After reading the contents of the mural, I couldn't help but sigh. There were legends about it everywhere. I didn't expect such a legend to be hidden in this desert.
Judging from the murals, that lake is undoubtedly Lop Nur, and the Stone Ball City we encountered was once by the lake.
However, this is quite different from the Lop Nur I know. Whether it's in ancient and modern literature or folklore, Lop Nur can't be this small. After all, before it dried up, Lop Nur was the second largest inland lake in China.
" I guess if the murals are close to historical facts, then the lake water in Lop Nur must have expanded on a large scale. Otherwise, it really doesn't make sense.
Of course, the contents of this mural were too mystical. I really couldn't convince myself to believe its authenticity.
"How exciting."
Hearing Yang Liu sigh, I was too engrossed just now. I didn't even notice when the three of them stood beside me.
Mozzie was hugging her arms and lost in thought. It seemed like I wasn't the only one who thought that the contents of this mural were fake.
I asked Mosquito," Mosquito, do you think this mural is reliable?”
" Ancient murals are usually used to record major events," Mosquito said." Of course, there are also many fictional mythical stories or religious beliefs. This mural gave me the feeling that it was illusory. Perhaps some disaster had indeed happened here, but it was colored with mythical colors. This was very common in ancient times. Moreover, I feel that there are many contradictions in this mural.”
"Oh? Tell me."
Yang Liu also urged from the side, saying,"Yes, yes, quickly tell me."”
Mozzie acted like a lecturer as she pointed at the beginning of the mural and said,""Look, at the beginning, there was no difference between this place and the outside world. There were all kinds of birds and beasts.”
Mozzie moved her finger to the three people and continued,""These three people came out from a cave. From their expressions, I can tell that they are very shocked to be here.”
Yang Liu interrupted Mozzie and asked,"Don't belong here?"”
"Yes, you see, this can be seen from the few times they came out of the cave in disappointment. Something must have happened in the cave. They were unable to leave and spent the rest of their lives in disappointment.”
I said,"There doesn't seem to be any contradiction.”
Yang Liu suddenly shouted at me," Damn Rat, can you be patient?”
I helplessly gestured for Mosquito to go ahead. Mosquito smiled and said,""This is where the conflict started. Haozi, look, after these three people died, another group of people completely different from them appeared. This group of people is different from them, at least in terms of appearance. The story of the murals only truly unfolded when this group of people appeared.”
"I understand now. You mean, from the content, these are stories from two completely different time periods. Moreover, the last batch of people continued until the destruction of this place. They were all witnesses. If the murals were painted by their descendants, then how did they know the story of the first three people?”
Mosquito nodded." Yes, I really can't figure it out. The only connection between the two groups is that hole. The first group came out from the hole, and the second group led to the disaster because someone entered the hole. Moreover, there was another point. If the first batch of people didn't leave anything behind, how did the second batch of people know that the hole couldn't be entered?”
I rubbed my forehead and said," Could it be that we're thinking too much? The content of this mural is limited. The author might have forgotten to record any connections between them. Or, as you said, these are all results that are infinitely magnified based on some small events at that time, just like, just like the primeval war in ancient times. It was originally a fight between a few villages, but they even brought in birds, beasts, and immortals. So, hey, wait, mosquito, do you still remember the mythical story that Li Juan once told?”
Mozzie was stunned. She took a step forward and carefully examined the figure on the mural.
Yang Liu was stunned by my words. What fairy tale? I told her that a comrade once said that during the Yanhuang period, the Yellow River basin in the Central Plains was originally very peaceful. Later on, a super awesome figure came from the north. It was the legendary Chiyou. Because of the appearance of Chiyou, the first war that changed the direction of Chinese civilization broke out. As for the legends related to the war, you should know that I won't waste my time.
After that, I followed Mozzie and carefully examined the person on the mural. I couldn't help but say,"The characters on this list, other than the three shamats at the beginning.”
"Shamate?"
Yang Liu looked at me in confusion. I said,"Sigh, look at how manly the people behind are. They are full of masculinity. Aren't those three people just weirdly dressed punk to them?”
