Chapter 45: The Mural
Lin Zixuan, who had been in shock, did not look at the surrounding tombs with a sigh until he touched the bronze terracotta warriors and horses in the entire main hall, intending to go to the depths of the mausoleum.
The main hall is about 100 meters wide and is located in a huge cave, but the four walls of the cave have obvious traces of artificial carving, which is not completely natural.
Around the main hall, there is an aisle in each of the four directions of east, south, west, and north, which obviously leads to other burial chambers.
"Lingling, which way are we going?" Lin Zixuan, who didn't know how to choose, asked the little fox.
"I don't know, except for the main hall, Grandpa Turtle won't let me go anywhere else, saying that there are strange insects." The little fox's turquoise pupils blinked and looked at Lin Zixuan.
"Strange bugs?" Lin Zixuan looked at the snow-white little fox on his shoulder suspiciously, and he didn't know if it was an illusion, Lin Zixuan faintly smelled a faint fragrance from the little fox.
"Grandpa Turtle said that those strange insects will stiffen and die without air, and they can survive for 10,000 years, and as soon as there is air, they will come to life and look for meat everywhere to eat." Lingling's sweet voice said to Lin Zixuan.
"Ten thousand years?" The corners of Lin Zixuan's mouth twitched, a fox that came out of the wall, and a turtle grandfather, Lin Zixuan was no longer surprised by these strange things, but hearing that a bug can live for ten thousand years, even if it was in a state of suspended animation, still made Lin Zixuan stunned for a while.
"No, let's go in and have a look, I'm going to go inside and get something important." Lin Zixuan groaned for a while, gritted his teeth, and said.
"Alright then, Lingling will go in with you." The little fox lying on Lin Zixuan's shoulder tilted his head and said.
"Woo", "Woo" Rhubarb lay on the ground and grinned at the little fox on Lin Zixuan's shoulder.
Lingling climbed up Lin Zixuan's shoulder on his own, and the rhubarb roared a lot, but the little fox didn't like to take care of it at all, and seemed to feel that Shi Ao's wisdom was too low and he lost his identity.
Lin Zixuan patted Shi Ao's head and said, "Don't scream, go ahead and explore the way." ”
"Wang" "Wang"
Rhubarb reluctantly screamed twice, then turned and walked towards the stone path to the east.
"Let's go this way first and see if we can find the main tomb." Lin Zixuan looked at the broken stone wall, still holding the torn knife bag in his hand, wiping the wall cleanly, and watching the carved lines on it.
There are countless patterns carved on the stone wall in the tomb road to the east, although it is broken, but Lin Zixuan can roughly deduce the content of the mural by guessing.
The first mural connecting the main hall with text tells the story of the Qin State, which was a small country in the northwest frontier at the time, and was devastated by the Six Kingdoms, and is now on the verge of extinction.
On the screen, the people of Qin are not happy, the corpses are floating for thousands of miles, and the country is no longer a country.
The second mural depicts Qin Xiangong dying on the battlefield. Then it is recorded that the young Zhong Gongzi Qu Liang ascended the throne at a time of crisis, he hid deep humiliation, survived under the siege of the Six Kingdoms, and vowed to change the law and rise.
The third mural is much larger than the first two, and the text is almost intact, recording that Qin Xiaogong Qu Liang recruited the world's virtuous people, and Shang Ying, who had no ambition in the Wei State, came to the Qin State and was reused by Qin Xiaogong by virtue of his talent and sober understanding of the situation in the world. The Shang Dynasty set off far-reaching and controversial reforms in the Qin state, and a generation of powerful Qin rose from it.
