Chapter 386: The Land Where Yin and Yang Meet
Zhang Xiaoman, as the leader of the organization, is now able to personally invite him to join, which is already very face-saving.
Zhan Nan also had the intention of hugging his thighs, and now that the other party has handed him an olive branch, where can he have a reason to refuse?
After asking two basic questions, he happily nodded and agreed to the invitation.
It's not that he doesn't want to ask in more detail, such as the organization's people, structure, benefits, etc.
But Zhan Nan is also bitter now.
On the one hand, this oasis is no longer safe, and the two monsters that appeared one after another can already explain the problem.
On the other hand, he is now being pursued by Lacey, and if he leaves here, he doesn't know when he will be found by the other party.
Besides, I believe that there are basically not many organizations in this world that can take the initiative to take them in at such a juncture.
Yes, Zhan Nan simply asked about the name of the organization and its purpose, and then nodded in agreement.
"Zhannan, I also know something about you and Lacey. But now that you've joined the Covenant, the organization will protect you, and you don't have to worry about anything from Lacey's side. β
Zhang Xiaoman first gave the other party a dose of centering injection, followed by another dose of preventive injection.
"However, the Star Covenant will not interfere with your personal grudges, but if you do anything that violates the rules of the Star Alliance, it will also be punished, I hope you don't lose your mind because of revenge."
When Zhan Nan heard this, a wry smile appeared on his face, and he said:
"My revenge has been avenged, and I don't care about the rest anymore."
Zhang Xiaoman nodded, then pinched the golden flower in his hand again, and asked:
"Have you ever seen this kind of flower? Especially in the vicinity of this oasis. β
Zhan Nan thought for a moment, then shook his head and said: "I have lived here for almost two years, and the places are quite familiar, but I have never seen flowers of this appearance, their colors are very strange, if I see them, then I will definitely not forget them." β
Zhang Xiaoman saw him so sure, and he was inevitably a little disappointed in his heart.
According to his experience, there is a high probability that these flowers will appear in the vicinity, or even in the oasis where everyone is currently located.
After all, the first few times I searched for branch members, it was almost the same process.
Now it seems that in order to find them, we need to start with the legend recorded in that letter.
"The golden flower, the sun god, the place where yin and yang meet, will never decay...... What is the connection between these clues? β
Zhang Xiaoman muttered, slowly walked out of the house, his eyes scanned the surrounding environment, but he was thinking about the key to those legends.
Several other people also followed, Hu Peng and Xun You naturally heard what he said just now, and they all began to think about it at this moment.
"You say, could it be that somewhere in Eero, the name is related to the sun god? Maybe we can investigate from this aspect. β
Xun You was the first to propose.
Hu Peng, as a senior enthusiast of relics, also put forward his own conjecture at this time.
"Actually, I think we should start with the 'intersection of yin and yang' and 'never decay'. According to my understanding, this 'place where yin and yang meet' may refer to the place where the sun has just risen, and that should be in the easternmost part, that is, near us......"
"Then, at a certain location in the terrain here, when the sun rises, there will be a zone of light and darkness, which is mostly behind some high and convex weathered rock wall, and I think that the intersection of yin and yang may represent this meaning......"
Zhang Xiaoman heard what he said and seemed to be very reasonable, and couldn't help but be interested, and secretly said in his heart that this kid might really be able to surprise himself.
Seeing his boss nodding, Hu Peng was also very useful, and even told his next conjecture.
"The intersection of yin and yang should only be a general orientation and environment, as for the specific location, I think it is on this 'never decay'."
"Judging from the flower itself, it has been kept in this box for so many years, and it does have the power of not decaying, but I think there should be another interpretation of this legend."
Hu Peng said very energetically, but this made everyone in the wildfire team suffer.
They couldn't understand Chinese, but they were too embarrassed to ask the other party to speak English, so they could only look at Zhang Xiaoman with blank eyes, hoping to hear some information from him.
Zhang Xiaoman did not interrupt Hu Peng, but quietly waited for the other party's next step.
"The 'intersection of yin and yang' mentioned before should be regarded as the general location and environment of this flower, as for the specific location, it must be interpreted from the perspective of 'never decaying'."
"First of all, the sunflower has been stored in a chest in the ground for decades, but it is still as good as new, so it is certain that the flower itself has the property of 'non-decaying', I dare not say permanent, but at least it can definitely last for decades."
Everyone nodded, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Hu Peng continued: "However, these legendary 'never decay' should have another meaning. I think it should represent the soul. β
"Soul?"
Xun was stunned, and then suddenly said, "You mean, mummy?" β
"That's right!"
Hu Peng nodded and said, "In the legend of HΓ©rault, after a person dies, the soul will not die for the time being. The Guero people disposed of the corpses with embalming spices, ensuring that the corpses would not decay easily, and also preserving the souls from being harvested by the Grim Reaper. β
"Therefore, since this flower is the rumored immortal god flower, it is very likely that it is related to mummies. In this case, they should be located near the pyramids. However, considering that it is associated with the sun, it is likely to grow on the top of the pyramid! β
Although his analysis sounds a bit unbelievable, when you think about it carefully, it seems that there is some truth to it, at least compared to the aimless search, so it seems to be more promising.
"That makes sense, that is, we can now just look for a pyramid somewhere in the east where the terrain is more undulating?"
Zhan Nan said, looking at Zhang Xiaoman.
"It just so happens that Your Excellency has a spaceship that can fly freely in the air, and if those flowers are really at the top of the tower, then we can collect them very easily."
His role is changing very quickly, and between his words, he has already brought himself into a part of the Star Alliance.
