Chapter 134: The World Behind the Gate

In the end, the old cat retreated from the door, and he motioned for a few of us to rest here, after all, after some "escape", everyone's current physical state needs to be adjusted.

The old cat put down the backpack behind his back, leaned against the wall, and began to close his eyes and recuperate. The bald head was already exhausted, panting as if he was a little deprived of oxygen, and now he finally had time to stop and rest, and the bald head simply lay on the ground and used a backpack as a pillow on his head.

Lin Xihui and I sat on the side of the stone wall, I took a sip of water, closed my eyes and began to recall the strange murals we had just seen on the wall.

Although it is just a picture outlined by some lines, the shock in my heart is no less than that of the image in reality. The moment I saw the mural, my worldview was completely turned upside down. It was like watching a movie on a stone wall, and I couldn't calm down my complicated feelings for a long time.

I asked Lin Xihui, after all, she worked in the Mystery Bureau, had she ever heard of that kind of "moving" mural before?

Lin Xihui frowned and spread her hands, and then told me that if she had heard of that kind of thing, she would not have seen the mural move at that time, and she was so surprised that she was speechless.

Lin Xihui emphasized that the wisdom of the ancients will definitely not be lower than that of the current people. In ancient times, in the Western Regions, there were people who used natural forces, such as lightning and fog, to record images. It is said that there is a "mirror of eternity" in the Jizo Poussin, and everything that is reflected in the mirror will be recorded, and through the mirror of eternity, the image of the past will be deduced.

And the stone wall we see is like a huge "mirror of eternity", recording the things that were once depicted on the wall, and the two drops of blood that the old cat dripped into the wall are the keys to activate the active mural on the wall.

After the stone wall was activated by blood drops, the images that had been recorded on the stone wall were presented one by one. Lin Xihui believes that the reason why the murals on the wall can move like images must be that there are mysteries in the murals that we modern people have not yet explored.

I very much agree with Lin Xihui's affirmation of the wisdom of the ancients. Perhaps what we see now is the product of ancient or ancient civilizations.

Why are there so many things that modern people think are unbelievable in various legends that describe antiquity or ancient times? Maybe those things were real before, but there was a fault line in the civilization at that time, so that later people could not understand the previous civilization, so they could only classify those things that seemed incredible to themselves as myths or legends.

This kind of thing is somewhat similar to the fact that when we are faced with unexplained things now, we tend to attribute it to God's creation, but in fact, it is the same thing, and after coming here, I believe more and more that there is a so-called "ancient civilization".

I sat there, thinking carefully about the scenes in the dynamic mural.

First, three monsters with dragon heads and human shapes appeared on the bare wall, and the "dragon heads" were Ying Long, Pig Dragon, and Centipede Dragon. Ying Long occupies the upper middle position, and the other two dragon heads appear in parallel positions, indicating that this is to highlight the position of Ying Long's head, that is to say, Ying Long's head is higher than Tuolong and Earth Dragon Head, and the status of the latter two is parallel.

But when the picture on the stone wall began to change, I couldn't understand what was being said on the wall at all. The body of the pig dragon and the centipede dragon were entangled like twisted flowers, and then devoured two huge humanoid black shadows, I couldn't figure out what the two black shadows were referring to? Or is there something else that is obscure? Because in the dynamic mural, each picture is depicted quite exquisitely, but it is precisely in those two black shadow parts that are depicted extremely blurred, except for the human form, no other features can be distinguished.

Then there is the entangled "double dragon", each began to devour each other's bodies, in the process of swallowing, the bodies of the two formed a special ring on the wall, and in the process of swallowing, the bodies that were originally tightly wound together were "untied" with swallowing, and their respective bodies were swallowed into each other's mouths.

Thinking of this, I asked Lin Xihui, what is that kind of dragon with a body like a centipede? Is it also a dragon?

Lin Xihui looked at me, there was an indescribable mystery in her eyes, as if she was searching for something from me, and then she nodded and explained to me that that kind of centipede dragon can also be said to be a dragon.

The centipede dragon Lin Xihui called it - Jiwei (Jiwei). He is one of the nine sons of the legendary dragon. According to legend, the dragons born to dragons are all dragon-like and non-dragon-like things. Some people generally believe that they are the nine sons of the dragon, namely, the Prison Ox, the Eye, the Wind, the Pu Prison, the Cunning, the Cunning, the Cunning, the Kiss, and the Gluttony.

But this "nine" is actually an imaginary number, which should mean many or endless. Therefore, the sons of the dragon are not the only nine, and the unicorn and Pixiu are also the sons of the dragon. This Ji Wei is also one of the sons of the dragon. However, it seems to be recorded that Ji Wei was violent and murderous. Everywhere you go, there will be a catastrophe. So Lin Xihui is right when he says that Ji Wei is not a good thing.

I asked, "That dragon is also one of the dragon's sons?" ”

Lin Xihui nodded and shook his head, and explained to me briefly that there are too many folk legends about the son of the dragon, but in the versions that Lin Xihui has heard, he has never heard of such a dragon anyway. But she can't be sure of my question, because after all, China is so big, the dragon is likely to be the totem of a small number of tribes, so it is also possible to be considered a dragon boy, and combined with the murals we saw before that the dragon and Ji Wei appeared at the same time, the status of the two should be parallel, so the possibility that Ji Wei is a dragon is still relatively large.

Suddenly, I remembered that when I saw the pig dragon and the centipede dragon devouring each other, because I asked Lin Xihui at that time, she didn't answer, and now I happened to have time, so I asked Lin Xihui again, is there any special meaning in this picture at that time?

After Lin Xihui finished talking about Ji Wei's previous incident, the whole person fell into a state of contemplation, as if she was thinking about something, and I obviously noticed that there was something wrong with the way she looked at me.

At this time, Lin Xihui did not answer my question, but the old cat who had been closing his eyes and recuperating said to me: "There are many interpretations of this special meaning. One of the most common explanations is that eternal life is rebirth, or it can be understood as a cycle of eternal life and immortality! ”
