"So how does the old guy plan to resurrect his head of state?" Lu Mingfei asked following Chu Tianjiao's words.
"This involves Vincent's second secret. When I asked this question, Vincent winked at the people in the room, all the hired veterans and the sexy and coquettish girls.
Silently retreated out, leaving only Sasha in the room." Chu Tianjiao said, "It seems like this is a big secret. Even the girls who have had physical contact with Vincent can't believe it, but only
Sasha seems to be able to gain Vincent's trust."
"The old guy is very vigilant," Lu Mingfei said.
"After seeing what he showed me next, I couldn't understand why he was so cautious." Chu Tianjiao shook his head and said softly, "People who have never been in contact with the Dragon Clan will not believe what he says next.
Even ordinary mixed-race people would only think that he is suffering from hysteria or crazy after listening to the old guy's words."
"Is it something related to the Dragon Clan?" Chu Zihang asked.
"So." Chu Tianjiao nodded and said, "It's something... beyond human understanding."
Beyond human understanding... This description is very interesting. For ordinary people, things in the dragon world are beyond their understanding, but when Chu Tianjiao said it, the gold content of this sentence seems to be extremely high.
Everyone pricked up their ears and listened.
"That's a painting." Chu Tianjiao said slowly.
"A painting?" Everyone in the room looked at each other.
"Yes, I saw Vincent gesture to Sasha, and then Sasha walked to the wall step by step. I noticed the expression on Sasha's face. His face looked cautious and awe-inspiring.
There was still fear hidden deep in his eyes, as if what he was going to show me next was not a painting, but a man-eating demon." Chu Tianjiao said, "Sasha walked to the bookshelf behind Vincent.
That's where I was staring at the dealer. He moved a few books on the bookshelf. It was a special mechanism. Then a certain shelf of the bookshelf split in all directions, revealing a hidden mezzanine. In fact, I already knew where it was.
The layout was weird, but I didn’t know what was hidden there at first.”
"The older the fox is, the more he likes to hide his beloved treasure closer to himself." Lu Mingfei said.
"But actually, for Vincent, that thing is more like a coordinate than a treasure, and it is also some kind of curse." Chu Tianjiao said.
"Curse?" Chu Zihang whispered.
This word reminded him of the mark on his shoulder that was left by Odin. Chu Zihang always believed that it was some kind of curse imposed on him by Odin, whenever his bloodline was on the verge of losing control.
, there was a dull pain in the shoulder... Later, Chu Zihang learned that it was actually a kind of coordinate, which could take Chu Zihang into Odin's Nibelung again. Since receiving the "baptism of dragon's blood" in Japan,
The brand mark on my shoulder no longer hurts.
"The secret room behind the bookshelf is a shrine, which can also be said to be an altar. There is a burning candlestick placed on a small hollow platform. The candlestick is filled with black gelatin, which is the ever-lasting mermaid oil. The candlestick
There is a statue of the Virgin Mary standing behind..." When Chu Tianjiao said this, an inappropriate voice sounded.
"Is the old guy's beliefs so complex?" Fingel screamed strangely, "Don't this guy believe in Xitegan? But that guy in Xitegan is a typical anti-Christ. What on earth does Vincent want to do?
?While believing in Germany, at the same time there is a statue of Jesus and his mother?"
"Vincent does not believe in Jesus or Christianity. He placed the statue of the Virgin Mary just to use that statue to suppress the curse in the painting." Chu Tianjiao said in a low voice, "The painting is placed behind the shrine, covered by one side.
It was covered by a black curtain. When Sasha lifted the black curtain, an indescribable ominous feeling surged through my heart. The sky was pitch-black, with long strips of cyan and purple light.
The sea is shimmering blue, and there are white islands and land, one by one, like clouds hanging in the sky."
"Are those luminous streamers in the sky auroras?" Caesar asked.
"Yes, it looks like an aurora." Chu Tianjiao nodded.
