Chapter 17 Chapter 15 The Greatest Female Astrologer

Du Wei picked up a candlestick.After thinking for a while, he took another weapon hanging from the wall. Of course, considering his current weak physical strength, he chose a dagger.After pondering for a while, Du Wei picked up a few new candles and put them into his arms. Then Du Wei stepped into the secret room on the wall. The weak candlelight can only illuminate the space about two or three steps away. Fortunately, Du Wei's natural mental strength is stronger than that of ordinary people, and his sensitivity to the surroundings is also much stronger. This is a secret passage inlaid in a huge stone wall, with cold and hard stones on both sides, I don’t know how many years old it is, this secret passage is full of dust, although Du Wei has tried his best to relax every movement, But he still couldn't help stirring up the dust and sneezing again and again.

From time to time, his feet would step on some small stones. In the flickering candlelight, Du Wei could only stagger and move forward cautiously. Fortunately, the place seemed to be well ventilated. Although the candles were flickering, they were not extinguished due to the lack of oxygen in the air. After walking through the secret path for a while, a step appeared in front of him. The spiral steps lead directly to the ground. The steps are very narrow and made of stones. Wei estimated in his heart that after walking about thirty or more steps, he finally saw a small door. The metal doorknob was said to be rusted long ago. Du Wei grabbed the doorknob and twisted it twice, but found that the door was locked and could not be opened at all.He sighed, and suddenly remembered the sentence engraved on the bookshelf...

"The spoon is the key..." Du Wei thought for a while, held up a candle and looked around in front of the door, and finally saw a pattern on the ceiling of the room above the door. This is a carved pattern. According to the pattern on it, Du Wei can barely recognize that it seems to be a picture of astrology. He doesn't have a lot of research on astrology, but because he remembered the "spoon" problem in his mind, he is very familiar with it. It is clear that the "Big Dipper" shaped like a spoon can be found on this astrology chart. "The spoon is the key..." Du Wei muttered, the ceiling was a bit high for him at the age of thirteen, and even if he stood on tiptoe, his hands couldn't reach the ceiling.With the dim candlelight, Du Wei carefully studied the pattern.

One candle was almost burnt out. When Du Wei lit the second candle, his heart suddenly moved. He remembered an important question! key? joke! If this secret passage is discovered, then even if the person who enters does not have a key, wouldn't he find a tool to pry the door open?Without the key, the door could still be broken open with brutal means. That being the case, the key is not so important.But the prompt said "key" in such a special way, so it must have a different meaning! In other words, if there is no key, it is invalid to use other methods such as smashing or prying open.

I am afraid that this "key" cannot be explained literally. Du Wei sat down and thought for a while, and when he stood up again, he jumped up with all his strength, raised the dagger in his hand and barely knocked on the pattern of the Big Dipper on the ceiling. boom! Du Wei's eyes lit up!The voice seemed a little empty. He gave up the attempt to call attention to the door, but bent down, found a gap on the stone slab on the ground, and then inserted the dagger fiercely into the gap, allowing the dagger to stand on the ground, and then Du Wei reluctantly supported the wall and stepped on the dagger, so that he stood a little higher. Although he was still a little wobbly, he could barely reach the ceiling.

There was a thick layer of dust on the ceiling. After groping for a while, Du Wei could feel that the pattern of stars on the Big Dipper was obviously different from other places. He tried some methods, such as knocking, twisting, turning, and so on. Finally, he didn't know where he touched. He turned it hard, and twisted a star-shaped stone. With the sound of turning, a floor in the corner suddenly sank! A black passage appeared on the ground, and there were steps all the way down in the passage! It's done! Du Wei let out a low cry, and jumped off the dagger hilt with a smile. Sure enough, it was a deceptive trick!Du Wei was convinced that his guess was correct.

