The Sacred Spring: Chapter 30: The Golden Highway (1)
- My mother, gold, gold all over the ground! - The torch in the fat man's hand fell to the ground at once. The four of us were all amazed by the magnificent view before us, and a golden avenue was paved in front of us, leading straight to the altar in front of us. In the center of the altar was a huge plant that I had never seen before, deeply rooted in the center of the temple, and the vines that spawned from the tree covered the stone walls of the four walls. The top of the plant had long since broken through the ceiling of the building, like a giant dragon soaring into the sky, and through the gaps between the branches, even the starry sky outside could be faintly visible.
I couldn't help but lie on the ground and touch this golden avenue of gold with my hands. The smelting craftsmanship of the Incas was very exquisite, and the gold bricks laid on the ground were as smooth as a mirror, and there was not a single gap between the gold bricks and the gold bricks. The four-eyed and fat man tried their best, but they still couldn't pry half a minute. Pointing to the altar in front of him, he said, "Look at that great tree, and fear it is the one responsible for providing nourishment to the beasts in the temple.
I am very taboo against beasts with vine branches attached to their backs, and I tell everyone to be careful when they go up later. Lin Fang grabbed the fat man from the ground and scolded: "Manly man, when you see gold, your legs are weak, is this your ability to touch Captain Jin-
The fat man snorted and quickly stepped onto the giant tree in the center of the altar, and said, "This is the national flower of the Inca Empire, the Japanese print, but I have never heard that the Japanese stamp can grow into such a large tree, and this temple is simply built around it-
I said, "It's no wonder, it can feed the beast and live in symbiosis, what else is impossible." We're here to find Shirley Young, and then arrest the mastermind behind the museum case, so don't make money later-
The fat man muttered, roughly meaning that the touch gold talisman was hung up, and there was nothing polite about.
Lin Fang was cautious, she climbed the intricate vine branches and looked around, and said to me: "I didn't see your precious daughter-in-law, and the people of the Wang family didn't seem to chase here." What the hell are you looking for, I don't see anything unusual here except for a giant prehistoric tree-
The fat man pointed to the golden avenue where we were walking and shouted, "What is this, the road paved with gold, this is not strange enough." I really don't know what you girls who grew up in the United States ate to grow up eating -
Lin Fang said: "It seems that you have not read the history of the western development of the United States, the American cowboys who were panning for gold in the west also found a similar golden avenue, it is said that the gold veins dug out in the west at that time were 100 meters long, all of which are high-quality mineral deposits of high purity, however, they later killed each other because of the uneven distribution of spoils, and in the end no one came out alive, so such a golden avenue is also called Huangquan Avenue by us-
The fat man quibbled: "Since no one came out alive, where do you know this story?" Gold is gold, you bluff less-
I was afraid that the two would quarrel again, so I had to mediate: "How old are you, you have to worry about a woman." How many times have I told you not to try to explain logic to women, they themselves are illogical people. Hey, I said, don't you have a crush on someone again! ――
Go and go, who will take a fancy to this fierce woman, it is enough for the tigress to have one, you can enjoy it yourself. When I find Shirley Yang, I see how dare you run rampant again-
I took out the gold seal that I had worked so hard to obtain, and it was not a good feeling in my heart, it was like if you were fully armed and wanted to fight the enemy, but when you arrived at the appointed place, there was no one. You yourself are empty and sad. Four-Eyes and Fattyman climbed the giant sun-printed tree, looking for clues among the leafy branches.
I stood at the top of the tree and looked out over the sacrificial chamber. In the center of the temple is a golden avenue leading to the stone gate, and the walls are covered with sun-printed vines, and the old tree has a twisted foundation, and I have heard that the average lifespan of plants in the tropics is much higher than usual, but it is rare to see a behemoth like this. At the moment, I am more concerned about the whereabouts of Shirley Yang, and we have searched all the way, from the United States to Peru, from the bustling city to the deserted jungle. Aside from that unpleasant encounter on the Devil's Bridge, there was no trace of Shirley Young again. Where the hell did she go? Did there be some misunderstanding between me and her that would lead to turning against her?
I looked up and saw that a fat figure was slowly climbing down on the vines above my head, and the pebble just now fell off from the building because he drove it, and I shouted: "Fatty, you won't pay attention, why are you climbing so high, and there is nothing to eat on the top of the tree."
Lao Hu, you call me? - The fat man's voice came from far behind me, and I looked back to see that he was lying on the golden avenue and studying how to dig up the gold - when did you run back again? - I didn't think something was right until I asked, if the fat man was behind me, what was on top of my head?
I focused my gaze again on the top of the tree, and I saw that the figure was approaching me little by little, his movements stiff, his head downward, his hands and feet, and in a moment he disappeared among the dense vines. I was even more sure that this man was not fat, but a man I had never seen before, crawling through a crack in the ceiling into the temple.
Four Eyes and Lin Fang were chatting under the canopy, but when they heard my shout, they immediately stood up and asked.
I said, "Something crept in from the outside, it looked like a human, but it didn't look like -
