This underwater passage is not spacious. It is only less than one and a half meters wide. It can only allow two people to walk side by side. It is not very high. At a high estimate, it is only two meters high, so walking in makes people feel uncomfortable.
There was a feeling of suffocation and oppression. In order to prevent aggressive creatures inside, Hu Zhibo took the lead and sneaked in to inspect the situation. Fortunately, there were no creatures in the passage, only the slippery stone walls were covered with moss.
The team immediately filed in. Gu Fengchun was at the front of the team this time. He found that the passage here was slightly raised forward. Presumably the terrain here must be at the end, and there must be a place leaving the water. There should be an air-filled cave there.
place.
Thinking of this, Gu Fengchun breathed a sigh of relief. The oxygen in the masks on everyone's bodies had already been almost consumed. I'm afraid it wouldn't last long just relying on the oxygen inside. So he immediately asked everyone to speed up their progress.
.
"Feng Chun, look at this stone wall." Xiao Zhonghua accidentally rubbed off a thick piece of algae and discovered that there was something underneath the algae cover. So he conveyed his discovery to Gu Fengchun through the communicator.
Gu Fengchun quickly swam to Xiao Zhonghua's side.
What Xiao Zhonghua discovered was a mural. Some lines outlined some figures on the wall. However, the displayed part was still very narrow. Gu Fengchun pulled out the military thorn and slowly scraped it on the wall. When everyone saw this,
He also took out utensils to help scrape the walls. After a while, the moss on both sides of the walls was peeled off, revealing a magnificent picture.
The lines of the mural are very delicate, but also very simple. The mural is only outlined with the simplest lines, but it still shocks the ancient style.
This is a narrative mural, and it is very long. Everyone only scraped the moss on the section of road they swam through, and the part that went inside was still hidden in the seaweed moss. Gu Fengchun signaled everyone not to stop and continue to scrape inside.
After getting up, he walked back, wanting to look all the way from the entrance to get a closer look.
Luo Xiaodan knew Gu Fengchun's intention, but he didn't trust him alone, so he went with him.
There are murals on both sides of the wall. Fortunately, the murals on both sides describe different things. Moreover, Gu Fengchun feels that the ages of the two murals are not consistent, and the time is very different. The mural on the left is obviously longer than the one on the right.
It's much rougher.
In the mural on the left, there is a huge mine where people are mining and smelting. Gu Fengchun was surprised to see some familiar tools from the pictures of these mines. Those are all mining trucks! In addition to the mining trucks, there are also
There were a lot of mechanized equipment. It was just that the murals were relatively crude, and Gu Fengchun couldn't tell what they were. Gu Fengchun trembled all over and couldn't speak. How could such a thing appear in this mural? Gu Fengchun couldn't tell what it was.
Chun's brain was a little confused.
But this is not the point. In the murals, in addition to mining, there are also smelting factories, as well as smelted items: copper pillars! Bronze pillars! Gu Fengchun has seen these bronze pillars before, and these bronze pillars are in the temple.
Standing in the doorway. Judging from these proportions, the actual length of this bronze pillar is probably no less than 500 meters. The part I saw was only a very small part exposed on the surface.
Gu Fengchun soon discovered that after the murals reached these bronze pillars, the picture became different. Because Gu Fengchun saw that these bronze pillars were transported using human and animal power! A mining industry has already used mechanization for production.
In this era, manpower was used to transport finished products. Is this possible? Gu Fengchun shook his head and couldn't figure out what was going on. But when he compared the murals before and after, he found that there was another mystery in it. It lies in manpower.
Comparing the picture of the transportation with the previous picture, except for the bronze pillars, everything else has changed. The factory and equipment behind the bronze pillars were all reduced to ruins.
Gu Fengchun seemed to understand something at once. The records in the murals were from a civilization that was earlier than the emergence of human civilization. When Gu Fengchun communicated with the mysterious female voice in the Great Forbidden Land, he got a positive answer. Before the emergence of human beings
In the past, several advanced civilizations similar to humans were destroyed by prehistoric humans. And the female voice also said that some civilizations were even more advanced than the current human civilization.
Gu Fengchun looked anxiously all the way, wanting to know what happened during this period. However, he was disappointed that nothing valuable was found in these murals. However, he counted several different changes. These changes are
: The background of the mural has been changed six times in total, and these scenes, from smelting copper pillars to transportation, to construction, to completion, are all transformations between the mechanical capabilities of a high civilization and the physical strength of a low civilization.
What does this mean? Gu Fengchun quickly thought about it and quickly came to the conclusion. That is, this temple was built successfully after different civilizations and a very long time. In this temple
During the construction of the temple, a total of three transformations between higher civilization and three lower civilizations were completed before it was finally completed.
In Gu Fengchun's understanding, it was the Wu tribe who built this temple under the guidance of prehistoric humans! But this discovery is enough to prove that his previous understanding was wrong, perhaps not completely correct.
.It is very likely that the Wu tribe participated in the construction of this temple, but they only participated in part of the construction of the temple. Gu Fengchun did not know which part the Wu tribe participated in. Was it the high-end period of civilization development or the low ebb?
There is something Gu Fengchun still doesn’t understand. Why is this temple always being built during the replacement of these civilizations? Why didn’t prehistoric humans let one of the civilizations build the temple and then kill it?
Gu Fengchun felt that his mind was in a mess. He couldn't help but sigh again and thought: "It would be great if Chen Si was awake." But Chen Si was still asleep.
Gu Fengchun didn't have any clue, so he went to see the murals on the other side. There were not many murals on the other side, but more carved symbols. But Gu Fengchun couldn't understand these symbols because they were written by the sharks.
Gu Fengchun found it very strange why the characters of the sharks appeared in this place. Especially the characters of the sharks were still in a very backward state.
"King Shark, come here and help me translate these words." Chen Si gestured to the shark to come over. Gu Fengchun secretly said in his heart: "Maybe the answer is here."
