Seeing the scene in front of me, I couldn't help but gasp and take two steps back.

Shi Tao next to me helped me, "Zhuo Ran, what's wrong with you?" You okay? ”

I shook my head, but I still couldn't take my eyes off the blood-red eyes. Kong Xue looked at me in the eyes, "Could it be that you know what those two red dots are?" ”

I stammered a little and said, "Eyes! That's two eyes! ”

"Eyes?" As soon as I said this, Kong Xue and Shi Tao's faces also changed greatly, and they looked at the two red dots in the mural at the same time. And at this time, in my eyes, the two blood-red dots suddenly came to life, as if some kind of terrifying behemoth was hidden in the black canopy, and it turned its gaze to me, with a fierce and solemn gaze in its cold gaze. I was so frightened that I hurriedly closed my eyes, and when I opened them again, I still saw two red dots.

Shi Tao frowned and looked at me, "Zhuo Ran, are you too nervous?" Maybe it's just some strange celestial phenomenon, or maybe it's just a mistake by the artist, don't scare yourself. ”

I smiled wryly and shook my head, "Brother Tao, after you were injured by the fog in Qilian Mountain, you were forced to stay in the Tibetan Temple, you may only know about what happened after that, but you don't know the specific situation. We've seen these eyes! With that, I turned my head to look at Kong Xue.

At this time, Kong Xue's face also became a little ugly, I know that she has remembered what happened to Qilian Mountain, although Kong Xue may not have seen the pair of red lantern-like eyes in the dense fog deep in the canyon at that time, but she must still remember the two blood-red eyes of the giant snake at the bottom of Qilian Mountain.

Kong Xue looked at the mural blankly, "This...... Could it be the snake, but ....... Here, that's Qilian Mountain! Kong Xue was shocked and spoke a little incoherently, but I still roughly understood what she meant.

I nodded, "There should indeed be a close connection with Qilian Mountain here!" Do you remember this character," I said, pointing to the leader of the human-faced bird's beak in the mural in front of me, "Do you remember this person?" ”

Kong Xue walked over and looked at it and nodded, "I probably have the impression that there seems to be such a figure in the murals in the Qilian Mountain River." ”

"That's true," I continued, "and now I'm even wondering if the people who migrated here could be the same people who built the ruins in the Qilian Mountains, who originally lived in the Qilian Mountains and moved here for some reason. ”

Kong Xue nodded, "If you say that, I'm afraid there is really such a possibility." ”

I turned my head to look at Wen Mo, and found that he was squatting in the corner of the passage and didn't know what he was doing, I didn't pay attention to him, anyway, Wen Mo didn't have to worry about what he did, there was naturally his reason in it, I went to see it, maybe I couldn't understand it, it was better to see something that could be understood.

So I continued to look at the frescoes, and in the picture below, led by the chief, the people came to the front of a stone door, which seemed to be the huge stone door with human skin that we saw at the beginning.

I couldn't help but be surprised to see this, we originally thought that this stone gate was built by the people of the ancient kingdom of Shan Huan, but now I realize that we are wrong, this stone gate seems to have existed long before they arrived! I couldn't help but take a deep breath, how many years has this stone door been in existence! The ancient kingdom of Shan Huan existed here at least before the Zhou Dynasty, so wouldn't this stone gate be an ancient thing!

And what makes me even more curious is what is behind this stone door! I can't guess, I can't imagine at all.

The things of antiquity have gone far beyond what we can understand and speculate. This feeling makes my scalp tingle for a while! At the same time, an irrepressible urge surged inside me, an urge to get to the truth.

I held back the surging in my heart and continued to look down, and there was nothing too special about the murals below, which were basically conventional descriptions of the politics, military, and economy of the Shan Huan Ancient Kingdom itself, as well as the exchanges and trade with some surrounding tribal groups.

However, there are a few descriptions that should be noted, as the original meandering river on the mural has become much smaller. Then there are the depictions of several works, which appear to have built new cities and dug a tunnel underground.

