Chapter Ninety-Four: The Ascension to Heaven

There are a lot of air-raid shelters in my hometown, most of which were built during the Sino-Soviet war, ** advocate the accumulation of grain, dig deep holes, most of the air-raid shelters are in the middle of the 70s in a recent situation of no one to repair, when I was a child, I often went to play.

Now we are in a place like an air-raid shelter, the top of the head is oval, the sides are only the width of the arms outstretched, the rocks are mostly artificially excavated marks, the further forward the feet of the water also began to appear, not long before the water has reached the ankles. It was also here that forks in the road began to appear.

Left or right? The sick seedling ran faster than a dog, and the river was so black that it was impossible to distinguish the footprints under the water.

"It's not a person all the way, it's not good, if you get Cha Ye, or we'll withdraw."

"People with a similar fate to us often have certain choices, and I believe he must have discovered something."

"What? That guy who eats mud is such a weirdo. ”

Cha Wenbin said: "It makes sense for him to do that, there is a corpse in this mud, this person is not simple, the knife in his hand I have seen once, it is called Cold Moon." Whether you believe it or not, it is said that Jing Ke used that knife to assassinate the King of Qin back then. ”

"Good guy, I can't see it, it's worth the old nose money." In the eyes of the fat man, everything is measured in money.

"It's not that it's valuable, but that knife will recognize the owner, since he can pick it up, he must not be a mortal, and what can impress Long Ye is even more not an ordinary person."

I couldn't help it, and the question that had been held in my mind for a long time finally opened my mouth: "Who is Master Long?" ”

"The people of the country, I can't tell you clearly, his people are relatively special existences, and there are people from three religions and nine ranks. In this world, there are many such organizations that are not visible, and some things can only be done by people like them, and the law and morality have no constraints on them, and they are only loyal to their own leaders, just like the military and central commanders of the Kuomintang. ”

"The United States has it too." Gu Lao said: "There may only be one FBI you know, this is semi-public, in fact, there are many invisible departments like this. ”

The fat man half-jokingly said, "You can't be an agent, right?" ”

Gu Lao said: "I can't say that I am, because I'm not." This is a typical American humorous answer, which is very cold......

I continued to ask Cha Wenbin: "You are also from that organization?" ”

He thought for a moment and then shook his head and said, "I'm not, I don't want to be, I'm not interested." Okay, I figured where we should go, and that friend left us a mark. Cha Wenbin pointed to the stone wall of the passage on the left and said, "There is a scratch, and it is still very fresh." ”

The water began to get deeper and deeper, and the deepest part had begun to reach my chest, I was fine, this waterproof suit was not bad, but the low temperature was the invasion of the old man, I was afraid that Gu Lao would not be able to do it, so I said to him: "Professor, let's withdraw first, the situation here is very unclear, you are a scholar, there is no need to take such a big risk." ”

"No, do you know Pengamu?" He asked me.

"Yes, Chinese know that newspapers and television have published the scientist who disappeared in Lop Nur two years ago."

"He is my friend and one of the Chinese scholars I respect the most, if the person who does the scientific research dies on the disease, then he is a pity in this life."

I began to have a sense of awe and admiration for the character of this fake foreign devil professor, so I had to tell the fat man to take more care of him.

Not only did I start to have a sour smell in my nose, similar to the smell of stagnant water left in the tank after a long period of uncleaned.

"Why is the water here so stinky, it stands to reason that living water shouldn't be."

"It's the smell of rot, don't you feel a little slippery under your feet?" Cha Wenbin's next sentence I would rather he take it back or I didn't hear it, he said: "Do you see that layer of grease floating on the water? That's the corpse oil, and we're now 80 percent near the grave. ”

If the pot at home is not cleaned and boiled, there will be a layer of colorful things on the water, and the water around us at the moment is full of these things. I am a young man who loves cleanliness, and suddenly there is something sour in my stomach churning up and down......

The fat man was probably disgusted, and continued to add some ingredients to the pond water: "Will those who step on the hard state be bones?" ”

Gu reminded: "So be careful not to be pierced by bones under your feet, the corpse will produce ammonia after decay, that is, miasma, if you feel that something is wrong with your body, don't force it." ”

The water began to get deeper and deeper, and I had to swim any further, and I don't know how many years no one had come to this place, and I was even more worried about whether the kind of biting fish would suddenly appear in the water.

