【Chapter 340】The mystery of spiritual objects (3)

It turns out that we had always thought that the owner of the Hanzi named Fang was just a fish, turtle, shrimp, and crab from Panlongdang who had become a spirit over time. We did not expect that she turned out to be a hunting princess sent by the Wusun Kingdom to the Han Dynasty to form a marriage alliance.

That is, a princess from a thousand years ago!

And through Princess Liejiao’s explanation, we finally understood the twists and turns involved.

When Princess Liejiao learned that one of the set of glazed lamps she brought from the Wusun Kingdom to the Han Dynasty was actually in the hands of Panlongdang fisherman Xing Sihai, she sent one of her aquatic spirits to transform into a

A middle-aged man, who calls himself Fang, wants to talk to Xing Sihai about redeeming him for a large amount of money.

It's just that the man named Fang tried to negotiate with Xing Sihai in his dream and exchanged gold, silver, pearls and jade for the glass lamp, but he didn't expect that Xing Sihai was very stubborn and regarded the glass lamp that had been passed down from generation to generation as more important than anything else.

Your own life is even more precious.

In desperation, the man surnamed Fang took a different approach and used a disgraceful method to force Xing Sihai to hand over the glass lamp. Although he actually did not harm Xing Sihai's family, he also paid a big pearl.

As a price, it is not a fair deal after all, which makes people convinced.

And Xing Sihai happened to meet us, which led to so many side issues.

That beautiful glass lamp turned out to be the great master of the Wusun Kingdom who used the witchcraft method to trap the souls of a princess of the Xiongnu and her attendants in a set of glass lamps, thus forming that extraordinary set.

Weird and wonderful wineware...

Listening to Princess Liejiao talking about this, Boss Liu asked very puzzledly, even if the great master of Wusun Kingdom thousands of years ago had that magical power, he could trap a person's soul in a glazed lamp, but he was trapped in a glazed lamp.

How can they among them perceive the quality of wine and whether it is poisonous?

Princess Liejiao explained that the Xiongnu people lived in the cold desert for a long time, ate meat, and used wine as tea to resist the severe cold in winter, so they knew how to drink wine - and the wine was light and mellow, so naturally

There is essence contained in it, which is not difficult to distinguish.

As for why they can know whether the wine is poisonous, it is because when the glass cup is fired, silver powder is added to it. Once poisoned, it will turn black. Although it is extremely slight and difficult for ordinary people to see, they understand wine quite well.

They know the truth with bright eyes and a clear understanding.

In addition, the reason why they stayed there for a thousand years and did not dare to violate their original oath was because of the witchcraft of the Grand Master, which made them unable to feel the passage of time and worried that if they disobeyed, they would be sent to death by the Grand Master.

Hell, and it affects the family...

Regardless of whether what Princess Liejiao said is true or false, for us, we have achieved our goal. Not only do we know the mystery of the man named Fang, but we have also seen his master, Princess Liejiao, and understand why he

Cleverly obtain Xing Sihai's family heirlooms.

So after hearing this, Mr. Liu stood up, thanked him and prepared to leave.

Princess Liejiao asked to stay, "Apart from those glass lamps, don't you want to hear my lady tell you something else? Besides, you didn't come here accidentally, but this lady arranged it this way..."

.

We can only sit down again. Mrs. Liejiao is right. With her cultivation and the magic skills of the man named Fang, there is no way that we broke in rashly. She must have deliberately led us here.

------Besides, with her identity, status and conduct, how could she let a few soldiers enter her cave mausoleum casually?

It's just that Princess Liejiao, the spirit of a princess from thousands of years ago, took great pains to invite us here. What is her plan? And she actually said that besides the glass cup, she seemed to have something important to tell us.

Same.

It seems that in addition to the fact that it is easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away, there is also a saying that it is difficult to get out of a cave out of curiosity!

Anyway, without her consent and sending someone to lead the way, it would be difficult for us to go out, so we simply made peace with it as we came, and sat quietly to see what she wanted to do.

