Chapter 90: Boneless Beauty
The cauldron is simple and majestic, with extraordinary momentum. Three big feet cross the bank of the stream, and the turbulent stream flows. In the colorful stalactite cave, it is even more solemn and mysterious, and it is endlessly imagined by people.
"How did you move such a big thing in?" Hu Shanshan looked around and found that the cave here seemed wide, but the natural cave was irregular, and the bronze cauldron could not pass smoothly.
Hu Che also scratched his scalp: "Yes, this thing cannot be transported out! Unless it is broken."
"It is illegal to destroy national treasures. Are you sure you are really a policeman? He actually said such words."
Hu Che disagreed and shrugged: "I just said that, why do you think it's true."
Just as the two were quarreling, Fujiki Ichiro walked around the big cauldron with his old eyes, as if he had discovered something, laughed,
"Mr. Fujimu, why are you laughing at? What makes you so happy?"
The second uncle was very curious and looked at Cai Sheng whom he brought, but saw Cai Sheng shook his head and felt a little anxious.
The main reason is that the second uncle himself knows very little about ancient culture. He thought that taking Cai Sheng would be like bringing a living encyclopedia, but he didn't expect that even if he was knowledgeable, he could not see the origin of this big cauldron. This stupid old man obviously discovered something, and his laughter was so clear.
This is very unfavorable to him, so I can only ask for advice humbly.
Fujiki Hanichiro raised his beard and laughed: "Do you know who is on the wall of the instrument?"
The second uncle and everyone gathered their eyes on the cauldron wall again, and saw that the appearance outlined in the mottled rust and mottled lines was very abstract and ordinary, and the character environment was very complex, not just one or two people,
Hu Shanshan saw a group of people standing in front of the surging river, in different shapes, but they were holding shovel-like utensils in their hands, like workers building river channels. And one of these tall men was very abrupt. He was holding a huge axe in his hand, as if the whole picture was to shape his majesty.
There is nothing special about this scene, it is very ordinary, so ordinary that people always think that they have seen it somewhere.
This feeling is not only Hu Shanshan, but also Zhang Shuishu, Cai Sheng and even the second uncle on the side, and there is already a guess, but they are both sure, so they don’t speak.
Maybe it was because the other party was a foreigner and he didn't dare to say anything that he was unsure of, so he naturally began to become rigorous.
But Hu Che had no such scruples at all. He spoke out loudly, held the golden in his arms and looked back at the pattern of the tripod wall, and said without slashing: "That's not Dayu's control of the flood,"
According to legend, the Huaihe River is flooding every year. Dayu splits the Jingtu Mountains with a sharp axe, controls the flood, and is supported by the people.
In fact, when I first saw this picture, everyone thought of Dayu controlling the flood, because it was really easy for people to think of him. But I also felt that it should not be that simple, so I always doubted myself.
Because the legend of Dayu's flood control often does not express the water control itself, and it is impossible for someone to really split a mountain with an axe. The meaning it expresses is, why do you need to cast dikes to block the flood when the flood comes, rather than splitting mountains and repairing canals to relieve floods?
So it is still difficult to say whether Dayu really controls the flood, let alone chopping the mountain with an axe.
The inscriptions for casting tripods are mostly for recording major events, which is a bit contradictory.
At this moment, seeing everyone looking at him with strange eyes, Hu Che felt a little relieved, but he still glared back: "Why are you all looking at me? Is it wrong to speak actively? It's not illegal to say something wrong? Isn't it advocates freedom of speech? If it really doesn't work, you just think I've said nothing."
However, Fujiki Ichiro nodded and looked at Hu Che with appreciation: "You are right. This records that Dayu controls the flood, but the protagonist is not Dayu. The person holding the axe is not Dayu."
Hu Che was stunned when he heard this, blinked his eyes, and then he realized that he had been caught by most of the time and was very proud.
"I'll just say it! With my knowledge of ancient and modern times, I can see the mystery of this at a glance. But I have long known that the protagonist is not Dayu. He is holding an axe, right? In ancient times, he must be a carpenter, so... he is Lu Ban?"
Hu Che pretended to say this, at first, he was a little guilty, but later he didn't know why he became confident, and slapped his thigh: "By the way, he is Lu Ban... Well, I didn't expect that Lu Ban also participated in a national project like Dayu's flood control. It was really a major archaeological discovery! Da Shanshan, you must write this major historical discovery into a paper and publish it on People's Daily so that all Chinese people know the contributions this great pioneer has made to future generations..."
Hu Shanshan rolled her eyes directly: "Officer Hu, can you not talk nonsense? Dayu and Lu Ban are not from the same historical period at all, they are of different ages,"
...
Fujiki Ainichiro stopped him and laughed: "This person is Bo Yi."
