Chapter 131 Ancestral Master Inscription
"Is that so?"
Seeing Luo Sifan's self-righteousness, Jiang Changsu felt guilty. She had been so frightened that her memory was still clear; when she woke up, she found herself in this place.
Luo Sifan nodded seriously, but couldn't help but smile.
"you!"
Jiang Changsu couldn't figure it out; she had a bad feeling but no evidence, so she angrily punched Luo Sifan hard.
Luo Sifan cried out in pain and glared at Jiang Changsu:
"Sect Leader Jiang, your energy and blood are in excellent condition! You may leave now!"
He then angrily withdrew his hand and rubbed his chest.
Jiang Changsu swayed for a moment, then stood firmly, realizing that her blood and qi circulation had indeed returned to normal.
Overjoyed, Jiang Changsu didn't bother to investigate further. Adopting her identity as sect leader, she calmed her mind and began to examine the furnishings in the tomb chamber.
No longer relying on Luo Sifan for everything, Sect Leader Jiang's confidence soared, and he regained ninety percent of his cleverness. After observing the general shape of the tomb, he instantly changed color as if by telepathy.
"Elder Lin! What does the shape of this tomb chamber resemble?"
Jiang Changsu suppressed the excitement in her heart, her eyes shining as she looked at Luo Sifan.
Luo Sifan was acutely aware of her emotional fluctuations, but feigned ignorance and said:
"Sect Leader Jiang, have you figured out something? The shape of this tomb chamber does indeed seem man-made, pointed at the top and round at the bottom. I think it looks like some kind of crown or something."
Jiang Changsu hadn't originally intended to ask for his opinion. Instead, she picked up the conversation and said, word by word, with absolute certainty:
"Elder Lin has good eyesight, but I know of something that is 99% similar to the shape of this tomb!"
Jiang Sect Leader was overjoyed at the chance to be manipulated by Luo Sifan along the way, and naturally wanted to show off in front of Luo Sifan.
Luo Sifan looked over in surprise, a look of curiosity on his face. Only then did Sect Leader Jiang reveal the truth:
"It's normal that Elder Lin doesn't know. The shape of this tomb chamber is none other than a lotus seed. Legend has it that our sect's founder was conceived from a lotus seed, and this lotus seed became her most treasured possession!"
As Jiang Changsu spoke, her expression grew increasingly dignified and solemn.
He walked barefoot along the center of the tomb passage, gazing at the golden coffin on the high platform, somewhat lost in thought.
"Who else could be resting here besides our sect's founder?"
Jiang Chang turned his back to Luo Sifan, murmured softly, and then slowly knelt down, prostrating himself in worship.
Luo Sifan sensed that her mood at that moment was indeed extremely solemn.
But Jiang Changsu's alluring pose was so captivating that Luo Sifan's thoughts were stirred, and she stared blankly, losing her composure and becoming somewhat out of place with the solemn scene.
Light patterns flowed on the jade walls of the tomb chamber, as if sensing Luo Sifan's unhealthy state of mind. Strands of white light burst forth, flashing before Luo Sifan's eyes.
"This is a ghost!"
Luo Sifan wiped his eyes anxiously. The tomb hadn't been opened for nearly ten thousand years, yet it still had a mechanism?
Fortunately, the white light was not aimed at him and had no harmful effect.
However, when Luo Sifan's blurred vision returned and he saw the strange change before him clearly, he was so embarrassed that he almost scratched the ground barefoot.
White light enveloped Jiang Changsu, who was standing solemnly with her buttocks sticking out. It flowed from her neck to her feet like soft white silk, forming a skirt-like shape, completely covering Jiang Changsu.
Did you go to all this trouble just to block Luo Sifan from enjoying the view?
Luo Sifan exclaimed that it was absurd, but Jiang Changsu was overjoyed.
"Thank you for your kindness, Master!"
As Jiang Changsu caressed the jade-colored veil that seemed to have a physical form and flowed between her fingers, she was filled with joy and admiration for the sect's founder.
Even the way he glanced at Luo Sifan was clearly disdainful.
With the sect's founder backing her up, she no longer needed to humiliate herself by letting Luo Sifan take advantage of her.
