The wind and sand swept by, and everyone crouched behind the camels unable to move, and there was a terrible whistling sound in their ears, and the darkness around seemed to be the end of the day, and the sand and gravel hit the body quickly, and there were bursts of pain.

In the face of the forces of nature, people seem so small, and many timid people have even begun to wonder if they are going to die in this place like this.

The wind and sand lasted for half an hour, and then it gradually faded away, and the surroundings gradually returned to a clear place, and everything calmed down.

Everyone gently shook off the dust on their bodies, slowly got up and looked around, and they all had a feeling of seeing the blue sky through the clouds and mist.

With a sigh of relief, everyone's eyes were on Salmuhammad, but they didn't want to, at this time he was looking to the side with a shocked face, and everyone looked at him suspiciously, and it immediately froze.

Not far from everyone, there was still a sand dune, but now the sand pile has been carried away by the strong wind, leaving a huge crater, and just inside the pit, a tall building appears, looking down from above, it is dozens of meters high.

Although the platform is badly damaged everywhere and many places have collapsed, from the preserved parts, you can still imagine how magnificent the original magnificent scene was.

"Sure enough, the ruins of the Hanging Gardens are here!" Salmuhammad's face gradually became excited, and he kept muttering: "Usually buried by yellow sand, only when the wind and sand are blowing, will it be revealed!" ”

Hearing Sal himself say that this is the target of the search, everyone present couldn't help but cheer in unison, this is a historical moment after all, and the ruins of the Hanging Gardens have finally been discovered, and everyone present is a witness.

However, Chen Chen seemed a lot calmer, looked around the hole, and reminded casually: "Don't be too happy too early, look at the sand around you." ”

Reminded of this, everyone quickly turned their eyes to the area around the pothole, and saw that the soft sand flow was constantly sliding, like a stream of water converging to the point of the pothole, and gradually burying the huge pothole.

"It's going to be buried!" Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked at the same time.

"That's right, that's right......" Sal wiped the beads of sweat from his face, and his fat twitched with it: "The yellow sand is flowing, and it will soon be re-submerged here, and it will not reappear until the next time the wind and sand come, and the hanging garden will reappear, I have calculated before I came, we have an hour before it is completely submerged here, time is precious, let's go!" ”

As he spoke, he was the first to walk towards the pit, and the scholars followed, and it seemed that they had made a lot of preparations in advance.

Seeing this, the rest of the people stopped talking and followed.

When they came to the edge of the pit, they took out the hook they had brought, threw it at the tall platform in the center, hooked it tightly, and then looked for a solid ground, took out a long iron stake and drove it in, and tied the rope tightly.

Reaching out and pulling the rope to test its sturdiness, Sal, who had been waiting impatiently, couldn't wait to be the first to slide down the rope, it was hard to imagine that the bloated body, but the movements were extremely agile, like a fat orangutan, quickly slid to the top of the building.

Seeing that there were no accidents, except for a few people left to guard above, most of them also slid down.

When the people came to the top and stood still, they saw that Thrall had already looked around, and from time to time let out exclamations.

Chen Chen slowly walked to Sal's side and began to check the situation around him, and the more he looked, the more shocked he became.

The whole building gives him a very strange feeling, this is the hanging garden of the ancient Babylonian kingdom, the impression of the ancient civilization, should have an ancient color, such as beautifully carved stone walls and stone pillars, various patterns and sculptures, it looks like it should be full of magic.

But now this building, you can see the color of technology everywhere, the broken parts are exposed everywhere metal devices and various pipelines, even if there are carved patterns in many places, but they are not very exquisite artistic patterns, but hard straight lines, and the corners are very sharp, it doesn't look like a pattern, more like a circuit board.

"That's right...... That's right......" Sal reached out and stroked the patterns and metal, his eyes gradually flashing with fanatical brilliance: "This is it, exactly as I imagined, it's amazing!" ”

"Isn't that right?" Chen Chen glanced at him suspiciously, and asked, "The Kingdom of Babylon, how could these things be made?" This is something that only exists in science fiction, right? ”

"That's right!" Another man's voice came from the side: "The kingdom of Babylon is right, the world is wrong, the academic world is wrong!" ”

"Oh?" Chen Chen looked back and saw archaeologists and paleocivilists walking up, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"A long time ago, we had this judgment, the ancient civilization of the earth, science and technology have actually developed to a considerable level, and even have more advanced technology than now." The archaeologist looked at the metals and pipelines around him with a happy face: "Otherwise, where did the remaining ruins come from?" Is it possible to do such a grand project with manpower alone? ”

