Chapter 212: Snake Ghost Town · Wen Jin's Notes

Seeing this line of words, I took a deep breath, and the horror in my heart was beyond description.
The content of this text is not what surprised me the most. To be honest, the moment I saw the note, I thought I might see such content. It was the signature that suffocated me in an instant.
"Chen Wenjin!"
Oh, I really did n’t think that she would leave this thing. So, it ’s her who sent me the video tape and led me here.
This is really a peak circulation, and it is confusing. Although the third uncle did not say anything about her, in my conception, she must have died somewhere. Why did it suddenly appear at this time, and it brought me here?
And this short paragraph contains too much information, what three people? Which three are they? What is it Who are we referring to, is it the Xisha group? What research? What secret?
Countless thoughts flashed through my head, but I couldn't think of one at a time. When I settled down, I immediately turned over the notes and looked back.
This is a very thick note. There are twenty-six or seven pages full of words, all densely written, very neatly written, and there are many pictures, it seems to be a working note.
I placed the lighter on the edge of the drawer that I pulled out, and then sat on the floor by myself, and immediately looked at it calmly.
Just opened the first page, the page after the title page, I was shocked immediately, I saw a strange picture on it, the painting was very fine.
This painting is composed of only seven lines, six curved lines and an irregular circle. I just recalled it a little bit, and immediately found out that this is the figure that the uncle described to me and translated from the Warring States silk book.
I was surprised, it seems that Wen Jin they are quite powerful, it is very difficult to get this graphic, so, she has also been interested in this graphic.
However, unlike the sketch that Sanshu gave me, this time there was a callout on the painting, and I was sweating coldly when I saw it. I saw a black dot on each of the six curves. It seemed that the uncle and I said that the six stars selected by the alignment of the astrolabe and the straight line, but on four of the black dots, I saw A few small letters arrived.
From top to bottom, it is:
Changbai MountainGenting Temple
Guazi TempleSeven Star Lu Palace
Reclining Buddha Ridge-Tianguan Temple Stupa
Shatou Reef ─ Shipwreck Tomb
I watched and breathed cold air. After a few seconds of confusion in my heart, I felt like a divine initiation, and immediately understood what I saw.
Dizzy, too dizzy, is the curve of this graph turned out to be the trend of each mountain range in the great dragon vein of Wang Zanghaiding?
Looking carefully at the curve, it turned out to be the case. Because I was n’t looking on the map, these six lines could n’t remind me of this at all. I just felt like the meridians of the leaves or the distribution map of the river. However, when I look at it now, I can see immediately It is a "dragon". The six lines are the dragon head, dragon tail and dragon limbs! Each line is a mountain, and the points on the line are the eyes of the mountain.
Well, this is not what the star chart Judeka said!
I was cold all at once, realizing what was going on. I rely on, or Judeka is misleading, or the old goblin cheated the third uncle!
Look at the two lines without writing. I immediately noticed that there were black dots on it, but there were question marks on the sides. Obviously, these should also be the dragon veins that Dafeng Shui belongs to, but the situation of the longan above is not clear.
This sudden shock almost made me a little overwhelmed. I really did not expect that this kind of subversion would happen when I opened the notebook. I immediately closed the note and took a deep breath, but my hand was still shaking, remembering the sentence on the title page: the content inside involved some huge secrets. I said you do n’t have to stimulate me on the first page!
However, this shock was quickly replaced by ecstasy. I clapped my teeth and patted my chest. After removing the suffocation, I opened the note again.
Look at the picture carefully. This time, I saw a more critical point.
I saw a space outside the six lines, surrounded by six curved lines, and inside the circle, there was also a black dot. This black dot is not on any line, but is independent and lonely in the middle of the whole figure.
And beside this black dot, there is also a line of small characters: Chaidamu-Tamutu.
I can't understand this, but there are several deep lines drawn under this line of small characters, and there are two or three question marks. Obviously, this point is the most important in this picture. Moreover, when drawing pictures, Wen Jin had any questions, so he drew these question marks while thinking.
Judging from the experience on the side, this should also represent a place, Qaidam? Tamutuo? Is it also an ancient tomb? I said in my heart, why is this outside the line?
