Chapter 645 The Truth of History
When everyone's attention was focused on the coffin, Ji Changsheng had already quickly browsed the contents of the mural and understood the whole story.
"The truth of the matter is not so beautiful, maybe I will disappoint you."
Then, he slowly told the story.
It turned out that the reason why the Queen of Jingjue was famous in the Western Regions was not because of her beauty, but because of her terrible ghost eyes!
What this mysterious queen looked like, perhaps no one had ever seen it, and her portrait should have been drawn by the painter based on imagination.
The title of the most beautiful woman in the Western Regions was just a compliment and beautification of her, or to put it more bluntly, it was flattery.
The fat man couldn't help asking when he heard this.
"Why do the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions flatter her together? What benefits can they get?"
Ji Changsheng smiled slightly, and was not angry at the fat man's rude interruption, but just replied softly.
"Of course there are benefits."
In fact, although the size of Jingjue is small, its influence in the Western Regions is the first among the thirty-six countries!
The reason why this small country with a population of less than 5,000 people can shock the Western Regions is because of the ghost eyes of the Queen of Jingjue.
Her eyes can turn ordinary things into treasures, which is equivalent to having endless wealth. This ability alone makes other countries salivate.
However, money alone is not enough, and there must be strong military force to protect the treasure.
This is the second ability of the ghost eye, making people disappear out of thin air!
No matter how powerful the army is, how powerful the master is, she will evaporate out of thin air with a glance. This terrifying ability is more deterrent than thousands of troops!
It is with these two abilities of the ghost eye that the Queen of Jingjue makes the small Jingjue country stand proudly at the top of the Western Regions!
In fact, except for this Prince Gu Mo, all other Western Regions countries have thrown olive branches to the Queen of Jingjue. Some want to form an alliance, and some want to marry. As long as they can have a good relationship with the Queen of Jingjue, they can dominate the Western Regions!
And this Prince Gu Mo is not as infatuated as the stele says.
The stele was made by his order, of course, he would beautify himself and shape him into the image of a good man with an infatuated seed.
The real fact is that Prince Gu Mo, as the heir to the throne, was caught in the power struggle within the royal family and was defeated by several brothers. He had to flee his country.
In order to regain his throne, he chose to go all out and took out all his family assets to come to Jingjue Kingdom, hoping to get the help of the Queen of Jingjue.
Prince Gu Mo's plan was actually to form an alliance with the Queen of Jingjue, not to ask for marriage. Asking for marriage was just a nice thing to say.
Fatty had said before that the ability of the ghost eye was too terrible. No man dared to marry the Queen of Jingjue, not Prince Gu Mo.
But for some reason, the Queen of Jingjue rejected his request. Maybe she saw that he had lost power and didn't want to cause trouble for herself.
In short, after Prince Gu Mo failed to ask for help, he never returned to his homeland. From then on, he lived in Jingjue Kingdom and spent his miserable life in depression.
As for this joint burial tomb, there was also a coffin prepared for the Queen of Jingjue, which was just a means for him to beautify himself.
The above are not Ji Changsheng's blind guesses, but the contents engraved on the murals.
After listening to the story, the fat man asked in confusion.
"Mr. Ji, why did he paint the truth on the mural? Isn't this exposed?"
Ji Changsheng smiled faintly and said.
"For the tomb owner, the underground palace is the final destination of his life, which is equivalent to his eternal home."
"In your own home, of course there is nothing to worry about, and there is no need to hide it."
The fat man suddenly realized it, looked at the male corpse in the coffin, and said with regret.
"It turns out to be a poor ghost. I, Fatty, have offended you just now. Please forgive me."
He said this, but his hands did not stop at all. He turned the two coffins upside down and packed two large bags of valuables, without leaving anything behind.
Shirley Yang became interested in the leaf.
"Mr. Ji, why do you put a leaf of corpse-scented konjac in the coffin prepared for the Queen of Jingjue?"
Ji Changsheng thought about it and answered.
"Maybe the Queen of Jingjue felt sorry for him, so she sent this leaf to protect the underground palace and deal with tomb robbers."
Just one leaf can secrete hallucinogenic poisonous gas, and it has not deteriorated for thousands of years. You can imagine how toxic this corpse-scented konjac is!
After hearing this, everyone sighed.
No one had ever thought that such a secret historical truth was hidden in this ancient tomb.
The truth is often not as beautiful and moving as the legend, but cold and ruthless.
After coming out of the ancient tomb, the two fat men were very proud, carrying two big bags and humming a little song all the way.
Before reaching the ancient city of Jingjue, they had already made a fruitful harvest. This trip was worthwhile for them.
For Ji Changsheng, this exploration of the ancient tomb also yielded some gains.
There is a lot of information about the Queen of Jingjue on the murals. In addition to a detailed description of the power of the ghost eye, it also reveals an important clue.
The ruins of the ancient Jingjue Kingdom are located in the center of the vast desert, but thousands of years ago it was an oasis full of vitality. The Silk Road passed through this ancient city.
But strangely, this city seems to be secretly protected by some mysterious power.
It is said that only those who have obtained permission from the Queen of Jingjue can reach Jingjue City. If anyone breaks in without permission, he will get lost in the vast grassland and will never find the location of the ancient city!
According to Prince Gu Mo's description, Queen Jingjue has the ability to control demons. She has two powerful black demons under her command, who silently guard the ancient city of Jingjue and keep out uninvited guests.
As for what these two devils are, there is no detailed description on the mural. Maybe this is a secret of Jingjue Kingdom, and Prince Gumo doesn't know either.
Ji Changsheng didn't care about this. Having read the original work, he easily guessed the identities of these two devils.
After returning to the camp, everyone divided into groups to keep vigil, and there was no talking all night.
Early the next morning, after breakfast, the team packed up and headed towards the ancient city of Jingjue.
According to their footsteps, they will arrive at noon.
After walking smoothly for five hours, at one o'clock in the afternoon, something different finally appeared in people's field of vision.
Shirley Yang raised her hand excitedly and shouted.
"Found it!"
Everyone looked towards the sky and saw a black mountain range appearing at the end of thousands of miles of yellow sand.
If you look carefully with a telescope, you will see that the mountain is made of black rock, more than a hundred meters high, but stretches for dozens of miles.
Shirley Yang suppressed her excitement and said.
"According to the records in the diary, this black mountain range is circular, and the ancient city of Jingjue is in the very center of the circle!"
