Hearing what Andrew said, Xiangyu's expression suddenly became tense. Her big eyes moved roundly, and after scanning the whole house a few times, she asked Andrew: "Professor, what did you hear?"
, it seemed like I didn’t hear anything.”
Andrew did not answer Xiangyu's question, but looked at me and asked: "Zhou, did you hear it?"
I stared at Andrew and opened and closed my mouth gently, "I heard it, it was the sound of children playing."
As soon as she heard what I said, Xiangyu's face suddenly changed. She moved towards me, then pulled the corner of my clothes twice and said, "Zhou Cang, don't scare me, this Poyang
Where does the sound of children playing at the bottom of the lake come from?”
I knew Xiangyu was scared and didn't want to scare her, so I comforted her and said, "It's okay, we are here."
Zhang Jisheng, who was on the side, also walked toward me with a puzzled look on his face. As he walked, he said, "Zhou Cang, I didn't hear anything. What riddles are you and Andrew playing?"
"Jisheng Xiangyu, the sounds at the bottom of the lake are not transmitted through the air, they all need a medium. For example, we can hear the sound of the flute in the water, and we can hear the sound of the copper bells underground by lying on the bluestone floor tiles in the yard.
The sound in this room must also be transmitted through the medium. Just sit down and lie on this Eight Immortals table and listen." I said.
Zhang Jisheng turned pale when I said that. He looked at the two stools next to the Eight Immortals table. He hesitated for a moment, but still did not dare to sit on them. As if there was someone sitting on the stools, he carefully walked around the stools and walked
I went to the table in front of the Eight Immortals, bent down and listened to the table for a while, then as if someone suddenly slapped me on the back, I stood up straight in shock, my lips were trembling, but I couldn't say anything for a long time.
In one sentence.
"Jisheng, did you really hear that?" Xiangyu was standing aside and saw that Zhang Jisheng's face turned pale and he was so frightened that he couldn't say a word. Although the look on his face was extremely frightened, he still asked.
"Yes, yes, it's a child's laughter, a child's laughter." Zhang Jisheng's tongue seemed a little unable to straighten, and he repeated the same word several times.
In fact, compared to the iron worms in the yard, it is these invisible existences that are more fascinating.
I probably experienced it once in the Ghost Ship, so Andrew and I were relatively calm.
But at this time, Zhang Jisheng seemed to be suddenly awakened from a dream. He left the Eight Immortals Table, walked to my side, looked at me with a very empty look, and then asked quietly: "Zhou Cang, have you ever been there?"
Since entering this room, I haven't seen you lying on that table or stool, so why can you hear those noises?"
To be honest, I was not frightened by the sound of children playing in the room. Instead, I was frightened by the living Zhang Jisheng in front of me. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really couldn't believe that a person's face could look like this.
He was so ugly that I even doubted that he was still the same Zhang Jisheng who was my classmate?
I felt uncomfortable being stared at by him, so I turned my face away, and then said, "I don't know, maybe it's because I'm sick."
"Zhou Cang, before he died, Lao Li said that there are things down here that will claim his master and asked you to protect yourself. What do you mean by this?" Zhang Jisheng said reluctantly.
"I don't want to answer your question. You are not qualified to mention Lao Li." Although I always knew that Zhang Jisheng was close to me, maybe it was because of the horoscope, but I didn't expect that I would break up with him first.
Shameless, it’s really touching.
"What secrets do you have that can make the things down here recognize you as their master? Did you get it in the ancient temple? We narrowly escaped death together in the ancient temple. You got the treasure and you hid it like this, Zhou Cang,
I really can’t see that you, who are usually so polite and weak, are actually so ambitious.” Zhang Jisheng shouted to me with red eyes.
"Jisheng, what's wrong with you? Why do you suddenly seem to be a different person? Even if Zhou Cang found something in the ancient temple, it was obtained by his own ability. What does it have to do with you? Your painting
The appearance is really incredible." Xiangyu's words were obviously biased towards me.
I don't know if it was because he didn't get Xiangyu's support, but Zhang Jisheng seemed to be suddenly irritated. He grabbed my wrist and shouted loudly: "Don't think this woman is simple. The secrets hidden in her may be bigger than...
