Thousand Lantern Night

Chapter 109 CHAPTER (109) Wang Zanghai

The fat man said: "It's nothing strange, it's because the owner of the tomb is sure that the ice coffin can't be opened, so the box is equipped with a relatively complicated mechanism. If the ice coffin can't be opened, the chance of seeing the box again is very small. .”

Xiao Hua shook her head and said, "In the entire ice palace, we didn't see any decorations, which shows that the owner of the tomb doesn't want to attract anyone's attention. And building such an ice coffin that is basically impossible to open shows that the owner of the tomb doesn't want to die easily. No guarantee. Since the tomb and the coffin are so secretive, it means that the owner of the tomb wants to hide himself very much. But this golden portrait clearly shows the identity of the owner of the tomb. The mechanism is so simple that it can be inferred that Once the body is discovered, the owner of the tomb hopes that the person who discovers him will recognize him. So his logic is contradictory."

With such an explanation, I immediately remembered that the tomb before Fatty and the others discovered the coffin of King Wannu was full of treasures that would make people crazy at first sight.Those treasures are indeed very ostentatious, that is, once the tomb robbers enter this place, they must think that they have entered the most important part of the tomb, so the full room is a symbol of the identity of the tomb owner.

And this ice palace is empty, if it is not found that this ice platform is a coffin, most people will certainly not think that this is the main tomb.Xiaohua's statement is very reasonable.

Then the tomb owner's contradictory approach must have his intentions.

I asked Xiao Hua: "Who is the owner of the tomb? Why does he not want to be discovered, but also hopes to be recognized?"

Xiaohua smiled and said, "I don't want to be discovered, because the owner of the tomb prefers my original body. I want to be recognized, in fact, it is to hide my true identity."

Qin Ai rolled his eyes when he heard it, and said badly, "Don't pretend to understand. Why do you like your original corpse? Does this guy have other corpses? Besides, he has been recognized by others, how can he hide himself?" ? Your logic is wrong, right?"

This time the fat man stood in line with Qin Ai, nodded and said: "This is a godsend chatter, I really don't understand it."

Zhang Yinzhen interjected: "What he means is that the owner of the tomb has a use for keeping this corpse. Usually there are two uses for the corpse, one is to deceive the corpse, and the other is to bring the dead back to life. As for hoping to be recognized by others , That’s blinding the eyes. Putting the token of identity around, others will think that he is the person referred to by the token, which is a kind of directional misleading.”

The fat man immediately reacted: "In other words, this old boy is not the person pointed to by the token, but another person?"

Zhang Yinzhen nodded. "So the real intention of the owner of the tomb is that he doesn't want to be recognized. He neither wants to be discovered, nor does he want the person who discovers him to know who he is."

The fat man said: "It seems that this guy has a lot of thoughts." As he spoke, he reached out and touched the gold engraving and silk painting, carefully identified the purity of the gold, and said with a smile: "This portrait is very precious, just take this one away. I can eat and drink enough for a lifetime. I see this guy and hope that once someone finds out, the money-seeking person can just take the painting and leave him with a dead body."

Zhang Yinzhen said: "He may not have such an idea. That's why there is no self-destruct device installed in the ice coffin. If you really don't want to be discovered or let people know your identity, then it must be necessary to install the final self-destruct mechanism Keeping a lucky hook, it must be so that this corpse can be used one day. It’s just that he may not have imagined that in this era, no mechanism is so difficult as to be extremely difficult. He will finally see the light of day again.”

This is the same as Jiulianhuan.It is very strenuous to untie the nine loops that fit together without gaps.But the easiest way is to cut it off.The same is true for this ice coffin. It is basically impossible to open the nine-story coffin.But with our method - infrared cutting, it can be opened relatively easily.The most complicated mechanism is the simplest way.This is an idea that the ancients could not reach.

Qin Ai said: "Since we have seen the light of day again, let's see who he is?"

Xiao Hua said: "Let's take a look at who is the portrait on this gold engraving first?"

The fat man went up to touch it again. To be honest, he can still pretend to be an upright gentleman and resisted grabbing. I really admire his power of thought.But he is also scrupulous, in the current situation, Zhang Yinzhen can turn him into a wisp of ghost with any tool, so it is not so stupid to rob him.

The fat man recognized the portrait for a while, then smacked his lips and said, "Tsk, why does this man look so much like my little brother? Isn't this the portrait of the head of the Zhang family?"

After saying this, Zhang Qiling, who was sitting under the ice platform, opened his eyes, looked at the fat man expressionlessly, then lowered his head and lowered his eyes to continue the retreat.No intention of participating in the discussion at all.

Zhang Yinzhen is also a member of the Zhang family. He shook his head when he heard the fat man's words: "Look at the clothes he is wearing, they are Jurchen clothes. The history of the Zhang family is not so long."

As soon as I heard the word Jurchen, most of the information about Jurchen immediately flashed in my mind, which was taught by the buddy at Chen Pi Asi's side.The costumes worn by the golden carved figures are indeed the style of the Jurchen tribe that Fatty and the others saw on the rock wall of Changbai Mountain last time. I have seen it in another place - in the mirror image of the Queen Mother of the West.The enshrined Wannu King was also wearing this style of clothing!And that Wannu King, just as Fatty said, looks basically the same as Zhang Qiling.

