Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 616 Origin
Tofu's words were straightforward, and Bai Sanye still laughed, to the point that he was a bit like the Maitreya Buddha described by Tofu. He said: "I naturally have my own way. Although my willingness is different, our purpose is the same. This This map was obtained by Chen Ci from a mysterious place, and Wu Shui later drew it from memory. You have been to the tomb of King Juer, so you should know the truth about Queen Baoxiang, right?"

I nodded, and said: "It is said that the treasure elephant queen can use the giant ear elephant to mobilize the ghost army, please the gods. Now it seems that the treasure elephant queen can actually use the corpse secret technique, and the corpse army is hostile to the Han army. The Han army retreated."

Third Master Bai nodded slightly, and said, "Have you ever thought about where these army of corpses come from?"

Tofu wondered, "Isn't it the queen who practiced it?"

Bai Sanye smiled and said, "She is a queen, how can she learn these things?"

I thought about it a few times, and said, "Puzhen did it, right?" The third master Bai showed admiration in his eyes, and said, "You only know that there are big and small mourning prisons, but you don't know why the big and small mourning prisons are in the end. Separation. In fact, the Ailao Kingdom did not occupy a large area. There was a group of foreign immigrants who settled in the mountains and swamps, where the miasma was rife, and then merged into the Ailao. Until the Han family was unified, the aliens did not want to It belonged to the Han Dynasty, and only then did Xiao Ailao exist."

Tofu asked him how he knew these inside stories. I'm afraid archaeologists don't know these things, right?Bai Sanye smiled slightly, did not answer the question of tofu, but continued.

At the beginning of the establishment of Xiao Ailao, survival was difficult, and it was suppressed everywhere, and it was destroyed several times. It was not until Queen Baoxiang came to power that everything improved.Moreover, this improvement came very suddenly, and the weak Ailao seemed to have become stronger and stronger in a short period of time, and it was not the Han army who harassed them, but they began to attack the Han army actively. The secret technique of manipulating corpses.But Queen Baoxiang naturally doesn't know these things, and all of this was indeed brought to her by Puzhen. "

Tofu pondered and said, "Could it be that these two are concubines?"

I was thinking along with Bai Sanye's forehead, when Tofu suddenly said something like this, I almost died of anger, and said, "Is it a concubine, don't you know in your own mind?"

Tofu argued that he hadn't fully integrated yet, how could he know everything, and besides, even if he was really a concubine, what did he have to do with him, since he and the Queen of Ailao had been separated for more than 1000 years, and they had never held hands.

I told him to shut up, don't embarrass me, and then motioned for Bai to continue.

Napuzhen and Queen Baoxiang may indeed have some relationship, or maybe it is just a cooperative relationship. After a long time, no one will be clear about this.And those secret corpses were obviously obtained by Puzhen.It is said that the ancestors of Xiao Ailao came from the grasslands, passed through Shaanxi, Hunan, Guizhou and other places, and finally settled in Yunnan.As a result, the identity of the little Ailao people immediately surfaced, just as we had guessed at the beginning, they are the clansmen who migrated from the ghosts.

After this group of people moved out from Guishen, they went all the way to the Central Plains, scattered all over the place, and the last group settled in Yunnan. This must be a very long process. The queen ordered the construction of the tomb of King Juer.

First of all, one thing is certain, this time we went to the tomb of King Juer, and did not see the complete truth, because we did not see the corpse.There was nothing on the white marble corpse bed.To this day, no one knows exactly why the tomb of King Juer was built, but the significance of its existence is definitely not simply to protect a stone.

If you want to protect a stone, such a project is really overkill, so that stone should be just an extremely precious funeral object, and it was put in by Puzhen.Puzhen must have attached great importance to this thing. Why did he put it in the tomb of King Juer?
Thousands of years later, no matter how many past events are submerged in history, we can only speculate on the truth of what happened back then based on some clues.And this map obviously has more than one copy. Chen Ci had already obtained this map more than ten years before his grandfather found Queen Baoxiang. It's a pity that he didn't have time to give the map to his grandfather.

