Chapter 8 The Road to Fiction and Reality
Looking at the lifeless imperial city in front of me, I had an indescribable feeling in my heart. The city is a symbol of an era and a symbol of civilization. To this day, I have been defeated to the point of loneliness in front of me, which really makes me sigh in my heart: no matter how powerful the characters are, no matter how spectacular the scene, they all seem very small in the face of time.
The imperial city in front of me, which is composed of 5 concentric circles, is no longer inhabited, but the magnificent momentum still exists. It is said that the structure of the city is set according to the hierarchical structure of people. The closer you get to the center of the island, the higher the level. Of course, the people on the middle island are the supreme rulers of centralized power.
The arrow leads to a road that leads straight to the center of the city. Although the ancient city of the Great Western Kingdom in front of you is magnificent, now is not the time to appreciate and sigh. I don't know if this road is smooth, there are too many accidents and accidents along the way. My intuition told me that this road was definitely not so open. But even if there is a sea of swords and fire, I will not retreat.
I'm thinking: this trip to find Duoduo has actually gone beyond the matter of "finding Duoduo" itself. Behind the scenes, there are too many hidden secrets. This is something that I and Duoduo, and even the old ghost and Lisa and others did not expect at all.
On the surface, it is just the grievances and grievances of our ancestors, but it is still a "historical problem". We may seem like outsiders, but we are actually participants. To be precise, we should be considered passive participants.
If there is a problem, it must be solved, and it is never useful to escape. Anyway, I'm going to find everyone. I want everyone to go back alive and witness the truth behind the incident together. Thinking like this, I suddenly felt a fire burning in my chest.
This is a fire of righteousness, and I suddenly feel a hundred times more energetic. Without thinking about it, he raised his steps along the road in front of him. I am ready to take my righteous steps and start the journey of unknown exploration.
"Ahh Just as I lifted my foot and leaned my weight forward, my foot stepped on the air and fell into a "dog eat/".
I couldn't help but scold angrily: "Damn, it's not good to be a teacher." It's not a good sign that you're stuck right on the go. It's okay, it's okay, no one sees it. ”
After saying that, I quickly looked around, but fortunately there was no one around. Otherwise, this one would have fallen too much. Hurriedly patted the dust on his body, and couldn't help but think in his heart: "Won't it?" I just stepped on the passage, why did I fall down in the blink of an eye? Could it be that this road is fake? ”
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look up. Sure enough, the road I was about to embark on was still overhead. Could it be that all these scenes are false? I looked at it again and thought it couldn't be fake. However, it was indeed a fall just now. This height is at least three or four meters high, and now my hands, feet, and face are still a little hot.
It's strange, the road above my head is obviously real, why did I fall down?
Although I have read it in relevant materials before, it is said that the Atlantean Empire is a dream city in people's imagination, and it is a symbol of the times.
A similar account can be found in the manuscripts of ancient Mexican writings preserved in the Vatican City State and in the writings of the Indian civilization of the United Mexican States that have survived to this day: "There have been four generations of human beings on the earth. The first generation of humanity was a generation of giants, and they ruined themselves by hunger. The second generation of humans was destroyed by a huge fire. The third generation of humans is the ape-man, and they are ruined by cannibalism. Later, a fourth generation of human beings appeared, that is, human beings in the stage of "sun and water", and human civilization in this stage was destroyed by the great flood of huge waves.
Modern scientific research has found that before the Great Flood, there may have been a continent on the earth, and that there was already a high degree of civilization on this continent. Later, in a global catastrophe, the continent sank in the Atlantic Ocean. Nearly a century ago, archaeologists have found remains of prehistoric civilizations at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean that seem to confirm this hypothesis.
In folk sayings, people call this land "Daxizhou", and the country that gave birth to prehistoric civilization is called "Daxishiguo". In fact, the scientific community has long named this mysteriously disappeared continent, that is, it follows the name proposed by Plato: Atlantis.
It's mysterious and no one has ever seen it. Therefore, it is also full of legends.
I thought it was incredible, and I looked up again. Through the light and shadow projection from my head, I could vaguely see that there were patches of light and dark spaces on the road. If you look closely, it turns out that some places are real and some places are virtual. No wonder, I fell so badly!
I didn't get excited when I saw this. On the contrary, I calmed down. Carefully looking for the arrangement of the distribution of real and virtual, trying to find out if there is a specific pattern between them.
Finally, I was able to find it. Sure enough, there were: the road was paved with two rows of square stone slabs, one real and one imaginary, alternately arranged in such a way. At first glance, it looks like a chess grid.
When I was done, I set off to climb up. Fortunately, although the surrounding roads are rough, they can be focused. After a lot of effort, I finally got back to where I had fallen. Because of the losses I suffered before, I have a long memory this time, and I didn't dare to act rashly.
I touched the carved words again with my hand to make sure that they were really hand-carved and that the dents were very deep, and then I secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it's not an illusion, don't end up rejoicing. I don't know how Toto was engraved? But I still have to admire Duoduo, she thinks really thoughtfully, and it is engraved in the most critical and easy-to-see place.
Thinking that there might be an old ghost or someone else who would follow, I engraved a few words after Duoduo's words: The road is clear and the road is clear, and follow the chess grid. - Fang Yu, stay.
After carving, I followed the order I had previously judged. Sure enough, this time I didn't fall down the steps, and the progress was relatively smooth. Step by step, walk extremely carefully.
However, the scenery under his feet is a little terrifying, and his legs and stomachs are a little weak: sometimes the water under his feet is turbulent, and sometimes he is the magma that sets off a hot wave; It's either an abyss, or a flood beast. Such terrain features are really not what you usually see. It's no wonder that colors with red and blue are projected, and it turns out that these things are projected.
After a while, my life is almost half gone. Looking at the front of me, I had almost only walked a short and half distance. There is still a long way to go from the central city. I couldn't help but stop, resting, and thinking to myself: What a grandson the man who designed this path! Is it designed like this, so that he doesn't know that it will be dangerous for a child to walk? Pig!
But there is no way, scolding and scolding, since I have already sworn an oath, even the sea of swords and fires will go over. So he stubbornly walked on.
At this moment, there was a sudden terrible scream in front of me!
The voice was poignant and sudden, but it felt familiar to me.
