"There can't really be any monsters in this pool, why has it been put for four days and four nights, and this water hasn't been released yet?"

"Monster, no, a few days ago, I was still taking a shower here, don't say it, it's weird!"

"What age is it, and it's still a monster, according to me, there must be an underground river in here."

There was a lot of discussion on the side of the waterhole, and the whole village, including children and the elderly, all gathered around the waterhole. Around the waterhole, four small pumps are pumping water to the waterhole day and night, but a few days have passed, and the water in the waterhole has not been drained.

The waterhole is not big, only a little more than two acres, but it is very deep, and the water surface has fallen about eight meters, and there is no bottom.

The waterhole has been contracted out by the village, and the contractor is a villager who was originally planning to raise some fish and shrimp. Before releasing the fry, prepare to clean up the pool. After all, this waterhole is often the site of a ferocious freshwater predator like the Blackfish. This is a natural enemy for fish farmers, and if these fish are not cleaned up and the fry are put in, they will definitely lose their money in the coming year.

Although I also knew that this waterhole was very deep, I didn't expect it to be so deep.

"Bottoming out, bottoming out! It's finally bottoming out! I don't know how long later, there was a burst of exclamations from the crowd, as if it was as lively as the New Year.

"Hey, what is this? A stone statue with a stone door inside? A sharp-eyed young man shouted loudly.

……

"Li Ran, this time, do less and watch more, this is a rare internship opportunity." An old man in his fifties and sixties in civilian clothes in the car said.

"Yes, Professor Sun, thank you this time!" A thin, lean young man of twenty-three or four, holding a few photos in his hand, said sincerely.

"Hehe, don't thank me, there are very few people like you who are serious and specialized now. However, the things in the books, after reading too much, end up on paper. This time, you're bound to have something new. Professor Sun waved his hand and said casually.

For this student, the more he looks at it, the more he likes it. Not only are people very intelligent, but they are also diligent, and at a young age, they already have certain attainments in archaeology.

"What can you see in these pictures?" Professor Sun asked with interest, he also wanted to see what unique insights this student had.

Li Ran frowned and pondered, and then shook his head for a long time and said, "These stone statues are very strange, not like the products of any dynasty. And the pattern of the stone gate, I can't understand it, it looks like some kind of text. Maybe my knowledge is still not enough! ”

"Haha, it's right if you don't understand it, it's not that you don't have enough knowledge, but this kind of thing, it's the first time I've found it so far. There is a good chance that this time there will be a gap in the archaeological community. ”

Li Ran's heart jumped, he didn't expect this discovery to be so significant, thinking of the tutor's care for him, he couldn't help but respect the mentor even more in his heart.

After a few hours of driving, Li Ran and his mentor arrived at their destination smoothly.

This waterhole has now been alerted, and within a radius of one kilometer of the waterhole, a long cordon has been set up, and dozens of armed policemen are standing around, fully armed.

Outside the cordon, there were villagers in a circle to join in the fun, obviously this discovery made the villagers very curious.

Li Ran and Professor Sun took out their passes and showed them to the armed police, who immediately let them go.

Archaeology had already begun a few days earlier, and the site was being cleaned up. Professor Sun was obviously familiar with these people, and when he saw Professor Sun coming, some of them began to say hello.

Li Ran followed Professor Sun step by step, and carefully followed the four words of doing less and reading more.

On both sides of the stone gate, two statues of animals that are two and a half meters high, these animals are not any kind of creatures on earth, and there is no mention of them in books, including a back with two wings, a body with four claws, and its body is covered with dense scales, and its huge mouth is slightly open, revealing its hideous teeth. Although over the years, many places have been worn out and destroyed. But it still exudes a fierce and vicious momentum.

Li Ran glanced at it, and hurriedly avoided his gaze, although it was a dead thing, he felt that this thing, as if it had just come out of hell, would be chosen to eat at any time.

On the other hand, there is a beast with a spiral-shaped horn, and its body is draped in what looks like armor. He glanced at it hurriedly, but didn't look closely.

"Let's go in first, but remember, don't touch anything, it's not easy." Professor Sun chatted with the people outside for a few words, and suddenly turned around and said solemnly.

"Professor Sun, is there a mechanism here?" Li Ran's heart skipped a beat and asked.

"No, nothing has been found so far, but it's full of ancient rituals. There are some things that cannot be explained by current science......" Professor Sun stopped talking, looking a little hesitant. After all, the modern climate is like this, and some things are difficult to say.

Li Ran's heart sank, and he was silent.

Behind the stone statue, there is a stone staircase paved with basalt that extends downward, and the silt and aquatic plants on it have also been cleared, without the slightest trace of water, and the surface of the stone steps is covered with patterns like moire, but it has been blurred with the passage of time.

