Chapter 4: The Lost Civilization
After the strong light disappeared, it took a long time for Lin Yu's eyes to return to normal and he was able to see his surroundings clearly.
It was another pile of rubble, and the people fell around, and there were many wails.
Everyone was discouraged, and crawled out of the rubble with their hands and feet.
First they were in a pile of rubble, but instead of the dark cave they had been, they were surrounded by a valley with beautiful mountains and rivers.
The surrounding giant trees are green, and countless strange flowers are dotted among them, like a fairyland on earth.
Although it is green and not very bright, the field of vision can still be seen dozens of meters away.
In the open valley, there are several houses hidden in the greenery, which is quaint and natural.
At first glance, it is quite extraordinary, full of fairy spirit.
There is a white mist brewing in the mountains and forests, like the spirit of nature, a group of peaceful.
If they hadn't known that the white mist had killed people, they would have thought they had come to a paradise.
Everyone stood in place, looking at the white mist flowing all over the ground with great fear, as if they were looking at a flood beast.
Some of the timid ones even want to shout, don't come here!
I don't want to spit out oil and coal slag!
"Don't be afraid!"
Yao Anyi smiled, took a simple golden rattan cane from the hands of his subordinates, and walked forward.
Yao Anyi, who is dressed in a black suit, looks particularly mysterious.
Especially after picking up this rattan cane.
"Don't!"
Someone exclaimed.
Yao Anyi actually walked directly to the low hill in front of him, and there was a white mist entwined on it.
Lin Yu's eyes widened as well.
The white mist actually seemed to have spirituality, and it retreated.
Wherever Yao Anyi went, the white mist continued to dissipate.
This magical scene is simply incredible.
Lin Yu thought about it, it should be the rattan cane, otherwise Yao Anyi would not have brought it in out of thin air.
Moreover, Yao Anyi must know something about this place.
"Academician Yao, what kind of place is this, do you know?"
Sure enough, someone asked the question.
They inexplicably came in as if they had crossed over, and they felt that this space was very strange, and there was an indescribable feeling.
It's like you've come to an otherworldly continent.
Fortunately, there have been so many bizarre things that have happened over the years, all of which cannot be explained by science, so everyone has become commonplace.
Yao Anyi smiled slightly, "As early as a few decades ago, our country discovered the relics of civilization that surpassed the Xia Dynasty, but it was only for some reasons that science could not explain that they could not be made public. This rattan cane was obtained from the previous great ruin. ”
Lin Yu's heart moved slightly, it seemed that Yao Anyi and his party really came with a purpose.
Compared to them being confused, Yao Anyi must know more.
Yao Anyi only mentioned it slightly, and did not mean to say it further.
Professor Du followed, "Let's go, let's see if we can find the source of this white mist!"
He also saw that something was wrong with Yao Anyi and his party, but with the obsession of scientific discovery, he didn't think much about it.
The well water does not interfere with the river water, as long as Yao Anyi and the others do not obstruct them from finding the source.
As soon as the group climbed the low hill, there was another pile of rubble in front of them.
It's the same as before.
"It's also an altar, as if it was shattered by some force, and then part of it has crossed into the underground cave from before. The white mist was also at that point in time, leaking through a little and just in time being inhaled by our people. ”
Professor Du looked around and came to a conclusion.
Many people nodded their heads in disagreement.
This should be closer to the truth.
Yao Anyi smiled, "It's definitely an altar, there is usually a monument to the sky, look for it, if you can find the monument to the sky, maybe you can know what this altar is for! Maybe you can get some valuable information." ”
The mountains and forests stretch out in all directions, and the silence makes people's hearts tremble.
You can only rummage through the rubble in front of you to see if there is any useful information.
One is to find the source of the white mist, and the other is to think about how to go back.
At least where they had just been, there was nowhere for them to go back.
Maybe this altar is also used for teleportation?
They can be sucked in here, or they can be brought back to the underground cave.
Seeing the big men brought by Yao Anyi rummaging hard, Lin Yu also looked around.
It's just that in front of everyone, he can't cover his palms with stone armor, so he can be faster.
"Here!" Yao Anyi waved his hand.
Soon a stone tablet was cleared out, one meter square, densely packed with strange words.
"This is actually a variant of the Jiahu tortoiseshell rune, and if you can read the Jiahu tortoiseshell rune in Henan, you can understand this inscription. Yao Anyi photographed the monument.
Professor Du squatted down and studied carefully, he had studied the Jiahu tortoiseshell rune.
"Four rods of breath, twenty-three ropes, the dawn of the dawn, sacrifice to the sky to tell the ......"
“...... Since the spirit is desolate, the clan is withered, and the aura of the Immortal Palace is scarce...... There's a paragraph here that isn't clear. ”
"Get the Kunlun Three Thousand World Law, lock the ...... of the Immortal Palace"
There are only a few sentences that can be accurately translated from the inscription, and some things can still be figured out.
This ruin is called the Palace of Eternal Life, which was originally a large clan, but when it encountered a spiritual famine, the population withered.
I don't know what the spiritual desolation is, is it the disappearance of the aura?
