Mi Lu said on the phone: "The two holy wells in Chichen Itza dried up overnight, and there is a constant ...... of rain in the local area that is not in line with the weather forecast."

Ao Tang was taken aback and was stunned on the spot.

Although the weather forecast is not always accurate in real life, there is a problem with the constant occurrence of rain outside of the weather forecast! Isn't he himself an example of this? When he kept raining in Tien Nam Province, didn't it also cause the weather forecast to go wrong? Could it be that there is a similar kind on Chichen Itza's side? And the two holy wells dried up overnight, was the water pumped away by a mysterious force?

As the only remaining dragon clan, Ao Tang is of course a little lonely if he wants to say that he is lonely, but on the other hand, if another dragon clan appears, he may not be willing to see it, and his expression can't help but become solemn, and the importance of this matter has even exceeded the search for tortoiseshell and others to a certain extent.

Ao Tang took a breath and said to the phone: "Lulu, then I'll rush to check." ”

Mi Lu said: "Hey, wait a minute, it's not finished yet, don't be in a hurry, it's just morning in Mexico, what secret operations you want to do must be at night, and there is calm in every big event." ”

"Oh, haha, then you go on." Ao Tang was right to think about it, and gradually calmed down, and suddenly felt strange, "Lulu, how do you know?" Didn't I tell you to check these? Well, you're already busy, so take a break. ”

Mi Lu chuckled and said, "What do I have to be busy with, isn't it just going to the Internet?" ”

She now spends half of her class time reading military books, and the other half of her class time is still studying normally, after all, it is not like a zero score in the entrance exam at all, and now she only wants to pass the test and does not pursue scholarships.

In his spare time, his main work is to surf the Internet, search for the past in one county and one local forum, and collect information about the Dragon King Temple for Ao Tang.

"I really didn't think to look up any Mayan information, but I'm not the only one who bothered to help you." Mi Lu said slightly unpleasantly, "It was Yuanyuan who told me, as for Yuanyuan, how do you know, hum......"

Ao Tang smiled, Chen Yuanyuan's mind was more focused on his company, even if he had time, he would accompany Mi Lu to check the Dragon King Temple, this Maya's information should be Yu Zhiwei paying attention, and he couldn't be contacted after finding out, so he told Yuanyuan.

Mi Lu muttered: "Yu Zhiwei, this guy is always in private contact with Yuanyuan, in fact, if there is anything, you can contact me directly." ”

But she just said it, after all, Yu Zhiwei is familiar with Chen Yuanyuan and not her Milu.

Ao Tang smiled: "Isn't contacting Yuanyuan the same as contacting you, everyone is their own person." Hehe, maybe Zhiwei is afraid of being presumptuous, after all, you used to ......"

Mi Lu immediately snorted: "I didn't do anything before, only the two of them are sorry for me, and I don't have anything sorry for them, of course, the most sorry for me is still you." ”

"Okay, it's me who is wrong."

"It's good to know, so treat me well in the future, and never find me again. Okay, let's talk about you. ”

The mobile phone that Ao Tang just bought, there was not much electricity, and immediately made a long story short, Mi Lu accosted him, and when Ao Tang said that he was about to run out of power, he hurriedly shouted: "Then you must be careful when you go to Chichen Itza, but don't be reckless!" ”

Ao Tang said confidently: "Don't worry, Lulu, when this is done, I'll come back." ”

"Oh, anyway, give me a safe home. Uh, Yuanyuan was driven back to sleep by me, she actually wanted to accompany me all night and wait for the phone, hehe, it's only half past 11 o'clock in the evening in China now, she was tricked back by me to warm the bed, I'll go to her bed later, tell her your new news, don't worry, I will help you relay a few good words, Yu Zhiwei, you can do it yourself. ”…,

The phone hung up, Ao Tang listened to the beep, fantasized about the warm quilt, and couldn't help but be a little nervous. As for Yu Zhiwei's side, it's not too late to contact China when it's dawn.