The rusty door next to it is simply a blindfold!The real secret is not on this door at all!If the people who came here didn't pay attention to the "Big Dipper" according to the prompts, even if they opened the door with brute force, they still wouldn't be able to find the real secret here! Du Wei is convinced that the real secret of this place lies in this black passage sunken in the ground! He walked to the side of the passage. This entrance was very narrow, and only one person could barely enter. It was dark inside. Du Wei first lit a candle and threw it in. With the light of the falling candle, he could see that the steps below were not deep, about Just two or three meters high, it should be a secret room.

Du Wei didn't go down immediately, but sat at the entrance of the passage and waited for a while. Seeing that there was nothing unusual below, he carefully went down the steps. ... This is a closed room with closed stone walls on all sides. A row of iron cabinets are placed on the walls on both sides. Many of them are sealed, and the locks on them are all rusted.In the middle is a huge stone platform. The height of this stone platform is about Du Wei's waist. There are many esoteric and difficult-to-read patterns carved on the surface. There is a large arc in the middle, and all the dots around it are the positions of stars.

Du Wei looked at it for a while, feeling clueless, and then simply gave up on the study of the pattern on the table, and concentrated on searching the iron cabinet next to it. All the iron cabinets here are locked, because of the age, I am afraid that the locks inside have already rusted to death.Du Wei worked hard for a long time, and when he felt a little depressed, he finally cheered and found an unlocked drawer! This is also the only drawer in the entire iron cabinet that is not locked! After opening, a stone box lay quietly in the drawer. On the front of this stone blind man is engraved the emblem of the Luo Lin family!

Du Wei lifted the box with difficulty, then sat down on the ground, and opened it carefully.Inside the box was a roll of parchment. Some words were densely written on this roll of parchment, and after the parchment was unfolded, a hexagonal green crystal like a gemstone fell out of the roll. Du Wei patiently lit the third candle he brought, and then quietly read the words on the parchment... "To the Initiator: Dear reader, you must be a descendant of the Rollins family.Well, the first thing you must know is that this is a letter left by your ancestors. The person who wrote this letter is the wife of the seventh-generation patriarch of the Luo Lin family, the astrologer Sai Mel. "

