Chapter 100 Puppet
"Oh, by the way, you are the core disciple of Yunxiazong. You are much more knowledgeable than me. Do you know the reason for the guy who suddenly fell from the sky just now?" Xu Han suddenly asked, "It seems that... he calls himself a concubine, and those people call him a concubine. What kind of person is this concubine? He is so arrogant and seems to have a lot of time."
"Of course, she is arrogant. Think about it, can a person who can hook up with the mother of Yingzheng, the current empress dowager, not be arrogant?" Ye Menglan said.
"Ah, is there such a thing? This man is really cruel!" Xu Han has been living at the grassroots level in troubled times. Naturally, he does not know anything about this kind of romantic affairs that happened in the court. Now at first glance, when he hears that there are people in the world who are bold enough to hook up with today's empress dowager, I can't help but be shocked. Thinking about this man's unfathomable cultivation, I can't help but care more about him.
"Intuitively, I feel that I may meet him again in the future." Xu Hanruo thought about something and then said, "Menglan, tell me more about this person and let me know more about him and prepare to meet him in the future."
"He is actually a fake eunuch. Before the king of Qin Yingzheng unified the six kingdoms, Lv Buwei, who was the prime minister at that time forged the certificate that the concubine had been castrated, and then let him enter the harem as an eunuch, have fun with the empress dowager **, and finally became pregnant. The Empress Dowager was afraid of widowhood and being pregnant, so she pretended to have a gossip and should move to the palace to avoid the disaster. With the consent of Yingzheng, the Empress Dowager moved to Yong County with the fake eunuch. She had two sons in the palace of Yong County, and she also called herself the 'fake father' of the King of Qin.
"Lv Buwei, this name seems to have been heard somewhere. It's a little familiar. These people are all fierce people," Xu Han was surprised, but he didn't say anything and let Ye Menglan continue talking.
"The reward of serving the Empress Dowager all day long is extremely rich, and the matter of Yongcheng is decided by the concubine. There are thousands of servants waiting for the concubines, and there are also more than 1,000 guests who have defected to the concubines for office. After being awarded the title of Marquis of Changxin, he took Shanyang as his residence and Hexi and Taiyuan counties as his land. Its power is unparallable for a while.
"In the ninth year of the reign of the king of Qin, someone reported that he was a fake eunuch, had an affair with the empress dowager, had two sons, and conspired with the empress dowager: 'The king is the son as the queen.' Ying Zheng was 22 years old. When he heard the news, he sent someone to investigate, which was indeed true and involved the prime minister Lv Buwei. The king of Qin was furious. However, at this time, the concubine preempted and took advantage of the wind and sunny April to salute the Qi Nian Palace in Yongcheng, stole the imperial seal of the king of Qin and the empress dowager, and transferred county soldiers and guards to attack the Qi Nian Palace.
"Ying Zheng ordered Chang Pingjun and Chang Wenjun to lead Xianyang soldiers to quell the rebellion, and the two armies fought in Xianyang. Hundreds of rebels were killed, and their army was defeated and fled in a hurry with their best friends. Soon, he was completely caught by the Qin army. Qin Huang's car cracked and destroyed his three clans. Twenty people, including the dead guard Weiji, Neishi, Zuo Geji, and the middle doctor Lingqi, followed the concubine's guests and gave up the guilty as the salary of the temple - the ghost salary; more than 4,000 people who committed the guilty took the title and moved to Shu for three years. The Empress Dowager and her two sons were killed together. The empress dowager expelled from Xianyang, moved to the Diyang Palace outside the city, cut off the mother-child relationship, never saw each other again, and made it clear that the courtiers dare to admonish the empress dowager, 'kill her and kill her back'. As a result, 27 ministers were brutally executed and hung their bodies on the palace wall to show them to the public.
Xu Han has been living at the lowest level of society. The court is heaven for him. He didn't expect that such a messy thing would happen in "paradise", which made him stunned.
When he returned to the cave, he saw candles burning quietly on the four walls of the cave, and the air was filled with a strong smell of herbs. Xu Han actually had a warm feeling as if he had returned home.
Ye Menglan was so excited that she didn't want to leave here and return to Black Rock City at all. She couldn't wait to urge Xu Han to take out the giant tripod and have a look.
Xu Han looked around and saw that the cave was very spacious and the top of the cave was high enough, so she summoned the giant tripod as she wished.
