Volume VI Chapter 23 Disharmony

As soon as I stepped through the tall mahogany threshold of the temple gate, I saw dozens of giant statues standing on both sides of the door, first of all, two mighty and evil bronze lions, both of which were more than one person high.

The one on the left is a male lion with a golden ball under his paws, symbolizing the supreme power to unify the world, and the one on the right is stepping on a lion cub under his paws, symbolizing the endless offspring, which is a female lion.

The bronze platform where the lion crouches is engraved with a phoenix and a peony, and the three together symbolize the "king".

The king of beasts, the king of birds, and the king of flowers.

Although most of the lion statues in the world are stone lions, and bronze lions are relatively rare, they are not absent, so this is not surprising.

Strange is strange that this pair of bronze lions is not placed in front of the temple gate, but placed on the inside, I don't know for what reason, in short, it is very unreasonable.

Behind the bronze lion is a pair of hedgehogs, calves, elephants, unicorns, camels, and horses, and there are military generals, civil ministers, and lords after the bronze beasts.

The postures and costumes of the bronze figures are very peculiar, not so much to serve the king in the court, but to perform some strange ceremony.

A large group of bronze beasts and bronze men guarded the deepest throne of the temple like stars holding the moon.

Because this Lingyun Palace is the ground facility of the ancient cemetery palace, not the burial chamber where the coffin is placed, the group of thieves is quite relaxed, and they are not as nervous as if they have entered the Xuan Palace.

However, the hall was surprisingly quiet, and the more there was no movement, the more eerie it became.

No living person has entered this place for 2,000 years, but there is no damp mildew, and everything is covered with a thick layer of dust.

These ashes also come from the bricks and tiles in the temple, without any dust from the outside world, covering the history of 2,000 years ago.

The throne inlaid with gold and jade is in the deepest part of the Huixian Palace, and there is a wide gold pool in front of it, but there is no white jade bridge in the middle.

The water in the pool has long since dried up, and from here through the pool with a searchlight, you can only vaguely see a red jade dragon coiled on the throne, and it is impossible to see whether there is a seated statue of the king.

Luo Lao Crooked scratched his face with the barrel of his revolver, and complained: "Grandma, this ancient king likes to be high up, so far away from his ministers, and he even discusses the government of a fart." ”

"If we are so approachable, the brothers drink wine at a table and eat meat in large chunks, and that is a pleasure. ”

The corners of Luo Changfeng's mouth twitched, looked at Luo Lao, and said: "It's nonsense to talk about now, if you become the biggest warlord in the world in the future, and you can still drink wine with your brothers like this and eat meat in large pieces, I will admit that you Luo Shuai is really approachable." ”

Luo Lao was crooked when he heard it, Luo Changfeng said this, didn't he think that he could become the most powerful person in the world in the future?

He smiled at the moment and said, "Then you can look at it!"

Chen Yulou said with a smile: "I'll talk about it later, let's go over and take a look first!"

After saying that, he retreated some distance, rushed forward, and when he reached the edge of the pool, he kicked his legs and rushed towards the opposite shore outside Zhangyu.

Chen Yulou jumped nearly two feet longitudinally, and the place where he landed was still seven or eight feet away from the edge.

After he landed, he rolled forward, unloaded his inertia, and stood up in a chic manner.

It's just that there was a lot of dust on the ground, and his operation was suddenly dusty, and it actually made him even more extraordinary.

Luo Changfeng, Hua Magui, Red Girl and others and other swordsmen also drew scoops one after another, and flew over like this, and Luo Lao and his guards could only honestly jump off the pool and climb up from the opposite side.

Walking to the throne, the appearance of the red jade dragon could finally be seen clearly, under the strong light of the searchlight, the dragon's body was full of brilliance, and there was a rolling red light surging, and it was full of mercury.

However, this "hollow mercury dragon" is not strange, what really attracts Chen Yulou and them is the first half of this dragon.

The dragon plunged headlong into the wall, and only a small part of the dragon's body, including the dragon's tail, was entrenched on the throne, and the dragon's tail and claws rested on the back of the throne, looking a little lazy.

