Right in front of them, a majestic gate of four meters tall stood on a snowy slope under the moonlight.

It seems that Jiang Ji's guess is really good, the black eaves that exposed the ice wall before are really the eaves of a temple, the reason why he can see that it is a temple, mainly because in Tibetan Buddhism, there are special ornaments carved on the eaves of the temple, most of the ornaments are eye-shaped, symbolizing the meaning of a thousand hands and a thousand eyes, and the eaves of the stilted corridor are also black, which is because Tibetan Buddhism has a lot of black customs.

At this moment, under the moonlight, the gate of this temple stands in front of everyone's eyes, more than four meters high on both sides of the gate, there are two log pillars with a diameter of about one meter, from this point of speculation, the specifications of this temple are really not small, not to mention that at this moment only the gate is exposed in the ice wall, so it looks like the whole temple should still be hidden in the ice wall, I don't know how big the scale is.

Everyone was stunned for a long time before they were woken up by the cold wind and walked towards the gate.

When I got closer, I found that this gate was all made of wood, and there was no other color, all of them were black and brown, which was relatively distinct from the brightness of the surrounding ice and snow, like a black crystal inlaid on the Gawa Gapu Snow Mountain.

Between the two stout logs, is the gate, the door is divided into two left and right doors, there are delicately carved ornaments similar to the eight treasures of Tibet, Jiang Ji looked at the door for a while, and said something in Tibetan to the old man next to him.

Lao Lai nodded, and explained to everyone: "Jiang Ji said, the eight treasures carved on it are a little different, and they are not the same as those in the temple and the hidden dwellings, I don't know where they come from." ”

At this time, it was Xia Qing on the side who said: "This is not the hidden eight treasures. ”

Everyone looked at Xia Qing in puzzlement, and Xia Qing continued: "This kind of ornament is called Xiangbatu, from the distant western Tibet, it is the historic site of the Zhangxiong civilization, belongs to the earliest Tibetan civilization, and the eight patterns drawn on it represent the eight elements of nature, fire, electricity, wind, water, thought, sound, black, and light, representing the abstract understanding of nature by the Zhangzhung civilization. ”

Everyone was a little stunned when they heard this, but none of them understood, and Gao Chao couldn't help but ask: "You mean to say that this temple belongs to the earliest Tibetan civilization, but ...... But this is not Tibet, how can there be a Tibetan civilization? ”

Xia Qing shook his head and said: "I don't know about this, I once contacted a professor who studied Zhangxiong civilization in Oxford, and he told me that Zhangxiong civilization has a history of at least 3800 years, and there is evidence that it may be even earlier, but Zhangxiong civilization is also imported, to put it simply, Zhangxiong civilization is not native to Tibet, this has always been controversial in academic circles, only know that the earliest Zhangxiong civilization worships Dapeng birds, Zhangxiong two words, also Pengdi meaning, is the habitat of Dapeng birds, However, it is not known where they came from, because there is still little archaeological evidence, so it has added a lot of difficulty to the origin of the Zhangzhung civilization. ”

Speaking of this, Xia Qing said again: "However, the temple in front of us is likely to be related to the Zhangzhung civilization, so if you look at it this way, it is not an important discovery." ”

As he spoke, Xia Qing took out the camera he carried with him and took pictures of the "Eight Pictures of Elephants" on the wooden door.

And the fat man on the side at the moment trembled and said: "I said, let's not engage in scientific research first, you see that we are all about to freeze into popsicles, let's hurry up and think about how to get in!" ”

After the fat man said this, many people also nodded quickly, after all, the temperature on the snowy mountain at this moment has threatened everyone's lives.

Gao Chao hurriedly came to the gate with everyone to see if he could open the door.

But this is not easy, not to mention whether this gate has a lock mechanism, just because it has been frozen for thousands of years, these two gates may have already frozen to death, how can they be opened.

