Chapter Ninety-Seven: Glory Under the Ashes

The camera didn't show any other images after the memory was transmitted, and I looked at it several times to make more careful confirmation, but it seemed to be silent, and it didn't play it back again and didn't pop up any images. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

All the links in the hand point to the Su Hui mentioned in the book of Helu, which should refer to today's Mount Vesuvius. After some discussion, it was decided to go to Italy, and the rift in time and space was all over the world, and it was not surprising that it would appear in other countries.

Qian Cai has been to the Blue Grotto (a well-known scenic spot in Italy) photography experience, this trip is naturally all arranged by her, the three of us are obedient to follow the walk, once in Rome, we non-stop directly take the private railway to Nanyi, straight to Pompeii.

Pompey......

What a mysterious city, a piece of glory buried underground.

Ziche was like a big child, curious about everything, after getting off the plane, he looked around all the way, and on the train he grinned at everyone who passed by the aisle, and it didn't take long for a pair of enthusiastic Italian girls to come and talk.

One of the girls spoke English and tried to communicate with Ziche. I gave him a blank look, and I didn't want to help?? The meaning of his translation, whatever he wants. Chinese, Italian, English mixed and matched, three chickens and ducks talk nonsense for a long time can actually communicate, it's really fucking magical.

"Uh-huh, are you envious? Who told you to look baby-faced, you don't eat here." Qian Cai, who was sitting opposite, suddenly poked me in the face and teased me a few words by the way.

I looked away, dodged her finger and said, "Damn, it's not very popular in Asia."

"Hahaha, don't worry, spring will always come." She chuckled.

"The best."

I replied angrily, resting my elbow on the window frame and ignoring her. Hung up the headphones to temporarily disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the outside world, staring at the scenery outside the window like a meteor, Feng Xin was in a state of closing his eyes and turning off his mind from beginning to end, except for a patrol officer who raised his eyelids slightly when he passed by, the rest of the time he was still on the chair like a statue.

Stick your forehead to the glass of the car window and feel yourself breathing.

The money I saved over the years was not enough to buy a house, but it was enough to support me as a jobless homeless person for a few months. When I was very tired from work and helpless in life, I also thought about decisively giving up everything to give myself a trip. But when new cases come in waves, they can't let go.

In this way, many years have passed over and over again, from just graduating and being full of goals in life to having no goals, and living one day at a time. After watching a few movies occasionally, I also lay in bed and fantasized about wandering around the world. I imagined a hundred possibilities, but I didn't know that I was now sitting on a train in a foreign country for the one hundred and one reasons I had never thought of.

The human soul is a complex journey.

I always believe in this statement.

In the end, I didn't know what the two women said, and glanced at Qian Yan contemptuously, Qian Yan's expression was obviously unhappy, and he directly sent the two girls away.

The slightly fogged window reflected her angry face, and Ziche was still smiling and smiling, with an expression that was no longer wrong.

...

After about two hours of driving, we got out of the car and followed the words of the locals, and within a few minutes we turned to a stone road paved with two grooves.

Seeing this road, I somehow felt heavy in my heart, and said in my heart, maybe I walked with my mother twenty years ago.

From here on, everything is the same as the camera presents, the trees on both sides of the road have grown more luxuriant after decades of baptism, and there seems to be little change outside, I believe that the stone road was just paved hundreds of years ago and the current scenery is not far away, as if the trajectory of time has condensed on this stone road, as if you turn your head and see the picture of the ancient Romans driving by.

Only I have seen the memories conveyed by the camera, and after leaving the green path, it is natural that I will take the lead. Because of the traditional markets in this area, the number of tourists is increasing.

"Are you sure it's the way?" Not long after leaving, Feng Xin asked.

"Hmm." I nodded at him, feeling that he didn't seem to want to be too conspicuous, and explained, "Go a little further and go around a place where it's supposed to be an auditorium and you'll find the residents' homes, which will be a lot less crowded. We're going to one of them, but I'm not sure which one, the whole row of doors is built alike, so I'll have to look for it."

I spoke as if it were my kitchen and I came every day.

Beyond the very end of the market, I saw the tree that had been rushing to buy ice. Under the shade of the trees, there are other vendors, but it still feels so familiar, I think this is probably a sight I will never forget......

Swallowing his saliva, he turned around and hurriedly beckoned Feng Xin to go to the right.