Ao Tang's mind turned to Chichen Itza, a place name, the ruins of the Mayans. To get to Chichen Itza, it's usually from the Merida side, about a three-hour drive. There are many ruins in Chichen Itza, the most famous of which is the Temple of Quetzalcoatl, also known as the Mayan Pyramids and the Pyramid of Castillo.

In the lecture of the old professor at Guanghua University, there is a rather detailed description of this Quetzalcoatl Temple, which can be said to be an extremely majestic building, but although Ao Tang is interested in Quetzalcoatl, he is not very interested in this temple, because the temple was built between the 11th and 13th centuries AD.

If Ao Tang is not mistaken, Quetzalcoatl had already left the Mayans at that time, but in Mayan mythology, Quetzalcoatl said that he would eventually return, and perhaps because of this, the Mayan leaders of the 11th and 13th centuries spent huge manpower and material resources to build this pyramid to please the returning Quetzalcoatl. In this case, it is simply an architectural spectacle of mankind, and there will be no special mystical power.

What Ao Tang is really interested in is the three sacred wells of Chichen Itza in Mayan legends, two of which have always been in the eyes of humans, but now the news of Milu has been suddenly drained, and the other is the most mysterious holy well, which has never been found by modern people.

Ao Tang looked at the time, found a clothing store on the streets of Merida, bought two more suitable clothes, and bought a backpack, shoes, and hats, dressed as a tourist.

It was noon, and he tried Mexican-style food at a restaurant, and his only feeling was spicy. It's not that Ao soup can't be spicy, but the spicy food of Mexico makes him not very accustomed to it, and all kinds of strange things

Chili, all kinds of dishes and even candy, snacks, drinks are spicy, sure enough, it is worthy of being the birthplace of chili, is the world's first spicy country, eat Ao soup with tequila poured directly, it turned out that tequila is not spicy, and finally had to

Bought a few bottles of mineral water.

Eating and drinking, he was too lazy to take the shuttle, and directly called a taxi, the taxi driver was a bit international, probably to attract foreign tourists, so-so can speak English, Ao Tang does not bargain, all the way to Chichen Itza.

The driver didn't forget to remind Ao Tang before turning his head to leave: "Sir, there is a restaurant at the entrance of Chichen Itza, there is no inside, and it is very large, and it is slow to shop, you can buy some snacks to take with you." Also, if you come out halfway, you don't need to buy a ticket to go in again, the ticket can be used for 1 day, remember, it's 80 pesos. ”

"Thank you, friend."

Ao Tang waved his hand, bought a ticket at the entrance, and walked in leisurely. Samurai Temple, Tomb of the Priest, Observatory, Convent...... The ruins visited in the past are basically after the Spanish invasion of the Americas

The name, the Spanish invaders are uneducated barbarians, who like to mess with names, such as this nunnery, about the nuns', in fact, it is the government compound of the Mayan classical city era.

Among the many ruins, the most conspicuous and majestic is naturally the Temple of Quetzalcoatl, which was given a Spanish name by the Spanish barbarians: Castillo. Even after reading the description of the old professor's lecture manuscript, even if he was not interested in the Quetzalcoatl Temple, Ao Tang was still amazed by the architectural art of the ancients when he saw it with his own eyes.

The architecture of this pyramid also has many calendar coincidences, such as the steps that imply the number of 365 days of the week, and the steps on the north side of the pyramid can project the shape of Quetzalcoatl at sunrise and sunset on the spring equinox, autumn equinox, and sunset. It's a bit of a pity that it's not the vernal equinox today, but Ao Tang still saw the shape of Quetzalcoatl from the architecture, although it is not exactly in the form of a dragon, but there are indeed similarities. …,

And it's not exactly the same, it's not surprising, maybe this dragon came to the Americas, in order to fit the aesthetics of the Americans, and changed its wings? Anyway, some of the gods and monsters of that era were spells, and the changes in form were so good.

And not only Quetzalcoatl, there are more signs here to show the relationship with ancient China, such as the Maya people like jade as ancient China, for example, the Mayan script and the ancient Chinese script are also similar, both are hieroglyphs, and the style is very close.

