If you want to find the original chili peppers, you have to find the caveman Maya. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

To find a cave, of course, in the mountains.

However, it is the border that crosses the border and enters the coastal plain of Guatemala, not the mountains.

Fang Hong did not go east to the mountains at the first time, but went west to the coastal plains.

Just over a cliff more than ten meters high, there are rare coastal Mayan buildings, and further inland is a flat forest with the pyramid of Quetzalcoatl, the Temple of the Celestials, and the tombs of the kings of the most glorious era of the Maya.

Since you want to choose a route, of course, you should go to the coast first, and then go all the way to the mountains, after all, this is so close, you can also put the main event raw peppers in the back.

But as soon as he arrived at the coast, looking at the two Mayan buildings that were not many tourists from a distance, Fang Hong was stunned.

"Mexico once had the world's only ancient Mayan seaside town, but it was destroyed by the arrival of some people. ”

Actually, more of the myths about the Maya are in Mexico, or rather, the best known things are in Mexico, because we don't have diplomatic relations with Guatemala.

It is rumored that the capital of Mexico was once a large Mayan city underneath, and it was known as the Golden City with endless treasures.

The people of the Maya just retreated, and didn't their IQ get lower, they were really made of gold, and they could still stay where they were and wait for the wind and sand to bury them?

Only two stone rooms remained in that seaside city, and the rest were turned into rubble.

Here, too, there are two buildings, but there are only two buildings in the first place, which have not been destroyed.

"Do you know why Mexico once had an ancient seaside city, but El Salvador, the birthplace of the Maya, and Guatemala, the ruling center of the Maya's most glorious era, did not, the reason is at sea. ”

A wave that definitely exceeds the height of the cliff face, surging wildly, the white wave line seems to be advancing from the horizon, and the left and right ends, there is no edge in sight.

It's not some amazing super wave, it's not the kind of adventurer, the best surfer, it's a devastating disaster.

A surfer who enters the wave from one spot and then rushes out of the tail of the wave is a complete challenge.

However, there is no one in the world who can challenge this wave.

Because this wave is called, a tsunami.

Tsunami is a destructive wave produced by submarine earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, submarine landslides or meteorological changes, the wave speed of the tsunami is as high as 700~800 kilometers per hour, and it can cross the ocean within a few hours; the wavelength can reach hundreds of kilometers, it can travel thousands of kilometers and the energy loss is very small; in the vast ocean, the wave height is less than one meter, but when it reaches the shallow water area of the coast, the wavelength decreases and the wave height increases sharply, up to tens of meters, forming a "water wall" containing huge energy.

Tsunamis are mainly controlled by the topography of the seabed, the geometry of the coastline and the characteristics of the waves, and the roaring waves and ice walls repeat every few minutes or tens of minutes, destroying the embankments, flooding the land, and taking life and property, which is extremely destructive. Tsunami areas around the world are roughly consistent with seismic zones. There are about 260 destructive tsunamis recorded worldwide, with an average of about one in six or seven years. Earthquakes and tsunamis occur in the Pacific Rim region for about 80 per cent.

"There are many types of tsunamis. These include tsunamis caused by the descent and rise of the earth's crust, as well as distant-sea tsunamis and local tsunamis. ”

Tsunamis caused by changes in the earth's crust are absolutely catastrophic and sweep everything, but they can be detected, such as the tsunami caused by the decline of the earth's crust, which will cause the coast to ebb in the early days.

Anyone who knows the ocean knows that there are one or two ebb and flow tides in a day, and the time is fixed, and if there is an inexplicable low tide that does not fit the time, it is not caused by the gravitational pull of the moon, but a tsunami.

Conversely, a tsunami caused by the rise of the earth's crust will be like a high tide at the beginning of the day.

The high-sea tsunami is a very special kind, such as the Chile earthquake, the tsunami can cross the entire Pacific Ocean and make landfall in Japan.

And the most terrifying is the last one with the least power.

The cause of the local tsunami is the offshore earthquake, the tsunami caused by the suddenness, which is unpredictable and there is no way to retreat accordingly.

Fortunately, this time, there are no waves of tens of meters, otherwise it would be easy to push into the land for several kilometers.

The wave of this tsunami was 18 meters high and the speed was 500 kilometers per hour.

"This tsunami is supposed to be caused by an offshore earthquake, and it should be related to a major earthquake, but I don't know if it was caused by that earthquake or another aftershock. ”

The truth of the matter is simple, there was an aftershock at sea, and the distance was not felt on land, so there was no warning for this tsunami.

Eighteen meters, eight meters higher than the cliff wall on the coast, rushed back, Fang Hong turned around and ran: "I'm Cao, if this is hit, the bones of the whole body will be broken cleanly!"

"That's why there are no Mayan ruins on the coast of Guatemala and El Salvador, the Mayans are not stupid enough to live in a place where they can be slapped to death by water at any time, and even if they are so stupid, they are also photographed to death, so in the country of volcanoes, there are no ancient ruins in the coastal sea. ”

Fang Hong jumped up the stone mountain, which was not very high, but far more than eight meters.

This position is higher and you can see more clearly.

The gray-white Mayan ruins glow white in the sun, the white waves look strange in the sunlight approaching the setting sun, and the golden wave lines distinguish the boundary between the tsunami and the sky.

The waves propelled and crashed on the shore in an instant.

"Bang!" was deafening, ten times the sound that Fang Hong had ever felt under the waterfall.

It's not a beach to climb up, it's a rocky cliff, and the tsunami is like thousands of trains hitting the mountain at full speed.

The feeling of an instantaneous tremor is not at all the same as an earthquake.

"Brother Gun is really a moldy god, I actually saw a tsunami?"

Have you ever seen the sea water bounce back to land like a flood?

Fang Hong looked at the scene in front of him, as if he had seen the scene of a flood after a certain big river burst its banks.

After coming ashore, the water is not so fast, but it appears extremely turbid, like mud.

When the first wave of the wave hit the shore, it stirred up a big wave, but it did not rush ashore, but the second and third waves were exaggerated.

Especially in the third wave, a wall of waves that was evident came ashore and was menacing.

I don't know if it lost its follow-up momentum, and it slowed down after going ashore, like the feeling of a flood flowing through a gentle area.

However, it wasn't until the sea water approached the stone mountain that Fang Hong felt that it was fast.

It seemed slow before, but it was all because of the illusion of being far away.

The sea seems to spread directly from the foothills of the rocky mountains.

"So, look at those two sturdy Mayan ruins, you don't have to look at them, I guess it's their Tanah Lot or Water Temple. ”

Unlike the gods, the god of the sea did not leave a name, probably because they felt that the god of the sea was not suitable for their wave and was not friendly to them, so they didn't want to think of a kind name for him.

As the saying goes, the water washed the Dragon King Temple.

The sea likes to be powerful, so people build temples on the coast, and you can't even destroy your own temples, right?

In fact, there's an interesting wisdom in this.

If a 1,000-kilometre stretch of coastline is inhabited by a lot of people, these people have built a temple, a 100-kilometre temple.

Time has passed, ten years have passed, nine of them have been flooded, and one is still there, do you think these people would not know where to live?

The popular saying is that those nine are all fake dragon gods, and this one is true.

The god said, "God allows you to live in this place, and you can't and don't accept offerings in other places."

The ruler said that this stupid god, his own temple is also rushing, and he is so cruel to himself, Lao Tzu will not provoke it.

Everything that the ancestors of history did is meaningful, don't think that modern science is so awesome, the so-called practice produces true knowledge, the so-called time is the only criterion for testing the truth, and the temple is the result of practice, and there is no need for science to explain.