The fourth mural completely records the whole process of the strength and prosperity of the entire Qin State, after the Shang Dynasty reform, the Qin State really stepped onto the stage of the Warring States Period, and the relationship between the countries continued to reshuffle. Su Qin entered Wei to lobby the six countries to form an alliance and form a joint encirclement of Qin, and Qin fell into an unprecedented crisis. The young king's appointment of Zhang Yi also solved the trouble of the Qin State, and was once again rumored to be a political talk, and then in the Great War of the Nations, the Qin State launched four major battles in Changping, annihilating more than one million troops of Han, Wei, Qi, Chu, and Zhao, which made a fundamental turning point between Qin and the growth and decline of the countries, and since then, the Qin State has risen completely.
The fifth mural is also the most complete preserved stroke on this stone road, after King Yingzheng of Qin ascended the throne, the four emperors of the heavens, swept the six-in-one unified Shenzhou, completely ended the Warring States Period, and achieved the most magnificent epic in Chinese history. Ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang, cast the jade seal of the country with He's bi, called himself Qin Shi Di, and became the first emperor in Chinese history.
Gently stroking the strokes, Lin Zixuan imagined the magnificence of the Warring States Period and the iron-blooded pride of the battle of the great world, and there was inevitably some surging blood in his heart.
"The host's eyes should be on the Milky Way, there are nearly 100 million planets suitable for life in the entire Milky Way, and the Earth is just a speck of dust that is so small that even the sand is shimmering. And you, who have inherited the glory of the Agulantsted Empire, will easily set foot in the starry sky and explore the endless starry sky. At this time, the voice of the blue will sounded, and I don't know if it was an illusion, Lin Zixuan seemed to feel a bit of fanaticism in the female voice of the electronic synthesis.
Lin Zixuan couldn't help but be silent for a moment, and muttered to himself: "Yes, I am always a little unwilling to think about it suddenly, the galaxy is so mysterious and magnificent, vast and boundless, and I can only be like an ant, shrinking a corner." ”
"What is the Milky Way?" Lingling looked at Lin Zixuan suspiciously.
Lin Zixuan was slightly stunned and smiled: "We live on the earth, the outside of the earth is the universe, and the Milky Way is a part of the universe." ”
"Do we live on Earth? What is Earth? Is it a ball? Lingling blinked at Lin Zixuan with big green eyes.
"Uh." Facing this dazed and ignorant little fox, Lin Zixuan didn't know how to answer, but asked tentatively: "You don't, you still think the sky is round, right?" ”
"Yes, the great god of Pangu came out of chaos, after opening the world, the female doll Niangniang created all living beings, of course the sky is round, of course the earth is square, Lingling went out to see the ends of the world." The little fox Lingling said proudly, as if he was proud of his big dreams.
"Huh... Ha ha... Hahahahaha..."Lin Zixuan couldn't help laughing, until the tears of laughter flowed out, and then stopped, thinking that these fox demons are still feudal superstitious thoughts, this time I want to go out to teach the little fox well, so that she can also learn science.
"You... What are you laughing at? Lingling's little face full of white hair actually flushed with pink, and he asked in annoyance.
"It's nothing, I just think Lingling is amazing." Lin Zixuan disguised it quite falsely, looked at the little fox with unkind eyes, and hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, I will definitely accompany you to see the ends of the earth when I go out." ”
"Retractor." The little fox actually stretched out a finger on his little paw, and then looked at Lin Zixuan.
"Who learned this from?" Lin Zixuan muttered in his mouth, but he hooked the little fox's little paw in his hand and said, "The hook will not change for a hundred years." ”
After pulling the hook, the little fox's white-haired little face actually showed a smile humanely, and happily lay on Lin Zixuan's shoulder and said, "You are a good person." ”
The corners of his mouth twitched, Lin Zixuan patted his forehead and continued to walk forward.
Behind the five huge murals are all dilapidated small characters, but unfortunately they are all incomplete, and even Lin Zixuan can't understand them.
"Click" "Click"
A creepy clicking sound suddenly came from the darkness in the distance, startling Lin Zixuan immediately turned the flashlight, and the orange-yellow light clearly illuminated a thin corpse, and walked slowly.
