One person above Qing Huang Ting

Chapter 152 The Palace Temple
Zumu Reti and Hadili are in love, with deep feelings and mutual understanding, and Zumu Reti even developed a derivative skill that he has never seen before.

He has a heart and a heart forever.

Even if they are separated by thousands of miles, a pair of lovers who are always in the same heart can be connected to each other. If it is not because this action is too important, it requires both sides to cooperate tacitly, seize the opportunity, and Zumuletti insists on helping him share the pressure, Only then did Hadili agree to Zumujidi to join the operation and become the liaison officer for both parties.

It was not the first time that Zeluo came to Jingjue City to deliver supplies. He didn’t need anyone to lead the way. monitor.

Even when the people in Jingjue saw such an army entering, some children were curious, some were indifferent, and some idlers were watching the excitement... There were all kinds of gestures, but only there was no fear or fear.

Except because at this time, the unparalleled foreign army of Jingjue is stationed in Jingjue City,

The greatest confidence of the Jingjue people's peace of mind is still within the scope of the ghost cave, the invincible Jingjue Queen.

······
On the other side, under the leadership of Su Da, Zhang Qian and others passed through the main road of Jingjue City. The people in Jingjue City walked out of their houses one after another, watching the lively, pointing at them, talking and laughing, It's like watching a circus from afar.

Hu Xiuwu was vaguely familiar with this scene, as if he had seen it somewhere.

By the way, in Pei Min's memory, when he was young, when Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty just ascended the throne, the national power of Tang Dynasty was strong, and the people of Chang'an also looked at such a sense of superiority, those who were prosperous and magnificent Chang'an. The envoys shocked by Xiongcheng laughed at them for not seeing the world.

These people are ruddy, brightly dressed, and there are all kinds of shops on the streets. You can tell at a glance that the people in this elite city are living a good life.

It is not without reason that the people of Jingjue country love Queen Jingjue, and it is only natural that the people of other countries in the Western Regions resent Queen Jingjue.After all, the heavenly life in Jingjue City was built on their suffering.

Among the bright and beautiful elites, Hu Xiuwu keenly discovered a few people with old clothes and dark and rough skin compared to the elites.

Those were the Yanqi people who came to Jingjue before them.

After seeing Zhang Qian and Hu Xiuwu, these Yanqi people did not communicate with them, quietly left the crowd and disappeared into the crowd.

Hu Xiuwu also turned his head nonchalantly and stopped paying attention to them.

Jingjue City is not big, and the streets are naturally not as long as Chang'an, but it is just a cup of tea, and Suda has already brought them to Jingjue Palace.

The regulations of the Jingjue Palace are completely different from those of the Central Plains Palace, and it can even be said to be the opposite.

Ordinary palaces are built on high places, in the center of the city, to show the emperor's superior status and majesty, but although the Jingjue Palace is also in the center of Jingjue City, its location is the lowest place in the entire city. .

Moreover, the construction style of Jingjue Palace is also very strange. Not only is it completely different from Middle-earth, but even compared with Qiuci Palace, it is quite strange.

The Jingjue Palace as a whole resembles a Mayan pyramid, with seven layers high, and each layer is painted and carved with stone frescoes.

The bottom of the tower is painted with a group of black snakes like tidal water. Above the black snakes, slaves are engraved. On the top are the elite citizens, then the giant-eyed portrait, and the snake-body patron saint. On the top of the tower, Above all things is a huge stone sculpture in the shape of an eyeball.
Although the styles are different, they all have the same exquisite and gorgeous style. The carving level is also a master level. Every stone carving is lifelike, especially the eyeball of the stone carving on the top of the tower. In every corner of the city, you can feel it watching. You, it seems that it has been monitoring the world from eternity, which is a little scary.

Jingjue Palace is more like a palace than a temple, but there is no doubt that this palace can definitely be called a wonder of the world. Although it cannot be compared with the Han Changle Palace in scale, this palace The level of luxury reflected in the details is comparable to that of Changle Palace.

