Chapter 59 - Crane Fire Lamp

After that, I turned around and continued walking up to the third floor.

When everyone arrived on the third floor, just as everyone's flashlights were shining on the third floor, the night pearls on the wall suddenly lit up.

I stood on the crystal staircase and looked inside, and saw that the third floor was not empty.

In the center of the third floor is a square crystal wall, which looks like a room.

But outside there were just some crystal tables and chairs and the like, nothing new.

The room in the center occupies about half of the entire third floor, and is built in the very center of the third floor.

We all looked at each other, and Lan Wantian said: "Is this room the owner of the Crystal Palace's warehouse or something like that, specially used to store all kinds of sundries?"

Hu Dalong said: "If this house belongs to me, then I must put some more expensive things on the third floor, or live directly on the third floor. After all, I can see far from a high place.

You can enjoy the scenery of the Crystal Palace, and there is a huge balcony on the third floor. When you have nothing to do, you can drink some tea and listen to music here. This is called life."

I smiled and said, "If it were me, I would also use this third floor as a bedroom. Okay, let's go over and have a look. There's no point in guessing here."

A few people nodded, and then we raised our feet and walked straight into the crystal room in the center of the room.

The door of the house is also made of crystal, but we can't see anything when looking from the outside in.

In every crystal hall here, you can't see any objects from the outside in, but standing inside the house, you can indeed see some vague scenes outside, which looks quite magical.

There are many portraits hanging on the walls of the Crystal Room, but almost all of these portraits are portraits of the beautiful woman in the statue.

There are also several pictures of the six-clawed golden toad, but they also have no color, except for black and yellow paper.

All that's left are some scattered small items, such as crystal cups placed on the table.

But if we take a closer look, we can still see that this third floor should be where people live.

When I walked to the crystal door, I saw a concave semicircular handle specially carved on the crystal door.

And this semicircular handle can be used to open the door, just like the door handle of a car door when people drive it now.

Although I couldn't see what was going on inside, I still stuck to the crystal door and looked inside. This may be a person's curiosity about the unknown.

I shook my head, then held the door handle with both hands, and then slowly opened the crystal door with both arms.

But it should be said that the owner of this Crystal Hall is really extravagant. From the time we entered until now, the lighting tools we have seen are huge night pearls. I don’t know where the Zhali people have made so many lights.

Luminous pearls come in all sizes.

When the crystal door opened, everyone felt a warm current coming from inside the room.

This warm current stunned the five of us. Our current location is dozens of meters deep underground. You can imagine how cold we are now.

But the sudden warm current made several of us cover our mouths and noses with our hands, fearing that there was some poisonous gas inside.

Then everyone quickly turned on their lighting tools and shined their light into the crystal room.

But the current scene still made some of us stunned for a moment.

I saw a huge crystal bed placed in the room, but there were no beddings on the bed, only a large bed.

The walls of this crystal room are hung with crane lanterns that are still burning with blue flames. There is a crystal display stand next to the bed, and the display rack is filled with many bamboo slips.

From inside the house, you can clearly see the light of the luminous night pearls and the starry sky dome outside.

Standing inside the house, we actually faced each other

The scene outside the house is unobstructed.

At this time, Hu Dalong looked at the circle of fire lamps still burning with blue flames on the crystal wall and asked: "Boss, what kind of torch is this thing? Why is the flame not only still burning, but also emitting blue flames?"

Flame, could this be the legendary fire of immeasurable karma?"

I rolled my eyes and said: "What kind of infinite karma fire is this? You have watched too many movies. The reason why this lamp keeps burning is because of the crystal wall, plus there is a certain chemical component added to it.

Phosphorus, so it can keep burning."

"And this flame is not blue, because we are in this crystal room, and these flames have an impact on our vision under the reflection of the crystal, so we can see this blue flame.

"

"And this lamp is not mounted on the wall after being carved. This lamp is called the Crane Fire Lamp. I have seen it in an ancient book."

"This Crane Fire Lamp must be taken out from the inside of a whole piece of crystal, and then the Crane Fire Lamp must be cut out from the crystal. If I guessed correctly, this crystal house should be a huge crystal.

