The Villain Only Wants to Live a Buddhist Life2

After the news of the Golden Sand came, Qiao Xiu joined the fanatical gold rush team without hesitation.

The golden sand gushing out from the ground has made countless people rich overnight.

Slaves, wine, estates...

Everything imaginable is easily available.

Joshua went back and forth between the desert and the market town tirelessly, immersed in the carnival day and night.

until a certain day.

The desert gushing out the golden sand suddenly collapsed, and all the gold diggers fell into an ancient city.

That city was the City of Gold, the last capital of the El Dorado.

And the King of El Dorado sleeps forever in the Golden City.

The surviving archaeologists identified the inscription on the place where they fell, and told Qiao Xiu and the other gold diggers that the Golden King buried endless treasures in his tomb—that's the secret treasure!

In order to find the golden king's secret treasure and become a new generation of gold kings, Qiao Xiu and the gold diggers were swallowed by huge greed and went deep into the city unprepared.

……

This is how the story begins.

As for whether Qiao Xiu succeeded in obtaining the treasure in the end, or was he permanently lost underground?

Duck didn't see the end.

He put down "The Golden King and the Secret Treasure" and picked up Emma's notebook.

The excerpts in the notebook are the stories recorded in the murals, that is, "the fall of El Dorado".

There are eight murals in total.

In fact, it adopts a more abstract description method.

In the first painting, ragged paupers unearth cartloads of ore from a mine.

The ore inside is actually gold mine.

The painting shows the miners digging in the mine.

In the second painting, a half-naked blacksmith forges ore into standard square bricks.

Then you are actually casting gold bricks!

In the third painting, merchants in common clothes sold baskets of square bricks to nobles.

In fact, it was not a merchant, nor was it an ordinary aristocrat.

Rather architects and ministers.

The gold bricks are collected by the minister, implying that this is an order from the king.

In the fourth painting, nobles in luxurious clothes use square bricks to build towers on top of the altar.

Under the king's order, the minister began to build the golden pagoda.

The so-called "altar" means that the "golden pagoda" was built for sacrifice.

In other words, the entire golden pagoda is a sacrifice!

In the fifth painting, thousands of human beings are praying for the coming of a certain existence under the altar.

People prostrated themselves in front of the golden pagoda and began to sacrifice.

In the sixth painting, the shining monster emerges from the black hole in the sky during the sacrifice.

The golden beast god responded to the human sacrifice and woke up from deep sleep.

In the seventh painting, the ferocious and greedy monster roared and devoured all the sacrifices and humans.

Everything will be sacrificed.

In the eighth painting, human blood and corpses put together a strange pattern on the ground.

Only death is eternal!

……

The story itself is very simple. It is nothing more than that the king at that time summoned the god for a certain purpose, but he was swallowed by the god.

The so-called "God" was originally a name full of awe created by human beings for individuals far stronger than themselves.

Whether it is a human-shaped, intelligent god, or a beast-shaped, ferocious god.

are gods...

In the super ancient era, because of the preciousness and immortality of gold, human beings linked it with "eternity" and constructed the identity of "gold = eternity".

The King of Gold, who has infinite wealth, follows this identity, builds gold into a tower, and offers it as a sacrifice in exchange for eternal life.

But obviously, he failed.

And eventually led to the destruction of El Dorado!

……

Emma talked about her own opinion with great interest: "The Kingdom of Gold has another name in historical records, the Kingdom of Eternity! The so-called alchemy is the refining of gold, the pursuit of eternity, and the pursuit of eternal life!"

"The Golden King is known as the earliest alchemist in many documents. He refined gold in order to seek the method of immortality, and El Dorado is just a by-product of the research process."

"El Dorado was originally a kingdom built on desire, and it was ultimately destroyed by desire."

"The animal gods depicted in the murals are not necessarily real gods, but may also be the embodiment of desire."

"And the essence of the whole mural is this last painting!"

"I suspect it is a pair of refined array!"

……

"The Golden King and the Secret Treasure, the destruction of the El Dorado, the earliest ancient alchemist, the Golden King, and the last one, a suspected formation made of human blood and corpses."

Duck couldn't help thinking about it.

When he was copying the murals in the secret passage, he felt that the eighth painting was particularly weird, so he put in the most effort when copying it, and painted it very finely.

But even so, it is still an extremely huge project to restore the complete formation from a painting.

It can even be the subject of an entire college career!

Chapter 145 Dak Dimon Sleeps with the Beast

Due to his lack of knowledge, Dak failed to give his own opinion on the study of murals.

But Emma's research has undoubtedly revived his interest in murals.

However, there is a difference in order, and we cannot put the cart before the horse.

Under the current circumstances, the study of "magic language" is the most important thing, and the study of mural paintings can be carried out as a topic of partial interest.

when he mentions this.

Emma said solemnly: "Of course, studies are the main axis, and research is just a hobby. I won't lose sight of one or the other."

Then he returned to his seat with a happy face.

……

Dak looked at the "Golden King and the Secret Treasure" left by Emma and felt a little headache.

He still has a "Biography of Merlin" and only read the beginning.

There are more and more books to read, but less and less time.

He left the library with the book in his arms, and decided to read "The Golden King and the Secret Treasure" for tonight's bedtime reading.

The common room of the Noble House is still lively.

Classes start on Monday, but students always play late on Sunday night.

He sat next to Diana and Rose for a while, rubbed a toffee, and then went upstairs.

But just when he was about to unlock the lock, Dak stopped his hand suddenly. He seemed to hear a sound inside the door?

St. Marian's dormitory has sound insulation measures as a whole, and the general movement will not come out of the door.

In other words, what came out of the door must be unusual news!

Dak frowned, and subconsciously inserted his fingers into the card case.

But he thought about it again, but he just held the magic card between his two fingers without summoning it.

"Crack!"

Unlock and push the door.

A gap appeared, and the voice from inside the door burst into my ears.

It was extremely noisy, as if a large number of cats and dogs gathered together and barked wildly.

Dak frowned slightly, and then frowned even tighter.

He quickly squeezed into the door and locked the door again so that the noisy sound would not affect the rest of the other students.

The lights in the room were on.

Snow-white lights illuminate every corner of the dormitory.

Whether it is on the table, on the chair, on the cabinet, on the shelf, all kinds of animals are crawling.

Dak was not too surprised.

He kicked the fat lion blocking the entrance, and the big cat lazily moved a little to the side, making a barely passable path for him.

But on the road ahead, there were still two giant bears fighting, and a few monkeys were booing and patting their buttocks.

Big-mouthed orange parrots fly through the air, dropping feathers everywhere.

On the bird stand above the head, there are two lovebirds performing a double flight.

The snake and the mongoose were entwined, and the mongoose's scream pierced the eardrums.