"Wait a minute, in that painting you just said, the earth is a blue sea with islands like clouds on it, and then the sky is black, like a black land, with light strips like lamps on it."
After Chu Zihang pondered for a moment, he looked at Chu Tianjiao and asked, "Isn't this consistent with the scene you said before that the guest who boarded the 'Yamal' heard from the sailor? The sky is like
Like the earth, the earth is like the sky, everything in the world is turned upside down."
"Yes, I had a strong feeling when I saw the painting. It was weird and scary. There was a mysterious light floating in the sky in the painting. It was hard to tell whether it was night or day. Those lights fell from the sky.
It illuminates the islands on the sea. Some of those islands have towering trees, and some have strange stones. The stones are surrounded by high platforms that resemble altars in the morning light." Chu Tianjiao said in a very low voice, "
In the center of the painting is the largest island. The white island is like a huge iceberg that has not melted for thousands of years. It is surrounded by eight smaller islands on all sides. A white figure stands in the center of the giant island, with its back
Facing outside the screen, his face cannot be seen clearly. He is wrapped in gray and white bandages, surrounded by dense black coffins. The man stands in the middle of the coffins, looking at the sky, as if he is praying or cursing.
"
"It sounds quite scary." Lu Mingfei nodded as he imagined the scene in the picture.
"No, my description is not even one-tenth of the real painting. Only by seeing the painting with your own eyes can you understand the weirdness in it." Chu Tianjiao shook his head and said, "Obviously such an abstract painting, but
Its picture is extremely realistic, with the color of the sky, the outline of the island, the texture of the leaves, the shape of the coffin... and the human figure standing on the island in the center of the picture. These elements are so surreal, but the painter put them
It is so clearly and vividly outlined that I can imagine how determined and absorbed the person who painted it was at that time. His face was somewhere between fear and madness, as if he had spent his whole life's courage on this painting.
It's as if this painting was not something he dreamed or imagined, but a scene he... witnessed with his own eyes!"
"Abstract and realistic painting..." Lu Mingfei whispered, and the appearance of a painting appeared in his mind unconsciously.
Everyone here has seen that painting, which is a ferocious, terrifying and extremely realistic painting.
"This type of painting..." Lu Mingfei looked at Caesar and Chu Zihang, "Boss, senior brother, do you still remember?"
Chu Zihang nodded, and Caesar whispered: "How could you forget?"
They all knew which painting Lu Mingfei was talking about. They saw it on the CC1000 train when they were in school, the "Twilight of the Gods" in which the Black King Nidhogg gnawed the World Tree!
Lu Mingfei once asked Professor Guderian and Principal Angers who the author of the painting was, but the answer given by both the professor and the principal was that the author was unknown.
This was originally a huge unsolved mystery, because the picture in the painting looked real. The painting could even cause almost all mixed-race species to have spiritual vision, unless they had seen the ancient black emperor with their own eyes.
People will never be able to describe that kind of majesty... But in the world is it really
Is he such a person? He has seen the Black King himself and survived. He also has superb painting skills and has recorded the scenes he has seen with his own eyes. The probability of this series of coincidences is as small as that of Black King.
When Wang was flying in the sky, he was killed by an extraterrestrial meteorite.
"No, the person who painted that painting must have seen that island with his own eyes." Chu Tianjiao suddenly interrupted Lu Mingfei's thoughts, "In other words, he at least saw that island with his own eyes from a long distance away.
An island is like a perspective in a painting."
"Why?" Lu Mingfei asked subconsciously.
"Because Vincent has also been to that place." Chu Tianjiao whispered.
"What?!" Everyone widened their eyes in unison.
"That's what Vincent told me later. He stood in front of the painting and told me that the name of the painting was 'Island of Death', and that the painting was found in a safe in the Antarctic base camp of the Antarctic Party.
"We have collected three similar paintings." Chu Tianjiao said, "Actually, there are five paintings of this kind in the world. Collecting all five paintings can piece together a complete coordinate.
