Liu Shenghan sighed repeatedly. Bai Ya sat down slowly and pinched the bridge of his nose with his thumb and index finger, trying to calm down his emotions. He also felt that this behavior was simply unreasonable. If the monarch were here, he would probably have punched him
Broken the old guy's nose.
"What exactly happened?" Shenghan asked calmly, "Please tell us, while we were away, what exactly..."
It was only two or three months ago...the king no longer goes to court.
What the mother of the country knew was limited. Although she was directly commanded and controlled by Xiang Shen, the information she could learn was getting less and less. It seemed that unknowingly, he tightened his trust in this little girl, and also
I don’t know if it has something to do with Bai Ya and the others. It can make the king sleep peacefully and dream of returning to the common people.
Because of her identity, the candles used to reunite her family have long been used up. However, the God of Incense did not ask her to tell the monarch about this, and he never revealed the candle-making process. He only told her that the raw materials were limited and had been used up long ago.
It’s gone. Let alone the Nine Heavens Kingdom, even if the entire human world is turned upside down, it’s gone.
So what should we do? How can we stabilize the increasingly haggard and arrogant monarch? All big and small matters are gradually handed over to the cabinet, and the cabinet is all important members of the Xiangyin Sect. The young mother of the country finally realized that the Xiangshen did not
Not wanting to help the monarch, the fact that the monarch is becoming more and more crazy is also part of his plan. Now, as the plan is coming to an end, he will naturally kick out the useless monarch and naturally take the power of Xiangji Kingdom into his hands.
As for why he adopts this slow method, it is because he needs time. It is impossible for faith to be deeply rooted in people's hearts overnight. The spread and precipitation of any culture is a silent process, even for cults. What?
Drugs? That won't work. Drugs alone won't last long and will hurt the body. To let the power of faith take root in the human body and maintain the function of human labor is the most perfect and gentle robbery.
Xiang Shen and several of his men developed a new medicine.
This medicine has an excellent numbing effect. As long as you inhale some, it can immediately isolate the pain in the body and make people feel better. The original recipe was a certain folk anesthetic, but now it has been added
Dozens of raw materials, and more than a dozen more processes. He finally mass-produced this medicine into ointment and distributed it to devout believers in batches at one time. Picking a little of this stuff and burning it in the stove can bring out the fragrance even more
.
One of the important raw materials is called Wuxiaying. This is something that the mother of the country only found out later. The God of Fragrance has always done a good job in keeping secrets, and even the place where the medicine is refining is extremely hidden.
After the kind-hearted monarch became like this, he vented his grievances on the mother of the country, beating and scolding her day and night, and drove her out of the previous palace. He said that if it were not for him, the mother of the country would not be treated as she is today.
The mother-in-law could only smile bitterly after hearing this, unable to say anything at all. The God of Fragrance did not give her any new instructions. It was as if she had given up on her, so she had no choice but to swallow her anger.
In just a few dozen days, a person can become so fast. Whenever the mother of the country feels that she can no longer hold on, she will tell herself that he was very kind to her before... He just thinks it is a dream.
Forget it, what are you fussing about? Besides, with the recent increase in the purity of balm, he spent more and more time in incense.
By the way, the name of that ointment refers to the "Wangyou Incense" to believers. But in private, when the incense god calls it, it is clearly called the "Soul-taking Incense", and I don't know what the significance is.
"Do you have that kind of fragrance here?" Liu Shenghan asked her.
The mother of the country shook her head, regretfully
Said: "Those things will never be given to me. They consume people's will and energy, and once they smell it, they can't live without it. I'm afraid that because I'm still useful, you won't give it to me."
They smell so good, and I won’t be allowed to touch them.”
Jun Aoyan was still angry. She said: "I think you should run away now. Anyway, the palace is not so strict. We will find a way to take you out so that you don't have to suffer in the palace."
"You think very simply." Bai Ya felt ridiculous for this idea, "The territory of the Southern Kingdom is full of fake gods' informants, where can she go?"
"Follow us. Let's go home together and let her live in a new place. Or she can hide from my dad first."
Before Bai Ya could say anything, the mother of the country expressed her position. She said sadly: "Miss Jun is interested. However, whether it is the leader or the king, they are all kind to me. I can't just leave like this.
What's more, Bai Shaoxia is right, no matter where I go, they can always find me. Me following you will only add to the burden, so I won't bother you."
The other three people also sighed. Although they felt a little resentful that iron could not become steel, this was considered a personal choice. The mother of the country had grown up in such an environment. If the morning glory took away the branches it clings to,
, they will just lie on the ground powerlessly, unable to withstand any wind and rain. If they leave like this, they will rot in the ground. They know this, so they won’t say anything.
"Well, there is one thing. I wonder if it will be helpful to you." The mother of the country suddenly said again.
"What is it? What else do you know?"
"Originally, the leader of the church has prepared a third mission for you."
"Ah... Indeed. If we bring back the body of the consort of Gechen Kingdom, we may have to do it."
