Chapter 156 Mysterious, unusual 【Request a ticket】
That bronze box was used by the Koreans to hold the Sendai Pillar, and was given to Ye Yufu by Zhao Huaizhong.
He opened the copper box, and a sinister aura leaked out.
The storage space in the box is not small, but it can’t load living creatures like swallowing an empty gourd. Inside is a rusted bronze brief book.
The slips are spread out, and there are many patterns on them, but no writing. It is a picture scroll formed by a pair of copper slips.
In addition, there are three things in the box, a round tripod, a short spear and a bronze mask, all of which are cold and biting.
"Where did these things come from, the Yin Qi is so heavy?" Zhao Huaizhong asked.
"Some time ago, we found a tomb buried deep under the Cangshan mountains. Mu Qingkong took people to open the tomb." Bai Yao said.
Digging tombs is a practice that has existed since ancient times.
The kings of the dynasties and dynasties made great efforts to build large tombs, dig deep and hide them, and have numerous organs. One of the main reasons is to prevent theft.
Ye Yufu has always had a team to excavate tombs, which can supplement the cost of the palace.
Followed by many cultivation techniques, the secrets of heaven and earth from a long time ago are also buried in the tomb, from which a lot of historical contexts about a longer period can be excavated.
Mu Qingkong is the master of the Five Great Ghosts and Hell Techniques. He can enter the underworld at night and communicate with ghosts, so he doesn't need to light wax at all.
Most of the tomb-opening teams in the mansion are in charge of him.
The fact that the national team is doing this cannot be called robbing tombs, but 'archaeology', which is to excavate the wealth that belongs to all mankind.
The things in the copper box at this time are the objects that Mu Qingkong brought out of a certain tomb.
Zhao Huaizhong stretched out his hand, the power of the saint circulated, and he removed the gloomy aura nourished by the yin spirit energy on the utensil, and then took it up and looked at it carefully.
The bronze brief book stored in the box, after being taken out, grows in size to two feet square.
The animal tendons are used between the copper slips, which are woven into lines in series, which will last for a long time without damage.
The copper roll is unfolded.
The content engraved on the brief book is a huge and magnificent palace. In the depths of the palace, there is a square cauldron and two ancient bells hanging in the air. In the center, there is a mighty armor and a woman with a vivid form. image.
The weird thing is that there are several fairy tails under the woman's skirt, which are hidden.
She held a coffin with one hand, her eyes scarlet.
The picture suddenly became gloomy and eerie, filled with an evil atmosphere.
Zhao Huaizhong looked at the contents of the bronze slip: "The palace depicted above is the secret palace of Yin and Shang."
"Exactly."
Fan Qingzhou said: "We have made a simple comparison. The bronze slips obtained from the underground tombs in Cangshan describe the scene in the secret palace of Yin and Shang."
"Wei Chen judged that the owner of the Cangshan Tomb may have participated in the construction of the Yinshang Secret Palace during his lifetime, so he knew something about it."
"The ancient bells, cauldrons, and armors depicted on the bronze slips are consistent with some ancient records in the Yin and Shang periods, and they correspond to the grave goods buried in the secret palace following the destruction of the Yin and Shang periods.
The tripod in the picture scroll on the bronze slips has various birds and beasts on the four walls, as well as the hunting scene of the ancient ancestors, which is consistent with the legendary Yin and Shang tripods.
Ancient bells and armors, which are occasionally mentioned in some ancient books, are all ancient treasures in the Yin and Shang Dynasties…”
"Beside the coffin on this bronze slip, there is a banshee, apparently referring to the last monarch of the Shang Dynasty, Shang Zhou and the fox demon who confuses his ruin."
During the conversation, Zhao Huaizhong put the copper slip back into the bronze box.
The other items in the box are all instruments that can be used to make sacrifices to the altar.
Waiting for Zhao Huaizhong to see the contents in the box, Baiyao, Fan Qingzhou began to report other things:
"Recently, the mansion surveyed various places and found that as the demonic plague spread, some sect forces that were hidden from the world were born one after another.
Inheritances such as Heaven Patching Sect and Chaos Dao Sect, which have been circulated in ancient times, but rarely revealed traces, appeared one after another, and some descendants walked all over the world. "
"In addition to these sects, there are many long-standing clans, and some people have appeared."
Zhao Huaizhong nodded slightly. In recent years, the atmosphere of heaven and earth has changed, and some hidden sects have entered the world to come into contact with all beings, which is related to their own cultivation.
The Ji family and other ancient clans also showed traces one after another during this period.
In a world of great conflict and chaos, from another perspective, it is also an opportunity.
Ambitious and capable people or forces will be born in order to develop and expand.
Baiyao replied: "In addition, the mansion has been tracking the traces of Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng.
His whereabouts are a mystery, and he has been missing for several months, and he has not returned to Zhao.
But our spies hidden in Handan of Zhao Ren secretly paid attention to Pingyuan Junfu, but found some abnormalities in the past few days. "
said again: "Your Majesty, you can open the No. 6 mirror and you will know at a glance."