Seeing the first two sentences, Du Wei couldn't help being a little surprised. Astrologer, Semel? Of course Du Wei knew that in the history of the Luo Lin family, there was a strange family patriarch who was very interested in astrology and even married a female astrologer as his wife.And the family castle where Du Wei is now, the tallest building in the castle, a tall white tower, was specially built by the family patriarch back then, so that his astrologer wife could stay at night. It is better to observe the stars in the night sky on the tall tower! What Du Wei didn't expect was that this letter was actually written by the patriarch's wife, a female astrologer! He read on. "...When you read this letter, I hope you can understand that what you will face next will be an adventure with great risks. You may open a door that has been banned for countless ages , because it is very likely that behind this door will be a taboo field that humans cannot touch. At the same time, this is also the result of my, lifelong research and discovery. If you are ready for an adventure, then you can take the gem that this envelope is wrapped together, and then you carefully explore the stone platform in the room, you will find a socket, after inserting the gem, you will get my The most complete information left.And in order to ensure that the inheritance of information will not fall into the hands of outsiders, the blood of the blood of the Luo Lin family must be activated to activate the information. Please drip your blood on the gem, and the blood of the Luo Lin family will guide you to get what I left behind. information. " Just at the end of this letter, there is another line of text: "May the great Luo Lin family prosper, because of my husband, I fell in love with this family! Your ancestor, Samel Kira Rollin left a message" After Du Wei finished reading it in one breath, he couldn't help but feel a little more shocked in his heart! Because according to the family history he has seen, he has the impression of the name Samel Kira Rollin (real name is Samel Kira. It was only after marrying into the Rollin family that he took the name of the Rollin family) It is very profound. This woman is the wife of the seventh-generation patriarch of the family, and a famous female astrology master. In the field of astrology, she is worthy of admiration!Du Wei's first teacher, the old scholar Rossiat, was also an astrologer. During the year and a half he had educated Du Wei, when he occasionally mentioned Du Wei's ancestor's wife, he always full of respect.He even mentioned inadvertently that this female astrologer named Semel seemed to be the best astrologer in the empire in the past two hundred years! What made Du Wei impressed by this name was not because Semel was a great master of astrology, but because of another reason. Because, in the records of the Luo Lin family that Du Wei read, this female astrology master is also a woman who loves her husband deeply. The seventh-generation patriarch of the Luo Lin family who married her didn't live long, and died when he was about fifty.This Semel female astrology master, she was obviously an infatuated woman, on the third day after her husband died, she committed suicide on the tall white tower built for her by her husband before his death. Before dying, the female astrology master carved a sentence on her tower: "Because of love, we will live forever." It is precisely because of this last sentence that Du Wei remembered this famous woman in the history of the family. Without any hesitation, Du Wei immediately got down and groped under the stone platform, and soon found the socket mentioned in the letter. The socket was exactly the size and shape of that jewel.Du Wei immediately cut his finger without hesitation, and dropped a drop of blood on the gemstone. With the gem inserted into that socket.Du Wei subconsciously took two steps back... In the dark secret room, suddenly, a strong light erupted from the patterns on the square stone platform in front of him, and this light illuminated the whole room as if it were daytime!The strong light even made Du Wei unable to open his eyes! Then these rays of light gathered little by little, and finally formed a beam of light on the stone platform, and a figure appeared in the middle of the beam of light! This is not a real person, but a very real phantom made of these rays of light! The size of this phantom is the same as that of a real person, Du Wei couldn't help but widen his eyes! He suddenly reacted to a very important matter! This Semel, the legendary female astrology master, is probably also an outstanding magician at the same time!Because everything that happened just now, as well as the phantom in front of him, is clearly a kind of magic! ! The light of the phantom gradually dimmed, and finally the intensity of the light was just right enough for human eyes to bear. Du Wei could finally see clearly the figure standing in the beam of light. A woman in a red robe, with long silver hair like white snow, her whole body is covered in the bright red robe, her face is extremely beautiful, her eyes seem to be gentle, but those black eyes, It made Du Wei feel a strange feeling. "The person who opened the message, I am your ancestor Samel Kira Rollin." The phantom said slowly: "This is the last magic message I left before I died. This is the one I left The magic circle needs to be opened with the magic crystal infused with my own magic power and the blood of the Luo Lin family. Since you can see this message, it means that you are the descendant of the Luo Lin family, so you can also get I keep everything secret." Du Wei looked at this lifelike and beautiful woman in front of him, and he couldn't help feeling a little shocked in his heart! A magic circle can be used to preserve a message for a hundred years!This kind of magical ability is already a super-class magic master! !This Semel actually has such abilities! "I can't know how many years have passed since you activated this message, nor can I know how much magic power I have left in the magic crystal, so please listen to every word I say clearly , because, I am afraid that there is no magic power to activate this magic circle a second time." Semel's phantom spoke slowly. Even though he knew that Semel in front of him was not a real person, but just a phantom left behind, Du Wei couldn't help but nodded. "First of all, I want to explain: what I leave to you may bring you endless benefits, or it may bring you endless troubles. Because the results of my life's research, except for my husband, have no One person knows. The person who opened this message, since you can come here, then you must have a certain understanding of astrology, at least a little understanding of astrology. So first, I want to tell you one of the most important Here's the thing: All the astrologers in the world are wrong! They, all, everyone, are wrong! Because, astrology is definitely not a superficial thing that predicts the future only through changes in astrology.Although everyone now thinks that astrology is just a kind of prophecy.But, what I want to tell you is... Astrology, in fact, is a kind of magic, a powerful and profound magic. Astrologers should not just be considered as scholars of astrology, let alone superficial and mysterious prophets. A real astrologer should have a powerful power comparable to all magicians! Since the magician can summon the power of the wind, with the help of rain, storm, flame, and so on, all the power of nature.So, astrologer, why not borrow the power of the stars? Even, we astrologers can go even further!Because, I discovered a power that magicians can't, even never can master... This is... the law! "