The coordinates record the 'Place of Eternal Life', but it seems that no one in the world has ever done this. When Xitegan was young, he found two paintings and learned that the secret of 'Eternal Life' is hidden at a certain pole of the earth. Xitegan
He speculated that it was the Antarctic, but he was wrong. He didn't get the third painting until he was old, and he knew that the secret of eternal life was hidden in the North Pole, but by then his life was about to come to an end."
"What about the other two paintings by Xi Te Gan?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"It can't be found. Vincent had never seen it before. He only found this painting in Xitegan's safe. He knew that Xitegan had three paintings and found them from Xitegan's diary.
"Chu Tianjiao shook his head and said, "Xi Tegen wrote down his new plan before he died, including plans for a new empire, and plans for
As for the land of eternal life, Vincent was completely brainwashed by the head of state, so he wanted to resurrect Xite Ge no matter what. He inherited Xite Ge's wealth and his plan. He followed the notes
The content in it went to the Arctic Circle, trying to find the legendary 'Place of Eternal Life' here and resurrect his leader."
"The old guy is as loyal as a humane old Rottweiler," Fingel said with emotion.
"I have a question." Nuonuo suddenly raised her hand. She looked at Chu Tianjiao and asked, "You mentioned two words in your description just now, 'Island of Death' and 'Land of Eternal Life'. Please tell me about these two words."
, do they refer to the same place?”
"Regarding this matter, in Vincent's understanding, the two words are from the same place, and the included notes also hold the same guess." Nono seemed to have gotten to the point of the question. Chu Tianjiao thought for a while and said,
"But when I encountered some things later, I felt that the two places were probably not the same place."
"What did you encounter later?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"That's something to talk about later. I'll tell you right away." Chu Tianjiao said, "Vincent suddenly covered the painting. He came close to my ear and told me in a very small voice that in fact, that
He has already been to this place once."
"I admit that I was shocked at the time, but it was also expected, because if he had really been there, it would mean that the sailor on the Yamal was not lying. What Vincent said next made me even more incredible.
." Chu Tianjiao looked at everyone and said softly, "He said that the island has a name. It is the ultimate place, the beginning and end of the world. Its name is...'Avalon'."
"Avalon!" Everyone's eyes widened.
According to records in northern mythology, Avalon is indeed an island located in the far north, known as the "Blissful World". No one knows where it is, as if its existence will change with the changes in the world.
Stop changing.
Legend has it that it is the final resting place of King Arthur and the paradise in the other world. It is guarded by nine fairies. No living person can land on the island. It can only be approached by ferry boats on the sea. It is surrounded by thick fog and aurora.
, isolated from the world all year round, there are also rumors that King Arthur came to life in Avalon, time will not pass on the island, the concepts of past and future do not exist at all, and that land hides the secrets of death and immortality.
"Many myths have prototypes in reality. Maybe the island 'Avalon' really exists in the world." Chu Zihang said.
"If there is an 'Avalon' in the world, it doesn't just prove that Vincent's statement and Xi Tegui's conjecture, as well as the painting, 'Island of Death' and 'Land of Eternal Life' are real."
Caesar whispered.
"No scholar in the world has ever confirmed this, but Vincent told me that he can confirm it because he has seen it with his own eyes and is an experiencer, and his words are convincing." Chu Tianjiao said, "Actually, I
I almost believed him at that time, but in order to get him to be more honest and explain more to me, I provoked him with words. I sneered and said these words were all your own words. You can make them up, and I can make them up too.
, I can say that I have been to Asgard, where I have seen gods and demons."
"This method of provoking generals is not very clever." Chu Zihang frowned slightly.
"But Vincent happened to do this, because he needed me, so he also needed my trust." Chu Tianjiao said, "Vincent's face was red at the time, and he pointed to the rare bowl of rice.
The coffin with the body is said to be evidence. If he has never been to Avalon, where did this coffin come from? This is what he brought out of Avalon!"
"Coffin?" Nono's eyes moved, as if he thought of something. He looked at Chu Tianjiao and asked, "That painting you just mentioned?"
