Chapter 490: Mural
After cleaning up the fire phosphorus rats in the stone room, Lin Feng carefully inspected the surrounding walls, and after turning around a few times, he found that in the entire stone room, there was only one pit just now. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
In this way, there should be only one litter of these fire phosphorus rats.
Lin Feng walked to the hole, took out a small medicine bag from his arms, and sprinkled the powder in the medicine bag near the entrance of the cave.
These powders have the effect of dispelling snakes and rats, every time Lin Feng goes out, this is one of the necessary medicines, after sealing the entrance to the cave with medicinal powder, Lin Feng called Professor Chen and they entered the stone room.
Looking at the corpses in the stone room, Professor Chen's cheeks twitched a few times, and he said tremblingly: "They are all elites in the Chinese archaeological community, just gone, just gone." β
Na Rui patted Professor Chen on the shoulder, trying to persuade him, but he couldn't.
Some of these people Na Rui also know, all of them are Professor Chen's protΓ©gΓ©s, and a few of them are researchers at the Huaxia Institute of Unnatural Phenomena.
Lin Feng led everyone to the side of the rat hole, pointed to the hole and said, "This is their nest, I have seen them all just now, there is only one place with a hole." β
Na Rui squatted down and looked carefully at the walls around the rat hole, he frowned and said, "It seems that there is really a very large burial pit down here. β
"Do you want to find someone to dig it up?" Lin Feng asked.
Professor Chen sighed beside him, "What if you dig up this place and there is still that terrifying fire phosphorus rat inside?"
The fire phosphorus rat is definitely an extremely deadly existence for ordinary people.
Lin Feng said softly, "Professor Chen, I don't know if you've caught mice. β
"Catching mice?" Professor Chen listened inexplicably, how could he, a professor of archaeology who enjoys a state allowance, catch mice?
Lin Feng said slowly: "Whether it is a vole or a fire phosphorus rat, the characteristics of rats that are afraid of water, I think they are all the same, we can use the old method to inject water." β
"Water injection?" Professor Chen was stunned.
Na Rui praised: "Master, this method is really very second." β
Ligu also followed and patted his ass: "The master's thinking is really not comparable to us ordinary people. β
Lin Feng's old face turned red and coughed dryly, he was afraid that Ligu would say something embarrassing, so he hurriedly said: "Ligu, you go and find a way to get some water, let's get these damn rats out first." β
"Good. Ligu was familiar with the environment in this area, and he immediately said, "I know there is a spring in the mountains near here, but I can't get that much water by myself, sir." β
Wang Xinliang continued: "I'll go with you, and by the way, call some people from the camp." β
Ligu nodded and smiled, "Okay, you come with me." β
After Ligu left with Wang Xinliang, Na Rui glanced at Lin Feng thoughtfully, at this time Lin Feng also lowered his head thoughtfully, Na Rui walked to Lin Feng's side and asked in a low voice, "Master, what are you thinking?"
Lin Feng said softly: "I'm thinking, if there is really a burial pit of tens of thousands of people below, then how did this burial pit be completed, and what does it have to do with the clan to which the stone tablet belongs?"
Na Rui sighed: "It's hard to say, according to the social environment at the time, none of these nobles had the ability to get so many slaves to be buried, I'm afraid we can only know the answer when we go down." β
Lin Feng turned around and looked at Professor Chen, who was squatting next to the corpse of a young man and was crying secretly, and it could be seen that this young man should be a very important person next to Professor Chen.
Na Rui explained beside him: "That young man is Professor Chen's nephew, and he has made many major archaeological discoveries at a young age, and his future is limitless, which is a pity. β
Lin Feng didn't feel a pity, he was a little disgusted and resistant to these so-called archaeological teams, including Na Rui's previous identity.
No matter what the purpose is, easily disturbing the rest of the underground ancestors is in itself a matter of detrimental to yin morality.
"Master, I'll take you around, can you try to find any clues you need. Na Rui said cautiously again.
Lin Feng nodded and said, "Okay." β
With Na Rui leading the way and explaining, Lin Feng also had a very clear understanding of this stone room, especially the words on the wall, which were exactly the same as the words on the stone tablet.
On the wall of the stone chamber on the south side, there are also murals depicted with stick figures, these murals should not be called murals, because there is no artistry, but they are carved on the stone wall with a sword, crooked and very abstract.
"Master, these murals should record the glorious history of this tribe. Narui looked up at the pattern on the stone wall, he raised his flashlight, shone at the first mural, and said, "This mural is about how this tribe was born. β
There was a hint of surprise in Lin Feng's tone, and he asked, "Na Rui, can you understand these murals?"
