Chapter 217 Dragon King Presents
"Look, that iron box doesn't contain the treasures in this tomb, right?" The fat man said with bright eyes. He had been itching for a long time and raised his thumbs at Uncle Ming repeatedly: "Ming
Uncle, you can always do it. You can crack such a difficult formation. It is like a sword that is not old yet. You can still fight for 300 rounds by marrying a foreign girl!"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's just a coincidence." Uncle Ming smiled modestly, but his eyes could not hide his excitement.
After waiting for almost ten minutes, and seeing no other movement among the rocks, Grandpa nodded to us, indicating that everything was safe and that everyone could pass.
We now set foot on this smooth path that was created out of thin air.
The entire path is paved with dark cobblestones, each of which is about the size of a fist and has a smooth surface. Under the illumination of a flashlight, it emits as bright a light as a black pearl.
Bathed in such light, we seem to be collectively plunged into a sea of black.
However, because there is a machine formation covered with huge rocks next to it, we did not dare to spend too much time admiring the beautiful scenery here. Instead, we carried our backpacks one by one and hurried forward.
About halfway down the road, I suddenly found that there was no uneven feeling like pebbles under my feet. Instead, it was extremely smooth. It felt like I was skating on an ice rink when I walked. I strangely turned on the flashlight and shined it at my feet.
I don’t know if I don’t take a photo, but when I took a photo, I discovered that I don’t know when the densely packed cobblestones had disappeared, replaced by colorful stone slabs that looked like ancient murals.
Grandpa and the others seemed to have discovered this, and they stopped one after another and shined their flashlights downwards.
"Grandpa, why are there murals in this place?" I asked.
"I don't know, but what appears here is definitely not an ordinary mural. It may record the core secret of this tomb!"
After Grandpa finished speaking, he asked us to focus all the light sources on the stone slabs so that we can see the full picture of these stone slabs.
I found that there were four colorful stone slabs here, all like gems inlaid in a ring, one by one inlaid in the dark pebbles.
Each stone slab contains a large amount of text and accompanying pictures, both in terms of fonts and painting style, they are exactly the same as the murals we saw on the stone walls of Chencang Road!
I suddenly had a strange idea, that is, the murals of Chen Cangdao were not finished at the beginning, and the murals here are the follow-up of Chen Cangdao's murals.
This thought made my heart beat faster.
Sure enough, after seeing the first mural, Zhang Sanpao cleared his throat and said: "Do you still remember the murals in Chencang Road? Dayu led the ancestors of the ancient tribe to dig the Yellow River and dredge the floods, but there was a lot of noise.
Awakened a giant snake entrenched on the edge of the Yellow River. Finally, Dayu even stole an iron box guarded by the giant snake. This aroused the anger of the giant snake, set off endless huge waves, and released tens of thousands of black
Mamba snakes, attack all humans..."
"At that time, I always had a question, why did I stop painting after Dayu stole the iron box and sent it to the dark palace? This is very inconsistent with the habits of the ancients! The ancients would want to complete it
For example, when Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty inspected his tomb, he found that one of the unicorn carvings in the tomb was missing a horn. He immediately became furious, beheaded all the craftsmen, and ordered the entire tomb to be pulled down and redone! This way
Although the method is almost cruel, it also reflects the attitude of the ancients towards their own tombs, so why didn't Dayu take an unusual path?"
"Because Dayu likes to wear Metersbonwe, so he doesn't take the ordinary route..." Fatty, the idiot, said suddenly.
I was so angry that I kicked his ass on the spot. What kind of critical moment was this, and you were still making such a joke that had no bounds?
Zhang Sanpao ignored the fat man and said excitedly: "Now I finally understand that there are no fewer murals on Chen Cangdao, but the lower part is painted here. As long as we understand these murals, we can
I now know the truth about everything back then.”
After saying that, he couldn't help but touch the mural at his feet, wanting to pounce on it like a hungry wolf.
Grandpa and Uncle Ming also started watching.
The first mural depicts a middle-aged man, wearing ancient coarse linen clothes, sitting on a high hillside, looking at the churning water of the Yellow River at the foot of the hillside, with a sad face.
And in the water of the Yellow River, there is a huge black shadow.
"Although Dayu lived and ate at the construction site, and even refused to enter his home three times, he still could not solve the flood of the Yellow River. Because as long as he built a dam, it would be knocked down by the Dragon King, and as long as he dug a river, it would be lifted up by the Dragon King.
The huge waves drowned countless people." Zhang Sanpao looked at the text on the mural with twinkling eyes and gave us a simple translation.
Next is the second mural. The middle-aged man returned to the country and began to smelt copper water day and night. At the same time, he mobilized more than 100,000 people to smelt with him, and finally cast an extremely thick copper rod that penetrated into the sky.
Bronze pillars.
"Dayu was inspired by the Hetu Luoshu. He believed that in order to control the floods, he must first suppress the Dragon King, so he devoted all his efforts to create the Dinghai Needle!" Zhang Sanpao continued.
In the third mural, the bronze pillar has been transported to the Yellow River. The middle-aged man asked the ancestors to use iron chains as thick as their arms to weave huge nets to catch the huge black figure in the Yellow River.
Then the bronze pillar was inserted straight into the bottom of the river, firmly imprisoning the black figure.
"Dayu finally suppressed the Dragon King and calmed the raging Yellow River, but he couldn't be happy because he discovered the secret in the iron box. This secret was really terrible, but also so exciting!
So he decided to seal the iron box permanently so that he could keep the secret to himself." Zhang Sanpao took a deep breath and said.
And we all held our breath, even the fat man stopped talking.
Because all fools know that the truth lies in the fourth mural!
By the time of the fourth mural, there were only a few words, but the picture suddenly changed.
Because this is the structural diagram of the entire tomb!
At the bottom of the dark and deep Yellow River, a huge bronze pillar can be seen as far as the eye can see.
Dayu led a group of giant soldiers with extremely large heads and tens of thousands of ancestors to find this underground space, and then dug out criss-crossing tomb passages along the bronze pillars.
This tomb passage is like peeling a pineapple, spiraling downward along the bronze pillars. It is a wonder of the world.
I really feel that even if the Great Wall, the Egyptian Pyramids, and the Sphinx were added together, there wouldn't be enough to carry its shoes...
Finally, Dayu placed the iron box at the bottom of the bronze pillar. The huge black shadow that was pressed under the bronze pillar emerged and roared angrily at Dayu.
This black shadow is exactly the black mamba snake we saw on Chencang Road! It’s just that this snake’s body has transcended the scope of nature. Its head is as big as a Jiefang truck and its body is terrifyingly thick. Dayu is in it
The one in front of me is as small as an ant.
What's even more terrifying is that the head of this black mamba snake is bulging high, as if two horns are coming out. The snake also has four fierce claws, and the black scales on its body are even more shiny.
A pair of big red lantern-like eyes can make people feel cold and goosebumps.
