Chapter Seventy-Four: The Kingdom of Zhangxiong
Zhou Yuanhang came over, asked the Tibetans to speak one by one, and after listening to the words of several Tibetans, he finally understood, and said to Li Hao: "They were hired as guides, and the one who could speak Chinese was the one who was killed, because those Han people wanted to dig a hole at the foot of the vault silver city, which was not allowed by the gods, so the interpreter quarreled with them, and threatened the tomb robbers to go back and tell the people of the government, which led to the murder." But the mountain god heard their prayers and sent us to save them and protect the holy place. ”
Li Hao nodded, it seems that the goal of the old man through the mountain is this vault silver city, how can he do it if he wants to dig a hole in this frozen soil? Unless there are large digging tools, there must be something else that you don't know.
Li Hao asked Zhou Yuanhang to translate and let the Tibetans go home, so that they could give them the equipment left by the tomb robbers in addition to food, and tactfully told the Tibetans not to talk about the matter after they returned, because these tomb robbers were brought to the holy land by a few of them, and they would be spurned by other Tibetans, and saying it might attract other tomb robbers.
When the Tibetans heard that the equipment of the tomb robbers had been returned to them, they forgot all about the fright, pulled the yaks one after another, loaded them with equipment, and went home happily.
In an instant, the tomb robbers and Tibetans were all gone, and there were only four people and one wolf dog left in the desert-like wilderness, because their food consumption was amazing, especially the little wolf, each meal was the food of three adults, so Li Hao only thought of leaving the food on the tomb robbers now, and simply collected it, enough for them to cope with it for more than a month, so much food could not be carried on their backs, so several people found a towering place to pile up the food as a reserve food, fortunately, the weather here was dry and cold, It will not deteriorate in the first half of the year.
Qiangzi picked up the two jet-black short sticks that Qingteng was still holding in his hand and took them in his hand to observe carefully, they looked black and shiny, three points darker than ebony, and there was no sense of weight in his hand, this is not metal, but it can withstand Li Hao's full slash, it is really incomprehensible, it must be a good thing, and it is easy to put it into the backpack.
Li Hao also came over at this time and asked Qiangzi: "Brother Qiang, can you fight someone like Xiang Qingteng?" Qiangzi replied without thinking: "I can't fight at all, although his strength is not as strong as yours, but it has already exceeded the limit that can be achieved by training, but I can't figure out why Huofeng is also one of the three masters but his strength is so far apart?" And what Qingteng said just now, he didn't dare to provoke Huofeng. ”
After Li Hao listened, he couldn't understand many questions, if Qingteng was with the help of Jin Doucai, but his strength should be far greater than now, and if he said that Huofeng was not easy to mess with, forget it, he won't think about it, anyway, he won today.
After all this, the four of them looked at the vault silver city in front of them, which is the legendary Zhangxiong capital city in Tibet, located at the top of Kardong Mountain at an altitude of 4,400 meters, with an area of more than 10 million square meters. Because most of the buildings here are built by the mountain, and the higher the more the status is lofty, so this capital is no exception, but no matter how brilliant the building can not withstand the destruction of the years, the original brilliant and majestic capital has almost not seen a little bit of its majesty of the year, the occasional visible ruins seem to still tell the world about the glory of the year, and now it can only be sighed by the world.
Under this abandoned capital, Li Hao didn't know what the old man in the mountains was trying to discover, how could he dig on the perennial permafrost without large-scale excavation equipment? What is the connection between the bronze medal and Sun Bin here?
Qiangzi looked at Li Hao, who was looking at the mountain peak and thinking, knowing what he was thinking now, he walked up to him and said, "Let's go up to this peak first, see that this mountain peak really looks like a pyramid, and the surrounding area is relatively empty, let's go up?" Let's see, maybe you can get something. ”
Li Hao nodded, said hello and took the lead in getting up. Along the way, you can see some huge stones scattered on the hillside, these stones form a flat cuboid, which should have been used as a stone for construction at that time, such huge stones can imagine how majestic the house was at that time, and what did the ancestors here create such a brilliant civilization in this barren land more than 2,000 years ago? None of this is known.
The four of them finally climbed to the top of the mountain, and after resting for a while, how many people stood up and walked around? Look, the desertified wilderness looks extremely mysterious under the light of the setting sun, the whole area is glowing with golden light, and the feeling of desolation and loneliness comes to everyone, and everyone has a different shock when they see it.
"Come and see, there's something over here." Zhou Yuanhang pointed to a wilderness in front of him and said, several people looked in the direction he pointed out, and found that there were many neatly arranged stones on a desert, scattered on the surface of the ground one by one.
Li Hao observed it carefully and said: "It should be an ancient canal, which led water to that plain from that side, and now these stones are arranged together to form a huge canal." The area that was originally leveled may have been the farmland at that time. ”
Zhou Yuanhang heard this and said: "Water canal, how is this possible, could it be that the irrigation technology was mastered here two or three thousand years ago?" And why is there a large area of farmland? In the face of Zhou Yuanhang's questioning, Li Hao didn't know how to answer, could it really be that the people from the Central Plains brought irrigation technology here? With the advanced irrigation technology at that time, it was difficult for the Zhangzhung Kingdom not to be the king of Xzang.
"Hey, Li Hao, come over and see, are there some caves on those high cliffs over there? Why doesn't it look natural? "There are also some new discoveries on the hadron side, which I couldn't see at first, but under the light of the setting sun, the angle of the light changed, and I found that the cliff was full of holes.
Li Hao only discovered the secret of this cliff at this moment, why didn't he see it before? Under careful observation, these holes are by no means congenitally formed by weathering, and there are obvious traces of artificial excavation, so he nodded and said: "That's right, those should be artificially excavated, it is not early now, it seems that there will be a storm again later, we will rest here, and wait for tomorrow to pass." ”
Several people are indeed a little tired from climbing the mountain just now, if they want to go to the opposite side and climb the cliff at this time, they must have no physical strength, and when they hear that they can rest, everyone walks down for a while and drives to the middle of the mountain, and they are looking for a flat leeward place to set up tents.
