Chapter 700: Engineering drawings are out? The Heavenly Palace really exists!

~7 min read 1,274 words

And this was a very traditional mural, with no narrative structure on it, entirely scenery.

It depicted a palace, which was at the bottom, and above it were clouds. At the very bottom, there were even clouds swirling.

Zhang Tianshi said subconsciously: "Is this the Heavenly Palace?"

That's right, this was something everyone could associate with.

Because what was interpreted in the picture was a scene of the sky. Even if they didn't have such associations in their minds, at least the palaces in the sky depicted in some TV shows had this kind of shape and state.

Wang Pangzi couldn't help but shake his head and smile, saying: "This Wang Zanghai is quite interesting. What's the meaning of drawing this thing? Could it be that he wants this deformed monster to ascend to heaven?"

Wu Tianzhen immediately denied Wang Pangzi's words, saying: "How is that possible? If he had this intention, he wouldn't have arranged all the Feng Shui positions in reverse."

"This shows that what is drawn above might be a place, a palace in the sky."

Wang Pangzi's eyes were full of disbelief. He looked at Wu Tianzhen and said: "Tianzhen, you really dare to guess. How can the foundation of a palace in the sky be built? Could it be that the Jade Emperor is up there?"

Zhang Tianshi suddenly interrupted at this time: "What he said is not unreasonable, otherwise why would such a painting appear inexplicably."

Wang Pangzi and Tianzhen could bicker endlessly, but as soon as Zhang Tianshi spoke, everyone knew that it was a decisive opinion.

Apart from what Zhang Lin said at the Crescent Hotel, Zhang Tianshi's words had the most credibility for the First Archaeological Team.

Wang Pangzi and Wu Tianzhen themselves also thought so.

So after hearing this, they didn't argue about anything anymore.

Wu Tianzhen pondered and said: "It seems that this undersea laboratory, or rather, this undersea tomb, should be connected to a certain layer of relationship."

"Or rather, what he hid is definitely not just the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish. Although the First Archaeological Team just entered, not a shadow of the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish has been found, which is the strangest thing."

"Even though the coffin has been opened, if there really were Snake-Eyed Copper Fish hidden here, there would at least be some simple clues connected to it."

For example, if they found an image of the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish on this mural after opening the coffin, they wouldn't find it strange.

But here, everything pointed to other things.

Wang Pangzi nodded and continued: "Do you think we might have come to the wrong place? There is no Snake-Eyed Copper Fish here, or the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish is drawn in the place depicted on this mural."

Hearing this, Zhang Tianshi didn't even think and shook his head directly, denying it: "No. Since all the clues point here, it means that the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish must have a relationship with the undersea tomb. No matter if it is in the undersea tomb now or not, it must have been here before."

Zhang Tianshi didn't speak absolutely, but he didn't forcibly associate it with the palace drawn on the mural either.

After all, no one expected that they would see other information in such a short time after coming down.

But if they kept following this information, they were worried that they might have gone off track.

Wu Tianzhen was thinking in his mind when his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had remembered something.

He subconsciously thought of the pottery jar used for scooping water just now. In the corner before, there were some porcelain inside.

Of course, they wouldn't use these things to scoop water, although they weren't blue and white, but as long as they were related to porcelain, in the context of this historical era, they could all be called priceless treasures.

What Wu Tianzhen thought of was that all the porcelain just now had different things drawn on them, and the painting style was similar to the one above. At first, the situation was urgent, so he didn't look much.

Thinking of this, he didn't wait for the two to react and ran into the corner directly.

Holding the flashlight, he picked up a porcelain vase at random and looked at it carefully.

Zhang Tianshi and Wang Pangzi looked at each other and walked over slowly.

And at this time, Zhang Tianshi's attention was quickly attracted. It was not strange at all that there were paintings on the porcelain vase, whether in ancient or modern times.

Some people just did it for the beauty of the porcelain vase, because many people buy this kind of thing just for the various landscape paintings and beauty portraits on it, which have a strong ornamental value when placed at home.

But there are also people who like that kind of elegance, such as the shapes of Yuan blue and white and Ru ware.

There is nothing on Ru ware, just the simplicity of the crackle patterns.

Everyone likes different things, which was the reason why the three of them didn't notice the pictures on these porcelain vases at the beginning.

But the mural on the coffin-pressing stone suddenly awakened Wu Tianzhen; it seemed there was some potential connection here.

Wu Tianzhen even thought that it was precisely these things they had ignored at the beginning that could give them a brand-new understanding of the things that followed.

In the archaeological profession, one must have such curiosity. It's not that you enter a tomb to look for something and always carry that purpose, while ignoring other things.

One must carry three parts of suspicion toward anything one doesn't understand; this is also called professional quality.

And the live stream camera also suddenly gathered on the porcelain vase. Following the perspective of the three, they also saw the exquisiteness of these porcelain vases. Even though these dust-sealed items were covered with countless years of dust, it didn't affect their beauty at all.

Instead, it added a sense of historical weight to them.

【Damn, it's so beautiful. Could this be blue and white porcelain?】

【Big brother, did you graduate from elementary school? Blue and white porcelain has a white base and blue glaze, look at this again.】

【That's not right, what kiln is this? Is it an official kiln from the Ming Dynasty?】

【There's no such thing made like this, I reckon it's Ding ware or Ge ware or something.】

【About the same, only these two Ming Dynasty kilns would carve landscape paintings on them, which can be considered their exclusive.】

Some people in the live stream room who understood antiques expressed their opinions one after another.

But right now, this trio didn't care which kiln these porcelains were fired from; the key was what was carved on them.

Although these were not murals, there must be information hidden within them.

This point was also confirmed by Zhang Tianshi after seeing the porcelain vase.

Wang Pangzi, on the other hand, was confused. He could roughly understand what was drawn on these porcelain vases.

But he always felt that the order was very chaotic, and none of them were related to each other.

Each one was doing an independent thing. If one really wanted to record something with these porcelain vases, at the very least, they had to be combined into a complete story line.

Such a story line couldn't be generated, so the things recorded by the porcelain vases themselves were probably unsatisfactory.

Wang Pangzi thought helplessly, and at this time, Wu Tianzhen and Zhang Tianshi had already started to act.
