Chapter 59: The Battle of the Dragon and the Phoenix (Asking for Votes)

"Really?"

For Zhao Ning's enthusiastic praise, Wang Feng accepted it all, and he smiled and said: "Then can I be famous?"

It's really not subtle at all...... But young people, it's understandable.

Zhao Ning was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, when the excavation progresses, we will hold a press conference, and you will definitely become a celebrity...... A big celebrity who has caused a sensation across the country. ”

From a certain point of view, everyone has the same goal, the two hands are clasped tightly, the faces of everyone next to them are full of smiles, and the air is full of joy......

In the next few days, under the guidance of Wang Feng, the archaeological team quickly gained something.

The road covered with white bones is presented in front of everyone's eyes. Seeing this scene, even if I was mentally prepared, it made everyone very excited and frightened.

The corridor is 100 meters long, and the dense piles of bones are stacked on top of each other, which is terrifying. Even the well-informed archaeological team members are difficult to maintain peace in their hearts at this moment.

At the work site, there are special reporters who record all this with cameras. This is valuable material that may be edited into a documentary or a variety of news reports in the future.

But after seeing this scene, the reporter's camera was strongly impacted, and his body was shaking......

Only Wang Feng is calm and natural.

He may have been numb, and directly led the crowd through the corridor and into the inner space. Within the mountain, the huge space of thousands of square meters also made everyone jaw-dropping.

The neatly arranged terracotta horses and figurines made the archaeological team fall into a state of frenzy.

In an instant, they couldn't take care of Wang Feng anymore, they were short of breath, their faces were red, and they were excited to watch everything.

It's a very different feeling from seeing it in person. At this time, no matter who can be sure, the excavation of this underground palace is definitely a big event that has caused a sensation in the archaeological world.

"Incredible, incredible. ”

Zhao Ning muttered to himself, feeling that his eyes were not enough.

“…… Mural. ”

"Old Zhao, there are murals on the wall. ”

Caught off guard, someone shouted excitedly, breaking the silence.

"What a mural!"

Everyone hurriedly looked, and saw through the blazing light that there were indeed pictures painted with blue and red paint on the four walls of the wide underground palace.

The entire underground palace is not only spacious, but also high enough, as if the entire mountain bottom has been hollowed out, forming a huge space. The walls around the space are covered with patterns.

The colors are darker and the graphics are more abstract.

On closer inspection, these patterns look like pictures of war. At the beginning of the scroll, there are countless villains, forming a phalanx, and then fighting each other with guns and sticks.

Slowly, these fighting villains merged with each other and formed two camps.

The two camps directly divided the wall into two sides, which was clearly distinguished. The most striking thing is that among the two camps, each has its own totem.

In one camp, the dense villains, like stars holding the moon, surrounded a giant snake. Or rather, it's a dragon. For the serpent has horns and scales.

On the other side, the crowd was clustered, and above their heads, it was a big bird.

The big bird is boxy and has flame patterns, like the sun.

Unsurprisingly, this is the phoenix bird.

All in all, the camps on both sides were in a tragic slaughter, and rivers of blood flowed.

After seeing the mural, everyone's reaction was different. Some people are excited, excited, and some people look confused. As for Wang Feng, who had been staying by Zhao Ning's side, he suddenly asked, "Old Zhao, do these paintings have any meaning?"

Wang Feng's seemingly casual expression contained a trace of expectation.

Zhao Ning pondered for a moment before sighing lightly: "The battle between the dragon and the phoenix." ”

"What do you mean?" Wang Feng's eyes lit up.

Zhao Ning smiled, under the excitement of his emotions, he was also a good teacher, and couldn't help but talk eloquently: "Young man, do you know why, we like to call ourselves the descendants of the dragon?"

"This ......"

Wang Feng was stunned for a moment, and reluctantly replied: "Because the ancient emperor claimed to be the Son of Heaven and the incarnation of the true dragon, everyone naturally worshiped the dragon, so there is such a saying." ”

"Hehe, it's good to get a little bit of edge. ”

Zhao Ning smiled and explained, "You are right about the worship of dragons. However, the real root is still in ancient times, when our ancestors, in the period of primitive tribes, began to conquer the Quartet with dragon totem bonds. ”

Or the other way around, it can be true. ”

Zhao Ning said with a smile: "We are not only the descendants of the dragon, but also the descendants of Yan and Huang, mainly because the Yan and Huang tribes in the Yellow River Valley formed an alliance, and then annexed the Quartet to form a big tribe. ”

"Legend has it that this alliance is based on the totems of various tribes, fused and spliced with each other, and then formed the image of the dragon, which is the beginning of the dragon totem. ”

Zhao Ning sighed: "In other words, the origin of our culture and civilization is the dragon totem. ”

“…… I see. ”

Wang Feng's eyes flickered, nodded slightly, and then asked, "What about Feng?"

"The so-called phoenix is actually a bird totem. ”

Zhao Ning patiently explained: "In ancient times, there were also many tribes that worshipped birds and used birds as totems. For example, the Shaohao tribe, one of our common ancestors, calls itself the Phoenix Bird Clan, the Blue Bird Clan, the Xuanniao Clan, and so on. ”

While speaking, Zhao Ning chuckled: "There is another one more famous tribe, which is also respected by birds, do you know what tribe it is?"

Wang Feng shook his head blankly.

Zhao Ning didn't sell Guan Zi, and directly prompted: "That tribe is the Jiuli tribe." ”

"Chiyou?" Wang Feng's eyes flashed.

"That's right. ”

Zhao Ning clapped his hands and said approvingly: "According to historical records, everyone speculates that the beginning of the battle between the dragon and the phoenix should be the battle between the Yellow Emperor and Chi You. ”

"The Yellow Emperor is the lord of the Dragon Totem Tribal Alliance, and Chi You is the Great Chief of the Bird Totem Tribe. In order to compete for the world, just as depicted in the mural, there was a tragic battle. ”

Zhao Ning said softly: "Despite the ending, everyone also knows that it was the Yellow Emperor who won the final victory. But the battle between the dragon and the phoenix did not end there, but lasted for thousands of years. ”

"What?"

Wang Feng was surprised: "How can this be?"

"Feng Shui takes turns. ”

Zhao Ning smiled: "You know, the ancient tribes were just a loose alliance structure. Even if it is the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, they are only the leaders of the alliance, not the emperors under the feudal system, and their power is not as great as imagined. ”

"Even if the Jiuli clan is defeated, as long as they show submission, it is impossible to be exterminated. At most, it is a territory, a territory, and the living space has been compressed, or it is simply migrated to another place, recuperation, and a comeback......"
