Professor Dong said excitedly: "It can't be calculated like this! It can't be calculated like this! In the Tang Dynasty, gold products were relatively rare. Among the gold and silver vessels unearthed so far, there has never been such a large golden Buddha. It can be said that this The Golden Buddha is a priceless treasure!"
Ye Laoze sighed: "During the Tang Emperor Gaozong and Wu Zetian periods, Buddhism was worshiped and Taoism was suppressed. This can be seen from this. In the underground palace of the Ming Dynasty, there was a golden Buddha made with so much gold, but there was not even a Taoist stone statue. .”
"Hmph, I think Wu Zetian only worships Buddhism and Taoism on the surface, but actually believes in Taoism. If not, how could the entire Qianling Mausoleum's magical formations be created by Taoist masters? Hand." Ding Laosan suddenly proposed a novel and bold point of view, and even Professor Dong was stunned for a moment.
At this time, Wang Qi also said: "What Mr. Ding Sanye said is not unreasonable. In the early Tang Dynasty, there were two great masters - Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng. They used the Taoist hexagram calculation method to co-author "Tui Bei Tu" This book is the most famous prophetic book. It predicted China's national destiny for more than two thousand years. The predictions were quite accurate, which frightened the rulers of all dynasties and has always been listed as a banned book. "Tui Bei Tu" once predicted that Wu Zetian would seize the Li family and proclaim himself emperor. It was precisely because of this prophecy that Wu Zetian was persecuted in her early years and even had to become a nun. She was burdened by Taoism and benefited from Buddhism. Perhaps this was the real reason why Wu Zetian worshiped Buddhism and suppressed Taoism, but she still knew the power of Taoism in her heart, so the design of her tomb was ultimately left to Taoist experts."
"The opinions of both of you are indeed worthy of in-depth exploration. Xiao Li, please quickly write it down and study it carefully after you go back." At this time, Li Su was still holding a camera to take pictures of the Golden Buddha. After hearing Professor Dong's instructions, he hurriedly took it out. The pen and paper started to take notes.
At this time, Luo Zi suddenly said: "Huh? Where has Mr. Lei gone?"
Everyone raised their heads and saw that Lei Kun was missing. Ding Laosan felt a little in his heart, maybe this guy wanted to steal something. Thinking of this, he quickly said: "Everyone split up and look for it."
At this moment, Lei Kun poked his head out from a nearby room: "No need to look for it, I'm here."
"Why did Brother Lei run away alone? If he encountered any agency, there was no one to take care of him." Mr. Ye said.
"Haha, I just took a look at it casually, so I'd like to bother you all."
Seeing that Lei Kun did not go far alone, Ding Laosan felt a stone fall in his heart. He always felt that Lei Kun was a bit sinister. People who practiced ghost ways would not have any good feelings in Ding Laosan's heart. impression.
Everyone continued to walk forward. This underground palace was indeed big enough, and there were exquisite objects everywhere. Everyone felt dizzy, as if they were visiting a large museum.
Fortunately, perhaps due to taboos, there were no traps set up in the palace, and no evil and filthy things were encountered, so everyone felt relaxed and at ease.
The group of people walked around the underground palace and came to a small hall with a strange name, "Netherworld Palace".
Professor Dong was very puzzled: "The layout of this underground palace is largely based on the architectural layout of the Daming Palace in the Tang Dynasty, especially the names of the major palaces. They basically copied the palace names of the Daming Palace. But But I have never heard that there is something called Nether Palace in the Daming Palace."
Mr. Ye said: "Perhaps it is not recorded in history books."
Ding Laosan chuckled: "This is a mausoleum after all, and it cannot be completely based on the place where living people live. It is reasonable to build an additional 'Netherworld Palace'."
Luo Zi asked in a low voice from behind: "Where is this Daming Palace?"
Li Su replied seriously: "The Daming Palace is a forbidden garden in Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty. It is one of the most magnificent and largest palace complexes in the history of the world. The Daming Palace was built in the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty. The original intention of the construction was to house the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan. Fulfilling filial piety. However, Li Yuan passed away before it was completed, and the construction of the Daming Palace also stopped. Later, Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty re-expanded it and moved it into the Daming Palace to govern. The Daming Palace became the political center of the Tang Empire. Daming Palace Zhou It is 7.6 kilometers long and covers an area of 3.2 square kilometers, which is equivalent to 500 football fields and four times the size of the Forbidden City in Beijing. It is a pity that it was destroyed by the military in Qianning for three years."
After hearing what Li Su said, Yu Fei sighed in surprise: "Four times the size of the Forbidden City! How did such a large palace get into the Qianling Mausoleum!"
Professor Dong turned around and replied: "This underground palace is scaled down based on the Daming Palace. It is about one-tenth the size of the original Daming Palace."
Ding Laosan joked: "Then this can be regarded as a 'Xiao Ming Palace', hehe!"
As everyone said this, they stepped into this 'Netherworld Palace'.
Not only does this 'Netherworld Palace' have a strange name, but the layout inside is also quite special. The floor is paved with black strips of stone, and even the walls are painted with murals on a black background. The murals are full of images of Rakshasa evil spirits. In the middle of the hall, there is a desk, and on the desk is a one-meter-tall bronze statue. The appearance of this bronze statue is terrifying and terrifying.
"Damn, why is there such a sinister atmosphere in this room?" As soon as he entered the 'Netherworld Palace', Ding Laosan felt that something was wrong.
"There won't be anything evil in here, please be careful." Wang Qi also noticed the unusual atmosphere.
Everyone else immediately became nervous. Li Su, who had been shooting everywhere with his camera just now, hurriedly hid in the middle of the crowd, fearing that another monster or zombie would pop out from the side.
At this moment, Lei Kun suddenly stepped forward alone, knelt down in front of the bronze statue and kowtowed respectfully.
"Master Lei, what are you kneeling down to worship? It's like you're meeting your ancestors." Ding Laosan asked.
Lei Kun kowtowed nine times before slowly standing up and saying, "This is the 'Nine Netherworld God', one of the most powerful gods in the ghost world."
"Hey, let's put it this way, this god can really be regarded as the ancestor of Lei Ye." Lei Kun practiced the art of ghosts, so it is reasonable to worship the gods of the ghost world.
Yu Fei suddenly discovered that on the desk, in addition to the bronze statue of the 'Nine Netherworld God', there was also a strange-shaped black stone.
"What is this?" Yu Fei asked.
Lei Kun said excitedly: "This is the 'Xuanming Divine Stone'! The most precious treasure in the ghost world!"
"The treasure of the ghost world? Hey, Master Lei, are you kidding? Just such a black stone is the treasure of the ghost world?" Ding Laosan said, and took the 'Xuanming Divine Stone' with his hands.
Before Lei Kun could stop him, Ding Laosan had already got the 'Xuanming Divine Stone' in his hand.
"There's nothing special about it, this..." Before Ding Laosan finished speaking, he suddenly felt dizzy.
Ding Hao quickly stepped forward to support Ding Laosan. Unexpectedly, even Ding Hao immediately felt dizzy and began to sway.
