Chapter 56 The New Curse

We are located in the center of the Mercury Way, with nowhere to lean on and nowhere to support us. Gu Wenmin was trapped in the same place and moved in a terrible way. The only gecko palms were on both of us, and everyone in front could not think of what to do. After a moment of delay, I felt numb on my back. The feeling of being peeped at was getting stronger and stronger, which made me unable to help but look down again, thinking that no matter what the fuck was, I first saw what it was.

Unexpectedly, when I looked down this time, I didn’t see the scene before. I didn’t have a big head with a gas mask or a small head. To be honest, it was that there was no shadow reflected in the bronze mirror! My heart skipped a beat, thinking how could this happen? Could it be that I just climbed forward and moved the angle, so no shadow shone in?

Or maybe the weird big face I just saw with a gas mask was just an illusion for me? At this moment, Gu Wenmin looked quite angry and said something unlucky. I listened to the voice and couldn't help but be diverted. I knew that now was not the time to care about the bronze mirror, so it was important to save Gu Wenmin first. Now, I can only help her in this situation.

Then I thought of a solution and told Gu Wenmin to ask her to tighten her body as tight as possible and press it to the top of the tomb. Then I climbed up and just covered her whole body in her arms and attached to her back. In this way, when she moved, her body would not be hung upside down, but would fall into my arms. We formed an overlapping posture of holding our backs, and crawled forward with our hands and feet, and the speed became faster. At that moment, when I saw our hands and feet move at the same time, a very strange idea suddenly appeared. We overlapped together and only saw my body, but we could see four hands and four feet. Isn’t it similar to a human-shaped spider?

After a while, we finally arrived at the top of the tomb. The two of us let go of the gecko palm, jumped to the ground, and were down to the ground, and then we breathed a sigh of relief. Tofu said to the robots: "It seems that your equipment is also a paralyzer. Remember next time, you can't make this mistake again." Professor Lin and the other two were studying the inscriptions on the surface of the bronze tripod, with a focused look on it. It seemed that something was discovered. I looked at the bronze tripod and saw dense inscriptions on it, but we couldn't understand any of the words on it, but there was still a picture next to the inscription. I was attracted by the contents in the drawing at a glance.

In conjunction with this inscription, there are seven paintings in total. The pictures are not complicated, the lines are rough, and cloud patterns are floating around, and seven strange scenes can be seen inside. In the painting, there is a man wearing a feather robe, a knotted scarf, and dressed as a priest, who should be the owner of the tomb. In the first picture, this person is holding a sword and fighting a strange beast.

In the second picture, Xu Fu was accepting the worship of everyone, with a proud look on his face. It was probably because he was respected by the evil beasts. The following few pictures were the scenes of him patrolling with the First Emperor, but the most peculiar ones were the last two. The last two pictures, one was the scene of taking people out to sea to find the fairy mountain, and the other was the scene of a god giving the title after climbing the fairy mountain.

There are many legends about Xu Fu. Historically, he is believed to be only one of the many priests recruited by Qin Shihuang. Because he is good at catering to the First Emperor, he is highly favored. From a historical perspective, this person greatly encouraged Qin Shihuang's stupidity in his later years. In folk unofficial history, Xu Fu was a folk alien who once killed evil beasts in a place called "Hei Niuling" in Henan, subdued demons and was highly admired, and was later recruited by Qin Shihuang into the palace.

Although Tofu and I couldn't understand the inscriptions on the tripod, we could see at a glance that the patterns on the tripod roughly recorded the three most important things in Xu Fu's life, one was to kill evil beasts and make a name for themselves, two was to accompany Qin Shihuang, and three was to go to sea. Because of these three things, we have become a legendary figure for thousands of years, and after Xu Fu, there was no Xu Fu again.

We know more or less about the previous deeds, but the last one made everyone wonder. Tofu pointed to the scene where the gods gave the crown in the last picture and said, "It seems that the things recorded on this tripod are not true. According to this statement, Xu Fu really found an immortal later? The immortal even put a crown on him and asked him to be an immortal together? Isn't this nonsense? If he really became an immortal, why would he build this tomb?"

Some people have said: the true history of human beings is buried underground. Why do archaeological teams like to dig tombs? One is because of the cultural relics in the tombs, and the other is because of the history in the tombs. Because of many things, the owner of the tomb cannot disclose it when he is alive, but after his death, he often records some extremely secret things. Therefore, some people say that the history hidden in the tombs is the real history.

