The Lost Kingdom of Snow Ridge Chapter 37 The Great Hall 1
Until he saw the stacked skeletons and white bones in the room, Xue Ning was still beaten back to the prototype. He stood outside the door and made a difficult choice for a while, and I saw him, and the root of his teeth was still in the room.
"You're playing too hard, don't you leave a whole corpse for others when you die." The fat man flicked at the shattered skull on the ground.
The plank that slapped the skull was still on the side, and I had to laugh awkwardly.
In fact, the fat man said this too early, because there is no way to pull out the arrow, we have to take some extreme measures, these tragic people may not think of dying a few more times, more than a thousand years later, will meet such a group of extremely vicious thugs.
As long as there were skeletons with arrows stuck in their heads, they were all smashed by us, and finally we collected more than a dozen crossbow arrows with the same characters engraved with Xuan characters.
"Who are the generals with the characters in the names of the Tang Dynasty?" The fat man roughly thinks that whatever words are engraved on the weapon will be used by the general's army, but in fact, there are very few scenes that often appear in this kind of TV series.
Xue Ning couldn't help but shake his head when he heard the fat man talking about a lot of names of famous generals in the Tang Dynasty at this time. "It's not impossible for you to guess this, but when it comes to this mystery, I know a very famous person. It's just that he's a civil official. ”
"Who." I hurriedly asked Xue Ning.
"Wang Xuance!"
"Oops! yes, look at my brain, if it were him, it would be possible to come here. The fat man patted his head and looked suddenly enlightened.
I am a little familiar with the name Wang Xuance, but I just can't remember it, I am afraid of asking, I will be choked by the fat man, after thinking about it, I know how to make it reasonable for him to say it himself, and immediately said with some sarcasm: "You also know this?" ”
The fat man really complied: "Can you still not know this, the story of Wang Xuance destroying a country by himself, I should have heard of some legendary deeds if I know a little bit of history." ”
As soon as the fat man said the words one person destroys one country, I instantly thought of who Wang Xuance was. Damn, it turned out that he was the one who wiped out the tens of thousands of giant elephant troops in Zhongtianzhu with the borrowed soldiers with the power of one person.
At this time, my expression should have been a mixture of sudden realization and consternation, and after the fat man finished speaking, he saw the strange look on my face, and seemed to understand that he was sucked by me.
"Hey, you kid is really fucking bad, deliberately tricking me."
Wang Xuance can be called a genius, his biggest deed is to send several envoys to Tianzhu, and bring back a lot of Buddhist treasures, but these are not the reasons why he is famous in history.
The matter stems from his fourth envoy to Tianzhu, but academically, there is still a great controversy about the authenticity of Wang Xuance's fourth envoy to Tianzhu, but so far it has neither been fully confirmed nor completely denied.
Wang Xuance is actually just a civil official of the lower five grades, in 643 AD, was promoted to deputy envoy, was appointed to envoy Tianzhu, three envoys in three years were quite smooth, that is, in the fourth envoy three years later, it happened to encounter the civil strife in Tianzhu, when Tianzhu was also divided into east, south, west, north, and middle five. Among them, Zhongtianzhu is the strongest.
Wang Xuance's envoy group was going to Zhongtianzhu, but he didn't want to be the king of Zhongtianzhu at that time, and the powerful minister Alona Shun took the opportunity to usurp the throne. Alonashun is not like the King of the Ring Sun, who does not have respect for the national power of the Tang Dynasty. As a result, Wang Xuance's mission was slaughtered, and he himself was imprisoned. Fortunately, he escaped later.
Wang Xuance, who fled, did not return directly to Chang'an, but went to Nibora, which is now Nepal, where he borrowed an army of more than 7,000 people in Nibora, and more than 1,200 people in Tibet. This guy now seems to be a person who can fool around, and the kung fu of the white wolf with empty gloves has to be admired.
With these temporary armies of less than 10,000 people, it took only three days for Zhongtianzhu's Chalu and Luocheng to be broken by this army, and Alona Shun and the princess were also captured, and then escorted to Chang'an.
After this incident, there is not much about Wang Xuance's deeds, although the credit is great, but the merits he created at that time are meaningless, Tianzhu is far away, there is no need to extend the territory at all, and there is only a bright and friendly Tubo in the middle.
"If you insist on having anything to do with Wang Xuance, this trade route through Tibet to Tianzhu is indeed opened by him." Xue Ning was pinching the arrow and looking at it in the sunlight.
The fat man twisted his beardless chin: "This thing is strange, since it is the way he opened up, then he must know the existence of this ancient city, then this Xuanzi arrow makes sense." ”
"No way, how can Wang Xuance be a military wizard, he is only a civilian official, and he has absolutely no military power in his hands." Xue Ning shook his head in denial.
Yes, the fat man's idea is still a bit too conspiracy theory, Wang Xuance could never have destroyed Tianzhu and destroyed a country along the way back by the way, besides, crossbow arrows are the standard equipment only available in the Tang Army, I guess it will be that Tubo learned the manufacturing process of crossbow arrows at that time, and this ancient city was originally destroyed by Tubo?
