Chapter 1746: Into the City
The closer it was to the ancient city of Blackwater, the more anxious the big cat became.
Compared to Wukong and Lightning, who have been raised by humans since childhood, the big cat should be regarded as a pure beast, and its perception of unknown fear is stronger than those two, and it seems that it is reluctant to enter the ancient city of Blackwater.
Although he knew this, Zhang Tianyuan would not look back, even if he did not have the sensitivity of a beast like a big cat, but he also knew that this ancient city of black water would definitely not be too safe, after all, along the way, he met the dead soldier and the terrible black water flower snake, this is definitely not an auspicious omen, say not worried, it is definitely fake, but since Tang Sheng can get out alive, is he not as good as Tang Sheng?
Besides, this is the only chance to leave the island, and he is absolutely unwilling to let him give up like this.
Zhang Tianyuan wants to leave the big cat outside, in this way, in case something really happens, there are also "people" outside, but the big cat's initial fear is gone at this moment, it doesn't seem to want Zhang Tianyuan to take risks, but if Zhang Tianyuan has to take risks, then it can only sacrifice its life to accompany the gentleman, and follow it.
Seeing that the big cat meant this, Zhang Tianyuan couldn't help but be a little moved, this guy is really human, he is no longer reluctant, if he wants to go in, he will go in, and if he wants to stay outside, he will stay outside, after all, if he goes in, he will not be able to ensure the safety of these three guys, if it is really because of his own compulsion that leads to the death of the big cat, then he will inevitably feel guilty for a lifetime.
"Wukong, Lightning, what are you two going to do, do you want to go in with me?" Zhang Tianyuan decided to democratize once. Once inside, it could be a demon cave. It could be a dead end, and it's not surprising that anything happens. He knew that Wukong and Lightning understood what he meant, and whether this followed him in or not depended on the minds of these two guys, and he would definitely not force it.
"Mmmmmm
Wukong's meaning is very clear, wherever Zhang Tianyuan goes, it will follow him, and when its last master died, he secretly went to die and deceived it and lightning. So it doesn't want to be like that, and it doesn't want to be a dead corpse after this master leaves, and this kind of thing is really sad for it.
"Whew. ”
The lightning bit Zhang Tianyuan's clothes with his teeth, biting very hard, biting out the teeth marks on the clothes, looking like this, it was impossible for it to stay outside.
Get. In that case, let's live together and die together.
Zhang Tianyuan didn't say anything more, after arriving outside the ancient city of Heishui. I checked what I was carrying, including weapons, food, and water, which was a must. It's impossible to know if you'll be able to find food once you've entered.
Because you have to bring enough things, there is naturally a lot of weight on this body. Fortunately, these three guys have all gone through Zhang Tianyuan's natural energy to comb their bodies these days, and their strength has increased a lot. So even if you bring fifty or sixty pounds of something, it's nothing.
Zhang Tianyuan has never been a soldier, but he often goes out, and he has to take a lot of things, and it is common to carry forty or fifty pounds of things on his back, plus his own body is much stronger than ordinary people, with great strength and strong endurance, so he simply brought more to reduce Wukong's weight as much as possible.
After the things were confirmed, this time Zhang Tianyuan opened the way in front, after all, he has a fairly rich archaeological knowledge, and he can deal with any changes in time, but the big cat will not work, if the big cat runs around in front, it will kill him.
Do you know why tomb robbers don't want to bring dogs? It's because this dog doesn't know what kind of secret locks are at all, and if you really go in, it's just running around, and if you don't do well, you'll be shut down with the ghost.
Zhang Tianyuan dared to take the three of them with the big cats, mainly because he had the local spirit and could communicate with the big cats and tell them what to do and what not to do.
The ancient city of Heishui is quite spectacular from a distance, but when you really get closer, you will find that it is really not as good as you imagined, the city gate that was supposed to be wooden has long since decayed, and even the city gate building has collapsed because of disrepair.
There should have been a moat around this city, but now there is, but it has been completely filled with plants, and it is filthy and smelly, if he hadn't put on a gas mask in time, Zhang Tianyuan really felt that he would have been smoked to death.
