In front of the pagoda gate, there is a plaque with the words "Beidou Temple" written on it.
Qin Wenyuan felt that Beidou seemed to have a special liking for the word "Beidou".
Beidou Temple, Beidou Tower, Beidou Empress...
Does Beidou really want to become the only existence in the world?
"Si She, go and have a look."
Qin Wenyuan winked at Si She.
Sishe quickly ran to the door. He glanced at the tower door gently, and then whispered to Qin Wenyuan: "It's not locked."
No lock?
Is there someone guarding it inside?
Qin Wenyuan felt that such an important place could not be without protection measures.
He reached the sound of the snake in two steps, put his ear against the door, and listened to the sounds inside.
After a moment, he raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "There is breathing sound inside."
After making a judgment, he said: "Two people."
Tianji raised his eyebrows, is it true?
If you can hear breathing through the door, how many people can you tell?
So awesome?
Tianji suspected that Qin Wenyuan was deceiving him.
Qin Wenyuan didn't pay attention to Tianji's expression. He continued to listen.
After listening quietly for a while, he said, "The breathing is long and regular. He must have fallen asleep."
Tianji raised his eyebrows.
I can hear it even when I'm asleep, is it true?
She felt more and more that Qin Wenyuan was teasing her.
Through a door, you can't see anything inside. How can you hear so much content just by listening.
Sishe, however, had no doubts about Qin Wenyuan's words.
Others don't know how evil the young master is, but Si She knows it all too well.
He knew that the young master's vision and hearing were far superior to theirs, so he had always suspected that the young master might really be the reincarnation of a god.
Qin Wenyuan listened for a while to make sure there was no additional movement, then stood up and said: "Sishe, you deal with the ones on the left, and I'll deal with the ones on the right."
Sishe nodded without any hesitation.
With that said, Qin Wenyuan pushed the door gently, and the originally closed door was immediately pushed open.
The next moment, before Tianji could see clearly what was going on inside, she saw Qin Wenyuan rushing in.
Si Snake followed closely behind.
The two of them had a tacit understanding, one turned to the left and the other to the right.
Then Tianji heard two muffled bangs and bangs, and Qin Wenyuan's voice came out: "Come in, it's okay."
Tianji's eyes widened.
Somewhat unbelievable.
She quickly entered the Beidou Tower and saw two people lying on both sides of the door.
Behind them, Qin Wenyuan and Si She stood up slowly.
Tianji couldn't help but said: "Qin Wenyuan, did you really hear it?"
Qin Wenyuan rolled his eyes: "Do you think I'm teasing you? I have such a leisurely mood?"
Tianji didn't know what to say.
evildoer.
Qin Wenyuan is definitely a monster.
The snake turned around and closed the door.
Only then did Qin Wenyuan look around seriously.
You can see that the tower is very wide and the hall on the first floor is also very spacious.
Right in front of the hall, there is a huge incense burner.
This incense burner is made of a tripod. The four-legged bronze tripod stands majestically here.
There is a lot of incense ashes inside the bronze tripod.
It can be known that pilgrims come here to set it off.
Behind the bronze tripod, there is a table with a merit box on the table.
In front of the bronze tripod, there are some futons, which have always been used by believers to kneel and worship.
The entire spacious first-floor hall is filled with these things.
Qin Wenyuan walked around the bronze tripod, came to the table, reached out to grab the merit box, lifted it, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "It's a lot of money."
"This is not the money they defrauded by using the stone statues to appear today, but the money invested voluntarily by believers."
"It seems like this Beidou Temple is really making a lot of money."
"Not to mention making money every day, it's not much different."
Tianji squinted her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking, and said nothing.
Si She tied up the two people who were knocked unconscious and tied their mouths with cloth strips to prevent them from suddenly waking up and disrupting their plans...
Qin Wenyuan looked around again. After confirming that there was nothing useful in the hall on this floor, he looked at the stairs aside and said, "Let's go to the second floor and have a look."
With that said, he went directly to the second floor.
Go up the stairs.
Sishe glanced at Tianji and said, "Let's go."
Tianji then followed, with Sishe walking at the end.
