[Qin Shi Mingyue] Ghost Valley Wordless Heavenly Book Thirteen Chapters

The 37 guards of the Shang king who survived the [Battle of Muye], including the chief guard Bei Di, who carried out the secret order of the Shang king, entered the underground [library] from the Lutai secret passage under the leadership of the guard chief Bei Di. Take away all the [immemorial silk books] in the underground [library] that record the mysterious and ancient knowledge, and leave from the three secret passages in the underground [library] leading to the road outside the royal capital [Chaoge].

After passing through the last door of the secret passage, after about a cup of tea time, a hole appeared in front of him, and he stepped out of the hole in one step. Among the 37 guards, except for the head of the guard, Bei Di, all the rest were stunned.

……

This is a lake, how big is it?temporarily difficult to calculate;

The lake is vast and surrounded by green hills;

There is no flat land transition between the mountain and the lake, but the mountain and the lake are directly connected.

The slopes are steep, the peaks are sharp, and the mountains connect with each other.

If you stand on the top of one of the mountains and look at the lake, you will find that these [mountains] around the [lake] are connected together, which looks like a [pot] with many gaps on the edge, and the lake is like a [pot] of the water.

However, if you stand at the foot of the mountains surrounding this [lake] and look up, you will understand that the so-called [mountains] surrounding the lake are actually just a few [mountains] of different heights. 【peak】!

This 9000-foot mountain has nine peaks in total, hence the name [Nine Peaks Mountain].Nine peaks surround a huge depression in the center, and this huge depression is filled with water, forming the vast [Shanding Lake].

The remaining 37 guards of King Shang are at the bottom of this [Shanding Lake];

The bottom of the lake is like the bottom of a pot, not as wide as the surface of the lake, but it is not small when you look at it. Dry and flat bluestones are all over the bottom of the lake. In addition to the 37 Shang King guards, there is a [boat] at the bottom of the lake.

From the [bottom of the lake] upwards, the [lake water] is blocked by an "invisible barrier" about sixty feet above the [lake bottom], that is: [the lake water] hangs in the air at a height of about sixty feet above the [lake bottom]!

The 37 King Shang guards stood at the [bottom of the lake] which was isolated from the [lake water]. Looking up at the [lake surface], there were no fish, shrimps and other aquatic species living in the lake. In [Lake Water], light and lake water are intertwined. It is difficult to feel the dreamlike beauty unless you are there.

Beichen, the son of Beichen, looked down at the ground and muttered to himself: "Your Majesty said that the way out is at the bottom of the lake. So it's not under the ground, but it really is the 'bottom of the lake'... This, this is simply..."

Except for the head of the guard, Bei Di, not only Bei Chen, but the rest of the guards, without exception, were all unbelievable. However, they were indeed standing on the [bottom of the lake] ground, with their feet firmly on the ground, but the [lake water] was sixty feet above!

Shocked, Wang Xu looked at the ground, always feeling that something was wrong. He scanned the ground back and forth, and finally squatted down, stretched out his hand to caress the bluestone on the ground, retracted his hand, looked at his palm with a frown, and said to himself: "Why not? ?”

Li Er stood beside Wang Xu and asked, "What's there?"

Wang Xu: "Soil."

Li Er: "Soil?"

Wang Xu: "There are no bugs, no soil, no dust, the ground is too clean."

Hearing what Wang Xu said, Li Er also squatted down and stretched out his hand to wipe the ground: "It is indeed clean, but since the water can hang without falling, it is not surprising that the ground is dust-free, but how is all this done?" ?”

Li Er stood up and looked around.

Wang Xu also stood up: "Not only is the ground clean, but we are also clean."

Bei Chen looked at Wang Xu, didn't react for a while, and asked in confusion, "What's 'we are also dust-free'?"

Wang Xu walked up to Bei Chen, pointed to himself and said to Bei Chen: "Look at me, is it clean? From head to toe, no, from hair to shoe soles, not to mention dust, even blood is gone. You too, Ushit too, and everyone else.”