Boss Liu said very politely, if the princess has any advice, please tell her directly.

Princess Liejiao said that there were nine pieces in the set of glazed lamps, which she had brought into the Central Plains back then. Now seven of them have been found, and two are still missing. Recently, she has sensed that if the remaining two are not recovered in time, they will be lost.

There is a possibility that she will never return and never appear in her homeland of China again. That’s why she wants to trouble us and help her find the remaining two glass lamps...

Isn't this pure nonsense? We are paid by ***, we eat by ***, and we have been away from the camp for such a long time. What we need is to go back immediately, and we will definitely not help someone who has died for a thousand years.

What are the dead souls looking for?

Moreover, we don’t know Princess Lie Jiao’s Taoist magic, but with so many aquatic spirits under her, they must be numerous, and their Taoism is very shallow. At least, the man named Fang can definitely find the two glazed lamps for her.

How can we be used?

As expected, after hearing Princess Liejiao's words, Mr. Liu immediately stood up and said that he was involved in military affairs and could not help himself. There was no order from the superior, so he could not help but obey. He also asked the princess for her forgiveness, etc. He declined very tactfully and decisively.

Princess Liejiao seemed to have known for a long time that we would not agree to take over, and she still said calmly, "Of course she knows this. It's just that in this world, no one is employed in vain, and she will naturally give generous gifts to him."

Gifts to each other? Haha! For us, even if you give us gold and silver, we still have to hand it over to the public, and what we get is still only rewards and commendations. What's more, she is a thousand-year-old undead, what kind of gifts can she give us!

Seeing that we were still indifferent, Princess Liejiao said confidently, I believe we will be deeply interested in that generous gift!

It’s really ridiculous! I think back then, when we discovered the treasure in the Red Scarf Army’s treasury, we just got a piece of commendation and a medal. Could it be that she would give us something more valuable? You know, even though she

Being a princess and a concubine can be said to be a gift of gold, but the past has faded away, and now she has no emperor to support her, and things are going from bad to worse.

However, Princess Liejiao said only two words about the generous gift, and we were all stunned - because those two words were not gold, silver, pearls, jade, treasures and curios, but "military merit"!

As a soldier, there is nothing more important than achieving military merit! Every soldier has a dream of being a general in his heart, and the steps leading to the throne of a general are all military merits!

It seems that this hunting princess is really powerful. She knows that ordinary money and other things cannot make us violate military orders and work for her, so she throws out a very tempting thing.

But, what military achievements can she make for us?

Boss Liu had no intention of leaving immediately, but asked very solemnly, "Princess, how can the search for a glazed lamp be linked to military merit?"

Princess Liejiao still said confidently, because the two glazed lamps have now fallen into the hands of the enemy chiefs in the East and will be shipped overseas in the near future. Then they will be like water flowing eastward, never to return!

It turns out that the Japanese invaders burned, killed, and looted all over China, plundered countless gold, silver, pearls, jade, and antique treasures, and smuggled them all back to their hometown in the East. Among the batch of treasures that were recently ready to be shipped was Princess Hunting Beauty.

The two glass lamps mentioned...

However, there is no need for Princess Liejiao to remind us, we all know that. Not to mention transporting gold and silver treasures back to the East, their little country has even transported captive civilians back to China. This is already the case.

It's an open secret, it's just that we have no solution for the time being.

Seeing that we were still indifferent and unmoved, Princess Liejiao told us that in addition to her two glazed lamps, the batch of treasures they shipped this time contained many priceless and unique things.

Once lost, it will never be possible to return to China!

Seeing that Princess Liejiao spoke so solemnly, Platoon Leader Huo quickly asked for advice on what exactly was in the batch of treasures that were about to be transported to the East by the Japanese army.

Princess Liejiao replied, "There are countless, let me give you one example! Have you ever heard of the wind-waiting seismograph made by Zhang Ziping (Zhang Heng) during the Han Dynasty?"

Haha, no matter how ignorant we are, it’s impossible that we haven’t heard of something close to a divine object! I just heard someone once say that the wind-waiting seismometer was destroyed by a court order shortly after Zhang Ziping’s death.

