Chapter 741: Ancient Artifacts
A very old passage, the stone road on both sides has no signs of artificial excavation, you can vaguely see some smooth stone walls, carved with many ancient pictures, but the age is too old to be recognizable.
The stone passage curves and stretches endlessly, and the strange thing is that there is no light source around, but you can clearly see the face and the walls.
There seemed to be some kind of unexplained phenomenon here, and he couldn't see anything with the naked eye, so he decided to try something else, and a white light flashed in front of him, and the surroundings suddenly became very different.
At this moment, in front of Lou Yi's eyes is a world shining with a faint white light, and the white filaments of light are constantly moving around, they are like souls that are unwilling to leave this place, always lingering here.
And Lou Yi also discovered more secrets, such as the murals on the stone walls on both sides, they also shine white at the moment, the first one seems to be a group of primitive tribesmen, the group is a tent woven of animal skins, a man who looks very strong, holding a baby in his hand.
The baby's surroundings were depicted with a halo like the sun, and the surrounding crowd seemed to be worshipping him, but Lou Yi found that the baby's forehead had two tiny protrusions, which looked like the young horns of a dragon.
The second pattern shows that the child has grown up a lot, the tribe has been poisoned by the war, the tribe has been displaced, there is a black shadow over the land, and the rest of the tribe is escorting him away, passing a river on the way, a big bird comes from the sky and escapes from the pursuers.
Walking all the way, it seems to narrate the life of this child, slowly the child in the mural grows up, looks extremely strong, the two protrusions on his forehead are also higher, he looks very wise, looking at the water in the river in a daze, an old cow lying beside him, chewing hay in his mouth.
Lou Yi unconsciously walked a long distance, and pictures came into view, making him seem to witness this person's life.
The only thing they could do was to scatter the seeds indiscriminately on the earth and offer sacrifices of cattle, sheep and livestock to pray for good weather and rain, but even so, starvation still abounded to death, and the grass was plagued, resulting in the loss of crops.
Even birds and birds in ancient times would wait for opportunities to steal valuable agricultural seeds, and under such harsh living conditions, the population could not grow, which made him very miserable.
After that, the mural changed greatly, the sky seemed to be falling with fire and rain, like the end of the world, the whole tribe was burned, everything returned to the original point, and the lucky survivors in the mural hid their faces and wept.
At this time, the person in the mural, with two horns like a cow's head, picked up a burning branch in his hand, stared at it for a long time without moving, Lou Yi was curious, and kept following the mural, without noticing at all, he slowly entered the stone wall.
He had strayed from the truth, as if he had entered a space that should not have been, but he was so attracted by the story depicted on the mural that he didn't notice it at all.
After that, there were more and more buildings on the mural, and there were more and more people of this person, and the bonfires were connected into pieces, and people danced around the bonfires to celebrate, and Lou Yi's eyes always followed the person with the horns.
He found that the other party was holding a piece of animal bone in his hand at the moment, looking at it with intent, with a few wooden sticks beside him, and some hemp rope made of reeds.
At this time, the picture becomes an irregular field, and people hold a unique tool in their hands, a tool that resembles a fork, with a curved handle, and animal bones tied at the front end, which have grooves on them, and the front end is shaped like a canine.
Some people spread the weeds on the farmland and burned them, and then used this tool to plow the ground and sow the seeds in the ashes after the grass and trees were burned.
This is the method he used to learn the spiritual plant, Hao Bo handed it to him, saying that the world's farming skills come from Emperor Yan Shennong's family, Lou Yi thought about it at the moment, this picture seems to be slash and burn, and the tool they used to plow the land seems to be the Lei Yu invented by Emperor Yan.
At this moment, he had recovered from his state of concentration, only to find himself in a confined space, surrounded by a soft light, but there was no way out at all.
"Where am I ......?" said the puzzled self.
The murals are still there, and they are clearly visible to the naked eye, without the need to use the power of the Spirit Devouring Technique's vision, the surroundings are white, and the ground is as smooth as pebbles, and even Lou Yi can see his face clearly through them.
The surrounding murals are scattered in a circle, and they maintain the same movement, that is, they bow to the position directly in front of them, their hands prostrate forward, their cheeks close to the ground, their knees on the ground, and their insteps facing the sky, looking extremely reverent.
Lou Yi looked up and looked ahead, there is a huge stone wall in front of him, the whole body is white and dazzling, a stone statue is engraved on the stone wall, the joy of the fire on the top of his head, the eyes have a flashing light, he is wearing a colorful xia robe, there are auspicious clouds under his feet, his left hand holds a turquoise stick, which is engraved with strange seals, and his right hand holds a tripod-shaped object, exuding the light of jade.
