Chapter 294: Thousands of Miles Away
Everyone's eyes immediately turned to the corner of the wall, where the strange image of a human face was hidden in the shadows.
The man had a strange face, long eyes squinting to the side, a short nose wrinkled, a long, jagged mouth, the corners of which rose to the earlobe.
It's like a ghost crawling out of the shadows.
"It's exactly what the statues in the pyramids look like." The man walked over and looked at it carefully, and a strange color appeared in his eyes: "However, this kind of image rarely appears in the entire shadow cellar, as if it were something that did not belong to the original here, just like those Indian symbols. ”
"You can see this in terms of stylistic differences. And ......"
Jiang Xian's eyes narrowed slightly, walked under the wall, and reached out to pick up a shell: "Here, there are also shells." ”
"Shellfish belonging to the Indian Ocean."
"I don't remember that there is such a humanoid statue in India......" Long Tiansheng showed a thoughtful look on his face, recalling his own experience in his mind: "There should be none, the characteristics of this kind of statue are very prominent, if I have seen it, I should remember it." ”
Lin Ruoxue didn't speak, he looked at the mountains, rivers and lakes on the mural, although the brushwork was rough and not exquisite, but the brush strokes still roughly outlined the general situation of these areas, and she faintly felt a little familiar.
"Mr. Jiang, there are words here."
Xue Rong's voice came, Jiang Xian immediately looked over, only to see the other party pointing to the masonry at the bottom of the wall, there were some faint messy ink on it, which was already a little difficult to see under the erosion of the years, but after careful identification and analysis, he could still guess the meaning of some words.
The sentence was very short, the font was regular script, and he looked at it intently: "The scene here is no longer a dragon and tiger, and it is ...... thousands of miles away."
The handwriting on the back was no longer legible, but Jiang Xian relied on his guess and thought of the location of the wall scene described in the back, but unfortunately he couldn't see it clearly.
He touched the back of the handwriting with some pity, but suddenly felt that something was wrong: "Here, there are traces of vandalism!" ”
"Someone doesn't want to associate the murals here with the location thousands of miles away!"
His eyes narrowed, and he couldn't help but look at the surrounding murals: "The handwriting here is in regular script in willow style, which is obviously the handwriting left by people after the late Tang Dynasty." After that, in addition to the Heavenly Master, there were Mao Ziyuan, Ba Sipa, Yuanting Emperor, White Lotus Sect, Ning Wang and Wang Yangming. ”
"Among these people, after the Heavenly Master lost the White Lotus Lamp, the only one who knows most about this place is Mao Ziyuan."
He was the only one who deliberately revealed his whereabouts and led Pasipa to the mosquito-free village...... If you want to explore the secrets here, you have to block it within a certain range. ”
"If the last few words can reveal some information, then it is normal for him to erase it."
Jiang Xian's mind turned, he took out his mobile phone to take a picture of the handwriting on the wall, looked at the mural on the wall again, and suddenly a crisp voice came into his ears: "I know!" I know what's painted on this wall! ”
Lin Ruoxue's face showed a sudden look, everyone's eyes were attracted, he pointed to one of the peaks and said: "This is the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in Dali, next to it is the stone forest in Kunming, and here is Fuxian Lake......
"The mountains and rivers here, the scenery here, are all the characteristics of southern Yunnan!"
Southern Yunnan!?
Everyone was stunned, Lu Tianyuan and the others looked at Jiang Xian, they remembered clearly that the copper furnace in the passage from the second to the third layer was made of the keel taken by Wang Yangming from southern Yunnan!
"Shells of the Indian Ocean, keels of southern Yunnan, murals of southern Yunnan ......"
Jiang Xian's face was silent, and his heart was already flooded: "Is this really related to southern Yunnan?" ”
"And ...... Where are the other messages from the patriarch? ”
"Jiangxi Province and southern Yunnan are separated by thousands of miles...... Chen Shiyun swayed with dust in his hand, and his footsteps slowly walked to the left and right: "If there was a connection in ancient times, it means that the cultural exchanges between the Central Plains and the outside world are more distant than we think." ”
"That's right, it's more than that." The man with the knife straightened his hat; "At that time, if you wanted to communicate across such a long distance, not to mention the difficulties and obstacles, there were still so many tribes in the middle. The possibility of being intercepted is not small, and it is impossible to have stable contact at all. ”
"Unless ......"
"The tribes in southern Yunnan have what everyone needs, or these tribes belong to the same alliance."
Everyone's eyes looked at each other at once, and the alliance of the ancient tribal states and all the forces gathered......