Jiang Changsu stood up gracefully, exuding elegance. Her white tassels and jade skirt trailed on the ground as she moved lightly towards the golden coffin.
Luo Sifan shamelessly followed, wanting to see which immortal with such unique taste was buried in this coffin.
The jade platform beneath the golden coffin was about a foot high, perfectly straight, and exquisitely crafted. There were no offering tables or incense stands in front of the jade platform.
Jiang Changsu stopped at the head of the golden coffin, and following the customs of her sect, knelt down again to pay her respects, softly reciting some obscure and difficult words.
Luo Sifan was unfamiliar with this etiquette and had no intention of flattering this sect's founder. He simply approached and carefully examined the details on the jade platform and golden coffin, searching for any useful symbols or diagrams.
"This longing is hard to dispel; I yearn for my homeland."
The relief carvings on the jade platform depicted intertwined floral branches and swirling clouds. Unconsciously, Luo Sifan gleaned a sentence from the intricate carvings.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Changsu rolled her eyes at Luo Sifan, but then turned back to her obedient demeanor before the ancestral coffin.
She assumed that Luo Sifan was just being mysterious to attract her attention.
Luo Sifan pondered the words he had just uttered, and when he looked at the jade carvings again, he was completely bewildered.
It seems like that last sentence just slipped out of my mouth without my noticing.
Scratching his head, Luo Sifan continued walking around the golden coffin, still puzzled.
A landscape was carved at the end of the coffin, with blurry figures. Luo Sifan stared at it thoughtfully for a few breaths, then suddenly felt nauseous and wanted to vomit, so he quickly turned to the other side of the golden coffin.
The inscriptions were similar, and as before, Luo Sifan paused for a moment, then unconsciously uttered another sentence:
“When I left, the red grasses grew lush and green.”
Dancao? Luo Sifan's heart stirred, and when he looked at the relief of flowers and grass intertwined with branches, he felt a vague sense of familiarity.
Seeing that he had changed direction but was still muttering to himself beside her, Jiang Changsu looked up and glared at him fiercely.
Luo Sifan muttered about the strange sights he had seen, ignoring Jiang Changsu's annoyed expression, and insisted on turning to the head of the golden coffin, gazing at it with great anticipation.
If there is any important information on the golden coffin and jade platform, then the head of the golden coffin is probably the most crucial.
Indeed, on the jade platform and the golden coffin here, there are clearly two pieces of calligraphy of different sizes, arranged in a neat manner.
There are no other superfluous patterns.
Frustratingly, Luo Sifan didn't recognize either of the two pieces of calligraphy, and even the spontaneous, insightful remark he made never came.
Luo Sifan patiently stared intently at the annoying words in front of him.
After Jiang Changsu finished reciting her prayers, she glanced sideways at Luo Sifan, who was winking and glaring at her, and her full, alluring lips curved slightly upwards.
"Elder Lin, what's wrong? Can't you read these words anymore?"
With a gentle touch of her jade-like hand, Jiang Changsu tilted her head back and teased Luo Sifan about his actions.
Luo Sifan, devoid of inspiration, gleaned a hint from Jiang Changsu's tone and looked at Sect Leader Jiang with some surprise:
"Sect Leader Jiang seems to recognize these characters? I admire you, I truly admire you!"
Jiang Changsu nodded, a hint of smugness flashing in her eyes, and replied calmly:
"This script was created by our ancestor and is a secret script passed down in our sect. As the sect leader, how could I not recognize it?"
That's it!
Luo Sifan suddenly realized why he had been reading such a mysterious book; the head of the golden coffin actually used a self-created secret script.
"I thought Elder Lin was omnipotent and had great supernatural powers, and could even understand the secret texts of the ancestral master at a glance."
Jiang Changsu sighed, still teasing Luo Sifan.
"Sect Master, you flatter me too much."
Luo Sifan forced a smile and gave a perfunctory reply, but he was still concerned about the contents of the secret texts of the Hehuan Sect on the coffin head, so he bowed his head and humbly asked Sect Master Jiang for clarification:
"Sect Leader Jiang, are these inscriptions commemorating your sect's founder? May I hear more about them?"
