Chapter 20 The Glorious Protagonist

Zhao Shucheng saw the curious eyes of others and said, "It's actually very simple. The secret medicine has been applied to the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book, which can prevent the black and dark necks from approaching, and even have a deterrent effect on them."

"Although this thing is not big, it works very well for people with black faces. Didn't you notice that they were staying outside for a long time, but they didn't dare to get close to the Nether Palace?"

Hu Bayi and others took a look and found that these people had black faces and thorns. Although they gathered in the square, they never approached five or six meters away from the Nether Hall.

"What exactly is it that makes them so afraid? It's impossible that this Dragon Bone Heavenly Book is really made of Dragon Bone, right?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and shook his head, saying, "Who can tell me this clearly? After all, this Dragon Bone Heavenly Book is an object from thousands of years ago, and it has been difficult to explain it clearly now. Whether a creature like a dragon really exists has never been confirmed. Naturally, no one will know whether it is true or not."

Wang Kaixuan said carelessly: "Master Zhao, don't be mysterious. Isn't this a turtle shell?"

Zhao Shucheng shook his head and said meaningfully: "You think it is a turtle shell, but how do you know that it is really a turtle shell, not a carved animal bone? After all, for thousands of years, all traces of carving will be natural, right?"

When the others were stunned when they heard Zhao Shucheng say this, they knew that Zhao Shucheng would definitely not be aimless. Since they said it, there must be a certain basis, but it is difficult for them to understand why Zhao Shucheng thought it was carved from a bone of an animal.

Zhao Shucheng looked at the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book not far ahead, and an inexplicable smile flashed on his face. He was still suspected before that there was something related to the snake god in this ancient tomb, which made Hu Bayi and others deepen the curse. However, there was nothing found in this ancient tomb. Even when he saw the notes of the detection team, he subconsciously felt that it might be related to the curse.

However, after seeing the well-preserved Dragon Bone Heavenly Book, I realized that the strengthening of the curse of Hu Bayi and others was not radiation at all, but caused by the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book.

The Dragon Bone Heavenly Book obtained by Yang Xueli's grandfather has been wandering away for many years and even obtained by many people. The remaining power is very little, so it does not cause much harm to Sherry Yang. If this is not the case, I am afraid that Sherry Yang's grandfather and mother would have been cursed and tortured to death earlier.

This is also why when the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book was obtained, when the Partridge Whistle faced those unknown insects, it had no effect of intimidation. Instead, it made the insects gnaw on their arms and followed Master Chen’s legs. Now the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book can make people feel scared and even take the initiative to retreat.

In the cave with dark faces and thorns, Zhao Shucheng and the others saw the corpse with dark faces and thorns remaining on the ground, as well as some burning and explosion marks, but no one else was seen.

"Master Zhao, where did Ma Dabang and the others go?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "What do you think? We saw a lot of cocoons on the way we came, all of whom were people who had entered here, and so was Ma Dabang and the others. But we don't have time to find the traces of these people, so it's better to leave early."

"That's right, let's leave early. I always feel it feels furry here." Big Jinya looked around vigilantly.

After walking out of the territory where people were black and irritated, Zhao Shucheng and the others came to the territory of the bats again. However, the bats did not attack people here, and they even fell asleep more peacefully than before.

The group followed Zhao Shucheng and soon arrived at the entrance of the cave he had entered before. Zhao Shucheng took the lead in directly, and the others followed behind. After only a short while, they crawled out of the passage and came back to the Fishbone Temple.

However, at this moment, the Fishbone Temple is not as deserted as before. Instead, there are many people here, including Chen Xiaozi, but more are police.

Seeing so many policemen here, Da Jinya and Wang Kaixuan were numb. They were carrying Mingyi from Li Chunfeng's tomb. If they were caught, they would not be charged with tomb robbing.

Chen listened with his ears on his back for a while, but when no one came out, he asked curiously: "I'll tell you guys, why are you here? Ma Dabang and the others?"

Zhao Shucheng laughed when he heard this and said, "Mr. Chen, you are brave enough to make a move. You want the police to arrest Ma Dabing. But it's a pity that we are not with them, so we didn't enter the mysteries together, and we don't know where they are now. However, when we were exploring before, we heard a lot of gunfire and explosions, but there was no movement afterwards."

