While we were talking, Xiong Ming, me, and the little girl flew over the broken wall.
Behind the broken wall is the largest building in the ancient city. I couldn't see it clearly from a distance, but now when I got to it, I realized that it was actually a three-story hall. It looked a bit like It's a palace, but it doesn't look much like it. Judging from the reliefs on the outer wall of the hall, it looks more like some kind of sacrificial place.
Speaking of reliefs, there are them everywhere outside the main hall. This kind of carving technology looks very old. Some of them have fallen off. They are probably not too old.
As for the content on the relief, there is nothing strange about it, and it is roughly divided into eight parts.
The first part is on the south side. The relief is nothing more than a ruler who brought his people to make a deal with God in order to obtain eternal life. He used the youngest girl as a sacrifice in exchange for what he wanted. result.
The second part is in the southwest. The relief depicts a young girl being placed in the deepest underground river. Countless giant reptiles emerge from the ground, lifting the girl up and walking deeper. See It seemed that the so-called god agreed to their deal.
The third part is due west. The above content is relatively simple. It shows two people looking at each other. One is a monarch wearing a crown, and the other is a tall god with three heads and six arms, a red face and fangs. The king knelt on one knee, while the god looked down at him.
When I saw the shape of this so-called god, I couldn't help but take a breath and thought to myself: "Isn't this the one that I have always seen in Biluo Village or other places? It turns out that it is It’s a certain god in this place! But who is this guy’s origin?”
Thinking of this, I turned around and looked at Xiong Ming, and found that the boy and the girl were concentrating on scanning around for any insects that were following them, and they didn't notice me at all.
I sighed, said nothing, and walked counterclockwise around the hall towards the northwest.
Soon I saw the fourth stone mural. This stone mural was damaged for some reason. A large part of the paintings on the stone wall could not be seen clearly. Only an hourglass-like thing could be seen clearly, and that thing It happened to be exactly the same as the one I brought back from the underground tomb in Biluo Village.
I looked at the damaged stone wall in front of me and touched it with my hands. I found that some gravel fell off when I touched it. Not only that, what surprised me was the fracture surface, or cross section, of the damaged area. , turned out to be new.
In other words, this stone sculpture was destroyed not long ago.
I looked at the stone mural in front of me and couldn't help but wonder: "What is going on? Is it because someone doesn't want me to see what's on it? Or do they not want anyone else to see what's on it? But what if They didn’t want people to see what was on it, so why did they leave that hourglass-like thing again? Is it because they didn’t have enough time? Or did something else suddenly happen?”
Countless questions popped into my mind almost instantly, and the mystery that originally seemed to be gradually revealed was now tied into countless knots.
I frowned and pondered for a while, trying to find even the smallest clue among the chaotic clues, but there was no clue at all.
So, I decided to look behind and see if all the murals were destroyed.
Thinking of this, I took a step and ran towards the north. Fortunately, the stone murals on the north side were well preserved. Although they were slightly damaged, judging from the degree of weathering, they were probably not man-made.
On the mural directly to the north, there is a sculpture of a man lying flat on a bed. Judging from the shape, this man should be the previous king.
The strange thing is that there is still a person standing in front of his bed at this time. In terms of appearance, height and weight, this person is exactly the same as the king lying on the bed, except that there is an extra one beside him. Something like a whirlpool.
I didn't know why, so I hurriedly walked northeast to read the sixth part.
The sixth part of the stone mural is the most well-preserved among these parts. It is very bloody and depicts a scene of massacre. Dozens of strangely dressed people had their throats cut and sacrificed at the top of the pile of corpses. , blood donations soon formed a river. The river of blood did not flow downward, but tightly surrounded a coffin.
I was shocked by the bloody scene and hurriedly went around to the seventh stone mural.
The seventh stone mural is on the east side. As soon as I arrived, I saw Xiong Ming staring directly at the content above.
Seeing me coming, Xiong Ming pointed to the stone mural with a shocked expression, and then said to me: "Hu Tian, look... do you think the two people there look like the two of us?"
When I heard what Xiong Ming said, I couldn't help but be shocked. I hurriedly looked at the stone mural and saw four people and a coffin carved on the seventh stone mural.
There were two people in modern clothes, one tall and one short, one fat and one thin. Standing in front of the thin one was a person who looked exactly like the king.
Behind the king is a whirlpool-shaped sculpture. It seems that the king has passed through the whirlpool.
In addition, the coffin in the relief has been opened, and a girl is lying inside. She is very gorgeously dressed and holding a round clock-like object in her hand.
Seeing the girl in the coffin, Xiong Ming and I couldn't help but turn our heads to the little girl beside us.
Neither of us spoke. We just looked straight at the little girl. The little girl looked a little embarrassed. She swallowed and said, "What are you looking at me doing?"
Xiong Ming looked at the little girl and said, "Don't you think you should tell us what's going on here?"
The little girl heard that Xiong Ming's tone was a bit unkind, so she responded unceremoniously and said: "What do I need to say to you two? Don't forget, I just saved you two! You can use this now What tone should you use to speak to your savior?"
When Xiong Ming heard what the little girl said, he suddenly got angry and shouted: "Hey! You little girl! Who are you talking to?"
The little girl didn't give in. She took a step ahead and said, "Follow you! What's wrong?"
When I saw this, I pushed Xiong Ming and said, "You're almost done! Don't be useless at this moment! If you have the ability, go fight those bugs!"
When the little girl heard what I said, she immediately echoed: "Yes! I didn't see you having much energy when I was fighting bugs, so now you come out to test your abilities!"
After saying that, the little girl rolled her eyes at Xiong Ming, then walked directly around Xiong Ming and me to the last relief mural.
Xiong Ming was furious after hearing what the little girl said. He ran over and wanted to say something. But when he saw clearly the content of the mural in front of him, he didn't say a word and choked on one sentence. in the throat.