I don’t know why, but when I heard this name, Cai Sheng and Zhang Shuaishuai were obviously stunned, as if they had thought of something, while Hu Shanshan, Hu Che and the Second Uncle were all confused, and it was obviously the first time I heard this name.
Cai Sheng thought for a while, and came to his second uncle and said to him, "This is very likely. Legend has it that Bo Yi was a capable man who followed Dayu to control the Huanghuai River. He is the originator of the well. He invented the art of digging during the water control process. This place also belongs to his fiefdom, the capital of the Gu Zhongli Kingdom... Boss Hu, we only knew that this was Phoenix Tomb before, but we knew very little about its historical background. In this regard, Fujiki Ichiro is obviously much more prepared than we have."
Hearing Cai Sheng's words, Uncle Er's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes looked at Fujiki Ichiro with more attention.
After hearing this, Hu Shanshan muttered: "There is also a well-driving technique. Isn't it enough to dig a water well and dig it down hard?"
Zhang Shuishu analyzed for her: "Da Shanshan, the invention of well-drilling technique is of great significance. In ancient times, people only survived by rivers and lakes, migrated frequently, and were often threatened by floods and disasters. With the well-drilling technique, large areas of plains in the north were developed and human footprints were extended..."
The second uncle looked at Fujiki Hanichiro and asked, "Old Master Fujiki, you said that the character on this cauldron is Bo Yi. Does this have anything to do with the Phoenix Tomb we are looking for?"
Fujiki Hanichiro likes to argue when he becomes rigorous. At this time, he waves his hand and says, "No, no, no, this is not a tripod, but a sakus, a musical instrument."
The second uncle hurriedly looked at Cai Sheng, and Cai Sheng looked stern and nodded: "In terms of form, it does look like a huge bronze chime, especially the drums on the wall of the instrument, which only appear on musical instruments. But how could there be such a large bronze chime in the world? And there is no way to hang it up."
Before the second uncle could speak, Fujiki Ichiro snorted and said, "Is it because I didn't say clearly enough? This one is not a chime or a big tripod. It is called a cymbal, a cymbal."
Hu Che looked at Cai Sheng and then at Fujiki Huanichiro, and said, "Oh, aren't this all the same? I heard that this means putting down the chime and making it, right?"
"You careless loyal man, obviously, are not the same thing, and the music you play is very different. How can you not know how to distinguish it?"
Fujiki Huan stomped her feet in a blush and glared at Hu Che.
Hu Che looked innocent. He felt wronged for being cannon fodder for no reason.
Fujiki Ichiro seemed to be really angry, and he really didn't understand why he was so angry. Hu Shanshan only felt that the temper of this foreigner was really weird!
"Okay, let me talk about the relationship between this bronze woven and Phoenix Tomb."
After breathing evenly, Fujiki Ichiro got to the point. With Fujiki Hui's support, he walked to the totem and stared at it, and said quietly: "The descendants of Boyi established Zhongli Kingdom, and Zhongli was among Qi and Chu. Because they were too small, they were facing the threat of national destruction at any time. So after a generation of kings ascended the throne, they wrecked the ship and went to sea. After an adventure, they brought back three treasures. These three treasures are the ghost jade seals that can summon the Hell Ghost Army, the boneless beauties in the world, and the phoenix spirit stone that can shape all wishes. Among them, the Phoenix Spirit Stone is the most mysterious. It is said to be a meteorite from outside the sky. Because there is a phoenix pattern on the stone wall, it is called the Phoenix Spirit Stone. Therefore, it is called Phoenix Tomb."
This is the first time Hu Shanshan has heard about the origin and background of Phoenix Mausoleum in such detail. After listening to it, I couldn't believe it because these sounded too fantasy and none of them seemed real.
"Zhongli Kingdom?" Hu Shanshan chewed on the name and found it absurd and weird. "Didn't this mean underground tomb built by Emperor Zhu? Why did the background suddenly cross such a large distance?"
"Emperor Zhu is just a beneficiary of Phoenix Mausoleum. He came once when he was a teenager and got the world. After the country was stable, he built the ancient building above just to cover up his eyes."
After saying this, Fujiki Hanichiro retreated his gaze and looked at the bronze turtle again.
"I know what you want to say, do you think that the ghost jade seal, the boneless beauty, these things sound unreal? Haha, in fact, I am like you, and I don't believe it when I heard this. But I have been immersed in Han culture for many years and still have some understanding. Especially when I went to Nanyang a few years ago, I suddenly realized that the ghost jade seal brought back by the king of Zhongli should be a musical instrument, a musical instrument that can summon some dangerous creatures in the ocean. The king of Zhongli used this dangerous creature crawling out of the ocean to have abundant army, and this was how to resist the suppression of the powerful country. The so-called boneless beauty should be a sea mermaid. The mermaid oil has a strange fragrance, which can be used to control the enemy. As for the phoenix spirit stone, it is very mysterious, it should be just an ordinary meteorite outside the sky. As for whether there is magical power, it is unknown, and I also want to take a look..."