"You haven't gone together?"

"Of course not, what's wrong?"

The police frowned when they heard this, and were about to enter the mysteries and look for traces of Ma Dadan and others. It seemed that they would not be finished if they didn't catch them.

Zhao Shucheng stopped the entrance of the cave and said, "Comrade Police, you can't go in. The danger here is not small at all. There are hundreds of vampire bats inside, not to mention that there is still one person tall, even comparable to a car with a black face, that is, a big spider."

Seeing that the police seemed to not believe it, Zhao Shucheng took out a camera helplessly and said, "If you don't believe it, you can take a look. The photos we took in the mysteries can tell the danger and the bodies of Ma Dadan and others. If you really want to go in and look for it, I think it's best to gather a lot of people and prepare a lot of weapons."

The police looked at the camera in Zhao Shucheng's hand, especially when they saw the photos above, and found that it was indeed a cocoon of the body, and a spider over one person tall, which really looked extremely dangerous. Of course, what they were more curious about was the camera in Zhao Shucheng's hand. After all, in this era, if we talk about SLRs or film cameras, they were not unfamiliar with it, but this kind of camera that could directly see the picture was somewhat rare.

In fact, the camera in Zhao Shucheng's hand was a digital camera that was thrown into the portable space. He suddenly remembered that he had just taken a photo on the road just now. Now it happened to be Zhao Shucheng's evidence. On the one hand, he cleared his suspicion, and on the other hand, he also prevented the police from rashly entering the mysteries.

Of course, some of the bright weapons that Zhao Shucheng and the others carried were finally chosen to donate to the country, and Wang Kaixuan was very upset about this. Zhao Shucheng asked him to be calm. After most of them handed over, he hid a few items, which always made them a small profit. Moreover, the main task this time was not those bright weapons, but the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book.

Several people were breathing the fresh air outside, but Hu Bayi was very curious about who was inside the coffin.

"Master Zhao, this should not be Li Chunfeng's admiration? After all, according to Feng Shui, the hidden treasures are very suitable for burying women, and their descendants will receive blessings."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "You don't have to guess. It's Li Chunfeng inside. However, there shouldn't be many things in the coffin. Instead, there are many traps. If you don't pay attention, you will die there, so it's better not to open the coffin."

"How did you know it must be Li Chunfeng?"

"It's very simple. A smart person like Li Chunfeng has made up everything. The hidden treasure is indeed suitable for women, but don't forget the place name here, Longling. Dragon is Yang and Feng is Yin. Li Chunfeng's choice is his reason, let alone he doesn't believe that he will be opened by someone, so he will feel at ease to put the body in the coffin. This place has nothing to do with us, and there is no need for us to keep pursuing who is inside and who is sacred. Instead of thinking about these here, it's better to think about how to crack the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book and find the Dust Dowel Pearl earlier."

Fatty Wang suddenly said anxiously: "Yes, Mr. Zhao is right, Miss Yang, let's find the Luchen Pearl as soon as possible and untie the curse as soon as possible!"

When Yang Xueli heard Zhao Shucheng say this, she nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to Professor Sun now. The mystery on the tortoise shell needs Professor Sun to explain to us."

After chatting with Chen Xiazi for a few words, they separated. Zhao Shucheng and the others returned to their fellow villagers' homes and saw Professor Sun who was enjoying the cool air in the yard.

When Professor Sun saw the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book taken out by Yang Xueli, he was excited to take it and looked at it. He found that the character Dian represented the mysterious ancient Dian Kingdom and the character Xian of King Xian on the skeleton.

"These two words are not connected at all on this tortoise shell, and I have to check the information before talking about it."

Wang Kaixuan said while eating: "It doesn't mean you have said for a long time. You can't let us turn Yunnan into the sky, right?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Fatty, how do you speak? Professor Sun, don't care, these two words are enough."

Seeing Hu Bayi and Yang Xueli looking at him, Zhao Shucheng said: "In fact, these two words have already shown the whereabouts of the Luchen Pearl. The existence of the ancient Dian Kingdom is not a secret. According to records of the Grand Historian, in 278 BC, Chu sent Chu general Zhuang Qiao to lead a team to the Dianchi area and conquered the locals. Later, the way back was cut off by Qin, and finally stayed in the local area and established the Dian Kingdom. According to historical records and archaeological discoveries, the Dian Kingdom existed for more than 170 years in history, which appeared in the late Warring States Period and disappeared during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han. In 109 BC, Emperor Wu of Han sent troops to conquer Yunnan. The Dian King surrendered to the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Wu gave the Dian King golden seal."