The surroundings were quiet, the spotlights above their heads collided with each other here, and there was only the sound of "bang, bang, bang", I tried my best to tell myself not to be nervous, but my feet slipped, and then my body couldn't bear it and fell backwards and collided with Gu Lao.

Gu Lao at that age where can he stand my strength, naturally he can't eat it, the two of them flipped in the water and slipped and fell, I don't know how many mouthfuls of dirty water I ate in my mouth, and when I struggled to surface from the water again, there were only two people left, Gu Lao and me, the fat man and Cha Wenbin were actually gone!

It only takes ten seconds at most from falling into the water to coming out of the water.

I was about to look for it when I heard a "thud" in my ear, and a stone almost hit my head.

"Here!" I heard the fat man's voice and looked in the direction, only ten meters away from me, the fat man was smiling at me with his head down against the water.

Gu Lao and I rushed over there one after another, the depth of the water at that time had exceeded my nose, and I had to swim, and when I arrived, it turned out that there was a hole in the stone wall here. Gu Lao and I also went ashore one after another. Not to mention that this place is really quite hidden, only thirty centimeters high from the water surface, there is a triangular pyramid-shaped hole exposed, people have to drill under the water once to enter, and when you go in, you will find that there is a hole here.

The fat man pointed to the sick man who was squatting on the ground behind him and said to me, "That little brother beckoned us in." ”

I said angrily: "Together, we don't care if we live or die?" Lao Tzu almost drowned! Hey, how did he get in? ”

"The ghost knows, if he hadn't waved at us, I guess I wouldn't have noticed, I just heard what Cha Ye meant, this seems to be a way to ascend to heaven."

Only then did I notice that this place was a little different, there were paintings carved on the stones on both sides, and it was estimated that the people on the side of the entrance could not see clearly after being soaked in water all year round. The color palette used in the mural is white and red, and the lines are simple, which is probably an abstract painting with the aesthetic vision of modern people. The painting is very long, stretching forward from where we stand, with little room to make out the horses, the figures, and some animals.

Cha Wenbin asked: "Gu Lao, you are engaged in research, what is the style of this picture?" ”

"After the Han Dynasty, the tomb murals already have colors, and the characters and patterns are also more three-dimensional, and they reached their peak in the Sui and Tang dynasties. It is very close to the kind of painting found in the Gobi Desert at the end of the last century, but this is a bit unreasonable, the age gap is too big. ”

Cha Wenbin also said: "We deduce that the age of the tomb below is about in the Northern and Southern Song Dynasty, and it stands to reason that this should also be in that era, how can there be paintings from ancient times." ”

Gu Lao walked forward while looking at the murals, and when he was about three meters away, he shouted: "Come and see, the content of this mural should go from the bottom to the top, indicating that the people who painted at that time were the same as we are now, and they also followed this road up." He asked the sick boy again, "How did this little brother find out about this?" ”

"Intuition." It was the first time he had spoken, his head still bowed, and his voice was slightly hoarse but magnetic.

"Then your intuition is remarkable." "The discovery of this picture is of great historical value, and it is very likely that it will push the civilization of Jiangnan back another two thousand years, and the beginning of this picture is about the prosperity of a tribe, these animals represent wealth, and those who are armed with weapons are the symbol of their strength, and the figure." Gu Lao pointed to a humanoid pattern on the mural and said: "This person, you pay attention, his image is different from other figures, pay attention to the fact that there is a triangle on the top of his head, which is about the same as a hat, he appears in these murals with the highest frequency, and he should be a person with a high status." ”

After a while, Gu Lao shouted again: "Come here, come here, look here, what do you think these people are worshipping this thing?" ”

There were six men in the picture, led by the one with the triangle on his head, their knees drawn in a folded line, prostrate towards the ground, and even more strange was that the object of worship in that picture was an oval with two short diagonal lines under it. Above the oval was a man with a triangular object above his head, his hands still open.

I asked tentatively, "Is this Ding?" ”

Gu Lao said excitedly: "That's right! This is a ding! The person standing on the top of the tripod is their leader, this information is too important, then we can shorten the time to the years before the Western Zhou Dynasty, this discovery is likely to change history! ”
