Chapter 3 [The Tomb of the Earth Immortal]
When I was researching this thing half a year ago, I really hoped that I could find a significant other so that I could get a glimpse of the whole thing. Thanks to the beautiful lady Wang, I finally got my wish. Swallowing Novels www.
After counting carefully, there were a total of 32 copper characters cast on the mirror, arranged irregularly. The patterns engraved on the back were still messy, which made people confused. They said they were tomb passages, but they were not regular enough. They said they were a road map.
, there is no such road, and they connect to each other randomly. Some people believe that it is a maze.
After thinking about it for a long time, I had no idea. When I looked up, Hellen stared at me with his big, bright eyes. He stared at me so hard that it made me shiver.
"Hellen, since you came to the door with this thing, I think you have an idea. Let me tell you, I can't get it!" What a pig, how did you think of this? You are well prepared.
, I must have figured out the ropes a long time ago, and I don’t even know what to do with my brain.
Hellen smiled sweetly and said: "The writing on this is Xixia script. This kind of writing is dead. There are no more than ten people in the country who can decipher its meaning, and my father is one of them."
It seems that this girl admires her father very much. She always praises him for everything. But now that we are under the eaves, eagerly waiting for someone to answer our questions, we can only listen patiently.
"My father said that the 32 Tangut characters on it have no meaning at all. According to his estimation, they should be used as a key or something like that. As for the pattern on the back, it is a line of special terrain.
Picture, you won’t know what it is until you get to the place.”
After listening, I nodded and asked the question in my mind: "I know these 32 Xixia characters are meaningless, otherwise I would have found a scholar to ask for advice. But how do you know that the pattern behind it is a circuit diagram?"
"Hey, you knew this earlier? You actually understand Tangut?" Hellen asked in surprise.
Damn, although I have done some research on ancient culture, I am not so full that I can study Tangut. Only your old man has the leisure time. Of course, I don’t dare to say this in front of Hellen.
Yes, otherwise she might tear me apart.
"I don't know anything about Tangut, but a discerning person will know it at a glance. Look carefully, there are actually eight characters on it, each character appears four times. Tangut actually comes from the Chinese line, how could such a thing appear?
This way of writing." I explained casually. Isn't it obvious that these cultural people know how to go into blind alleys and work hard to study those things that are there and not there?
That's not the key. The question is, how could Hellen be so sure that the pattern on the back is the secondary circuit diagram? There must be something I don't know, and it should contain her purpose for coming to me today.
After hearing my explanation, hellen nodded in relief and said, "So that's it. It's indeed abnormal. Why didn't I think of it?"
After a pause, she then asked: "Taozi, have you heard of Yang Zhichun?"
Yang Zhichun? Why are you asking this? I thought about it carefully and answered uncertainly: "Is it the Yang Zhichun who stole the jade girl?"
Hellen nodded, confirming my guess, and then asked: "Then you should remember how he found that Da Dou, right?"
Damn, where is this going? This girl’s thoughts are so fast, we can’t keep up!
Who is Yang Zhichun? He is also a tomb robber. His story was recorded in "Bo Yi Zhi" by Zheng Huangu of the Tang Dynasty. It is said that he and nine companions went to fight a fight. It was a rich fight. There are also
There was a beauty made of jade. There was a ring on the ring finger of her left hand and she couldn't take it off. The tomb robbers chopped off her finger and the ring. As a result, the beauty actually bled.
Just chop it up, but Yang Zhichun saw it and had a kind heart, saying, "It's so unkind. There is something that cannot be redeemed. It hurts to cut off her finger." A life-size jade girl, this is a priceless treasure, but those stupid thieves
I didn't have any eyesight and actually chopped off a finger. It was really a waste of money.
When I saw this paragraph, I was so heartbroken that I wished I had been born a thousand years earlier. Let's go pour that bucket first to prevent those worthless guys from destroying the treasure. Because of this, I remembered this story.
That’s why Hellen didn’t stop asking questions.
Yang Zhichun and his group were just men who did rough work, with no technical skills. They did not find the big fight, but someone pointed it out. I remember this is recorded in "Bo Yi Zhi":
During the Kaiyuan period, it was suddenly said that there was a zombie who had been on the ground for a thousand years. Due to the collapse of the tomb, the zombie was resurrected. He did not eat grains, but drank water and breathed wind. At that time, people called him an immortal from the earth, or some called him an illusion, or he knew too much about the underground.
Gold and jade were accumulated, and they were good at traveling between Wu, Chu, Qi, and Lu. There were two thieves who took advantage of the rumors of the dead, and ended up with ten generations of murderers and opened a tomb in Hao, Shou.
To put it bluntly, it means that there is a zombie who has resurrected and is called an earth fairy. He can know where there is a large tomb underground, so someone gathered ten tomb robbers to dig it out according to his instructions, and actually asked them to dig it out.
The treasure has arrived. Among these ten people, there is Yang Zhichun.
Mysterious, like a myth or legend. According to me, that Earth Immortal was probably a tumbler. He collapsed the tomb when he was out working, and was caught by others. He suddenly said that he was a zombie.
Resurrection. Maybe he is a good craftsman. He can tell where there is an ancient tomb at a glance. People at the time didn't know it, so they mistakenly thought it was an earthly immortal!