The fat man said a lot of speculations, all of which were messy things, what Li Shiming fell in love with the princess or princess of Rongyu Kingdom, so he secretly sent an army to kill the king.
I can't help but praise the fat man's imagination a little, we returned to the place where Xu Qing was placed, Xue Ning put the arrows away and put them in the backpack, Xu Qing woke up again at this time, his eyes open, his eyes were scattered.
We also rested enough, so we hurriedly put on our backpacks again, and the fat man continued to carry Xu Qing, and the three of us plus a seriously wounded man marched in the direction of the city gate.
Xue Ning seemed to be very happy because he had found these arrows, and he didn't look like a dead daughter-in-law before. He seemed to be a little greedy, and we glanced inside as we passed by buildings like the one before, but the courage remained the same, and he himself did not dare to go in.
About three or four loops away from the central hall, we finally saw the well in a building made entirely of stone.
This water source should not be the one Xu Qing said, because it can't be filled with water just by using a kettle. The water surface is about four or five meters below the well, at this time several people are all dry mouth, we have cut off the water last night, there is nothing to do without seeing the water, this time I can't drink it, my heart is itchy and uncomfortable.
The fat man is the most unbearable one, but still helpless, we just ate some compressed biscuits during the break, that thing will quickly swell when eaten with water and make people feel full, but we have no water at all, completely dry swallowing. The compressed biscuits issued by the expedition team are also military products with an extremely high degree of compression. All the way I struggled with the dryness in my throat and the stickiness in my mouth. But patience can still endure for a while.
At this time, the fat man didn't know whether he was in a hurry or his brain was convulsive, so he actually pulled a thread from the fleece liner he was wearing, and pulled it in the direction to pull out a thick wire that could probably get the height of the water surface at the bottom of the well.
The fat man's fleece lining has also become a vest to cover his fat chest at this time, but fortunately there is a warm underwear inside, otherwise he should be quite funny wearing a vest that can't cover his belly.
The material of this outdoor equipment is extremely strong, and the fat man removed the thick thread similar to the fine wool thread, and he tied the kettle to it and put it down the well.
The spout of the kettle is relatively small, and it took a long time to be pulled up by the fat man, and the thick line was pulled straight, but at the moment when the kettle was pulled out of the darkness, some small episodes occurred.
As soon as the kettle reached the point where the light could reach, I heard a thud of something falling into the well and smashing the water, and I distinctly saw a palm-sized black figure jumping from the kettle.
I looked at the fat man, but found that the fat man didn't care, and was still pulling up, so I pointed to the well and asked the fat man, "Don't you see?" ”
The fat man continued to carry the kettle up, and he had already reached it in his hand in a few clicks: "Alas, I have to say that you city people, it is nothing more than a toad or a snake or something, and you can't see one or two in any well." ”
I want to refute it, if the toad is bigger, it is not a strip to say that the snake is clear. In the end, I choked back. The reason is that I also doubt that I am nervous because of the things I have encountered these days.
The fat man took a big sip and handed me the kettle. I've convinced myself that it's all right, but if it's really the water that a toad has bathed in, that's what makes me feel like it's going to be a mouthful.
The fat man saw that I was embarrassed, and he didn't take the kettle in his hand, so he handed it to Xue Ning, with a sentence attached: "You are a hypocritical Virgo." "I said to myself, how the fuck do you know, but I have to admit it.
Xue Ning may be really thirsty and not taboo, so he poured most of it down. The mouth is really dry and unbearable, and the psychological defense line is broken by himself. I took the kettle and poured a large mouthful, the well water was cold, and the feeling of pouring it into my mouth was quite comfortable. When I drank water, I vaguely heard the fat man say, yes, I don't get sick if I don't drink it cleanly. After all, he still didn't escape the blind theory of the dead fat man.
The kettle of the three of us was filled later, and Xu Qing was fed some, and he spit out most of it, and it seemed that his condition was getting worse and worse, so we packed up our things and hurried on.
When passing through the last ring building, in the center of the road that is seventy or eighty meters wide, a magnificent hall is in the center of this ancient city that has been hidden for thousands of years, and this building is no less spectacular than Tiananmen Square.
We stood in the grass on the wide road under the main hall, and now it seemed that the grandeur of the main hall far exceeded all the words that had been seen from all angles.
The circular base made of stone is more than 20 meters high, and it seems that my estimation on the city wall at that time is still far behind, and the size of the circular base is not much smaller than a stadium with stands on both sides in Xue Ning's words.
After a few minutes of observation, we wanted to make a detour, when suddenly a sharp sound came from the inside of the circular base of the main hall.
"You all have to die, you all have to die."
This sound gave me goosebumps, and after a while, the fat man first said: "We don't take the initiative to find him in this Raba, he also popped out by himself." ”
Only then did I realize that it was Raba's voice and not the evil ghost I had imagined, but this and this, and such a poignant sentence, I had to be terrified when I heard it.
