The Return of Cambrian Period
Chapter 38
exhausted.
Everyone began to retreat one after another, and the big animals, such as Dorji and Abu, took a little effort to squeeze in.
Finally, all the living people entered the passage, and because they were worried that there would be no oxygen, they could not be directly blocked, so Song Qi blocked the entrance of the passage with layers of spider webs, and kept repairing the spider threads that were hit, but the spider threads obviously They couldn't hold it for too long, they either looked for a way out, or rushed out after resting.
They turned on the lights and wiped out the monsters that came down with them.After the basement returned to calm, they collapsed to the ground one after another, gasping for breath. Temporary safety did not make people feel at ease, and the blade of death was still on their necks.
Rong Lan shot a beam of light, and they looked at it carefully, and they were all stunned.
The size of this basement is not small, about three to four hundred square meters. The four walls are made of earthen walls. It looks very rough. There are large and small bones scattered on the ground. There are people and unknown beasts. Nothing special.
Cong Xia's face became even uglier: "The puppet jade is still deeper underground."
Liu Fengyu was surprised and said: "What? Is there an underground palace under here?"
"There must be another mechanism." Zhuang Yao jumped up from the ground: "Everyone find it separately."
Those who could still move stood up and looked for the mechanism, and a few natural force evolutionists guarded the entrance of the underground palace. With this "fortress", the defense is a hundred times easier than above.
"Tsk, it's all earthen walls." Shan Ming held a flashlight and groped as he walked.
Cong Xia, Mr. Sun and Zhuang Yao were right next to him. Cong Xia said, "Mr. Sun, let's look for it. You go and have a rest." Mr. Sun was already out of breath. It must be too much.
Mr. Sun said: "It's okay, time is precious."
Before they knew it, they had reached the corner and still found nothing.
In the dark, touching the rough earthen wall, listening to the howls, makes the scalp tingle.
"Here..." Before Zhuang Yao finished speaking, he lost weight suddenly. He let out a cry of surprise and fell straight into the darkness.
Cong Xia felt that his body was falling rapidly like a kite with a broken string. He quickly gathered energy and thickened his fat, but the image of himself falling into a meatloaf appeared in his mind. Then, the severe pain hit, his eyes went black, fainted.
"Hey, Cong Xia, wake up."
In a trance, Cong Xia felt someone slapping his face, and the action was a little rough. He was already in a daze, but now he was slapped like this, and he felt something in his head: "Ah, don't, Stop shooting, hiss..."
"Are you awake? Didn't break it?"
"Shan... Brother Shan?" Cong Xia rubbed his head, the surroundings were pitch black, and he could only tell by the sound.
"Well, the kid and Mr. Sun also fell down, and they both fainted, but they still have breath, so you heal them quickly."
"Okay..." Cong Xia wailed in pain as soon as he moved. He thickened his fat layer before landing, and with the protection of energy armor, his bones and internal organs were fine, but he still fell hard: " Damn, how high is this."
"More than ten meters away, without that energy armor, the old and the young would probably have fallen to their deaths."
Cong Xia reached out and groped: "Where is the person?"
Shan Ming turned on the small flashlight and took a photo to the side. While seeing Zhuang Yao and Mr. Sun, Cong Xia also saw half of Shan Ming's face covered in blood, which was very scary in the dark: "Brother Shan, your head... "
"It's okay, just take a look at them first."
Cong Xia touched Zhuang Yao and injected energy into his body to repair the broken leg bones and ribs.His energy armor was on the verge of collapse, while Zhuang Yao's energy armor was completely shattered.Healed Zhuang Yao's wound and put on a new armor. He then went to treat Mr. Sun. Mr. Sun's weak breathing scared him enough.
After healing everyone's injuries, Cong Xia was already sweating.
Soon, Zhuang Yao woke up. The voice that had just changed was somewhere between a child and a teenager. It was clear and pleasant. He hesitated and asked, "Did we fall from where we were just now?"
Shan Ming shook the flashlight: "It really is an underground palace, and it was dug so deep."
Cong Xia said: "Is it just us?"
