"Ah? A sacred object of the ancestors!"
Hearing what the Mayan merchant said, Puap's face lit up and his heart beat faster. The old militiaman blinked, his face unchanged.
"Well, this guy who can't pour oil won't be following me all the time, right? It's really troublesome..."
Looking at the carefree old militiaman, Ti Carlo's eyelids twitched, but he still had a smile on his face. In a seductive tone, he told the legends hidden in history.
"One hundred and thirty miles southwest from here is the ruins of the first ancient city in the jungle! The first ancient city was established more than 3,000 years ago and was the first powerful Jiaoren city-state! To this day, there are still myths about it Inheritance. That was the place where the gods who came out of the jungle stopped for the first time in the first era. It is located on the fertile soil beside the fertile river, with a vast area and no city walls. Among the ruins of the ancient city, there are dozens The magnificent stone sculptures of gods, the tallest of which are five or six people tall, gather the divinity passed down for thousands of years!..."
The ruins of the first ancient city, San Lorenzo Tenochtitlan Saeno in today's state of Veracruz, Mexico, are the oldest known Olmec city-states and the first flame of civilization in Mesoamerica.
"In the first ancient city, the ancient artifacts produced are small human-shaped sculptures of various stones! And the real artifacts can give your descendants the talent of sculpting characters. Think about it, if you can get a warrior If you get the statue of a priest, your son will become a powerful warrior! And if you get the priest's statue, he will inherit the priest's wisdom..."
"God gives talents to future generations, powerful warriors, and wise priests?"
Upon hearing this, Puap's eyes lit up instantly and he swallowed hard. Tikalo smiled and looked at the old militiaman. The old militiaman held his hair and looked at him calmly, without any sign of being moved. After all, his body knew that it was probably impossible to have another offspring.
"...This difficult old guy..."
Ti Carlo pursed his lips and described seductively again.
"A hundred miles east from here is the second ancient city on the coast! No one knows the name of the ancient city, but it is recorded on the inheritance chart of the feathered serpent priest that it is a sacred place for ancient rituals. In the sacred place , with an ancient pyramid more than 30 meters high, an equally huge human head, and more than a dozen stone altars! The gods of the second era once held rituals of the gods there, leaving behind many powerful gods. sex..."
The second ancient city is the ancient ruins of Tabasco, the city-state La Venta, which has a history of more than 2,000 years. In the later Ming Dynasty, it was a city-state focused on religion, able to provide faith bonuses and giant god avatars...
"The sacred objects produced in the second ancient city are strange black and red stone mirrors, sacred cinnabar divine bones, and exquisite jade ornaments! According to legend, stone mirrors can illuminate your destiny and change your future. Divine bones can be given to you The power comes from the original owner. And the jade jewelry...well, that one is very ancient and very spiritual!"
Tikallo's words were very seductive. Puap looked at the market, quietly holding the gem in his pocket, already impatient. The old militiaman frowned, thought for a while, and asked aloud.
"Ti Carlo, the cinnabar divine bone you are talking about couldn't be... dug out of someone else's tomb, right? If that were the case, it would really be... the wicked ones are smoking, and you can't even see it!"
"Well..."
Hearing this, Ti Carlo opened his mouth and was speechless for a long time.
Cinnabar is a specialty of this area. It is said that the red cinnabar has divine properties. It was buried in the tombs of the divine nobles and covered the bones for a long time, so the bones were soaked in red. The black and red mirrors and exquisite jade ornaments are all burial objects of the divine nobles. To put it simply, the Second Ancient City has very good Feng Shui and is very divine. It has buried many nobles over the past two thousand years. Then, their burial objects were dug up, including their red bones, and sold as sacred objects.
Doing this kind of business without capital, the profits are naturally very high. The Mayan merchants have bought and sold a lot, and the virtue must be lacking, but the people are not smoking yet.
"Well, the bones of the descendants of gods will have divinity to some extent. The Lord God witnesses! If they are dug out, they will also benefit future generations..."
Tikalo hesitated for a few words, then changed the subject and continued.
"Three hundred miles northwest from here is the ruins in the mountains, the third ancient city. It was probably established at the end of the Second Era, almost two thousand years ago. In that ancient city, there were sages from many tribes, and records The history and legends of two eras. In the center of the abandoned ancient city, there is an ancient monument. On one side of the monument, there is a divine jaguar, sitting on a throne, holding a ruler. On the other side of the monument, there is... ..”
Speaking of this, Mayan businessman Tikalo paused for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking. Dark Snake was attentive and listened carefully for a long time. After waiting for a while, he finally couldn't help it and asked.
"What is the other side of the sacred monument?"
"It is an ancient long-term chronology. Just like the stone tablets of the Mayan city-state, it records many years and is also marked with special symbols, implying important events that have happened. And the earliest starting point of that stone tablet is 7.16 .3.2.13.”
When he mentioned the long-chronological stone tablet, the Mayan merchant's expression darkened and he felt sad.
