spn "big wood! look above!"

Xiaoqian behind me patted me.I looked up along her fingers, and saw half of a broken skeleton in the broken urn diagonally above the urn.Looking around, I saw scattered bones in other broken urns, but the number was not many. It seemed that most of the bones had been scattered on the ground due to the broken pottery urns. The Passage of the Underworld".

"These pottery urns are coffins? Why are they still hanging in the air?" I looked at the scattered bones on the ground and the pottery urn above my head, and asked suspiciously. "Well... it's also possible. There are many places where the custom of hanging coffins is found. Jiangxi and Sichuan are more famous. Jiangxi is in Longhu Mountain, and the coffin is placed in a cave on the cliff. Sichuan is in Gong County, Yibin The method is to drive piles on the cliff to support the coffin. According to the method, these in front of me are in line with the customs of Sichuan. However, it has never been seen in history that the corpse was buried in a pottery urn as a formal burial. All I know The Woju people of the Han Dynasty had the custom of using pottery urns to fill dead children in pottery and bury them in their backyard.” Xiaoqian raised her camera as she spoke, snapping pictures non-stop.

Professor Mo held his gold-rimmed glasses, looked up for a long time, pointed to some pottery urns that appeared to be in good condition, and said: "Xiao Xia is right, the hanging shape of these pottery urns is indeed very similar to the hanging coffins in Sichuan. Pottery urns Although the custom of formal burial of corpses has not been recorded in history, in the early Yin and Shang Dynasties, wooden barrels were used as coffins in some places for formal burial. This custom was later spread to Japan, so Japan used it during the Shogunate period The coffins are still in the shape of large wooden barrels. The culture of the Shu region is passed down from the ancient Shu Kingdom, and the civilization here is very likely to be the origin of the Sanxingdui culture. If it is assumed that this hanging urn is a funeral method, then it evolved into Bo (sound in the later period) It is also very possible that the coffin hanging on the cliff of the "Bo") people!"

"Huh? What is this?" [

While we were discussing these pottery urn stalls, Yan Daojie's voice of surprise suddenly came from behind.I turned around and saw that he was squatting on the ground carefully poking through the pile of bones with a saber, as if he had discovered something.Ruan Yu stood next to him with a gun on guard, the muzzle of the gun vaguely pointed at the broken bone, with a dignified expression.Seeing this, I hurried over, just in time for Yan Daojie to clean up the broken bones, revealing what was buried under the bones.The moment I saw that thing, my scalp felt numb for a while, and I immediately lifted the dagger.The reason is him, just because the thing lying in the broken bones is... a strange insect!

This insect is not the flying insect that blocked us in the valley. It has no wings, only a helmet-shaped carapace divided into two sections and a short tail.The size of this worm was larger than a basketball, with a flat and round body, and a large number of sharp insect legs protruding from its body. At first glance, it looked very much like a marine creature called "horizontal horseshoe crab".

Yan Daojie stretched out the shotgun in his hand, and carefully poked the strange insect lying there motionless with the muzzle.Seeing that the worm didn't respond, he held his saber and wanted to get closer.Thinking of the weirdness and viciousness of the giant flying insects in the rift valley, and being left with the "insect-phobic sequelae" by them, I grabbed Yan Daojie and backed away, and said to Ruan Yu, "Stay far away and shoot. Let’s talk about some reflections.”

Ruan Yu nodded, took a few steps back and shot the strange insect on the ground.The impact of the strange insect's quilt hit it several times, and its carapace was broken a lot, but it still remained motionless.I got closer and took a closer look. The worm shell was empty, and some unknown tissue shriveled into a thin piece and stuck to the inner wall. It seemed that this strange worm had been dead for a long time.Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he heard Jiang Wei not far away shouting in surprise: "My God! What is this? Professor! Professor! Come and see!"

Jiang Wei was standing in the middle of a pile of broken bones, pointing at the rock wall in front of him and shouting excitedly, waving his other hand excitedly.Seeing this, Professor Mo hurried over, just stood still, and blurted out with a scream: "God! This... this is a pictograph! No complete writing has ever been unearthed in Sanxingdui, only seven talismans that look like characters and pictures. Wen, I didn't expect... there are such detailed records here! National Treasure! National Treasure!!"

"Really! This discovery alone is amazing! The seven runes unearthed in Sanxingdui are called "Bashu Tuyu". Whether they are characters or not has been debated in the archaeological circle. Moreover, even these This kind of controversy already has some history. I remember the argument in "The Book of the King of Shu" that the ancient Shu people "did not understand writing, and did not have rituals and music". However, "Huayang Guozhi" said that the Shu people had "colorful articles". History There are huge discrepancies in the records, and the Bashu characters have long been a mystery of the ages. Unexpectedly! This mystery was solved in our hands! Professor, hurry up and take pictures and rubbings!" Rushed to watch Xiaoqian touched the rock wall with her slender fingers and said excitedly.

"Ah! Yes! Yes! I'm so happy, I'm so confused! Xiao Yu! Xiao Jiang! Quickly get something rubbing!" Mo Lao repeatedly waved his hands, as happy as a child.

I walked to Xiaoqian's side and looked at the rock wall seriously.I saw a square depression about one meter long and eighty centimeters high on the blue-gray stone surface.The scale of the subsidence is not large, about five centimeters.The sunken plane is engraved with dense runes in the form of intaglio, which looks like calligraphy and painting, simple and mysterious.