"Sounds so much like the depiction of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors period in ancient books?" Chen Shiyun's eyes moved slightly: "In ancient times, there were three emperors and five emperors...... Could it be that Rong Wu really belonged to that period? Is there a record of that period? ”
In the room, there was silence for a while, and when everyone looked at each other, they all saw the light in each other's eyes.
Before Xia Shang, Tang Yao Yu Shun.
Among the five emperors, there are only a few records related to Di Yao and Di Shun in the history books, and there are almost no records about their Tang and Yu kingdoms. It was a more mysterious and ancient period than the Xia Dynasty.
Although the remains of Liangzhu are constantly being excavated, many people think that it is Yu Shun, but there is no particularly strong evidence after all.
If it can be found here, and evidence can be found to confirm it, it will fill the gap in the ancient history of China, and what is recorded in the history books will no longer be legends and myths.
Of course, the most important thing now is to continue to explore and examine all of these things clearly.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Xian got up, his eyes swept over the wall, looking at the murals one by one, and suddenly stopped.
It was a painted stream that looked indistinguishable from the rest of the river. But he recognized it at a glance, and several traces in it were left by the ancestor! He continued to observe quietly, and soon carefully examined all the murals on the walls.
"Patriarch...... It's a big deal. ”
He secretly sighed in his heart, just during the inspection just now, he found that all the murals on this wall had traces of only additions!
Whether it is a simple stroke or a few lines, the added brushstrokes and the murals on the wall are perfectly integrated. If you don't know the secret words of the mountains and seas very well, you can't see the difference between those traces and the rest of the points.
Suppressing the exclamation in his heart, he carefully observed and interpreted the information above:
"If you don't come down with the white lotus lamp, leave right now."
"The fact that the juniors of the mountains and seas continue to come to this shadow cellar can only mean that I have failed, and the horror of the road behind is not something that human beings can resist."
"What's more, you don't know how many years after me, under this netherworld evolution, how many ghosts should appear, and the danger you face can only be higher than mine. The white lotus lamp is there, and there is still a glimmer of life, if you don't bring it, then go back quickly, find it and come down again. ”
"Back then, Zhang Ling and I built a safe path for people to pass through and leave this floor, and the specific location was marked below."
"Remember not to be reckless, there is hope in life."
"In this house, there is a secret passage that leads to the back of the fourth floor, avoiding many monsters, and the way to open it is hidden between these murals."
Jiang Xian quickly wrote down the description of the passage on the mural and continued to read. The rest is followed by some warnings and explanations about which area is more dangerous and complex, and some monsters can be avoided.
This information is combined with the information left by the previous ancestor, although there are some contradictions and differences, but Jiang Xian vaguely outlines some general situations.
He settled down, walked to the corner of the wall, reached out and grabbed the strange raised face on the wall, and writhed from side to side.
At first, the wall didn't move, but after dozens of twists, only a soft click was heard, and the whole strange face slowly turned.
Then, the sound of clockwork turning came one after another, under the feet, on the walls, above ...... There were sounds and vibrations in all directions, and wisps of dust drifted down. The statues of the beasts at the four corners turned, and the stone slabs in the center of the house suddenly shook, and then sank sharply, revealing a pitch-black passageway.
The sound and vibration of the previous time were also extinguished at the same time.
When everyone came to the cave, Long Tiansheng stroked his beard: "The traces are very old, and they are grafted into the organs of the entire house. Later people wanted to do this, unless they demolished the whole room and the surrounding rooms. ”
"Moreover, this entrance is very small, only about two square meters." Lu Tianyuan thought in his mind: "There is no problem for ordinary people to enter nature, but if they are giants, there is no possibility at all, so this passage is left for ordinary people." ”
"Interesting...... Long Tiansheng smiled: "The stone chamber built in ancient times, but it can only be passed by ordinary people and not the owner of this tomb, it seems that the builder also has his own ideas, is he afraid of martyrdom?" ”
Jiang Xian recalled the words on the stone slab below Zhouhu Village, and said secretly in his heart: "If I remember correctly, the 'Pan' was built here by his believers...... But whether it is under the mosquito-free village of Zhouhu Village or here, those believers in Rongwu have their own thoughts when they build these areas. ”
Deities and believers......
Slowly, he took the lead and walked down the stone staircase.
The stairs were not high, but only two or three meters, and they quickly came to the point. Flashlights shone through the dark passages, and the neat stone slabs and walls formed a smooth path forty or fifty meters wide.
"Huh?" Yamamoto's flashlight shone on his feet and the wall, and he said with some astonishment: "Old Long, how do I feel that the construction of this passage is even more careful than the palace above?" The floor and walls should be smoother......"
