Chapter 257: Lost Civilization
This is a small box with a diameter of 20 cm and a height of about 40 cm, very similar to an ancient lunch box, but Hu Xiaodao is not sure.
With the gaze of all eyes, Hu Xiaodao easily opened the lid.
What catches your eye is a colorful pottery product with an American style.
"Holy! Brother Dao, you sent it! ”
"One million, Brother Dao, I want this jar!"
"A million? Five million Dao brothers, not eight million, I'll take it! ”
"Don't shout, maybe it's Brother Dao's props team who is fooling us! ~Hey, hey, hey, ......"
The discussions in the live broadcast room were one after another, but Hu Xiaodao didn't care, his attention was completely immersed in this jar at the moment.
It's a round jar.
The pattern of the shape connected along the mouth may mean that a major mountain is connected and reaches the sky!
In the middle is a carved human face, which looks like an Andean or Mayan, with no eyeballs and painted red to look particularly vivid.
This human face occupies about half of the entire round jar, and behind the round face, that is, the other half of the jar, there are eighteen square patterns, each with a different pattern in the red frame.
Hu Xiaodao asked himself if he didn't understand ancient hieroglyphs, and could only see a clue from a few of the simplest patterns.
The first of these depicts some millet and knives, which is supposed to depict a good harvest.
The other is a child with the sun above his head, symbolizing life.
The third one is a lot of small dots, and Hu Xiaodao looked at it for a long time before he understood that it was rain, and the rain moistened everything.
The other knives couldn't be understood.
The base is simple, with circles of water ripples at the bottom, forming a corresponding picture with the peaks above.
Special attention is paid to the fact that the entire jar does not have a handle, and it seems that it is not for drinking water, but should be for sacrifice.
The first few pictures foreshadow good weather and express the reverence of the ancients towards unknown forces.
Hu Xiaodao did not carry the jar with him, but put it back in the box and buried it in the ground, he still had to explore, and it was definitely not convenient to bring this jar.
After burying it, I went out and continued to walk inside, but some places inside began to seep water, and the road conditions were not as easy to walk as at the beginning.
The wooden frame had collapsed in places, and there was green moss on the stakes, and some snails and rats were running around under the nose of Hu Xiaodao, who pretended not to see it and continued to walk.
Finally, "Smack!" appeared at Hu Xiaodao's feet. There was a soft sound.
It's not the cracking sound of bones or something, it's the crisp sound of water.
The mine is finally flooded, and the situation is mixed.
The good thing is that Hu Xiaodao doesn't have to worry about the lack of water at all, of course, the water on the ground Hu Xiaodao will definitely not drink, as long as he digs a few times with a sapper shovel, there will be clean water sources gushing out, these are all groundwater.
The worry is that the terrain here is constantly declining, and Hu Xiaodao is afraid that the road in front of him will be flooded, and he will not be able to move forward at all.
He didn't bring any diving equipment with him on this cave expedition, but the only thing to be thankful for is that this backpack is waterproof, and even if he dives himself, as long as the air in the bag is discharged, diving is almost unburdensome.
The dim cave only relied on the miner's lamp worn above Hu Xiaodao's head, or the brightness of the lowest level, the visibility was less than six meters, except for the occasional sound of dripping water on the top, the whole passage was terrifyingly quiet.
It's been more than ten minutes since I left the safe house, and the water is almost knee-high at the moment, and there is nothing special about the dark paint in front of me.
"Poof! ~"Hu Xiaodao stumbled, grabbed his hands a few times, and quickly took a step forward with his left foot so as not to fall, obviously mixed with something.
"Grass, I almost fell and ate! ~”
Hu Xiaodao reached out and felt for the water, wondering what the object that had tripped over him was, and he estimated that it might be a wooden stake that had fallen from the top.
Then I touched something very strange, it felt very smooth, and I took it out and looked at it.
Amazing...... It's amputated thigh bones!
Standing in the water, what I feared had happened.
There have been accidents here, and the people who didn't come and left in a hurry must have died here, and they couldn't even get to the location of the safety zone.
As for the two people in the safe house, they must have been killed by some powerful person, and then their bodies were dumped there, and then the mine was completely abandoned.
Hu Xiaodao didn't dare to assume at will now, because the assumptions in his mind were very inhumane.
For example, Hu Xiaodao thought that this group of miners had dug something great when they were mining, so they first secretly took some of it out without telling the boss, and then finally one day the boss found out and had a conflict with the miners.
Created a sensational massacre, then blew up the mine with gunpowder, caused a landslide, and then patted the ass and walked away. As for why he didn't continue to dig up the treasure, Hu Xiaodao didn't know.
After all, this is his wild speculation, maybe you can find clues in the National Museum of Spain or Portugal, but the situation in front of Hu Xiaodao is probably unlikely.
Turn on the headlamp to switch the brightness to high gear, the brightness in the cave has increased significantly, but still can't see the structure of the distant mine hole, Hu Xiaodao took out a strong flashlight from his pocket, and after turning it on, a cyan pillar of light shot out far away, with the telescope, Hu Xiaodao finally understood the situation in the distance.
The water level is always so high in the distance, but the trend of the mine is decreasing.
Two hundred meters further from Hu Xiaodao, the naked eye can see a yellow-colored wooden stake soaked in water, which is the wooden stake used to support the mine, which is obviously submerged.
"It's all here, let's take a look, twenty ten thousand dragon figures have been rewarded."
"Twenty thousand dragon diagrams are embarrassing, Brother Dao, the ten Xuanlong guards are not respectful, take us to take a look, and come back if there is danger."
"It's not a big deal for you guys to watch the excitement, don't go, Brother Dao!"
There are also disagreements in the live broadcast room, but Hu Xiaodao has an adventurous enthusiasm in his bones, and the more dangerous he is, the more challenging he feels.
It seems that it is wise that he did not bring a hot weapon here, otherwise the cannon would not have been able to fire if the water was soaked.
Hu Xiaodao, who made up his mind, said with a smile: "Don't worry, Brother Dao won't be cowardly, but make it clear in advance, my diving skills are limited, if I haven't dived to the other side within my ability, then I will definitely have to turn back, don't blame me." ”
After that, Hu Xiaodao rolled up his sleeves, sorted out the backpack straps, everything was ready, Hu Xiaodao took a deep breath and lowered his head and walked forward.
The distance of two hundred meters is not close, but it is not far away, Hu Xiaodao walked very steadily, and the unknown world in front of him made him full of curiosity.
If you sneak into the opposite side and find the underground golden city, then Hu Xiaodao will not be in vain this time.
Two hundred meters is only a moment away, and the place where he is standing now is still about thirty meters away from the wooden stake soaked in the water in front of him.