I was surprised: "Could this person be King Wannu? However, according to the information Wang Zanghai left in the snake eyebrow copper fish, isn't King Wannu a monster that crawled up from the ground? If this is King Wannu, then the one outside the bronze gate Who is the twelve-handed male corpse?"

What they saw in Changbai Mountain convinced Fatty and the others that the male corpse of the Thousand-Handed Avalokitesvara was the real Wannu King.However, this portrait subverts this perception.I briefly recounted what I saw and heard about Tiangong last time.

Zhang Yinzhen said: "We don't know what happened to the Wannu King. But this painting appeared here, there must be a reason for it to be here. The information you got before is actually misleading. Possibility. All the information outside is telling the world that King Wannu is a monster. You also think that the male corpse you saw earlier is King Wannu. However, the owner of the tomb regards the tomb of the monster Wannu King as a shadow. According to the deduction, is it possible that the twelve-handed male corpse is the real Wannu King? Or is he just a cover-up to confuse the world?"

Zhang Yinzhen's bold conclusion surprised me.But if you think about it carefully, there is no flaw.Coupled with the information from the mirror image of the Queen Mother of the West from Wu Xie's mind, I am even more unable to determine which is true and which is false.

Fatty was the same as me, completely confused, and said in a daze, "What's going on, what's going on?"

Xiaohua said: "It's actually very simple. If the shadow coffin was also designed by the owner of the tomb, then he will not easily disclose the real information to others. If the information you got in Tongyu is to mislead the world, then the real The information must only be known to him. According to this logic, it can be inferred that the person in this gold carving is the real Wannu King. Because the real Wannu King is only known by the owner of the tomb. So he left this information in his tomb Indoor. Once this painting is discovered, people will think that the owner of the tomb is the real Wannu King. His purpose of confusing the world has been achieved."

Qin Ai heard it vaguely, touched his chin and said: "So our conclusion now is that the person in the shadow coffin is not Wannuwang, the real Wannuwang is the man in the portrait. The owner of this ice coffin is not The real Wannu King, who the hell is the owner of the tomb?"

Xiaohua said: "If I guess correctly, the owner of the tomb in this Ice Palace should be the reformer of Changbaishan Tiangong—Wang Zanghai!"

When the name came out of Xiaohua's mouth, everyone was surprised.Especially me and Fatty, totally unbelievable.Because when Wu Xie and Fatty went to Xisha earlier, they had seen Wang Zanghai in the underwater tomb—he had become a mummy.If what Xiao Hua said is true and Wang Zanghai is the guy in the meteorite coffin in the Ice Palace, how many Wang Zanghais are there in this world?Could it be that like Zhang Qiling, Wang Zanghai is actually not a name, but an official position?

Too much bullshit.

I brought up the fact that Xisha had seen Wang Zanghai's sly mummy, and emphasized that the old Wang next door had been shredded into pieces by us as a fixed stake for attaching bombs.I always feel that Wang Zanghai is also in the ice palace, which is a bit unacceptable.The fat man also looked terrified.

Zhang Yinzhen thought for a while and said: "According to Wang Zanghai's behavior style, it's not difficult to explain. Although he doesn't want others to discover his main coffin, he hopes that someone will discover Tiangong. So he left the information of Tiangong in different ways. In each large tomb, only one fragment is left in each place, so as to guide more people to look for Tiangong."

The fat man couldn't accept it anymore and wanted to stop: "This is not nonsense. You said that this old Wang doesn't want others to find him, so why did he lead others to find Tiangong? Isn't that easier to expose? Infernal Affairs is like this ?”

Zhang Yinzhen shook his head and said: "That's because he is sure, even if those people know Tiangong, find Tiangong, and come in, they will never get out. That is to say, he needs someone to come to Tiangong and be buried here for a long time! And , the more people there are, the better.”

Zhang Yinzhen's words made me think of something for a moment, and I immediately realized that their inference was very possible.I remember that in the mirror image left by Wu Xie, the ceremony of the rebirth of the Wannu King required the killing of a lot of people.If Wang Zanghai really left fragments of information about the Tiangong in various ancient tombs so as to induce others to come forward and throw themselves into the trap, then——I turned pale all of a sudden, and blurted out: "Wang Zanghai's real purpose is to imitate King Wannu The ritual of rebirth, let him be reborn by himself?"

Neither Xiaohua nor Zhang Yinzhen spoke.And this just confirms that my guess is in the right direction.Recalling the moment when the Silk Book of the Warring States Period was placed in front of Wu Xie, a new round of fishing officially began.The ancient tombs where Wang Zanghai left information are also suspected of hints of immortality and rebirth. It was Wang Zanghai who used these hints to induce those greedy people who wanted to live forever, and finally went to the Heavenly Palace to become the cornerstone of his own rebirth.

What a heart that accepts the sky!

Zhang Qiling sat across from me, and when he heard what I said, he raised his head with a gloomy expression, and looked straight into my eyes.I was taken aback by his cold eyes, and suddenly thought, since Wang Zanghai is so sure that he can be reborn in Yunding Tiangong, there must be some necessary conditions here to allow him to realize his ultimate goal.