All of a sudden, I suddenly realized that Wen Jin knew much more than us. It seems that this note can let me know a lot of questions. Thinking, I immediately turned the notebook over and started to read the content behind.
The following content is a mixture of text and pictures. The handwriting above is very neat and well-organized. However, the font is very small and looks very difficult under the light of the lighter.
I settled down, gathered my spirits, and watched it carefully. While watching it, I became more and more confused and disappointed. After reading it, my doubts and disappointments reached their climax. I stayed there, the feeling in my heart is hard to describe.
The content of the entire note can be divided into three parts, more than one hundred thousand words, all are diary-like working records, the recorded content is very cumbersome, but according to the content recorded in it, it can be divided into three section.
The first part was recorded on April 2, 1990-March 6, 1991. I cannot write down the entire note here. I can only abbreviate it and select the most critical chapter. See it clearly. The content of the first part is as follows:
April 2nd, 1990
We numbered most of the porcelain in the seabed tombs, copied almost all the porcelain, and compared the murals, hoping to find Wang Zanghai's life trajectory. Through this comparison, we did find some laws. What is recorded in the mural is his life experience, and the content in the porcelain painting is the process of his architectural engineering. This can be proved from the several series we have compiled. For example, entering the East Xia Kingdom-building the Yunding Tiangong, and being awarded by Zhu Yuanzhang-designing the Ming Palace, all have been found, and according to the order of the tombs, they can be very It is easy to distinguish the sequence of these times, and one-to-one correspondence.
It is inferred in this way that these murals are all recording the merits of Wang Zanghai's distinguished feng shui, and the contents recorded are related to his works. Those that are more important to others, such as marriage and hunting, There is no record. I call this "Wang's Theory of Relativity."
September 6, 1990
Today, "Wang's Theory of Relativity" encountered a problem. In Wang Zanghai's final mural, we found such a content:
(The following is a sketch, about the copy of the mural. When I saw this, I remembered the things similar to the children's sketches I saw when I turned the table. It turned out to be the mural they copied.
The content of the sketch is difficult to describe, because the painting is very bad, I can only see that it seems to be a scene of a noble and noble, farewell to another person, the background is a large palace gate, and the "camels" are neatly arranged around Animals like horses, of course, are painted exactly like dogs and mice. I am familiar with ancient landscape paintings and beast paintings. I have been rigorously trained in this area, so I can guess from the brush strokes and shapes that these strange-shaped animals should actually be horses or camels. Behind the palace gates, the waiters were in groups and lined up in a ceremonial line, showing that the picture-in-picture is a rather vast scene.
After, there are still two or three pages of paintings. I am not interested, so I jumped over and looked directly at the content behind. )
These murals should be things after Wang Canghai was sixty-eight years old. At that time, he had completed his last project. The content of this mural probably said that he accepted the emperor's order and set off to a place similar to Such activities in other countries. The composition of this mural is obviously imitating those Tang Dynasty murals from the west to the Western Regions of Tang Xuanzhuang. It is very peculiar. However, we checked all the porcelain, but we never found any porcelain paintings that could be compared to this.
Some people say that this may be the last experience. He does not have any architectural works. However, some people insist that there is no such exception for people like Wang Zanghai. There is no correspondence with porcelain paintings, there may be any special meaning or reason, perhaps, his work was carved in other places.
Indeed, after continuing to study, it was found that Wang Canghai was very mysterious in the last few years, and there was no historical data left at all. His life can be said to be blank for the last period.
Where was he in the past few years, what did he do? this is a big problem.
December 6, 1990
In the past few months, we have been investigating Wang Zanghai's whereabouts in the last few years, and finally have clues. We found that after the final project, Wang Zanghai accompanied the emperor to have a mountain sacrifice in Changbai Mountain, and since then there has been no written record.
Changbai Mountain, did you say he went into the mountain? We are very skeptical.
December 7, 1990
There is no way to check it here. We turned around and started from the emperor's side. In Mingzhi, we have detailed records of travels and ceremonies. We wanted to find the ceremonies depicted on the wall paintings of Wang Zanghai or his embassy. National record.
