Chapter 102: Ruins of the Ancient Kingdom of Yamatai
As she spoke, Laura's voice slowly became a little low and choked.
Rose's voice couldn't help but feel a little bit of emotion and fear: "Oh, God...... Where are you, Laura? Is it safe now? β
"It's really scary, it's all my fault, it's all my fault......"
Laura didn't listen to what he was saying, just choked up and kept talking, and the fear, fear, grievance, remorse, and helplessness that had accumulated before exploded at this moment.
After all, no one thought that such a thing would happen, and the most important thing was to change the course and drive towards the east of the Dragon Triangle, but her proposal.
She felt that she had to be held accountable for this, and if she hadn't asked for a change of course, everyone wouldn't have encountered such a thing.
"Laura! Listen to me, before I gave up on the Forbearance, I was sending out a distress signal in the hope that someone would receive it. β
Rose sighed, then forcibly interrupted her self-pity in a categorical tone: "I've already contacted the others, and everyone is going to come over to meet ...... on my side."
At this point, he didn't go on, but the meaning was obvious.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
Laura, who was interrupted from her previous state, couldn't help but shake her head after biting her lower lip and listening, and whispered in a voice with some sadness and fear: "Please come here to find me......"
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
After a moment of silence on the other side, he whispered, "I have to stay here, you can, Laura." Do you remember the time we climbed Shoton Mountain together? The secret is to know that you can't stop, just keep going......"
"Just go down......" Laura muttered to herself.
"Remember everything I've taught you, Laura, and you'll be fine. Also, remember to turn on the radio. β
ββ¦β¦ Good. She pursed her lips tightly, but finally nodded.
When the call was over, Laura put down the radio communicator and sat there with her knees folded, staring blankly ahead, not knowing what she was thinking.
Mo Chen next to him waited for a moment before he said calmly: "I suggest that you don't have to be in such a hurry, eat something first, and then deal with your injuries, and wait until you are well rested before leaving......"
"Ah, yes, that's right......"
Laura stared at him blankly, came back to her senses after a while, and finally muttered to herself.
That's right, it's not a good idea to be in a daze here, you have to go down and join Rose, and the secret is not to stop yourself.
Besides, it's not that there is no one on his side, at least not alone, although the young man next to him still doesn't know him, but it seems to be the same as himself, at least not the crazy people before.
She thought so, and reached out again to pick up the food she had just put aside, ready to start replenishing her strength.
But at this time, Mo Chen next to him had already stood up, reached out and patted the dust on his body, and turned to look at the direction of the road leading to the valley below.
Laura suddenly felt anxious, and she hurriedly shouted: "That, please wait a minute, where are you going?" If you don't mind, we can walk together. β
Mo Chen glanced back at her, spread his hands and smiled: "Don't worry, I just want to go and take a look at the situation around first, and I have no intention of leaving immediately for the time being......"
"Then we'll be able to see it together later, I-I...... That, that......"
Laura breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and then felt that her reaction just now was a little too aggressive, and she suddenly felt a little embarrassed, so she quickly changed the topic and said-
"By the way, I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Laura Crawford, may I ask ...... you?"
She did feel very embarrassed, after all, she was nervous last night, and she was very wary of each other, and the result was that the whole night passed without saying a word, and they didn't even know each other's names.
- Of course, it was she who unilaterally thought that the two sides didn't even know each other's names.
And the other party also takes care of himself so much, not only food, but also medicine for himself.
It's just that she feels that she has just regained contact with her lost companion, and she can't help but act a little out of control, but let the other party see the joke.
The most important thing is that she was so distracted just now that she completely forgot to talk to Rose about the other party.
"Mo Chen, you can just call me Mo Chen."
After thinking about it, Mo Chen finally sat back next to the campfire, and then changed to Chinese characters and said his name in a straight voice.
"Hey, wait, are you Chinese? Oh my God, your English is so good, I didn't hear it at all. β
After repeating the pronunciation with some difficulty, and chewing for a while, Laura suddenly reacted with her eyes wide open.
"yes, well, you'll just treat me as a tourist......"
Mo Chen said concisely, and seemed to inadvertently intersperse a vague message in it.
"Because of the previous incident, I didn't take a plane and chose to sail away by boat, but I didn't expect to suddenly encounter that terrible storm yesterday."
He planned to see if he could get something out of the other party's mouth by knocking on the side in this way, after all, some things are really not easy to ask directly.
"The previous incident? Oh, it's because of the celestial events, right? β
Laura was just confused for a moment, and immediately became aware of the context, "We too, but the boat is to come to the Dragon Triangle to find the ru......ins of the rumored ancient kingdom of Yamatai."
She couldn't help but sigh when she said this, turned her head away, and looked at the extinguished fire with a somewhat lost expressionβ
"It's just that the ruins of the ancient kingdom of Yamatai haven't been found yet, and they encountered the previous storm, and as a result, the Perseverance ran aground, and we were also separated......"
"It's not your fault, the previous storm was a bit ...... All in all, very abnormal. β
Mo Chen bowed his head lightly and said pointedly.
