The Qinling Mountains are the closest to the Sichuan-Sichuan Basin and are also the highest mountain group near the basin. The south side was probably located below the surface of the Earth's Sea tens of thousands of years ago. When the giant clams moved, they continued to dig holes in the mountains and drilled deeper into the ground, forming their The four hundred miles of caves I saw.
This process does not happen overnight, but takes thousands of years to complete!
According to climate data, the climate has been getting colder for thousands of years, and at the same time, the groundwater level has dropped. Once the giant clams feel that the environment is not suitable for survival, they will continue to dig holes downwards and enter deeper underground water systems. The same is true for thousands of years. Over the years, burrows have continued to They are connected into pieces to form a huge nest as huge as the roots of an ant nest.
It can be said that climate changes have never stopped for thousands of years. The giant clams retreated again and again, and finally retreated to the huge underground nests we see today.
At this time, the giant clams relied on groundwater to survive. However, the living environment was no longer comparable to that of their ancestors, who lived in the boundless sea of land. They could only survive in such compact and small underground nests. Even so, the food supply was Scarcity and climate changes have also made it more difficult for the population to reproduce, and even the body size has become smaller and smaller.
If nothing else, these giant clams are probably the last giant clams in the world today. They should have been extinct in prehistory. It was man-made accidents that saved them and allowed these clams to live for thousands more years.
The ones who saved them were the remnants of the Witch God Kingdom who were driven into the southwest!
At this time, a group of shamans were desperation and were expelled to the southwest. To avoid the pursuit of orthodox civilization, they hid in eight hundred miles of underground caves and lived in underground nests like ant nests.
As the witches explored, they also discovered that there was another owner in this lair, but they had retreated to a deeper place due to changes in the environment. The witches had the means to deal with animals. Maybe they found the body of a giant clam, or maybe it was Heard the cry from deep in the cave.
These witches followed the traces to the Ghost Gate, and found giant clams in the underground grotto behind the Ghost Gate. Whenever the tide rose, the giant clams would surface, breathe air and hunt for food. Once the tide fell, they would It sank into the cave and was never seen again.
The abyss that can be emptied by rising tides represents the underworld in the eyes of the shamans. Therefore, the huge earth clams may be the gods in the sea of earth in the concept of ancient ancestors.
The giant clam came from the darkness into the darkness. In the eyes of the shamans, it was probably the underground Hades. They planted huge locust trees here. At the same time, they also built the Temple of the Goddess of Mercy on the tiankeng to show the power of the earth clam. Worship the spirit of the moon to worship the god Chiyou in the temple.
In exchange, the shamans would offer human flesh and blood to these clams, so that they would be exempted from hunting and foraging, and would only exist as the gods of the shamans.
For thousands of years, shamans have relied on the hunting characteristics of giant clams to develop corpse gu to maintain the dominance of the group. At the same time, they also opened Pandora's box - the originally suppressed bloodthirsty nature of giant clams was stimulated by them. , until the shamans could no longer control them, these clams began to eat living people.
After the witch people found the other remnants of the Witch God Kingdom, they had no choice but to abandon this place in order to join the two tribes and bring the tribe to join the remnants.
Over time, this clam nest was abandoned. It was not until Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng were ordered to build the Soul Palace that they discovered this place in the Qinling Ancestral Lineage.
For Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, this Ten Thousand Eyes Cave is naturally a deterrent. If there is no one to guide the way, it is easy to get lost in it. Unless you are an expert, you will not be able to reach the depths of the clam nest. This guarantees to a certain extent The security of the Soul Palace, with just a few modifications, can make Cave Mountain a Soul Cave that is inaccessible to strangers.
At the same time, they can also make use of the prehistoric relics here, and even use the legend of the ghost gate and secluded capital of the shamans to completely cover up the existence of the Soul Palace.
Under double insurance, the crypt becomes a strange and strange cave. Few people dare to set foot here without authorization. The fewer people there, the safer the Soul Palace will be. This is the original intention of Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng!
Essentially, everything in the Ten Thousand Eyes Cave is the result of tens of thousands of years of geological movement. The shamans and Li Tang people are just transformers of the environment, using the ancients' taboos against ghosts and gods to achieve their own goals.
These extremely ferocious things were intentional. At the same time, this deliberately created phenomenon continued to deify the Kushan Soul Palace, which created the legendary myth of the Soul Palace!
Among them, the most injured ones are the clams. After they were imprisoned by the Li Tang people, it was difficult for them to come out of the giant nest. They could only continue to shrink back into the giant nest, waiting like animals to be fed by the giant tower.
Song Siyuan's speculation provided a more detailed explanation for the strange things in the Soul Palace. This may actually be the case. They only felt that everything was twists and turns and the nature was miraculous.
"If it's a cemetery, is there a crack in this giant nest? Can't they escape?"
Let the peacock look at the huge crack, which is wider than the thousand-year-old clams tied with iron ropes. They may not be able to escape.
"I think the reason why the thousand-year-old giant clams don't escape is because this is a geomantic treasure land!"
