【Chapter 412】King Xing

Luo Wen regretted a little when he entered the door, the two catties of the sea knew what he wanted, but the other party was obviously not weak, if Zu Long fought alone, Luo Wen believed that even if Zu Long suffered a loss, at least according to his ability and character, his life naturally did not need to be considered, and he would always run away if he couldn't fight.

But the sea is different, this kid has a tendon, the thoughts in his head are always lacking, and he can't say when he will give you a surprise wrong fan, in case he falls into the trap of the other party, the little brain will be explained.

At this time, Rowan had already entered the tower of this similar corridor for some distance, and he couldn't help but be afraid for a while when he thought of this, so he hurriedly retreated, but before he could retreat to the door, he heard a loud noise in his ears! Rowan hurried to speed up, and when he arrived at the door, he found that the door was closed at the moment!

Rowan stepped forward and pushed, bumped and slammed, but the door seemed to be welded, and it didn't move, and there was no trace of the mechanism! Rowan was dumbfounded, and looked out with his eyes against the crack in the door, but there was a tooth groove on the side of the door, pressing the two doors tightly, Rowan lit a cigarette and looked around, then sighed and continued to set off towards the tower.

Rowan walked in this corridor for a while, and saw a bright light in front of him, this bright light was swaying, obviously not natural light, when Rowan walked out of this corridor, he couldn't help but gasp, he really didn't expect this tower to be such a scene!

Rowan thought that there must be a lot of mechanisms inside this tower, all kinds of strange passages and unexpected things one after another, but in fact, the structure of this tower is too simple, or this can't be called a tower at all, it's just a giant chimney!

The inner walls of this tower are ring-shaped, and the internal structure of the chimney is the same, except that the diameter of the tower itself is too large, which makes the large chimney look somewhat empty. Leaning on Rowan's right, a rather neat and thick stone staircase spiraled up the wall, forming an internal thread in the tower as if rifling.

And at intervals. There will be a break in the stone staircase, and at each break stands a bronze winch, which is densely wrapped with a rather thick rope, apparently to facilitate the carrying platform for the transport of goods to the staircase, and along the stone staircase there is a brazier hanging on the wall at intervals, illuminating the place.

The ground in front of Rowan was full of all kinds of stones and objects, piled up on the ground in a mess, and all kinds of tools were at his feet, but they were quite neatly arranged. However, it can also be seen that the hammer and other things used to dig inside are all gone, and Rowan can't help but think of the dead bodies of slaves from before. But what really shocked Luo Wen was that in the middle of this pile of stones, there was a huge bronze pillar with a diameter of dozens of meters!

This bronze pillar is so big! At this distance, it is simply a building made of bronze, wrapped in this chimney-like tower, if the Dinghaishen needle and gold hoop rod used by Sun Wukong is indeed something, it is estimated that it will be poked in front of him!

The bronze pillar is now covered in green oxide patina. But it couldn't cover the exquisite carvings on the top, and Rowan didn't dare to take a closer look, so as not to completely expose himself to the hollow, after all, there was Xing Song in front of him. I had to look at it from afar.

This bronze pillar is carved with a narrative scene, because this bronze pillar is so big, you can imagine how difficult and large the carving is, and because of this. This scene is also incomparably magnificent!

The huge group of carvings is almost overwhelming, with a single vertical height of more than ten meters, and the characters in it are vividly carved. Everything is as small as the shutter shot, and then the firelight is beautiful!

The first picture is a man dressed in a robe similar to that of an ethnic minority sitting on a throne, his face is not ugly, quite an ordinary face, but below is tens of thousands of people kneeling in front of him, arranged quite neatly.

Because the age of the carving does not pay attention to perspective, there is no difference between near and far, and these kneeling figures are carved of the same size, and almost all the people at the height feel like they will fall from the bronze pillar. Rowan remembered the room where he had just passed by the robed human skin corpse, and if he guessed correctly, this was the scene depicting the ministers bowing down at that time.

And this bronze pillar is really too big, from the hall pillar in the picture to the small folds and hair of the characters, all of which are vividly expressed, which also makes the whole picture almost occupy the bronze pillar on Rowan's side, so Rowan began to slowly follow the carving along the stone staircase to the top.

The next part of the picture has a serious sense of disconnection, because the latter one does not depict the man's life feats according to common sense, nor does it show his outstanding achievements, but jumps directly to a picture similar to the funeral hall of the mourning hall.

Dressed in white and brocade, everyone is mourning, not like the tall Han people's spiritual shed paper money flying, but similar to what kind of ceremony is being held, a long-haired man holding a cane, standing next to the person who was on the throne just now, and this man who is on the throne is lying on a similar collapse with a calm face at the moment. The people below all knelt on the ground, and there was hardly much difference except for their solemn expressions full of sadness.

