Chapter 142: The Story Behind the Rock Paintings

"Since the exchange of information, then Mr. Xing Jie, can you tell me about your source of information?"

Pope Cosima did not directly refuse, but asked rhetorically.

Xing Jie raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

He squinted at each other and smiled.

"O Grand Duke Rashid of Dubai. This kid was able to rise to such a position, but he owes me a lot of favors, and of course, as for the Grand Duke Zeid, he also made a lot of efforts. If it was the two of them who provided information, it would be fine. ”

Pope Cosima smiled noncommittally, but quickly shook his head.

"Since Mr. Xing Jie said it, then I have nothing to hide this information. It was given to Jesus by an angel when he was in the wilderness during his trial, and the long poem was preserved as a holy word. This is described in detail in the Gospel of Matthew. However, in the second revision, this event was omitted. ”

Xing Jie frowned and glanced at the Pope.

"The first edition of the Bible, Matthew 4:4? I still remember that Pope Salvatore was holding the Bible and couldn't put it down. But I don't have the slightest impression of that long narrative poem. ”

Hearing Xing Jie say this, Pope Cosima finally laughed.

"Do you really not have the slightest impression? Do you recall the arrangement of the Pope's private study, the scrolls near the wine shelf? But as far as I know you, those scrolls are not attractive at all as the wine on the wine shelf?"

Well, the Pope's eyes are poisonous enough.

But that's right.

Xing Jie really has no interest in those long and smelly poems written in ancient languages.

"Although I have walked through the valley of death, I am not afraid of evil, you are only cursed souls, and you will be burned by the flames of hell?

That's right, Xing Jie heard this, and glanced back at Aunt Isabel again.

The first time this phrase came up, it was after two of Isabel's aunt's men went insane in the labyrinth of the Forbidden Mountain. At that time, Xing Jie thought it was strange, but he didn't particularly care.

The second time was behind the strange black wall in the ruins of the Sanbishan Battlefield.

Well, the information Xing Jie got in his hand was translated. As for the original, I'm sorry, but the provider didn't take it out. So Xing Jie didn't expect this rather strange verse, but he didn't expect the Pope to read this sentence here.

What Jesus' trial was is not very important until now. The big question is, why would any of the angels give him this detailed map? This has always been a matter of contention in the Holy See, so the second Pope, St. Linus, took this passage and changed it to be included in the Psalms of the Bible. And the first version was always in the Holy See.

Of course, not everyone except the Pope is unaware. In the history of the Holy See, there is an exclusive name, the hostile pope, and the reason for their formation is that they cannot reach a mutual compromise with the Holy See because of this matter. For example, Isabel's family and Britta are basically related to this matter. But today, I put this, and I finally confirmed it. ”

Well, Xing Jie felt extremely admired for Pope Cosima.

After a lot of hardships, I almost died here.

Is it because of the power that proves the truth of the Gospel of Matthew about the encounter with an angel?

You are the Pope, the eldest brother, the head of a sect, except for the old man of Jehovah, you are the biggest, this status, this old bull.

You're not a Mew fanatic!

Besides, what can you politicians do such a selfless thing?

Tricksters, huh?

But since people don't want to talk about it, then they won't pursue anything.

Now what is needed is the accuracy of the intelligence.

As for the truth of the matter and the hidden and behind the story, it is better to leave it to those who are willing to explore.

Xing Jie said: Isn't it good to have that time to go home and spend more time with his wife and children? Thousands of years ago, Chen Guzi was rotten sesame, and whoever wants it to take it is good!

The ground of the canyon is wide.

It doesn't matter if it's the ground or the walls on both sides. Generally speaking, there are not many changes, but what about the style, but it has always been the characteristics of the ruins.

Maybe it's really a holy place.

All the patterns, all the patterns, here abandon the usual complexity of the ornaments in the ruins below.

Instead, he uses a very simple, very abstract brushwork to re-describe the stories.

"It's hard to believe that such an awesome existence as a fighting creature was like our ancients in the beginning, and they also relied on hunting for a living. Hey, this paint is similar to the paint on the walls of the Dead Sea Temple. ”

Xing Jie looked at the petroglyphs on the wall as he walked.

I didn't care if the murals needed to be protected, so I reached out and scraped them off with a knife and carefully identified them.

Xing Jie's life is really good.

His father-in-law or Li Sishi are not there.

Otherwise, with this knife alone, Professor Yang would dare to smoke Xing Jie with the sole of his shoe.

And Li Sishi dared to take an archaeological hammer to knock Xing Jie's brain!

Of course, in the team at this time, Uncle and Aunt Isabel were already used to Xing Jie, so they simply ignored it. As for Brita, she clenched her fists tightly, and finally simply looked elsewhere, out of sight, and let Xing Jie see the joke!

The others are a bunch of reckless people.

In their eyes, this petroglyph is just a painting.

What's the big deal?

Not to mention that the thief is ugly, I can't understand what they are drawing!

The colors of the murals are simple.

Now it seems that when it was first drawn, it was far less elaborate than the later builders. It is a group of ancients who chose a relatively flat place in the huge rock wall, and used a kind of golden paint to draw some trivial things in life with stick figures.

At the beginning, the content of the mural was not unusual, it was very life-like, just hunting, dancing and so on every day. The most awesome thing is to record a solar eclipse, people are very panicked, kneeling on the ground to worship.

However, after that, the content of the mural story began to change towards the fantasy style.

Hunting, have you ever seen a dinosaur?

Of course, if you want to compete with a prehistoric monster head-on with the skinny body of the ancients, it will be like forming a group to send warmth to the dinosaur community.

Hunt?

It's pretty much the same as a snack!

But it's not the same with a helper.

The appearance of giants has made the fruits of hunting incomparably rich.

Now that you have something to eat, then unite as a family. The bonfire is blazing, everyone gathers around to eat barbecue, and when they are full, they dance, anyway?

Then, step by step, these huge guys began to merge with the ancients.

We have all seen these scenes before, and many of the stone paintings have basically similar content.

But how can they become mortal enemies in the end?

Is it really not my race, and their hearts must be different?

Just kidding, right?

As can be seen from the animals hunted, these fighting creatures have lived with the human race for a long time.

It is said that dinosaurs became extinct tens of millions of years ago, but what about a long, long time ago?

There are no instruments and uranium dating cannot be used, so the exact time of these petroglyphs is not known.

So, let's take a bold possibility.

According to the 40,000-year-old Huomen's petroglyphs as the hypothetical starting point, to the Qinling Mountains ruins of the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor in the stone tablet paintings as the end point.

In the middle of these two or thirty thousand years, they still can't fully integrate with each other?

Xing Jie didn't believe that the ancients were able to endure tens of thousands of years in order to kill this group of huge monsters!