You went even further. What you said will shock everyone. Why do you think this foreigner appeared at the Poyang Lake at the same time as us by such a coincidence..."
Before Zhang Jisheng finished speaking, Xiangyu rushed forward, trying to break away his hand that grabbed my wrist. At this moment, the copper bell in my hand that was pulled out of the agarwood carving in the bronze tripod,
While we were pushing and shoving, there was a sudden sound.
This sound made Zhang Jisheng hold his head with both hands and squat on the ground as if in extreme pain.
"Zhou, it seems that he suddenly changed into a different person because of an illusion. The copper bell in your hand seems to be able to dispel the illusion. Hurry up and shake it on his head a few more times." He stayed aside silently.
The speechless Andrew suddenly said.
Hearing what Andrew said, I didn't have time to think too much. I grabbed the copper bell in my hand and shook it wildly on Zhang Jisheng's head. Zhang Jisheng held his head and kept squatting on the ground moaning. I didn't know what the bell was.
Didn't work.
After about two or three minutes, Zhang Jisheng finally stood up slowly and said to us: "There is something wrong with that bronze mirror."
As soon as he said this, our eyes almost turned to the bronze mirror placed on the bill at the same time.
The room we entered is probably the decoration of a central hall in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The furniture in the room is divided according to the central axis. There is a long table in the middle against the wall. In front of the table is the Eight Immortals Table.
There is a Taishi chair on the left and right. A pair of seats and a coffee table are placed on each side of the room.
The bronze mirror Zhang Jisheng mentioned was placed in the center of the long table.
"When I was just lying on the Eight Immortals Table, my eyes happened to meet the mirror behind the Eight Immortals Table, but what was reflected in the bronze mirror was not my face, but a face without eyes. At the same time as the face in the mirror
There were also the sounds of children playing. I was frightened and stood up. However, there was an air of boredom lingering in my chest. It felt like my mind was being controlled by something.
It’s like living there.”
Zhang Jisheng still had lingering fears on his face, and it looked like he was really frightened.
I moved closer to the bronze mirror, but found a direction where I was not facing the mirror head-on, and then looked at the mirror carefully.
This bronze mirror is about eight inches in diameter. The handle of the mirror is carved with a crouching unicorn. The four corners of the mirror body are turtles, dragons, phoenixes, and tigers. Corresponding to the four corners are Bagua. In addition to Bagua, there are twelve zodiac signs. The most special one is
On the outside of the zodiac, there are twenty-four characters written on the outline of the mirror. They are still the special characters.
This bronze mirror looks indescribably familiar, but I can guarantee that I have never seen this thing in my current memory.
However, the more I looked at this ancient mirror, the more I felt that I had seen this thing before. That feeling of knowing it but not being able to remember it was really uncomfortable.
"Zhou, I think these twenty-four characters-like patterns on the outer contour of the bronze mirror are related to the twenty-four solar terms in China. Have you seen any clues?" Andrew didn't know when he stood up.
When he got behind me, I was so absorbed in observing the bronze mirror that I didn't notice it at all, so he suddenly spoke, which really shocked me.
"I think this bronze mirror is very familiar, but I can't tell where the familiarity comes from. Have you ever seen this thing?" I turned back and said to Xiangyu and Andrew.
Zhang Jisheng was probably frightened, so he never dared to look at the bronze mirror again. I don't know what kind of mental process he went through just now. Anyway, this kid is trembling now.
I had just been choked by him for no reason, and I was still feeling sulky in my heart. But now that I saw his appearance, my anger disappeared instantly, and I felt that he was also an innocent victim.
"Zhou Cang, I have followed the professor and seen many unearthed cultural relics over the years. This is indeed the first time I have seen such a bronze mirror. Professor, have you ever come into contact with such cultural relics?" Xiang Yu said.
"Zhou, do you think that the twenty-four patterns on the outline of this bronze mirror are very similar to the graffiti we saw in the tunnel." Andrew stared at the bronze mirror and said suddenly.
