"It's a human?!"

"Brother Yu has a book on his phone called "The Chronicles of the King of Shu"."

Hearing what Shang Qingyun said, I quickly took out my phone, and sure enough I found the book "The Chronicles of the King of Shu" in the folder dedicated to transferring documents. I don't remember when I saved this book.

"It's a fragment of the Wudang Library. Senior brother asked me for Brother Yu's number and uploaded it."

Although I don’t know when I saved this book, I heard about it when I was browsing historical materials. The original version of the book has been lost. The "Book of the King of Shu" that can be seen now was written by a man named Zheng Zheng during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.

Park collected various historical materials and recompiled it.

Unexpectedly, there are still originals left in Wudang's library.

I don’t know much about Wudang, but I have heard that there is a library in the inner mountain of Wudang, which contains many ancient books. My dad said that when he was a child, he and his grandfather lived in Wudang for a while.

The first time he made a mistake, he was imprisoned in the library. Thanks to this great blessing, he read many classics that were unknown to outsiders.

Although the original book here is also a fragment, it can provide me with a lot of information.

These include records of Cancong's life and the story of how he led his tribe to escape as gods when he was about to die.

"Why did Uncle Tiangan upload this to me? Oh, needless to say, I know, let me find the answer myself, right?" I turned off my phone after reading the document, "So the stone statues here are actually the ancient statues that followed the silkworms and transformed into gods.

Shu citizens?"

I looked at these stone statues carefully again: "But, did they see Medusa? How could they turn into stone?"

I suddenly had an idea, and turned around and asked Shang Qingyun: "Can these be touched? Will nothing come out to mess with me?"

Shang Qingyun said: "Brother Yu has been infected by the Yanwei Gu. You can touch it, don't be afraid."

"Why does it sound like Zhongyanwei Gu is a good thing? It makes me immune to all poisons..." I complained and stretched out my hand to the stone statue. I was very nervous, fearing that something would suddenly come alive again, even if it didn't

Even if you bite me, my heart can't bear it.

I tried touching the stone statue, and seeing that it didn't jump up and bite me, I felt relieved. After repeated investigations, I confirmed my suspicion.

These are not stone statues, but human chrysalis.

They are similar to those human chrysalis in Osi Kingdom, the only difference is that the ancestors of ancient Shu did not become unrecognizable due to cocoons.

I recalled the previous discoveries in the Qiduo Tomb of Haiyan Dragon Palace, the mother voodoo, the Yanwei voodoo, the Hetu Luoshu, and the voodoos discovered in the ancient Shu Kingdom. After sorting out my thoughts, I can almost connect these things.

Got up and made some inferences.

I just needed to confirm some details, so I opened the fragmentary copy of "The Chronicles of the King of Shu" on my phone. After flipping through it, I found the annotations left in it. Looking at this handwriting, it was obviously my father's "dog crawling" character.

On the name of Cancong, King of Shu, my father drew a crooked, insect-like symbol. This symbol was drawn by Shang Qingyun for me, and it is the ancient Chinese character for Cancong.

There are anecdotes about Silkworm Cong recorded in the fragmentary book "Benji of the King of Shu", including that he could not speak when he was young, but he understood insect language and could drive insects. In particular, he learned how to use silk thread from silkworms, so

Named Silkworm Cong.

Dad also annotated different versions next to this paragraph, which mentioned that Cancong once obtained the method of raising birds and insects in a place called "Black Water", and invented the method of raising silkworms and insect poison, which is based on

It is the folklore of his early travels in the west.

The most important thing is that it is said that this secret technique was recorded on a piece of horsehide because there was no paper or cloth at that time.

Because there was an animal at that time, people called it "Dragon Horse", and because of the story of Fuxi meeting a dragon, horse and divine turtle carrying the River Map on the Luoshui River, the horse skin that recorded this information was called the "River Map"

”.

Considering the discrepancies in the time records about the Ou Si Kingdom, I roughly deduce that the silkworm girl in the Taiping Silkworm Horse Chronicles is not the same person who founded the Ou Si Country.

If you believe it, there is no problem with both times.

Then I deduce that the complete story about the Osi Kingdom should be that the earliest Li Mu fell in love with a woman and taught her the art of taming animals. The woman only learned the method of raising gu and silkworms and recorded it.

Then she returned home. The Yellow Emperor was afraid that she would reveal this skill and it would be obtained by the Chiyou tribe, so he sent troops to the Osi Kingdom. Then the woman did not know what method she used to sink the mountain into the ground.

The horse skin recording this technique was later obtained by Silkworm Cong, who used it to educate the tribe. Later, the ancient Shu tribe fought with other tribes, and a woman's father was captured by the enemy. The woman stole the horse skin and wanted to exchange it with her father, but

Unexpectedly, the horse's hide had already been cursed by silkworms, and it turned into a human moth.

However, there are still some unclear explanations. In this case, why did Mapi and Yanwei Gu go to Oosi Country again?

How did that woman sink the mountain into the ground?

I told my question to Shang Qingyun, and he nodded: "Brother Yu, have you forgotten the fake tomb passage outside?"

"What's wrong with the fake tomb passage?" I spoke and immediately understood what he meant, "You mean this was done by the Ninth Family?"

Shang Qingyun nodded: "Hetu and Silkworm moved to Osi Country just to hide the location of this place. If Hetu is still here, Tongyuan can find it through the Luoshu hidden in Haiyan."

