MTL - Law of the Devil-Chapter 15 [The greatest female astrologer]
Chapter 15 [Study Treasure II - The Greatest Female Astrologer]
Du Wei picked up a candlestick. After thinking about it, he took a hanging weapon from the wall. Of course, considering his weak physical strength, he chose a short sword. Slightly indulged for a while, Du Wei picked up a few new candles and broke into his arms.
Then Du Weimai walked into the secret room on the wall.
The faint candlelight can only illuminate the space about two or three steps before and after. Fortunately, Du Wei's natural spirit is stronger than ordinary people, and the sense of the surrounding is also stronger.
This is a secret road inlaid in a huge stone wall. There are cold and hard stones on both sides. I don’t know how many years. This secret road is full of dust, even though Du Wei has tried to lighten every movement. But he still couldn't avoid the dust, and sneeze again and again.
From time to time, the foot will step on some small stones, and the candle will sway. Du Wei can only move forward so carefully.
Fortunately, this place seems to be ventilated. Although the candle is swaying, it is not extinguished because of lack of oxygen in the air.
The secret road went for a while, and there was a step in front of it. The steps that circling all the way went straight to the ground. The steps were very narrow. They were also piled up with stones. It looked a bit rough, but it was still strong enough, so all the way down, according to Du In Wei Xin’s estimation, after about thirty steps, I finally saw a small door.
The metal doorknob said that it had already rusted. Du Wei held the door handle and twisted it twice, but found that the door was locked. This door could not be opened. He sighed, and suddenly he remembered the words on the bookshelf...
"The spoon is the key..."
Du Wei thought for a moment, lifted the candle and took photos in front of the door, and finally saw a pattern on the ceiling of the door.
This is a carved pattern. According to the above pattern, Du Wei can barely recognize that this seems to be a star map. He is not very researching on the astrology, but because he remembers the "spoon" problem in his mind, it is very It is clear that on this pair of astrological maps, the "Big Dipper" with a shape resembling a spoon was found.
"The spoon is the key..." Du Wei muttered. The ceiling was a bit tall for him at the age of thirteen. He even had his feet up and his hands could not reach the ceiling. Through the dim candlelight, Du Wei carefully studied the pattern.
A candle almost burned out, and when Du Wei lit the second candle, he suddenly felt a move, and he remembered an important question!
key?
joke!
If this secret passage is discovered, then even if the incoming person has no key, wouldn't he find a tool to open the door? Without the key, the door can be opened with rude means.
In this case, the key is not so important. However, the phrase on the tip is so special to indicate the "key", then there must be different deep meaning!
In other words, if you don't have a key, you can use it or other methods, which are invalid.
This "key", I am afraid, cannot be explained literally.
Du Wei sat down and thought for a while. When he stood up again, he jumped up and tried to raise the short sword in his hand and barely knocked on the ceiling of the Big Dipper.
boom!
Du Wei's eyes are bright! This sound seems to be a bit empty.
He gave up the attempt to pay attention to the door, but bent down, found a gap in the slate on the ground, and then inserted the short sword into the gap, so that the short sword was erected on the ground, then Du Wei Qiang firmly supported the wall and stepped on the dagger, so that he stood a little higher, although he still had some swaying, but barely reached out to reach the ceiling.
There was a thick layer of dust on the ceiling. Du Wei fumbled for a while, and could feel that the star pattern on the Big Dipper had obvious unevenness from other places. He tried some methods, knocking, twisting, turning, and so on.
Finally, he didn't know where he touched it. He turned it hard and twisted the stone of a star. With a bang, the floor of the corner suddenly fell down!
There is a black passage on the ground, and the passage is all the way down!
Became!
Du Wei snorted and smiled and jumped from the dagger's hilt.
Sure enough, this is a tricky trick! Du Wei is convinced that his guess is correct.
The rusty door next to it is simply a blind eye! The real secret is not at all on this door! If the person who came here did not pay attention to the "Big Dipper" according to the prompts, even if you open the door with brute force, you can't find the real secret here!
