Chapter 112: Origin
Seeing Shen Lang's excited appearance now, everyone's expressions couldn't help but be a little surprised.
There is no doubt that the people present are all smart people, compared to others, Shen Lang is actually a little silly, because of this, everyone didn't expect that it would be he who figured out the hint that Chunting just made to us.
However, people can't look good, as the so-called thousand people have a thousand Hamlets in their eyes, maybe our thinking is not in place, or maybe our thinking is once again limited by ourselves, only Shen Lang really understands the meaning of Chunting's actions just now.
Therefore, after a short period of surprise, everyone did not question Shen Lang, but looked at him expectantly, expecting him to tell the secret he had discovered.
"Eyes, it's eyes, Brother Ting's actions just now are implying that our secret is hidden in the eyes of the candle dragon!"
After seeing our expectant gaze, Shen Lang did not hesitate, only to see him pointing to his eyes excitedly, and shouting excitedly in his mouth at the same time.
"Everyone saw it, Brother Ting first stretched out his right hand just now, pointed it at his eyes with his raised right hand, and then pointed his right hand at the candle dragon not far away, although he did it for a long time, but there was no change in the action."
"Since the candle dragon lives in an extremely ancient mythological era, then Brother Ting naturally will not have anything to do with the name of the candle dragon, so Brother Ting's raised right hand and the two actions pointing at him have nothing to do with this matter, and after these two actions, Brother Ting only has one last action left, that is, pointing to his eyes."
"At the same time, I believe everyone has already discovered that since the candle dragon appeared, he has never opened those closed eyes in front of us, and after thinking of Brother Ting's action pointing at his eyes just now, the hint that Brother Ting wants to give is actually extremely obvious."
Speaking of this, Shen Lang paused slightly, only to see him turn to look at Chunting, his tone full of confidence.
"So, Brother Ting, what you did just now is a hint to us, and the answer to the question that the candle dragon asked us is hidden in his closed eyes!"
"Although I promised the candle dragon just now that I will never give you more hints, now that you have seen the strange situation, it will not be a break in my promise to answer whether or not only."
After hearing the confident answer from Shen Lang's mouth, a satisfied smile appeared on Chun Ting's face, he first looked at Shen Lang with appreciative eyes, and then nodded to us in confirmation.
"What Shen Lang said is right, the answer to the question just now is hidden in the eyes of the candle dragon, out of the guarantee just now, so I can't give you more hints, but as long as you think in this direction, I believe you will definitely be able to find the right answer."
After hearing the confirmation from Chunting's mouth, everyone's mood that had just been low became high again.
The reason why we can't answer the question raised by the candle dragon is because he has survived so far away that we can't think of where to start.
And now, first Shen Lang saw the hint made by Chunting, and then Chunting has also confirmed the correctness of this guess to us, which is tantamount to us getting a starting point for this problem, in this case, the difficulty of this problem is naturally greatly reduced.
At this moment, it is clear to all of us that in the eyes of the candle dragon, which are always closed, there is the answer we desperately need now.
So, what exactly is the answer?
According to the records in ancient books, when the candle dragon opened his eyes, the land of Shenzhou was day, and when the candle dragon closed his eyes, this heaven and earth came to night, and it was between the opening and closing of his eyes that this heaven and earth had the alternation of day and night.
In all fairness, this account is a bit exaggerated, the candle dragon has lived in this city of black stone for thousands of years, and has never been in contact with the outside world, if Shenzhou really only relies on his eyes to open and close and change day and night, then I am afraid that the world has already become a mess.
Therefore, there is no doubt that this record in ancient books can only be regarded as a mythological story at best, and it must not be easily believed as the truth of history.
But there is no doubt that there must be a reason for everything, and any legend must have the most primitive roots, which means that even if the eyes of the candle dragon cannot control the change of day and night, there must be some kind of ability hidden in his eyes that we do not know, otherwise there would never be such a record circulating.
And this unknown ability in the eyes of the candle dragon is the key to what we want to break the game now.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but turn around and look at the mural behind me, although what we see now is only a stone slab without any special characteristics, but because the impression at first sight is too deep, so the content carved on the mural just now is still firmly remembered by me.
The mural is carved with a special existence of a dragon-headed body, not to mention its dragon-like body, just on that human face, it presents a strange appearance that we cannot understand.
Among the human faces carved on the murals of Fang Cai, their facial features are all there, but they are obviously very different from ordinary people, the most conspicuous of which are the closed eyes.
Like the candle dragon we just saw, the faces carved on the mural also have closed eyes, and unlike normal humans, their eyes do not grow horizontally, but vertically.
In addition, the shape of those eyes is not different from any other eye shape seen in daily life, and even the left and right eyes are completely different.
It is not difficult to see that the left eye of the man on the mural presents a perfect circle, but the right eye presents a perfect arc, the shape of the eyes is very different, it only makes people feel that his left eye is like the sun, and his right eye is like the moon.
In ancient records, the candle dragon opens its eyes for day and closes its eyes for night, although we all know that this is an exaggerated record, but it is not difficult to see that it is precisely because of the endless power in his eyes that such a legend will be left.
And on this mural suspected to be carved with a candle dragon, its carved eyes are also different from ordinary people, its left eye is like the sun, and its right eye is like the moon, which invisibly proves my conjecture just now.
Thinking of this, I suddenly thought about it, and after putting everything together in my mind, I gradually came up with a bold guess.
