spn "Jianmu is in Duguang, and the emperors are from top to bottom"

This is the words written in "Huainanzi·Terrain". Xiaoqian started with this sentence and told us her analysis: "The so-called 'Duguang' is what is said in "Shan Hai Jing Hai Nei Jing". The "Duguangzhiye" in the archaeological community generally believes that it refers to the Chengdu Plain. The concept of "Jianmu" is the legendary sacred tree. The meaning of this sentence in "Huainanzi" is: there is a tree called The sacred tree of "Jianmu" is in the Chengdu Plain, and the gods descended from this sacred tree between heaven and earth. This is actually a concept of "reaching the sky" of the ancients, which represents the understanding of the universe. The magic is that this " The legend of "Sacred Tree Tongtian" is not limited to the ancients in our country, but there are similar legends all over the world, but the name of this "Tongtian Shenshu" is different. Generally speaking, the East calls it "Fusang wood" and "Building Tree". Wood', while the West calls it 'Ruomu', 'World Tree' and so on..." Xiaoqian's words triggered my memory, and reminded me of the guide's explanation of the giant bronze tree when I visited the Sanxingdui Museum , So he said: "Xiaoqian, I remember that there is an original enlarged Qingtong tree exhibit in the Sanxingdui Museum. The tour guide at the time said that it was considered to be the legendary 'Jianmu'."

"Well, what the tour guide said is correct, but it is not very specific. It should be said that the green paulownia tree in Sanxingdui may be considered to be 'Jianmu' or related to 'Jianmu', but it has not been confirmed. I remember that A British scholar named Rosen expounded his understanding in the book "Secrets of Ancient China". He believed that the tung tree in Sanxingdui was made of the most precious bronze at that time, and its volume was still very large. Shu people attach great importance to it. It is very likely that it is implying a kind of cosmic world beyond the human world..."

"Wait a minute! Brother and sister, my brother is very familiar with "Shan Hai Jing", and we also know the legend of Jianmu. Let alone the sacred tree, the bird painted on the rock wall, we all know that it is the 'Golden Crow' The point is... We are not here to talk about myths! What does this have to do with the way out? Your ancient culture class has been taught from abroad to China, why haven’t you focused on it!! I’m so anxious! How dare you Say no quickly?"

"Yan Laosan! If you don't interrupt me, I'll finish talking! These things are too complicated. If you don't talk about the first part, you won't understand the rest! Listen to me honestly!" Xiaoqian stared anxiously at the monkey. Yan Sanye, who was jumping, stroked his hair and continued: "The ancient Shu culture represented by Sanxingdui is most famous for two points. The first is the ancient witchcraft sacrifice, and the second is the exploration of the universe. Especially the latter, the unearthed cultural relics hint everywhere. The concept of the universe of the ancient Shu people, such as the sun bronze wheel, the sacred tree, the bronze statue of "Zongmu" who looks like looking at the sky with a telescope, etc. According to what we have seen so far, the ancient city under our feet is obviously the origin of the Sanxingdui civilization. And , we also analyzed just now that the urban layout here is completely showing the advanced concept of the universe. According to the understanding of the ancient Shu people, the "Jianmu" sacred tree is a "ladder" connecting the center of the universe, and the lesson before us The giant tree is obviously the real 'building tree' of the ancient Shu civilization! Looking at the terrain here, the so-called Tongtian is naturally..." [

It's time to say something here, everyone has completely understood Xiaoqian's thoughts.Although this analysis process is mixed with a lot of jerky knowledge of ancient civilizations, which makes everyone feel a little dizzy, but the information with a clear source makes Xiaoqian's analysis very detailed and well-founded. One hundred percent trust.

I looked at the sun above my head, which had already started to go west, and immediately decided to give up exploring other places, and went straight to the giant tree embedded in the rock wall.Everyone nodded in agreement, hurriedly walked down the pyramid, and took Professor Mo and others with them to the end of the "Yellowstone Avenue".

