Volume 1 Wind Clan Outcast Chapter 136 Astrological Inscriptions
"You know?" said the three in unison.
Little Sissel was puzzled: "Well, I know, as for such a big reaction?"
Bai Lianzhou said with an exaggerated expression: "Of course, this is not in your Geri Empire, this is the Violet Empire, how do you know so much about the underground structure of other countries?"
“...... Isn't it, do you want to make a tunnel?
"Poof, hahahaha, do you want to laugh at Lao Tzu. Little Sissel couldn't straighten up with a smile, "The Gerry Empire is in the south, running to the north of your country to dig tunnels, is there a hole in your brain?"
"Uh...... You, you get down to business. Bai Lianzhou muttered weakly.
Little Sissel managed to breathe a sigh of relief and explained, "We mercenaries have been dealing with endless deserts and underground caves since we were children, so we know a little bit about it. ”
"Most of us in the Sissel family make money by working as rangers, snitches and the like between the four countries, so naturally we have to travel around and loot the treasures of the past in this kind of ruin. They know more than the Geological Museum records. ”
Gwendlin sneered coldly: "Ha, to put it bluntly, he is a tomb robber!"
"Yes, but since my grandfather's generation, the direct descendants of the Sissel family have been in the business of bounty orders, specializing in assassination. ”
Little Sissel didn't know whether he was showing off or justifying his family's name, and his expression was a kind of trusting warmth: "After all, tomb robbers and treasure hunters are doing business on the graves of the dead, and they are all done by me, and I don't touch them." ”
"Well, you've heard a lot of stories about treasure hunts. Rin Night.
"Well, many explorers in my clan have the habit of keeping diaries, they will record maps and routes in detail, mark secret passages and secret rooms, and once they find anything valuable, they will often fight for the spoils. ”
Little Sissel beckoned to the three messengers and walked deeper into the corridor.
"The reason why I ask the specific location of this place is that I am not proficient in tomb robbers, and I am not very familiar with the topography of your place, so I can't distinguish between east and west, north and south, and second, because I am ...... The place where the war took place was a canyon, and there were huge spirit beasts infesting it. ”
"What do you mean?" asked Gwendlin.
"In the legends of our country, like the fairy tales you little girls read, the evil dragon will pile up gold and silver jewels into the cave, and there must be more room for treasure storage in the place where the spirit beast sleeps. ”
Gwendlin's face turned slightly red in the darkness, and he didn't think that this Jensen Sissel was quite knowledgeable.
"Before I faced Arx, I just had a rough idea of where Warlock's Canyon was. Before, I had seen Ling Yuanhe in the accompanying manual of a senior treasure hunter, the terrain here was complicated, the spirit beasts were fierce and abnormal, but the treasures were very rare, so few people would risk their lives to come here. ”
He looked left and right again, and continued, "The treasure hunter's description of this place is very strange, so I'm impressed. ”
Bai Lianzhou asked, "Then did he have any other valuable clues?"
"Of course, that's what I'm talking about. "Instead of slowing down, Sissel Jr. quickened a few points," according to his description, when we cross this long road, we will come to a huge space where there are inscriptions that he cannot read. ”
"Inscriptions, what inscriptions?" Rin Ya was interested when she heard this.
"I guess it's ancient texts, there are a lot of them, he can't read them, and he can't copy them all, so he gave up. Let's go over and see, maybe we can find something new. ”
The corridor was very narrow, and the three spirit envoys barely followed behind Sissel Jr. However, after a shot of land, they clearly felt that the walls around them had widened and brightened.
Just as a few of them relaxed their tense nerves slightly, between the lightning and flint, Gwendrin let out a miserable scream and fell on Rin Ye at once. "What's wrong?" said little Sissel back.
"I, I, I...... I just ...... It's like stepping on a dead man!" Gwendlin leaned on Rin Night's shoulder, not daring to look back at the place he had just walked by.
"If there are no dead people in any ancient tomb, don't be afraid if you look at a few more, good. Rin Ye said earnestly.
"Shut up this girl!"
With a wave of his hand, the fire suspended in the air grew larger, illuminating the entire corridor.
By the light of the fire, everyone looked at the place where they had just walked, and there was indeed a corpse lying there, but it was already highly decomposed, and the clothes on it were not clear which age it was.
"To search...... Do you want to search for the body?" Bai Lianzhou asked tremblingly.
"No, junior brother, you're too bold, we're not here to rob the tomb, what kind of corpse are you searching?" Rin Ye struggled to control her trembling body, "Girl, don't shake it." ”
"I'm not shaking, you're shaking. Gwendrin glared at him.
"I didn't shake either!"
......
Bai Lianzhou said unwillingly: "Just ...... Really don't search for it?"
"Search if you want, don't regret it. Little Sissel glanced at the corpse and sighed helplessly.
Bai Lianzhou squatted down and stared at the corpse carefully.
At this moment, he understood what little Sissel meant by "don't regret it".
I could vaguely see that it was a male corpse, the soft tissues of the whole body had all been decomposed, the hair and nails had completely fallen off, and the bones of the corpse were exposed, presumably he had been dead for more than a few months.