It is no longer known where Chen Ci obtained this map.But at that time, Chen Ci had been looking for clues to the curse, so the origin of this map must also be related to this.Although the third master Bai didn't talk about his own affairs, I can also guess that the members of the Bai family are peeping at the 'key' just like Lu Su, and the map in Chen Ci's hand was once in Baoxiang. The queen's tomb was unearthed, and Queen Baoxiang has a mysterious relationship with Puzhen, so the significance of this map is self-evident.

Obviously, this thing definitely has something to do with the so-called key.

But at that time, Chen Ci probably didn't have that much understanding of the 'key', so he didn't turn his attention to this map, so until death, the existence of this map was unknown.As for the mute, after many years, his memory slowly recovered, and he drew it according to his memory.

According to Bai Sanye, the mute probably knew that something unexpected would happen to him, so he left this map to him.

When I heard this, I felt strange and said, "You and Chen Ci snatched this thing back then. You two should be enemies. If he didn't give it to me for such an important thing, why did he give it to you?"

Bai Sanye smiled and said, "Young man, the last time you planned to deal with me with the police, did you really think I was so easy to dismiss? If it wasn't for his sake, there is no one who dared to act wildly on my head like you It's so easy now."

Tofu touched his nose and said, "So you kindly let us go? So are you and the mute enemies or friends?"

Bai Sanye took a sip of tea, still smiling, and asked: "What is a friend? What is an enemy? Don't you even understand the simplest truth? There are no permanent enemies in this world, only eternal interests. Chen Ci is an extraordinary person. I wanted to kill him so much back then, but I never succeeded. But the last time I met him, I looked at his young face and looked at myself. There was no hatred at all. You don’t understand how it feels to see an old friend with the same demeanor again.”

I saw that he was talking a bit mysteriously, so I didn't take it seriously, and asked: "Where did you get this map statement? You don't know? What's the use of this map?"

Bai Sanye looked at the map on the coffee table, sneered, and said, "You think that Lu Su wanted to arrest him just to figure out how to use those two stones? If only those stones can make those weird things The magic lamp is too easy."

I heard something in his words, and I couldn't help but feel moved. Could there be something else besides those two strange stones?
Sure enough, he heard Bai Sanye say: "Although there is no definite evidence yet, according to my investigations and explorations over the years, it is almost indistinguishable. After Napuzhen died, he wanted to cultivate himself into a fairy body, but The secret about the key, but he wanted to keep it to himself, for fear of being known by the world. Therefore, some important things were scattered and stored. Even if someone got one or two of them, they would not be able to solve the secret. Zhao Yi knew about the Eight Carp Doujiao The whereabouts of the Zhenhai Stone, that's why Wei Nanjing was organized to fight, and Lu Su took the opportunity to mix in. In the tomb of King Juer, there is the stone that can take a picture, and what is the rest and where it is placed, no one knows. know.

In fact, everyone knew about the existence of the Juer King's tomb a long time ago, but they never took action.One is to be afraid of the danger, and the other is to use this time to explore other clues.But so far, all the clues have been broken.

Bai Sanye didn't expect that the mute would suddenly give him such a map. The mute looked indifferent at the time, put the map on the table, and said coldly: "I remembered this two years ago. I don't know what the use of this map is. , but I know it's important."

Bai Sanye was surprised: "You give it to me?"

The mute nodded slightly, with a haughty look on his face, he didn't even bother to say anything.

Bai Sanye laughed loudly, and said: "You, you, you never give in in everything. Back then we fought to the death, but now you take the initiative to give it to me." Then, Bai Sanye's face darkened, and his voice Hoarsely said: "Chen Ci, this is not like what you did."

The mute said coldly: "My surname is Wu."

Bai Sanye doesn't care, whether it's Chen or Wu, it doesn't make any difference to him, he only recognizes people.

He took the map in his hand and observed it carefully, and finally said: "Why did you give it to me?"

The mute crossed his legs, leaned on the sofa, closed his eyes as if resting his mind, and said after a long time, "I have a hunch..." Bai Sanye waited for him to continue, but the mute finally said nothing.Could it be that at that time, he already had a premonition that he would never return?