The results are very surprising. We found that there were a total of seven ceremonies in the two years before the emperor's death, six of which were normal. However, one time was very strange. The record was very simple and there were no side notes:
"In the twenty-ninth year of Hongwu, forty-six guards, twelve scholars, one hundred and twenty-six horses, ten pearls, thirty pounds of gold, etc., made Tamutuo."
Dadian and the embassy, ​​these are the only two records with complete conditions. However, this record does not record the officials of the embassy at the time, but the most strange thing is, where is Tamutuo?
Is a country? There are no records in the official history, but it is very likely that there are countless small countries in the periphery of the Ming Dynasty, Southeast Asia and the Western Region. Perhaps this is one of the small countries. However, it is a bit strange that Wang Zanghai went to make envoys with a small country. His age is not suitable for this kind of long journey.
February 11, 1991
The investigation continued, during which we held two discussions.
(The middle is ten pages of nonsense, all are discussions and guesses, but all of them are confirmed later, so they have been deleted.)
Because Ming history experienced a catastrophe in the Qing dynasty, this time it was very difficult to investigate, and there was no result for a long time. Later, we changed the angle of investigation to solve a problem. We compared what the envoy "Tamuo Tuo" carried, and found that the types of gifts indicated that this should be a country in the Western Regions, and the number of gifts as gifts seemed very small. However, there are so many horses. It looks like a caravan, not an envoy team.
March 6, 1991
Has no clues at all, and no breakthrough can be found. The research is stagnant and everyone is in a bad mood.
This is the first paragraph. Obviously, there should be some content in front of this paragraph, but there is no trace of the torn page in front. It seems that this should not be a separate note. This is a series of notes. One.
The content described in the first paragraph is that they are doing research on Wang Zanghai, discovering "Tamu Tuo", then studying "Tamu Tuo", and finally studying such a process of stagnation. Many things can be seen in this paragraph. They are studying the frescoes and porcelain in the seabed tombs. Moreover, they seem to study very orthodox and systems, which is a classic archaeological process. It is boring, but it is the main method of daily research for archaeologists. Archaeology means excavation-repair-examination). But when the three uncles went there, it was impossible for them to have such a condition. The tomb of Wang Zanghai was so large. How long would it take for these few people to work to record all the things in the tomb? So when did they do this job?
This is a big clue, but I did n’t have time to think about it, so I continued to look down. At that time, I thought that this process would continue. However, after the section on March 6, 1991, there was a phenomenon that puzzled me.
After this paragraph, there are about six pages of content, all of which are statements of collecting data. This is skipped. After turning over all the time, the work diary in the next section jumped to January 19, 1993.
Then, look at the content recorded in it, and you will find that it is quite different from the previous one. The content of this paragraph is from January 19, 1993 to February 8, 1995. The time span is longer than the previous paragraph. However, there are not many things that can be recorded. The contents are as follows:
On January 19, 1993, after the last discussion, Wang Zanghai's things became clear. It seems that he went to Tamu Tuo, which is indeed related to the emperor's sacrifice to Changbai Mountain. He should return to Yunding Tiangong, and then set off for Tamu Tuo. This Tamutuo must be related to the situation in Changbai Mountain.
On April 18, 1993, we sorted out three routes to Yunding Tiangong from the mural, and we decided to go to Changbai Mountain to find out.
On May 30, 1993, entering Changbai Mountain, the weather was very bad.
(After that, there are about a dozen pages of travel records like adventure novels. It is similar to what we entered Genting. Until after entering.)
On June 15, 1993, they lost contact with them, and the two of us moved on.
On June 17, 1993, we reached the bottom of the Tiangong, the situation was very bad, other people might be fierce, and we did not have time to hesitate, we decided to enter the bronze gate to see what was inside .
June 18, 1993, it seems that I saw the ultimate!
(After arriving here, it was interrupted. There is no content. The next diary is the last paragraph. Apparently she has not recorded anything for nearly a year and a half.)
The last record is that on February 8, 1995, we began to plan to find Tamutuo. What is going on, I must make sure.
