035, silent gold

Despite some mental preparation, Hua Zhenxing was still so frightened that he couldn't speak. Ding Qi patted him: "The so-called opening of the door is actually only at the moment of entry and exit, and no one else can see it." I deliberately opened the portal for you to show like this, so let's hurry up and get in. ”

Hua Zhenxing stupidly followed Ding Qi into the secret realm, and subconsciously turned around, the passage between the huge rocks had disappeared, and what he saw was a rock wall, and where there should have been a "door", it was a gold-inlaid mural.

The mountain walls in this area have been flattened, and there is a plane about ten meters wide in the middle, which extends diagonally on both sides. The mural in the middle is about two huge rocks, which are the motifs of the Hidden Gate outside the secret realm.

Hua Zhenxing made up his mind and said, "What kind of place is this?" ”

Ding Qi looked into the distance and said, "It should be the legendary kingdom of the gods, and I am here for the first time." ”

Hua Zhenxing: "Who is kneeling here, why did he die here, and where did everyone else go?" ”

Ding Qi sighed and said, "This person died about fifty years ago, and the others haven't seen it yet. Don't ask me yet, let's take a look. It's a big place, and it may take a long time to walk around. ”

Old man Yang, who was watching from a distance, frowned and said, "I can't sense Xiaohua at all, what about you?" ”

Ke Mengchao replied, "Is this Teacher Xiao Ding really coming for the first time?" went in so easily, just like going to his own home, and brought Xiaohua in. He is not the heir of the secret realm here, let alone the master of the secret realm, this skill is quite good! ”

Mo Shangtong: "The evolution of the world, future generations always have something that their predecessors can't do, and there is a specialization in the art industry, and the more the times progress, the more so." At least in this respect, that teacher Xiaoding is better than the three of us, this is other people's profession, and it is a major that has not been done before. Unlike some people, they must follow the law of the kings. ”

Yang Tehong: "Why bother with some people, you just say Xiao Meng can't get it." ”

Ke Mengchao: "What year and month is this, you can't chew it if you catch a fart?" ”

Mo Shangtong asked rhetorically: "In this way, you yourself admit that you were farting back then?" ”

Yang Tehong stroked his palm and smiled: "This is an interesting question, a typical ink debate style!" ”

Ke Mengchao turned to the side and said, "Future generations can do what their predecessors cannot, but also!" Future generations will be able to do what their predecessors cannot, or else! Just take the phrase 'follow the law of the first king' to catch my sore feet, so why don't you say anything else?

The way of the university is in Mingmingde, in Xinmin, and in the perfection! Gou is new, every day is new, and every day is new. Be a new people. Although Zhou is an old state, his life is renewed, and he is the old gentleman who does everything he can...... Can't you smell any of this?

As small as a family, as large as a state and a country, as far as you and I can see, the prosperity and decline or even the decline before the prosperity, those who have long since died out are like carp crossing the river, let alone one person? Therefore, we should not assert that future generations will defeat our predecessors, but we should think more about how future generations can be better than our predecessors.

If we talk about the facts, the example is right in front of us, which is the so-called kingdom of God, where are the people today? Even if I farted back then, it was something special! And you, you can't chew a fart when you catch it, can you only smell it? ”

Yang Tehong interjected: "Lao Mo, you pressed Xiao Meng's switch, and he turned on the bar essence mode...... What are you arguing about, why are we here? ”

Ke Mengchao: "What kind of bar spirit am I?" It's really unreasonable! We are here for Xiaohua, let's just say that Xiaohua's dream, if you dream but don't really do it, it's just a dream. ”

Mo Shangtong was not angry after being scolded for a long time, and still said nonchalantly: "That's right, you can't engage in the kind of gentleman who doesn't use his mouth, he can only talk and cannon, it's not a real skill, and he does it himself." ”

Ke Mengchao: "If you don't see the lessons of your predecessors, you will go further on the wrong path." ”

Yang Tehong said in a summary tone as a leader: "So don't dwell on any predecessors and descendants here, I think we have to follow the way of nature." If you go the other way, you will die. ”

The three old men quarreled like this, which is a scene that Hua Zhenxing has been accustomed to since childhood. Not to mention how they were bickering outside, Hua Zhenxing followed Ding Qi into the secret realm. This secret realm or the kingdom of the gods is indeed not small, the overall shape is olive-shaped, from east to west more than 40 kilometers long, from south to north width of nearly 30 kilometers, the total area is about 1,000 square kilometers.

Completely different from the tribal legends outside, don't talk about Wakanda, it's a dead world. Dead silence is not a complete absence of sound, but a feeling. The air here is very fresh, there is a breeze blowing in the wilderness, and the vegetation is not as desolate as outside, but there is no one to see, and walking in it is inexplicable and my heart is hairy.

The portal was located near the easternmost point of the Realm, and they descended the altar-like platform, through the square and valley in front of it, and first reached the hillside where the buildings were scattered.

Most of the buildings on this hillside are made of stone, and the aborigines outside rarely build their houses out of stone. These stone houses are square and round, and the roofs are sloped. As for the roof, straw curtains were basically laid on wooden beams and planks, and now they are basically decayed, but traces can still be seen.

There is a saying about the durability of wooden components: dry for a thousand years, wet for 10,000 years, not dry or wet for a few years. If the wood is completely soaked in water, it is actually difficult to decay, and even gradually becomes sinking wood, and dry wood can be preserved for a long time if it is not eaten by insects. The most feared thing about wood is repeated dampness and insect erosion, which will quickly decay.

There was obviously rain here too, there were no tiles on the roof to keep the water out, and the grass and wood structures had long since collapsed. There are no people and no corpses in these buildings, but there are many daily furnishings and utensils left behind. Hua Zhenxing did not find fired bricks in the building materials, but found pottery in the lost vessels, many of which were still faience.

