Chapter 395: Exploring the Flood Wilderness

Everything has to talk about a number of rituals, this stone tower is the tomb of the wolf king, and Gao Zhan is a descendant of the wolf king, equivalent to the owner of this stone tower, it is the right way to take it into the house, enter the yang house to be accompanied by the owner, enter the yin house to be accompanied by the descendants of the tomb owner, this is the basic etiquette.

Gao Zhan also wanted to go in, but it was not allowed to climb high, and Wu Zhongyuan had to take it, so he was a little embarrassed, and Wu Zhongyuan didn't give it a chance to excuse himself, so he jumped on the stone tower directly and passed sideways through the gap in the stone.

The inside of the stone tower is very dim, due to the great difference in brightness between the inside and outside, looking down at the situation below, Wu Zhongyuan wanted to break off the corner of the stone and throw it to explore the way, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not appropriate to damage the tombstone, so he urged the fire dragon true qi to send out a red flame shining illumination.

By the light of the flames, Wu Zhongyuan could roughly see the situation below, the tomb was not very large, only a few hundred square meters, and there was no coffin in the tomb, only a standing stone statue and some rectangular stone tables, and there seemed to be something on the stone table.

This is the tomb of the wolf king, and it is not a monster's lair, there will be no potential danger, Wu Zhongyuan triggered the flame just to determine whether there was water in the tomb, and after making sure that there was no water inside, he jumped down with Gao Zhan.

Gao Zhan felt very faceless by being supported by Wu Zhongyuan, in fact, he didn't need to be supported by others when he jumped down from a height, and he was worried that Wu Zhongyuan would see him as a straw bag, so Gao Zhan said, "My lord, I have some aura cultivation, and I know how to do it." ”

Wu Zhongyuan was squinting at this time to adapt to the dark environment, and he said casually, "I know, but this place is the mausoleum of your ancestors, how can I come in first." ”

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Gao Zhan was very moved, although Wu Zhongyuan was not polite when he spoke to it, and sometimes he would say the opposite thing and ridicule it, but what Wu Zhongyuan did reflected his respect for it.

There will be no dangerous mechanism in this place, to adapt to the light inside the stone tower, Wu Zhongyuan looked around and looked at the situation in the tomb, the tomb is a regular square, the latitude and longitude are seven zhang, there is a stone platform in the north area, there is a mighty statue standing on the stone platform, the statue is about one zhang high, the human body is a wolf head, the warrior is dressed, the upper body is not wearing clothes, only a huge bronze heart guard is hung on the shoulders, and the lower body is wearing a hakama connected by copper sheets.

The statue stands tall with its right hand out, striding and standing, and it is not difficult to see from its standing posture and the movement of its right hand that the statue should have been holding a lynx stick before, but the dragon stick has been reborn, so the statue has no weapon in its hand.

The statue is located in the middle of the tomb in the north, there are many rectangular stone tables on both sides in front of it, to be exact, it should be a stone table, fixed eyes and count, three on the left and four on the right, a total of seven.

There were two things on each stone table, one of which was a different style of weapon, and the other was a little more terrifying, a variety of skulls, which were of various sizes and shapes, only one of which was like a human skull, and the rest were clearly not human, but should belong to a different kind of beast.

While Wu Zhongyuan was observing the situation in the tomb, Gao Zhan was also doing the same thing, the situation in the tomb was very different from what it had previously guessed, and what surprised it the most was that there was no coffin in the tomb.

"My lord, why is there no coffin?" Gao Zhan was puzzled.

Wu Zhongyuan did not answer, but walked towards the statue of the wolf king in front of him, because the age is very old, the statue is full of dust, but the thick dust and years of oxidation have not completely covered the true color of the statue, look closely, you can still find that the statue is a little yellow.

Gao Zhan didn't dare to move around at will, so he followed Wu Zhongyuan towards the statue.

Wu Zhongyuan walked close to the statue and waved his aura to brush away some of the dust on the statue, so that it became clearer that the statue was not carved from stone, but made of a yellow metal melted and cast, if nothing else, it should be gold, because although the color of the statue has darkened, it is still yellow, if it is bronze, it will definitely oxidize and turn green after so many years.

Gold has actually existed for a long time, but because the texture is soft, it cannot be fused to make weapons, so it has been ignored by the world, but being ignored does not mean that no one uses this metal, and the Tianseal Chronicle is made of gold.

For the metal of gold, many people only know that it is very valuable, mistakenly believe that it is valuable because of its rarity, in fact, this is a complete misunderstanding, gold is valuable because it has a strong spirituality, can gather benign breath including aura, and has a certain positive effect on the wearer, some Taoist temples and temples like to use gold dust to shape the golden body of the statue, in the eyes of the layman this is to show off wealth or simply for good looks, in fact, they are just to enhance the spirituality of the statue, so that it is more effective.

Corresponding to gold is silver copper, silver and copper also have the effect of gathering benign breath, but the effect is slightly inferior to gold, but it cannot be said that gold is better than silver and copper, because these three metals have their own attributes, gold is a pure yang thing, and the accumulation is yang, and gold jewelry is not suitable for women to wear. The silver is feminine, and the accumulation is yin, and men will lack masculinity when they wear it for a long time. Only copper is half of yin and yang, there are few taboos, and it is widely used.

People at this time didn't know about this property of gold, but just because they didn't understand it doesn't mean that no one understands it, at least the people who built the statue do.

Wu Zhongyuan originally thought that this statue of the wolf king was cast of pure gold, but when his eyes moved to the right hand of the statue, he found that his idea was not correct, this statue was not pure gold, it was only gold.

