Chapter 66: The Heaven is Round

Everyone looked up at the majestic city walls, all made of large blocks of dark stone bricks, hard and cold, unbreakable.

This black ancient city suddenly made everyone feel a cold feeling, it was a murderous aura.

In front of the ancient city, there is a tall round arch gate, about eight meters high, both gates are very heavy, covered with vermilion lacquer, exuding a majestic atmosphere. The city gate is inlaid with several thick copper skins and glittering copper nails, and there is a faint momentum of thousands of troops, which makes people breathless. The red paint on the city gate was like human blood, as if it had just been painted.

A ray of light shone in the air, and the ancient city fell silent, like a dead city.

The crowd did not rush into the city, but walked around the ancient city, which was square, and the other three sides were high walls, and there was no other entrance except the front gate.

The underground cavern space is even larger, forming a (half) spherical space, and the construction technology is very precise and mature, and the construction of this place must be a huge project.

However, no other passages were found in the cave.

The only goal (the only way) for everyone now is the ancient city.

Everyone walked to the suffocating city gate and looked carefully, and the two vermilion gates were closed, and they seemed to have a thousand powers, and they could not be opened.

Zhou De and the others carefully checked the gate, but did not find the mechanism, Nanyang said: "I don't know how much force it takes to push this gate, I'll let Ah Hu and the pillar try it first." ”

Ah Hu and Zhu listened to the order, immediately put down their equipment, took out crowbars, miniature jacks and other tools, and prepared to start, Gao Qin said, "Please wait a minute!" I'm afraid that this kind of prying will destroy the monuments, so let me try first. ”

Zhou De said: "You all stay away, and no one is allowed to touch the door." He walked to the door, carefully placed his hand on the gate, and gave it a gentle push.

A cold wind came from the crack in the door, and the seemingly heavy and tall city gate was suddenly pushed open by a small crack, not only everyone was surprised, but even Zhou De was stunned: This tall city gate has gone through thousands of years, and it is so light, it can be opened with a light push!

Zhou De exerted a little force, and the tall city gate slowly opened, and everyone looked inside, and there was a bustling street in front of them.

When the gate was pushed open, a wide road was revealed, and the ground was paved with blue stone slabs. On both sides of the road are pavilions and pavilions, and there are dense trees in front of and behind the houses.

Everyone was a little stunned: this ancient site has been buried underground for at least hundreds of years, how come the trees are still alive?

Ah Hu held a submachine gun, cautiously walked through the city gate, looked around, and said to Nanyang: "Report, confirm safety!" ”

And they all passed through the gates and entered into the city. At this time, they looked around and found that the ancient city was far more prosperous and rich than they had imagined.

Everyone wondered: Was this ancient city inhabited in the first place, and then buried in the ground, or was it built in this ground?

Nanyang took out the telescope, looked into the distance, and took out the heat detector to detect, but did not find anyone around.

Such a big city, with neat buildings and roads leading in all directions, is actually an empty city.

Xu Ming said while taking pictures: "Nanyang, as I inferred, this place was definitely built by an ancient powerful figure, you see, such a pomp and circumstance, such a huge project, without the use of national strength and the time it took decades, it is impossible to build at all." ”

Everyone agrees with Xu Yang's opinion, this ancient city looks like the capital of a certain country, but it is condensed in space. To be able to have such abundant manpower, financial resources, and material resources to build such a mysterious and majestic underground building is only possible for the emperor or the prince and general who holds great power.

Gao Qin looked at Xu Ming, his eyes were full of admiration, since he became famous, his senior brother has been a little undown-to-earth, always opportunistic to gain fame and fortune, and gave up his smart mind. It's been a long time since she's seen her brother so high-spirited.

Gao Qin and Xu Ming carefully observed the style of the building, hoping to judge the age and background of the ancient city.

Nanyang turned to look at the city gate, and found that the tall city gate would slowly close after being pushed open.

Although the city gate was very light and moved with a slight push, Nanyang still ordered the pillar to be pressed between the two city gates with a miniature jack just in case to prevent any hidden mechanism at the city gate, so as to keep the way out.

After Zhou De entered the city, he first looked at the pattern of the surrounding buildings, and then kept looking up at the "starlight" formed by the gems on the dome, and suddenly, his eyes lit up, as if he understood something.

Qiu Tian stood beside Zhou De and asked, "Master Zhou, do you have any opinions?" ”

Zhou De seemed to say to himself: "...... This is indeed the 'world'. ”

Nanyang said, "Master Zhou, what exactly are you referring to?" ”

Zhou De said: "'Heaven and earth are round' is a concept that has existed in China since ancient times, and it will last forever. And here the circle is the sky, and the ancient city of the four directions is the earth, which is exactly in line with this ancient philosophical thought. He went on to say: "In the eyes of the ancients, the earth is square, the sky is round, the ancients thought that the sky is round and the place is round, and also the circle square is the name of heaven and earth. In other words, this ancient city represents the 'world'. ”

Xu Ming put down the camera in his hand and said, "Hmph, Master Zhou, let's talk about it, do you mean that this is a place for cultivating immortals, or some kind of demons and monsters." Now that the evidence is so obvious, this is the underground palace or mausoleum built by some emperor or prince, why are you still unwilling to admit your mistake? ”

Zhou De's face was arrogant, and he said: "You young people can only find answers from books and read from books, how can you really find anything?" This place was indeed built by a powerful person, but the purpose of building this place is indeed to feather and ascend to immortality! ”

Gao Qin said: "In this way, is it that a certain emperor or prince will become an immortal?!" ”

Everyone was a little surprised: in the long history, there are too many emperors who want to live forever and become immortals, too many to mention, but most of these emperors rely on refining elixirs and seeking elixirs to realize their fantasies, and no one has ever built such a monument or tried such a method.

Zhou De pointed to the sky and said, "Look at the astrological charts in the sky!" ”

Gao Qin and the others looked up at the dome and saw countless gems shining like starlight, Gao Qin and Xu Ming looked at it carefully, and they all said, "Huh? After a sigh, I found some problems: the layout of the stars in the sky seems to be arbitrary, but the bright starlight in it is actually caused by the 28 star officials selected by the ancients for observing the celestial phenomena and the movement of the sun, moon and five stars, that is, the 28 constellations.

Moreover, there is also a problem with the direction of the position of these twenty-eight nakshatras!

Xu Ming said dumbfoundedly: "These twenty-eight constellations are reversed? ”

Zhou De nodded and said, "Yes." The Tai Chi Bagua diagram we saw before is also very special, it is not usually seen, it seems that there is an unprecedented ancient sect here, which uses an unprecedented method to make people cultivate into immortals. ”

After hearing this, everyone felt a burst of excitement and nervousness in their hearts, this ancient site seems to be really extraordinary.

Gao Qin's eyes flickered, and he was full of heroism, and said, "Then we are really in the right place, if we can find someone who cultivates here to become an immortal, we will be able to find out the ins and outs." ”

Xu Ming said: "Even so, this is a feudal superstition, such a situation is not uncommon, this is just a monument." We should still treat it with a normal heart. ”

Zhou De didn't speak, he looked at the center of the ancient city, where surrounded by walls and a splendid hall stood tall. Zhou De's gaze seemed to be thinking of someone.