Hu Bayi frowned when he heard this and said, "Is this a little wrong? This tortoise shell is not something from the Western Zhou Dynasty, but if the Dian Kingdom was in the late Warring States period, it should be considered from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, right?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and nodded and said, "It is true, but this Dian Kingdom is not the other Dian Kingdom. The Dian Kingdom recorded in historical books is just a Dian Kingdom composed of the remnants of the ancient Dian Kingdom and the Chu army. The Ancient Dian Kingdom is an older country. But therefore we have no problem with the location of the Dian Kingdom."

Da Jinya said: "Mr. Zhao said it well. I have a little understanding of the ancient Dian Kingdom. It is a mysterious country. Even historians call it a lost country. It existed as early as the Shang Dynasty, but disappeared during the Western Zhou Dynasty. Later, another Dian Kingdom appeared. In order to distinguish, the names of Dian Kingdom and the ancient Dian Kingdom were found."

"It is said that in the middle of the dynasty, there was a very serious civil strife. Some people in the middle of the country left, entered the mountains and ridges, and lived a life of isolation from the world. From then on, these people disappeared in history. Later people's understanding of them was limited to some words."

Professor Sun nodded and smiled and said, "No, but for King Xian, the relevant records were recorded in the late Shang Dynasty. A group of people in the ancient Dian Kingdom believed in evil gods and witchcraft. In order to avoid chaos, these people left the ancient Dian Kingdom and entered the deep mountains and forests. Their leader was King Xian. Although King Xian was a little famous in Yunnan, he could only be regarded as the King of Grass Heads after all, so there are not many records of him in history books. As for the tomb of King Xian you mentioned, there have always been only legends, but no one has found any traces."

Yang Xueli said: "Professor Sun, if you can't explain clearly, then we will go directly to Yunnan. Lao Hu has the ability to divide the gold and settle the acupoints. I think we can use this method to find the tomb of King Xian."

Hu Bayi shook his head and said, "The Fenjin Ding Acupoint can only work in places where there are flat rivers and no veins rise and fall. The Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau is complex in terrain, and there are many mountains and rivers, and the climate is also volatile. If you want to use the Fenjin Ding Acupoint to find the tomb of King Xian, if there is no clear prompt, it may be more difficult than climbing to the sky."

Professor Sun said in a little embarrassedly: "But I don't have any clues to the specific clues of the tomb of King Xian. So overall, it will take me some time to search for the story and study it before I can find the relevant clues."

At this time, the voice of Chen Xiaozi suddenly came from outside the window: "Looking for ancient books, studying and proofreading, and then you can cheat you for a few years of idle meals."

When Professor Sun heard the words of Blind Chen, he quickly walked out. When he saw Blind Chen outside, his face suddenly changed.

The two began to quarrel, one thought it was a liar, the other was an old man, a tomb robber, and meddling in other people's business.

Finally, after everyone's persuasion, the two stopped arguing, but Professor Sun felt that Blind Chen was just here to mess around, and the tomb of King Xian did not exist at all. At least, no clues were found except himself.

Chen Xiaozi said: "Why does the tomb of King Xian stop exist? If you don't know, it doesn't mean others don't know. The tomb of King Xian really exists, and I've been there back then."

"I was an old acquaintance back then. We also received news from the ancient Dian Kingdom and King Xian, so I took my brothers to dig the tomb of the last Dian King in Lijiashan. However, the last Dian King was really poor, so in anger, he demolished the coffin of the Dian King. But this was also wrong. Just under the coffin of the Dian King, I found this map of the human skin with the address of the tomb of the King Xian."

When Professor Sun heard Chen Jianzi say this, he immediately sneered and said, "You found the map of King Xian's tomb in the King of Dian. Why don't you blow it a little more outrageous?"

"Don't disbelief, let you open your eyes!" As he said that, Blind Chen took out a handkerchief from his arms, and after opening it, he saw a map of human skin.
