It was not war that ultimately led to the demise of the ancient state of Qi, but a man-made natural disaster!
This is not surprising to Chen Yibai.
Because the greatest enemy faced by the earliest ancients in terms of survival was natural disasters.
So in order to adapt to the environment, constant migration has become a part of the evolution of human civilization.
Feng Shui was born in this situation.
According to archaeological experts, the mysterious Sanxingdui civilization was most likely destroyed by some natural disasters, such as floods, earthquakes...
But it seems a bit far-fetched to say this.
Chen Yibai continued to turn around and look at the sixth mural.
Before looking at the sixth mural, Chen Yibai made a guess in his mind in advance.
According to the ancients' consistent belief and worship of gods, this sixth mural is likely to be a scene of sacrifice, building an altar, offering living tributes, and praying for the forgiveness of the gods...
At least in the sacrificial culture of the Shang Dynasty that Chen Yibai is familiar with, this is basically the way it is done.
In fact, Chen Yibai had guessed it right.
This sixth mural is indeed a sacrificial scene.
A huge octagonal sacrificial platform was built in the center of the palace. The two-headed king knelt on the platform. In the center of the platform stood a priest-like person wearing a loose animal skin robe and holding a skull scepter.
The priest is the medium for communication between people and gods, and plays a very critical role in sacrifice.
The priest was holding a tortoise shell in his hand.
The oracle inscriptions were written in oracle bone script on the tortoise shell.
This is to seek guidance from the gods and predict good and bad luck through divination.
It's a pity that Chen Yibai doesn't understand oracle bone script, and the oracle inscriptions on the tortoise shell are obscure and difficult to discern.
Not to mention Chen Yibai, less than one-tenth of the oracle bone scripts discovered so far have been truly deciphered, let alone the translation of the entire oracle inscription.
But judging from the content of the seventh mural, the ancient Xi Kingdom seemed to have received guidance from the gods through this sacrificial divination.
Looking at the seventh mural, there is a seventeen-story corpse tower, and the two-headed Xi King was buried in the golden coffin of this golden palace through a special ceremony.
To be precise, it should not be a burial, but the two-headed Xi King lay down under the guidance of the priest!
In addition to the two-headed Xi King buried in the golden coffin, there are also the seventeen clan leaders and all the people of the ancient Xi Kingdom, all buried in the corpse tower...
Only the priest walked out of the corpse tower, and he also deliberately drew a back figure facing north.
When seeing this, Chen Yibai's imagination was opened up.
Judging from the content of the seventh mural in front of us, it is highly likely that the ancient country of Qi, through sacrifice and divination, asked the gods for guidance, and the solution obtained was that the ancient country of Qi would temporarily sleep underground, and then let the priests go out to find a solution, or go out to ask for help!
When the priest left, he faced north. At that time, the north was the birthplace of Chinese civilization!
As for the two-headed Qi king of the ancient country temporarily sleeping underground, although this sounds very outrageous, there has always been a legend of "longevity through magic", and the origin of the legend should also have some basis.
Chen Yibai looked back at the huge golden coffin behind him again.
According to the above speculation... the two-headed Qi king sleeping in the golden coffin is still "alive"!
What about the final ending?
The content of the seventh mural is that the ancient country of Qi is implementing the guidance of the gods.
Then the eighth picture, which is the last picture, is undoubtedly the ending that the ancient country of Qi wants to get through the guidance of the gods.
Chen Yibai turned around with curiosity, widened his eyes, and looked at the last eighth picture carefully without blinking.
However, when Chen Yibai looked at the eighth picture with the wolf-eye flashlight in his hand, he was so surprised that his scalp exploded and goose bumps all over his body!
In this eighth picture, the entire ancient country has become a ruin covered with vines, which means that a long time has passed.
However, in this scene of ruins, a giant dragon came from the north!
The giant dragon has a human body and a snake tail, naked upper body, fluffy hair, and a single eye.
Others can't tell what it is, but Chen Yibai is very familiar with it!
Isn't this a candle dragon?
It turns out that the priest of the ancient country went to the north, and the reinforcements to be brought in are actually candle dragons!
This is not the most important thing.
The most important thing is that there is a figure standing on the shoulder of the candle dragon!
The figure was tall and straight, wearing scale armor and holding a long sword. He looked majestic, especially when he stood on Zhulong's shoulder. He looked like a god descending from heaven, with a stern look on his face.The extraordinary momentum of looking down on the world, although the face of this person is very vague, it is obviously not the priest of the ancient Qi country.
In addition, due to the rich details of the mural, Chen Yibai even looked familiar with the scale armor worn by the person in the mural, and the patterns engraved on the sword were almost exactly the same as the red ancient sword in his hand!
No!
Not exactly the same! Exactly!
The person standing on the shoulder of the candle dragon is wearing red armor and holding a red ancient sword!
This is also what makes Chen Yibai feel incredible and shocked.
"King Kang?"
The first thing Chen Yibai thought of was that the person who came on the candle dragon was King Kang!
It was the King Kang of Qishan, not the King Kang of Quxie...
So in the seventh mural, the ancient Qi country obtained the guidance of the gods through sacrifice and divination, which was to go to the Shang Dynasty to find King Kang for help?
It stands to reason that this possibility is very high!
But Chen Yibai has a feeling that there are many things wrong.
For example, although the ancient Qi Kingdom was more than 2,000 kilometers away from the Kang Dynasty at that time, it was not particularly far away. Even if it took a year to go back and forth, it would not be necessary to use the method of "Yi Shu Changsheng" to sleep in the ground first, right?
In addition, in the eighth mural, the ruins of the ancient Qi Kingdom palace were covered with dense vines. The meaning here should be that it took a long time for the "savior" riding the Candle Dragon to come here!
In addition, all the carving details of the entire mural are very full, lifelike, and vivid, except for the face of the man standing on the Candle Dragon's shoulder, wearing red armor and holding a red ancient sword. There is only one possibility.
That is, the divination of the sacrifice in the ancient Qi Kingdom only got that there would be a person wearing red armor, holding a red ancient sword, and riding a Candle Dragon, but no one knew who it was!
The more Chen Yibai thought about it, the more he felt his scalp explode, incredible, and even got goose bumps on his body.
He stared at the figure standing proudly on Zhulong's shoulder in the mural.
Could this person... be him?
