Entertainment Secrets: Playing the role of Qilin, Mimi loves it so much
Chapter 284: Pearl and Jade, Different Interpretations
Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi couldn't wait to hear Ye Bai's interpretation. "Tell me, what stories do these murals tell?"
Ye Bai pointed to a mural. "This mural depicts an ancient kingdom. This kingdom possessed great power and mysterious treasures. However, this kingdom was destroyed by a disaster."
"Before his death, the king hid his treasure in a mysterious place and left behind a map."
Meng Ziyi asked curiously, "Is this mysterious place the ancient tomb we are in now?"
Ye Bai nodded: "It's very likely. The map on the crystal ball is the map left by the king. As long as we can decipher the symbols on the map, we can find the treasure."
Yang Mi said excitedly: "Then let's quickly interpret the map!"
Ye Bai continued, "From the perspective of Feng Shui, these symbols on the map may represent different elements and directions. We need to interpret them in conjunction with the surrounding environment and aura."
The three began to carefully study the symbols on the map and analyze them in combination with the surrounding environment. After a period of effort, they finally deciphered some key information.
"I understand. This symbol represents water, which may mean that we have to find a place with water." Ye Bai said.
Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi looked around: "Where is the water here?"
Ye Bai thought for a moment: "We can go back along the passage and see if we can find a water source."
Several people immediately left this space along the passage and ran towards another passage.
Sure enough, they successfully found a stream.
"Wow! So beautiful!" Meng Ziyi couldn't help but exclaimed. She lay down by the stream, scooped up some water with her little hands and took a sip.
The sweet stream water flowed down Meng Ziyi's throat, making her feel incredibly refreshed. She stared at the stream in front of her with a smile, "It's so delicious."
Ye Bai also tasted the stream water and found it refreshing and sweet. "This stream water is of high quality, so it should be drinkable."
Meng Ziyi suddenly raised his head: "Ye Bai, I found that you like drinking water as much as I do. We are really destined to be together!"
Ye Bai coughed lightly twice and changed the subject: "Let's get some water first. We still have to go through a cave later."
The three of them took out their tools and prepared to dig the soil beside the stream.
Then the soil was transported into the tunnel. Ye Bai led Meng Ziyi and Yang Mi to dig all the way forward until they reached the end of the stream.
They found a rock blocking their way.
Ye Bai knocked on the rock, but there was no response.
"There are rocks here!" Yang Mi said in surprise.
"The rock is covered with moss and vines, blocking the view. Let's move it away first and see if there is anything else inside." Ye Bai said.
"Okay." The two women began to move the rocks with great effort.
The rock had just moved half a meter away when a dark, round bead was revealed. Yang Mi picked it up and examined it closely. "Hey, it looks a bit like a pearl."
Ye Bai looked at the beads and said, "Beads of this shape do look like pearls. If my guess is correct, then this cave might be where the pearl's owner lived."
Meng Ziyi asked doubtfully, "What do these murals mean?"
Ye Bai shook his head: "We can't be sure yet. We have to keep digging."
Ye Bai and the two women worked together to move the rocks aside. At the end of the cave was a wall. It was smooth and flawless, without a single crack. They continued digging until they finally reached a stone door.
A lifelike peony is carved on the stone gate, and five red gems are inlaid on the stone gate, sparkling with dazzling light.
Ye Bai took out the crystal ball and shone it on the Peony Gem. Red light shone through the Peony Gem, emitting a soft glow. The entire stone chamber was filled with a warm and soft light. Ye Bai breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, there is a light source here."
"It seems we found the right one!" Meng Ziyi said with relief.
Yang Mi patted Ye Bai's shoulder with a smile and said teasingly, "Finally, you didn't let me down!"
Ye Bai touched his nose awkwardly: "You guys are not bad either!"
"There must be a treasure trove here, right behind the stone gate." Meng Ziyi said confidently.
Ye Bai said appreciatively, "Well, I also think there is a treasure house behind the stone door. As long as we push the stone door open, the treasure will be within our reach!"
The three of them looked at each other and worked together to push open the stone door.
The moment the stone door was pushed open, a shrill scream spread throughout the cave.
Ye Bai and the other two followed the sound and saw a rotting corpse lying in a pool of blood.
Yang Mi was so scared that she hid behind Ye Bai: "Brother Ye, why is there suddenly a dead person here?"
"I don't know. Let's go out first."
Ye Bai was the first to walk out of the stone chamber. The space outside the stone chamber was very large, filled with various boxes, porcelain, jade and other precious treasures, piled up like a mountain.
Meng Ziyi excitedly rushed to the box and started to check it.
She pulled out a few pieces of jewelry from the box and fiddled with them lovingly: "How beautiful! These are antiques!"
Yang Mi also came over to help search, and the two became more and more excited.
Ye Bai stood outside the stone room, observing the surroundings. He saw two coffins placed on one side of the stone room, with two yellow talismans attached to the coffins, which read: Heaven and Earth, Yin and Yang, All Things.
Ye Bai's heart sank. "These two lines of poetry seem to contain some kind of pattern. I've seen related records in the Book of Changes before, but because they were too complex and there was no evidence to prove their accuracy, I put them aside."
He remembered that the I Ching mentioned a strange thing in the world - a floating coffin, which could keep corpses from decaying. However, every time it was opened, a huge price had to be paid.
Ye Bai frowned and thought for a moment, then took out a compass and walked in the direction of the coffin.
"Brother Ye, what are you doing?" Meng Ziyi shouted.
Yang Mi quickly stopped her: "Are you crazy? Those are two coffins!"
"I want to go and take a look." Ye Bai said firmly.
Meng Ziyi grabbed his sleeve worriedly and said, "Brother Ye, listen to me. Don't do anything stupid."
Ye Bai pinched her cheek soothingly: "Don't be afraid, I won't do anything rash."
Meng Ziyi was still worried. She tugged at Ye Bai's clothes and said, "Brother Ye, I'll let you go only if you promise me that you won't act rashly."
"Okay, okay, I promise you. Don't worry, I'm not a reckless man and I won't act rashly." Ye Bai coaxed Meng Ziyi patiently.
The two talked for a while before Meng Ziyi was willing to let Ye Bai go. Ye Bai quietly walked around to the back of the coffin. He reached out and touched the coffin board, and the coffin lid slowly opened, revealing a dark passage.
He stuck his head out and looked inside. The passage was deep and dark, with no bottom in sight.
