Chapter 27
Yin Ji's consciousness seemed to be split in half.
Half of it is still itself, staying in the body of the car; The other half resides in a temporary body made of the power of "earth", floating above the cave, like a god, condescendingly looking down on this huge black snake.
The power of the "earth", spreading slightly, soon allowed her to estimate the correct length of the snake.
More than forty feet.
That is, almost a kilometer in length.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, no one would have imagined that among the steepest cliffs of the slope road, in the mountains, there was such a giant snake sleeping!
But Yin Ji's mood was very calm.
"I think I've seen something more terrifying than this." A voice in her heart was telling her, "Compared to the enemies that the 'Heavenly Doctor' once encountered, this snake is not worth mentioning. ”
Moreover, this snake has returned to the big picture, but it does not have a very crazy "qi" like the monster she encountered when the former king died of illness four years ago.
Is it just a giant snake?
Yin Ji didn't want to make too much movement, let the snake wake up, and interfere with the entire team.
She only consciously regarded the power of nature, whether it was the wind between heaven and earth, or the water in the air, or the earth under her feet, as a derivation of her eyes, ears and even consciousness, and refused to miss a single bit from a more three-dimensional angle.
Then she discovered that the serpent was actually coiled over a rock.
This stone exudes a strange "field", Rao is Yin Yin, the moment it touches, there is also a sense of dizziness and wanting to get closer.
It can provide the energy needed for cultivation!
Yin Ji was shocked at first, she never thought that there would be such a heavy treasure here.
But soon, she found that there was a hint of ominousness in this "field".
"Strange." Yin Ji didn't explore the stone for the time being, but shifted her attention to the rock wall next to her, moving the power of "earth" inch by inch, and suddenly found that there was a rock wall that was different from other rock walls, with obvious artificial traces.
She pondered for a moment, covering the strange rock wall with the power of "earth", and soon the rock shattered into sand.
After a while, the rock wall was silently painted, revealing a tunnel.
The tunnel is deep, but Yin Ji is not afraid.
She shapes the "soil" into a temporary body, with the "wind" as her eyes, the "wind" explores the way first, and the "soil" slowly follows. Eventually, at the end of the tunnel, a very rustic altar was found, as well as some frescoes full of vicissitudes around it.
That's a bit tricky.
Even if the "wind" can explore the characters carved on the murals, it can't distinguish the colors of the murals!
Yin Cheng thought for a moment, using the power of "earth" to block the door in the future tense, and then silently used the power of "fire" to illuminate the entire cave!
I didn't hear any reptiles, or floaters being startled.
Again, no mechanism was activated.
Yin Cheng looked at the murals one by one, frowned, and did not say a word.
What these murals tell about, in fact, are two countries? Tribe? Or a war between races?
The people in the mural have extremely distinctive features, one of which has only one arm. Men have left hands and women have right hands, both men and women, with a third eye on their foreheads, riding a bird with two heads.
At first, Yin thought it was some kind of artistic exaggeration, or a special ritual, and the other hand was going to be cut off, but after taking a closer look at the mural, she thought that this race was born like this.
The other side is more like normal humans, except that the murals have deliberately dyed the hair of these people white, and their mounts are ...... Fox?
Yin Cheng carefully pondered the content of the murals, and according to the composition of the rocks and the time when the pigments were dried, she speculated about the molding time of each mural, and probably sorted out an idea.
If the mural is true and not artistically exaggerated, it means that about 3,000 to 2,000 years ago, there were two races, or nations, fighting each other in this place for thousands of years.
The one-armed nation is good at using tools and taming birds. Because the frescoes show the men and women of the one-armed nation always appearing on two-headed birds, and there are huge birds fighting for them, and carrying heavy equipment. Yin Cheng saw something like a catapult, a windmill, and something she couldn't understand the purpose.
And the people of the white-haired country are good at harnessing special energy.
The expression of this point on the mural is wind, fire and water, and all kinds of natural and man-made disasters come in turn.
Yin Ji judged that this altar belonged to the white-haired country, and the reason was very simple - the one on the mural depicted the sacrifice of the white-haired country.
Probably after an unprecedented victory in a battle, these white-haired men and women returned triumphantly and brought all the captives of the one-armed country to the altar to be killed, and above the altar, a man with white hair and golden eyes faintly appeared.
"This kind of expression...... This person doesn't look like a sacrifice. "It's kind of like their god." ”
She keenly noticed that when the mural depicted the man, not only was expensive gold dust deliberately used in the eyes, but it still had enough luster after thousands of years.
What's more, it was a pair of snake-like vertical pupils.
"The snake god?"
Wrong.
Although the builder of the mural did not dare to really draw the face of the white-haired man, or had never seen the other party's true face, whether it was a fairy or a demon, as long as he had seen it, he could actually feel it.
At least, from the mural, the white-haired man feels very "positive", not like a monster.
But maybe, if the monster cultivates to a certain level and the life level is transcendent, in the eyes of ordinary people, maybe it is really a god?
This made Yin Ji fall into even greater confusion.
She can understand the content of the battle between the two countries, but who is this white-haired man?
Judging from the time of the mural, the white-haired country has existed for at least eight hundred years, could it be that this person has been alive all along? And now, is he still alive?
Also, the white-haired country and the one-armed country have been fighting for so many years, and both sides have their own victories and defeats, and no one can completely kill anyone. And in the end, how did these two countries fall?
What about words?
Why is there no written record next to these murals?
Even if it's an unintelligible text, it's better than not having it at all!
"I don't know if there are any related stories circulating in Minjun." Yin Cheng said to herself, "Even if it is a legend in the countryside, as long as it exists, there must be traces." ”
Yin Ji suddenly thought that she could also ask Yin Changying.
Even if Yin Changying didn't know, the Zhao royal family, as the most powerful country among the Seven Kingdoms, had countless books in the palace, and it was impossible for them not to be recorded.
Thinking of this, Yin Hui, who explored the entire cave and recorded the location, dispersed the incarnation of "earth" and withdrew all her consciousness into her body.
I saw her lightly, and a lifelike bird appeared on her fingertips.
