0317 Chapter 8 on Double Secret Three Corpse Square Bureau Section 30
Qu Yun didn't have the strength to tease Zhen Huiqi. She leaned against the stone wall, looked at the corpse whose head was lifted up by Kang Sini and turned to face her, and said:
"The person wearing the mask is obviously a member of the Riyiyuan. The texture of the mask...should be red copper? I have never heard of any court agencies wearing masks to perform official duties.
With such an obvious characteristic, if it was really affiliated with the imperial court, it would have been spread long ago. Therefore, they are probably other organizations that borrowed the name of Riyiyuan to act.
It should be true that the other three people all died of poisoning, but the cause of death should be different. The man wearing the red copper mask had ulcers all over his body, and his hands had been corroded into thick water and you could see the bones. This should be the poison of rotten jade.
This thing is often used to prevent theft in tombs and will be triggered by open fires. Solid jade-like rotten jade will vaporize as the temperature rises, and is highly corrosive and toxic.
The group of people in front must have seen the traces of artificial excavation, and were worried that there was no ventilation inside and the carbon dioxide would exceed the standard, so they lit a fire to test it, but they were poisoned by rotten jade."
"Sister Yun, aren't you a magician? How come you know all about these tomb institutions?" Zhen Huiqi was surprised.
"This is a coincidence. Since Uncle Xiao said this place was 'haunted', Yizi had done some research on undead magic before coming here. It happened that there was a place in the book that used the poison of rotten jade used in tombs as an example and I wrote it down.
Even though the poisons in different worlds have their own characteristics, and it was not rotten jade that caused the death of the masked man, his death was very similar to the trap in the underground cave. In fact, judging from the reasoning and conclusions of what happened before,
That's all. It's impossible for Yin Xiyi's double-density community to still have poison gas traps, right?
Looking at the other two people, their bodies were covered with red corpse spots, their faces were ferocious, and their ears and lips were purple. This was a sign of being poisoned by cyanide. This kind of drug could not exist in such an ancient building. They should be on top.
He was harmed by others and brought here."
Kang Sini suddenly realized: "That's why the master asked me to walk around just now. I thought it was some formation that Shishi mentioned. It turns out that there are traps here! So in addition to those who are still alive, the last one whose identity is unknown is
Is it just this young woman?"
"No, it's precisely this last person that Yizi knows."
know?
"I'm afraid she is the Miss Jiang in room 606. The waiter at Yuanjuyuansan, Yizi has chatted with her several times before, and she is indeed a good and well-educated child. I remember that the boss lady Huo seemed to call her... Jiang Shounan, right?
Qu Yun said and sighed:
"However, knowing her identity will not help our current problem. The most important thing at present is the energy in the underground and the group of bronze-masked men walking in front. Xiaonizi, the bronze-masked man's corpse has a
Something, help Yizi take it and take a look."
Kang Sini took it off and put it in front of Qu Yun. Zhen Huiqi also flashed the flashlight in cooperation.
Qu Yun then saw clearly that it was a badge made of the same red copper. The badge was flat, but an octahedron composed of twelve sides was drawn using artistic perspective techniques. The lower part of the octahedron was full of people kneeling in worship.
around it.
Qu Yun frowned: "This style of badge is not the formal style of the official department of the imperial court. It must be the symbol of the masked man organization. I should go back and check it out, and I should be able to find some clues."
After all, through her own efforts as an ordinary person, she was able to find out some clues about the Lamarck game that was blocked by "unrecognized irrational events". Qu Yun was quite confident that she could find clues.
Kang Sini nodded: "Three corpses, she and the lady are the two missing residents, and the masked man is the group holding the official document from the Li Yiyuan. So the last one who is still alive... is Mr. Nan who disappeared from the canteen.
?”
Carefully examine the appearance of the middle-aged man who was unconscious on the ground. He was tall and tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. His hands and feet were restrained, and there were many deep and shallow marks on his body that looked like torture. However, the man was still biting his lip resolutely in the coma without any panic or worry at all.
A cowering look.
Comparing it with the description on the notice board at the entrance of the canteen, it is indeed the same. Even if there is no photo, it is probably extremely rare to find such a dignified-looking middle-aged man in the whole city.
"Maybe, he was left alive, and his body is still covered with traces of torture, which means this man must know something. But since we can't wake him up now, this clue is not something we should be tangled with at this time.
Keep going, what Yiko cares about is still deeper."
So the three corpses and the hanging middle-aged man were left where they were, and Kang Sini picked up Qu Yun and continued moving forward.
Starting from the place where the corpse was seen, the deeper you go, the more traces of artificial excavation and paving there are. The natural waterway gradually turned into an underground palace with paved floors, and murals appeared in many places.
Kang Sini hugged Qu Yun and looked around: "Master, this place looks very old and weird. Can you tell anything from the style of these murals? The underground palace murals, in your world, these seem to be ancient tombs.
Some characteristics, right?”
Qu Yun smiled bitterly: "Yizi has never studied archeology, how can he understand these things? If I had to guess, the artistic styles of every dynasty in the history of Dayong are very distinct, and there are few exceptions. This style of painting with lines alone is probably quite ancient.
, maybe it’s a mural from the Pre-Qin era.
In fact, rather than the style of the murals, Yiko is more concerned about why such ancient murals can be preserved to this day in a humid environment like underground sewers. She can vaguely feel that these murals seem to have some connection with the energy below.
There is also the content inside. Looking at the composition of people worshiping, if it is a mausoleum, the owner of the tomb is undoubtedly the emperor. In the pre-Qin Dynasty, the portraits of emperors being worshiped all sit upright in the court, but the person being worshiped is suspended in mid-air. If it is a mausoleum,
Could it be that this place could still be the tomb of a deity?
Also, as Ru Shishi said, Yin Xiyi asked Feng Shui experts for guidance when building this community. The Feng Shui experts on this side of the world may not be Lamarck players, so it is normal for them not to be able to sense the special magical energy underground.
But the ancient man-made tombs are the most particular about finding dragon points. If the terrain here is suitable for ancient tombs, it is impossible for the experts invited by Yin Xiyi not to see that they would build a community here. Therefore, compared to the tombs, Yizi feels that this underground palace and
The following thing is related to the energy body that people are concerned about."
"God's tomb?" Zhen Huiqi seemed to be thinking about something.
And his repetition of this sentence instantly activated Qu Yun's memories.
The Tomb of the Gods...The Challenge Labyrinth of Destiny...The Ancestor God Sophocles?!
In world history, Sophocles was an ancient Greek dramatist, and his era coincided with the pre-Qin Dynasty, more than 400 BC.