When we reached the end of the road, we were blocked by a huge pyramid like a hill in front of us.Its width is several times wider than the "Yellowstone Avenue" that can accommodate ten cars in parallel, and its height is roughly estimated to be [-] meters away, which seems to be much higher than a [-]-story residential building.The shape of this pyramid is similar to the ones seen before, all of which are flat-topped in the shape of the "Mayan Pyramid".Facing the side of the "Yellowstone Avenue", there is a long staircase leading directly to the top of the tower, while the giant tree embedded in the rock wall is blocked by it.

We left Professor Mo and others to rest by the stairs, and the four of us divided into two groups to explore the two sides of the pyramid, intending to see if we could walk around to the giant tree from the side.The side of the pyramid is very different from the "Mayan pyramids" I know. There is no stone ladder leading to the top of the tower. Instead, it is a slope with a large angle like the pyramids in Egypt.At the sideline of the slope is a wall slightly lower than the tower body, which reaches the roots of the giant tree.The wall is made of a material similar to that of the giant tree, like the root system extending from the giant tree, tightly enclosing the gap between the tree body and the pyramid, making it impossible for people to get around the back of the pyramid.

"Grandma's! No way?" Yan Daojie next to him suddenly uttered a cry of surprise, and then he leaned close to the wall and looked carefully.

"Third brother, what's the matter? Have you found anything?"

"It's amazing! This ancient city was originally populated by nouveau riche, right? Your mother is a land master who farts—Cheng Liuer's air! The thing that built the wall turned out to be petrified wood!"

"Huh? What?"

"It's silicified wood, also called tree jade. This thing is a fossil of trees buried underground for millions of years. It can be regarded as a treasure. It was speculated in the antique market for a while a few years ago. These Although it’s not very popular in the new year, but according to the appearance of this pile of stones, it’s worth a hundred thousand to move out! This ancient city is so fucking awesome!”

I couldn't help being a little dazed by Sanye Yan's words, and subconsciously turned my head to look at the giant tree that reached two-thirds of the valley's rock wall.Seeing those materials that were obviously the same as the walls, I felt a little numb from the huge shock in my heart.A huge tree can be assembled with so many tree fossils, regardless of the difficulty of the craft, the value alone can be listed as the highest in the world, right?It is said that when Sanxingdui was discovered, it was called "the eighth wonder of the world". According to what we have seen along the way, the ancient city under our feet is probably the source of Sanxingdui civilization, and it should be the real miracle of the world!

Just as I was staring at the giant tree dumbfounded, the second daughter who had searched the other side of the pyramid came over.When everyone met, they found that the situation on their side was the same as this side, they were also tightly surrounded by walls, making it impossible for people to pass through.It seems that if you want to see the front of the giant tree's root, you have to go up the stone steps to the top of the tower first, and then you may be able to find a way to enter the giant tree.Thinking of this, I quickly suppressed the shock in my heart, and called everyone back to the front of the pyramid to climb up the steps.

This stone step is very long and the slope is very steep. The height of each step is about [-] centimeters, and it takes a lot of energy to climb.Professor Mo's spirit has always been in a state of confusion, and Secretary Du and V Liu can only climb up with the burden on their backs in turn.Everyone walked for a long time, seeing that the top of the tower was not far away.At this moment, Secretary Du, who was carrying Mr. Mo on his back, suddenly lost his feet, and immediately knelt down on the stone steps, and then he tilted his body, almost rolling down the pyramid with the old professor.Fortunately, V Liu, who was next to him, had a sick hand and jumped on him in one fell swoop, thus avoiding a tragedy.

This frightened me so much that I hurriedly told them to stop and rest.Before I finished checking Secretary Du's injuries, Xiaoqian who climbed to the top of the tower first let out a terrified scream!

I had a bad idea in my heart, so I took out my dagger and jumped up to the top of the tower in a few steps, pulling Xiaoqian who was standing on the edge of the platform behind me.When I took a closer look, an extremely weird and terrifying picture broke into my sight in an instant.

