001 Spooky in the desert
In 2015, a Chinese archaeological team discovered a strange lake in the very center of the Taklamakan Desert.
It is strange because the lake appeared suddenly, not a man-made 'discovery'.
The length and width of the lake are thousands of feet away, and the area is quite huge. It's just that in this vast and boundless desert, it is a little inconspicuous. However, to everyone's surprise, on the east and west sides of this lake, there are huge stone statues dozens of feet high.
On the east side, there is a long-bearded old man with a clear wind bone, holding a whisk of dust, chic and elegant. On the west side, on the opposite side, there is a big man with a fierce face and a fierce aura all over his body, holding a giant spear, and his power is unparalleled. The two stone statues are lifelike and without a single blemish, which is by no means possible with modern craftsmanship.
Similarly, behind each stone statue is a large ancient character, similar to an oracle bone inscription, but plausible.
In addition to the stone statues, the most peculiar thing is the lake between the two stone statues. Approaching half of the lake surface of the Xianfeng Dao bone stone statue, the lake water presents colorful and dazzling colors. Half of the lake near the fierce man was dark green, dull and depressing.
The two completely different streams of water stuck in place and did not seep into each other. The whole scene is a little weird, but the specific feeling is indescribable.
Not far from the lake, four men and two women sat on their backpacks, looking at the strange scene in front of them in bewilderment.
Liu Feng is a member of this archaeological team, he is just 25 years old this year, and because he has been running around various historical sites all these years, he looks only average. I have been part of this archaeological team for a year and have seen many secrets of the world. After staring for a moment, he turned his head to look at the oldest senior in the crowd - Zhou Ru. The old man is in his 60s and is a veteran of Chinese archaeology. "Old Zhou, with your old experience, what does this belong to the dynasty? Moreover, the way it appeared is too bizarre, right?"
Zhou Ru nodded and said, "I'm afraid I've never encountered such a thing in my life, as if it appeared out of thin air." I just took a closer look, and the age of those two stone statues is probably thousands, tens of thousands of years! or even longer. However, the development of human beings is only a few thousand years, which is very contradictory. ”
A burly young man sitting next to Liu Feng said with a smile: "Elder Zhou, could it be that the year is wrong because of being in the desert area? After all, the temperature difference in the desert is not the same as in the city. ”
Liu Feng smiled when he heard this: "Li Fei, if Elder Zhou can say this, he has naturally taken these things into account. Even if there is an error, it is definitely within a hundred years. But since this stone statue is about 10,000 years old, it is enough to highlight their extraordinary. ”
Li Fei frowned and nodded, and then said happily: "In this way, we will definitely be able to make a name for ourselves by then...... It seems that the time has come to get ahead. ”
Liu Feng smiled noncommittally: "Archaeology is to discover the truth of history and unearth more secrets hidden in this world. Instead of ......"
"Humph!"
Li Fei snorted coldly, "As long as you are selfless, we are all villains who sell our reputations, right?"
Liu Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head, but stopped talking. Zhou Ru glanced at Li Fei and said lightly: "What Liu Feng said is not wrong, if archaeology is just to become famous and obtain money, then what is the difference between it and tomb robbers?"
Everyone catered to each other, and the two girls were named Zhao Lin and Lu Li, because they ran in various scenes all year round. Originally, they were only medium in appearance, but after being exposed to the wind and sun, they became more and more ordinary. However, the two love archaeology and don't care about their appearance. Another man is Song Yuhu, who is thin and usually silent.
Liu Feng, Li Fei, Zhao Lin and Lu Li are all newcomers who have just joined the archaeological team for a year. This time, it was originally to find out the dynasties that existed in the desert before, but unexpectedly, as soon as I went deep into the center of the desert, I came across this lake and appeared out of thin air.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it appeared out of thin air. At that time, the six of them were moving slowly, but there was a sudden sand and dust in front of them, and a small sandstorm broke out, and everyone was well prepared. One step ahead of the camel to avoid the impact of the sandstorm.
After the sandstorm passed, everyone was stunned by the lake that appeared in front of them. As soon as he found out, Zhou Ru asked Song Yuhu to notify the relevant departments by satellite phone. It was hoped that more people would be sent over, and several people rested nearby after watching for a while without results.
Zhou Ru wrote the words on the stone statue on the desert over and over again, his brows were tightly locked, and he seemed to have encountered a lot of trouble, and Liu Feng and the others only had to watch.
The word seems to be...... It's a bit like ......."
Zhou Ru groaned in his mouth, and then observed the two stone statues, and said to himself: "It seems that this is what it means." ”
Liu Feng said puzzledly: "Old Zhou, what are those two words?"
Zhou Ru pondered for a moment, and then said slowly: "If I guess correctly, the handwriting on the back of the stone statue of the long-bearded old man is the word 'immortal', and the corresponding stone statue is the word 'demon'. ”
"Immortals?"
Liu Feng chuckled and said, "Could it be that a certain dynasty believed in immortals and demons to establish it?"
Zhou Ru shook his head and did not express an opinion.