Not surprisingly, the crowds of tourists plummeted after passing through the bustling market, and there were very few people shuttling through the ancient alleys. To be honest, the backlit atmosphere of this area does give people a mysterious sense of desolation, and even in broad daylight, you can't help but fantasize about the legendary cannibalistic birds and beasts that will suddenly come out of which alley.

And the further you go up the hill, the more inhabited it becomes.

"It looks like that." I looked at a row of inconspicuous earthen walls blocked by small hills.

There were a few wooden sticks horizontally to indicate that the front was closed to the public, and the four of us took advantage of the absence of other tourists to sneak in.

Although there are five or six doors open on the exterior of this earthen wall, the space inside is not separated, showing a large space in the shape of a long strip, and rows of arches are open as high as people, and it is very oppressive when you walk with your head down. At first glance, the exterior wall does not have much decoration, but the inner wall looks in from the outside to the inside, and you can see many exquisite and detailed reliefs of the goddess statues.

I was in a hurry to get in and have a look, but I didn't pay attention to whether my feet were on the ground, and I just strode and immediately fell and ate.

When I turned my head to look, I was surprised to find that it was not that the door was as high as a person, but that the whole building was sinking into the ground dozens of centimeters as if the ground was sinking.

No one sympathized with me, so I got up on my own, patted the dust and followed them to explore the space. The light cast by the sun is very limited, and some corners are still gray and unclear. In the first half of the circle, except for the decorative reliefs that were originally chiseled on the wall, there were not even peeled gravel blocks in the room, as if it was deliberately emptied.

When I walked to the front of the building, I saw Ziche raise his chin and look seriously thinking, not knowing what he was studying.

"What are you looking at? Hmm......" I walked to the side of the car and looked up, speechless.

He looked at me and said, "I'm finally sure we're not in the wrong place, look at the roof, is it a little similar to what we saw before?"

"Well, I don't think it's similar, they're pretty much the same, it's called a hive top...... Here, it seems that most of them were built in burial chambers."

Ziche stared at me in surprise when I heard me say this, and I shrugged at him, "I mean, like."

At that time, in the tomb of Houyi, I had a great suspicion that there must be something strange about the dome of the dome, and after studying it carefully for a long time, I still remember the way the stones were stacked. It was only during my hospitalization that I remembered that I would be obsessed with the round zenith like that, all because I had taken exams before.

The reliefs in the interior are very story-telling, rich and life-like. Most of the first half is carved with women's postures, and sitting or lying down seems to be a scene of daily life. In the middle, some men began to compete with each other, as if they were fighting or jousting or something.

I think back to what I saw on camera, and there was no such passage at all.

Unimpressed by these historical sites, the group walked straight to the mouth of the Half Moon Spring in the inner courtyard as soon as they entered the archway. Either they had been here several times and were already very sure of their target, or the ruins were not worth looking at in their eyes.

However, the relief here is much more complete than other ones that have been exposed to wind and rain for many years outside, and the human pupils and animal hair are still very three-dimensional, and there are no defects that are very eye-catching, and it is difficult for people to ignore them so thoroughly. So my conclusion is one; The last group of people should have been here many times.

"Hey, you two, keep up, it's been a long time." Humility shouted to us in front of us.

"Oh." I walked over quickly, but Ziche ignored her and walked like a walk.

After passing through the main house full of reliefs, and stepping out of the exit placed in the middle on the other side, what catches your eye is the garden submerged in two rows of laurel trees, the elegant scenery has not changed, and the same only adds a lot of greenery, the comfortable flowers and plants taste fresh and pleasant, and a few gray finches that were originally jumping on the grass have disappeared when they see someone haunting.

However, Feng Xin seemed to feel something, and without asking me any more, he jumped off the altar connecting the main house and the garden, and walked directly to the half-moon-shaped fountain without hesitation.

When he pushed aside the ivy vines that were climbing on it, I subconsciously squinted my eyes and felt a strange feeling, which I couldn't say from time to time.

"Looks like you've got the hang of it." Feng Xin glanced at me and said lightly.

"This entrance is also invisible?" I asked.

He didn't reply to me, just looked up at the blue sky for a few minutes, looking a little indifferent, as if he was praying something...... Or say goodbye. At this time, no one dared to speak out, and Qianyu's eyes kept looking back and forth between me and Feng Xin.

After a few minutes, he sighed slightly, "Let's go."