"Hey?" Ruan Yu, who came to the side, let out a small sigh, turned her head to look around, and then said softly with her lips close to my ear: "These runes are a bit like the tattoos on your body..."

At this moment, Xiaoqian, who was staring at the rock wall on the left, seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly reached out to my shoulder, turned her face and said to me: "Big wood! I saw your tattoo last time in the hospital... ..."

The reason why a coincidence is called a coincidence is that the process of its occurrence will be ingenious beyond your imagination.Xiaoqian was going to grab the hand on my shoulder, but accidentally grabbed Ruan Yu's head that was stuck to my face.The sudden approaching distance made Ruan Yu subconsciously stretch out her hand, which just happened to make Xiaoqian, who was planning to talk next to my ear, miscalculate the distance.As a result... My cheeks were instantly pressed against four equally warm and soft lips... The three of them stood stiff on the spot!

"Oh hello! Seventh Master! Dazzling! Too dazzling!! I owe it to you not to blind my brother! It's nothing more than you messing around with two daughters-in-law. If you want to make out, you'll be sneaky too! How come we kissed in public! Three people together! It’s too much!!!” Yan Daojie’s exaggerated joke made the two girls jump away from me like an electric shock, and the two pretty pink faces turned around In contrast, they glanced at each other and then turned back each other. A turbulent undercurrent seemed to run through me standing between the two women in an instant.

I hastily took a step back, intending to escape from the center of the storm.Unexpectedly, I was so restless that I didn't care about my feet, and a broken bone almost tripped me up.Yan Daojie grabbed me who was staggering, and laughed and said, "Hey! What's the matter? Are you still playing shy? Why are you so nervous? If you want to play shy, you have to be those two siblings, you big Gentlemen's..."

"Third brother! Where's Mo Lao and them?" I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead and interrupted him loudly.The different fragrances drifting across the cheeks on both sides are still entangled in my nose.If Third Master Yan speaks at this moment, it is very likely that two bombs of shame and anger will be detonated at the same time.

"These two brothers and sisters... huh? You say Mo Lao! Here! I found another painting over there just now, and they all gathered there. I originally planned to come here to call you, but I didn't expect to see it so much. Come out! Seventh Master! If I get a needle eye tomorrow, you will be in charge of seeing a doctor! Oh, hello! My eyes are shaking~" Third Master Yan covered his eyes and howled, his performance was extremely realistic.But he had a smirk on his face, his fingers covering his eyes were wide open, and his teasing eyes could not help but glance at the second daughter who was still flushed through the fingers, which was not serious no matter how you looked at it.

"Third Master! Save your life for brother! This is an accident! An accident!" I hugged his head and murmured a few words in a low voice, then shouted loudly, "Go and see the murals", and dragged Yan Daojie to escape. It seems to be far away from the two pink storms.

Not far ahead, I saw Professor Mo and others standing in front of a mural and watching it carefully.The size of this mural is basically the same as the outer frame of the text just now, and the depth of the depression is also about the same, obviously from the same regulations.The lines of this drawing are simple and clear, and the content does not seem to be a narrative, but rather a... map!

"Third brother! Do you think this thing looks like a map?" I pointed to the starting point in the picture and said, "Look! This arc is the rift where we encountered flying insects, and then there is a small lake. Here is this Plank road, behind this is... eh? What is this? A ball of flowers? A whirlpool? What does this mean?"

"Xiaomu! We discussed it just now, and we all think it looks like a map. The back here... I think it might be the ancient city we're looking for! But... it's strange, I haven't seen any civilization in the city passage The one with the map engraved on it..." Professor Mo lay down in front of the rock wall with a magnifying glass and looked at it seriously. [

"We don't understand ancient culture, but I think it makes sense to engrave a map here!" Yan Daojie pointed to the long and narrow plank road, and said, "Look! Although this passage is open to the sky, there are mountains on both sides. The wall is high and slippery, and it is basically impossible to climb. The width of the passage is estimated to be less than five meters, and the specifications are strict. No matter how you look at it, it looks like a military path in a fortification. This map is probably an instruction map. I In the fortifications that have been advanced before, there are passages like this."

"Ah? The instruction map in the fortifications? This standard is only modern, right? This thing is more than 6000 years old...won't it be so advanced?" I asked in surprise.

"How do I know this! I just look like it. Seventh Master! We men are not specialized in archaeology, how do we know this! I think we should stop messing around, let others hurry up, let's take a break .”

After Yan Daojie finished speaking, he pulled me aside, sat on the backpack and watched Professor Mo and the others busy.Soon after, the rubbing and photographing work was almost finished, and the mural was completed here, so everyone packed up their things and waited for Yu Qian, who was still rubbing the text.After waiting for a while, V Liu, who was eager to continue looking for a way out, became a little impatient. He pulled Secretary Du and walked towards Yu Qian, intending to help her tidy up in order to speed up.

"Whoa!"

There was a sudden cracking sound!When V Liu was less than three meters away from Yu Qian, a pottery urn above their heads suddenly shattered.A white human-shaped object covered in juice fell behind Yu Qian with a "click", and was struggling to get up slowly!