, no longer exists, how could it be kidnapped by a little ***?

Later, the wind seismometers that appeared in various dynasties were all imitations by later generations and had no effect at all - either false alarms occurred one after another, or there was no movement when earthquakes actually occurred.

Could it be that what Princess Lie Jiao said was that among the treasures that the young lady robbed this time, there was a wind-waiting seismic instrument?

Besides, the real Houfeng Seismometer has been lost for thousands of years, and the imitations of later generations have no practical effect, so why do we need it?

Boss Liu told our questions to Princess Liejiao, saying that we are in troubled times now and human life is like grass. How can we still care about gold and silver treasures? Isn't this putting heavy things over people? Besides, the wind-waiting seismometer

, it is said that it was destroyed in the Han Dynasty for nearly two thousand years, and the imitations of later generations have no actual value, etc.

Princess Liejiao did not directly answer Boss Liu's question. Instead, she said something incomprehensible. Do you know why the Han Dynasty destroyed the wind-waiting seismometer? Why did later generations make numerous imitations for thousands of years, but none could achieve the goal?

How good is the wind seismometer made by Zhang Ziping?

We really don’t know this! So you look at me, I look at him, and finally focus on Boss Liu.

Boss Liu, who had always been well-informed, smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying that he didn't know.

Because we have also heard an old private school teacher talk about the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty. The Biography of Zhang Heng", saying that the book records in detail the principles and production methods of the Houfeng seismograph. However, the seismographs imitated by later generations according to what he said are basically

It has no effect.

On the contrary, those unofficial legends are very vivid about the whereabouts of the Houfeng seismograph. It is said that after Zhang Ziping's death, the Houfeng seismograph buzzed at night, making people cry and cry. Later, when Longxi was earthquake again, it actually malfunctioned.

Not reported.

The important ministers of the temple at that time believed that Zhang Ziping's wind-preserving seismic instrument was an ominous and evil thing. After its owner died, it buzzed like a ghost. Therefore, he wrote a letter requesting that it be returned to the furnace to mint coins to extinguish his spirit...

Seeing our confused looks, Princess Liejiao told us that Zhang Ziping's original wind and seismograph had indeed been destroyed in the Han Dynasty and turned into a pile of copper plates. Although "Book of the Later Han Dynasty. Biography of Zhang Heng"

There was a special chapter describing it, but only its appearance was known, not its essence, so I copied it according to what it said. Of course, it is not the same as the original Houfeng seismograph.

However, Zhang Ziping had already anticipated this and knew that after his death, the gang of treacherous eunuchs in the court would definitely slander him and even trick the Holy One into destroying the Hou Feng seismograph.

Therefore, after the book "Lingxian", he drafted another "Lingxian Exegesis", which recorded very obscurely the method of making the Houfeng seismograph...

Of course this kind of ancient book cannot be plundered by little devils!

So after listening to Princess Liejiao talking about this, Boss Liu immediately became eager and asked Princess Liejiao where is this book now? Among the treasures that will be shipped to the East, besides this ancient book, what other important items are there?

something?

Princess Liejiao said that wherever they went, those Japanese devils looted the treasury, robbed the people, dug up graves and robbed the tombs, digging three feet into the ground, and hid many rare and rare artifacts either from the officials or from the people.

The treasures are all in it.

In addition to the Zhang Ziping posthumous work she gave as an example, there are many other astonishing things. There is still a chance to recover the lost city, but once those ancient books and spiritual objects are lost or damaged, they will never have the chance to see the light of day again!

The few of us looked at each other and smiled. If we could really recapture those things from the little ***, it would definitely be much more important than recapturing Shannan Prefecture - this military achievement is certainly not small!

Before we agreed to take over, Princess Liejiao’s words made us overjoyed!

Because Princess Liejiao said that in the near future, the little girl will transport the treasures to a secret airport hundreds of miles away, and our best way is to sneak into the vicinity of the airport in advance and blow up those planes.
To be continued...
