At this time, Xiao Ling took the searchlight in his hand, turned it on again, and hit the beam on the giant face that was looking down on them above.

Xiao Ling's boldness made everyone's scalps tingle for a while, and Yu Tingting couldn't help but shout: "Xiao Ling." ”

Xiao Ling ignored her, just looked up at the giant face, and suddenly said, "Who are you?" ”

After recovering a little from the initial panic and fear, everyone began to notice that the huge face looked like a human, with white eyebrows, no hair, and a face full of deep wrinkles, which looked like a snake and python crawling all over the place.

Compared to the giants who were tied up around him, the huge face in front of him looked very old, this was an old giant.

The old giant, also half-human, half-tree, his lower body turned into a plant, extending in all directions, and his upper body was bound by chains, and now he pulled the chains straight, tilted his body, and looked down at everyone.

Unlike the giants around him who were struggling frantically, the light in the eyes of this old giant with white eyebrows was clear and not crazy, which seemed to indicate that he had a clear mind.

Xiao Ling had just taken the searchlight in Sun Tao's hand and turned it back on, because he suddenly felt that the giant in front of him might not have any ill will towards them, and they were tied to the surrounding rock walls, with a limited range of movement, as long as everyone did not approach them, these giants could not hurt them, even so, there was no need to be afraid at all.

Hearing Xiao Ling's inquiry, the white-eyebrowed giant suddenly opened its mouth and let out a low roar.

Strange to say, after this roar, the giants who were struggling and roaring frantically around them began to fall silent.

When Xiao Ling saw this, his heart moved, this old giant seemed to be able to restrain the giants around him, could it be that he was the leader of these giants?

The surrounding giants quieted down, the original noisy and harsh sound disappeared, the old giant opened his mouth, suddenly made a sound, and when he spoke, everyone could hear it, this should be a kind of language, but everyone listened to it in their ears, looked at each other, and no one could understand what the old giant said.

At this moment, everyone could already see that the old giant had no intention of harming them, but just wanted to communicate with them.

Zhou Kesheng hurriedly said: "Old Li, do you understand what he is saying?" ”

Among the people, Li Zhibao is a national treasure-level expert who studies ancient civilizations and various ancient languages, and everyone can't understand it, and they only hope that Li Zhibao can understand it.

Li Zhibao smiled bitterly and shook his head, although he could decipher many ancient characters, and even recognized the Yu Book of the Yu Dynasty thousands of years ago, but he couldn't understand what the giant in front of him said.

"What you're talking about, we don't understand." Pang Yan couldn't help but speak, gesturing as she spoke.

The old giant closed his mouth, and he stared at the people in front of him, as if he also understood the language barrier between the two sides.

Xiao Ling's heart moved, and said: "Old Li, although you can't understand what he is saying, you may not be able to recognize their words, why don't you write a few ancient texts." ”

"Okay." Li Zhibao also understood what Xiao Ling meant, just as although he knew Yu Wen and even more ancient characters, he didn't know the specific pronunciation of these words, although he didn't understand what the old giant said in front of him, it didn't mean that he didn't know the language and writing of these giants.

Xiao Ling asked Liu Guangsheng to turn on the camping lantern, Li Zhibao picked up the saber, and under the light of the camping lantern, on a thick tree root on the side, carefully carved the words.

The giant watched their movements silently, staring at Li Zhibao with a pair of giant eyes, watching him carve out a word.

Li Zhibao first engraved a Qin text.

The old giant shook his head, he obviously understood what Li Zhibao meant.

Seeing this, Li Zhibao carved another oracle bone inscription, and the old giant still shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

Then Li Zhibao carved Yu Shu and Xia Seal, the old giant kept shaking his head, suddenly, he seemed to be a little anxious, suddenly pulled his right arm, pulled a chain straight, and then stretched out a finger, and scratched the soil of the rock wall on the side.

Xiao Ling was busy shining the beam of the searchlight towards the dirt on the rock wall.

Soon the giant drew a neat symbol on it.

Although it is far away, fortunately, this symbol is very huge, and Li Zhibao can see it clearly with the help of the beam of the searchlight, and his face shows a look of surprise.

"This is a kind of mythical script, this symbol represents the dragon character, I can't imagine that he knows how to write this kind of script."

"Elder Li, what is the divine text?" Xiao Ling glanced at Li Zhibao.

Li Zhibao's face was very strange, and he said: "This kind of writing was found in the ruins of the Hemu civilization, and it is known as a popular text in ancient times, and it is considered to be the language of communication between gods, so it is called the ancient divine text, and the age of its appearance is even older than that of Yao Shun, which is older than Yushu Xia Seal." But later, after careful study and decipherment, it was found that this writing system is very complete, and it is a language that is far more advanced than Yushu Xia Seal or oracle bone inscription and deed-glyph script, so this should be the Qin Dynasty Qin Dynasty after the appearance of the text, which has the shadow of Qin and Jinwen, which should be a kind of book style formed by some ethnic groups in later generations combined with Qin, Jinwen, and Zhouwen, that is, the Great Seal, but it was pretended to be an ancient script by later generations and regarded as a divine script. ”

Xiao Ling snorted and said softly: "I see, it means that some ancients made a fake, this is a fake ancient script?" ”

Li Zhibao said: "It can be said that I didn't expect him to know this kind of writing, which is strange......"

There was a hint of hesitation and uneasiness in his tone.

Since the discovery of this ancient god at the site of the Hom civilization, the research and controversy about this ancient god has never stopped, and now the mainstream view is that the appearance of this script is after the Qin Dynasty, it should be a script developed by a certain nomadic people, but it was later artificially pretended to be regarded as an ancient god, but there are also a few theists who still believe that this is the text of the ancient era, and it is the text of communication between gods.

Li Zhibao has always been an atheist, and he firmly believes that this is a text that only appeared in later generations, but at this moment, he suddenly saw that the elderly giant in front of him could write this kind of writing, his heart beat like a drum, and his original belief suddenly began to waver.

Could it be that the true origin of this text is not as simple as previously thought?

Inexplicably uneasy in his heart, Li Zhibao took a deep breath, took the saber, and began to carve on the thick roots on the side.

Li Zhibao has studied this very mature language and writing system, and although he does not know the specific pronunciation of these characters, he can write and understand their meaning.
