Volume 2: Snow Ridge Please Ling-Haidong Imperial Mausoleum Chapter 298: Bengta Corpse Palace
"There was a similar record in "The Secret Biography of Huang Lao", and it was rumored that in addition to the overseas Yingzhou, Penglai, and Yuanqiao Mountains, there is also a fairy mountain, with a fountain of immortality, and the drink can prolong life and live for a thousand years, but this fairy mountain has no shadow of the dragon, and no one has seen it at all."
"However, today I am sure that this thing may really be a jade essence."
Yue Guanchao touched the cold chalcedony coffin with his tentacles, and carefully observed this thing with the cat master.
The chalcedony coffin is slightly larger than the ordinary wooden coffin, the head is high and the tail is low, the four sides are neat, the whole body is carved as the auspicious cloud pattern of the waves, the outer coffin is frosted texture, you can vaguely see the hazy corpse through the chalcedony stone, there are thousands of sea tribes lingering around the coffin, the coffin lid is naturally a block, there is no carving, only here is a completely transparent glass color, you can directly see the inner coffin full of jade essence through the coffin lid.
The corpse dressed up was soaked in jade essence, and because of this, it was in a highly transparent state, and the smallest details could be seen.
If the cat master's words are false, then how can the corpse in front of him be well preserved, and how can it be explained, but if he is telling the truth, can this liquid really be immortal?
He looked at Song Siyuan: "Song Qianjin, do you believe this matter of jade essence?" ”
Song Siyuan looked at the chalcedony coffin and nodded at him: "Why don't you believe it, the ancients left such a record, it must not be chasing the wind and catching shadows, in the long river of history, there may really be a strange liquid that can live forever, but I don't think it is divine power, and it may just be other substances in the rock formation that are playing a role." ”
After speaking, she looked at the chalcedony coffin:
"The jade essence here is likely to be preserved in an independent jade cavity after tens of millions of years of rock movement, and it has not been in contact with the outside world for a long time, and the trace elements in the jade continue to accumulate, making the water element change, full of some trace elements, maybe it can really make the body not rot, as for immortality, it may just be speculated by the ancients after seeing that the corpse is not rotten, but the ancients' thirst for immortality."
"Fortunately, this thing is not alive, just a corpse that will never decay, we have to focus on the clam tower, the things in there, no matter what they are, it is absolutely impossible to be dead, Ayinzun was sealed alive in the tomb, do you know what he did?"
These words brought everyone's attention to the right track, and they stepped on the Hailang Altar, crossed the thirty-six coffins and walked towards the most central building of the Mirror Palace, the Beng Tower.
When everyone just came out of the root arch of the tree, there were still 100 meters away from the mussel shell, and when they crossed the wave altar, there were only less than a few tens of meters left, and the majestic and magnificent mussel tower appeared in front of everyone.
The height of the Beng Pagoda has reached the top of the Mirror Palace, and it is only a few meters away from being able to connect with the sea blue lantern.
The body of the white pagoda is the size of five private houses, imitating the shells fastened up and down, slightly narrow up and down and wide in the middle, the form of the deep-sea white mussel firmly stands on the white marble platform, and only the round arch of the front is for entry and exit.
On the second floor, there is a circle of round windows at the widest position of the mussel shell, covered with glazed tiles, rippling with bright lights, from a distance, it seems that the mussel shell has a circle of halo, which is extraordinarily magical.
Yue Guanchao stepped on the white marble staircase, and led everyone to gradually approach the Beng Tower, and many rich details of the tower body came into view one by one.
The white of the pearl and jade outside the tower is not made of lacquer, but is made of real mussel shells, which will be removed from the skirt, leaving only the most gentle main shell, carving out the totem of the deep-sea fish family, inlaid on the wall, connected to each other into pieces, constituting the white shell of the mussel tower.
Most of the windows on the waist are the size of cylinders, covered with translucent tiles, and covered with auspicious clouds and bead-patterned carved window lattices, which exude a soft treasure light under the light of the blue sea.
On the countless gentle edges of the mussel shell, you can clearly see a circle of indifferent halo, the source of this halo is not silver paint but white bone strips, each bone strip has used the technique of instrumental gilding, the transparent tire glaze is attached to the bone strip, the length is connected, two or two tails, with the glazed light to outline the outline of the clam shell.
It is not surprising that this clam shell tower can be said to be ingenious and skillful, and it can create such a spectacle in the underground palace, which represents the highest level of craftsmanship in Haidong Shengguo.
When you get closer, you can even smell the salty smell of the mussel shells!
Everyone stood outside the clam building, like a few black beans, thrown in front of the palm-sized clam shell, looking small and helpless.
The cat master looked at the tower, and said with amazement: "The spirit god of the East China Sea lives in the mussel, this kind of mussel shell-shaped pavilion, not to mention looking at the northeast, that is, looking at today, it is also the only part of the scorpion tail, the old man wants to see, what is in it?" ”