Kunlun is also mentioned in the inscription, it should be a person from Kunlun, who passed on a three-thousand-world law to the Immortal Palace, so that the Immortal Palace was locked, I don't know what it means.
This is so bizarre that many people don't believe it.
Those who are engaged in scientific research don't believe in these things, and even if some bizarre things happened before, they still feel that this is too outrageous.
Will the plot that only appears in fantasy novels happen in reality?
Are some of the stories in ancient myths true?
What aura, what cultivation, and magic circle......
But Lin Yuxin.
He had been secretly observing Yao Anyi's expression just now, and it seemed that Yao Anyi could also understand some Jiahu tortoiseshell runes, but he covered it up and asked Professor Du to translate it.
Perhaps, the ancient civilization that preceded the Xia Dynasty was a cultivation civilization?
"Since this Immortal Palace Lord is here to worship the heavens, then the Immortal Palace must also be here. Yao Anyi looked around, walking around at will, looking at the higher place.
"Are we going to continue our search for the Immortal Palace?"
"Could it be that this white mist is aura, and the source is in the locked Immortal Palace?"
"If it's an aura, why die?"
"If you don't have a cultivation method, you may not be able to refine. This aura is a type of energy source, which is specially supplied to human beings, just like oil and coal. Man can't refine it, so it is converted into petroleum, coal, or even radioactive uranium ore in the body!"
Everyone was talking and discussing, and the more they talked about it, the more fantasy they became, and they all leaned on the plot of the fantasy novel.
Professor Du shook his head slightly, "According to this, this white mist is aura, and the ancient spirit is desolate, and this aura is almost dissipated, which means that there is no source, and there is no energy?"
Everyone's speculation frustrated him, and the expression on his face faded a little.
Judging from all indications, everyone's speculation may be reliable.
But maybe it's just speculation.
Professor Du lifted his spirits and motioned for everyone to move on.
Since you've come and can't find a place to go out for the time being, you have to see what kind of place this is.
The Law of the Three Thousand Worlds, is this one of the Three Thousand Worlds?
"Academician Yao, what is the research direction of your visit this time?"
Lin Yu suddenly asked such a question.
He had wanted to ask for a long time, but had been waiting for the right moment.
Unlike the others, he was always on high alert and always felt that something was going to happen.
What happens in the dream, hope is not a prophecy.
Others were also very interested, how could Yao Anyi suddenly appear here.
After all, Yao Anyi is a biological gene scientist, and has always focused on online gene editing of human beings, so that human beings can become perfect superhumans.
Study genes, what are you doing here?
Yao Anyi's smile was even brighter, "On the stone tablet of another ruin, there is also a record of spiritual desolation and aura. This is somewhat similar to what is recorded in some ancient books, and the Xiuzhen civilization was suddenly interrupted, and thus began to turn to the scientific and technological civilization. Of course, I'm not here for archaeology, but if I really find the legendary people of the Xiuzhen civilization, I think there must be a surprise in their genes, so that we can no longer suffer from viruses. ”
He looked around and said movingly: "In the 2022 Great Plague, we humans have suffered a catastrophe. Facts have proved that scientific civilization has degraded all aspects of human beings, and genetic evolution has become a dead end. Therefore, if the Xiuzhen civilization cannot be restarted, I think it is possible to reproduce the human genes in the era of genetic civilization, so that we will never have to be so fragile that we are defeated by the virus from now on!"
The others nodded.
This is the biggest problem facing humanity!
In the past, many scientists argued that human beings have greatly degraded themselves because of scientific civilization and lost the possibility of evolution.
Apes can evolve into humans by using tools and walking upright.
However, after the high development of scientific civilization, human beings have indeed lost the previous path of evolution.
Many people used to think that human beings no longer need to evolve and have been highly perfect, but under the great plague, under the great catastrophe, it turned out to be so fragile and helpless.
Some people are moved.
Yao Anyi's purpose was very terrifying, he wanted to find the human corpse of the ancient Xiuzhen civilization and get the ancient genes.
But apparently, everyone was convinced.
Even ignoring the ancient Xiuzhen civilization, if the human corpse really existed, would it release the ancient virus at the same time?
No one knows this!
But humanity has apparently had enough!
I don't want to endure the catastrophe that goes on and on!
Yao Anyi nodded, "Let's go!" These white mist should be the loss of effect of the magic circle, causing the entire small world to begin to collapse, so the scene just now appeared. We're going to get out as soon as possible, or find a way to control the circle. The Palace of Eternal Life may have the answer we want. ”
Now there is no other way but to listen to Yao Anyi.
They left the rubble pile and began to explore this strange space, the so-called Immortal Habitat.
Yao Anyi insisted on finding the Immortal Palace, and the others had no opinion.
Maybe there is more information in the Palace of Eternal Life, and even some opportunities can be obtained.
Not only can they leave safely, but they can also have adventures.
On both sides are towering mountains, and in the middle is a narrow road, which has been traversed for a long time before the light of day.
It's a valley.
In the distance, probably in the middle of the valley, there was a towering giant tree, and the top of the giant tree emitted a white light, which was the source of light for the whole small world.
Judging from this side, the giant tree is hundreds of meters high, right?
Everyone was shocked and quickened their pace.
