33.Chapter 33: Make a Dragon!
It is very difficult to see all the carvings on the stone walls in this underground palace without a strong light source, and I swept my eyes and found that a stone wall was painted with a very strange pattern, and I seemed to be able to understand something. The stone wall of the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info seems to record that the ancients did things that make people scratch their heads in a special altar.
Because there is a small figure on the stone wall, it is extremely simple, a circle and a 'big', which I can still recognize, and the reason why this stone wall catches my attention is that I can probably see something.
The whole stone wall in front of me seems to tell the story of a king, who sits high in the hall, with a fierce face commanding a group of people under the steps, and under the steps seems to be a group of soldiers, they are holding weapons in their hands, and the strange thing is that these soldiers use ropes in pairs and all kinds of animals, there seem to be many patterns of deer, fanged tigers, there are monsters that look like hideous pythons, and there are people holding weapons against a big bird in the sky, and other strange pictures, they drag these animals to a large abyss cave, It's like some kind of sacrifice. There are also many incomprehensible characters and patterns on the stone wall, and I probably saw this picture.
The carving of the whole stone wall is extremely cumbersome and complicated, and it seems to describe the picture of fighting with some monsters, and there is a pattern of a hideous animal painted on the top of the king's head, and it is impossible to see whether it is a human or a ghost. ”
"I don't understand."
I told him about what I saw, and he fell into deep thought, looking at the patterns on the stone wall from time to time, and then pointed to the hole in the stone wall: "Maybe this is the ghost cave we are in, but I don't understand what they are doing with these animals?" ”
I whispered, "Maybe it's some kind of ritual, the ancients were very superstitious, there are some living sacrifices, children sacrifice to the god of the river, animals sacrifice to the god of the mountain, etc., maybe they are just sacrificing to the god of their faith." ”
Shchedrin shook his head and dragged his chin and said, "It's not like, it's not like a sacrifice, you look here." Pointing to a pattern on the stone wall depicting several soldiers holding weapons and cutting off the head of a strange creature in its cage, I asked, "What is this?" Shchedrin pointed to several other patterns and said, "Do you look at these again?" "I took the fire fold one by one, depending on what I realized, the soldiers on the pattern on the pattern were dismembering a certain part of those animals, they cut off the horns of the deer, pulled out the fangs of the tiger, went to the head of the snake and the tail of the snake and left the belly of the snake, cut the claws of the eagle of the bird, such a strange pattern, I suddenly felt strange, because the parts of these animals were broken down and put together made me feel familiar and strange, and then I looked at the hideous beast statue above the king's head above the palace, and instantly understood, I looked at Shchedrin in amazement, and the guess in my heart was a little hard for me to imagine.
Shchedrin pointed to the hideous beast above the king's head and said, "You must have guessed it, yes, they are making dragons!" ”
"Dragon-making !!"
If I hadn't experienced everything in the ghost cave, I might have thought that what was described on this stone wall was just a pattern, but after being in the ghost cave, especially after seeing the grafting technique of the witch Gu, I believed that these patterns were all recorded.
Generally, no one has ever seen a dragon, and it is just a belief and a virtual existence in people's hearts. Wen Yiduo said in his famous article "Fu Xi Kao" that the totem of the dragon "is a virtual creature that only exists in the totem and does not exist in the biological world, because it is a synthesis of many different totems"; It is "the result of the annexation and assimilation of many weak units by the snake totem".
However, the description of the pattern on the stone wall made me doubt the authenticity of the dragon's existence, and the stone wall map could not tell what era it was, but I felt more and more that this dragon existed in this ghost cave.
Then I took the fire fold to look at a few nearby stone walls, although some could not understand, but I saw a painting on the stone wall, Shibi Mountain painted a lot of villains, they seemed to be in different places, the most horrified thing to me was that those people were busy with iron locks and chains, the ancients were actually smelting those huge iron locks, and on the stone wall I saw some villains transporting huge iron locks to a huge abyss. With only two stone walls, Xie Delin and I were already shocked, the ancients were actually making dragons, and they were in this ghost cave!!
However, there are many unintelligible murals around here, as well as patterns similar to gossip under my feet, and I walked around carefully only to find that it was not a gossip pattern at all, but a huge and winding oriental dragon! The whole dragon picture is coiled into a huge disk, the dragon's head is in the middle, the dragon's tail is into a plate, the dragon's scales are like a ridge, the momentum is like a rainbow, lifelike, just staring at the dragon-shaped picture I can feel the ancient breath coming to my face, especially the dragon's eyes, giving people a kind of eye-eye, standing in front of him will feel like an ant as small,
I took a deep breath, if the depictions on these stone walls are true, then this ghost cave is too shocking, make a dragon! The ancients were actually making dragons!
"Anyway, at least we haven't seen the 'dragon' until now, but we finally know what this ghost cave does, and maybe this corridor is where the truth lies." Shchedrin said.
I saw that there were no pictographs on the other stone walls, and it was not something the two of us could do to decipher these ancient inscriptions, and I didn't even know when this ghost cave appeared after studying it for so long.
For some reason, when I looked at the dark porch, I suddenly felt a strange feeling in my heart, which was very similar to the feeling when I stood at the bottom of the cliff and looked at the blood-colored waterfall on the cliff, and I always felt as if something was pulling me, as if there was some kind of voice calling me, in short, it gave me a strange feeling.
"Captain, it seems that we have no choice but the porch hole!" I said, grandpa and Ye Yinlong have been gone for almost an hour, and there is no news at all so far, and I am not much safer in the underground palace than in the corridor cave, as long as the rattan bag in the pool floats, there will definitely be a mutant lamprey in the corridor cave, which is extremely dangerous. It's not always that good luck to hide in a corner and be fine, everything can happen in the ghost cave dungeon.