The fat man pushed with brute force, but the cold gate did not move, so the fat man thought of something, and hurriedly said, "Where is kerosene?" Didn't we use kerosene to unseal the ice wall just now, and now we are using kerosene to burn down this gate, so we can't go in? ”

Xia Qing said angrily on the side: "Are you crazy? Do you know how much it would cost to do that? It's a world-class heritage building, and it's very significant......"

Xia Qing hadn't finished speaking, and the fat man didn't say angrily: "I don't know what cultural relics are buildings, I only know that I'm about to freeze to death, if they all fucking freeze to death, what is the fucking point of keeping such a rotten wood?" ”

The two of them quarreled at once, and everyone was helpless on the side, although what the two people said made sense, but after all, they couldn't set fire to burn, not because they had to protect cultural relics and monuments, but mainly because the buildings were wooden structures, if a fire was burned, on this thousand-year-old glacier, I don't know what chain reaction it would cause, and if the ice collapsed again, it would definitely die.

Gao Chao was also thinking about this problem, he thought about it, and then he thought of an idea, so he quickly stopped the quarrel between the fat man and Xia Qing, and then said to Jiang Ji on the side: "Jiang Ji, do Tibetan temples have back doors?" ”

Jiang Ji was stunned for a long time, and it wasn't until Lao Lai explained to him that he understood what Gao Chao meant, and then said something to Lao Lai in Tibetan.

Then Lao Lai nodded, and said helplessly to Gao Chao: "Jiang Ji said, there is no word back door in Tibetan, and the Tibetans do not go through the back door, and of course there are no temples, you can jump over the wall, but you definitely don't open the back door, and the temples that open the back door are all for the Han people." ”

Jiang Ji's face was serious, and he was very helpless, this "back door" was really a unique invention of the Han nation, but Jiang Ji thought about it again at this time: "There is no back door, but there is an eye in the sky." ”

"Sky Eye?" Gao Chao was stunned for a moment and said, "What is Tianyan?" ”

The fat man interjected on the side: "I know, isn't the eye of the sky the eye of Erlang's god's brain?" It is said that you can see ghosts when you open it! ”

Gao Chao ignored the fat man, and Jiang Ji didn't understand what he meant.

Jiang Ji then said a lot to Lao Lai in Tibetan, and Lao Lai understood before explaining: "He said that the eye of heaven is available in many old temples, symbolizing the knowledge of heaven, and is also used to let the Buddha see the cultivation of the monks in the temple, which is generally opened directly above the temple palace, he said that he used to play when he was a child, and climbed on the roof of the temple, and almost fell from the eye of heaven, and was later discovered by the great lama, and almost broke his leg." ”

Tibetan lamas are not like Buddhist monks in the mainland, most of them are Arhat protectors, and they can kill by force.

Gao Chao heard it and felt that there was a play, he looked up and looked up, on the temple gate more than four meters high, there was indeed an eaves, and the eaves were inserted inward in the ice wall, but the exposed part was also more than three meters wide, if the heavenly eye that Jiang Ji said was in this part, then they could have entered from above.

So Gao Chao discussed it with Da Lao Hei, and thought about climbing up to take a look, if they really found the location of the eye of the sky, then they would save a lot of trouble, neither to destroy the cultural relics, but also to save energy.

But now if you want to climb up, it doesn't seem to be so easy, if you take a ladder now, it's not as simple as before, at this moment the eaves on the gate are stretched outward, and stretch out 2 meters wide, what kind of skill does it take to climb up; Second, the surrounding ice walls are also straight up and down, even if they want to go up from the side, they have to build four layers of human ladders, which is too dangerous, if they fall down and break their legs, they will definitely die; In the end, it was freezing and snowy, and the temperature was extremely cold, and at this moment they were all frozen to stiff hands and feet, and if they climbed up like this, they might not even be able to use their hands, let alone be impossible.

At this moment, Lao Lai measured it on the side, he estimated the height, glanced at the eaves of the stilted house, and suddenly showed a trace of pride on his face.