Last time, Lao Sikong brought six auxiliary mirrors made by imitating the bone mirror.
Zhao Huaizhong gave them all to Ye Yufu for use.
The six imitation mirrors, plus the original one, make a total of seven mirrors, corresponding to the numbers from 1 to 7.
There are generals in the mansion who will take them with them when they go out on a mission to facilitate communication.
At this time, Zhao Huaizhong took out the main mirror of the bone mirror, and saw that its surface was shaking slowly, and a picture like the reflection of water waves appeared.
"Second mirror No. 6 was taken away by Pei Yu. After he received the news, he infiltrated Zhao State and was following the guests in Pingyuan's mansion for the past few days."
During the Warring States Period, the elites kept their disciples in their houses, which was a manifestation of their own power.
All the powerful and powerful people in all countries have the habit of raising guards.
Pingyuan Jun is known for his prestige, there are many defectors, and he has as many as a thousand followers.
Pei Yu's voice appeared in the picture of the bone mirror:
"Your Majesty, the two deputy historians, after I infiltrated the Zhaojing HD, I secretly monitored the Pingyuan Palace.
A few days ago, Zhang Song, Lu Xiu, and other celebrities in the mansion went out of the mansion together, and their subordinates were following the two. "
The change of the picture of the bone mirror reflects a col in a barren mountain.
Pei Yu didn't know where he was hiding. The bone mirror he was holding was a perspective looking down from mid-air.
A small team of seven or eight people was reflected in the mirror, all riding on horses, wearing black robes, and a black veil covering their faces around their heads.
The whole team is secretive.
They are resting in the col.
Strangely, the col where they stayed was filled with a kind of black mist.
The mist flowed like a rhythm of life.
After a while, the team got back on their horses and galloped away quickly, and the black energy also disappeared.
The picture of the bone mirror shook, and Pei Yu then came to the col where the team stopped just now to investigate the situation.
In the mirror, Pei Yu's voice came out again:
"After Zhang Song, Lu Xiu and others left Pingyuan Jun's Mansion, they went all the way east, marching day and night, and now they are approaching the border of Zhaojing.
This is not far from Jiyang, an important frontier town in Zhaojing. If you go further, you will enter the area where Yan, Zhao, and Qi meet, and it is not far from Weijing. "
Pei Yu condensed the sound into a thread and sent it into the mirror.
And there was a very strange scene in the image of the bone mirror he was holding.
The col where the team was just now was dead silent at the moment, the trees and weeds had all withered.
There are rat cave ant nests on the ground, and the snakes, insects and rat ants are all dead without exception.
These plants and animals seem to have been drained of their vitality by something, and the corpses are shriveled and devoid of any moisture.
The wind blew, and a big tree in the mountain collapsed and disappeared in a blink of an eye, and the dust was flying.
"What is it, even the vitality contained in the grass and trees has been extracted and withered into ashes."
The position of Fan Qingzhou and Baiyao on the side of Zhao Huaizhong also followed the scene in the mirror.
At this time, another figure appeared in the screen, but it was another Ye Yufu general who was tracking with Pei Yu, Yin Wugou, the head of Ye Yu's sixteen attendants.
He was looking at the traces on the ground, his face solemn: "It's that kind of black gas, where it covers, everything is dead."
After Pei Yu and the others checked it out, they continued to follow.
The picture in the mirror also disappeared.
"Pingyuan Jun's house visitor, what are you doing at the border of the Zhao people?"
"At the junction of Zhao and Qi Yan, there is still a confrontation at this moment."
Baiyao pondered: "Maybe it has something to do with the war between several countries."
A few months ago, the Five Kingdoms failed to unite and turned to attack Qi.
Later, when Qin destroyed Han, the whole world was shocked, and the attack on Qi of the Five Kingdoms was put on hold.
However, the coalition forces of several countries have not retreated, and some soldiers are still on the border of Qi people. At this time, there are still wars, but the scale is not large.
"According to Wei Chen, the visitors from the Pingyuan monarch's mansion to the border of the Zhao people have little to do with the fact that several countries are still at war with the Qi people, but it must have something to do with that weird black air..." Fan Qingzhou said.
Zhao Huaizhong, Baiyao and Fan Qingzhou, all three felt that something was unusual.
Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng disappeared for several months, which may also be related to the strange behavior of his housekeeper at this time.
After Baiyao and the others left, Zhao Huaizhong returned to Wuying Hall in the evening.
In the evening, after Jiang Yan was asleep, he suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart, so he got up and got out of bed, went to the study in Wuying Hall, and took out the bone mirror.
The turquoise mana ripples ripple on the mirror surface.
The mental fluctuation just now was because of the message from this ancient mirror that had been refined.
Zhao Huaizhong opened it, and the picture passed by Pei Yu appeared in the mirror again, showing the scene on the other side.
"Where are you now?" Zhao Huaizhong asked Pei Yu.
"The Jade City on the border of the Yan people is next to Qi!" Pei Yu's voice was hoarse, and his heart was obviously not at peace.
