered for a moment and said: "That means that the later five emperors don't know the details of the Nuwa ancestor mending the sky, maybe it's really as Jairus said, because of the participation of the god clan, so many things can't leave clues or records." ”
"But if Yao Chi is a key link in the final restoration of the dragon vein, wouldn't it be a delay?" Ying Zhengdao.
Ji Fa sighed lightly: "Maybe the dragon clan knows something, but it is not yet the time to speak, after all, the Great Wall we want to build is still just a prototype." ”
"Is there any key hidden information about this map and beast bones?"
"You'll have to look closely to find out." Ji Fa said, "By the way, what does Xiwang Ding look like, can you draw it?" ”
"No problem." Ying Zheng said with confidence, "I have carefully observed, and it is no problem to rebuild one." ”
"That's what you said." Ji Fa glanced at him and said, "Don't mess around these days, after building the Naxi Wang Ding, I will allow you to take the next step." ”
Ying Zheng: "......"
Isn't this a job for yourself?
However, he didn't have any resistance, this was a skill that the heirs of heaven should learn, but he dragged it out again and again.
"Xiwangding is just trying." Ji Fa Zhengse said, "In the future, maybe you have to rebuild Jiuding, after all, Jiuyou also needs to be completely repaired, and a group of Dading may not be enough." ”
This is true, Jiuyou and Jiuxiao are one mile and one table, you can't just patronize Jiuxiao, and ignore the safety of Jiuxiao, in that case, the dragon clan will not agree.
Ying Zheng was in a hurry to return to the palace, so he urged the forbidden army to speed up the pace and go straight to Xianyang.
As luck would have it, as soon as I entered the study, it started to rain outside.
After ordering Zhao Gao to light all the lights in the room, Ying Zheng took out all the tortoise shells and animal bones and placed them neatly on the table so that Ji Fa could carefully inspect them.
On the other side, he picked up the pen and grinded, and repainted the structure of Xiwangding bit by bit.
Some places are more accurate, so I asked Xu Fu, and later Xu Fu simply wrote it, and he revised it on the side.
The most curious has to be Zhao Gao, he was originally extremely curious about Ying Zheng's secrets, and always wanted to follow King Qin to explore around, but Ying Zheng always didn't take him to play, so he could only stay in the palace and be in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, if you build a ding, I can always help." Zhao Gao said.
Ying Zheng nodded: "You really can't just find a place to start making this tripod, either in the Jingjia class, or in the Sima Mansion." ”
"Your Majesty, it's in Sima Mansion, I also want to participate." Xu Fu said.
"Why, alchemy is almost done, and you have begun to think about making a tripod?" Ying Zheng said with a smile.
"Hehe, of course I will learn whatever you ask me to learn." Xu Fudao.
"Okay." Ying Zheng said, "I will find out the process of making tripods, let's prepare materials while learning, and strive for a success!" ”
Ji Fa on the other side heard this, looked up at the young people, and smiled knowingly.
Late at night, Ying Zheng asked Zhao Gao to clean up two spare bedrooms, let Ji Fa and Xu Fu live separately, and then picked up pen and ink, and copied the words and maps on the tortoise shell and animal bones on a book of bamboo.
Outside, the rain was pouring down, the wind was whirring, and the occasional lightning bolt streaked across the night sky.
Ying Zheng stretched his waist and was about to go back to rest, but he found that the door of the study suddenly opened a crack, and a figure jumped in.
The figure was wearing the costume of a eunuch, Ying Zheng thought that Zhao Gao had come to call him to sleep, but the figure closed the door and turned around, but it was not Zhao Gao.
And this face is extremely unfamiliar, and Ying Zheng has never seen it.
This is strange, if it is a new little eunuch, he is definitely not qualified to enter Yingzheng's study, unless he summons him.
But he didn't care too much, after all, the princesses in the harem might also have some things, and sent a little eunuch to pass on the message to him.
"Which palace are you in, but which princess has something to do?" Ying Zheng put down the pen in his hand and asked casually.
The eunuch did not salute, but looked at him carefully with a smile, his eyes very sharp.
Ying Zheng was suddenly surprised, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "The widow is asking you, why don't you answer?" ”
The person who came said with a smile: "In order to come to see you, it is really troublesome, and I want dark clouds to cover the sun, and I have to change into the clothes of this eunuch, which is ugly and dead." ”
Ying Zheng suddenly felt bad, quickly got up, leaned towards the Xuanyuan Sword beside him, and at the same time looked at the man coldly and said, "Who are you, I have seen a lot of assassins, and it is really rare to be in the palace." ”
The visitor still looked at him with a smile on his face, lowered his voice and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm not an assassin, on the contrary, I can't protect you yet." ”
"Protect me?" Ying Zheng frowned and asked, "Why?" ”
"Because you are the descendant of the Heavenly Lineage, the representative of the human race, and the future leader." The visitor asked, "Isn't that important enough?" ”
Ying Zheng's heart tightened.
Those who really know his identities will only be people who inherit the same lineage, but this person is obviously not.
I only heard the person continue: "Let me ask you, did you go to the West Queen Mother Temple today, and also opened the West King Ding there?" ”
Ying Zheng didn't hide it, and nodded slowly.
"Hehe, this is not over, I received the signal released by Naxi Wang Ding and Tianmu, so I came to you." The person who came said, "As for my identity, I naturally want to tell you the truth, I am the messenger of the Protoss, and I have come to see you this time." ”
Ying Zheng: "......!! ”
Protoss Emissary?!
Visitors from outside the world?!
