Chapter 119: The Story of the Mural
From the left, the first mural is a tribal hunting and weaving depiction, with men and women having their own division of labor.
The second mural depicts the tribe in the moonlight, worshipping a stone statue of an animal. This animal looks more like a snake, but it has wings on its back, flies through the fog, has sharp fangs in its mouth, and a scarlet snake letter pokes out of it, and a pair of eyes are extremely expressive, which makes people feel a sense of intimidation at a glance.
Su Yue couldn't see what kind of animal this was, so she asked Qingyang, "Do you see what this is?" ”
Qingyang muttered, "I seem to have seen this pattern in a book when I was a child, well, it seems to be called a snake." ”
"Teng Snake? Isn't it amazing? ”
Qingyang said, "Yes, Teng Snake is said to be one of the divine beasts under Nuwa Niangniang's seat. I'm not sure if it is. ”
I'm not sure if I dare to love this.
Su Yue missed her almighty Lord Shenmu very much at this time, but it was a pity that her Lord Shenmu had already taken the Earth Soul Milk and was sleeping heavily, so she was afraid that she would not be able to answer her questions.
She then looked at the third mural, which had a vision. Under the moonlight, people were dancing the sacrificial dance around the stone statue of the snake, and suddenly the moonlight shone on the two eyes of the snake, and the sky-high light rose and illuminated the whole earth.
The fourth painting made Su Yue even more surprised.
According to the meaning of this painting, after the vision, the miracle appeared, the oracle appeared, and the people of this tribe gained magical powers, especially the people who were illuminated by the red light coming out of the eyes of the serpent, and the tribe was called the messenger of the gods, and the people who were illuminated by the red light were worshipped as the head of the tribe.
In the fifth painting, the tribe began to grow slowly, subduing many tribes with that magical power, and then began to build cities.
Su Yue recalled that the deserted city she saw now seemed to have the shadow of the city in the mural, but the city in the mural was even more magnificent and magnificent than now.
From the mural, you can see the prosperity and momentum of the past.
The sixth and seventh paintings are a group of murals, on which some trivial matters of daily life are depicted, the original tribal lord has become the lord of the city, respected and loved by everyone, he leads the people under his rule to devout the statue of the snake, and his own power is getting stronger and stronger.
The eighth is also a group of murals, which says that the stars are changing, the years are changing, the city is constantly expanding outward, and the city lord has also begun to pass down from generation to generation, well, it seems to have been passed down many times, and each city lord has maintained his youthful appearance until he died.
The ninth, also a set of frescoes, shows a young lord who had just been ordained and began to inspect the tribes under his rule, and while inspecting the tribes, he met a woman and brought her back to the city.
The tenth is a grand scene of the young lord marrying a woman, and everyone cheers and toasts their lord.
The eleventh depicts a woman walking in the garden, and in the shadow a man is looking at the lord's new wife, leaning forward in obsession.
The twelfth painting is another group of paintings.
The city lord went out of the city for a while, and said goodbye to his wife with warmth, and the lady said goodbye to the city lord, but turned around and saw the man appear in front of him.
The man's actions seemed to be asking for joy, and the city lord's wife struggled to resist, but in the end she could not defeat the man, and died by hitting her head against the pillar to protect her innocence.
The man panicked.
In the thirteenth painting, the lord of the city came in a hurry when he got the news, and was grief-stricken to see his wife's death. The man slipped into the temple, gouged out the eyes from the stone statue of the serpent, and fled in a hurry.
The fourteenth painting is due to the ineffectiveness of the statue of the city lord's protector, and the snake is angry and punished. The heavens changed, the sun was hidden and the moon was hidden, the wind was sadistic, the sky rained rain, and it spread into waterlogging, and the mysterious power of the messenger of the gods led by the city lord disappeared overnight, and all of them grew old overnight, and their faces were no longer there.
The whole city was in a panic.
In the fifteenth painting, the surrounding tribes took the opportunity to invade and kill all those who resisted, and the lord of the city and some of them hid in the temple, kneeling and crying for forgiveness and protection from the snake.
The sixteenth painting shows that the gate of the temple was closed, and the people of the surrounding tribes were not allowed to enter, but they were about to set fire to it, but it was extinguished by heavy rain, and the people of the surrounding tribes had to give up.
They took possession of the castle lord's palace, but it was not long before many of them died inexplicably, and the rest of the people were terrified, ran to the temple and knelt down to beg for forgiveness from the serpent, and then withdrew from the city.
After that, no one came out of the temple, and no one came into the city, and finally the city became a deserted city.
At this point, the murals on the stone walls of the entire hall were all seen by Su Yue and Qingyang.
Su Yue breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had just melted into the murals, and it seemed that she could feel the strong emotions coming from these murals.
From the initial peace, piety, joy, pride and happiness to the anger, sadness, fear and despair that followed, she was deeply touched.
She seemed to have been brought into that ancient city, feeling the joys and sorrows of the people in the city.
Su Yue sighed lightly.
Qingyang Qi said, "Little Senior Sister, why did you suddenly sigh?" ”
Su Yue was stunned, "I'm lamenting the insignificance and fragility of mortals, and if God is angry, all will be destroyed." ”
So is the path of cultivating immortals a glimmer of life that mortals earn for themselves?
Is it just to be more comfortable and free in the world?
And she, Su Yue, is to pursue this supreme avenue, to be at ease, to be free.
Su Yue only heard a soft sound in her heart, and her mood was further broken through here, she was stunned, and after a while, she showed a relieved smile.
Once her state of mind is raised, I believe she will soon be able to break through the eleventh stage of Qi refining.
Qingyang saw that Su Yue was suddenly silent, knowing that she might be in the midst of enlightenment, so he didn't bother, and silently protected Su Yue on the side.
Seeing Su Yue smile at this time, Qingyang also smiled happily and asked, "Little Senior Sister, we just finished reading the mural, where are we going next?" What exactly is this hall? ”
Su Yue shook her head, "I don't know either." Let's go find it first, maybe this is their temple, otherwise how could it be so well preserved? Let's take a look inside, and maybe we can see the stone statue of the snake. ”
As soon as her voice fell, she heard an old voice answer, "The little girl is indeed smart, yes, this is indeed a temple." ”
Su Yue and Qingyang were taken aback, hurriedly turned around to greet the comer, and shouted, "Who is it?" ”
