Chapter 1405 I’ve Seen This Person

"Why do you say that?" Ji Ning asked with some confusion.

Li Jia frowned and said: "In the final analysis, this tomb was set up for the owner of the tomb. No matter what scale it is built, it is the permanent residence of this person. Therefore, everything in it should be related to the owner of the tomb. The construction of the tomb is certainly related to him, but is this sacrifice—"

At this point, he did not continue, but shook his head slightly.

Black Peony continued: "The tomb exists to bury the owner of the tomb, and it also serves the owner of the tomb. Most of the relief murals are related to the owner of the tomb, such as his life, and there will be nothing related to him. Completely irrelevant.”

Li Jia had said this before, and Black Peony emphasized it again. Everyone nodded and motioned for her to continue.

Black Peony added: "Just like what the master said, if this is the entire process of building the tomb, including the final burial and burial process, it would be a complete process. But as of this sacrifice, it is very strange. Look, It seems that this sacrifice is the highlight."

"What if the person who presides over the sacrifice is the owner of the tomb? You also said before that according to your family's ancestral precepts, this is a monk's tomb, so it makes sense to connect the two."

Rong Guocheng brought up the matter again.

Black Peony bit her lip and remained silent, not continuing.

According to this explanation, the sacrifice can indeed be connected with the owner of the tomb, and it is also the most reasonable explanation at present. However, for some reason, Black Peony still feels that something is not right in her heart.

But at this moment, she was asked to tell her what was wrong. For a moment, she couldn't explain clearly.

Seeing her like this, Shangguan knew what she seemed to be thinking and seemed to be conflicted in her heart, so he said, "Is it possible that there is something else we haven't discovered yet?"

Black Peony shook her head gently and said: "For the moment, I can't say, but I always feel that this matter is not that simple."

Lin Mengjia smiled and said: "Since we can't figure it out, we don't have to think about it in a hurry. Anyway, according to the relief, this tomb is quite big. The distance we have traveled is relatively small." , maybe if we continue walking down, we can see the same reliefs on both sides of other passages, and there is a continuation of this incident on them."

Rong Guocheng said with some agreement on his face: "What Madam said makes sense. The passages in the previous cross-section diagram are quite complicated. We have only walked through two of them, which is far from it. What."

Xie Laohu also nodded and said: "Yes, if you want to know more, let's go down and have a look."

After listening to their words, everyone nodded. At this time, they really didn't have any other options.

Moreover, if they really relied on the map of the mountain, they did still have quite a few passages that they had not walked through, and there was also a bottomless pit. They didn't know how to get close to it and figure out what was going on.

But while everyone was discussing the relief, Zixuan, who was the first to bring up the topic, remained silent at the moment.

Normally, Zixuan talks the most. When others don't speak, she can talk for a long time by herself, making everyone look helpless.

But at this moment, everyone was discussing in full swing, everyone expressed their opinions and put forward different ideas, but Zixuan remained quite silent and did not speak, which was quite surprising.

Especially Xue Rui, who has always been more concerned about Zixuan's opinion and whether he would ask her questions. Now that he saw Zixuan just standing aside silently, he was inevitably a little curious.

Xue Rui quickly approached Zixuan and said, "Miss Zixuan, what are you looking at?"

Just when Xue Rui asked this question, he had already seen that Zixuan was standing in front of the relief portrait, looking at it intently, her brows slightly wrinkled, looking thoughtful.

It seemed that this relief made her think of something, but she was not sure, so she never said it.

Seeing this, Xue Rui also focused his gaze on it and observed it carefully, but he didn't see any clues.

The lines and concavities of this portrait are also relatively simple, but compared to the other simple drawings, the character's features are relatively clearly outlined, and you can also see the expression on the face and the clothing features on the body.

It's just that because the stone wall is completely dark and there is no light in this passage, even if everyone takes the elixir, they still need to watch carefully.

On this relief, you can tell at a glance that it is an old man who is about fifty or sixty years old. When you look closely, you can see that he has a very elegant appearance, and you can even see a slight smile on the corner of his mouth. , there is also a bit of smile in his eyes.

It is quite difficult to use such a simple technique to express the character's emotions in a subtle way.

Seeing that Zixuan had been looking at the relief of the old man but not speaking, Xue Rui showed a very suspicious look and couldn't help but ask again: "Miss Zixuan, the figure above looks different from some ancient paintings. There seems to be no difference between the portraits painted in them. They have immortal demeanor and strong bones, and the posture of an immortal with crane hair and childish face. Is there anything wrong with you after looking at them for so long?"

Xue Rui originally thought that Zixuan cared so much about this relief because she saw something wrong with it, such as some kind of spell, but she felt that there was nothing unusual about the character itself.

Unexpectedly, Zixuan pursed her lips slightly and said softly: "I have seen this person before."

"Have you seen it? This is not possible, is it? This, this is an ancient tomb from the pre-Qin period. The people carved in this place were at least thousands of years ago."

A look of surprise immediately flashed across Xue Rui's face, but then she suddenly became enlightened and said hurriedly: "Miss Zixuan, do you mean that this person has lived until now?"

If he had put it before, Xue Rui would have thought that it was a fantasy that a person had lived from the pre-Qin period to the present for thousands of years, and he would never believe it.

But in the past few days, following Tang Feng, he had seen a lot of things that he had never seen before, which was an eye-opener. Now, even if someone told him that someone had lived for tens of thousands of years, he could accept it.

Therefore, after a brief surprise, he quickly regained his composure.

After hearing what Zixuan said, Tang Feng also turned his attention to the relief and looked at the old man on it.