Li Ran followed Professor Sun step by step towards the bottom of the stone steps, and after walking less than twenty meters, he had already seen the stone gate, which was three meters high and two meters wide, and was made of two black glass volcanic rocks.

The stone door is carved with strange patterns, which seem to be patterns and words. Although the photos have been seen, when he really touches the real thing, Li Ran still feels a mysterious atmosphere.

Li Ran was sure again in his heart that this was definitely a text, a kind of writing that had not been discovered so far. At this time, the stone door had been opened, and for some reason, he seemed to feel that there was a sense of tranquility, and a trace of it slowly leaked out from the stone door.

Entering the stone gate, inside is a long corridor made of black square stones, on which lighting tools have been placed, and it does not look dim.

The stone walls are covered with mottled frescoes that stretch to the bottom of the promenade. This is a narrative painting, and in ancient times, when there was no written text, history was recorded in the form of this fresco.

Li Ran looked at it while walking, and the mural told about the huge sacrificial scene of a primitive tribe.

On the picture, hundreds of sharp wooden stakes stand above the ground, each of which is inserted with various sacrificial animals, and blood is constantly left along the stakes, several of which are even people.

Around the stake, thousands of ancients dressed in animal skins and leaves were kneeling on the ground. The whole scene is unusually bloody and weird, but with a solemnity, which makes people breathless.

After walking a few steps, a new picture appeared, a golden giant eye appeared in the sky, the giant eye overlooked the earth, even the sun next to it was eclipsed, and countless people on the ground were kneeling on the ground, saying something loudly.

"This is the worship of the eyes of the ancients, in the eyes of the ancients, the eyes represent the sun above the head, and they believe that the eyes are given by the sun and have a mysterious power." Professor Sun looked back and said.

Li Ran nodded, did not speak, and was inexplicably a little depressed in his heart.

After walking for a few minutes, the two finally reached the end of the corridor. Below, however, there is a stone staircase that extends underground. The stone steps are so deep that they seem to lead to the depths of the earth, and there is no end in sight.

The surroundings seemed very quiet, walking on the stone steps, the noise outside, as if suddenly disappeared, only the soles of shoes stepping on the stone steps between heaven and earth, the ethereal, quiet friction sound.

I don't know how long I walked, Li Ran took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket in a dull heart, and as expected, there was no signal on it. At this time, it was already two and ten o'clock in the afternoon, and twenty minutes had passed since entering this grotto. Except for a few minutes on the promenade, it has been more than fifteen minutes on this stone step.

He put the phone back in his trouser pocket, and walked for more than ten minutes, the sound gradually came from the bottom of the stone steps, the sound of rubbing, the sound of talking, there were obviously people below, and there were a lot of them.

The two of them walked to the bottom of the stone steps, and a huge stone door as high as a three-story building suddenly appeared in front of them, the stone door was half open and half walled, it should be like this, otherwise it would not only reveal a gap less than half a meter wide.

Li Ran and Professor Sun, through the gap in the stone gate, walked forward to take a look, and couldn't help but gasp in their hearts.

A huge hall was displayed in front of him, and at the front of the hall, there was a human statue tens of meters high, the statue was all golden, I don't know if it was gilded, or it was all made of gold. And the weird thing is that on the forehead of the statue, there is one eye, and this statue actually has three eyes.

The three-eyed human was dressed in a set of elaborate and ornate full-body armor, without any weapons or other ornaments on his hands, and the parts of the armor that were not covered showed hideous and piercing muscles. The statue is lifelike, without the slightest trace of an axe or chisel, as if it were a real person.

Looking at this statue, Li Ran suddenly felt an inexplicable fear in his heart, and his heart seemed to be pressed against a boulder, making it difficult for people to breathe. There seemed to be a majestic voice, faintly tormenting in his mind.

"Old Sun, you are finally here, the little brother next to you is the Xiao Li you said." A rough voice shattered Li Ran's nightmare, and he suddenly woke up. Unconsciously, there is already a **** behind it.

"Haha, Team Chen, let me introduce, this is Li Ran, my student, and I will also come to see the world. This is Captain Chen, the head of the archaeological team this time. Professor Sun introduced.

"Hello Captain Chen, I'm going to trouble you this time." Li Ran came back to his senses and said respectfully.

"Haha, Xiao Li, don't be so restrained. I have known Mr. Sun for a long time, and Mr. Sun introduced me, of course I can trust it. But don't mess with things here, it's a bit evil here. ”

"Oh, how do you say?" Professor Sun asked suspiciously.