In the former Mayapan, there was also a similarly long-chronological stone monument. The earliest Olmecs were actually the "mothers" of the Mayans. The most splendid part of their culture was inherited by Teotihuacan on the northern plateau and the Mayan city-states in the central basin. Among them, the former conquered all directions and became more brave, while the latter developed highly abstract characters.
Countless long-standing stone tablets have been
The Mayan tribes established in the Golden Age record a full thousand years of glory! Until 800 years ago, a terrible divine disaster struck, the city of Tikal was suddenly destroyed, the central basin was suddenly desolate, the golden age of the Classical Maya suddenly ended, and the long-chronological stone monuments were interrupted...and all of this was due to the migration to the north and south. The Mayan nobles are forever hurt in their hearts!
"Huh...it's all over. The ancestors couldn't tell, and no one can figure out what happened eight hundred years ago?...And what are the terrible divine disasters? Is it really just a continuous alternation? Drought and flood?”
The Mayan merchant thought for a moment, shook his head secretly, and did not believe it. He thought that in the third ancient city, there might be prophecies and revelations about divine disasters hidden there, but he didn't find them.
The third ancient city is located in today's Tres Zapotes. Next to the ruins is Río Papaoapan, also known as the "Butterfly River". There are always rivers near large city-states to provide necessary water sources for agricultural production.
"Huh? 7.16.3.2.13...What does this recorded ancient number mean? Is it a sign of evil coming?"
The main priest Tomat listened for a long time and then spoke for the first time. He held a sutra in one hand and a copper ax in the other, his eyes flashing, always ready to fight for the Lord God.
In the kingdom epic of the priesthood, the Olmecs are the origin of all tribes in the world and the mother of the Mexica! The Mayans are the brothers of the Mexican people who have been separated for thousands of years. Although, the Mayans didn't think so. But it doesn't matter, they just stayed in the rainforest for too long and temporarily lost their memory. The alliance will help them find the truth of history and finally reunite the brothers...
"...It was 36 BC before 1526! In that year, a god-king came from the sky, with the bravery of a jaguar and the wisdom to measure the earth. She sat on the throne, guiding all people, He built the third ancient city with his own hands... This is also the image on the front of the monument."
Mayan merchant Tikallo looked to the west, with longing in his eyes. The ruins of the third ancient city are too far away and not close to the sea. He had only heard about it from others and had never been there himself.
"Not far to the east of the third ancient city, there is an active volcano, Veronia Volcano. Volcanic rock and obsidian are produced there. The sacred objects they handed down are also stone balls of volcanic rock and obsidian balls. Balls On top of the stone balls, there are carvings of the earth, mountains, rivers and gods... These sacred objects are said to have the divinity of the Mother Earth and can protect the people who carry them from harm to others!"
"A sphere of volcanic rock and obsidian? Divinity as a shield?"
Puap touched his chin. He felt that these things were produced by both the Alliance and the Kingdom, so there was nothing too surprising about them. But, no matter how ordinary things are, as long as they are said to have "divinity" and "mana"... their value cannot be compared to ordinary items.
"Two hundred miles west from here is the last ancient city, the fourth ancient city, the city of hills! There are a hundred ancient mounds around this ancient city!"
Tikalo quickly adjusted his mood. He smiled and told the story in a gentle and pleasant tone.
"There is no huge stone statue with a human head in this ancient city. According to legend, the gods have never been to that city. But, they exiled a hundred powerful gods there. Because of those bold gods , dare to resist the gods, resist their own father and mother gods... The exiled descendants of gods have mastered various divinities and established an extremely prosperous city-state. However, they are not gods, and they are very He soon died with divinity and was buried in a hundred mounds. The Mother Goddess of the Earth wept for her dead descendants, and a holy lake was formed among the hundred mounds..."
The location of the fourth ancient city, Laguna de os Cerros, is also the last Olmec ruins. After this, the era of the Olmecs came to an end.
"In the fourth ancient city, there are buried a hundred powerful descendants of gods, and there are a hundred divine artifacts!"
Tikalo looked at the people in front of him and shouted with a smile.
"One hundred pieces! One hundred pieces of pottery from the descendants of gods absorb their divinity and become strange divine objects! These pottery divine objects have a hundred different functions: they allow the elderly to reproduce, they allow priests to Predicting the future can allow ordinary people to become tough warriors, and also allow families to receive blessings from the gods and become more prosperous!..."
When he heard that he was blessed with a son, Chihuaco's face turned red and his thoughts finally moved.
"If I could have another son..."
At this moment, the three people around them, the main god priest Tomat, the apprentice Dark Snake on the ship, and the gray earth warrior Puap, all looked shaken and longing.
Seeing Chihuaco's changing expression, Tikalo secretly smiled, quite pleased with himself. After much thought, he finally found the old guy's weakness. Then, the Mayan merchant looked gentle, smiled and stretched out his hand, pointing to the market in Hidden Snake City.
"Blessed by the Lord God! Divine objects are precious and hidden in the market, waiting for the destined candidate. Let's spread out and find our own destiny!"