The stairs are made of wood, but they are very familiar and there is not much creaking sound when walking on them.
Not long after, they arrived at the second floor.
As soon as Qin Wenyuan arrived at the second floor, he saw the scene on the second floor and said, "It's the Sutra Pavilion."
I can only see that the second floor is different from the first floor.
The second floor is not empty, but rather crowded, because it is filled with bookshelves, and there are many books on the bookshelves.
Qin Wenyuan casually took out a book and opened it at will.
"The Legend of Beidou Empress."
Looking at the title of this book, Qin Wenyuan couldn't help but smile: "This Beidou Club has really put some thought into it!"
"In order to deceive people, you even made up such a legend?"
Qin Wenyuan was really surprised.
He originally thought that Beidou Empress was just a tool that Beidou would use to make money.
Take it out when needed.
No need to throw it away casually.
But I never expected that the Beidou Society would write such a thick biography and legend specifically for Empress Beidou.
This is really amazing.
Si She was also surprised.
He hurriedly asked: "Master, what is the legend of Beidou Empress? How did they make it up?"
"Let me take a look."
Qin Wenyuan opened the pages of the book, read for a while, and said: "The book says that Empress Beidou was originally just an ordinary girl from an ordinary family, but she was smart since she was a child. She was filial to her parents and kind-hearted."
"When she was little, she was very kind. Whenever she saw injured animals, she would bandage them up and let them go. She would also secretly bring them some food to help them.
Protect them."
"But the little girl didn't know that these little animals were monsters who were accomplished cultivators. Later, in order to repay their kindness, these monsters took the little girl away and gave her the method of cultivation."
"More than ten years later, the little girl became successful in cultivation, went down the mountain to practice, and began to help poor people."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "He treated people's illnesses, stopped wars and killings, promoted the concept of peace, and did many good things."
"In the end, in order to stop the killings in the two countries and save the people of the two countries from the harm of the war, he sacrificed himself and awakened the good nature of the soldiers of the two countries. From then on, the soldiers of the two countries put down their weapons and lived in peace."
"The people of the two countries commemorated and appreciated her sacrifice, cast a golden body for her, and began to worship her. They also called her Beidou Empress. From then on, the deeds of Beidou Empress were widely spread, and Beidou Temples began to be built one after another.
Arise, the number of believers is increasing.”
Qin Wenyuan flipped through some pages and said, "There are many more stories in it, but in general, that's it."
Si She couldn't help but said: "I didn't expect that Beidou Empress would have such a mythical flavor."
"But let the two countries stop killing, which two countries?" Sishe asked.
Qin Wenyuan shrugged: "It's not mentioned in the book, so who knows."
"Perhaps there is no such thing as two countries at all. It is just a fabrication made up to add divinity to her."
Qin Wenyuan wanted to continue to look back, but then Tianji suddenly said: "They are all useless fabrications, there is nothing interesting about them."
"Let's go, there's nothing on the second floor."
With that said, Tianji was about to walk towards the third floor.
Sishe put down the books in her hands and followed.
Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
"There's something wrong with Tianji."
Tianji rarely reveals anything in front of Qin Wenyuan.
Moreover, Tianji's words seemed a bit abrupt this time.
It looked like they didn't want Qin Wenyuan and the others to stay on the second floor for any length of time.
what happened?
Is there really something wrong with the books on the second floor?
besides……
Qin Wenyuan looked at the book "The Legend of Beidou Empress" in his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Is it really all just made up?"
Although he just said this to Si She, Qin Wenyuan always felt like he had seen her before.
He always felt like he had seen this story somewhere before.
But for a while, he couldn't remember it.
Qin Wenyuan has experienced too many things, and the storage space of the human brain is limited.
Therefore, some useless things that he never uses will slowly be piled into the corner of his memory.
These things, unless he encounters something, can inspire him and make him recall it quickly.
Otherwise... maybe I will never think of it again in my lifetime.
So, is this feeling of déjà vu a memory he piled into a corner?
Qin Wenyuan is not sure.
Even if you are as smart as him, you can't remember everything.
Qin Wenyuan glanced at Tianji and Sishe and saw that they were about to reach the third floor. He let out a breath and quickly followed them without any further delay.