Hu Xiuwu glanced at the big eyeball at the top of the tower and determined that this is the entrance to the ghost cave that Hu Bayi and the others said, and an idea suddenly popped into his mind:
Professor Chen thinks this is the Jingjue altar and temple, but it is actually the Jingjue palace. Do I solve a historical mystery?
The shock on the faces of Zhang Qian and everyone in the embassy at the Jingjue Palace brought Suda a great sense of pride. He introduced to Zhang Qian with a proud tone:
"Everyone, this is the palace where our great Queen Jingjue lives. I didn't know the palace of the great king of the Han kingdom could have such a grandeur."

Tang Yi's father translated it to Zhang Qian, who sneered:
"My big Han's Weiyang Palace is so big that it can cover the four seasons. You can see the newborn sun and the falling moon at the same time in the palace and the palace."

As an envoy, regardless of other abilities, he must be the best one. He must not fall into the trap of words of other countries, and he must also show the magnanimity of a great country in front of other countries without losing the face of his own country.

The connection between the Western Regions and the Great Han has long been blocked by the Huns. Now the Western Regions can only get a little bit of description of the Great Han from the merchants who came to the Western Regions by escaping the Huns by chance.

No matter what they think in their hearts, few people speak ill of their own country in front of people from other countries. It is usually how good they are, how good they are, how strong they are, and how strong they are.

Suda, who had heard other businessmen from Dahan's clearly distorted descriptions of Dahan, actually believed Zhang Qian's words.

He actually believed that a big man could build a palace that covered day and night.

Su Da suddenly became humble, and said to Zhang Qian with yearning: "I really want to see that magnificent palace."

But Zhang Qian couldn't get it right.
Just bragging, how can you take it seriously, do you have some problems with your brain?

After thinking about it, Zhang Qian immediately said in a caring tone to the patient, "Are we going to see Her Majesty the Queen?"

Tang Yi's father rolled his eyes, barely keeping his face expressionless, and translated Zhang Qian's words to Suda.

"Oh, of course, it's my rudeness." Suda suddenly returned to his senses and said apologetically to Zhang Qian.

"Everyone, please come with me."

The moment before entering the palace, Hu Xiuwu glanced at the statue on the outer layer, and suddenly found a situation.

The black snake sculpture he originally created was actually a different snake of real value, a snake tide composed of Jingjian Ahan snakes, but these snakes seemed to be hibernating, crawling motionless at the bottom of the palace.This made him mistake it for a sculpture when he just watched it from a distance.

Ten thousand snakes guard the Jingjue Palace, which is the first layer of protection for Jingjue Palace.

The Jingjue Palace maintains the same style as the outside, worshiping gods and distant people, and the wind of sacrifice is strong. In the center of the hall on the first floor of the palace is a large altar.

There are stone pillars outside the altar, and like the outside, it is divided into multiple layers and the hierarchy is strict.

Fortunately, I don't know if it's not yet time, or because the envoy of the Han is coming, so the surrounding stone pillars are not covered with mummified corpses as Hu Bayi said.

Suda did not lead them up, but went all the way down the stairs, all the way down, Hu Xiuwu could even feel the moist moisture coming from the air.

Is this to meet them in the ghost cave?

Now they are walking in exactly the same way as Hu Bayi once described to the ghost cave. He thought that the platform above the ghost cave was specially made for the coffin of Queen Jingjue.

Hu Bayi and the others also guessed the same. Now it seems that the platform is where the Queen Jingjue held a sacrificial ceremony and met her ministers.

Hey, another historical puzzle I solved.

Hu Xiuwu entertained himself in his heart.

Going down the circular staircase along the stone wall, after stepping over the stone bridge, a strong yin wind blew towards Hu Xiuwu from the deep cave at the other end of the stone bridge.

Roar! !

There was a roar of a strange beast coming from the other end of the cave. There was anger hidden in the roar, which made the entire underground cave tremble. It seemed that there was something, and he was extremely angry at the arrival of Hu Xiuwu.
