The Secret History of Mars.

"He Bo, do you want to go to the shrine of the master first, pay a visit, and then go back to the Wenye Hall to rest?" the high priest asked Wen Yuze tentatively.

"Master is not such a stickler. You can take everyone to the front hall to settle down. I will take Qinghe by myself in a while, and I will go to the temple to pay respects to Master." Wen Yuze felt that there are some things that need to be explained to Ye Qinghe. It would be smoother for the master, without waiting for the high priest to answer, he led Ye Qinghe to the apse of the Wenye Hall on his own.

The crowd followed the high priest to the front hall, which not only looked like a Greek temple from the outside, but also had the same layout as the Parthenon on the Greek Acropolis.When the high priest ordered the guards to serve fruit and vegetable refreshments, Cui Xingmeng had time to appreciate the temple.

The Doric column, also known as the "male column", is simply decorated with 20 grooves, surrounding and supporting the entire temple.The columns are narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and are slightly inclined inwards to correct the vision of the human eye and avoid the illusion that the columns are deformed and the sides are sunken inwards.The proportion of the temple strictly follows the rule of the golden section, making the whole building harmonious and stable.

In the front hall where everyone is sitting, the most striking thing is the two tall statues of gods, one is a handsome male god made of gold, a golden ax is held in front of his chest, and a golden dragon is hovering beside him , very much like Wen Yuze in the golden elder robe, that dragon should be Yinglong, and the ax on his chest should be Wen Yuze's Pangu axe.

The other one is a charming and glamorous goddess made of white jade. She is dressed in plain clothes and has nine fox tails behind her. Needless to say, this is Ye Qinghe who was still using the nine-tailed fox carrier thousands of years ago.No wonder the high priest was so restrained when she saw Ye Qinghe just now. Although she no longer uses the body of a nine-tailed fox, her charming and glamorous expression is already the high priest and the people of Qiyanji, the goddess of Wenye Temple who has worshiped for thousands of years , Seeing a real person is naturally the piety hidden in the genes.

"These two gods are Wen Yuze and Ye Qinghe?" Cui Xingmeng asked knowingly.

"No, it's our King Yu and Queen Tu!" The high priest replied knowingly.

"Wen Yuze is really amazing. Without Qinghe's photos, he can create such a god-like jade statue with his memory." Cui Xingmeng answered the words nonchalantly.

"Miss Cui, for the sake of everyone's safety, I suggest that you don't mention the three words Wen Yuze, but call our monarch He Bo, at least in Wanggu City, this name will not cause trouble." The high priest finally retreated up.

"Hebo is your monarch's baby name, right? Why is it unsafe to call him Wen Yuze? This is the name Qinghe gave him, and I think he is quite used to it." Cui Xingmeng blurted out.

The high priest hurriedly made a "shh~" gesture to her, "Miss Cui, why don't you listen to good people's advice? Just because it was the name given to him by that woman, you can't call it here, you can't say it! People with this name The man was sacrificed to the Sun God by Yinglong back then, and our current monarch is a descendant of Xuanyuan, Ji Hebo!"

"That woman?!" Cui Xingmeng obviously didn't expect Ye Qinghe to be called like this, "You mean... your Empress Tu?!" Cui Xingmeng really couldn't find the right way to address these things that met the requirements of the high priest. The influential figures in ancient times were eager to gain wisdom, and asked the jade statue of the goddess.

"Sin, sin!" The high priest hurriedly saluted the statue respectfully, and then said to Cui Xingmeng righteously and sternly, "Empress Tu is the empress we are married to by King Yu's matchmaker. It's a perfect match! , Beauty and misfortune are on par!"

'Well, according to the high priest, Ye Qinghe has been downgraded from that woman to a confidante! Cui Xingmeng was a bit dumbfounded. He was obviously alone. It seemed that the high priest in charge of ideological work must ensure the correctness of history. As for the truth, he didn't seem to care.

From the perspective of the high priest, this fabricated history is indeed reasonable.The marriage of Yu Wangtu, who was celebrated by the whole tribe that year, is naturally a chapter of praise in the history of the nation!Later, Wen Yuze ran away for love, and was incorporated into the Martian Elders' Home because of emotional injury. If these were recorded in the chronicle of Qiyan Ji according to the facts, let alone let the people continue to worship the gods of Wenye Temple, I am afraid that Wen Yuze would have He was pulled down from the altar, and has since disappeared.

For the sake of Wen Yuze's country, the high priest really broke his heart.Thinking of this, Cui Xingmeng felt relieved, and no longer made things difficult for this loyal servant who had followed his monarch for thousands of years, but continued to enjoy the scenery of the front hall.

"Is this pool filled with water?" Yuan Yizhou asked, pointing to the pool of liquid in front of the statue. The liquid was transparent to the bottom, but it always felt that it lacked a sense of lightness and clarity.

"No, it's olive oil!" The high priest also wanted to end Cui Xingmeng's entanglement with Wen Yuze's name as soon as possible, so he directly took Yuan Yizhou's question and replied.

"Olive oil?! Why did you put such a pool of olive oil in front of the god statue?!" Cui Xingmeng knew that the worship of gods in ancient times did not spare any money, even sacrificed their lives. However, the quality of this pool of olive oil is only It is for sacrifice, which is really a bit wasteful.

"The olive oil in this pool has two functions." The high priest was still concise and he was unwilling to say a word. "The first is for the lighting of the god statue, and the second is the sesame oil collected by the worshiping people."

'The lighting of the statue? Only then did Yuan Yizhou discover that it was not just the shape of the temple that was designed strictly according to the golden ratio.There is no lighting facility inside the temple, but the light is warm and sufficient, especially the two statues, which are so radiant that even with Shi Yiji's special lighting design, the lighting is bright.

After the high priest said so, Yuan Yizhou discovered that the designer used the liquid in the pool to reflect the sunlight coming in from the gate, so that the sunlight would scatter to the statue, and the golden sunlight was reflected by olive oil, adding a layer of Luxurious and gentle, the nobility of the two statues is highlighted to the extreme!

Such an ingenious and natural design is really amazing. Compared with this, those ancient Greek temples that were regarded as treasures in the Shiyi period can only be tricks, which pales in comparison!
"The worshiping people?!" Cui Xingmeng saw a few people from the square on the city wall just now, but he didn't see the so-called common people along the way! "Where do the people of Wanggu City live?"

"Miss Cui, move over here and see for yourself." The high priest led the crowd along the corridor of the front hall to the back of the statue.