"Just us."
At this time, Mr. Sun also woke up. They didn't rush to find a way out, but sat on the ground, put the flashlight in the middle, and stared at each other.
They got into a rather awkward and dangerous situation.In the past, no matter what difficulties and dangers they encountered, they had strong teammates by their side.But now, there are two brain evolutions, one is twelve or thirteen years old, and the other is over 60 years old. Apart from brain interference, Cong Xia only has the fighting level of an ordinary strength evolution. He can't even beat Shan Ming. Although he is a tough mercenary, he is still an ordinary person who has not evolved.As long as they encounter any mutant creature in the restricted area, they will be finished.Even if they don't encounter any monsters, they are underground, with no food or drink, how are they going to leave? .
Cong Xia said depressedly, "What should we do now?"
Zhuang Yao said: "Wait, they must be trying to save us."
Shan Ming said: "We have been in a coma for two hours, if they had a way, they would have come down earlier."
Mr. Sun sighed: "Xiao Dan is right, if they had a way, they wouldn't wait until now."
"Find a way to save yourself." Zhuang Yao grabbed his hand and got up, "Look at what's around."
This time, the four of them dared not separate, and stayed close to each other, looking for a way out with the faint light circle of the small flashlight.
This room is very high, but the space is not large. They walked along the wall and soon found a convex groove containing oil. These oils extracted from animals and plants were commonly used lighting supplies in the Han Dynasty. Because of their age, Has congealed into a block.
Shan Ming threw the match in, and the fat slowly ignited, illuminating a large space.
Following the light of the fire, they looked up and saw huge murals on the rough soil walls. Most of these murals had lost their color, and some were even more difficult to identify.
Cong Xia was surprised: "This is... Could it be that the painting is Nuwa mending the sky?"
Although the murals are rough and dilapidated, it can be vaguely seen that the protagonist is a woman with her hands raised to the sky, and there are many people, animals, wildfires, and monsters below.
Zhuang Yao nodded: "It's the picture of Nuwa mending the sky with five-color stones."
Nuwa mending the sky is a familiar passage in ancient mythology, so it is not surprising to see it here.
Shan Ming said: "Wait, this mural is coherent, there are two walls on the left and right."
They inspected around and found that there were murals on three sides of the basement, which seemed to be a coherent story. They looked from right to left one by one, and the first wall was painted with a male god with a hideous appearance and a man in luxurious clothes. In Doufa, the background is floods and thunderstorms, and continuing to the left, there are landslides and turbid currents swallowing the world.
Zhuang Yao said: "This painting should be about Gonggong, the god of water, and Zhuanxu, one of the five emperors, fighting for the position. After losing, he knocked down the Tianzhu Buzhou Mountain in a fit of anger. The earth is dimensionless, the four poles are ruined, the Kyushu is split, the sky is tilted to the northwest, and the earth is sinking to the southeast', it is because of this Nuwa that the five-color stones are used to patch up the sky, and these murals are indeed coherent."
"Look at the last one."
In the last mural, Nuwa has finished mending the sky, and put the last five-color stone left on the sky, and a Taoist priest riding a tiger is standing next to the five-color stone.
The murals are gone here.
Cong Xia frowned and said, "The previous ones are all recorded in ancient myths, but what does the last one mean? Who is this Taoist priest?"
Neither Mr. Sun nor Zhuang Yao spoke, and wandered back and forth between the three murals.
After watching for a long time, Zhuang Yao said: "Based on the age, appearance, and mount, this person should be Zhang Daoling, the ancestor of Taoism. It is said that when Nuwa decided to mend the sky, she searched for materials and chose the five-color soil from Tiantai Mountain, a fairy mountain in the East China Sea. The five-color soil is the sacred soil that contains the essence of yin and yang and the five elements. It absorbs the spirit of mountains and seas and gathers the energy of heaven and earth. Nuwa used the sun god fire to refine [-] five-color stones. The last piece was put back on Tiantai Mountain. The significance of this last mural is probably that Zhang Daoling came to fetch the five-color stone. There is no record in this passage, and his purpose for taking the five-color stone is also unknown.”