"Exactly!" Ancient civilization scholars are also excited to say: "The academic community usually locates the most glorious time of ancient civilization at about 5,000 years ago, but I don't think so, I consulted a large number of documents, and found that there was a huge discontinuity, which is thousands of years old, according to calculations, I came to a bold conclusion that the early ancient civilizations of the earth were not 5,000 years ago at all, and their most glorious time was actually about 10,000 years ago!" ”

"And!" After a pause, the ancient civilization scholar said categorically: "The ancient civilizations we know, including the ancient Babylonian civilization, the ancient Mayan civilization, etc., are all civilization systems that have developed to a considerable stage in biotechnology and mechanical technology, and they are a semi-biological and semi-mechanical civilization!" ”

A half-living and half-machine civilization?

As soon as this conclusion came out, Chen Chen's eyes couldn't help but widen in astonishment.

"Hehehe, maybe you don't believe it." At this moment, Sal seemed to have finished checking, and said with a smile on the side: "It is indeed a half-biological and half-mechanical civilization, just like what was found on Mars, and the situation here has fully proved this." ”

"Mars?"

Hearing this sensitive word, Chen Chen was stunned again, and his eyes changed when he looked at Salmuhammad.

This Arab prophet really can't be underestimated, he even knows what is going on Mars.

How much more does he know? Or is there anything else he doesn't know?

"Hehehe......" However, Sal didn't seem to care about Chen Chen's opinion of himself, he waved his hand easily at the moment, and then walked towards the passage leading to the bottom: "Time is not much, friends, let's go down and have a look." ”

After being reminded, everyone reacted and hurriedly followed.

The lighting of the whole interior is not good, and when you walk into the passage, you feel dark, and as everyone continues to descend, the light becomes more and more dim, as if you are stepping into a deep black hole, and gradually you can't see anything.

So, the attendants took out torches and lit them one after another, illuminating the surroundings.

And when everyone saw the scene around them, they were shocked again.

The whole interior is a huge space without division, except for some stairs and rooms on the four walls, the center is empty, and all kinds of large installations can be seen everywhere, but because of the age, it is really difficult to see the original appearance.

But that doesn't stop people from imagining what it used to be.

Several scholars hurriedly took out their cameras to take pictures, looking excited.

"Amazing, isn't it, but that's all!" Seeing that Chen Chen seemed to be calmer, Sal couldn't help laughing: "You must be thinking that even if the ancient civilization develops to that extent, in the end, it will still be impossible to escape destruction. ”

"I'm actually thinking about ......" Chen Chen glanced back at the other party: "How do you know about things on Mars." ”

"Hehehe, you know," Sal smiled and shook his head: "Magician, you have to hide your secret to look magical, if you tell the mystery of magic, no one will watch him perform, you better leave me a bite to eat." ”

"It's good!" Chen Chen naturally understood this truth, and smiled faintly at the moment, no longer asking about this topic.

Considering that time was tight, several scholars hurriedly took some photos, and then the group continued down the stairs to the bottom floor.

"It's amazing...... Looking at everything around them, the eyes of several scholars were full of fanaticism, and their fists kept waving: "We put forward such an idea many years ago, but because it goes against the traditional understanding, no one wants to believe us, everyone thinks we are crazy, nervous, and deviant!" ”

"But it turns out that the world is wrong, we are right, we are right, hahaha!"

Seeing this scene, Chen Chen couldn't help but feel some sympathy for a few people.

They were full of knowledge and enthusiasm, and they were originally full of ideals, but because they violated tradition, they were ostracized by the defenders, ignored, and under great pressure.

And now for them, it is undoubtedly the best reward. The sullen breath that had been suppressed for many years in my heart also poured out at this moment.

While thinking about this, everyone finally came to the bottom of the entire interior space.

Maybe it's because when I came down all the way, I had seen too many surprising things, but when I actually came here, everyone didn't react much, and it seemed that they had become accustomed to it.

At that moment, they scattered and looked at each other, looking for something valuable.

"Actually, there's another question that makes me wonder......" While checking, Sal frowned slightly: "Hanging Garden, Hanging Garden, but this place, there is nothing that can reflect the garden, all you can see is cold biological machinery." ”

"I think I've found the answer to this question......" Chen Chen's voice came from the side.
