With Ah Qin's explanation, the picture is actually very easy to understand.
Later, the girl died in battle and transformed into Jingwei. Everyone looked sad.
Beyond that is a huge circle, and there is nothing else.
The next scene shows the history of the Aqin people's multiplication in the snowy areas and their migration to the south.
Wei Zi turned back to the mural with the masked man.
Seeing this, Su Nian wondered: "This man can stand next to the girl. I guess he is not an ordinary person, but why is he the only one in this painting?"
Ah Qin stared for a long time, and suddenly an idea came to his mind: "Is that the scepter he is holding in his hand?!"
Wei Zi looked solemn: "He is the high priest, and what he holds in his hand is the scepter I am looking for."
This was the first time that she saw the high priest actually appearing in ancient records, instead of being a vague figure in those memory fragments.
"Let's go inside and have a look."
When Ah Qin heard the word "scepter", his blood boiled all over his body: If the scepter thing is true, can he really find a way to be reborn?!
Before Wei Zi could reply, she had already moved forward holding a torch.
Sure enough, I walked inside and found some more pottery.
Most of them are broken, and only a few are intact.
There are some ropes next to the pottery.
"Why are there so many ropes?" Su Nian picked up the rope and looked at it for a long time.
"Knot a rope to record things." Wei Zi pointed to the knot above.
"Oh - what does the knot above mean?" Su Nian couldn't help but ask.
Wei Zi shook his head.
"You don't know?" Su Nianqi asked.
Wei Zi couldn't help laughing: "I'm not a god. It's normal that I don't know about things from thousands of years ago. Maybe Ah Qin knows."
She turned her head to look at Ah Qin, but Ah Qin shook her head: "I don't know...but I think these ropes are a bit strange-"
"Su Nian, Feng Qing, spread out these ropes." After Aqin said this, Wei Zi also took a closer look: "It's a little strange, not chaotic, in order..."
"I feel like a painting..."
"A little bit... but more like a map -"
Wei Zi suddenly remembered:
Ah Qin and his family are called "Jingwei" and they are the descendants of Nvwa.
Nvwa died in the battle at the northern end of Tianyu Mountain, but the Jingwei tribe has continued to multiply, and there is a saying: "When the Snow Mountain Goddess returns, she will take them away from the bitter cold land in the far north and return to the birthplace of their tribe.
A seaside place as warm as spring.”
In other words, the high priest must have sealed the girl in some way back then. So, is the way to unlock the seal the same as rebirth?
In the legend of the Jingwei tribe, the place of rebirth is in the snowy area where Nvwa died in battle.
As for where in the snowy area?
These ropes record the route.
And why use rope?
Firstly, there was no writing at that time, and secondly, even if there was writing, the method of tying knots to record events was the most hidden method.
Ah Qin also reacted: "If this is a map, then it should record the route to the place of rebirth in Fajiu Mountain."
"Fajiu Mountain?" Wei Zi was surprised.
"Well, the place where the goddess died is Fajiu Mountain in the Tianyu Mountains. That mountain also has a name, Youdu Mountain, and it is said to be the place leading to the ghost realm." Ah Qin explained.
Wei Zi nodded and asked, "Can you understand the route on this map?"