There were still some dark blue spiders alive under the body, and they scattered and fled under the boy's touch just now.
The pockets of the deceased's upper clothes were bulging, and Bai Lianzhou flipped through them, took them out, and when they took them out, it turned out to be a palm-sized diary.
He pinched the crumpled and slightly yellowed cover soaked in corpse fluid with two fingers, and scolded, "Damn, it's disgusting." ”
"It's all over, let's look at it as we go. Little Sissel urged.
Bai Lianzhou endured the discomfort and carefully opened the diary. In the faint light, he carefully studied the words on it.
"What the hell is written......" he muttered, unable to see the way for a while, so he put the notebook in his pocket, intending to study it later.
At this time, I only heard Little Sissel say in front: "It should have arrived." ”
......
The night invokes the spirit, and dozens of stars illuminate the arched area. Everyone looked around, only to see that the wall was densely covered with small gilded characters, reflecting golden light under the light of the stars.
However, these handwriting are not the words of their time at all, and Bai Lianzhou and Gwendrin have never seen it, let alone understand it or two.
"Presumably that's what the hunter said, the inscription. Little Sissel looked around and didn't have any clue, "Since it is under the ground of your Violet Empire, it should be the ancient text of the water element, Emperor Star Master, can you understand it?"
Rin Ya moved cautiously step by step, pointing with her fingers and muttering something in her mouth.
The other three people stopped their movements and waited for his answer.
Bai Lianzhou sat down against the wall, opened the notebook, and carefully compared the words on the wall word by word. However, with his level of education, he can still understand three words and two words, and the amount of reading on this wall is almost more than a dictionary, and if he translates at this speed, it is estimated that he will live here for ten days and half a month.
By then, he will definitely know the secrets of this underground cavern, and of course, he will be the same as the owner of the notebook.
After a long time, Rin Ye said, "I probably understand." "So much do you understand?" Gwendlin was stunned.
Rin Ye said triumphantly, "Uh...... Not really, after all, I am not a student of paleographies, and if I were asked to translate them word for word, I wouldn't be able to do it.
"But coincidentally, you night brother and I were fortunate enough to read a book about astrological inscriptions, and I thought that I would never come into contact with it a second time in my life, but I didn't expect it to come in handy under this underground. ”
Little Sissel was surprised: "This is the inscription of your astrologers?"
"Exactly. It was originally a tribe, or should it be called...... Race, the age is very old, and the person who wrote these words should be a spiritual magician before the awakening of the four elements, and a former aboriginal of the mainland. ”
Rin Ye paced slowly, slowly translating word by word: "What is written above is roughly about four things......"
The first thing is about this group of aborigines of the Phantom Capital Continent, who have very amazing achievements in agriculture, culture, and art.
Three of them were different in that they were so amazed at the wonderful power they possessed that they named them "Spiritual Power." Through long-term observation of celestial phenomena, these earliest spiritualists profoundly grasped the movements of the rising sun, the bright moon and the stars, and invented the most primitive astrology on the continent - that is, the predecessor of the astrological knowledge of the Rin Ye and Bai Lianzhou clans.
However, their level of science and technology is not high, they are in the Stone Age, and they are far from the current Phantom Capital Continent.
After Rin Ye finished speaking seriously, several people looked at each other and were silent.
"Is there really a person without attributes...... Senior brother, it was written in the book left by the master last time that a spiritual magician without any elemental power ......" Bai Lianzhou's tone was excited.
Rin Ye motioned to him not to rush and continued to listen to him.
The second thing is about creation.
While the aborigines were living a self-sufficient and peaceful life, a god suddenly appeared in the sky. The spiritual power of the gods was obviously several times higher than theirs, and the world began to change.
The continent began to divide into three elements, water, wind, and earth, and new and stronger psicists were constantly born, so they began to attack the natives and seize territory......
Gradually, these attributeless beings were banished into the caves of the mountains. The first empires began to form on the originally rich and fertile land.
Violet, Virginia and Euroti.
......
"This third thing...... Rin was late for a long time, and read back and forth several times, but he didn't know how to speak.
Gwendlin hurriedly said: "Don't sell it, what's the third thing?"
"This ...... I don't know what to say, because the content of this text is not recorded in our history at all. ”
Rin Ye coughed twice and said, "There are some trivial proper nouns that I can't translate, but ......"
Bai Lianzhou comforted: "You better say it, there are no outsiders here, and there is no culture, it is really a very serious matter, let's just tell the master and the master after we go out." ”
"That's for sure. Rin Ye had no choice but to agree, and read word by word:
"The third thing mentioned on the wall is that this group of attributeless aborigines knew that their spiritual power could not compete with the new forces of the world, so the three elders of the clan with spiritual power used all their life's energy to create three super weapons for future generations to defend against foreign enemies. After their deaths, these weapons were hidden underground in each of the three countries, guarded by the descendants of the non-attributed. ”
Rin Ye looked back at it again and said firmly, "That's right. However, the names of these three weapons are so strange that I can't translate them......"
"Is it 'Demon Slayer', 'Demon Encounter', and 'Sharp Arrow'?" Bai Lianzhou asked.
On the spot, the three of them were completely stunned.