"Is the ghost jade seal a musical instrument?" Cai Sheng seemed to understand something and looked at the bronze instrument in front of him, "In this way, this huge bronze flask must be related to the ghost jade seal."
"It is easy to ask God to send Gods but hard to send Gods. Zhongli Army summoned a large number of dangerous creatures to land with the ghost jade seal. Although it controlled the situation of the war, it also destroyed the ecological balance. In order to make up for this defect, the Phoenix Tomb was found. This huge bronze bulb was used to expand the sound shell of the ghost jade seal, summoning dangerous creatures that had fallen outside after the war and imprisoned here. So... the ghost jade seal was inside the bronze bulb in front of you..."
Although it is just a one-sided statement, I don’t know why. Even though I still have many questions, I accepted and agreed with this statement in my heart.
In other words, there is a very likely place in the huge bronze lump in front of you, the ghost jade seal among the three treasures of Phoenix Tomb.
"Mr. Fujimu, don't lie to me. I'm very simple. My heart is as clear as my name and cannot withstand the temptation of treasures."
Hu Che said that, he rolled up his sleeves and was about to climb up the bronze utensil. He was excited. Although he was not very interested in the dream of summoning abundant army of marine monsters and dominating the whole world, as long as it was a treasure or a treasure, it would be tempting enough.
After saying that, seeing no one objected, Hu Che made up his mind, spitted into his palms, and quickly climbed up the bronze utensil.
Hu Che's hands and feet were very nimble, and he climbed to the top without much effort, looked inside, and frowned.
"Why is it all water? It's still dirty."
"It's normal to have moisture here all year round and there is water accumulation."
Hu Che was a little regretful. He was struggling whether to go down, Junzi suddenly jumped up and jumped up like a flying one.
Hu Shanshan was stunned, her eyes filled with red stars.
"Junezi, be careful!" Hu Shanshan shouted like cheering, attracting the second uncle and Zhang Shuishu to look over.
Hu Che saw Junzi jumping up with a smile and was about to say hello to him, suddenly he fell down and got into the water.
Hu Che was a little stunned. Just as he was thinking about whether he would go down as well, suddenly, Yu Nanjun, who was bearded, jumped up. The latter had no expression on his face. He glanced at Hu Che and jumped down.
"Are you all so brave?"
Hu Che thought that he was a people's policeman no matter how he said that he was a people's policeman and could not admit defeat. When he should be brave, he had to be able to stand up. Now Junzi is a direct teammate, so he has to go down to help. He can't let the baby fall into the hands of the Sunny Man.
When he thought about it this way, he felt that his sense of mission was a bit heavy, but those who could work harder would have no choice. This was to fight for the carelessness of the nation.
So Hu Che pinched his nose, closed his eyes, and poured it into the turbid and shaking water of the tripod.
The bronze utensil in front of me was really too big. The three of them entered and there was no fluctuation except for the rising water level.
Everyone was worried and stared at their heads with their eyes raised.
The bronze utensil was too high. Hu Shanshan looked at her neck sorely. She was rubbing and taking a step back. Suddenly her body stiffened. When she looked down, she saw a little girl holding a doll in her hand and watching with her head raised. She stared at it like everyone else, but at this moment she noticed Hu Shanshan's gaze and turned her face to the side.
The little girl just glanced at Hu Shanshan, then quickly withdrew her gaze and continued to stare at it.
She seemed to be caring for something, and Hu Shanshan could even see a hint of worry and nervousness on her tender little face, and the doll in her arms hugged her tighter.
If it were Hu Shanshan before, she just thought the little girl was strange, but now she clearly knew that this girl was a ghost!
"Shirtless and handsome..." Hu Shanshan closed her eyes and shook Zhang Shuaishuai's arms desperately. Her voice was very small, as if she was afraid of being heard by the little girl, and murmured like a mosquito: "She is here, have you seen it? She is here..."
"Who?" Zhang Shuishu was confused and looked around with the glasses frame, but felt inexplicable.
"What's wrong with you Da Shanshan? Is the cold not cured yet?" Zhang Shuishu said as he touched Hu Shanshan's forehead. It was really a bit of soup, which made him frown slightly.
Hu Shanshan shrank her neck and walked behind Zhang Shuaishuai. When she opened her eyes, she could no longer see the little girl.
After searching around, I felt relieved.
"There was a child ghost just now, and she was standing here..."