The platform on the top of the tower in front of us is a standard square, surrounded by stone fences. There are only two gaps at the same position where we came up and on the opposite side, and each is connected to a long ladder.In the center of the platform, there is a square stone platform that protrudes upwards, and many complicated lines and runes are carved on the platform.These patterns are covered with patches of black traces, as well as several mummies with strange shapes!

I tightened the dagger in my hand, gestured to Ruan Yu and Yan Sanye beside me, and then cautiously stepped forward to observe carefully.

These mummies were dressed in tattered outdoor sportswear, and the exposed skin was a weird bluish-gray, tightly wrapping the bones.They all lay on their backs on the stone platform, with their arms crossed in front of their chests, their feet together and outwards, forming a radiant circle.The heads of the mummy were cut off, and they were neatly arranged in a circle in the middle of the stone platform, with their faces facing the corpse.The skin of these skulls is tightly wrapped around the skull, and sparse and messy hair grows on the top. Although the dark eye holes are full of eyeballs, they always look like they are staring at them, which makes people feel involuntarily. Scalp tingling.

"My mother! What the hell is this!" V Liu's crying voice interrupted my thinking.I turned my head to look, and I saw him who was supporting Mo Lao just up the stone steps with Secretary Du, and was immediately frightened by this pile of weird mummies and fell limp on the ground, his face pale.Secretary Du's expression was also very terrified, and he was obviously terrified. His body, which was already a little exhausted, kept swinging, as if he would fall to the ground in the next second.I yelled to Yan Daojie and asked him to help V Liu and the others to prevent them from falling down the stairs.

At this time, Ruan Yu walked up to me with a gun in his hand, looked at the mummy for a while, and asked: "This thing has no head, so it probably won't come back to life?" [

"Well, second brother and sister, don't worry! This thing doesn't have the smell of a corpse, it should be an ordinary mummy. But this way of death is a bit strange..." Yan Daojie, who had arranged for Secretary Du and others, walked to the edge of the stone platform and used Pulling the mummy with the gun barrel, he said: "The appearance and color of this corpse looks like it was poisoned. Why cut off the head when it's poisoned to death? This is not taking off your pants and farting-it's unnecessary! Tsk tsk! It's still hard work Put it in the shape of a 'sun', what does that mean? Performance art?"

"Hmm...it looks like a sacrifice...but it's a bit strange." Xiaoqian poked her head out from behind me, looked at the mummy and quickly shrank back.

"Look, there are a bunch of backpacks over there," Ruan Yu pointed to the side of the stone platform, and continued, "Although these mummies are weird, I can't tell the approximate time of death. But looking at the clothes of these people, I think it's very strange. It might be Qiao Yu's expedition team."

I nodded my head in agreement.In fact, I have already started thinking about this just now, but because of a suspicious point, I have not said it.When observing the mummy, I counted it silently in my heart. There are eight mummy and heads, which can form eight complete corpses.However, if I remember correctly, when Professor Mo mentioned Qiao Yu's expedition team to us earlier, he clearly mentioned 'an expedition team of ten people'.Judging from the current situation, even if Qiao Yu, who doesn't know whether he is a human or a ghost, is a living person, this number is still one less!Who is the one missing?Where did he go?

Just as I was secretly wondering about the stall, V Liu tremblingly got up and walked towards me, as if he wanted to say something to me.He tried his best to turn his head to avoid seeing the mummy, as if he could faint from fright just by looking at it again.After finally walking around the stone platform and walking in front of me, v Liu took a deep breath to stabilize his mind, and said, "Team leader Mu..."

As soon as he called out this title, his throat suddenly choked up, his eyes widened suddenly, and the intensity of the movement almost made the eyeballs pop out of their sockets.Immediately afterwards, a wave of extreme fear climbed up his distorted face. He stretched out a violently trembling hand and pointed at my back continuously, shouting hoarsely: "Yu... Qian!"
