Chapter 131: Underwater Temple
"The sides are seventy-six meters long, and the remnants of the ruins are thirteen meters high, all of which are made of white limestone, but there are few signs of weathering. As for the cause of the collapse, it is not a natural collapse. Judging from the traces of the interior, it was destroyed during the war. ”
Wilson was very professional, and after a few turns, he gave the general reason.
As for the real scene, Xing Jie didn't ask and didn't care.
What happened to this temple, which had a very close relationship with Taizka Ripoca, didn't matter to Xing Jie at all.
He was now thinking about how he could save Aziz. As for Wilson and the five who want to play here, then he just follows the crowd and follows around here.
"What can such a small temple have? Isn't it just a symbol?" Ye Hao pouted as he looked at the ruins.
To be honest, he has seen a lot of all kinds of huge ruins, and he really has no interest in this kind of small point.
"This is really small compared to the pyramid that Xing Jie found in Mexico. But sometimes the temple may also unearth something good. I remember that in the fifties of the last century, a professor named Luli in Mexico discovered a temple similar to this one, and the famous Barengue Temple was found inside. Wilson said with a smile.
"Well, I know that Barenjie Temple, it seems to be the one who rode the rocket, right?" Ye Hao interjected on the side.
Unexpectedly, this sentence made both Xing Jie and Wilson laugh. Indeed, there are all sorts of strange interpretations of the picture on the Internet, mainly because the picture depicts a scene that looks like a person piloting a flying machine. However, there is another explanation for the people in the circle, that is, this person was actually sacrificed to the sacred tree!
For this, Wilson is still just speculating, while Xing Jie has the most intuitive impression. In the original Moon Pyramid, how many people did the original builders use to perform human sacrifices there? You know, the two-centimeter-deep groove on the floor of the first floor is basically filled with human blood.
In fact, Xing Jie had an idea at that time, the scene described in that picture was too similar to the human sacrifice in the third level of the Moon Pyramid. They were both kings of a country, and they both sacrificed themselves at the last moments! And the other thing is that both of them were put in coffins in the end.
However, one was placed on the fourth floor, and it was not until Xing Jie and the others opened the door of the tomb that they finally slowly fell into the bottomless pit, and the other was sleeping in the temple that had collapsed into ruins.
It's just that they all ended the same, they all died anyway, and as for what they experienced back then, all of them disappeared into the long river of history with their deaths, leaving people with only endless reverie.
"Shall we go in and have a look?" Cheng Yu curiously stretched out his head and looked through the gaps in the boulders of the ruins, hoping to find something more awesome. For so long, the that should be blown is almost blown. Taking out those things from before to show off always makes people feel very out of gear.
Xing Jie didn't care, a few people exchanged glances with each other and began to lift the stones there.
Naturally, the hardships are omitted, and it's really not interesting.
Wilson has a lot of experience studying Mayan temples, and as for the Black Tigers, it goes without saying that they are originally descendants of the Mayans. Although this is suspected of digging the ancestral grave, this temple may be dedicated to the demon king of the mixed world, Teizka Ripoca, so consider yourself to be the righteous party.
Besides, he also liked the things that the buddy named Huang Xiaobo quietly handed over just now. Who said that the Black Tiger and the tribesmen didn't know what these things were? The people of the Homilat tribe only deliberately retained the form of tribal dwelling for the sake of the continuation of the tribe. After all these years of development, I dare not say that every family is rich, at least there is no problem at all for medium families!
Besides, who doesn't like a thick pile of beautiful knives?
Since they are all mixed in this area, the layout of their temples should be very different. After establishing the correct direction, Wilson also began to deduce the layout of the passages of the entire temple on the ground with great expertise.
After the combination of two pairs, the efficiency is obviously improved.
"Wilson, do you mean that if we dig this place, there will be a direct passage to the lower temple?"
"Of course. However, this underground temple is not too big, it is about a hundred and ten square meters. Also, I don't think we should have too high expectations, because the above-ground buildings here have already been destroyed, so ......"
"Yes, be prepared for a free run, right? ”
It was easy to dig and move stones, but when they moved all the big stones out of the way and lay down five or six meters to see the scene in front of them, everyone felt hatred in their hearts. Because something happened that made everyone feel extremely uncomfortable.
What kind of monuments do you hate the most as an archaeological excavation?
As long as you are playing archaeology, you will say one term to you in unison, that is, underwater ruins!
If it's like the famous underwater ancient city of Pavlopetri, or the underwater ruins in the waters of Higashieinako, it's fine, after all, it's clearly placed there, and you can open it when you have the opportunity.
But an underground temple like the one in front of him, which is obviously not too big, has already been completely silent in the water due to years of rain, which is the biggest headache for Xing Jie and the others.
The first is the time of excavation, even with a wetsuit, it can last underwater for half an hour at most. The second is that God knows what strange things will appear in this temple. For example, what if there is this South American anaconda here? If it is on land, Xing Jie can easily kill it. But if it's in the water, Xing Jie is completely a dish of the other party!
What's more, God knows how many viruses there are in this kind of stagnant water that has existed for many years, and how many little bugs that kill people without seeing blood? Just thinking about Xing Jie and the others, their hair stood on end, and they got goosebumps all over their bodies.
What to do?
To be down or not to be down?
"I'm sorry, Jay, I'm never going to go into the water!"
"Wilson, I didn't say I would let you go down. Forget it, let's withdraw, I have underwater phobia, this kind of black underwater, I won't go down!"
Just when Xing Jie and Wilson were about to turn around and leave, the black tiger pounced violently and directly pushed Xing Jie aside, and at the same time, a black thing appeared in the water, which directly hit the black tiger's shoulder.
And the black tiger's strong muscles and strong body were easily pierced like a piece of paper, and the blood flowed. Then the whole person was forcibly pulled into the water by that black thing!
The black tiger is a strong man, and he can do not change his face when facing many dangerous beasts, and he pounces forward calmly. But now, his face turned pale, and while he struggled desperately, he shouted in his mouth: "Sabah, this is Sabah!