Du Wei is convinced that the real secret of this place lies in the black passage that sinks on the ground!
He walked to the side of the passage. The entrance was very narrow. He could only let a person reluctantly enter. The inside was dark. Du Wei first lit a candle and threw it in. With the falling candlelight, he could see that the steps below were not deep, about Just two or three meters high, it should be a secret room.
Du Wei didn't go down immediately, but waited for a while at the entrance of the passage. Seeing that there was nothing unusual underneath, it was carefully going down the steps.
•;
This is a room that is closed all around, with closed stone walls on all sides, and a row of iron cabinets on both sides of the wall, many of which are sealed, and the locks on the top are all rusted. In the middle is a huge stone platform.
This stone platform is about the height of Du Wei's waist. The table is engraved with a lot of esoteric patterns that are difficult to read. The middle is a large arc, and all the surrounding points are the positions of the stars.
Du Wei looked at it for a while and felt that there was no clue. Then he gave up the study of the pattern on the table and concentrated on searching on the iron cabinet next to it.
The iron cabinets here are all locked, because of the age, I am afraid that the lock inside has long been rusted. Du Wei worked hard for a long time, just when he felt a little depressed, finally, he cheered and found a drawer that was not locked!
This is also the only drawer on the entire iron cabinet that has not been locked!
After opening, a stone scorpion lay quietly in the drawer.
On the stone scorpion, a badge of the Rollin family is engraved on the front!
Du Wei struggled to lift the scorpion, then sat down on the ground and carefully opened it. In the scorpion, there is a roll of parchment.
This piece of parchment was densely written with some words, and after the parchment was unfolded, a hexagonal-shaped green crystal resembling a jewel was dropped from the paper roll.
Du Wei patiently lit the third candle she brought, and then quietly read the text on this parchment...
"The believer respects:
Dear reader, you must be a descendant of the Rollin family. So the first thing you have to know is that this is a letter from your ancestors. I wrote this letter, the wife of the seventh generation of the family of the Rollin family, the astrologist Mel. ”
When I saw the first two sentences, Du Wei could not help but have some accidents.
Astrologer, Semel?
Du Wei certainly knows that in the history of the Rollin family, there was a strange family patriarch who was very interested in astrology and even married a female astrologer. The family castle where Du Wei is now, the tallest building in the castle, and a tall white tower, was built by the family patriarch that year, so that his astrologer wife can stay at night. Better observe the stars in the night sky on the high tower!
Du Wei did not expect that this letter was actually from the wife of the patriarch, the female astrologer!
He continued to read.
"...when you read this letter, I hope that you can understand what you will face next, it will be a risky adventure. You may open a door that has been banned for countless times. Because it is very likely, behind this door, it will be a taboo field that humans cannot touch.
At the same time, this is also the result of my life research.
If you are ready for adventure, then you can take the jewel that the envelope is together, then you carefully explore the stone bench in the room, you will find a socket, after inserting the gems, you will get me The most complete information left. In order to ensure that the inheritance of information does not fall into the hands of outsiders, the information must start with the blood of the Luolin family. Please drop your blood on the gems. The blood of the Luolin family will lead you to the ones I left behind. information. ”
At the end of the letter, there is a line of text:
"May the great Luolin family prosper, because my husband, I fell in love with this family!
Your ancestors, Semel • Chila • Luo Lin’s words
Du Wei finished reading in one breath, and couldn’t help but feel a little more shocked!
Because according to the family history he has seen, he is against Semel; Kira; Rollin (the real name is Semel; Chila. Just married to the Luolin family, he only took the name of the Luolin family) The impression of the name is very profound.
This woman is the wife of the seventh generation of the family, a famous female astrology master. In the field of astrology, she is worthy of admiration! Du Wei’s enlightenment teacher, Rosiat’s old scholar, is also an astrologer. During the one and a half years of the education of Du Wei, he occasionally mentioned the wife of Du Wei’s ancestors. Full of respect. He even accidentally mentioned that the female astrologer named Semel almost seemed to be the best astrologer in the Empire for nearly two hundred years!