"This mission is also extraordinary." The mother of the country's expression became serious, "Moreover, it is also related to Ge Shenguo."
"Because they are allies? Because the two gods have a good relationship?"
"Indeed. This third mission was originally for you to find a lost guqin..."
"Ah." Liu Shenghan exclaimed briefly.
The other three people all looked at her, their meaning written on their faces: What's wrong, you know?
Liu Shenghan nodded and said honestly: "I have indeed heard it - another person from the Six Paths Impermanence told me, Lord Xueyue. If this task really falls on us, speaking of it... it will still be a bit troublesome.
"
"What kind of troublesome method is this?" Jun Aoyan was puzzled, "Is it difficult to find it?"
"This harp... does have a lot to say. The leader asked you to find it. On the one hand, he made it clear that he would not let you complete it; on the other hand, even if you did it, he and the God of Song would also benefit. That harp, the legend
He was beaten by a dead man."
"dead?"
So the mother of the country and Liu Shenghan pieced together the rumors about Qin bit by bit. Qin is a guqin with five strings, but it is different from the ordinary guqin. The ordinary guqin has this literal name.
It means "ancient harp". Strictly speaking, this harp appeared in this generation. The specific age, and how many years ago it is accurate, is also
It can be unclear. It can be as short as a few decades or as long as hundreds of years, but it cannot be regarded as "ancient" in any case. And the ancientness of this qin can be seen in its wood - the wood is the best nanmu, and the gold
Silk nanmu is an old wood that is seven or eight hundred years old. This wood cannot be soaked in water and cannot be burrowed by ants. Its color is light orange-yellow with ash in it. The wood is warm and delicate, and the texture is elegant and quiet.
Under the sun, it can shine with a faint golden light, like clouds and jade silk, which is so beautiful that it is breathtaking.
It is a coffin.
This coffin was originally lying in the tomb. The owner should be a musician or a music lover. Because there are thirteen mother-of-pearl products placed in the coffin, exuding a delicate and beautiful luster. Some knowledgeable people say that this is
Qin emblem. Thirteen Qin emblems have symbolized December since ancient times, and the remaining one represents the leap month. As for the identity of this corpse, it is really
There are different opinions, and there is no definite conclusion. Because it is very special, there is no tombstone, and there are no other burials that can indicate her identity. What is even more special is that she was a woman. But maybe it was because she was a woman that people at that time thought
She should be nameless and unworthy of such a glorious burial, and there would be no mechanism in the tomb.
In fact, she was buried with many things, but the moment those things were seen again, they all suddenly turned into dust in full view of the public and dispersed in the wind. The people who dug the tomb rushed to hug them frantically, but in the end they only got one.
Scratching the dust. This is not
Fresh, many tombs that have been buried deep underground for many years and are isolated from the world will dissipate and die when exposed to a large amount of fresh air. What’s more, digging it itself is a coincidence. It’s just a group of people mining. I didn’t expect this to happen.
, naturally unprepared.
In the end, only this big coffin was left. With experience in burial objects, there were a lot of preparations for opening the coffin. Her body was well preserved in such a coffin, and it was obvious that she must have been very young when she died.
But no one can tell
How did she die? There were no external wounds, no poison was found in the internal injuries, but there were dark red and brown traces on the bottom of the coffin lid. Could that be blood? Why was it on top? Was it the blood of the coffin owner?
?But she obviously has no wounds.
This nameless female corpse was lying here, and no one did anything to it. But before the court sent anyone, on the seventh day after the coffin was opened, something unexpected happened - the lid of the coffin was gone and replaced by
A guqin.
What's even more incredible is that the girl's body has also disappeared. Two miners said that they were convinced that the piano was made from this coffin, because the coffin originally had colorless paint, and the wood cracked due to the expansion and contraction of heat and cold.
The pattern looks like the rare broken plum blossoms on the guqin. And this shaped guqin
There are exactly the same plum blossoms on the piano. But this piano has new antlers and frost tires, a mother-of-pearl emblem, a jade-inlaid instrument, and five silk strings. The current piano is already
It has seven strings, and the "seven" number is two to three hundred years old. It is probably based on the age of the girl's birth.
How could this corpse disappear? This coffin board was transformed into a piano overnight?
There was no one guarding the tomb at that time. Both the latest and first arrivals said they had not heard any movement or seen any strange footprints. The corpse had evaporated, leaving not even ashes behind.
There is no remnant of this piano scattered in the tomb.
.If the party involved hadn't insisted that this was definitely the coffin board, and there were some inconspicuous scratches on it with a mining pick, people would have suspected that someone had stolen the beams and replaced the pillars with the built-up piano. But even if it was a built-up piano,
How can you put it in quietly?
Where are you coming? Not to mention how to transport the body and the original board, just predicting when someone will dig this tomb is difficult for the best Feng Shui masters, onmyojis and fortune tellers in the country.
It’s a matter of God. Besides, no one even knew there was a coffin here.
The whereabouts of the female corpse and the origin of the guqin are both mysterious and mysterious matters.
