Chapter 47 One Eye Sees Qin Chengpei's True Colors
I agree with Thomas and want to uncover the final truth.
Even if we can't reveal the secret of the Yin-Yang Doll, at least, together with Thomas and Kasha, I can understand where Qin Chengpei went after the wall disappeared?
"Let's go, Kasha, let's go and solve the mystery. No matter where Qin Chengpei goes, there must be a clear whereabouts, right?" Thomas grabbed Kasha's wrist and pulled her over.
At the critical moment, the woman's control deteriorated, but Thomas and I remained resilient, keeping a close eye on the key points and never relaxing.
"He is not there, he disappeared, he has gone to the Snowy Mountains to look for the fairy sister... Stop torturing me, stop torturing me, I am exhausted and will die soon..."
Kasha shook his head and struggled slightly.
Thomas took out a plastic bag from his pocket, tore open the bag, pulled out a needle, and stabbed it into the side of Kasha's neck. Within a few seconds, the red liquid in the needle was injected into Kasha's body.
"Hold on, victory is coming, and we will definitely be able to usher in the greatest moment. Believe me, I can find Qin Chengpei - I definitely can!" Thomas responded through gritted teeth and held on to Kasha again.
We entered the basement, where there was a guard every three steps and a sentry every five steps. All the security guards faithfully carried out Kasha's orders and did not dare to be careless in the slightest.
When we entered the room where the crystal coffin was stored, Kasha shuddered, stopped suddenly, and looked around in horror.
"he's not here--"
"He must be here. I dare to guarantee with my life that Qin Chengpei is here!" Thomas interrupted Kasha and strode forward with determination, reaching the side of the crystal coffin.
Anyone who faces a Yin-Yang doll will definitely pay attention to the female doll first. This is human nature and it is difficult to change. However, before I came in, I had already thought of a very possible answer, that is, Qin Chengpei has been married to the male doll.
Two become one.
This is of course somewhat absurd, but since he disappeared across the wall, there is no way to explain it, so we can only forcefully infer the answer.
"Ye Kai, even you suspect that Qin Chengpei has entered the body of the Yin-Yang doll, right?"
Thomas and I now have sympathy for each other, have the same feelings about everything, and make the same judgments. But when we looked at the male doll together, we immediately understood that the doll was just a doll, and it could never be Qin Chengpei.
In other words, our judgment has no basis, and we can't see any possibility now. It can only be a fantasy.
Thomas sighed: "Before I knew that Qin Chengpei had disappeared here, I had already thought that he might inject his soul into the Yin and Yang dolls. However, in so many historical books, such a thaumaturgy has never been mentioned, so I can only
I can think about it secretly, but now I realize that my thinking direction may be completely wrong."
I was not as pessimistic as him, but carefully examined the male doll. Since we have a new discovery, new idea, and new direction, we should not rush to deny it. We must explore it again until it becomes a reality.
, or find an answer that convinces us.
Thomas took out two magnifying glasses and threw one to me.
We leaned next to the crystal coffin and used a magnifying glass to carefully examine the body of the male doll.
His body is perfect, he is appropriately fat and thin, his limbs are slender, and his facial expression is as calm as water. In ancient times, he must have been a gentle and handsome man.
I know that although Qin Chengpei's appearance is acceptable, he is definitely not a handsome man, and he cannot be combined with the male doll in front of me.
"Ye Kai, do you think my idea is wrong? We came here in the wrong direction. There may be another reason for Qin Chengpei's disappearance. I wonder if there is a secret passage in this room. His disappearance from the secret passage is the only possible reason.
The answer to the letter.”
For the time being, I can't answer Thomas' question. After all, Kasha is the only one who knows about Qin Chengpei's disappearance. Kasha's mood is very unstable now. No matter what questions we ask her, the response she gets is sobbing.
Thomas became impatient: "Kasha, please repeat the situation again. I must know what happened at that time? You have to tell me even the smallest details. In short, we must find the answer to this question, otherwise we will not be able to
Tell the whole world that this pair of Yin-Yang dolls will also become an ominous object and be smashed into your hands."
I am sure that Kasha has rejected all his ideas, and the direction Thomas has just found has been hindered, but how could a living person like Qin Chengpei suddenly disappear without even a single fragment left? Even if he was swallowed by a monster,
You have to leave the shadow of the monster behind.
I carefully observed the pair of Yin-Yang dolls and could not find any trace left by Qin Chengpei.
Kasha had no choice but to repeat the situation again, but there was nothing new. After all, it had been repeated so many times. If the details were not discovered, others would have long ago forced them to find out.
Now she recites this passage and speaks it very fluently without any stumbling.
"Ye Kai, Thomas, I was standing outside the door and eavesdropping. Mr. Qin was talking to himself inside for a long time, and then suddenly there was no sound. I waited for a long time and came in to check and found out that he had disappeared. This room
There are no secret passages, and even the air-conditioning vents cannot allow people to pass through. What's more, he has no reason to escape from there. The Giant Wood Museum is his home and his property. He is the owner here. He can go anywhere.