Captain Chen's face suddenly became solemn: "Elder Sun, how did you feel when you saw this statue for the first time?" ”

Sun Lao thought for a while and said: "This is not something that primitive people can build at all, the statue is lifelike, even if it is a real person, even if it is a real person, even in modern society, it is a very troublesome thing to build such a realistic and huge statue." Moreover, the armor on his body is exquisite and gorgeous, and the components on the surface are natural, like works of art, I don't know what dynasty has the ability to make such armor. It seems unlikely that it will appear in this grotto, which is almost primitive. ”

"Old Sun, sure enough, your eyes are like a torch, look at this item." Captain Chen carefully took out a stone axe from a nearby wooden box.

"Stone axe! So it's a product of the Stone Age. Sun Lao said in surprise.

"Although I don't want to believe it, judging from the items left behind, this is a place of sacrifice for a primitive tribe, and it is initially estimated that it is about 10,000 years old, or even longer. And that statue should also be a product of the same period, a god worshiped by primitive people. And there's a weird thing here, it seems to be some kind of alloy, but it's buried in the ground, and it hasn't been unearthed yet, so you can come and take a look. Captain Chen said excitedly.

Li Ran suddenly remembered the giant eye that appeared in the mural next to him, and then compared this lifelike statue that was not a product of that era at all, he couldn't help but have a strange idea in his heart. Could it be that the three-eyed god really existed in ancient times?

"Li Ran, you should be here first, and I'll go to the front with Captain Chen to have a look." Professor Sun looked back and said.

"Okay, Professor Sun." Li Ran replied.

Professor Sun and Captain Chen hurriedly walked towards a dirt pit in front of them, while Li Ran carefully observed the surrounding murals, which all told about the great feats of the three-eyed gods, such as the gods giving them food, repelling ferocious beasts, teaching them how to fight, and even the war between the three-eyed gods and the evil gods.

These murals were very rough, and many places had already fallen off and become blurred, but looking at them, he couldn't help but have a sacred and solemn atmosphere in his heart, and his expression became solemn.

At this moment, he felt as if something sharp and hard under his feet was hitting the soles of his feet, he raised his feet, and rubbed them lightly against the ground a few times, a few knots of Senbai's almost petrified phalanges, as the dirt turned out, he brushed them away with his toes, revealing a pyramid-shaped black object in the soil.

He looked up and wanted to call Professor Sun, but he had already walked away and was discussing with a group of archaeological team leaders Chen. When he saw this, he let go of this idea, and planned to pick up the things and send them to him later.

He leaned down and stretched out his hand to the pyramid-shaped object, and suddenly his face changed, and then he took a deep breath, his face suddenly turned red, and he slowly lifted the object, which was only the size of a ping-pong ball.

This small object was unexpectedly heavy, if it weren't for the fact that he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, he was much stronger than ordinary people, and he would not have been able to mention such a thing at all. But even so, he has already used his strength to feed.

This little thing weighs about 40 kilograms, and with three fingers, you can clip it up, and ordinary people can't do it at all.

The pyramid-shaped object looked unusually smooth, without the slightest scratch, and its surface was faintly covered with mysterious patterns like spider webs, with four sharp edges and corners, and no notches visible to the naked eye. And the whole body is dull and dull, and I don't know what material it is made of.

He touched the edges and corners of his fingers.

"Whew!"

A scratch immediately appeared on his finger, and blood oozed from the scratch.

"This thing is so sharp, even if it's a divine weapon, it's nothing more than that." Li Ran said secretly in his heart, showing a hint of surprise on his face, but he didn't notice that a trace of blood had stuck to this object.

At this moment, an inexplicable fear suddenly hit his heart, his heart palpitated, and his heart beat violently. It's like facing the power of heaven and earth, and I can't afford to have any thoughts of resistance in my heart.

Fear, terrible!

This kind of fear cannot be controlled by itself at all, as if it has been forcibly added by external forces. At the same time, there was a roar of anger behind him.

He turned back with difficulty, the heavens and the earth seemed to stand still at this moment, everything became extremely slow, and the surrounding archaeologists, as if collectively petrified, froze at that moment, and at the same time there was a sharp noise of tape jamming around him.

He finally saw the statue of the god, and in his eyes, the statue seemed to come to life, and the stiff face gradually became vivid, and his eyes were filled with a kind of angry rage.

Suddenly, the huge eye on his forehead suddenly lit up, and a white light representing destruction suddenly bombarded his body across the space.

Li Ran's body instantly rose as if weathered, turning into dust, and suddenly a spiritual light wrapped around the pyramid-shaped object, pulled out of the body, and flew towards the giant eye on the forehead.

Gone in a flash!

"Scratch!"

A crack suddenly appeared in the statue of the Three-Eyed Divine Eye, and then there were more and more cracks, and it didn't take long for it to be all over the body.

"Whoa!"

With a loud bang, the massive statue was reduced to rubble.
