Chapter Seventy-Five: What I Saw in the Ancient Cave

The atmosphere in the cave suddenly became awkward.

I only felt hot all over, listening to Liu Ruyan's heavy gasps, and I didn't know if I was tired from the wild run just now, or I was angry with what I did just now.

It was pouring rain outside, and when you stood inside the cave and looked out, it was as if water had fallen from the sky, and all the mountains and trees had fallen into a haze, which was a poetic scene if it weren't for the terrible experience before.

In order to avoid the embarrassment of making eye contact, I consciously moved my eyes from the outside of the cave to the ground inside the cave, and only then did I notice the appearance of the cave.

There are also many caves in the mountains around Kofun Village, and nature is a natural architect, and under his skill, he has created many magical things, and various caves are one of them, but after a glance, I conclude that this cave is not a masterpiece of nature, at least it has been artificially modified.

The stone walls of the cave are relatively smooth, with faint artificial notches.

At first glance, the carved marks on the cave wall were all over the place, and they seemed to be scribbled by children, but after a closer look, I could see the clues.

I found that the marks on the walls of the cave were not done all at once, as if they were originally carved with sharp tools, and later "destroyed the corpses" with knives and axes.

The cave seemed to be so deep that with my extraordinary eyesight I couldn't see the end, and at a glance, the walls on both sides were almost all notched, and there were traces of first carving, and then "destroying the corpse".

Liu Ruyan was also attracted by the carvings on the cave, and walked towards the stone wall on one side.

"Little Evil ...... You see, there are a few words here...... "Liu Ruyan didn't have the kind of childishness that most girls have, as if as soon as he saw the nicks on the cave wall, he instantly forgot about the unpleasant things before."

Word? I walked over a few steps, and I saw a few very vague words engraved in front of the cave wall where Liu Ruyan was squatting.

"College student, why don't I know these words? You can translate it! ”

Liu Ruyan quipped.

I also crouched down and looked at the words on the cave wall. It's seven and a half in total, and there's one word that's half left. These words looked like Chinese characters, but I read them side by side, and I didn't even recognize any of them.

it! What's the situation?

There are only 7,500 commonly used and basically used Chinese characters in China, and I know at least 4,500 of them.

Could it be the script used by ethnic minorities in ancient times? When I looked again, I realized that although I didn't recognize them, they looked very familiar, where should I have seen them......

Where? My mind carefully searched for the memories related to it, and suddenly it was like a lightning bolt, when I followed Uncle Huang, Uncle Mingyue, and Uncle Wang into the Yin Cave, I saw similar words on the stone tablet.

I dare to conclude that this is the same language family.

Recognizing the words in this cave and the words in the cave under the ancient burial village, the shock in my heart is indescribable, just now I saw the bronze statue of Guiguzi on the stone platform again, and at this time I saw the same mysterious words. What does this mean? Could it be that there is some kind of relationship between the Valley of Dragons and the Valley of the Shadows?

Think about it, if it is really as Uncle Huang said, there were people in this valley three thousand years ago, then it happens to be about the same time as Guiguzi's time......

My eyes swept to the notch on the cave wall again, and a question suddenly popped into my mind: who is it, and why did he go to great lengths to engrave words and symbols on the cave wall, and then spend more effort to destroy it!

In my sophomore year of high school, I had a strong interest in the history of the pre-Qin culture, especially the primitive society, and in those months, I read more than a dozen books describing primitive tribes in one go, one of which introduced the totem culture of primitive tribes, and there is such a narrative in the book:

During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, because writing was not yet widely used, coupled with the lack of writing tools, many tribes or large families always maintained the tradition of "carving walls". The so-called wall carving refers to carving very important things in the tribe or family into the cave wall in the form of words or pictures.

It is said that this method was also used in folk religion and funerals in the pre-Qin period.

In fact, after Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, in addition to burning books and pit Confucianism, there was another thing that also caused a sensation in the historiography circles, that is, in just over a decade, almost all the "carved walls" left by religions were completely destroyed. For more than 2,000 years, historians of all dynasties have put forward different hypotheses about this, but they have not been able to find strong evidence.

The record of this aspect is almost blank in the field of historiography.

I was looking at the notches on the cave wall, falling into boundless contemplation, and suddenly I saw Liu Ruyan who didn't know when she had walked to the door of the cave, staring blankly at the heavy rain like a waterfall outside the cave.

She has Yaxing! After I smiled bitterly, I shouted: "Liu Da Beauty, isn't this scene very poetic at this time!" ”

Who knew that Liu Ruyan didn't pay attention to me, and still looked outside in a daze.

Woman! It's really like the song "Don't guess the girl's thoughts, you can't guess it, you can't guess it, I don't know why she's chattering, and I don't know why she's in a daze......"

I didn't pay attention to her anymore, but walked in front of Wang Qianmo, who had been in a coma.

Wang Qianmo's eyes were still closed, but at this time, a lot of blood had recovered on his face. I touched her snort, it was very even, and it should be fine.

I took out the kettle from my bag, gently poured two sips of Wang Qianmo, and then helped him rub his limbs and neck to prevent stiffening. After all this was done, I looked up again and saw Liu Ruyan still staring blankly at the outside of the cave.

"What do you see? So fascinating! ”

At this time, Liu Ruyan slowly turned around: "I just saw a person standing in the heavy rain outside!" ”

As soon as I heard her words, I couldn't believe my ears, and my head suddenly "buzzed": "You...... What do you say......"

"I just saw a man standing outside...... A tall man......"

This time, when I was sure I heard correctly, my head exploded.

"You...... You should be wrong" Although I was sure I heard it correctly, I definitely didn't believe what she said, what kind of place is this? How could anyone be? She must have read it wrong......

Liu Ruyan shook his head gently: "I'm not sure, I stared at it for a few minutes just now, and vaguely saw the silhouette of a person appear outside, and then ...... Then it disappeared, and I'm not quite sure if it was human, and if it wasn't human, what was it? ”
