Because Lao Jiang has more important things to do, the next two patients, Yin Ling'er and I, can only hug each other to keep warm.
Banban can't live without me. He follows me wherever I go. He has become my little tail!
I basically spent every day in Qilin's archives, letting Yin Ling'er read to me next to me, while my companion sat upright beside me.
I don’t know if he, a zombie from the Shang Dynasty, can understand it?
In fact, after I came back from Wawu Mountain, several big mysteries lingered in my mind. What exactly was the heaven-reaching sacred tree that appeared in the silkworm mural at that time?
Also, is the three-eyed monster I saw really the ancestor Wen Tao?
He's not dead?
And why do you have to remind me that witches can be destroyed with mirrors? How did he know.
I even think that what we suspected before is that apart from Qilin, that organization, and Hei Miao, there is a mysterious force that is involved in Sanxingdui... That mysterious force is probably Wen Tao! Even the golden mask was left to me by him.
But why would he do this?
Somewhere in the dark, I felt a sense of awakening for the first time.
All the secrets, even the curse on me, are closely related to the one word Lao Jiang said: Jedi Heavenly Power!
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but mutter to myself the word "西".
At this moment, Lao Xia, who was taking a nap in the archives room while listening to the Huangmei Opera on the radio, suddenly raised his head in a daze: "Li Jinglan, what are you mumbling about?"
Suddenly I had an idea.
Since I couldn't find what I wanted in the archives, why didn't I ask Lao Xia Tou first?
He has been in charge of the archives for decades, and he probably even knows which page the secret is on.
So I got straight to the point: "Old Xia Tou, have you ever heard of Jedi Heavenly Power?"
Lao Xia Tou's answer surprised me, and at the same time I felt excited. Of course he had to turn off the radio: "Of course I know."
After my questioning, I realized that the so-called "Jedi Tiantong" was a huge game between humans and gods that took place in ancient times.
Old Xia Tou told us: "The king who dominated the land of China and Xia at that time was called Zhuanxu. He was the grandson of Emperor Xuanyuan. He also initiated several wars and completely unified several major tribes."
"At that time, divine power was supreme. Not only did the common people in every household have to believe in God, but even Zhuanxu, the human king, had to obey God's orders..."
"And every time God issues an order, he relies on a sacred tree that leads to the sky."
"Humans and gods can communicate with each other with the help of the sacred tree, but the demons on the sacred tree will also come down at a certain time every year to eat people, suck blood, and seize offerings... This time period is called the 'catastrophe'! "
The tribesmen were harmed by demons, so they prayed to God to destroy the demons.
God, however, believes that birth, old age, sickness and death are the fate of mankind, and the demons on the other side of the divine tree cannot be controlled by themselves.
But ordinary people can't defeat the demon at all, they can only wait to die.
But those high-altitude gods watched all this with helpless eyes, and still had the nerve to accept the grain tributes that sentient beings dedicated their blood and sweat to them with a smile.
Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs!
Zhuanxu, the king of men, was angry.
He felt that the Chinese people were supreme and they could have faith, but if the God of their faith abandoned them, they would no longer need God.
So Emperor Zhuanxu launched a movement that shocked the past and the present!
First, he cut down the sacred tree that allowed humans and gods to communicate with each other, so that even though they could no longer communicate with gods, those demons could not follow the sacred tree to cause harm to the world.
Next, he began to form an alliance with warriors from all over China and Xia, and worked together to completely kill the demons that were breeding everywhere.
He also taught the people how to use the calendar and understand the weather, so that they could have good weather.
From then on, there was no communication between humans and gods, and demons and demons were extinct forever.
"Emperor Zhuanxu was the first person in the history of China to consolidate imperial power, and the movement he initiated is what you asked me just now...Jedi Tiantong!"
After saying that, Lao Xia Tou added: "By the way, it's worth mentioning that beautiful myths like Nuwa patching up the sky and Gong Gong's head hitting Buzhou Mountain all happened before Jedi Tiantong. Jedi Tiantong After that, there will be no more myths in China.”
Lao Xia Tou's words caused a layer of cold sweat to break out all over my back, because the amount of information he said was so great!
It turns out that the giant tree reaching the sky in the murals of the ancient Shu Kingdom really existed, and the so-called Jedi Heaven Tong was to cut down the sacred tree that connected humans and gods.
So the question is, how does Cancong know about the sacred tree that leads to the sky? How did you communicate with the sacred tree?
Who is he?
Also, what does Jedi Tiantong have to do with me?
Waves of chills shot up from the soles of my feet to the sky, and suddenly I remembered Warner's motive for coming to China.
I remember that he lost so much financial and material resources and sacrificed hundreds of subordinates in Dunhuang, but in the end he didn't even look at the treasures in the pagoda.
He didn't even covet Monk Le's colorful glazed relic.
It seems that he just wanted to complete the mission of the Tulip family, find a certain secret, and find a group of people in this world who are different from us...
When he learned that Le Monk was one of those people, he left with a smile.
Finally, I vaguely heard that Nuwa Xiaoxiao and Le Monk both came from a place called the Circle.
So, did Cancong also come out of that 'circle'?
As I was thinking about it, suddenly, a more terrifying thought came into my mind.
I shuddered, subconsciously grabbed Lao Xia Tou's hand, and asked solemnly: "Then do you know what a 'circle' is?"
Lao Xiatou obviously knew, because I heard his breathing stop for a moment, and his tone when he answered me even had a hint of panic: "Me? I... don't know."
Lao Xia shook off my hand and stood up: "I'm so sleepy. I'm going to bed. I'll leave you with the key to the archives."
Then, he left as if running away.
"Brother Jinglan, there is something wrong with Lao Xia Tou."
Sure enough, Yin Ling'er saw it immediately.
Banban also nodded vigorously, seeming to agree with Yin Ling'er's words.
I smiled slightly, touched her head based on my feeling, and said, "Anyway, I've got the answer I wanted, so we'd better not embarrass him."
"He has no right to tell me a secret of this level. I believe someone will answer it for me in person in the near future."
Yin Ling'er became even more curious now: "Someone can answer it? Who?"
I didn't answer, but stretched out an index finger with my right hand and pointed to the top of my head. That was the location of the west tower of Qilin, where the boss of Qilin was.
At this time, Banban whined in displeasure and put his head into my hand. It turned out that he was jealous of Yin Ling'er and was annoyed that I had touched Yin Ling'er instead of him.
"Okay, okay, touch them all, touch them all!" I smiled helplessly.