However, he didn't want to be seen as a neurotic until there was more evidence, so he just stopped on the topic and moved on to another topic:
"It's just that I don't think you've failed, or maybe this island is indeed the site of the ancient kingdom of Yamatai."
Lara Crawford actually knew about the "Celestial Incident", and it seems that it can be confirmed that it is not the Rubik's Cube that has traveled to another world with the whole ship, but this world is originally the world of "Tomb Raider".
Moreover, this is still the area of the Dragon Triangle, which is located in the coastal waters of the 11th District and the North Pacific Ocean. I hadn't paid attention to the cruise ship's route before, but I guessed from the schedule that it might be just the time to pass through the 11th district.
Mo Chen sighed so much in his heart, he felt that he had discovered the truth-
At least all the clues at the moment point to that explanation, and the time and place can be matched, so he naturally thinks that this is the truth of the matter.
"What, this is Yamadai?"
Laura blinked, then said in disbelief.
"But I don't see any ruins to prove it, and you're not a wrecked tourist, why do you know this?"
"The ruins are definitely not on the outskirts of the island, and you should only see them if you keep walking. Besides, I just don't think there's any evidence to prove it......"
Mo Chen said in a speculative tone, making it clear in advance that he was not prepared to take responsibility for his remarks.
"Just when you talk about the ancient kingdom of Yamadai, don't you think of Himiko? Legend has it that she can call the wind and rain, even if it is a legend, it may not be a reason for the wind to come out of nowhere, since it can be widely circulated, then there is a little bit of evidence, right? β
Himiko was the queen of the Yayoi period of the 11th ward, and her true identity has been debated, and she was a mysterious ancient female ruler and the originator of the ancient Japanese religion Oni-Taoism.
Since the Edo period, there has been a lot of discussion and research on who is equivalent to Himiko in Kojiki and Japanese Shoki, but unfortunately it has not been verified.
After all, there is no clear record in the history books that can be seen today, and the various events of the Yamatai Kingdom recorded in Wei Zhi's "Biography of the Japanese People" are not recorded in the history books of the 11th district itself.
It is said that there is a more credible theory that the legendary character of Himiko is actually the prototype of "Amaterasu", the main god of Shinto, the head of the three noble sons, the lord of Takamagahara, and the goddess of the great day who shines the heavens and the earth.
Because legend has it that she is able to manipulate the sun, call out the storm, and harness the forces of nature.
And according to astronomical calculations, two solar eclipses were visible in the Kitakyushu region around around the time of Himiko's death. This statement is consistent with the record of the god Amaterasu hiding in the Tenwado in the Takamagahara mythology, and the world was thus lightless.
In addition, by statistically using the average reign of the emperor, it is also possible to calculate the overlap between the era of Himiko and the era of Amaterasu.
"That's right, that's right, that's what I thought!"
Laura's eyes suddenly lit up, and she suddenly felt a feeling of meeting a soulmate in the mountains and rivers, and she couldn't help but be greatly excited.
"I've used this to convince Ross that they're going the other way, otherwise we'd be heading in the other direction."
I don't know what came to mind, she put down the food in her hand, then turned around and took out a digital video camera, turned it on and fumbled for a while, and soon a sound came from inside, showing an image.
Immediately after that, she came over and wanted to show Mo Chen the image she had taken: "Look, that's it, I was arguing with Dr. Whitman at that time...... Ahem, I mean, discussion ......"
"Uh, this ......"
Mo Chen couldn't help but laugh dumbly, did she not understand the seriousness of the problem, or as long as she said something she was interested in, she couldn't hold back?
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Laura had a lot of injuries on her body, but they were all abrasions and the like, which didn't have much impact, and the most serious injury was her left abdomen, which was pierced by steel bars in the cave.
Fortunately, important organs were avoided, but Mo Chen could only speculate if she was rude, and it was impossible to take the initiative to help her with medicine or anything.
So when she said that there was no problem, Mo Chen could only believe that it was really no problem, at least it would not affect her actions.
And by the time the two of them were ready to leave the makeshift camp at the foot of the cliff, it was dark again, and the moon was quietly shining behind the clouds, casting a silvery veil of light over the earth.
The reason why they chose to set off at this time was because they suddenly heard a strange song coming from the direction of the valley. The two of them meandered down the mountain road into the depths of the valley, where a stream flowed through the ravines, making a gurgling sound.
The trees are staggered, the moonlight casts a little glow through the cracks, and from time to time there is a melodious and long deer chirping, this secluded scenery is a wonderful view, but it is a pity that neither of them is in the mood to appreciate it.
Upon coming to the vicinity of the stream, Laura's attention was immediately drawn to the upside-down object on a tall tree next to the stream.
"Oh my God...... What's going on here? β
With her exclamation, the corpse hanging upside down from the tree also shook slightly in the night wind.
"It's clear that we're not the only ones on this island." Mo Chen said without any fluctuations in his tone, not to mention that he had known it for a long time, even if he didn't know it, he didn't have any feelings about such a scene, "And their attitude doesn't seem to be very good." β
ββ¦β¦ Again, those people are simply crazy. β
Laura probably remembered what happened yesterday, and couldn't help but muttered hatefully.