However, he secretly put the biography of Empress Beidou into his arms and hid it.
He had a feeling that this book definitely had secrets and was definitely useful.
I just don't have a clue at the moment.
But maybe one day in the future, something he experiences in the future will become the key to unlock all the secrets.
When the time comes, maybe this will become a crucial clue.
He didn't hesitate anymore and quickly caught up with Tianji and Mishe. Behind them, he followed them to the third floor of Beidou Tower.
When they arrived on the third floor, after seeing the scene on the third floor, the three of them... were suddenly stunned...
"This is?"
Si She was the first to speak.
I saw that the third floor of the Beidou Tower was brightly lit.
Many candles are lit.
With the beating of candlelight, the light in the room is very bright.
Of course, what surprised Qin Wenyuan and the others was not these bright candles.
But behind these candles, there is a portrait hanging on the wall!
That's right, these candle holders are all mounted on the outside of the wall.
And behind the candle is a portrait.
At this time, with the beating of the candlelight, these lifelike portraits seem to be coming to life, which is a bit scary.
And more importantly, these hundreds of portraits all depict the same person.
Either smile, or be sad, or purse your lips, or frown, or shed tears, or feel compassion for others, or smile broadly...
The expression in each painting is different.
The clothes in each painting are different.
But their appearance is exactly the same.
beauty.
Beautiful and breathtaking.
And, it was exactly the same as the stone statue they saw on the street before...
No, it is more beautiful than the stone statue.
Because of the carving and the stone itself, it is difficult to express the full beauty of the stone statue.
But these images.
But they all seem to be made by everyone.
The colorful portraits gave them the feeling that the people in the portraits were about to walk out at any time.
more realistic.
It's also more beautiful.
Beidou Empress, all are portraits of Beidou Empress.
Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
Strange.
It's getting weirder and weirder.
If the Beidou Society wanted to deceive these people and create some stone statues, in Qin Wenyuan's opinion, it would be very difficult.
However, when I came to the second floor.
Qin Wenyuan was absolutely surprised when he saw those books.
Normally speaking, Beidou Empress is just a fictional character, and Beidou Temple is just a thing used to deceive people. It is enough to have one or two books to show off.
But the entire second floor was filled with books.
Qin Wenyuan just took a cursory glance and found many records about Beidou Empress.
In addition to the one I secretly hid, there are others.
I even saw the meaning of Beidou Temple.
This is really, really wrong.
After arriving on the third floor, he felt even more strange when he saw these portraits.
To carve a stone statue, you only need to have an idea in your mind.
But what about painting these hundreds of portraits?
If you don't have a clear reference person and draw randomly, Qin Wenyuan doesn't think you can draw more than a hundred pictures of exactly the same person.
Not to mention, these portraits are all different.
One frown and one smile, one happy and one angry.
The expression is completely different.
Based on imagination alone, Qin Wenyuan didn't think anyone could draw these.
so……
Qin Wenyuan frowned slightly: "Is there really a person like Empress Beidou?"
"What?"
Sishe looked at Qin Wenyuan unexpectedly.
Tianji frowned, not knowing what he was thinking, and seemed not to hear Qin Wenyuan's words.
Qin Wenyuan said: "I suspect that Empress Beidou has at least one or more reference persons."
"Perhaps Beidou Empress was created based on the reference of a certain woman."
"Perhaps, it was created based on many women, taking out the most attractive parts of them."
"But no matter what, there must be a prototype!"
"I just don't know who this prototype is. If I can find this prototype..."
Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes: "Maybe, I can learn many secrets."
At this time, Qin Wenyuan suddenly looked at Tianji.
He saw that Tianji's expression was very complicated. Looking at these portraits, Tianji's expression could no longer be concealed.
That expression was very complex.
Miss? Hate? Sad?
then what?
In short, I am not happy.
"Sure enough, Tianji...may know the details of this Beidou Empress, but he won't tell me."
Qin Wenyuan sighed in his heart.
You still have to rely on yourself.
Even if he knew that Tianji might know everything, there was nothing he could do if Tianji didn't take the initiative to speak.