Liu Feng also knew that the situation he was talking about was impossible at all, and then pondered: "According to mythological stories, immortals and demons should be opposites, right? But why are they built on both sides of such a lake at the same time? It stands to reason that if a country believes in immortals, it is unlikely that a 'demon' will be erected next to an 'immortal', let alone such a huge stone statue of similar power. ”
As the words fell, he looked up at the two huge stone statues, and for some reason, there was a faint uneasiness in his heart, and he always felt that this moment was the calm before the storm.
Zhou Ru nodded and said, "What Liu Feng said is right, I also thought about this question just now. Excluding these two stone statues, the strangest thing is the lake. The lake is tightly divided into two camps, the east and west halves are exactly the same size, and they do not encroach on each other. ”
Li Fei said: "Maybe there is something in the middle to isolate the lake." ”
Liu Feng shook his head and said: "It's not like that, I've seen it before, and the places where they connect are closely connected." It is as if the substance that changes the color of the lake is controlled by a mysterious method, or rather, ...... Hold each other back?"
"Containment, non-aggression?"
"It's a feeling...... Is it balance?"
"Yes, it's balance!" Liu Feng's eyes lit up, and that feeling seemed to be like this. A flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and it was clear that I should get joy from figuring out the problem, but for some reason, my heart became heavier and heavier, could it be that something strange was going to happen?
Zhou Ru pondered: "It's a pity that I didn't expect to encounter such a thing before, only wait for the equipment brought by the support personnel, and maybe you can find the reason by going into the lake to probe when the time comes." ”
Liu Feng was silent, quietly looking at the two huge stone statues in front of him, and there was an urge to escape from this place in his heart.
Waiting is boring, especially in desert areas, and it's definitely an ordeal.
The crowd had entered the desert at noon yesterday, and it was eight o'clock in the morning when they arrived, and it was already close to noon.
Li Fei wiped a handful of sweat and said dissatisfiedly: "These people are really fucking grinding, they all told them that they have made a major discovery, but they haven't arrived yet!"
Zhao Lin said with a smile: "I have to bring some big equipment this time, so it will naturally be much slower." It would be nice to arrive in the evening. ”
Liu Feng temporarily let go of the uneasiness in his heart and joked: "It's just like coming here to sunbathe, it's healthier to sunbathe." ”
Lu Li also said: "Yes, only the sun on the desert will be so 'warm'......"
Who knows, before the words fell, a black shadow slowly appeared on the edge of the scorching sun. Then, slowly eroding the entire round of scorching sun, the heavens and the earth suddenly darkened.
"Strange, how can there be a solar eclipse today?"
Zhou Ruhuo stood up suddenly, his brows furrowed. Before leaving, everyone was well prepared, although the solar eclipse was not a big deal, but it also made the experienced Zhou Ru uneasy.
Li Fei scolded and scolded: "His grandmother's, it's really all kinds of!"
All around, a storm was slowly brewing, and the sky was getting darker and darker. Generally speaking, the entire process of a solar eclipse can last up to about two hours, and only the process of a total solar eclipse is short-lived. However, before Li Fei's words fell, the sky and the earth instantly darkened.
It turned out to be a total solar eclipse directly.
There is not a glimmer of light around!
"Ahh
Zhao Lin and Lu Li both screamed.
"Don't panic!" Liu Feng hurriedly reminded, and at the same time took out the fluorescent lamp from his backpack, and everyone calmed down.
"Look at that!"
Li Fei's voice was full of shock, more fear.
The originally calm lake was boiling at this time, and the two stone statues on the east and west sides exuded a strong light, and the stone statues of the 'immortals' emitted a monstrous light, reflecting a strange and dazzling light all around.
The light emitted by the stone statue of the 'Demon' is as dark green as the lake in front of it! Although the light is not as good as that of the stone statue of the 'Immortal', it seems to be not less powerful. At the same time, the inscription engraved on the back of the two seems to come to life!
Two large, obscure breaths quietly revived from the stone statue!
Boom Boom!
Bursts of deafening thunder rang out from the dark sky, and thunder and lightning thousands of feet long shuttled through the air. Suddenly, a pillar of light, darker than night, set from the center of the sun, which was completely black directly above!
It landed in the lake below, behind which a jet of black light poured into it. A vast, incomparably powerful wave swept across the entire Taklamakan Desert in an instant! At this moment, it seemed that the entire desert had become a part of the lake.
Liu Feng and the others were completely shocked by the magnificent side in front of them, and they were speechless, and they trembled and couldn't help themselves! The timid Zhao Lin and Lu Li had already fallen to the ground in fright.
Until this moment, the two stone statues suddenly burst out with a shocking momentum, like a rainbow, destroying the heavens and the earth! At that moment, the earth was trembling, and the sky was fissioning!
In the dark and dull air, a crack across the stars was instantly cracked by the impact of these two momentums. At that moment, it seemed that heaven and earth were going to collapse, and everything was going to fall back into samsara.
Suddenly, Liu Feng subconsciously looked down at his feet, and was shocked again! There was no desert under his feet, but a dim starry sky, and the stars were twinkling, emitting faint light.
