Building a Salvation Organization from Scratch

Chapter 39 Jade Passage
"It's outrageous."

Professor David stood in front of the huge door, his eyes filled with enthusiasm and anticipation.

I am afraid that no one would have imagined that there would be a relic of an ancient civilization hidden in the mountain. This was such a huge and difficult project in ancient times.

The changes in the terrain of the mountains and rivers are almost negligible within a thousand years, so there is a high probability that the ruins were not buried after they were built, but were built in the mountains from the beginning. The difficulty of their construction will never be less than that of a pyramid.

If it were not for the coincidence of an earthquake today, I am afraid that this ruin will still be preserved here without being discovered by anyone.

"What will it look like behind this bronze door? It's really exciting."

Professor Dukes stretched out his hand, caressing the bronze that has undergone some changes over the years.

Just the bronze door alone made him unstoppably excited.

The most powerful use of bronze in the world is naturally the ancient Chinese civilization.

As a professor who studies the Olmec civilization in ancient American civilization, he has recently been keen on the research on the theoretical conjecture that the Yin people traveled eastward.

There are striking cultural similarities between the ancient Chinese and the ancient Americans.For example, the Olmec civilization, the ancestor of American civilization, is surprisingly similar to the Yin and Shang Dynasty of Huaguo at the same time.

People of the same yellow race, with hieroglyphs similar to Yin Shang oracle bone inscriptions, jade-loving culture, pictures on various jade wares similar to Yin Shang culture, the same sayings about heavenly stems and earthly branches and ancestor worship, dragon totem...

There are so many similarities that people can't help thinking that the earliest and sudden Olmec civilization in the Americas has some connection with the Shang civilization.

Coincidentally, in the historical records of the Hua Kingdom for the same period, a team of more than 20 people in the Yin and Shang Dynasty disappeared mysteriously. It is said that they marched eastward and escaped from the newly appointed King Wu.

At that time, if you go further east, across the Bering Strait is the American continent.

Therefore, the saying that the Yin people traveled eastward to achieve the Olmec civilization became popular.

Professor Dukes feels that behind this relic today, more solid evidence may be found to support the theory of the Yin people's eastward journey and support his related research on ancient American civilization.

"No matter how excited you two are, we have to find a way to get in as soon as possible."

"The stone carvings at the door at most prove that this is a remnant of the Olmec civilization, and the interior of the bronze door is the highlight."

Seeing the two professors fumbling around on the bronze door, obsessed with studying the lines on the door and not going in, Carioca urged him aside.

As a Sinologist, he has been cooperating with the two professors to study the theory of the Yin people's eastward journey, so he is naturally interested in this relic full of Yin Shang and Olmec flavors in front of him.

He had an intuition that the discoveries here would surely shock the world.

But the movement here must have disturbed the troops stationed outside for some reason, and the troops are probably already on their way here.

They will definitely be held accountable for sneaking into the San Cristobal Mountains. If they are captured by then, they will not have the opportunity to explore and study immediately.

"Yeah, the interior is the main event."

Professor David came back to his senses after hearing the words, and began to fumble for a possible switch on the door.

After all, the bronze door, which is almost 30 meters high, does not seem to be directly pushed by manpower.

Seeing this, Professor Dukes and Carioca also stepped forward to look for it.

Soon, they found a button-like existence on the stone sculpture of a human head at the door.

On the forehead of the stone-carved human head full of Olmec civilization style, a peculiar sun pattern is engraved on the raised button.

"Do you want to press it?"

Carioca looked at the two people around and asked.

"It could be a trap, or it could be a button that opens the door. Whatever it is, it's likely to fall into disrepair."

Professor David spoke ambiguously, not knowing what his opinion was.

"Press, in front of us historians, there is no unknown past."

Professor Dukes's eyes were bright, and he said very seriously.

It took them quite a while to find their way through the countless rubble caused by the violent vibration just now.

There is nothing to hesitate and think about now.

If you want to go in and explore before the army arrives, all you have to do now is press this button.

Carioca paused after stretching out his hand, seeing that the two professors did not stop the movement, and then pressed it without hesitation.

The next moment, a slow and heavy friction sounded in my ears.

The three looked at the sound.

I saw that huge bronze door began to open automatically little by little.

The bronze door that separates from the middle and moves horizontally to both sides is slow and steady.

The eyes of the three couldn't help but bursts of surprise flashed. This mechanism, which has existed for an unknown amount of time, still has no problems.

Curiosity filled the hearts of the three scholars.

With such a well-preserved mechanism and the ruins hidden in the mountain, will there be any other shocking things in it?
Soon, the bronze door stopped moving.

An open hole was exposed, and the eyes that looked in were swallowed by the infinite darkness, and it was impossible to see what it was like inside.

"If it's this dark, we'll need a flashlight."

As Professor David said, he rummaged through the things in his backpack.

"This kind of ruins located in the mountain all the year round must have vents, but after such a long time of baptism, it is uncertain whether there are vents."

"Fortunately, we brought small breathing equipment."

Professor Dukes said, showing a very prescient look.

In his backpack, there are three portable nasal inhalation oxygen cylinders and masks, which are enough to explore for 10-30 minutes in areas with unknown air.

Seeing this, Carioca twitched her mouth subconsciously.

At the critical moment, the two professors can take out everything like Tinker Bell.

Although he secretly complained in his heart, the movement of putting on the equipment on his body did not stop at all.After all, as a scholar, he is also looking forward to the next discovery that may shock the academic world and the world.

The huge bronze gate, the mechanism built in the mountain and still functioning after a long time, these are unimaginable miracles.

The three of them quickly arranged their equipment, then used flashlights to temporarily tear through the darkness at a distance, and headed towards the bronze door.

In this invisible environment, the flashlights of several people are the only light.

It can be roughly seen that this is a deep, sealed passage up and down.

The surrounding walls and ground seem to be covered by the same material, which looks translucent and reflective, warm as jade.

Or to be precise...

This is jade!

The ceiling, floor, and walls are all covered with light turquoise jade, carved with various patterns full of Olmec civilization style.

Decorated purely with jade, the overall look is extremely simple and luxurious, which is almost more luxurious than the legendary Golden City.

"It's not accurate to say that these patterns are the style of the Olmec civilization. Carioca, come and see if it is more similar to the style of Yin Shang."

Professor David pointed to a pattern on a wall, and said to Carioca beside him.

"These patterns are somewhat similar to Yin Shang, but there seem to be many differences."

"Could this kind of pattern be the pattern only in the transitional stage of the transformation from Yin Shang culture to Olmec culture? If so, this is the solid evidence of the Yin people's eastward journey."

"If it is confirmed, the whole world will have to admit that the origin of American civilization may really come from the Shang Dynasty."

Carioca looked at the lines and pondered.

Before he could continue to express his opinion, bursts of light lit up in the darkness.