As soon as the giant tripod appeared, Xiaobai, who was lying on Xu Han's arm and dosing like a clever cat, was suddenly refreshed, "Wow!" With a sound, he jumped down from Xu Han's arm and quickly climbed along one foot of the giant tripod to the top of the tripod. At this time, Xiaobai is like a curious baby. He looks around on the tripod and grabs it with his claws from time to time. It seems that an antique artist is appraisaning treasure.
"Wow! Looking at it from a distance and close contact, it really gives people a completely different feeling.
Ye Menglan surrounded the giant tripod and admired it. From time to time, she picked up her toes and touched the pattern shape on the wall of the tripod. A pair of big eyes sparkled, and she looked intoxicated and addicted to it.
Xu Han also surrounded the giant tripod, walking slowly and observing silently.
Just now, due to the tight time and the critical situation, it is impossible for him to calm down and observe carefully. Now, there is no danger around him. He can immerse himself in the giant tripod, feel it silently, observe with his eyes, and explore with his divine knowledge. However, to his surprise, his consciousness could not penetrate the bronze surface of the giant tripod! When it is one or two inches away from the bronze surface of the giant tripod, it completely dissipates without a trace.
This giant tripod is actually prohibited from divine detection!
This discovery surprised Xu Han even more, and finally knew that there were so many masters of six or seven major forces, but they could only use the most clumsy, rough and primitive methods to get the giant tripod out of the pool. I finally know why the space magic weapon above the divine level can receive it.
Turning around the giant tripod, Xu Han felt that the more he looked at it, the more mysterious the giant tripod was, with an indescribable charm. He was determined that this tripod was not only commemorative, but also had some shocking secrets, otherwise it would never arouse so many people's covet. But what is the secret? Xu Han doesn't know. I'm afraid there are not many people who know this secret.
"Do you have to refine it before you know that shocking secret?" Xu Han said in his heart, and then he laughed dumbly, and his consciousness could not penetrate. How to refine it?
A squirrel surrounded the giant tripod with great interest and studied for a long time, but they got nothing and couldn't study anything. Finally, he was tired of watching it. Xiaobai simply slipped back to Xu Han's arm to take a nap, and Ye Menglan was also tired and sat on the ground looking at the giant tripod in a daze.
"Okay, let's go back to Heiyan City. I didn't return all night. I haven't seen you all day today. My parents must be very anxious," Ye Menglan sighed. Then he said, "However, I'm afraid it's almost dusk now and we can't go out, otherwise we will become the midnight snack of poisonous insects and beasts."
"It doesn't matter. Let's explore the way. I don't think the passage that appeared later seems simple. It will take a lot of time to get out of there. Now there is nothing to do. Let's go in and have a look." Xu Han said.
"Well, that makes sense. Let's go!" Ye Menglan took it seriously and immediately stood up.
"Since you are leaving, why don't you take away all these medicinal materials? Anyway, the magic doctor has passed away and has never been used again!" Xu Han looked at a small room under the high platform and said.
"Well, whatever you want," Ye Menglan naturally had no objection.
So, Xu Han walked into those small rooms, searched them one by one, and collected all the medicinal materials in the room into the Heavenly Ring. Then, according to the requirements of the magic doctor's suicide note, the passage leading to the outside was blocked with stones and the gate of the cave was closed. After doing all this and making sure that nothing is missing, he and Ye Menglan walked hand in hand towards the passage.
This channel appeared after Xu Han followed Bian Que's will. Of course, it is unlikely to be a dead end. Maybe it will lead to an incredible place, or even a shocking treasure.
The two walked to the entrance of the passage and were stunned to find a puppet with a lamp on his head in the passage.
The puppet man is only one head shorter than Xu Han. Its head is a square stutter, about the size of an ordinary person's head. It draws a smiling face on the other side of the passage, with a simple and honest expression, giving people a sense of safety and reliability. The neck is a round wooden strip as thick as a small piece of wrist. The body is rectangular, which is obviously sawn from a piece of giant wood. The limbs are made of slender logs, and movable corks are installed at the joints according to the proportion of the human body. The hands are subdivided into palms, wrists and arms, and the legs are subdivided into thighs, knees, calves and soles of feet, and even the toes are roughly carved.
There is a lamp in the center of the top of the puppet's square head, which emits a faint orange light. The light is like a bean, which is not far away from the night pearl in Xu Han's hand. A faint sandalwood fragrance emanates from the flames of the lamp, which makes people feel calm, as if practicing.