Na Rui said with a smile: "I also guess, no matter which dynasty or generation, the murals in the tomb roughly want to express the same meaning, most of the original manuscripts of the murals are drawn by people who know the history of this tribe first, and then handed over to craftsmen to carve, so these murals are relatively simple." β
"Master, look at this first mural. Narui's flashlight shone on the first mural, which showed a small figure standing on the top of a mountain with his hands facing the sky, as if praying for something.
This villain is portrayed very simply, a circle is used as the head, and below is an inverted vertebra that is considered a body, and this inverted vertebrae should refer to clothes such as robes.
Narui explained: "The meaning of this painting is that the founder of this tribe is asking for strength from the heavens. β
Narui's flashlight shone on the next mural, and in the second mural, several rays of light fell from the sky, shrouding the little man, and a circle appeared on the little man's head.
Na Rui said slowly: "In the Shang and Zhou dynasties, there was a circle on the head, indicating that this person was a sage person, and the meaning of the second painting is that the founder of this tribe was favored by heaven and became a sage person. β
Lin Feng listened very carefully and didn't feel ridiculous.
"Of course, most of these murals are mythical, and at that time, almost all the stories had something to do with mythology. β
Na Rui continued to shine the flashlight and said, "This third painting and the fourth painting are about the founder of this tribe who began to revitalize his own tribe, and the people of these tribes regarded this founder as a god. β
There are a lot of murals, starting from the birth of this tribe, until the tribe continues to grow, and when it comes to the ninth mural, Na Rui can't help but be a little stunned.
Lin Feng asked, "What's wrong?"
Na Rui muttered: "Strange, master, you look at this ninth painting and the tenth painting, if I guess correctly, this is the famous Xia Wei Shi Tang and Xing Jun Xia incident in history, the founder of this tribe, with a group of people defected to Shang Tang, and sent troops to march into an imperial city. β
"Is there something wrong with this?" Lin Feng didn't understand the problem yet.
The light of the flashlight quickly fell on the last few pictures, and Na Rui frowned and said, "No, if this mural is a memory, then it will be a big problem." Master, if you look carefully at the last few pictures, the founder of this tribe is standing in the sky, guarding an imperial city. β
Lin Fengzai looked at it carefully for a long time, his face also changed greatly, and he muttered: "The ninth and tenth pictures are drawn by Shang Annihilation Xia, and the last few pictures are Zhou Annihilation Shang?"
"That's right. Na Rui nodded and said in a deep voice: "The Shang Dynasty has lasted for more than five hundred years, how could the founder of this tribe live for so long?"
"Could it be the other heirs of this clan?" Lin Feng asked.
Na Rui shook his head and said: "No, if the clan leader is changed, these murals should have a painting to illustrate, all the murals are writing a person's legend." β
"This person has lived for more than five hundred years?" Lin Feng was skeptical, he had also seen an old monster that had lived for two hundred years, such as the Venerable Lord and the Holy Lord of the Righteous Sect, but how could a human being live for more than five hundred years?
Na Rui muttered, "Judging from the painting, it should be. β
Na Rui looked at the last mural and sighed lightly: "The most surprising thing is this one, master, if you look carefully, in this mural, the founder of this tribe is floating in mid-air." β
Lin Feng leaned down to take a look, and sure enough, although this mural was a little blurry, the founder of that tribe was indeed painted in mid-air, and under his feet were countless armies expressed in circles and vertical lines.
"Could it be that this person has become an immortal?" Lin Feng looked a little crying and laughing.
Na Rui's expression became a little solemn, and he said slowly: "Master, I suspect that the owner of the pendant is the founder of this tribe. β
"It's a real possibility. Lin Feng frowned slightly and said, "Looking at these murals, it seems that they haven't been finished." β
Na Rui nodded and said, "Well, something may have happened halfway through, causing all the people of this tribe to disappear, so the murals in the stone room only painted most of the stone walls. β
Lin Feng felt that his worldview had changed, he was a typical atheist, and he didn't believe that there were gods and monsters in this world at all.
He thought for a moment and said, "Na Rui, do you think there will be an answer in this burial pit below?"
Na Rui said a little uncertainly: "It's hard to say. β
Although he still didn't know much about this tribe, after reading these murals, Lin Feng finally had a little bit of understanding of this tribe, and he still couldn't conclude that the mysterious tribe that detained Ning Mengyan was this tribe that existed in the Xia, Shang and Zhou periods.
They walked around the stone chamber a few more times, but they couldn't find any valuable clues other than the mural.
After more than half an hour, Professor Chen also recovered from his grief, and after a while, Ligu and the others had already carried buckets of mountain spring water into the stone room, they were obviously running all the way, in the cold winter, Ligu and they were running sweating profusely.
There were nine of them, and they carried four buckets of mountain spring water.
Ligu and the others carried the mountain spring water to the side of the hole, and Ligu asked, "Master, what is the irrigation method?"