There is a small beast on the neck, Lou Yi doesn't know what it is, the main thing is that its appearance is almost transparent, only a pair of eyes with a faint golden light, if it weren't for his sharp eyes, he really couldn't find it.
At the left foot of this statue stand several pots, strange and ugly, and at the right foot stands a wooden stick with something tied underneath, but it is covered by the spikes depicted in the mural.
The person depicted on this stone wall should be Emperor Yan, and the meaning of looking at the mural should be immeasurable merit and flying to the fairy world, but according to legend, the real history is that after he helped the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan defeat the Chiyou clan, he wanted to divide the world in two.
As a result, the Yan clan was defeated by the hands of the Yellow Emperor, and was forced to live in seclusion in Shennongjia to escape the world, while the Yellow Emperor dominated the world and opened up a prosperous dynasty.
It seems that this place should be set up by his descendants, or people who rely on his great achievements, Lou Yi bowed to the mural reverently, and bowed in parallel, anyway, legends are one thing, the truth is not important, the important thing is that they are the ancestors of the human race.
It is a matter of course to respect the ancestors, three kneels and nine bows to offer the highest respect to Emperor Yan, just the moment he got up after the salute, the mural suddenly lit up, and in an instant, Lou Yi seemed to see the mural come to life.
He was so shocked that he even forgot that he was still in a kneeling position, and the Yan Emperor on the mural swept his eyes towards him, as if nodding slightly at him, and then the light flashed, and an object flew out of the mural and landed beside Lou Yi.
Then the light of the mural dissipated, and everything returned to normal, which felt like a dream, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he had come to the end of the passage, and the mysterious space was gone, and he was holding a long pole in his hand.
Lou Yi looked down and saw that it was the wooden pole that was erected next to the right foot of the mural, but now its appearance has become different......
I don't know what kind of wood this wooden pole is made of, it is as hard as iron, but it has no weight, and the front end is fixed with hemp rope, but it is as strong as a dragon's tendon, and it does not move.
And it is fixed on the wooden pole is an unknown animal bone, the middle is concave, the two ends are pointed like antelope horns, but it is extremely sharp, touching the ground like a fire knife to cut tofu, effortlessly.
On the wooden pole, he touched two strange ancient characters, and it took him a long time to identify them, and they seemed to be engraved with the word "耒耜".
It is said that it is a farm tool invented by Emperor Yan to turn over the soil and plant, it should be a curved pole and a plow, this kind of straight up and down, but it is the first time to see it, it is not like a farm tool, more like a special spear.
Anyway, this thing is now in his hands, he thinks that maybe this is Emperor Yan inspired his piety and gave him a chat to express his heart, this is a great good thing, Lou Yi regarded it as a treasure and put it away properly.
There was no way ahead, but there was a wind blowing from the front, Lou Yi stepped forward, his body rushed straight through the stone wall, and suddenly opened up in front of him, and a new world appeared in front of him.
The sun is scorching above the sky, the sky is clear, you can't see half a cloud, the endless grassland, stretching to the horizon, and at the end of the grassland, there is a tree with a strange shape, located at the end of the grassland, and a person is sitting cross-legged under the tree at the moment.
"Brother Si Ming!!" Lou Yi shouted in surprise.
He rushed forward, but the moment he took the step, he instantly changed directions, and when he reappeared, the surroundings suddenly became extremely dangerous, and all kinds of poisons surrounded him, making his goosebumps stand up.
At this moment, the ancient artifact that he put away suddenly jumped out of the Void Ring, emitting a glowing light, and everything around it disappeared in an instant, and a special path appeared in front of him.
Lou Yi was originally frightened, and he hadn't recovered from the shock, he looked at the road that suddenly appeared in a daze, and he didn't even think of walking over quickly, until the thunder made a peculiar sound, he came back from the shock, and didn't think about rushing into the road quickly.
The journey was very smooth, without encountering the slightest danger, and he reached the end of the road so smoothly, and came to the strange tree, when his heart suddenly beat violently, and he felt a very strong call.
Just when he was subconsciously about to touch the ancient tree, a voice next to him suddenly said coldly, "Move again, take your life!"
Lou Yi then remembered that he had seen Duanmu Siming cross-legged under this tree before, and at this moment he remembered that he was wearing a mask, so he ripped off his mask and smiled at Duanmu Siming, "Brother Duanmu, it's me!"
The young man held a strip in his hand, and Lou Yi suddenly remembered that the thing that Emperor Yan was holding in his left hand on the mural was [Emperor Yan Artifact Shennong Ruler].
