Ghostly Tomb

Chapter 1898 Big Merchant Family
【Thanks: Human Contact 20000】

What Fat Wei said was not wrong. When Chen Zhi's searchlight hit the wall here, the heavy metal feeling was instantly reflected from the light.

In an instant, the dignified feeling of this ancient nation 5000 years ago instantly infected every blood cell in them.

Perhaps because of the unique blood relationship of the Chinese descendants, everyone's emotions at this time became very heavy.

This is the source of Chinese civilization, and everything they touch comes from the origin of their blood.

This is... the real kingship of the Huaxia Human Race!
This royal palace is different from the building of the gods. This building is not perfect, nor is it as delicate and luxurious as the tomb of the gods.

But it is solid and heavy. The walls he sees now are all made of thick stones, and the gaps in the stones are all spliced ​​with bronze plates, and the patterns are cast with gold and copper water, which looks rough. Bold and unconstrained, magnificent and broad.

Demonstrates the unique character of human kingship.

The place where they landed should be the entrance of a corridor. Here is an octagonal room, the floor is spliced ​​with atmospheric floor tiles, and almost all of them are surrounded by bronze statues.

Those statues are all the heads of animals and the bodies of humans, but they are all strong and muscular, holding stone hammers of ancient soldiers, looking very rough, silently telling their own stories in the dark.

Chen Zhi remembered reading some ancient materials, because of the restrictions after King Wu's successful defeat of Zhou Dynasty, there were very few real descriptions of the Zhou Dynasty.

But in the materials that Chen Zhi remembered, there were everywhere descriptions of the characteristics of the people of the Great Shang Dynasty who were good at conquest and hunting. Merchants were good at hunting and preferred nomadism.

Hunt your prey, but reverence your own!

Their philosophy is very similar to some sects of Indians. While hunting their prey, they thank the prey for using their flesh and bones as food, allowing them to survive.

Then the fur of the prey is hung up in a special way and displayed to future generations.

These statues of animal heads and human bodies are the images of people's worship of prey at that time.

Fat Wei is naturally relatively familiar with this kind of ancient buildings...

After determining the route, he began to lead the way, and everyone followed her.

Their footsteps are very light, but when the metal-coated soles step on the floor tiles, they can still make a crisp sound of "dang~~".

But they were not nervous at this time, because they could clearly feel intuitively that the Nuoda palace had become completely empty.

Everything is a trace left over from the past.

This is a real relic, a vast and awe-inspiring relic.

Along the way, they saw many things that historians of later generations wanted to see.

But there are many more..., which are miracles that historians of later generations can't even imagine.

For example, they passed a hall-like room, the floor of which was covered with golden ivory.

It was real golden ivory, and the color on it was brighter than gold now.

Chen Zhi once heard a legend that after the extinction of mammoths in the Ice Age, a golden tusk appeared.

This kind of elephant inherits the huge size of the Mengma elephant, but it is very aggressive.

It is very ferocious and likes to feed on animals that are smarter than itself. It is difficult to catch in general traps.

This ferocious beast is very bloodthirsty, but the blood-soaked teeth are the same color as gold.

Many human warriors hunted them and put their teeth in the room to show their bravery. This kind of ivory is very precious, and the meat of this kind of elephant can be enough for the whole tribe to eat for a whole day.

Chen Zhi was very interested in these fragmentary ancient legends, and wanted to see with his own eyes what this huge creature with golden ivory looked like.

But now, these ancient creatures have actually appeared in front of them.

The rows of huge tusks, bound by chains of pure gold, lay on the ground.

There is also the gigantic giant elephant skeleton, which filled the rooms one after another, looking very shocking.

They continued to walk down, and then all the stone chambers were very large, and the things inside were basically related to hunting.

The bronze walls were covered with large pieces of gold and brass, and some of them were hung with huge bows and arrows.

The strong bow is extremely thick, and the bow strings are all pure gold, shining brightly. I don't know what kind of warrior the hunter who used it in the past was!
There are also many half-moon-shaped white jade pieces hanging on the wall, engraved with scenes of ancient merchants hunting.

They are very good at hunting. Groups of ten or hundreds of people attack mountain-like large prey collectively, using various types of traps to trap these large beasts inside.

They have hunted giant elephants, giant beasts, giant birds, and large sea fish.

Chen Zhi saw a golden leopard skin, which was unbelievably big.

You can touch its golden fluff from below, but you can't see where the top leopard head is when you look up.

They also saw one bronze pillar after another on the ground, on which hung a giant bird with its head cut off, which was about ten times larger than the current eagle.

Walking through the patchwork of specimens is quite awe-inspiring.

These living prey vividly show the vigorous Shang Dynasty era, as well as the ancient people who advocated hunting - merchants.

However, after passing through these attractive prey exhibition halls, they entered an extremely narrow corridor.

This corridor is incredibly narrow, and the distance between the two sides is less than one meter.

But from the ground to the wall, it was all dark purple in color. Chen Zhi touched it, and it was all painted on the stone with purple paint...

Chen Zhi remembered that there was a saying from a long time ago.

Purple is the color of the monarch, and the road the monarch walks can only be a one-way road, and no one is qualified to walk beside the monarch.

Under the gods, above ten thousand people, the monarchy is granted by God, and no one controls it.

This is also the initial form of human kingship.

As Chen Zhi walked forward, he looked at the ground under his feet. He didn't know what kind of craftsmanship it was. After the purple stone brick was stepped on, golden thin flowers gradually grew out.

Set off against the purple corridor, it is very noble.

After walking a little further, the corridor finally came to an end.

They walked to the destination, and there was a binaural guest room connected in front of them.

The so-called binaural guest room is a very characteristic guest room in ancient times.

Rituals and music had not yet collapsed before the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the ancients at that time were very particular about the etiquette of their residences.

Who lives in what house and who walks through the door are very particular.

The so-called binaural room means that there is a large main entrance.

Distinguished hosts and guests enter through the main entrance, they are upper-class people.

And there are two small doors with the same ears on the side, very small, only enough for one person to go in and out.

It is for slaves and servants, and the lower classes come in and out of it.

Although it is only an entrance, it clearly defines the ranks and shows the status of the nobles, so it is called the binaural room.

And this kind of room usually entertains distinguished guests that the host attaches great importance to.

But now in this hall, the amphora door is open, and all the curtains inside are floating out.

It feels like the guests here have just left...