The statue's right hand originally held the lynx dragon stick, and after the lynx dragon stick was born, the statue's palm was exposed, and Wu Zhongyuan saw the phalanges inside, and the appearance of the phalanges showed that the wolf king's body was hidden inside this statue.

Discovering this, Wu Zhongyuan stood upright and raised his hand to bow deeply to the statue.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan saluting the statue, Gao Zhan reacted, hurriedly knelt down on his knees, and kowtowed to the statue.

"Look at the statue's right hand. Wu Zhongyuan reminded.

Gao Zhanchong kowtowed to the statue and was about to get up, when he heard Wu Zhongyuan's reminder, he looked fixedly, and when he saw the statue's palm showing his phalanges, he hurriedly knelt down again, kowtowing more than once.

When Gao Zhanchong kowtowed to the statue, Wu Zhongyuan walked to the statue and inspected the stone platform in front of the statue, but he was disappointed by the results of the inspection, and there was no writing on the stone platform.

Looking around at the stone walls on all sides, the stones that build the tomb are all bluestone in their natural color, without any painted whitewash.

There are not many things in the tomb, except for the statue of the wolf king, there are only seven stone tables left, and the skulls and weapons on these seven stone tables are likely to be the enemy generals killed by the wolf king before his death and the weapons they used, which is the proof of the wolf king's great military exploits.

Since there were no murals or texts in the tomb, the desire to learn about the other five realms through murals and texts had been frustrated, and now I could only examine the skulls and weapons on the stone table, and I could learn a little about the enemy.

With the mentality that talking is better than nothing, Wu Zhongyuan walked to the first stone table on the right, on which was a human skull, and the weapon was a broken sword that broke in the middle.

When I got closer, I just wanted to look at the skull, and suddenly found that there seemed to be words on the stone table, but the handwriting was very small, and the dust that fell on it was thick, almost all of it was covered.

Endure the excitement in his heart, stretch out his hand, nervousness and apprehension instantly turned into ecstasy, there are words, the words are small, but the number of words is a lot.

Wu Zhongyuan is not afraid of a lot of words, I can't wait to find tens of thousands of words, he knows almost nothing about the flood war back then, and any words are valuable information to him.

Naturally, there will not be tens of thousands of words on the stone table, and there are only dozens of them on the visual inspection, so Wu Zhongyuan is also very satisfied, you must know that there are only a few thousand words at this time, and each text represents more meaning than modern words, and these dozens of words must contain a lot of information.

Punctuation marks only gradually appeared after the Han Dynasty, and the text on the stone table has neither punctuation marks nor branches, and it is not easy to read, but it is not easy to read, but it is not difficult for Wu Zhongyuan, because he is a student of archaeology and belongs to historical practitioners, and sentence breaking is the basic skill of all historical practitioners.

Just one sentence made Wu Zhongyuan's heart beat faster, "Twenty-eight years of gale." Because the interval is too long, the history has a serious discontinuity, and it is impossible to deduce which year the 28th year of the gale is, nor can it be deduced how many years ago, but this sentence still contains very important information, the legend of Fuxi's original surname is Feng, and the gale is naturally the name of Fuxi's year, and the 28th year of Gale is the twenty-eighth year after Fuxi ascended the throne.

The first sentence had already made Wu Zhongyuan's heart beat faster, and the second sentence directly made his blood flow, 'Follow the king's expedition, cross the yellow light barrier, and pursue the ferocious. ’

The amount of information contained in this sentence is even greater, the enchantment here should refer to the black hole leading to the other world, there are four similar black holes, one each in the southeast, one in the northwest, and the light emitted by different black holes is not the same, he has only seen the black hole in Nanguan open, and he has not seen the other three black holes open, but others have seen it, according to legend, Xiguan emits black light, Beiguan emits green light, Dongguan emits yellow light, and Nanguan He has seen it with his own eyes, black holes emit blue light when they open.

Earlier, he had visited Xuanwu stationed in Beiguan, and Xuanwu had rumored to inform the gods and demons of the four sealed directions, Dongguan sealed the Shinto, Nanguan sealed the ghost road, Beiguan sealed the demon road, and the West Pass sealed the demon road.

Although this second sentence does not state who the pursuing enemy is, it mentions the Yellow Light Enchantment, which is a yellow light and naturally Shinto.

Before that, he had always thought that these four black holes were one-way, and the gods, ghosts, and demons inside could come out, but humans could not enter, but now it seems that this is not the case, and these four black holes can communicate with each other in an open state.

In addition, this sentence also contains another message, that is, at the twenty-eighth day of the gale, humanity has gained the upper hand in the Great War of the Flood and began to cross the border to counterattack.

"Your Excellency. Gao Zhan's voice came from the side.

Wu Zhongyuan retracted his thoughts and turned his head to look at it.

"My lord, your mount is still outside with a stone on its head, and that posture is tiring, should we hurry up?" Gao Zhan asked.

"It's out of the way, it's holding up. Wu Zhongyuan said casually, and after saying that, he felt that he couldn't get out for a while, so he gave Dasha the god to push the stone that was supporting him inside.

"My lord, is the words on this useful to you?" Gao Zhan asked again.

"It worked. Wu Zhongyuan nodded.

Gao Zhan was relieved when he heard this, in fact, he also wanted to know what was written on the stone table, but he was embarrassed to ask, so he could only endure his doubts and curiosity and wait quietly.

Wu Zhongyuan continued to look down, if the first two sentences brought him shock, then the third sentence brought him doubts, 'Yu Fuyun Mountain encountered the god general Feng Fei, fought for three years, and was under the staff of death. ’

The meaning of the staff of death is to beat the opponent to death with a stick, which also indirectly shows that this battle is not a group battle but a two-person fight, but how can a fight last for three years......
