After speaking, she turned her gaze to the spectators outside the white marble platform!

"I counted, there are a total of twenty of these couches, which happens to be the number of all the emperors of the Tang Dynasty, from Taizu Li Yuan, Taizong Li Shimin, Gaozong Li Zhi to the last emperor Li Zhu, just enough to fill all the couches in the outer circle, and the people around them should be the queens or spouses of the emperors of the past dynasties."

When Song Siyuan introduced, everyone looked at these Hu couches, the Hu couch is about one meter wide and two meters long, there are backs similar to railings to wrap the left and right backs, only the front is not sealed, the square table is placed on the Hu couch, and the left and right sides are divided into the emperor and queen, they are all gorgeously dressed, their eyes are serious, staring at the Wu Wu Xian on the jade platform!

When they observed the furnishings, the music in the front hall never disappeared, and the bells and drums, and the huqin and gonghou continued to ring, and the ensemble played the court music.

But after a while, these two Wu Xian, who were originally static, actually began to tremble in the music, like puppets in disrepair turning their joints, and as the joints became more and more lubricated, they held the Xuanjian and held the bell, and danced on the white marble platform.

These two witches are like mandarin ducks playing in the water, cranes raising their necks, and also like wild deer in the forest, birds and birds on the branches...... Forever dancing in a lingering state, the dance is melodious and frustrating, and the flexibility of the action is as if someone is possessed by a soul, and people can't take their eyes off it.

What's even more weird is that in this dance, Wu Xian can always look at everyone inadvertently, staring at them gloomily, and then quickly avoiding his eyes, this feeling of being stared at makes people's backs rise goosebumps.

Song Siyuan became curious about the movable puppets in front of her, and walked to the side hall on the right to take a closer look.

These musicians wore crimson round-necked robes, white undershirts with white collars exposed, official-like black gauze heads, horns upturned, slightly crossed, black boots on their feet, jade belts on their waists, and their faces were white and yellow, with the roundness and richness of the Li Tang people.

Whether it is a male or female musician, they are all affectionate with their eyebrows and eyes, their faces are full of joy, and all the clothes on their bodies are also Seiko embroidery, which can be called gorgeous.

These musicians either beat the chimes, or play the piano with a stand, or hold the pipa diagonally, or hold the flute and xunsheng in their mouths, or hold the leather drum and copper bells in their hands, or pluck the gonghou moon qin, seven or eight people in a row, five or six rows of people staggered with each other, holding various musical instruments, and playing according to the score.

She lifted the clothes of the musicians and carefully observed their bodies, some of the musicians' skins have cracked a lot after thousands of years, and from the gap in, you can clearly see the copper spring bones inside, it can be seen that these musicians are also based on copper springs as skeletons, and then use ceramics to burn into various body structures, and assemble them into a complete person.

These musicians have special movable card slots at the joints, which can make the musicians more flexible when playing, and their so-called playing is not really able to read the score, but the mechanism is set up underground, and the underground mechanism drives the gears and mechanical arms on the body to change, forming the sound of playing musical instruments!

It can be said that this is an extremely elaborate puppet array.

Yue Guanchao saw that Song Siyuan stopped and looked very carefully, and stepped forward and asked, "How is it, have you found anything?" ”

Song Siyuan looked at him and explained everything in front of him: "These musicians and witches are all made of machinery, similar to what we saw in the Haidong Imperial Mausoleum, except that there are not so many harmful organs, maybe they are just to show the scene of sacrifice!" ”

After speaking, she pointed to Wu Xian, who was frustrated on the white marble platform, and continued:

"In ancient times, the objects and methods of sacrifice may have been different, but there must have been three aspects: prayer, sacrifice, and supplication. Prayer means that the shamans first attract the attention of the gods in some way, then offer the sacrifices they have given, and finally use the offerings to make requests or wishes to the gods. ”

"These three steps are actually the essence of the witch sacrifice culture - using the sacrifices delivered in advance in exchange for the gods to fulfill their wishes, whether it is the production and operation of the Xia Shang, praying for divination, or the worship of heaven and the ancestors of the Zhou Dynasty, it is essentially to sacrifice items to get help."

She paused, and said in a cautious tone: "If my guess is true, what we see is the first step of prayer, using the psychic dance of witches and witches to attract the attention of the ancient gods, then the next thing is to offer sacrifices and wait for the gods to send down the gods, and we continue to go down, probably the temple of sacrifice, and the last courtyard is the temple dedicated to the gods!" ”

"Song Qianjin, these old bodies don't care, I just want to know, where are the treasures accumulated by the Li Tang people for three hundred years put by them, I see that this hall is empty, and it doesn't look like a treasure has been stored!"

The Zhang clan had long been impatient, originally they didn't have much time to come down, and they were delayed by Song Siyuan for a lot of time, originally thinking that it was to crack the mechanism, but seeing that there was no mechanism in this hall, they immediately sank their faces.

"Mrs. Zhang, the sacrificial thing should be the treasures of the four seas and five lakes, according to Li Tangren, they probably used the treasures to sacrifice to the gods, so as to repair the damaged dragon qi, if there are really so many treasures, it must be in the sacrificial hall in the middle."

Before the words fell, Mrs. Zhang looked at her brother behind her, and the old water bandit motioned to the sappers behind him to follow him around the white marble platform, and enter the backyard through the corridors on the left and right sides.

But between breaths, I already saw bandits cheering in front of me: "Get rich, get rich, this is really a golden nest." ”

With these words, the people kept coming closer to the verandah, and entered the atrium through the two corridors on the north wall!

Yue Guanchao and they walked to the middle courtyard one after another, and what they saw was indeed strange, the middle courtyard was much larger than the front yard, about five or six times the size of the front yard, as if it was a huge square.

The layout is similar to that of the forecourt, the north hall is twice as large as the vestibule, decorated with green tiles and golden owls, white walls and red windows, and intricate dougongs, and the left and right verandahs are shaped like square frames close to the walls, connecting the east and west corridors in which they enter and exit.

Standing on the side of the corridor, you can clearly see that under the courtyard is a huge pool of water that fills the middle courtyard!

The ripples in the pond are sparkling, the reflection is clear, the three fairy mountains are distributed in the middle in a triangular wedge, one big and two small, located in the water, representing Penglai, Abbot, Yingzhou, at the same time, the fairy mountain is surrounded by dense water pavilion stone bridges, they meander in the vicinity of the fairy mountain, the Qianmo vertical and horizontal, sparse and dense, starting from any point, you can rely on the water pavilion stone bridge to the end of the atrium!

If you look closely, the water pavilion stone bridge in the middle courtyard is like all kinds of street lanterns on the river, gorgeous and detailed, rich in color!
