Chapter 92: It's Embarrassing to Call It a Treasure?1
Seeing this Xing Jie in a hurry there, Ke Laili felt extremely funny.
originally thought that Xing Jie had experienced so much so now, and his mood would definitely be calm. But now it seems that I still don't have a lot of experience.
"Jay, do you think we're much better than Diego?"
"Of course, you are much better than him in terms of knowledge, experience, combat effectiveness, and so on. ”
"Then think about it, why did he get the bronze mask so easily? Not all ruins of civilization are as you come across, and opening this stone gate is not as complicated as you might think. It doesn't use jade rods, and it doesn't use bluestone eyes.
In the fifteenth century, the Aztecs discovered the ancient city of Teotihuacán, believing it to be the city of God. Out of reverence for the gods, they did not wreak havoc on the place, and opened the entire pyramid with considerable ease.
The way to do this is to look up to the sky, which was once sung by bards and is still taught to children by many indigenous Mexicans. However, the Spaniards at that time did not pay attention and only opened the pyramid in the most brutal way. ”
What is this? Xing Jie looked confused.
What was in the sky? In those days, there were only birds, clouds, and beyond that, the stars, the moon, and the sun. However, throughout the Indian god system, their main gods are the god of corn, the god of wind, the god of rain, the god of earth, which are closely related to agriculture, or the heaven and hell that are much the same. Although their astronomy is very popular, they have never heard of such a celestial worship as the sun and moon.
"Corelli, can you tell me more about it?"
"It's okay, it's early anyway, let's take a break. ”
According to archaeological excavations, the Aztecs, who completely inherited the Teotihuacan civilization, and later the Mayan civilization, all adopted the 260-day annual divine calendar or the 365-day solar calendar of the Teotihuacan civilization. The most well-known evidence of this is the Sun Slab, the round slate that appears in countless apocalyptic rumors. In fact, Xing Jie has also seen it more than once, and the final conclusion is: The person who can see the end of the world from this thing is really a genius!
Although from the Teotihuacan civilization to the later Aztecs, the Maya did not worship the sun god and the moon god, it does not mean that they did not pay attention to it.
Just like the dragon in China, although there is no dragon worship, the status of the dragon has always been unshakable. Because that represents kingship!
With that, Corelli began to mutter.
Although I can't understand what she is saying, it should be a poem.
Corelli can even recite poetry? You're an elite soldier in a green flat hat, can we stop being so literate?
Seeing Xing Jie's strange gaze, Corelli laughed and said, "What I just read is the Moon Song, which is famous among the indigenous Mexicans.
I just used an indigenous language, and the translation is very simple, which roughly means:
Ah, the bright moonlight sprinkles all the earth,
Moon, you represent absolute justice.
Irrespective of
Good and evil, noble and lowly,
Men and women, rich and poor,
The final soul will eventually enter your kingdom.
along
The way of the moon that leads to the kingdom of God is to worship under the seat of Kukulkan.
My soul will be blessed by the gods and enter the eternal kingdom of God. ”
"Kukulkan? Isn't that what Quetzalcoatl means? It is said that there is another meaning that also means the sun god. Xing Jie asked puzzled.
"Well, including in another song about the sun, which probably means the same thing, there is also Kukulkan in the middle. Do you think there's any hint here?" said Corelli with a smile.
What hints can there be? If you can't see it so obviously, Xing Jie has been in vain for so long. The gates of Hades are all statues of Feathered Serpents, which means that when the moon rises in the east, there will be a moonlight shining on this gate, and then, kowtow or not, anyway, you can only see the location of the mechanism when you kneel on the ground.
"Hehe, I'm afraid this is the last self-comfort of the pyramid designer, knowing that those who can get here through the illusion are masters, in order to ensure the only trace of self-esteem that he has left, he deliberately designed the mechanism like that. Xing Jie sneered.
Corelli shrugged her shoulders in agreement.
Then it's time to get some rest now, and it's time to do a good job tonight.
……
Well, Xing Jie admits here that his luck is really good. It is the rainy season in Mexico, and it rains all day and night. But at twelve o'clock tonight, the clouds cleared, and a bright moon hung high in the sky.
Now it seems that the builders here have reached the pinnacle of achievements in the fields of architecture and astronomy. Not to mention anything else, just three consecutive rainstorms in the afternoon, and there was not even a little water in the whole square. This alone makes Xing Jie feel ashamed, if such a rainstorm is placed in a mountain city, it will let you go to see the sea in minutes.
As the moonlight spread across the world, through the refraction of the unknown crystal on the top of the Stygian, a bright ribbon of light appeared on the entire staircase. This hand is really cool, not to mention the ancients, even modern people are surprised to see this.
Needless to say, this is already a miracle. Just put the corpse in the light and do nothing, just wait until this natural end, and you can proclaim that the soul has entered the kingdom of God. Anyone who has seen such a miracle will 100% become a fan of the controller, and will definitely be loyal. This hand is played beautifully, and the cost is also large, so I really don't accept it.
When the entire strip of light is directly connected to the mouth of the feathered snake in the middle, and you want to put your hand into the mouth of the snake to activate the mechanism, the posture adopted is really like kneeling. Xing Jie scolded secretly, this mechanism is designed to be too special and lacks morality, and it deserves to be passed on!
With the opening of the mechanism, the stone door rumbled open. A bottomless staircase appeared in front of Xing Jie's eyes, and when the air poured in, the stone wall lamp on the side of the staircase lit up by itself.
Originally, this hand was also good, but it was too far from the kind of ruins under Lop Nur. One uses fluorite for lighting, and here it still uses combustible lamp oil. Pick up a little with a dagger, a pinch with one hand, it's oil. But I don't know what's in it, it hasn't dried up after so long.
"Jay, look at the wall lamps and steps here are all made of obsidian. ”
"It's a bit strange for you to say that, Corelli, if you've ever seen the ruins of Nepal's Forbidden Mountain, you'll know that things here are really unbelievable, and the entire ruins there are made of obsidian, you think.
I'm a little worried about what kind of treasure this civilization uses obsidian as a gem is. If it's a warehouse of obsidian, I'd be disappointed. ”