After Wang Xu said this, everyone looked at each other, some touched the top of their heads, some raised their feet to look at the soles of their shoes, and some looked at their wounds.

Wu Shi stretched his hands into his arms and rubbed them, opened his eyes wide, and shouted in a strange voice: "The layer of sweat and grease on my body is gone?!"

He raised his arms again, lowered his head and sniffed his armpits, raised his head and blinked, and said, "I can't smell the sweat anymore, as if I just took a shower, and I don't have any peculiar smell on my body, no, it seems cleaner than after taking a shower!"

Everyone: "..."

A guard in his 30s turned his head to look at the head of the guard, Bei Ji: "My lord, what is going on here?"

Kita: "Stay here for a longer period of time, the wound will heal faster, and the internal injury will be easier to recuperate than outside."

"Then, can my arms grow again?!"

A guard with a broken right arm looked at Beidou with a hopeful expression and naive thoughts.

Bei Ting can't answer this question... As a sergeant, he is not afraid of death on the battlefield. However, as long as the survivors have a glimmer of hope, who would like to be disabled for life?

"Come with me to rest on the boat."

As Bei Ting said, he walked towards the boat in the middle of the lake, and everyone followed closely behind.

The boat in the middle of the lake:

The length from [bow] to [stern] is about ninety feet,

The [Ship Building] built on the [Ship Deck] is integrated with the [Ship Side], and there are windows on both sides, bow and stern of the [Ship Building];

There is only one floor from [the poop of the ship building] to the [middle section of the ship building], and the height from the top to the [ship deck] is about eighteen feet;

[The first floor of the ship building] has two floors, the second floor is the driving cab, and the height is also eighteen feet. There are stairs directly leading to the first floor of the first floor, and the first floor of the first floor is connected to the poop without partitions, and it runs through from end to end;

The height of the [cabin] between the [deck] and the [inner bottom] is about fifteen feet;

And the distance between the [outer top plate] and the [outer bottom plate] on the top of the second floor of the first floor, that is, the total height of [the whole ship] is about 57 feet;

Wu Shi turned around this [ship], and found that the whole [ship] could not find a seam, and it looked like one piece. Wu Shi couldn't help but reached out and touched the hull, uncertainly: "This ship The boat...isn't it a canoe?"

Bei Ting nodded: "It is indeed a boat carved out of a whole tree."

The guards talked a lot:

"Such a big canoe?!"

"A whole log?"

"How thick is this tree?"

"Probably a tree over a thousand years old."

"More than a thousand years? I can't stop watching."

"This kind of giant tree can only be found in the deep mountains and old forests where people can't reach it. How can it be transported?"

"You are stupid! You can let the water hang in the air, and you want to transport a giant tree from the deep mountain, what is so difficult?"

"Lord Kita, my subordinates don't understand! Who are the people who built this lake bottom and this boat? Why didn't the king order these people to make sharp weapons that can kill more enemies on the battlefield? If so, they won't die then Many brothers, the king will not die, the traitor will not succeed, and the great merchant... I, the great merchant, will not perish! My lord, why is this?!"

"Yeah, why?"

"That's right, Master Kita, where are those people?"

"grown ups?!"

"Is the person who built this place a great witch?"

"Master Kita?!"

Bei Ting: "The ship in front of us was built with many rare materials that are difficult to find and refine in the world, but the most important thing is that the person who built it was not..."

"It's just a ship, no matter how precious the so-called rare materials are,"

A guard was so angry that he interrupted what Bei Yu was saying, and interjected to question:

"The survival of the great merchant, the life of the king, and the lives of so many brothers, are they not as good as a 'broken ship'!?!"