, a professional sculptor hollowed out the inside of the crystal to build such a crystal room, which can really be regarded as a big deal."

Hearing this, everyone nodded repeatedly, and Li Kun said: "I was thinking that since this thing can burn for thousands of years, I would like to take it back and study it, but I didn't expect that it is actually integrated with this crystal room."

As he spoke, Li Kun stood on tiptoes and raised his hand to hold the crane lantern on it. Then he pulled hard with his right arm a few times, but the crane lantern showed no signs of being pulled down by Li Kun. Even

No sound came out.

Li Kun pulled hard again without believing it, and then Li Kun's feet had already left the ground, and the crane lantern did not move at all.

Seeing this, Li Kun sighed and said, "Forget it, I can't get this thing off. I still want to take it off and take a closer look."

Xu Tiandao: "You don't want to take it down and have a look. You obviously want to take this toy back directly."

Li Kun sighed, then turned to me and said: "Old Liu, you said that the flame is not actually blue, how can you tell?"

I said: "Let's shine our flashlights on the crane lanterns, and then you will know."

After listening to what I said, several people pointed their flashlights at the same crane lantern. I saw that the crane lantern directly in front of us miraculously changed from blue to ordinary flames under the flashlight beam.

color.

This scene was an eye-opener for several people. Li Kun said: "Old Liu, okay, I think you are just fooling around."

I rolled my eyes and said, "Why, when did I tell lies with my eyes open? This is all based on science, which means you are so superstitious every day."

Li Kun chuckled and said: "There is no scientific basis for doing this. If there is any scientific basis, how come the corpses in the coffins can jump out and chase people."

I turned my head and looked back and forth in the room. Apart from the crane lanterns, there was only this crystal display stand in the room.

I walked to the front of the crystal display stand and reached out to take down a tube of bamboo slips to see what was written inside.

But just when I picked up the bamboo slips, I heard a crash and the bamboo slips were scattered all over the floor.

I held the remaining bamboo slips in my hand and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Then I picked up one and looked at it, and finally sighed.

Although the sealing state of the Crystal Hall is very good, the writing on these bamboo slips has been erased with the passage of time.

The surface has been severely corroded, and it is impossible to see what writings there are on it.

I turned to Xu Tian and said, "Old Xu, can our current scientific and technological means be able to restore the handwriting on these ancient writings?"

Xu Tian nodded and said: "This can be done, but some of the more seriously damaged ones are still not possible. The only way to connect the following is based on the undamaged areas, but in that case

There will be most things wrong, just like the Yongle Dadian. The things recorded in the Yongle Dadian back then were so comprehensive that the world could never imagine them. Moreover, the first-generation Yongle Dadian had already been damaged beyond its appearance. If it were

Without it being passed down to future generations, the Yongle Grand Ceremony would have been lost long ago.”

I nodded and said: "Perhaps these bamboo slips may contain things about the Zhali people, but if that's the case, then there is no need for us to bring these things. The surfaces of these bamboo slips have been severely corroded.

I can’t clearly see the writing on it. Maybe we won’t have such high-end science and technology until decades later.”

Several people nodded, and Hu Dalong said: "Boss, let's go down and see where the door on that floor leads to. Maybe it's the coffin of the owner of the Crystal Hall. The coffin can still be lifted by then."

Take a look."

I smiled and said, "Third brother, I didn't expect you to be so interested in raising a coffin. This is the first time I went to a grave and saw the bronze corpse without being afraid. This time I actually thought of taking a look at the coffin."

Hu Dalong chuckled and said, "Isn't there a boss and a second brother? Why should I be afraid if you are here?"

Li Kun said: "Of course, Lao Liu and I are professionals. Come on, let's go down and have a look. I also want to see where the crystal door leads to."

I nodded and said, "Well, let's go down and take a look."

After saying that, Li Kun walked towards the bottom of the stairs.

After I turned my head and took one last look at the three-story crystal room, I followed a few people and slowly walked down.
