Hu Bayi spoke up, his tone also filled with excitement, "That's probably what happened! Let me just tell you, how could the Fengming Qishan Ji that Professor Sun translated earlier look like just an ordinary sacrificial text!
"
"It turns out that this kind of Dragon Bone Heavenly Book has two secret methods! This kind of confidentiality work is really done well!"
Hu Bayi said excitedly.
Hear this.
Ding Ze thought for a while, although he felt that it was not appropriate to pour cold water on him at this time, but...
'Even if I don't pour it, this basin of cold water will pour down on its own right away...'
Thinking about it, Ding Ze took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Um, Lao Hu, Miss Yang, are you two getting excited a little too early?"
"Do you know how these jade rings should be arranged to unlock the true information in the Dragon Bone Book?"
Words spread.
Ding.
moment.
Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang, who were still in high spirits just a second ago, felt a burst of excitement. Their bodies shook slightly. At the same time, the excitement on their faces and eyes quickly faded away.
Hu Bayi: "..."
Shirley Yang: “…..”
The two of them were stunned and neither made a sound.
Ding Ze saw it.
"I shouldn't say it, but the feeling of doing bad things is really good."
Thinking like this, Ding Ze suppressed his laughter and continued to pretend to be serious, "I just suddenly remembered that in addition to these jade rings, there are some black residues in Mr. Xian Wang's right hand."
"I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. Now it seems that those residues should be formed by the decay of the connecting parts of these jade rings."
"If that's the case, then these jade rings should have been strung together in a specific order... Maybe, before I took them out of Mr. Xian Wang's right hand, they were still arranged in that specific order.
.”
"Hey," Ding Ze said, sighing in a pretentious manner, "What a pity... If I had known about this earlier, I should have chopped off Mr. Xian Wang's right hand and brought him back."
Words spread.
The fat man, who had been silent for a while, spoke, his tone was neither disappointed nor worried, and seemed a little relaxed.
"Old Ding, you are not a god, how could you know such a thing in advance?"
"If you ask me, it's not a big deal if we don't know how to arrange these jade rings."
"Because, there is a person who will most likely know!"
Hear the words.
Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang were both startled, and then asked in unison, "Who?"
The fat man grinned, "Lao Hu, that's Professor Sun you just mentioned!"
"Just think about it, he can translate the words in the Dragon Bone Book, and he also said something like 'the cipher text within the cipher text, the hint within the hint' last time."
"Then let's take the jade rings over and let him study them. With his ability, it shouldn't be difficult to figure out the correct arrangement of these jade rings."
When Hu Bayi heard this, he nodded. The sense of disappointment he showed just now suddenly diminished a lot. "It makes sense!"
Shirley Yang then spoke up, "Well, the fat man is right. Professor Sun is very proficient in this area. We can try to ask him for help..."
"Even if he can't figure out the correct order of these jade rings, we can ask him to translate the contents of the dragon bone book hidden by King Xian."
"I think, considering how secretly King Xian hid this dragon bone heavenly book, and the fact that King Xian brought these jade rings into the coffin..."
"The contents of this Dragon Bone Heavenly Book may contain some clues related to the Muchen Bead without having to decipher it..."
Shirley Yang said this in one breath, then looked at Hu Bayi and Fatty, "Then let's go directly to Gulan County tomorrow."
"Okay," Hu Bayi and Fatty agreed.
As soon as these words came out, tomorrow's plan was finalized.
Seeing this, Ding Ze smiled.
In the original work, when Hu Bayi and the others finally fled, they accidentally lost the Dragon Bone Book that was lying on the ground.
Therefore, he did not know what information was recorded on this dragon bone book...
However, he felt that Shirley Yang's speculation just now should be basically correct.
'Even if this Dragon Bone Heavenly Book does not directly record information about the Muchen Bead, there should at least be some explicit or implicit hints pointing to the Tibetan place.'
Ding Ze thought for a while and said, "Now that we have a direction, there is no need to continue studying these things..."
Ding Ze said, paused deliberately, and then looked at the jade ring in the sealed bag.
"By the way, Lao Hu, I just noticed that there are sixteen jade rings in total... Is there anything special about this number?"
When Hu Ba heard this, he was slightly startled, then reached out and picked up the jade ring, "Sixteen pieces..."
Muttered something.
Hu Bayi frowned and was silent for a while.
The silence lasted for a while.
"What I can think of is that based on the functions of these jade rings, they are most likely to coincide with the lost "Sixteen-Character Heavenly Trigram" from ancient times..."
"What the hell," Hu Bayi said, and suddenly cursed, "If this is really the case, I really think God won't let us lift the curse easily!"
"How do you say that?" Shirley Yang asked doubtfully.
Hu Bayi: "Because if the "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret" in my hand is the complete copy, I should be able to know the arrangement of these sixteen jade rings..."
Hu Bayi explained everything.
Ding Ze held a cigarette in his mouth and listened quietly. When Shirley Yang didn't ask any more questions, he shook his head, "Maybe it's God's will... Forget it. Anyway, no matter what, let's take a look at Professor Sun's side first.
If it doesn’t work, we’ll find another way.”
"Well, this is the only way," Hu Bayi said with some regret.
"That's it, it's getting late and I have to get up early tomorrow, so let's put these things away first," Ding Ze said, reaching out and picking up the ancient corpse-suppressing mirror.
"I may have some use for this corpse-suppressing ancient mirror, so I took it away first. The remaining artifacts are the same as before. Fatty, Lao Hu, please take them back and sell them for me."

soon.
Put everything on the floor away.
At this time.
See the time is right.
Ding Ze once again pretended to suddenly remember it, and asked Hu Bayi, "I almost forgot...Old Hu, you said before that you saw those bronze men and bronze beasts in Tibet, what happened?"
--------------------------
Ding Ze pretended to ask casually.
When Hu Ba heard this, he hesitated for a moment and then said, "That's it..."
Hu Bayi started talking about his experience in Tibet.
Time passes slowly.
Before I knew it, more than an hour passed.
Hu Bayi's narration came to an end, "Later, I followed the troops into the depths of the Kunlun Mountains for construction... I am sure that the expressions of the corpses in the ancient tombs and the clothes they were wearing were related to our dedication to Mr. Wang.
The bronze figures seen in Er's Minglou, the mausoleum, and the characters in the murals are all very similar..."
"Combined with that picture of Tianji..."
"I think this is no coincidence."
"There should be some kind of connection between the Demon Country and the Bottomless Pit of Jingjue Ancient City that we don't know yet."
"The Muchen Pearl may have originated from Tibet."
Shirley Yang nodded and agreed, "It's very possible. I read foreign historical records that the art of evil first originated from Tibet..."
Bah bah bah bah.
The four of them chatted some more. Seeing that the night was getting a little late, they stopped talking and fell asleep one after another.
In a blink of an eye.
The time came the next morning.
The four of them did not sleep in late this time. They all got up early, washed up, had breakfast in the inn, and then went back to the room to pack their luggage.
soon.
Everything is in order.
"Let's go," Hu Bayi said.
Ding Ze nodded, then took out a wad of money. Then, in order to reassure the innkeeper, he wrote a note and put the money and note under the quilt.
Finish these.
Ding Ze raised his feet and smiled at Hu Bayi and the others, "Let's go."
A few minutes later.
The four of them walked out of Caiyun Inn, bathed in the morning energy, and embarked on their way home.