, he has complete autonomy to do anything, so it is impossible for him to deliberately hide his whereabouts... I suspect that he dissolved in the air, just like those people made of water vapor recorded in ancient books, once the sun shines
The water vapor evaporates, and then the whole person disappears, including the clothes on his body, which turn into crumbs and nothing remains."
What she is talking about now is another legend. Various forms of strange races have been mixed into the human world. They are between humans and non-humans. They should all join the non-human association, but due to historical conditions, they live in the
Every corner of the world eventually disappeared suddenly and lost its trace due to many special opportunities.
These things have never been confirmed, and are only recorded in the unofficial histories of various dynasties. It sounds incredible, but when you think about it carefully, it is completely possible.
I raised my own question: "If he disappeared here, why did he go to all the trouble to borrow the Emperor's Saw from your family and search for it in the forest? Did he think that after finding the Yin-Yang Doll, he felt that the mission was completed and he could disappear?
Kasha, I completely disagree with what you said, because I think Qin Chengpei is full of hope for the future. He wants to find the Golden Man and become immortal. How can he commit suicide when he is in high spirits? Even if he is a human being condensed from water vapor.
, will also wait until the final moment of victory, and it is impossible to evacuate midway."
I have studied all the information about Qin Chengpei and watched all the videos he left in the Giant Wood Museum. I can tell from his face and emotions that he is a person who will never give up until he reaches his goal. Now that he has found
The Son of Heaven saw the God, then he will surely find the Golden Man.
Kasha sighed: "Then I don't know. Mr. Qin has hidden many things from me. Although he entrusted me with his last words, more secrets are with Vivian. Why don't I just tell him now?"
Call her here, we will confront her and let Vivian tell you everything."
As an experienced investigator, I know that this is definitely not appropriate. If we want to meet Vivian alone, we will deliberately go to her instead of directly talking to each other here and trying to repair the relationship once there is a conflict.
It's just too difficult.
According to the documents left by Qin Chengpei, if he dies, all the wealth in the Giant Wood Museum will belong to Vivian, and Kasha will most likely be expelled at that time.
For Kasha's sake, it's impossible for me to agree to bring Vivian here now.
Thomas shook his head: "I have another way to know what the relationship between the Yin-Yang Doll and Qin Chengpei is. That is, your ancient Chinese story of 'Cao Chong Weighing the Elephant' is also Archimedes' method of measuring the crown.
, we put the Yin and Yang dolls into the water and measure their volume and weight, so we can know what Qin Chengpei did to the male dolls?"
This is of course a very violent method, and we would never do it unless absolutely necessary, but now it seems that we have reached the point where things have been overturned.
Thomas was very confident in his idea and immediately asked: "The three of us will vote. If the majority defeats the minority, we can start measuring the volume of the doll."
For real scientists, this is actually a stupid approach. If other problems occur when putting the puppet into the water and the puppet disappears, then all our hard work will be in vain.
Kasha and Thomas raised their hands at the same time. Two votes beat one. They won.
Kasha immediately ordered people to prepare two huge buckets filled with water and bring them over, and put in two dolls respectively to see if their volumes changed? Did their weight increase?
Thomas sat down next to him, his face full of confusion and silent.
I told him directly that this would probably destroy the Yin-Yang doll and all our exploration operations would be ruined.
"Mr. Thomas, if we wait a little longer, maybe there is a way to get the best of both worlds?"
Thomas's expression became very bitter, and he shook his head slightly: "Ye Kai, we really have no good solution. Many people have proposed various methods before you, including soul calling, Zhouyi Bagua, and astrology, but busy
For most of the day, Qin Chengpei was nowhere to be seen. Now I can arbitrarily believe that Qin Chengpei has entered the body of the Yin and Yang dolls. When they are put into the water, maybe Qin Chengpei's soul will suddenly come back."
There is no logic in these words, and they can only be used as doctors on dead horses, but I still admire Thomas. He deduced under extreme conditions and suddenly came up with a way to move our exploration of Yin-Yang dolls forward.
step.
Soon, two huge buckets with a diameter of two meters were pushed in. Someone opened the lid of the crystal coffin and prepared to lift the male doll out and put it into the buckets.
At that time, I was very close to the crystal coffin and kept looking into the eyes of the male doll.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes, turned his eyes quickly, looked around, and then closed them again. It took only a tenth of a second, but I still saw it all.
I didn't care whether he really came back to life, but from the moment he opened his eyes, I felt that his eyes looked very much like Qin Chengpei's.
Now I have the answer - "Qin Chengpei has become one with the male doll. What we are looking at now is the doll, but its inner soul is Qin Chengpei."
This kind of discovery cheered me up. It was enough to prove that Thomas's idea was completely correct and he had found the key to cracking the Yin Yang Doll.