Seeing this, I know that the second uncle's analysis is correct, the Tuya Ancient River has indeed been diverted, and then the people of the Shan Huan Ancient Kingdom established the Acropolis according to the change of the river, and then opened the passage between the Acropolis and the Wangcheng, thus forming this feng shui pattern of the birth of ten thousand dragons.

Looking further back, the entire mural is nearing the end, and according to the content on the mural, I don't know how long it took for the leader of the Shan Huan Kingdom, that is, the man with two wings on the beak of the human-faced bird, to pass away! The people carried his body through the huge stone door. In the last mural, I saw that after the leader's body was sent to the stone gate, the deformed weirdos with long faces, long hands, and long arms crawled out of the stone gate! When I saw this, my heart suddenly jumped. OMG! What the hell happened here! Could it be that all the corpses of the deformed monsters on the cliff burial group came from like this? What the hell are they!

This is the end of the mural, and although I have gained a lot of information from it, there are still too many mysteries. I couldn't help but look into the depths of the passage, hoping that the answer I wanted was ahead. Although I know that there are many difficulties and dangers, although I have thought about quitting and leaving countless times before, but now that I have come here, after seeing this, if I am allowed to leave now, I will definitely not be reconciled! Alas, curiosity kills! Let's take it one step at a time!

I turned to look at Wenmo and found him standing not far from the passage, staring at the darkness ahead.

I raised the flashlight and shone it around, because the space here is very high, there is still a lot of space above these murals, I wanted to see if there are any important clues missing, but when I shine the flashlight, I suddenly found that there is a black cave overhead, and what is even more strange is that the entrance of this cave is square, obviously artificially chiseled.

I raised my hand and said, "Look, what is that place?" ”

The others looked in the direction I pointed, and basically all of them showed surprised expressions, but Wenmo had a calm face.

Shi Tao touched the climbing rope on his backpack, "Shall we go up and have a look?" ”

At this time, Wen Mo said lightly: "I have already been to the above, just when you met the squirrel." ”

I hurriedly asked, "Is there anything in there?" What did you find? ”

Wen Mo shook his head, "Nothing, maybe there was, but now it's gone, but there is a very powerful mechanism in it, which almost trapped me and delayed time, so it's too late to go back to save you." But if you must go, be careful! ”

Hearing Wen Mo say this, we waved our hands again and again, "Forget it, since this is the case, let's not take unnecessary risks." "I know that if it's really like Wenmo said, people like him are almost trapped inside, and with a skill like us, there is a chance that they won't be able to get out! And looking at this place, even if something has been spared, it is definitely not the key core here, and we still have to move forward as soon as possible.

I stepped forward and patted it, still looking at Wen Mo in front of me, "Boss, let's keep walking!" ”

Wen Mo nodded and took the lead in walking forward. I remembered one thing, just now when we were looking at the mural, Wenmo was crouching by the wall as if observing something. I wondered what he was looking at.

So I deliberately walked at the back of the line, and when I passed by the place where Wenmo was just now, I immediately squatted down and shone a flashlight at the base of the wall while Wenmo in front of me was not paying attention.

After a quick search, I immediately noticed a small pattern in the lower part of the stone wall. This pattern appears independently on the stone wall of the passage, which is somewhat abrupt, and it is obvious that it was carved later.

The pattern was already covered with dust, and it had somewhat concealed its original shape, so I wiped it with my hand, and when I saw it, my hand couldn't help but tremble.

This pattern is almost exactly the same as the shape of the symbol engraved by the second uncle at the three forks of the river!

But there is still a certain difference between the two, first of all, in terms of form, this pattern seems to be more regular than the one engraved by the second uncle, and the details are more abundant.

But the biggest difference between the two, and the one that puzzles me the most, is that this symbol has obviously been here for quite a long time, unlike the one left by the second uncle, the traces are very new. So, what does this symbol mean? Who left it? And what is the connection between the person who left the pattern and the second uncle and Wenmo?

I couldn't help but feel a little big when I thought about this, and I found that as we went deeper, we discovered some truths at the same time, but also fell into more mysteries. I closed my eyes vigorously, stood up, glanced at the mural on the wall again, and turned to chase forward, but I had just taken two steps and was full of excitement, and I felt as if I had seen something in that glimpse!