Obviously, there is a story in the middle of these two reliefs that is difficult for the builder to tell, because the man who occupies the throne has a very clearly carved broken line around his neck, which is different from the folds of the garment, and is much deeper than the folds of the garment, so that the man must have been beheaded and died! This just confirms Luo Wen's previous speculation, this city is indeed Yelang Country, and this man should be the last king of Yelang Country, Xing!

If this is the case, Rowan thinks that this story makes sense, according to records, Chen Li, the commander of Qiqi County, cut down the rebellion, that is, after that, the Yelang Kingdom disappeared from the history books, and the Yelang Kingdom became a mystery-like country, the capital does not know where it is, and the subjects do not know whether there is it.

In this way, this first relief depicts the scene of Xing's reign, but the person who cast the bronze pillar is obviously ashamed to mention how Xing's country and family collapsed, so he skips this paragraph and connects directly to the scene after Xing's death.

Rowan held the winch and jumped over a break, while carefully looking at whether there were ambushes or traps around, and kept glancing at the relief that turned around, he really couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, not only to satisfy his curiosity, but more importantly, Rowan always felt that it was no coincidence that he came here, if all this was related to this interest, then the more he learned here, the more helpful he would be in his future judgment and actions.

The next relief Rowan looked a little familiar, the long-haired man holding something like a bamboo slip, pointing to a palace that was not very majestic, and the palace had been destroyed from the very middle, and a huge tower had been built there!

There were still a large number of slave-like men digging in the ruins of the palace, and the tower was not completely finished, and many people were pounding on it, and now the two works were going on at the same time, and the long-haired man was in the image of a chief engineer.

Luo Wen walked faster and faster, and when he turned to the other side, the relief suddenly changed, and the long-haired man stood in front of the eighteen bronze tripods, kneeling on his knees, his face was pious, and he was in the shape of bowing, and the eighteen bronze tripods were quite exquisitely carved, almost protruding from the bronze pillars!

But on the top of these eighteen bronze tripods, the smoke is swirling, because of the relationship between the patina, it is more concrete and real, the lines are not as concrete as the later generations, nor are they as decorative as the Han Dynasty, it is a kind of expression between freehand and gongbi, the point is that between the smoke on the eighteen bronze tripods, there are eighteen pairs of eyes of different sizes and shapes!

This is the Eighteen Guardians!

Luo Wen immediately judged that what he saw before the union saw that this long-haired man threw people into the bronze tripod, and at this time he should have completed the whole thing, that is, the amber man he met before, and there was a demon guard wrapped in each amber man!

At this point, Luo Wen could already guess what the long-haired man was planning, he should be a man, he wanted to let Xingneng ascend to heaven in peace by eating the corpse of the eighteen demon guards, so he only did these eighteen demon guards, but the point is that what is the reason why it took so much effort to build such a huge bronze pillar?

Rowan couldn't help but continue to walk towards the top, three bronze reliefs in a row, the vertical height of the bronze pillar has climbed more than thirty meters, but because the diameter of the bronze pillar is large enough, and the inner wall of the tower is wide enough, the length of the stone staircase under Rowan's feet has to go a considerable distance every one meter to the top.

In this way, don't look at the fact that he just walked vertically for dozens of meters, but in fact, Rowan's walking distance is very considerable, and even in the process of walking, there will be an illusion, that is, he thinks that he has been walking on a flat road, indicating that the angle of this entity is actually very small.

Rowan guessed that this was to facilitate the casting and installation of this bronze column, so that it would be convenient to work at a certain height, so that there would not even be a place to put the pedals. Rowan continued to ascend along the stone staircase, but turned the other side of the bronze column, the relief suddenly carved the style is a change, becoming more rigorous in carving techniques, pay attention to symmetry, pay attention to neatness, wrinkled hair is even, sparse and dense, the figure modeling is more concrete, between the eyebrows are meticulous, look very solemn and slightly dull.

But before Rowan could see the full picture of this relief, he saw a man on the stone staircase several stories above his head opposite him!

This person is wearing a short-sleeved jacket of a tights, obviously there is a special anti-collision guard on the inside of the chest and abdomen, which looks very strong, wearing a pair of gray and white trousers, a pair of kicking dead cows under his feet, a multi-functional tool belt around his waist, a military dagger hanging on the side, a small backpack behind him, and a longbow with a simple shape in the diagonal bottom!

At this time, this person was looking down at the relief opposite him, but almost at the same time, this person also saw Rowan! This man hurriedly drew his longbow, and in a flash, he released an arrow at Rowan! (To be continued......)
