"The Old Testament description of God's creation of man is 'LetusmakeMan, Inourimage, afterourlikeness... AndGodcreatedtheAdaminHisimage,IntheimageofElohimcreatedHehim', where singular and plural confusion occurs. God is a singular word, however, the word 'us' is clearly used here, so some people boldly speculate that the God described in the Bible is an alien who migrated from the planet Sirius, and there is more than one of these aliens, so the 'us' is used in the Old Testament......"

When it comes to these mysterious and unsolved mysteries of human origins, Jiao Daren's interest is getting higher and higher, and he has a tendency to talk endlessly.

Ling Feng interrupted Jiao Daren's words, not because he felt that these topics were illusory and unbelievable, on the contrary, he was still very interested, but the three of them were standing in the dark belly of the mountain, and in front of them was a strange stone gate that might have originated thousands of years ago, which was really not a good place to talk. He turned his head and asked Wu Di: "Ah Ye, who are the three people you said can read cuneiform?" ”

Wu Di replied: "Jones of the University of California in the United States? Dr. Doyle, Will of the University of Hamburg, Germany? Dr. Ram and Hong Kong's Yixue master Chow Lingfeng, these three are internationally recognized experts in paleographies, and if none of them knew cuneiform, then I think there would be no one in the world to understand. ”

Ling Feng let out an "um", a little surprised, one of the three people was actually someone he knew.

Jiao Daren asked, "What, tiger, is there anyone you are familiar with among these three people?" ”

Ling Feng sneered, "No, I've just heard of one of them, but I haven't seen it?" ”

Jiao Daren said: "Cut! I still know Putin, but people don't know us. ”

Wu Di glanced at Ling Feng with blazing eyes, revealing a thoughtful expression.

Ling Feng changed the topic and said, "This should be the treasure of Shi Dakai's Taiping Army, how could there be such a stone gate before the Eastern Zhou Dynasty?" ”

"What's so strange about that. On the eve of Shi Da's defeat on the Dadu River, I am afraid that he had already expected that the future was bleak, so he could only hurriedly find a place to bury the treasure, who would have expected that the place where the treasure was hidden would be a secret place in ancient times. Jiao Daren stared at a flame mark in the upper right corner of the stone gate and said, "Why do I feel that this pattern is somewhat familiar?" ”

This is a flaming flame marker, similar to the flames surrounding the flaming creatures in the relief, but more vividly. This mark was at the top of the upper right corner of the stone gate, it was originally covered by dust, but after being discovered by Jiao Daren, when Ling Feng and Wu Di looked up, they only felt that this mark was a blazing flame steaming and burning, and it was about to break through the door, making people feel a kind of burning from the inside out.

After a while, Jiao Daren patted his head and suddenly said, "Isn't this a sign of Manichaeism?" ”

Manichaeism, also known as Muniism, originated in the ancient Sassanid dynasty of Persia, and its founder, Mani, was born in 216 A.D. and claimed to be the successor and last prophet of Buddha, Zoroaster, and Jesus. Mani once said, "Wisdom and miracles are constantly transmitted to mankind by the messengers of God." So once the messenger was the Buddha from India, in another time it was Zoroaster from Persiaste, and in another time it was Jesus from Nazareth, Israel. The revelation came again, and the prophecy in this last age passed through me, Mani, the messenger of Allah from Babylon. "Manichaeism emphasizes abstinence and vegetarianism, and its doctrine is based on the dualism of good and evil, which summarizes the phenomenon of good and evil, good is light, evil is darkness, and light will overcome darkness, and if human beings follow the truth of religion and the will of God, they will eventually lead to a world of light and bliss, which is the worship of the sun and fire in Manichaeism.

Ling Feng himself was an atheist and did not have any religious beliefs, so naturally he did not study various religious doctrines. However, he still knows a lot about Manichaeism, because Manichaeism also has a well-known name - Mingjiao.

Manichaeism was introduced to China's Xinjiang region in the 6th to 7th centuries, and then from Xinjiang to the Hui of Mobei, and prevailed there. In the third year of the Tang Dynasty, at the request of Hui Hui, Mani Temple was established in Jianghuai and other places. When Tang Wuzong destroyed Buddhism in the fifth year of Huichang, Manichaeism was also severely attacked, and turned into a secret religion, absorbing Taoism and folk beliefs, thus changing its name to Mingjiao. Because Mingjiao believed that the darkness was about to pass and the light was coming, he dared to rebel and repeatedly did it. Since the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, there have been Mingjiao rebellions in Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Anhui and other places. Later, Mingjiao was combined with Maitreya and the White Lotus Society, and evolved into the White Lotus Sect at the end of the Ming Dynasty. Although Mingjiao is no longer seen in the literature to the Qing Dynasty, the theory of the birth of the "Ming King" is still spread among the people.

"You can't be talking about Zhang Wuji's Mingjiao, right?" Ling Feng's understanding of Mingjiao comes from Jin Yongda's novels, and I don't know if there are any legendary things such as the Guangming Peak, the Great Shift of Qiankun, and the Holy Fire Order.

"You're afraid you've read too many martial arts novels, right?" Jiao Daren couldn't laugh or cry, but he had to admire his knowledge, and he also dabbled in the teachings of Manichaeism: "Manichaeism opposes Judaism and regards Judaism as a creation of the dark gods. Is it because the original believers of Judaism were all human beings created by God, that Manichaeism opposed Judaism, just as many people now oppose human cloning? ”

I have to admire Jiao Daren's associative power and imagination, but there are different opinions about the origin of human beings and religions, maybe those seemingly unbridled and boundless speculations and imaginations may be the reality submerged in the long river of practice?

Who knows?

However, at this time, Ling Feng had to interrupt Jiao Daren's conversation again and said, "Flying Bear, do you mean that this stone gate hides the secret of Manichaeism?" ”

Jiao Daren shrugged and said, "Who knows? ”

Ling Feng retorted: "The origin of Manichaeism is only about two thousand years, but you say that this stone gate is at least a product of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, this is not ......"

"You'll find out when you get in the door."

When Ling Feng and Jiao Daren were chatting, Wu Di walked around the stone gate for a long time, and finally found a way to open the door at this time.

The stone door is closed in a "reverse buckle" way. This method is mostly used for the main entrance of the tomb, where two large strips of stone crisscross the stone door, and once closed, they can no longer be opened from the outside. Of course, with Wu Di's academic attainments, there must be a way to open the stone door after the "reverse buckle", but it will take some time. However, the two large ashlars that were tightly fastened behind the stone door had shattered, and the mechanism had completely failed.

Obviously, someone had already entered the stone gate before the three of them.

Could it be that Shi Dakai destroyed the mechanism in the stone gate when he buried the treasure?

What is hidden inside the stone gate?

Is it the treasure of the Taiping Army, or the secret treasure of Manichaeism? (To be continued.) )