Of course, Ao Tang looked at some of the words on the ruins, which he couldn't understand at all, he learned modern Chinese characters, which were simplified characters, and traditional characters could also be read, and some of the older seals were a little difficult, and the upper trace to the oracle bone inscription was complete

No more. What's more, the Mayan script is not an oracle bone inscription, after all, the writing is constantly evolving, if the Maya are really the remnants of the Yin Shang as some say, then even if they originally used the Yin Shang oracle bone inscription, it was not until the 11th century, 13 AD

The century has also been multiplied for two thousand and hundreds of years, and the oracle bone inscription on the land of China has evolved into traditional Chinese characters, so this branch of the Americas will naturally evolve beyond recognition.

Ao Tang was reminiscing about the ancient times in front of the Mayan text, when Lan Jia suddenly shouted, "Lord Dragon King, is this gossip?" Why is it so weirdly drawn? "But it came out to visit.

Ao Tang looked at the gossip that Lan Jia said, and first said, "This is the Mayan numerical system. He was stunned again, shook his head and said, "The so-called Mayan digital system is just the interpretation of these pictures after the Westerners eliminated the Mayan civilization, and what the Westerners said may not be right, and we should not be superstitious about them." ”

Ao Tang carefully looked at the "number system" engraved on the patterns, all the numbers only have three symbols, one is a circle, one is a point, one is a horizontal line, according to the interpretation of Westerners, the circle is 0, the point is 1, and the horizontal line is 5, for example, the number 15 is three horizontal lines, and the number 18 is three horizontal lines plus three points.

But Ao Tang thinks about Lan Jia's statement, it's really a bit of gossip, the horizontal line is yang, the point is yin, as for the circle? Ao Tang shook his head, if you don't feel right, you can't do it, "If you are born in Huainan, you will be orange, and if you are born in Huaibei, you will be orange",

It's just across the Huai River, if it's really the remnants of Yin Shang who brought gossip to the Americas, it is across the world's most vast Pacific Ocean, after thousands of years of evolution, the original gossip derived a strange system

It's all normal.

Ao Tang didn't think much about it anymore, even if the Mayans were really Yin merchants? The Mayan civilization has been wiped out by the barbaric Spaniards, and even if some of its descendants survive, they have long since integrated into the Western civilization system.

He came to the place where the most tourists came, and it was the place where the two holy wells were located, and the mouth of the wells was very large, and it was not an artificial well, but a natural dissolution well. Originally, the attraction of the holy well was not comparable to that of the pyramids, but it dried up overnight the other day

, it will inevitably arouse the curiosity of many tourists and come to see it. There is a tour group next to it, probably from an English-speaking country, the tour guide is holding an English explanation, and Ao Tang is also listening to it in the back.

"This well is the famous well of sacrifice, but it is not the Quetzalcoatl god Kukulkan who sacrifices to him, but another Mayan god in the lineage, the rain god Chuk, who is said to be one of the many faces of Kukulkan."

"When sacrifices are made, people throw jade, pottery, and incense into the well."

"At the end of the Maya period, perhaps because of natural and man-made disasters, the Mayans felt that they could not be protected by the gods, and in order to appear more religious, they began to sacrifice people alive and threw young men and women into the wells."

The tourists listened and discussed:

"Now that this well has dried up, why is there no jade underneath?"

"Clinton, are you interested in jade? Jade is nothing but stone! ”

"Of course I know, but I've heard that it's very valuable in Asia, and if you find jade, you can sell it to Asians."

"You are really dreaming, if you really want something, it has already been fished out by the Mexicans, which round will get us foreign tourists?"

"That's a shame."

"Maybe the tour guide is talking nonsense, I don't think there are any bones at the bottom of the well."

Ao Tang looked at the two dry wells, his brows furrowed slightly. At this time, the management had already begun to remind that the visit time of Chichen Itza would end at half past five in the afternoon, and the tourists were asked to go out in time, Ao Tang shrugged his shoulders and followed the crowd to the exit.

At half past nine in the evening, at half past seven in the morning on the Chinese side, Ao Tang called Yu Zhiwei before the action.