Because the city gate has been blocked, there is no way to see the appearance of a door, so Zhang Tianyuan found a gap and walked in, the city is completely lifeless, it feels like a ghost town, the most outrageous thing is that the whole ancient city seems to be soaked in water, the water is estimated to be more than a meter deep, although it can't drown people, but you know, once there is water, it is difficult for you to judge where the water is deep, where the water is shallow, if you encounter something sharp, or be bitten by a snake in the water, it will be miserable。
Of course, all this is not a problem for Zhang Tianyuan, because after entering the ancient city, Zhang Tianyuan turned on the perspective ability and the word finding trick at the same time, in this way, there is water and no water, it is the same for him, because he can easily see what is under the water, and he can easily avoid many dangers.
Seeing the patterns painted by Tang Sheng before, Zhang Tianyuan was very interested in this ancient city of Heishui, and felt that this place might be very good, because according to those drawings, there should be a very domineering palace here, but after coming in, it was simply disappointing, there was no palace, and there were no clean and tidy roads, it was all water-rain!
There were also a lot of rotten wood, brick shards, and some metal shards.
Treasure?
Don't think about it, Zhang Tianyuan never expected to find any treasures here, all he asked for was to find an escape channel that could lead to the outside here.
However, the passage was not seen, only the ruins and broken walls, just the dust left by history, no matter how prosperous it was in the past, but now, it is just a ruin.
If Li Mingguang knew about this place, he would probably be happy to come over and dig it, after all, such an ancient city is really rare, don't look at the ruins outside, but maybe there are good things inside.
This is also Zhang Tianyuan's idea, because he believes that Tang Sheng's paintings are definitely not groundless, let alone scribbled, maybe Tang Sheng has found a place that Zhang Tianyuan has not found yet, and he must continue to look for it.
Anyway, this city is very big, just look for it slowly, and I don't believe that I can't find hope.
There are many houses in the city, different styles, neither European style, nor Asian style, giving people the feeling that this should have been an international city, and the buildings in this city are also diverse, some styles are very similar to ancient India, some are more like ancient Greece, and some are more like the buildings of the Song Dynasty.
If this does not prove that this was once an international metropolis, then Zhang Tianyuan has nothing to say.
Heishui Ancient City is an extremely unfamiliar name, and Zhang Tianyuan only knew about it from Tang Sheng's album, but the question is how did Tang Sheng know it?
According to the description in Tang Sheng's album, there was a terrible natural disaster here, which caused the entire city to be submerged, with countless casualties, and basically, from that time on, this so-called cosmopolitan city was quietly isolated from the world, or disappeared.
Many ships have visited this place many times, but all they see is the ocean. Maybe it was the sea level that fell later, or because the island floated, so that this ancient city reappeared in front of people, but unfortunately, a large part of it still sank underneath, I don't know if there is anyone, but what Zhang Tianyuan sees now must be just the tip of the iceberg.
Although I don't quite believe what Tang Sheng said, from the perspective of on-site traceology, what Tang Sheng said is mostly right, because the situation here is very consistent with what she said, and it is almost completely certain that this place has indeed been swallowed up by a big marine disaster.
If there is anything wrong, it is that so far, Zhang Tianyuan has only seen a few dried corpses floating underwater, not as many as he imagined.
According to Tang Sheng's statement, there are tens of thousands of people in this city, and it is absolutely impossible for that corpse to be like this.
Maybe it's because of his background in archaeology, or because he is more interested in antiques, even if there seems to be nothing valuable in this ancient city, Zhang Tianyuan still looks at it with relish.
Every wall, every door, even every brick or wood, is an interesting story and history, others can't see it, but he Zhang Tianyuan can see it, otherwise, his books are really reading into the stomach of a dog.
However, Wukong's cry reminded him that this is not the time for archaeology, the most important thing at the moment is to find clues that can leave the island, as long as he can leave here, maybe when he will be able to come back, and at that time, he can carry out archaeological work with peace of mind.
"You little guy is smart, you didn't forget to remind me, but this hellish place is too dark and damp, what I want to do most now is to find a clean place and bask in the sun, alas, it's a pity, this place really can't see any traces of the sun except for palm-sized spots, it's like a demon realm imprisoned in the maze of the forest." ”
Zhang Tianyuan praised Wukong, and then chose a relatively high place to look around, most of the places are similar to the place where he stands, only one place is a little different, that is the south part of the ancient city of Heishui, that place feels that all the buildings are better preserved than here, and it is also more luxurious.
