Chapter 563 Yes, Yes, Yes

The official start of work was on the second day.

Everyone changed into the committee's uniform, which was the blue windbreaker that Lu Yao had seen Song Shiyi wearing before.

Lu Yao and Isabel were also given a set and put it on.

This is not ordinary clothing, but work equipment produced by the Committee's Logistics Department, specially used for operations in the wild and unknown environments. Its official name is [Signal Suit].

The signal suit itself is very thin, and its biggest function is to enable the wearer to communicate instantly through the clothes. As long as they are in the same world and are not subject to specific interference or damage, they can contact each other.

He zipped it up and fastened the Velcro on the cuffs, the panels of the suit appearing before his eyes.

…

[Signal Suit]: A special coat that covers the entire body. After equipping it, you will gain [Signal Transmission and Reception LV1] and [Translation LV1].

HP: 230/230 Mana: 460/460 Defense +1 [Signal Transmission and Reception LV1]: Communication is achieved through the transmission and reception of specific signals.

【Translation LV1】: Able to complete basic barrier-free communication.

…

Lu Yao touched the coat that was something between plastic and linen.

Unfortunately, due to the differences in environment and natural rules, ordinary props in the virtual universe are difficult to be effective in the real universe, and only the fire prop can be universally used.

Otherwise, it would be much more convenient if these equipments were deployed on a large scale.

Led by Ding Hanzhen, a team of seven people, including Song Shiyi, Chenniao Mingzi, Wei Yingxue, Bai Xin, Lu Yao, and Isabel, left the Kitchen God's niche and came to the open space outside the Xiji Palace.

Hongzhen was guarding the Kitchen God's niche in the base camp at this time because of her shift rotation.

"Xiao Song, you will operate the Green Fly Tree. Make sure that each Green Fly Coin is at a different height to avoid interference with each other. Complete one set of collections in one hour."

"Yes." Song Shiyi accepted the order.

"Xiao Wei, pay attention to the rotation of the [Xiangfeng Copper Crow] and note the time when different copper crows chirp."

"knew."

At this time, Wei Yingxue, who had entered work mode, had switched to Lianzhen Star Lord. She yawned and touched the "Solomon Seal Star" on her neck with her hand.

"Bai Xin, you should be alert to your surroundings."

"Yes, teacher."

The young apostle received the order.

Finally, Ding Hanzhen looked at Lu Yao and said, "Xiao Huang, just follow me."

Lu Yao agreed.

Ding Hanzhen grabbed something out of thin air that looked like a scroll, and after pulling it open, he found a miniature sand table inside. A lot of sand inside formed a small miniature Xiji Palace.

"This is [Sand in the Painting]. In ancient times, there were sand tables for drawing and gathering rice. Qin Shihuang arranged a Milky Way and a sea of ​​​​mercury in his mausoleum, and the camera was used to inject it, which can be regarded as a proportional model of the world."

The old man told him: "Other people's work will eventually converge here, using sand painting to simulate the real scene."

"Look, this Xiji Palace is a typical primitive architectural style. There is a bird totem outside, which is a very common early worship. It is very common in primitive relics along the Yellow River and the Yangtze River."

"Ancient buildings are divided into two forms: nests and caves. The one used here is the stilt-style building, which is an evolution of the nest."

He gently drew with both hands, and the Xiji Palace on the sand table continued to grow larger until it was the size of a small car.

The old man pointed to the steps under Xiji Palace.

"Ganlan-style buildings are usually built with vertical wooden or bamboo piles to form a base frame that is above the ground. On the base frame, there are suspended floors supported by large and small beams, and houses are built on top of them with bamboo, wood, thatch, etc."

"This kind of building has people living on the upper floors and livestock on the lower floors. Even the palaces of the leaders at that time had the same structure, but they were larger, more solid, and showed class status, that is, these stairs."

After Ding Hanzhen's explanation, Lu Yao indeed noticed that there was an overhead space under the bottom of the Xiji Palace.

"Teacher Zao, does this mean that the construction time is after the nest?"

"Yes, it is from these details that we can deduce the age when it was made."

The old man nodded: "Mythological wonders are an objectively existing force phenomenon, but their external structure and form are closely related to the era and inclinations of the creator himself."

“But there is actually a contradiction here.”

Ding Hanzhen gestured habitually: "Nest-dwelling tribes or ethnic groups usually live in the south where the climate is more humid. And the Westernmost Country should be in the west according to the description, or in other words, Kunlun is to the west of Haojing, the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty. In other words, Kunlun or the passage to Kunlun is further west of Xi'an."

"According to the geographical environment, the people there should have mainly lived in caves and then evolved slowly. But this doesn't make sense. The transformed people claim to be from the far west, but this Xiji Palace, which represents the palace of the transformed people, is an early stilt-style building in the south... Hehe, interesting, interesting."

"Xiao Huang, what do you think?"

How do I see it? Lu Yao was a little confused.

He started from the clues: "Xiji Palace should have been built by people living in the south, and it may have fallen into the hands of the Hua people later."

