Chapter 10 Chapter Ten Ancient Scrolls of the Qin Dynasty

When I fell, my left hand touched a loose slate, and the ground sank immediately, and everyone fell into a hole in the ground.It was really inconvenient not to have a light, couldn't see anything, and as soon as we fell in, the dust flew up, choking everyone to cough violently. The huge, hairy creature fell in and lay on top of me, licking it with its soft, wet tongue.I quickly understood that it was Bauer's big dog!I touched it carefully, and the three big dogs were all here, but Bauer didn't want them anymore.Staying in the dark just now, no one paid attention to these three big dogs, and almost forgot their existence.I hugged them, and remembered that I was pushed one by one by my relatives before, and no one would take care of them, and I suddenly felt a little sad.These three big dogs are quite well-behaved. They don't make noise or make noise, and they lie obediently on my knees.

Chen Jing lit her hiking bag with a lighter, and now she can only burn these things for lighting, otherwise the eyes will really become the ears of the deaf - decorations.Chen Jing also complained, why the Chinese things are so useless, the battery has been used for less than an hour, and the battery is dead.I found it funny when I heard it, and I dare to love that she is not Chinese, so why is it so awkward to hear what she said.Judging from her tone, it seems that she did not grow up in China. I think her temperament seems to be somewhat different from that of ordinary Chinese. This burrow is a very regular square shape, very spacious, with no decorations or shades.In a corner of the burrow, there is a corpse that has almost completely shattered. It seems that it should have been thousands of years old. If it wasn't sealed here, it might have turned into ashes.The air quality here is very poor, and the flames from the mountaineering bags are not very pure, but fortunately, we can breathe smoothly.

We looked up and saw that the stone slab above his grandma's head had been sealed, even if he could climb up, how would he open it?Xinhong and I are archaeologists, and we became interested when we saw the ancient corpse, so we went over to see it, but Chen Jing was not interested.Seeing that we ignored her, she seemed a little impatient, and asked, "Why don't you ask me what I'm here for?" "If you want to say it, you will naturally say it. Why should we bother." Xinhong replied lightly, but I shouted in my heart, hurry up and say it, and it is best to say whatever the names of the eighteenth generation of the ancestors are.

"Since you don't share the same path with that person, let me tell you that there is an artifact in the Tianshan Temple, and I came here to retrieve it." Chen Jing said very seriously. "Sacred Artifact?" After hearing what Chen Jing said, my interest in this temple began to increase. You must know that the cultural relics in history that can be called artifacts are all invaluable.These artifacts do not really have any mana, but have a magical origin, or have some kind of inexplicable magical effect.For example, when the Sui Dynasty was about to fall, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty found a red jade water tank among the people. Every night, a lot of blood would flow out of this water tank, which was no different from human blood; during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, a landlord named Li Yukang had A crystal bottle, said to be able to make dead trees spring, yellow flowers into red flowers.

These all belong to the category of artifacts, some are auspicious and some are unlucky.Throughout the ages, there are countless such legends, and of course there are both true and false, but if this kind of artifact can be spread, there will always be one or two that are true.When I heard Chen Jing take the initiative to say it, my heart suddenly became excited. If we found this artifact and took it out, wouldn't it be famous in history. I wanted to listen carefully to what the artifact Chen Jing was talking about, but unexpectedly she said in a disappointed voice: "I don't know exactly what kind of artifact is handed down from generation to generation. Anyway, there is really a Tianshan Temple, so it must be here .”

Chen Jing didn't waste any time, and just picked up the main points and said that there is a secret branch of the Miao nationality in China, called the Hongya nationality.They lived in what is now Guizhou in ancient times. Later, their patriarch was invited out of our village by a mysterious person.After ten years, the patriarch came back, and then he carved a dozen sentences in the clan's characters on a cliff. When I heard this, I was shocked. Could it be that the words on the cliff that Chen Jing mentioned were the Red Cliff Book? Xinhong saw that I was about to ask questions again, so he quickly stopped me. Chen Jing didn't notice my actions, and was still telling her story.Chen Jing said that it was indeed the Hongya Heavenly Book in Guanling County, Guizhou, but it has been handed down to this day, and people of the Hongya tribe can no longer understand the Hongya script.She only knows that the clansmen will guard this temple for generations, and each generation will choose a person to come here to worship and guard.As for how the foreigner knew about the Tianshan Temple, Chen Jing said that she didn't know. She found out that Bauer had mischievous plans for the Tianshan Temple because she discovered that Bauer had done a lot of investigations nearby, and she found out of.