Most of the front half of the dragon body is inlaid on the back wall of the throne with undulating bumps, and the painting on the wall of the palace is integrated, so that the whole wall painting shows a strong sense of hierarchy, and the strange idea and the essence of the craft have been transformed into the environment.

People often say that "the dragon sees the head but does not see the tail", but the dragon on the throne and the wall is not the head of the tail, as if this hollow mercury jade dragon is becoming alive and flying into the mural.

The large mural combined with the dragon's body depicts the scene of the king becoming an immortal ascending to the sky.

In the painting, the fairy clouds are like the sea, the cigarette smoke is swirling, the continuous mountain peaks and palaces are looming in the clouds, and the clouds and mountains are full of agility.

The red jade dragon raised its head towards the sea of clouds, the sky cracked a red gap, half of the dragon's head had penetrated into it, the dragon body was connected to the throne in the hall of the Lingyun Heavenly Palace, and a king was surrounded by all the courtiers, stepping on the dragon body, slowly ascending to the sky.

The king had three long hairs, he couldn't tell how old he was, his face was not very vicious, and his expression was solemn and serene.

At the top of the picture, there is an old man riding a crane, with white eyebrows and a smile, looking down with his hands, and there are countless immortals behind him, although their postures are different, but their expressions are very respectful, and they are greeting the king who is stepping on the dragon body to step into the heavenly court.

There is no doubt that this king is the king, I saw that he was much taller than ordinary people, wearing a wide python robe with a round neck, a jade belt around his waist, a gold crown on his head, and a bead embedded in the crown, like a human eye.

Seeing that person's eyes, Hua Ling suddenly became excited, "Senior brother, Yun Chenzhu, Yun Chenzhu!"

"Yes, it's a bead of dust. The partridge whistle was a little steady, but his implied trilling words showed that he was not at peace at the moment.

Luo Changfeng patted him on the shoulder and said: "All signs indicate that the dust bead is in the tomb of the king of Xian, and it must be on the body of the king of Xian, as long as you find the coffin of the king, you will definitely be able to get the dust bead." ”

Chen Yulou also said in high spirits: "Don't worry, even if we dig up the tomb of the king, we will definitely help you get the dust beads." ”

"If there are not enough manpower, let's ask Luo Shuai to transfer the army and do a real 'moving mountains and unloading mountains' to remove the entire mountain. ”

Hearing this, Luo Lao hurriedly said: "Mr. Chen's words are what my old Luo meant. ”

Partridge Whistle looked at a few people gratefully, nodded heavily, and secretly made up his mind that as long as he could find the dust bead and relieve the thousand-year-old curse of the clansmen, he would sell this life to Changsheng Mountain.

It was clear at a glance in the front hall, except for those bronze statues and jade dragons, there was nothing peculiar, so everyone went to the back hall.

Before the Qin Dynasty, the palace was the core building that integrated large-scale sacrificial activities and political activities, and it was not until the Qin Dynasty that it was only established as the residence of the emperor who lived in the former dynasty and the queen.

As for the Ming Tower on the emperor's tomb, its apse should be a sacrificial hall, not a dormitory, there should be many inscriptions and murals in it that sing praises for future generations to worship and pay respects, as for whether there is a valuable Ming vessel, then only know if you have seen it.

If there is nothing valuable in the apse, they will go outside to find a place to dig a cannon hole and plant explosives to blow up the dungeon.

They are not afraid that the use of explosives will blow up the underground palace, and now Luo Lao Crooked has long since changed his shotgun.

In Bottle Mountain before, his sappers only knew how to use explosives, and they didn't understand professional sapper blasting techniques.

But when he annexed other warlords, he was lucky enough to recruit a few sappers who had really learned the profession of explosives, and their use of explosives had reached a level of subtlety, and they could blow up whatever effect they wanted.

Those sappers once showed him their hands, and they actually blew out a few words on a wall, while the rest of the wall was not affected at all.

This kind of technology suddenly shocked Luo Lao, and immediately incorporated them into his own sapper digging battalion, and the military salary was several times that of other sappers.