Seeing the enraged anger of his subordinates, the head of the guard, Bei Ji, said nothing, but raised his left arm, raised his left hand to his chest,

I saw that Beichen was wearing a ring finger on his left thumb. The guards all recognized that this finger ring was a gift from the Shang prince. The king of Shang wore it all year round and never left his body. In the end, he took this finger ring in [Lutai] The wrench was handed over to the head of the guard, Kita.

Wearing the left hand of King Shang's fingers, Bei Yi began to pinch a set of one-handed formulas. It was probably the first time to use this set of hand formulas. Because he was not proficient, Bei Yi tried several times but failed.

As Beichen's left hand continued to pinch the formula, the King of Shang finger on his left thumb sometimes glowed brightly and sometimes dimmed. Attracted by this strange phenomenon, no one questioned whether it was a "broken boat"-important for the time being. It is still important for the survival of big businessmen and human life.

After trying over and over a dozen times, Kita finally used the hand formula smoothly and completely,

The zhenqi in the body flowed continuously into Shang Wang's fingers along the invisible lines drawn by [Shoujue],

Shang Wang's finger is getting brighter and brighter. When the brightness reaches a certain level, it tends to be stable. Then it shrinks suddenly, and the light disappears instantly.

Looking at King Shang's thumb, it has changed from pitch black to dark red.

At this moment, wearing the left hand of King Shang's finger, Bei Yi pointed at the ship in front of him, which was called "a broken ship" by a guard,

As far as the thoughts are concerned, the true energy in the body is like a trickle, passing through the meridians in the body and pouring into the dark red finger of King Shang,

A dark red thin [light] shot straight towards the hull.

In the middle section of the [Ship Building] above the [Ship Deck], a piece of [Ship Building Side Plate] that is [-] feet high and [-] feet wide is concave inward, and then opens smoothly to the left, revealing a doorway.

Immediately afterwards, from the lower deck of this portal, a flat plate with the same width as the portal protruded outwards,

When the plate continues to extend out of the [ship] to the limit, the end just falls on the ground,

This flat plate turned out to be a [gangway] connecting the ground and the ship.

The surface of the [gangway] is not smooth, but engraved with concave and convex lines. When people step on the [gangway] to board the ship, these concave and convex lines on the surface of the [gangway] can prevent people from slipping.

Bei Ting withdrew his left hand, looked at his stunned subordinates, and said, "As you can see, the finger wrench given to me by the king, combined with the hand formula I just used, can open this ship. Both are indispensable. Well, follow me on board."

The remaining 37 guards of King Shang all boarded the ship, the [gangway] was retracted into the [deck], and the [ship door] was closed.

Kita opened the [portholes] on the ship one by one with his own hands.Through the [porthole], Kitagi looked up at the dark clouds gathering in the sky above the [lake surface], and they were getting thicker and thicker. A strong uneasiness grew deep in Kitagi's heart.

The author has something to say: Note:

1. Pull finger: It was called [韘 (sound: she, xie, four tones)] in ancient times, but the modern name [pull finger] is used in this article. This thing is used to protect the fingers when archery is used in ancient times.

韘 (pull finger) appeared in the Shang Dynasty.

The traditional Chinese method of snapping the string and opening the bow is different from the European way of drawing the string with the index finger and middle finger, but with the thumb wearing the ji (pull finger) to draw the bowstring.

2. Shichen (the landlord’s personal summary version...please testify if there are any mistakes):

There are twelve hours in a day【= modern 24 hours】

There are eight quarters in one hour【= modern 120 minutes = modern 2 hours】

There are three cups of tea for a moment【≈Modern 15 minutes】

A cup of tea is worth five points【≈5 minutes in modern times】

There are six fingers in one point【≈ 60 seconds in modern times = 1 minute in modern times】

There are ten moments when you flick your fingers【≈10 seconds in modern times】

A moment is a thought【≈1 second in modern times】

One thought is two moments [≈ modern 1 second (or shorter)]

A moment [≈0.5 seconds (or less) in modern times, it is "almost" difficult for human eyes to see what happened in a moment. 】