If a person wants to record his life in the tomb, he will definitely not lie, but the content on the bronze tripod is too strange at the moment, which makes us puzzled. Tofu can't help but urge Professor Lin: "Do you see anything? What does this word mean? Are you talking about it? Is there any Liuhe seal written on it? "

Professor Lin pushed his glasses, his expression looked very strange, and said, "This is not a record of the deeds of the tomb owner."

Not a record of deeds?

As a ritual vessel, the bronze tripod has always been known for its precious inscriptions. It is not the life of the tomb owner. What would it be? Tofu and I looked at Professor Lin and waited for him to speak. Professor Lin looked strange and his voice trembled, saying, "This is a curse."

"Ah..." Gu Wenmin exclaimed in a low voice, saying, "What curse?"

Not only Professor Lin, Duan Fei and Wu Sidong's expressions were very ugly and gloomy, as if something big happened.

At this time, Duan Fei suddenly said, "Don't ask what you wrote, teacher, what should I do now?" Professor Lin looked at us and suddenly said, "Xiao Chen, Xiao Dou, and Officer Gu, you three should not move forward anymore, it's better to leave here." I couldn't help but hiss, knowing something was wrong, and said, "Uncle Lin, you have already fought, you just said that, isn't it too late? What is written on this inscription?"

Not only Duan Fei and Professor Lin refused to say that even Wu Sidong, who had always been inconsistent with me, had a very complicated expression.

He looked at me, and finally looked at Gu Wenmin with a blue face. After a moment, he said, "You know that there is no benefit in this thing. The teacher is planning for you. After all, you three are here to help. If it is really... it is not necessary." His words were a little confused, but I heard some clues and asked, "Is the curse on this inscription related to the three of us?"

impossible.

This is the underground palace of the Qin Dynasty more than two thousand years ago. How could it be related to the three of us modern people?

I went to see four robots. They are professional official thieves and are much better than us in professional ability. They seem to be able to understand the words of the Qin Dynasty, but the four of them have rarely had any fluctuations in their faces. Therefore, I can't tell anything wrong from them. After I asked, Robot No. 4 patted Tofu on the shoulder and said, "I think you three should leave first, this is a good thing for you."

Tofu and Robot No. 4 have a common hobby and have established a deep friendship. He heard this and punched the Robot No. 4's shoulder. Although he was timid, he was anxious and had always spoken without any restraint. He immediately said, "What's wrong with you guys? They talk more and more uncontrollable, and they are so silly that we can spread the problem. We have nothing to do with one or two, and I'm confused."

Robot No. 4 shrugged, and said to Tofu with a helpless tone, "This is a curse, a curse that cannot be seen or heard. Professor Lin... Of course, it also includes us. I don't want you three to be involved. It is a good thing that you cannot understand the text above." After Robot No. 4 said this, I couldn't help but notice something, thinking that this curse is targeting the people who can see this text and hear this text?

So, did Professor Lin and the other three who knew the Qin Dynasty's writings mean that they had been cursed after reading these words?

The reason why they refused to tell us the content of the inscription on the cauldron was that they did not want us to be cursed too?

Robot No. 4 has already made it clear, but it is difficult for me to understand. Not only me, but even Gu Wenmin.

Will a group of scholars and soldiers be scared by a curse engraved in a text?

Gu Wenmin frowned and said, "Is this curse really that powerful? I heard that carving curses in tombs is quite common abroad, but foreign archaeologists often dig tombs, aren't it still okay? Professor, are you too careful?"

Professor Lin opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, suddenly shut his mouth again and said, "We are just trying to ensure insurance."

Tofu was thinking about touching the treasure in Xu Fu's coffin. After a while, we almost died at the sea. After finally entering the back door, we let us out. This was too frustrating. Tofu said, "Don't, since you have been cursed, it's okay to have three of us. Beautiful Gu, are you afraid?"

Gu Wenmin shook his head, took out the pistol at his waist, and said, "As a policeman, I have the obligation to protect the people. In the face of difficulties and dangers, I cannot retreat behind others." Tofu hit the high five and said, "Good. Professor, you see that even the beauty Gu refused to leave. How can I leave the two old men, Lao Chen and I, how can you leave?"

Seeing that the three of us had made up their minds, Professor Lin showed a complicated look, was relieved and sighed, and said, "Since that's the case, I will tell you the content of the curse."
