Ye Feng thought to himself.
In the TV series, the existence of the Tarot Diviner was only briefly introduced on the murals around the tomb.
Prince Gumo's coffin and the sacrificial room on the first floor had nothing to do with the Clairvoyant.
Now that he was here, there seemed to be mysteries everywhere. He didn't want to think about it anymore and flew away if there was anything.
They went down to the tomb and shone their torchlights around.
It was a mural!
Looking at these pictures, Xue Li Yang shouted in surprise," These…these murals are related to Jingjue Ancient City!”
Old Hu and the others had been wondering if there were any treasures in the ancient tomb. After looking at the strange square coffin for a while, they also patiently looked at the murals around them.
The first few paintings showed that the tomb owner was the prince of Gumo when he was alive. Gumo was an elite vassal state and was oppressed. Every year, they offered a large number of treasures, cattle, sheep, and slaves.
Prince Gumo had once gone to Queen Jingjue to ask for freedom for his subjects. He had gone three times in a row, but he had never seen the Queen.
The latter painting was about Prince Gumo, who was unwilling to be enslaved by his subjects, so he painted himself as a brave sun god and sneaked into the palace of Queen Jingjue in an attempt to assassinate her, only to see a terrifying scene!
Xue Li Yang's brows were tightly locked as she stared at the mural behind her. She was extremely puzzled and said," Why is this mural so strange? In the painting, the prince was hiding in a corner to spy on the Queen. In all the murals, the Queen's face was covered with a veil. In this painting, the Queen only had her back view. She lifted the veil with one hand, and the person opposite her, who seemed to be a slave, turned into a shadow... and disappeared?”
Old Hu felt a chill run down his spine when he heard that. He said in surprise," Is this Queen of Exquisite a monster?!”
Xue Li Yang frowned and said," The queen in the painting has lifted the veil that has always been covering her face. The figure opposite her has become a dotted line. This meant that if someone had seen Queen Jing Jue's face, that person would disappear mysteriously. Or rather, that person would disappear after being looked at by Queen Jing Jue!”
Old Hu asked in shock," How…How is this possible? How could a living person disappear just like that?”
Xue Li Yang also nodded and said," My father once read a book called 'Records of the Western Regions of the Great Tang.' It recorded many myths and legends. One of them recorded a desert queen with similar abilities!”
After pondering for a moment, he said," It records the culture of Jingjue. When the last queen of Jingjue was in power, it was rumored that she had eyes that led to the underworld. As long as she took a look at the enemy, the enemy would inexplicably disappear and never return. As for where they were, only the people who disappeared would know.”
Because of this, the surrounding small countries were very afraid of her and all became affiliated countries of Jingjue Country. However, the Queen adopted a high-pressure policy and wanted the surrounding countries to worship her as a god. If anyone dared to resist, they would be skinned alive and dried in the desert. Later, it was rumored that the queen's atrocity angered the True Lord, and the queen died after a few years in office.“
"After the queen died, the kingdoms of the Western Regions formed an alliance army and attacked the Jingjue Kingdom. They were prepared to destroy the queen's tomb and completely destroy the Jingjue Kingdom. However, when the allied forces massacred the capital of Jingjue Country and prepared to destroy the Queen's tomb, a sandstorm descended from the sky and buried everyone, all the buildings, and all the treasures! The once prosperous 36 kingdoms of the Western Regions were destroyed overnight by an unprecedented sandstorm!”
Old Hu listened to Xue Li Yang's legend and sighed. He was both surprised and confused." This is strange. One is a myth, and the other is a historical legend. Maybe the Desert Queen that Miss Yang mentioned is the Queen of Essence! She actually had such a pair of eyes. It was too terrifying! However, how did she suddenly die? Could it be that the True Lord had really punished her?”
Ye Feng suddenly pointed at the remaining murals and said," The truth of Queen Jingjue's death is in these murals."”
Then, Old Hu and Xue Li Yang looked at the remaining murals.
These murals were about a fortune-teller from the Gumo Kingdom who had come from afar. He had asked Prince Gumo to poison Queen Jingjue with a slow-acting poison, which eventually killed her!
Not long after, Prince Gumo and his wife died for some unknown reason. The Clairvoyant buried them together and designed this ancient tomb.
When Old Hu saw the murals, he asked doubtfully," Miss Xue, do you think the Queen of Jingjue is so evil? Did the fortune-teller from the Gumo Kingdom really poison her to death? And why was it that nothing happened when the allied forces massacred Jingjue City, but when they wanted to destroy the Queen's mausoleum, they were drowned by the sandstorm?”
Xue Li Yang frowned and asked," Mr. Hu, what do you mean?”
