Master of Soul-Building - C318
Since the geese Grand Elder was referring to the the Great Wild Goose Pagoda, then the Ling Pearl must be referring to the pearl at the top of the tower.
In ancient times, people would pay attention to things they had built. When they built buildings, they would place an item in the middle of a tall building. With this item here, they could build things that would last for thousands of years to protect themselves from lightning and fire.
Although he said so, no one knew whether it would work or not.
This the Great Wild Goose Pagoda had been here for a thousand years, they definitely had something like this on top of the tower.
After I finished listening to Zhang Tiangang, I said:
“This Grand Master has set this question and it’s quite difficult. This Xuan Du the Great Wild Goose Pagoda is a protected cultural relic and a group of people have to buy tickets to see it. The pearl is still on top of the pagoda and we might be able to obtain it.”
Unexpectedly, Zhang Tiangang shook his head and said:
“What do you think this is? This question is at most an appetizer. The hardest part is the lock on the Black Turtle under the well.”
As soon as I heard these words, I wanted to ask a question. When Grand Master said those words, how could I understand that Black Tortoise was the True Martial Great Emperor of the North. He was the True God.
How could it be under the well with chains on it? Isn’t this pure riddle?
“I don’t know either. At least for the moment, I don’t know what he meant.”
If that’s the case, we won’t be able to solve the first two questions between the two teams.
As for the lunar mirror behind me, just by hearing the name, I found it difficult.
However, before we could say anything, Tu Hai spoke first. He happily told me that the other questions could be considered as extremely difficult, but this question was basically giving out points.
How could he be so confident? It was because Tu Hai knew the whole story.
In this northwest region, the water and soil were dry and there was a lack of rain in many areas. After being scorched by fire, the soil had dried and cracked, forming countless cracks.
In the past, he had been to one of these places. It could be said to be one of the best places in the world.
“You guys don’t know, that place is full of one thing …”
At this point, he even began to play a game of charade, let’s guess.
Since it’s already like this, I was already burning with anxiety. I didn’t have time to waste here with him, so I might as well just let him off the hook and say whatever he wanted to say.
Tu Hai shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said,
“Even in adversity, you still have to enjoy yourself in the midst of hardships. You brat, you just don’t know how to live.”
“Life and survival are two different things. The situation we are facing right now is clearly the latter. If you have the mood, then I don’t have the mood.”
I couldn’t help feeling bitter, because I thought it was a classic, and if I didn’t have a small notebook with me, I would have to write it down.
Seeing that it was impossible to solve the riddle, Tu Hai decided to say it out loud.
If I tell you, don’t believe me, that place is full of dried corpses, and the corpses have been buried in the ground for hundreds or even thousands of years, but they will not rot. In the end, when they are dug out, the corpses would be vivid and lifelike, as if they had just laid down in the Coffin.
I understand that. When I was young, I read about Lou Lan’s Female Cadaver. When the corpse was dug out, it was no different from a person who had just fallen asleep.
However, after being exposed to the air for a short period of time, all the moisture on his body was sucked out and he became a shriveled corpse.
But what does this have to do with the lunar mirror that Grand Master is talking about?
Tu Hai told us not to worry, and after he finished speaking, he said, “This dried corpse does not have much to do with Mirror, but you guys didn’t know that there will be Mirror s in this corpse, and each family has their own money or not.”
Tu Hai said that the Mirror was based on their family’s circumstances. When a rich family put the Mirror in, they would place it in gold and silver, and even more powerful ones would place precious stones on it.
The home that had no money would at least have a bronze mirror inside the Coffin.
According to the legends, Mirror could be used to ward off evil spirits. However, in normal Central Plains cultures, Mirror would only be placed in front of lid of coffin.
This is the first time I’ve heard of an accompanying object that a Mirror put into a Coffin’s body.
Not only me, but also him. This Mirror is in the small town in the northwest direction, the people inside call them lunar mirror.
As for why this name was called, no one knew. It had only been passed down for hundreds, or even thousands, of years.
“Do you think that this is what Grand Master wants when he talks about lunar mirror?” After thinking for a while, Tu Hai said:
“I think it’s possible. However, this serious lunar mirror must not be some ordinary person’s burial object, at least it has a great background.”
We were also in a hurry, and he made sense to us.
Since he only had a week, he might as well visit that place first.
The county that Tuhai was talking about was called Shuofang County, a small county in the mountains at the foot of the northwest. The city was built very early, but because the population had never been there, it had always been a problem with poor counties in the northwest.
He needed a guide to this place. He thought for a while, then said that he had a friend who could raise sheep in the northwest of Shuofang and ask for his help.
Since we already know the place, and we have a guide, then this matter is not a problem. After thinking about it, we decided to leave the next day.
But the biggest problem is that we all have injuries.
After being injured for a hundred days, even walking is a problem now. Wanting to ride for more than an hour to find the lunar mirror is even harder than ascending to the heavens.
“Where can we go?”
Brother Fang, on the other hand, had a calm and collected expression. He told us that as long as we were willing to climb, it wouldn’t be hard for anyone to help us.
“Are we going to fly?” I pretended to tease him, but Brother Fang shook his head and said:
“If it really doesn’t work, we can ride on the wheelchair, don’t forget how many powerful people in the world have done great things on the wheelchair, if not we can try it too.”
Honestly speaking, this is the first time I have tried this kind of thing in my life, and it is also the first time that I have been able to borrow four wheelchair that night.
These were all German goods marked with foreign code. Not only could they be used for manual pushing, they were also equipped with electric appliances. They travelled at speeds of 10 km per hour and could travel as far as 30 km per hour.