Yang Liu looked at me helplessly and said,""Alright, you win. What are you going to say?”
"Where were we?" I asked.
"F * ck."
"Oh right, other than those three shamate, the people who came later were all tall and primitive tribes. Look, didn't two people leave after entering the cave? I guess one of them is Chi You. After he went to the Yellow River basin, he ruled over the Jiuli Race, which led to the Primordial War.”
"Are you so sure?" Yang Liu asked. What evidence do you have?"
"Evidence?"
Yes, it seemed that a mural and some legends could not explain anything, but since I had my own point of view, I had to defend it. Thus, I said,"The evidence is that these people are so tall. Didn't the legends say that Chi You was twelve feet tall?”
Yang Liu let out a sigh and said,"Pah, which legend said that Chi You was twelve feet tall?" Even if there are documents that can be investigated, the measurement data of different periods are different. According to what you said, there are also documents that say that Chi You has a bronze head and iron arms, and that his buttocks can breathe fire. Can we infer that Chi You is an alien robot?”
I nodded and replied seriously,"It's not impossible. Why do you always like to argue with me?”
"Bah, I can't be bothered to talk to you about mosquitoes. Do you have any other opinions?”
Mozzie had been staring at the mural. After a while, she turned around and said,""Haozi's words are not unreasonable, but the more it is like this, the more this mural cannot withstand scrutiny. It is possible that Chi You really came from here. If that is the case, then the "primitive door" we are looking for is most likely in the cave. But how did Chi You, or the five people on the mural, get their keys? Why did they enter? How did he know that there was a secret inside before he went in?”
I was almost stunned. I quickly asked Mozzie to stop and said,"Stop talking. My brain is about to explode. The more I analyze, the more complicated it becomes.”
Just as the three of us were about to break down, Team Leader Chen, who usually didn't answer every question, actually took the initiative to speak. He said,"Other than those three people and the group after them, there was a third group of people.”
If that was the case, then everything would be easy to explain. If this mural was the masterpiece of the third batch of people.
Wait, that does make sense, but
Mozzie spoke first to express our common doubts," Team Leader Chen, if this painting was painted by the third batch of people, then they would naturally know everything that happened on the mural. Then wouldn't they have succeeded?"
Mozzie couldn't think of a suitable language for a moment. Yang Liu quickly added,"Observer."
I thought to myself that it was fortunate that Yang Liu could come up with such a term. The term "observer" mostly came from anime. In other words, in a certain world, there was a special kind of neutral existence. They knew everything and paid attention to everything in this world as observers. No matter what happened, they would not interfere and would only silently witness the changes in this world.
However, a new problem arose."Even if they are observers, why did they create this mural? Were they afraid that others wouldn't know? Team Leader Chen, I think if you really treat us as your own people, it's better to "
I sighed. I had already asked a few times and knew that Team Leader Chen wouldn't say anything this time. It was useless to ask, so I decided to stop.
Team Leader Chen really gave us face and didn't say anything. He only asked us if we still wanted to see the murals. If we didn't, we would have to prepare to leave this place.
"Leave?" Yang Liu turned around and looked around." How do we leave? By the way, Team Leader Chen, there's a question I've been wanting to ask you. Why did we suddenly come here just now?”
I really wanted to ask too, but my gaze was completely diverted by the mural just now. I didn't care if Team Leader Chen said it or not, and I still looked at him with anticipation.
Team Leader Chen turned to look at the mural and said,""I don't know."
Tsk, I knew he would say that, but then he continued to tell us that the original Team 3 also came here five years ago, but the situation was much more serious than what we experienced. A mystic police officer died in the black gas.
Looking at Team Leader Chen's sad expression, we didn't ask too much about what happened. We only asked him how to leave this place.
Team Leader Chen only told us to follow him. I shook my head and followed behind Team Leader Chen with Mosquito and Yang Liu.
Team Leader Chen took out the rectangular object that opened the passage and pressed it on the stone wall as he walked. The three of us followed him strangely like idiots. If the camels behind them had any brains, they would definitely say that those people were all f * cking idiots.
After walking along the stone cellar for less than half a distance, a passage slowly appeared on the wall a few meters in front of us.
