Zheng Fei nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Then how did you get here from Portugal?"

"Half a year ago I got an old nautical chart with a route on it, and I hid it in the cover of a book along with the clues to the grave in Alexandria. ”

"Where's the book?"

"Lost. The general smiled hatefully and stared at Zheng Fei's eyes: "You sent someone to steal it, right?"

Zheng Fei didn't answer him, he took out the book from his arms, and after tearing open the thick double-layer cover, he found two drawings.

"Then have you read this book?" Zheng Fei asked with a smile.

"No, I don't read such wild speculations. The general raised his brow disdainfully, and there was a hint of smugness in his expression, as if he had forgotten the terrible experience that had just hung by a thread.

"Oh~ then tell me, why are you looking for the tomb of Alexander the Great?"

"In search of a way to the ancient city of Crook. ”

"Crook Underwater Ancient City?" Zheng Fei frowned.

I remember that during the voyage to the Americas, in the cave on that island, the navigator left a suicide note about the ancient city of Crook, and according to his records, the location of the ancient city of Crook was in Bermuda.

"Well, the ancient city of Crook. After a pause, the general said something that surprised Zheng Fei.

"Most people don't call it that, though, and people like to call it Atlantis. ”

The familiar name of Atlantis immediately evoked memories of Zheng Fei, who had known countless stories about it as an adventurous traveler.

Atlantis, the legendary name of an ancient continent, country or city-state with a high degree of civilization, is first described in the ancient Greek philosopher Plato's Dialogues, which is said to have been destroyed by the prehistoric Flood around 10,000 BC.

In 350 BC, Plato's Dialogues were widely circulated in ancient Greece, and in the Dialogues, Plato depicted Atlantis for the first time in the form of dialogues.

Legend has it that the Atlanteans regarded themselves as the people of the god of the sea, and had a strong worship of the sea, and it coexisted with the Lemurian civilization on the earth at that time, the Lemurian civilization is located on an ancient continent northeast of present-day Australia, and the two civilizations sank in the flood of extinction 10,000 years ago.

According to European legend, the land on which Atlantis was located was located in the ocean of western Spain before it disappeared.

Strangely, in the works of Indian civilization that have survived to this day, there is also a description of Atlantis: "There have been four generations of human beings on the earth. The first generation of humanity was a generation of giants who perished by starvation. The second generation of humanity was destroyed by a great fire. The third generation of humans was the ape-man, who were destroyed by cannibalism. Later, a fourth generation of humanity appeared, which was destroyed by a great flood with huge waves. ”

According to the research of scientists after the twentieth century, before the Great Flood, there may have been a continent on the earth, a continent with a highly developed civilization, and in a global catastrophe, the continent sank in the Atlantic Ocean.

The catastrophe was triggered by a massive earthquake and the tsunami that followed, and the ash left the entire Mediterranean region in darkness for weeks, affecting plants as far away as the United Kingdom. The earthquake was 4,000 times more powerful than the atomic bomb of Hiroshima.

According to the remains of prehistoric civilizations found by archaeologists at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, this hypothesis seems to be confirmed, and in folk sayings, people call this land "Daxizhou", and the country that gave birth to prehistoric civilizations "Daxishi".

In fact, the scientific community has long named this mysteriously disappeared continent, that is, it follows the name proposed by Plato: Atlantis.

There are many versions of the Atlantis conjecture.

On the other side of the sea, there is an ideal continent that no one has ever reached, and this is the Kingdom of Atlantis. At that time, Atlantis was about to start a big war with Athens, but Atlantis suddenly encountered an earthquake and flood, and it completely sank to the bottom of the sea in less than a day and a night, becoming a nightmare for the Greeks to travel by sea. 】

[The creation of the kingdom of Atlantis was the sea god Poseidon, on a small island, there was a girl whose parents died, Poseidon married the girl and gave birth to five pairs of twins, so Poseidon divided the whole island into ten districts, and gave them ten sons to rule, and the eldest son was the supreme ruler, and named the kingdom: Atlantis.

The shores of Atlantis were home to shipyards, docks filled with three-piece oars, and docks crowded with numerous merchant ships and merchants. The kingdom of Atlantis was very rich and powerful, and in addition to the abundant products of the island itself, there were tributes from all over the world. 】

Nothing in the world of exploration has been as long as the mystery of Atlantis, which has fascinated mankind since the Greek philosopher Plato first introduced it.

Atlantis maintained prosperity and affluence under its unique system, and the people who lived there were gentle and virtuous, not indulging in great wealth, and respecting virtue in everything. However, as time went by and generations passed, these noble ideas faded day by day, and finally one day, the army crossed the Strait of Gibraltar and began to invade other countries.

The ancient Athenians bravely arrived at the attack from across the ocean, and after a fierce battle, the Athenians repelled the Atlantean army and defended their freedom. But an unknown tragic fate happened immediately.

Terrible earthquakes and floods caused the Athenian army to sink into the ground in just "a miserable day and night", while the island of Atlantis sank into the sea and disappeared from the earth.

All this happened more than 10,000 years ago.

Since Plato's account, Atlantis has become a place of great interest, especially when Columbus discovered the American continent, which further strengthened the credibility of Plato's account.

Because on the opposite side of the "real sea", there really is a "real continent", and many explorers who have explored the American continent believe that what they see there is Atlantis.

It is recorded that Atlantis fell three times, the first of which was a time when it lost part of its continent, and the second when it was divided into several islands and its people fled the country.

For the third time, Atlantis, known as a super-civilization, finally couldn't withstand such a drastic change and fell to the bottom of the sea.

However, the immigrants who followed the first and second upheaval and the Atlanteans who escaped the last catastrophe spread all over the world, and the legacy of Atlantean supracivilization crossed the far seas, contributing to the flourishing of Egyptian and Mayan civilizations.

That is, the Atlanteans were the ancestors of the Mayans.