The utensils here are wooden, stone, bone,, ceramic, and even a large number of gold vessels, all of which are beautifully made. The legendary kingdom of the gods is full of gold, and this is true. But Hua Zhenxing did not find iron tools, not even bronze tools.

Walking around the complex, Hua Zhenxing muttered, "When is this a relic of the Stone Age?" ”

On the gentle slope below the complex, there were some neatly stacked piles of rubble, half-hidden among the barren grass, and Tincchi stopped and said, "Pottery and the Golden Age, to be precise." The building is not too old, roughly dating back hundreds of years. What do you see when I test you? ”

Ding Qi is worthy of being a teacher, and he actually had an exam question on the spot. Hua Zhenxing looked back at this dilapidated abandoned building, scratched the back of his head and said: "This building complex is not small, and I feel that there are many people living in the heyday. Some of the rooms are spacious, cozy, and beautifully furnished, but the small houses next to them are much more basic.

It is likely that some nobles lived here, as well as servants who waited on them. But then the place decayed, and the inhabitants became less and less, until they became extinct. Such houses, especially the roofs, need to be maintained, and the degree of preservation varies greatly, indicating that some houses have long been unoccupied, and some houses have been abandoned last. ”

Ding Qi smiled: "Your observation is okay, so where are the people here?" ”

Hua Zhenxing: "It should be gone, the population is getting smaller and smaller, until it is extinct......" Speaking of this, he shivered inexplicably, feeling that the breeze blowing through carried a sense of tranquility.

Ding Qi: "The ancestors may no longer be there, or they may not even be able to find the tombs, but what about the last group of people to die, where are they?" ”

Hua Zhenxing was suddenly startled, pointed to the pile of rubble among the barren grass and said, "They, they are here!" ”

Ding Qi nodded and said, "Yes, the last group of people here are buried here, but there is always the last person who is not buried, where is he?" ”

Hua Zhenxing: "It's the one who knelt in front of the exit of the secret realm!" In the end, he was left alone, he wanted to get out but couldn't! ”

Ding Qi looked at the hillside and said, "Let's go, let's go and look elsewhere." ”

Turning over the hillside, there is a relatively high valley plain in front of you, and the flat shape of the land looks like the remains of farmland in some places, and there are several abandoned villages. Those stone houses are already very primitive in Hua Zhenxing's eyes, but compared to these village buildings, they are simply mansions.

The abandoned village building is the simplest earthen wall and grass roof, and the hole left in the earthen wall is even if it is a door, and there is not even a door panel, which is not decayed, but it was not there before. There are many stone artifacts left in the village, few pottery, and many wooden objects, and surprisingly, there are also many gold objects scattered here.

Gold is real gold, but it is not as delicate as what Fang just saw, and it doesn't look too pure. What kind of place is this, even the lowest inhabitants use gold as a tool on weekdays?

The two climbed over another hill, looked through the fields at the foot of the mountain, and saw the outline of a city in the distance. It can't be described as a modern city, but it is like a large village and town, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people. The stone complex they saw when they first came in could accommodate up to a few hundred people.

Walking through the wilderness towards the city, there were no large animals to be found in this dead world, no birds flying in the sky, only a few insects, scorpions, voles and lizards on the ground, and the half-foot-long lizard seemed to be the largest species in the place.

None of these animals had horns, and it is not known where the artifacts came from, or there were once large mammals with horns, but they also became extinct...... Hua Zhenxing guessed as he walked.

The buildings on the outskirts of the city have been so badly ruined that they are similar to those in the villages, and the further you go to the center, the more elaborate and well-preserved the houses become, and many of them have stone foundations, and the various daily utensils left in them are more beautiful......

They finally reached the center of the city, where a stone wall surrounded a building, and outside the wall there was a ring of tall and lush trees.

Ding Qi opened his mouth and said, "Xiaohua, have you noticed? We didn't see any big trees along the way, and as far as I could see, at least none of them were more than 50 years old, and I think they were all cut down to get timber. However, no one cut down the trees outside the wall, indicating that this place is very special, perhaps an area like the royal palace in the past. ”

Hua Zhenxing pulled him: "Teacher Ding, don't forget to come along, these trees are poisonous!" ”

These trees grow very tall, fifteen or six meters at the highest point of the canopy, and the weeping branches that are dragged to the ground and the horizontal branches that grow low are intertwined next to each other, so that there is no hole to drill in the dense crowd. The branches are spiky, the olive-shaped leaves have faint white hairs, and the green fruits shaped like begonias hang from them, as if forming another natural barrier outside the courtyard wall.

Look at the piles of dead branches and leaves under the tree, and there are many rotten or semi-rotten fallen fruits, exuding a fermented smell similar to fruit wine. Ding Qi frowned slightly and said, "The breath is wrong, it seems to have the effect of poisonous burning, what kind of tree is this?" ”

Hua Zhenxing: "The locals outside call it the stinging throat wood, even if it is scraped on the skin by the white hair on the leaves, it will burn unbearably, like being burned, and being pierced by the spikes on the branches will be more serious, so it must not be stained by its juice, if you mistakenly take the fruit, it will kill people." Fortunately, it is only a biotoxin, which can be decomposed naturally and will not pollute the environment, so it will be fine if you stay away. ”

Ding Qi sighed and said, "Planting here should have a guardian effect." ”

The stone wall is easy to climb through, and the other buildings in the area don't have any security or security facilities, so it doesn't seem to even have this concept. If the inside of the walls is the "royal palace", it must at least show that it is different from the others, so this circle of thornthroat wood is equivalent to the "royal guard".

At this moment, Hua Zhenxing was suddenly slightly stunned, as if he heard the "system" prompt in his mind again.
