"What does the admonition say? Can I tell you? I asked.

In the island nation, the imperial admonition is similar to the Chinese emperor's "rules for governing the country", which is a superposition of the lessons of the blood and tears of each generation of kings, including the aphorism that "water can carry a boat and can also overturn a boat".

Every royal family figure who is determined to govern the world and work hard to govern the country has read it repeatedly until it is memorized.

"The most important thing about the snake ruins is not to let him see the weakness of your heart." Said the big shot.

I couldn't help frowning, this sentence was very obscure, not very easy to understand.

"The riddle of the Sphinx." The big guy added.

The Sphinx refers to the Egyptian Sphinx, the answer to the famous riddle is "man".

"Can't let it see through people's hearts? Can't let it have a human mind? I asked.

The big man took a deep breath: "Probably, everyone has a different understanding of this sentence, but more and more people are afraid of the snake ruin, and regard it as the biggest ominous thing in the world. ”

"Well, forget it, let's not touch it." I deliberately showed timidity by retreating in order to observe the performance of the big guys.

In articles by global observers, bigwigs have always been seen as "the backbone of the royal family." This point has begun to emerge from the middle school years of the big man.

According to the media, the big man spent at least two-thirds of his energy in kendo, karate, and ninja in middle school, which is several times that of other peers. At that time, due to his persistence, the imperial family hired the best kendo master in the country to be his teacher, that is, Miyamoto Oishi, the 41st generation descendant of the Miyamoto family, who is famous all over the world.

From middle school to university, the big man went all out to practice kendo, and finally became one of the most famous "Ten Musketeers of the Young Generation" in the island country at that time.

The only master stronger than him is the Scarlet Rain Wild Deer, known as the "seven-armed sword ape" of the Crimson Rain family.

Friends who are interested in the "seven-armed sword ape" can check Google, this person has won two consecutive Olympic fencing champions, especially in the foil and epee events, the world is invincible.

I gave the example of the scarlet rain deer to illustrate that the big man, as a member of the royal family, was not obsessed with the sound of dogs and horses, but was quite self-disciplined. Only those who are ambitious will be strict with themselves, train their spirit and body to the realm of inviolability, and be ready to meet the "great task from heaven" at any time.

Many reporters who have been close to the big man have mentioned that the big man is a real man with great courage and no timidity. In the world of politics, only the Great Northern can match it.

I don't believe that in front of the snake ruins, the big guys will be discouraged.

Sure enough, the big man smiled slightly: "In my country, there must always be someone who dares to break the taboo." Even with an ominous curse, a true warrior can shoulder it. Mr. Zhao, just like you, the Oda clan values you so much and respects you as the hope of the family, shouldn't they also show some courage at this moment? ”

I nodded silently, silently, lest I be seen through by the big guys.

"You stand back, I'll knock this piece down." Said the big shot.

I shook my head: "Let's do it together, if there is something bad going on, it will be easier for two people to share it." ”

Ordinary people always seek good fortune and avoid evil, rushing to get on the good side and rushing to avoid the bad things.

But I know that in many cases, only those brave men who charge against odds receive the gift of God.

Infinite scenery is in the dangerous peak, if you want to get extraordinary blessings, you must have the courage to climb the dangerous peak.

I had a hunch that the snake ruins would change the delicate relationship between me and the big guys. When we face an ancient curse together, we become comrades-in-arms.

When I had the opportunity to enter Zhao Tan's thoughts, I did not just want to understand the tomb of the Oda ghost slave as the ultimate goal, but cherished every minute, made as many changes as possible, and tried to understand the situation of the "Tomb of the Gods" better than Zhao Tan.

Thinking more, doing more, and seeing more is really worth the trip.

"Okay, it's rare that everyone has the courage to push the limit, let's get started." The big man smiled and nodded.

We each grabbed a corner of the cloth and retreated at the same time, pulling the whole cloth down.

The cloth was covered with dust, and when it was pulled, the dust was filled, and there was no human figure within ten steps.

I didn't rush to avoid the dust, but looked up at the face of the statue as soon as the cloth slid down.

Through the smoke, I saw a monster with the head of a snake.

I saw the snake's head squirming slightly, its eyes wide open, and it shot out a blue light. Since it is the head of a snake, there must be a snake letter. As I gazed at it, its snake letter was rapidly swallowing.

For at least ten seconds, I was convinced that the statue of the serpent's head was alive.

As I tried to see a little more clearly, the smoke drifted away and blew into my eyes.

I lowered my head, rubbed my eyes vigorously, and looked up again, and the head of the snake was already standing still, looking ahead, and the standing statue of the Oda ghost slave on the opposite side was far away.

Those ten seconds are so precious that you can't see them if you close your eyes to avoid the dust. Ten seconds passed, and the statue was just a statue, and there was nothing strange about it.

I can't describe what I'm seeing, and it doesn't make sense at all.

"Ah, so much dust, it's blind." The big man shouted.

I woke up from my gaffe and immediately stepped back, waving my hands in front of me and slapping the dust.

"This is the Snake Ruins, but that's it." The big man looked up with his head up, his tone full of disappointment.

"yes, it's just a standing statue." I chimed in.

The big man dropped the cloth in his hand, approached, and slapped the arm of the statue, making a "pop" sound.

"Sir, sir." Just now, the middle-aged dovetail rushed back, holding a tablet in his hand.

