Chapter 1103 Spring and Autumn Silk Script

Obviously, we all thought of it together!!

Otherwise, the red paint-like thing in the ravines carved on the bronze box looks so familiar, both in color and texture, they all seem familiar!!

Back then, when we broke into the burial place where bones were not transformed into bones in the Demon Burial Tomb, there was a six-pointed star array in that tomb. The thing used to draw the array was very similar to the red paint on the bronze box in front of us.

When I was at the Demon Burial Tomb, I asserted that the six-pointed star array belonged to the content recorded in the Xuanhuang Nine Burials Chapter of the "Ten Thousand Burial Sutra". Now I can't understand it at all. It was an accident that made me break open the six-pointed star array and find

The passage to the next tomb.

"If I remember correctly, when you were in the Demon Tomb, you accidentally dropped your own blood on the six-pointed star formation, and then exploded the boulder blocking the entrance of the cave, right?"

Brother Yaozi watched with shining eyes, and the short knife was playing tricks in his hands. Then he pinched the thin blade and handed the handle to me: "How about... you try again!?"

This time I didn't refuse. I nodded. After taking the short knife, I lightly cut my finger. Dark red blood beads fell intermittently along the fingertips. After falling on the bronze box, it splashed away. The blood naturally flowed out.

It rolled down into a ravine decorated with dragon head carvings.

At first, there was no reaction on the bronze box.

As more and more blood dripped from me, the blood began to flow along the carved ravines, directly converging and connecting them together.

At this time, a sudden change occurred, and a "sizzling" sound was heard. The blood was actually absorbed by the red paint-like thing. The red paint became brighter and brighter, and a bright red light was faintly emitted from behind.

faint!

“Stay away!!”

I gave a low shout, stood up and immediately retreated. Most of the people here had seen me break the six-pointed star array in the Demon Burial Tomb with their own eyes, so they couldn't help but disperse!

boom!!

The next moment, the bronze box exploded!!

To be precise, only the piece engraved with the dragon's head exploded, with bronze fragments flying everywhere. The sound was like a detonator being detonated. Even though we were more than ten steps away, it still shook my ears.

There was a buzzing sound, and a palm-sized piece of bronze almost grazed my scalp and flew past, which shows the power of this explosion.

At this point, the box has been completely broken open. It has been confirmed that this box is definitely from our lineage of ritual officers. The mechanism is also definitely the same as the six-pointed star array in the Demon Burial Tomb. The key to breaking the mechanism is from our lineage.

Blood, fortunately I didn't listen to Brother Yaozi and let Wushuang break it open violently, otherwise the contents of the box would be destroyed directly. However, it's hard to say whether this box was left by the common people of Wei.

After a while, the white smoke dispersed.

The curiosity of the few of us had already been aroused by the bronze box, and we suddenly gathered around it.

Inside the box, the first thing that caught the eye was a pile of black and yellow things.

"This is... a silk book?!"

Looking at these black and yellow things, I was a little stunned.

The so-called silk books, also called bamboo slips, actually use white silk as a writing material. Before the advent of paper, this thing coexisted with bamboo slips, but it was expensive to make. Only some wealthy scholar-bureaucrats would use it occasionally, and it was mostly used for recording.

Very important thing.

The most popular time for this thing was probably during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Han Dynasty.

This bronze box is completely sealed, so these silk books are in excellent condition, just a little yellowed. The owner of the silk books should have used some special techniques to process the silk, so when the bronze box exploded, the silk books were not there

produce any changes.

I carefully took out a stack of silk books from the bronze box, for fear of damaging them. This thing had been there for I don't know how many years. It still felt silky and soft, but the density of the silk and other things made it relatively rough.

"It should be the earliest silk. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be from the Spring and Autumn Period. This kind of silk was also of high quality during the Spring and Autumn Period. It is similar in texture to the silk book from the Chu Tomb of Zankuchu in Changsha, but it is better preserved.

, it seems that this should be the Chu silk book from the Spring and Autumn Period!"

I became even more confused and puzzled, and raised my head and said: "It seems that the people who left this bronze box are not the common people of Wei, but the common people of Wei are from the Xia Dynasty. This is something left by another ancestor of our family! What's going on? This

The connection between the place and our family is becoming more and more confusing..."

"It's really weird. There has already been a commoner of the Wei Dynasty, and yet another one came during the Spring and Autumn Period. He was able to use the Xuanhuang Nine Burial Chapter to set up mechanisms. Most likely, he was a heavenly official. In other words, there were at least two

Has Heavenly Official ever been here before?"

When Lao Bai thought about it, he felt a little confused, and waved his hands fiercely: "Don't worry about this for now, let's take a look at what is written on the silk book!!"

I have opened the silk book. It is very well preserved and the handwriting inside is also very clear. It was written with a brush.

The words on it are not the unique sacrificial inscriptions of our ritual officials, but a kind of writing similar to seal script, or more similar to the bronze inscriptions from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

"At first glance, it looks very much like the writing of the Chu State in the Spring and Autumn Period, but in fact, it looks different if you look closely."

I pointed to a part of the text on the silk script and said: "Look, there are many combined characters in the silk script, and there are even many punctuation marks. This is the script of the Jin State during the Spring and Autumn Period. The characters of the Jin State are somewhat similar to the characters of the Chu State, but

But there is a difference. There are many ligatures and punctuation marks in Jin characters. The glyphs on it are very similar to the Houma League Script unearthed from the ancient city of Houma, Shanxi Province in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

, it should be the Jin characters without a doubt!!”

So, it makes sense.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, our family members were actually very scattered. There were basically people from our family around each prince, usually as scholar-bureaucrats.

The owner of the bronze box should be a heavenly official of the Jin Kingdom during the Spring and Autumn Period. These texts were copied using the best silk scripts from the Chu Kingdom. This does not conflict with the fact that the location we are currently in was in the Jin Kingdom during the Spring and Autumn Period.

It was nearby and even belonged to the Jin Kingdom at one time. It was normal for the heavenly official of the Jin Kingdom to come here, but the appearance of the common people from Wei was more unexpected.

Regarding these Jin characters, I actually have dyslexia, but I know seal script and have studied various characters from the Shang and Zhou dynasties. The glyphs are similar, and even a blind guesser can guess one or two, and this first stack

On the silk book, what attracts me the most is three words - Genealogy of Ten Thousand Genes!!

After recognizing these three words, my hands began to tremble slightly: "Ten Thousand Genealogy, this is the complete Wan Genealogy!! Wei Daozi once said that the Wan Genealogy was written by Shengwu Tianguan, who saw everything he had seen in his life.

All kinds of inhuman things were recorded on it, including their characteristics, weaknesses, etc. Later, for some reasons, the Shengwu Heavenly Official divided the Wan family tree into two, and the part that recorded the great evils was hidden in the Wan family tree.

In the Burial Sutra, it is in the Tianguan Juque chapter. I can’t read it until I reach Tianguan. The remaining half of the book can be read by everyone from the Liguan sect, but... when it comes to me

In this life, the remaining half of the book is also incomplete!!

At least, I didn’t see any record of things like feathered people in it!!

This volume of genealogy is from the Spring and Autumn Period. Although it is only half a volume, at least it is not incomplete!!"

Words can no longer describe my excitement. Our family's inheritance has been broken. If I want to become a heavenly official, I must pick up the broken path. Now... I have finally found the missing part. How can I not be excited?

"Okay, don't be excited yet, don't be excited yet, there will definitely be surprises!"

Lao Bai hurriedly said: "Take out these silk books first and see what the heavenly official of Jin has left for you!!"
Chapter completed!