Chen Jing also said that because of the Anti-Japanese War, the Hongya people in Guizhou emigrated to Africa. As for the situation of the Tianshan Temple, they don't know very well.In order to retrieve the artifact from the clan, Chen Jing came here.When I heard this, I suddenly realized, and I said that Chen Jing's tone was a little strange. It turned out that she was already an African. This is really a very bizarre story. It seems that Uncle Zou's purpose must be this handed down fetish. I remember that Uncle Zou is not a greedy person. Why does he want this handed down fetish so much?

"What did your previous patriarch who came back after going out for ten years do?" Xinhong asked curiously. "I don't know either. That patriarch was thousands of years ago, how would I know." "Xinhong, don't be so wordy." I saw the big dogs surrounding the ancient corpse, so I said, "Go over and have a look at that corpse, there seems to be something like a bamboo slip next to it." I don't dare to get close to the bones and bamboo slips, because they are at least a thousand years old, and I'm afraid they will be turned into ashes if I touch them.

That thing was indeed a scroll of bamboo slips, it was already in tatters, and the words engraved on it were difficult to read clearly.However, since bamboo slips were used, the skeleton may have been from a long time ago.Although the handwriting on the bamboo slips can no longer be read clearly, it can still be seen that it is Xiaozhuan.Xiaozhuan, also known as Qinzhuan, is a unified script created by Prime Minister Li Si, who simplified and canceled the variant characters of the other six countries on the basis of the original Dazhuan script used by the Qin State.Qin Zhuan remained popular in China until the end of the Western Han Dynasty, when it was gradually replaced by Lishu.

The bamboo slips are indeed about what happened during the Qin Dynasty, but because of the blurred handwriting, Xinhong and I can only understand some general content.The fire was about to go out soon, and we tried our best to finish reading the entire bamboo scroll in a hurry.However, when they finished reading the content, everyone was very surprised, it turns out that there are such things in the world. The bamboo slips seem to say that this person was entrusted by Qin Shihuang Yingzheng to go to the East China Sea to find something. We can't read the name of that thing, and we don't know what it is.On the second day after this man went to sea, Qin Shihuang issued a secret decree to invite him back to Xianyang.It turned out that Qin Shihuang asked him to go to sea was just a pretense, Qin Shihuang actually had a more important thing for him to do.

So this temple existed before the Qin Dynasty, how did Qin Shihuang know that there was such a place in the Western Regions?He said on the bamboo slips that after his transformation, Qin Shihuang broke his oath and locked him in the cave of this temple, and forced him to drink a glass of poisoned wine.He also said that because he knew that he might be killed by Qin Shihuang, he asked his cronies who went to the East China Sea to find that thing and hide it on an unknown island in the South China Sea before coming here to avenge Qin Shihuang. That confidant is a member of the Red Cliff Clan!Could it be the person in their clan who had been away for ten years that Chen Jing said? "Could it be our patriarch? But how did they know each other? In the Qin Dynasty, Guizhou didn't seem to be included in the territory, right?" Chen Jing was very surprised, and she said, "Does the bamboo slip say that there is a secret passage to go out?" ? The previous builders would dig a secret passage in this kind of place to escape for themselves." "The bamboo slips also say that he was given poisoned wine by Qin Shihuang, and he was unable to escape, so he died here. There is no secret way in this temple. At that time, the supervision was very strict, and the craftsmen all died in the temple. But , He seems to say that once he accidentally discovered a natural passage to escape here! At that time, no one here knew it, but he only knew it.” I saw my heart beating violently here, and I was thinking that I could finally go out , I didn’t know that I didn’t even have a fart when I looked at the wall, let alone a map. Xinhong said that this person must have drawn the map of the Tianshan Temple on the wall before he died, but due to the age, the paintings on the wall have long since faded away. After Chen Jing heard this, she showed a happy expression, and it seemed that she was also an inexperienced person.I was bitten by Yinlihong just now. Although the poison has been eliminated, my whole body is painful and tired, so I sat in the same place with the three big dogs.Chen Jing and Xinhong touched the stone walls to see if there were any traps, but they found nothing after searching for a long time. I thought to myself, since this is a death row, how could there be a mechanism for people to escape?However, this person had already been given death at that time, so even if he wanted to escape, he had no chance.Since it was built by him, there might be other ways of escape.At this time, a big dog ran around, and it jumped on top of the corpse, and the corpse instantly turned into powder.When I was sighing, how could I imagine that the stone slab under the bones suddenly sank, a stone wall began to move slowly, and a small exit appeared! Chen Jing said happily, we are saved, but I became nervous for no reason.Because, when the stone wall is completely removed, there is a narrow and straight mud cave behind the cave. It is reasonable to say that the cave should be dark, but at this time, a corner of the mud cave has been emitting dazzling light!