This is the second part. There are about thirty pages of content here. It is very obvious that there are several years of vacancy between the first part and the second part. In this second part, they directly started the journey of Genting Heavenly Palace. I saw a question in my heart that was clear. It seems that the people who died in the golden heap in Genting Heavenly Palace should be their group. And looking at what they carry, what Wen Jin said here should be the group of people in Xisha.
In this way, they seem to have no other special embarrassment, and they seem to live very comfortably? But these were secondary, and what shocked me the most was that obviously Wen Jin also found the bronze door, and she also went in.
"I saw the ultimate!" When I saw this, I was cold sweating. What did I mean by this, what does this ultimate represent?
Looking at the recorded time, after she entered, there was almost no diary for a year and a half, which was inconsistent with her character. I felt that she was very likely to see something in the bronze door, so that she was so shocked that she had no time to think about any notes.
Throughout the second part, the biggest feeling I got was that the Tamu Tuo should have a great relationship with the bronze gate. After Wen Jin entered the bronze gate, the idea of ​​looking for this "Tamu Tuo" came up.
After that, it is the third part, which is very long, but the time span is very short, from February 8th, 1995 to June 8th, 1995, of which only one period is worth mentioning. .
February 8, 1995
According to the dragon vein map, we can already determine the location of Tamutuo. We are going to conduct an exploration. We hope that in this exploration, we can find the answers to the series of puzzles. To be honest, I really didn't expect that there are so many things behind this. If what I saw in the bronze door is true, then this whole thing is terrible.
After that, it was all they went to the content called "Tamu Tuo". Looking at the description above, this "Tamu Tuo" should be an oasis in the Gobi. Wen Jin followed a camel team in 1995 At the beginning of the year, he set off from Dunhuang and went deep into the Qaidam Basin for this journey.
They were led into the Gobi by a female guide named Lord Doma, and then at a rock mountain, they broke up with her and entered this place called "Tamuo Tuo". It seemed very dangerous in that oasis. Many people died along the way. I also saw many dangerous signs on the road map of the notes. At last they reached Tamutuo, but she had a disagreement with another person, and finally she returned without moving on.
I watched it very quickly, and I didn't look closely. After these contents, it was blank and there was no content. This part is about thirty pages, very detailed, with a lot of road maps and descriptions of equipment defects, weather and the like.
The entire note did not write how they got the information or how to investigate, nor did they mention anything about the disappearance of Xisha, nor did they mention anything about this nursing home. All the information in it is related to this "Tamuo Tuo". Almost half of the space is about the analysis of the things left behind by Wang Zanghai's iron noodles, and I found a link to "Tamu Tuo". Moreover, I feel very concerned about these three paragraphs, there are obvious breaks in the middle, it seems that the notes are bound or rewritten by someone.
I pulled up the gap between the pages and found no trace of rebinding and tearing the pages. This is a complete note. That is to say, this note may be a duplicate copy of Wenjin. She seems to have picked the contents of Tamutuo in several notes, copied them down, and gathered them together in one note.
Why did she do this? This is another incredible thing. Why are these people doing things so mysteriously? Is there something else in the notes that she does not want others to know?
Moreover, looking at this note, it was obvious that I wanted to let me know that the place of "Tamu Tuo" was very important, and it seemed that I wanted to go to that place.
There are so many doubts in my heart, and I can't figure out the clue at once. I rubbed my temples, turned the note to the beginning, and prepared to look carefully from the beginning to see if I could get some clues if I carefully thought out. However, by this time, the lighter in front of him had dimmed. The flames had shrunk and the light was quite dim.
I remembered that the lighter has been used for quite a long time, and may soon be cut off, so I wanted to ignite those newspapers and drawers to make a bonfire pile, so that the lighter would not be able to fight for a while. So he stood up with a lighter and stretched his bones.
At this time, I felt something was amiss. There seemed to be something different here. I simply raised the lighter and wanted to see if it was an illusion. It ’s okay if I do n’t look at it. I barely scared me to death. I saw the person across the table. I do n’t know when a
person
appeared. This person was sitting on the chair I was sitting on, looking at the mirror. Comb your hair.