"That's what I thought."

The old man became very excited when talking about investigation and archaeology, and he talked nonstop.

Lu Yao felt his head buzzing.

It seems that I am indeed a little allergic to high-concentration knowledge.

He said "yes, yes, yes" and looked away.

The [Green Fly Tree] controlled by Song Shiyi is more like a folding antenna station than a tree.

She pulled the metal prop apart little by little, and it turned into a small metal Christmas tree with many palm-sized green copper coins hanging on it.

These copper coins were picked off from above by Song Shiyi, and turned into different sizes by stacking and tightening them in different sizes - just like tightening a nut with a screw.

Song Shiyi threw these [Green Fly Coins] into the sky like throwing frisbees. The Green Fly Coins floated at different heights like small flying saucers and slowly rotated themselves.

Ding Hanzhen told Lu Yao: "The Qingxie Tree uses these Qingxie coins to record the surrounding environment. The specific principle is quite complicated. You know how to burn and play vinyl records? The mechanism is similar, but it does not use a diaphragm to drive the engraving knife, but a kind of special photosensitive printing..."

Lu Yao listened to the outline.

Anyway, I am not a R&D personnel, so I don’t need to know everything.

He asked the other side.

Ding Hanzhen also patiently explained it to him.

The [Xiangfeng Bronze Crow] used by Wei Yingxue looked like a bunch of fist-sized bronze birds strung on a pole, which reminded Lu Yao of the pole used to hold candied haws.

This is a wind meter that has existed for a long time, but in the virtual universe, this prop of the same name has more complex capabilities.

It can record sound.

All kinds of sounds will be recorded by each Copper Crow. Every time the Copper Crow calls, it means that the collection is complete, but the sound reception effect is easily affected by noise.

But the Bronze Crow can capture many sounds that cannot be heard directly, and these sounds can be verified with the image records of the Green Fly Coin.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Lu Yao thought that the committee was still professional when it came to projects.

He asked Ding Hanzhen who was observing the sand table: "Teacher Zao, you said that this is the palace of the transformed person in the Western Kingdom. Then what is the identity of this transformed person?"

"He could be a messenger."

The old man stared at the simple stilt-style palace on the sand table and said: "From the behavior, the transformed person went to King Mu of Zhou specifically to demonstrate the art of transformation."

"Considering that he came from the Westernmost Country and caused the subsequent journey of the Zhou Emperor to the west, all the way to Kunlun, then he can be basically confirmed to be the envoy of Kunlun. He could be a god or an apostle."

Lu Yao continued, "In other words, it was the Queen Mother of the West who sent a transformed being to invite the King of Zhou to visit Kunlun?"

"We cannot rule out this possibility, but we still lack strong evidence. According to the chronological records, the person in charge of Kunlun at that time was indeed the Queen Mother of the West."

Ding Hanzhen suddenly pointed at the sand table and said, "Xiao Huang, this Xiji Palace cannot be transformed or taken away by faith. Could it be that its owner is still there, or even inside?"

Lu Yao was stunned.

The transformed people from the time of King Mu of Zhou are still in this Xiji Palace...which may not be a good thing.

Just as the two were discussing, several strangers suddenly came hurriedly.

Four men.

The leader wore a straight-brimmed iron helmet. He was probably in his thirties, tall and long-legged. He wore a black tight-fitting military uniform, riding boots, and a long knife on his belt. He looked not much different from a modern soldier.

The two men behind him tied up a man with ropes. Including the man being tied up, all three of them were wearing the same black military uniform, except that they were not wearing helmets.

The leader came over quickly and said, "Superintendent, there is a problem with Pang Li."

Ding Hanzhen looked at the man who was tied up beside him: "Commander Wei, what's wrong?"

"He is now..."

The helmeted officer seemed to be at a loss for words, so he drew his sword and said, "Look, sir."

He stabbed the bound soldier with his knife.

The knife was very sharp and penetrated the soldier named Pang Li with one stab. The tip of the knife came out from the back of the soldier named Pang Li.

But not a drop of blood flowed out of the military uniform, instead there was a sticky substance like glue.

Lu Yao was also a little confused.

Immortality, or the inability to bleed?

Pang Li just looked down at the knife wound in astonishment: "I'm injured, why doesn't it hurt at all..."

The officer drew his sword and cut off Pang Li's left arm with another blow. He picked up the severed arm from the ground and handed it to Ding Hanzhen.

"Superintendent."

Lu Yao noticed that there was no blood on the broken arm either.

The bones inside were actually made up of thin pieces of wood, bamboo and straw, and the muscles that should have been there were filled with something similar to natural latex, which was flowing out from the gaps.

Pang Li, whose arm was broken, had a puzzled look on his face: "Why don't I feel any pain? Why is this happening?"

Ding Hanzhen's face turned serious.

He whispered: "The living exchange bodies, and live in place of the dead..."

Lu Yao stared at Pang Li.

Under the spell of true sight, he saw a strange name above the man's head.