What makes Du Wei impressed with this name is not because the Semel is a great master of astrology, but for another reason.
Because, in the records of the Luo Lin family that Du Wei had seen, the female astrology master was also a woman who loved her husband.
The seventh generation of the lord of Luolin who married her, did not live for a long time and died at the age of fifty. The Semel female astrology master, she is obviously an infatuated woman. On the third day after her husband's death, she died on suicide and sorrow on the tall white tower built for her husband.
Before the death, the female astrology master wrote a sentence on his tower:
"Because of love, we will live forever."
It is because of this last word that Du Wei remembers the famous women in this family history.
Without hesitation, Du Wei immediately squatted down and explored the stone platform, and soon found the socket that the letter suggested.
The size of the socket is exactly the same as the shape of the jewel. Du Wei immediately cut his finger without hesitation and dropped a drop of blood on the gem.
As the jewel is inserted into the socket. Du Wei subconsciously stepped back two steps...
In the dark secret room, suddenly, there was a strong ray of light on the patterns on the square stone platform in front of it, which made the whole room shine like white! The strong light even stabbed Du Wei to open his eyes!
Then the light gathered together little by little, and finally a light column was formed on the stone platform, and a figure appeared in the middle of the light column!
This is not a real person, but a phantom that is very similar to a real person!
The size of this phantom is the same as that of a real person. Du Wei can't help but round his eyes!
He suddenly reacted to a very important thing!
This Semel, the legendary female astrology master, is also an excellent magician! Because of all this happened, and the illusion in front of it, it is clearly a kind of magic! !
The radiance of the phantom gradually fades, and the strength of the ray is just right enough to allow the naked eye to withstand.
Du Wei finally could see the figure standing in the light column.
A woman wearing a red robe all over her body, with long silver hair, her whole body is covered in a red robe, a face is very beautiful, and her eyes seem to be gentle, just a pair of black braids. Let Du Wei feel a sense of ecstasy.
"The person who opens the information, I am your ancestor Semel; Kira; Rollin." This phantom slowly opens: "This is the last magic message I left before I died. I left This magical array needs to be filled with the magic crystal of my own magic, plus the blood of the Rollin family, to open. Since you can see this message, then you are the descendant of the Rollin family, then you I can get the secret of everything I have without reservation."
Du Wei looked at the beautiful woman in front of her life, he could not help but feel a little shocked inside!
Can use a magic array to keep a message for a hundred years! This magical skill is already a superb magic master! ! This Semel has such a skill!
"I can't tell how many years have passed since you started this message, and you can't know how much magic left in the magic crystal. So, please listen carefully to every sentence I say. Because, I am afraid there is no magic to let this magic array start the second time."
Semel’s phantom slowly said.
Although knowing that this Semel is not a real person, it is just a phantom left, but Du Wei can't help but nod.
"The first thing I want to explain is that what I left for you may bring you endless benefits, and it may bring you endless troubles. Because my lifelong research results, except my husband, there is nothing. One knows. If you can open this message, since you can come here, you must have a certain understanding of astrology, at least for astrology. So first of all, I want to tell you one of the most important things. The thing is: all the astrologers in the world are wrong! They, all, everyone, are wrong!
Because astrology is definitely not a superficial thing that predicts the future only through changes in the astrology. Although all people now think that astrology is just a prophecy. However, what I want to tell you is... astrology is actually a powerful and profound magic of magic.
Astrologers should not only be considered as scholars of astrology, but should not be just shallow and sinister prophets.
A true astrologer should have the power to rival all magicians!
Since the magician can summon the power of the wind, with the help of rain, storm, fire, and so on, all the forces of nature. Then, why can't astrologers borrow the power of stars?
Even our astrologers can go further! Because, I found that the magicians can not, even the power that can never be mastered... This is the law! ”