"Is it the big turtle shell we found in Haiyan Dragon Palace?"

"Um."

"The problem is they still found it."

"Only on the periphery. The Miao leader has never entered here."

I thought the same thing. Even the archaeological team led by my father was trapped at the door, let alone the fake tomb passage. If it hadn't been for my luck, I would have lost my head and body.

"No, let's put it this way, Yanwei Gu is also a clue to find this place, and from what you said, Yanwei Gu is a treasure. How come it was also found in Ou Si Country and Tongyuan, but it was got by me?

Already?"

Hearing my question, Shang Qingyun was also stunned. Apparently he had not thought of this.

I paced back and forth on the spot and spoke out my doubts: "First of all, why is Yanwei Gu in the Ousi Kingdom? Secondly, that Silkworm Girl is at best a traitor from the ancient Shu Kingdom. What is the purpose of bringing her to the Ousi Kingdom?"

And, um, no, it’s too messy.”

"Brother Yu, cell phone."

If he didn’t remind me, I almost forgot. I looked through the Chronicles of the King of Shu again and found a folder in it, all written by my father:

"Hey, son~Have you encountered a problem? Dad is here to help you spoil it!"

When I saw this sentence, I felt inexplicably angry. At the same time, I realized that he seemed to know my current situation very well.

Later, my dad really helped me answer my questions. For example, why Yanwei Gu is in Ousi Country? We need to find the answer in the sarcophagus in Cancong.

Why is Silkworm Girl in the Ousi Kingdom? To be precise, she is not in the Ousi Kingdom, but in the Sea Eye Dragon Palace.

Why women can sink mountains into the ground is not something we can know now.

Basically, the answer is equivalent to not answering, but just pointing out a way for me.

"Qingyun, as expected, my grandfather and my father are trying to induce me to investigate something, right?" I stared at Shang Qingyun.

Shang Qingyun turned his head away.

"It's useless for you to ignore me. This attitude has been made clear to me. Tell me, what are my dad and the others going to do?"

I grabbed Shang Qingyun's head, pulled it over soberly, and asked him to look at me: "Tell me."

"Tongyuan." Shang Qingyun finally couldn't defeat me.

I knew it.

Along the way, we always see things about the Ninth Family and Tongyuan, all of which are done deliberately by them.

"They don't need to beat around the bush." ​​I said, "If the Tongyuan incident has something to do with my grandfather and father, I will definitely investigate. There is no need for them to set up so many traps."

Shang Qingyun shook his head: "No."

"no?"

"Because I can't say it." Shang Qingyun put his finger between his lips, "The reason why I induced Brother Yu to come here is because you are the only outsider."

"I do not understand."

Shang Qingyun sighed: "Sixth Senior Brother called Brother Yu after his aunt's surname because both he and the master were targeted by Tongyuan. It was also because of this that I haven't seen you for many years."

"But I am their son, so I should..."

"So, Brother Yu was placed next to Old Man Jiang."

"Even this is intentional?!" I was shocked.

Shang Qingyun nodded: "This will not attract Tong Yuan's attention. Now the Sixth Senior Brother and Master are in a disadvantageous situation. They guessed that Tong Yuan is already an undercover agent in the Ninth Family. So they can only let Brother Yu participate in this matter. That's why I was sent here.

"

I smiled bitterly: "They really made a big move. Then let's go to the Sea Eye Dragon Palace first, and then to the Cancong Ancient Tomb. Why do we go to so much trouble? If you need my help, just say no?"

Shang Qingyun sighed: "Because it is inconvenient for them to contact Brother Yu directly. If they tell you directly, you will be targeted by Tongyuan immediately.

Therefore, we must now take the path Tongyuan has taken and catch up with them."

"I understand, what you mean is that what we are investigating is what Tongyuan wants to investigate. So now we are racing with them? Is this the fastest way I can get to the truth about what my grandfather and the others are currently investigating?"

Shang Qingyun nodded.

"If you say that, I can basically accept it. But what on earth are dad and the others going to do that is so dangerous?"

Shang Qingyun shook his head: "I don't know, so I need to check."

I turned off the phone helplessly, but now that everything was clear, I also had the motivation: "Okay, let me, his son, show off my skills. I don't want to be looked down upon by my stupid father."

Qingyun, I have an idea. Although it seems that the clear connection between the Osi Kingdom and the ancient Shu Kingdom is 'silkworm', there is actually one thing that we have overlooked, and that is the three mulberry sacred tree.

When I came to Osi Country, I was wondering why the three mulberry sacred trees, which are so important, seemed so ordinary in Osi Country, and why the mulberry tree was always ignored in the focus of our investigations."

I looked up at the bronze tree: "Seeing this, I probably have an idea. It doesn't matter what the connection is between the two legends of Osi and ancient Shu. It's just that I thought wrongly.

They all hide a piece of information, which is trees.

Look at these people, kneeling before the bronze sacred tree.

In the records of the Osi Kingdom, it is also said that the woman turned into a cocoon and clung to the mulberry tree, kneeling down to the three mulberry trees.

They are all worshiping the tree."

Shang Qingyun nodded when he heard the words, and walked quickly past the kneeling stone statues and came to the bronze tree. As soon as he touched the bronze tree, I heard the tree make a crashing sound, and at the same time something fell on my head.
Chapter completed!