When he saw that the cloth covering the snake ruins had been torn off, his face immediately became extremely ugly.

"Look, dovetail, it's all right. Together with Mr. Zhao, I ripped off the cloth. I tell you, don't be too superstitious about certain legends. We live in the twenty-first century, and we need to look forward and learn from those countries and peoples who have 'atheistic' beliefs. Said the big man.

"Sir, there are 240 pictures, 400 text introductions, and 22 videos on the computer, all of which are about the snake ruins." Hatotail said.

The big man laughed: "Dovetail, don't look at it, no amount of legends will scare off me and Mr. Zhao's courage." Look, we're standing here well, not knocked down by the snake ruins at all. I won't look at those pictures or anything, if Mr. Zhao is interested, you can feel free to browse them. ”

I originally wanted to see it, but when the big man said it, he changed his mind and shook his head: "Don't look at it, we have defeated the rumors with facts." ”

Aside from the strange scene I saw in the first ten seconds, the statue of the snake ruin showed nothing out of the ordinary, just a standing statue.

The excavation in the tomb continued, and the big man received a secret report in the middle of the way, telling me to leave, and sent the dovetail to follow and assist me unconditionally.

After the big man left, Dovetail's nervousness was completely relieved, and he took out a military flask from his pocket and drank several large sips.

"We've removed the cloth from the ruins, and we're worrying you. I'm sorry. I said.

"In the ninth part of the transcript, there is a passage that roughly means, 'When the dragon came, the serpent arose.' The fourth segment of the video is a true record of a dragon and a snake fighting fiercely in the sky above the Shinkansen. Mr. Zhao, since the first day I guarded the 'Tomb of the Gods', I have hoped that someone would remove the cloth, and now, I have finally got my wish. How thick the soil is on the cloth, how urgent my hope is. He said.

Dovetail is supposed to be a person with mild alcohol dependence, and after a few sips of alcohol, his cheekbones immediately turned red.

"There are similar legends in every city, and when you look closely, there is no real evidence." I say.

"No, no." Dovetail shook his head vigorously, holding the flask in his right hand, waving it in the air, "This is not a legend, but a fact. The appearance of the snake ruins...... The appearance of ghosts...... The appearance of the mermaid in the sea...... All herald the return of an old era. Don't turn a blind eye to this, we can't turn a blind eye, the whole world can't turn a blind eye, the Age of Discovery is about to begin, the era of invincibility......" His wine rose very quickly, and in a few minutes, he was already incoherent.

In fact, the Age of Discovery had its own special background, which was inseparable from the undesirable factors at that time, such as communication blockage, low productivity, and poor ethnic communication skills.

In the modern era of rapid development of science and technology, even the earth has become a "global village", not to mention the connection between several continents?

"You're drunk, sit down and rest." I pointed to the chair where the big man had sit.

"I'm not drunk, you know? The drunk are awake, and the awake are all drunk, and these are two completely upside-down worlds. Snake Ruin - Don't let the Snake Ruin read your mind, or you will be a ghost of the Snake Ruin, and you will lose your soul......" Dovetail shouted.

The people around looked this way, but they were supposed to be below Dovetail, so no one came to stop his yelling.

"What else do you know about the Snake Ruins?" I asked.

Dovetail unscrewed the lid of the flask again, and took two sips of grunt, getting even more drunk.

"What else do I know? We're committing ...... A grave mistake, never to wake up the snake ruins from its sleep, shhhh......h

I knew that digging must have been a very long process, and I couldn't stay here forever.

Just now, Dovetail put the tablet in his coat pocket. I want to take it out and see what's inside.

Actually, if my movements were light enough, I wouldn't alarm him.

I leaned forward, my right hand hanging down, and reached into the right pocket of his uniform.

The case of a tablet is generally made of plastic, which is smooth and hard, and you can clip it out with just one corner and two fingers pinching it.

Strangely, I didn't touch the computer in the dovetail's pocket, which turned out to be empty. As my hand reached for the bottom of my pocket, a slippery, soft rope suddenly wrapped around my fingers, then tightened and I couldn't break free.

"Snakes, it's snakes." My heart sank.

The big man and I had just removed the cloth from the snake ruins, and retribution was coming in a blink of an eye—the snake was coming.

In a flash of lightning, I withdrew my hand and found that I was entangled in a small blue snake.

"The eyes of the snake ruin are also this color, is it revenge from the snake ruin?" I turned my head to look at the statue of the serpent's head.

It was then that its eyes widened again and it looked at me.

In those snake eyes, I saw the curse of death.

"Everything is lost, the soul is pledged to the devil, and there is no liberation, and the ghosts of the snake ruins sweep the sea and the earth, as well as the grasslands, and harvest everything, including death." I heard a voice come out cold, like a curse, like a sentence.

"Danger, danger, Mr. Long, wake up, you're in great danger soon, wake up, wake up, wake up quickly......" At the same time, I heard another voice.

It was the "*" Tang Hui of the Yellow Flower Society, and my mind immediately jumped out of my body, remembering that I should be in a dwelling in Dunhuang, and I was in deep communication with Zhao Tan's thoughts.

Everything in front of you is vain.

The so-called snake ruins are just a strange illusion that Zhao Tan saw, and it is already in the past.

It is precisely because of the existence of "*" that I can freely shuttle between the virtual and the real, the present and the past, the self and Zhao Tan.