Why are you mentioning this? I'm so confused by this little girl. After talking so much, does it have anything to do with the bronze mirror?
I nodded, indicating that I knew the legend, and asked her to continue quickly.
"That Earth Immortal is real, and there are many stories, but they have not been recorded in history. He had a good relationship with Tuoba Yingfeng, the leader of the Dangxiang Clan at that time. He once donated huge sums of money from the fight to help the Dangxiang Clan rise, and came forward to contact them.
The officials of the Tang Dynasty allowed the Dangxiang tribe to attach themselves to it, and they could be said to be great benefactors to the Dangxiang tribe. After his death, the Dangxiang tribe repaid their kindness by erecting a huge tomb for him in the area of present-day Inner Mongolia.
He was buried with him. This ancient mirror is the key to a certain key point in the tomb. As for the route map behind it, it should be a map of a certain place that must be passed to get to the tomb. More than a hundred years after the death of this earthly immortal, the Dangxiang clan has
It still continues to offer sacrifices, and this bronze mirror was kept for the convenience of offering sacrifices and has been preserved among the Dangxiang tribe."
This time Hellen didn't show off, and explained the whole story in a heartfelt manner, which made me faint on the spot. After thinking about it for a long time, I finally understood. This girl came to my door because she wanted me to help her with this.
The battle between "Earth Immortal" and "Earth Immortal" was defeated.
According to her, this "Earth Immortal" is really a real person. Robbing the tomb of such an old Yuanliang is considered a crime, isn't it? Hehe, I like it!
Although I was already tempted, it was still necessary to be cautious. I thought about it and asked: "Since there is no historical data, how do you know Hellen?"
When I asked this, I already felt a little bit distrustful of her. After all, we are doing the job of putting our heads on our belts. Since this girl told me the information so readily, she obviously meant to defeat this fight, but she just lacked the information.
I am just a partner because of my experience. You can’t be careless, the fighting is extremely dangerous, and if you can’t trust the people around you, you won’t know how you will die.
Hellen didn't mind my suspicions at all, and explained calmly: "This information was provided by an old friend of my father's. His ancestors were nobles of the Dangxiang clan, so he knew some secrets. The rough details of this fight were
He also told me the location."
Well, that makes sense. As long as she can answer the last question to my satisfaction, I trust her to take her out with me once. I’ve had so much free time in the past six months that I’m almost going to have trouble with it. It doesn’t matter if I move.
"How come you, a rich girl, want to fight against each other? Since your father can buy so many antiques from your brother, there shouldn't be any shortage of money in the family!" I stared at her eyes closely when asking.
There is a bit of untruth in what she said, and it cannot escape my eyes. We have known a lot of people over the years, and if we can't even tell this, then I deserve to be deceived.
Hellen looked back at me naturally and said in a low voice: "My father has studied Xixia culture all his life and has always dreamed of knowing the secret of the rise of the Dangxiang clan. Now that he has such an opportunity, how can he not be interested? It's just that my father is old and
My health is failing, so I, the daughter, have no choice but to help my father realize his dream."
The eyes are clear, firm and unwavering, and trustworthy.
I came to a conclusion in my mind and stopped hesitating. I nodded and said, "Well, I, Zhang Tao, will take over this job. I will divide the items into 50-50 ratios. You can sort out the specific information and provide it to me so that I can think about it."
How to start and what tools are needed!”
As soon as I agreed, Hellen immediately beamed and said happily: "Okay, I will send the information to Taozi tomorrow. You are ready to discuss it with your partner named Wang Kaixuan. I will also call him."
Let’s leave as soon as possible.”
I nodded and said that’s what I’ll do. Fatty hasn’t seen anyone for several days, and I really miss him. Fatty’s old man got some stimulation last time, and he went around trying to get Fatty to go on a blind date.
It’s because I want to hold my grandson in my arms.
During that time, the fat man went on blind dates every day. In the morning, he was the daughter of a certain company commander, in the afternoon, he was the granddaughter of a certain division commander, and in the evening, he was the sister of a certain guard. It was a favor, just like a celebrity attending a show. After a week, the fat man felt
No, we didn’t get married and lost ten pounds of fat. It frightened her so much that her face turned green when she heard the word “blind date” and she was running around hiding. I haven’t been home for several days, even me.
They didn't dare to come here, so they were looking for places to spend the night, for fear of being caught by the old man.
If you find him a job now, make sure he comes running like crazy, it will rain in time!
Wait, something is wrong. I turned to Hellen and asked: "What did you just say? Are you going to call someone too? Is there anyone else?"
"Yes! It's my father's old friend I just mentioned, and several of his subordinates." Hellen looked at it matter-of-factly, and said confidently, "He has provided so much information, and his only request is to
Let’s take him with us, as it should be, so I agreed.”
What? It’s over, it’s over, I’ve been tricked, it’s too early to agree. It’s troublesome enough to bring a woman with you, but you also have to bring an old man with you, and he also has to take care of the family, which makes it difficult for people to live. What I just said,
Regret immediately and swallow it? We can't do this. We can only knock out our teeth and swallow the blood.
Now I have the heart to hit the wall. I made you talk so fast and made you dizzy when I saw a girl. I must have suffered a loss now, and I deserve to be eaten by the big rice dumpling.
