136. The third person

The ruins and ruins under our feet are showing those who come after us how orderly and tidy this place once was.

There were broken rocks and bricks everywhere, and if you looked closely, the bricks and walls seemed to have been carved with patterns and lines.

Joyna picked up a piece of masonry and examined the almost smoothed lines.

"When the hell is this carving? I don't think I've ever seen one. ”

"I don't know, there used to be human life here, right?"

Soon, they were already under the huge wall. After illuminating it with the light, they realized that from the angle from which they stood, the wall could be called truly beautiful.

Even if neither of them is an art person, or an archaeologist, they know that the carvings on the walls are not only ancient, but also seem to tell a story - the carved murals are rich in subjects, people, animals, plants, buildings, mountains and rivers.

In particular, the carved buildings, although somewhat abstract, are obviously very regular geometric shapes, unlike buildings that have appeared in human history.

And even if it's from many years ago, the colors on it look rich, and they haven't faded much, so they should have been painted with some kind of mineral paint.

In three places on the wall, there are three symbols that glow with a pale blue light......

"Huh? Wait, these symbols...... I think they've seen it somewhere! ”

Xiao Wu stared at Lingxiu's big eyes, staring at the wall, struggling to remember.

"I feel the same way! I also feel like I've seen it there. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Is it there? ”

"Ahh I remember, it's in the elder's secret room! That's right, it's a similar symbol. Xiao Wu finally remembered.

"Well, yes, where it is! There's also a carved painting on the wall of that secret room, and we've seen its rubbing! ”

"That elder seems to have said before that the mural in that secret room was taken from 'Shambala', and I have always remembered this name."

"The things here also have this symbol, isn't it ......?"

Joyna turned her head to look at Xiao Wu.

"This is 'Shambala'!"

Both men shouted at the same time.

……

"This can't be, this cave we have now is the 'Shambala' that the elder mentioned? I remember she saying it was some kind of holy place for them. ”

Xiao Wu shook his head as he looked at everything in front of him.

"Maybe we're mistaken, but it's not necessarily, look at the ruins of buildings all over the ground, it should be man-made, why is their holy place like this? …… Perhaps there is more than just 'Shambala' with a symbol like this, right? ”

"Hmmm! …… Also, how could we inadvertently come to the holy place of the 'Jidu people' that the elders call it? ”

Xiao Wu shook his head again, the elder shouldn't let them come here, it doesn't make sense.

Joyna touched the wall, it was smooth to the touch, but it was not the brick wall she thought it was.

So he said, "Let's explore these places well, and maybe we can find our way to that side." ”

"That's right, that's what I thought, let's take a look around first, those broken stone pillars and statues are quite concerning. They probably have been around for more than a thousand years, right? Xiao Wu sighed.

"More than that, I want to know, where does the cold wind on those walls come from? ……”

The two chatted like this.

They looked all the way down the cliff of the abyss, but were soon disappointed.

The two went separately to investigate, and there was still a lot of space and many forks in the road.

Joyna had nothing in front of her except the rock wall and broken stone pillars and broken bricks to take a closer look.

Xiao Wu walked around from that side, but he didn't find anything, and he didn't have a path that could cross this ice wall.

So she used her senses, turned back, and began to scrutinize the wall.

"Huh? There seems to be something behind this wall. ”

She said, stroking the image on the wall with her hand, closing her eyes and confirming it.

"How's it going, what did you find?"

Joyna saw that she didn't open her eyes for a long time, so she asked.

"It's a little strange, I can't see the shape of the thing behind the wall...... Like an amorphous thing. But occasionally I could feel that there seemed to be a round object, and it only appeared for a moment. ”

Saying this, Xiao Wu put away her divine sense-like probing with her divine sense all the time, which consumed a lot of her spiritual power.

There doesn't seem to be any other way around, and it seems that those spirit grasses on the other side, they may have to give up.

The two of them were at a loss in the cave trying to figure out what to do.

Joyna stared at the huge mural wall in amazement, her mind was empty, and she looked at the picture in turn......

"Huh? You see, it seems to be a person, what else is he holding in his hands? ”

Xiao Wu turned around and looked carefully at the direction of Joyna's finger: "Is it some kind of instrument?" What are these people doing? ”

The mural, though rich, still looks abstract – the man holding something, as Joyna said.

She didn't think the same as Xiao Wu, she felt that it was like a person holding a strange farm tool, driving away the beasts around him. Or maybe he's holding a weird-looking piece of food and feeding it to an animal.

They clearly didn't have enough imagination......

In short, they really can't see in their eyes, and they can't imagine what it is.

There were all kinds of animals on the screen, even animals they had never seen or heard of.

For example, the horned, orangutan-like animal; and the head in the shape of a five-pointed star, but the body was as large as some kind of insect, and there were a few tentacle-like pseudopods under it; There is also an animal that is as small as a rabbit, but has a long and forked tail that rests on the treetops......

To them, it looks like a fantasy.

I don't know which crazy prehistoric "artist" created the product of imagination, which has been preserved in this hole.

The women were always uninterested in the somewhat boring aspects of archaeological research, or things that required some kind of historical knowledge to identifyβ€”and the same was true for Xiao Wu and Joyna.

In their understanding, this is nothing more than some more delicate primitive cave paintings, and these images are more abstract......

At the moment, they were more concerned about how to get those blue and shining lovely spirit grasses.

Most of the day passed like this, and they did not think of any way, nor did they find a way to cross the huge ice wall and the abyss.

This is the last place that the Jidu clan elder marked on the map.

Although the map is very large, they may not have explored it all, and there will be other places where they haven't been to that kind of spirit grass, but if they are allowed to search aimlessly like this, I don't know how long they will be searching......

In Joyna's anxious mood, she probably won't search anymore.

In this way, their journey of collecting medicine is coming to an end.

"Forget it, let's go! It's probably dark outside! It seems that there is no way, we have enough of these! ”

Joyna stood up first and patted the dust off her body.

"Hmm~ It seems that it has to be like this, but it's a pity that the large area of spirit grass grows......"

Although they are unwilling, they can't think about it.

……

"Heheβ€”are you leaving so soon?"

A man's voice suddenly came from the way above them......

Both of them were taken aback by the voice!

In this uninhabited cave, when did outsiders come, and they didn't even notice it!

"Who?"

"Who is it?"

The appearance of this person made both Joyna and Xiao Wu vigilant!

This is also normal......

In this inaccessible vast snow-capped mountain, and in such a dark and deep cave, if a third person appeared, anyone would definitely be extremely shocked.