"Five-color stone..." Cong Xia couldn't help touching the ancient jade stuck to his stomach.But ancient jade doesn't have the characteristics of five-color stones at all, not to mention that this should be just a folk mural, which is all related to ancient myths, and his thinking jump is really not that big.
Zhuang Yao saw through his thoughts: "I intuitively feel that this underground palace can give us many answers."
Mr. Sun said: "By the way, Xiao Cong, can you still feel the puppet jade?"
Cong Xia was taken aback for a moment: "Oh, I fell stupid, well, I can't feel it now."
"Since the puppet jade can move underground, we should be able to too. There seems to be a long corridor over there, let's go outside."
The last side of the four walls is a bottomless long corridor. The long corridor is dark and gloomy, like a big mouth that can swallow people.
They found a long stone, Shan Ming took off his coat and rolled it on the stone, dug up a large piece of fat, and made a simple torch, the four of them settled down and walked deep into the corridor.
On the other end, Cheng Tianbi, Shen Changze and the others were in a state of desperation.
Shen Changze sternly said: "They went down here just now, why doesn't this agency respond now?!"
"Some mechanisms have a limit on the number of touches or time." Tang Tingzhi carefully pried open the mechanism button hidden in the earth wall with a tool, and his slender fingers followed the mechanism button to poke inside. The more he probed, the deeper his frown became.
"How about it, can you open it again?"
Tang Tingzhi stretched out his hand and said, "We have been played by someone. This mechanism has rusted to death long ago, and it can't be touched at all. The dark board that Cong Xia and the others fell is manipulated by someone."
Cheng Tianbi stared fiercely: "There is someone in here?" If it was really man-made, what was the purpose of that person?Could it be Cong Xia?Cheng Tianbi was so anxious that the top of his head was about to smoke.
"There may also be surveillance in this basement, but it's too big and the light is dark, so I can't find it."
Rong Lan said angrily: "We tore down this floor!"
Tang Tingzhi shook his head and said, "Don't mess around. This is an ancient building with an earthen structure. Any violence may cause unbearable damage to it. If we are buried alive here, more than half of us will die. Even if it needs to be demolished, let me calculate the load. "
Deng Xiao jumped up anxiously: "Then what should we do?" Abu also yelled towards the corner angrily and anxiously.
Li Dao'an said: "I can try to integrate my head into the floor, but I can only partially elementalize it, and it may not be effective."
Shen Changze said: "What are you waiting for, try it quickly."
Half of Li Dao'an turned into brown soil, fell silently on the ground, and slowly infiltrated into the soil. This process was very slow. When he finally penetrated the floor, his eyes were dark, and he shouted the names of the four people, But there were only echoes.
He tried his best to explore all the places within the range of elementalization, but returned in vain.
When everyone saw his expression, their hearts became heavier.
Cheng Tianbi slammed down on the wall: "Go back to the ground, I'll tear it down."
Shen Changze gritted his teeth and said, "I want to go down too."
Tang Tingzhi said: "Let me calculate, Officer Li, tell me the thickness of the floor and the east and west walls."
After getting the data, he squatted on the ground and thought about it for a long time, and then used a stone to draw a one-meter-square square two meters away from the corner of the wall: "Cut such a piece with a laser, and Shen Changze will go down the wall all day long."
As soon as the hole in the floor was opened, Cheng Tianbi and Shen Changze turned into wind and fire and got in.
Tang Tingzhi shouted, "Have you found anyone?"
Shen Changze said: "No, there is no one in this room at all."
"It shouldn't be, this is where they fell."
Tang Tingzhi frowned and said, "Could the room move?"
Cheng Tianbi shouted: "We found another entrance, let's go in and have a look."
"Be careful."
Cheng Tianbi and Shen Changze completely disappeared into the room. While resisting the mutated animals that kept pouring in from the passage, everyone waited anxiously...
The basement was so quiet that a needle could be heard falling, and the four of them followed suit, their hearts beating uncontrollably and rapidly.
Shan Ming said: "There is a room over here."
After groping in, a musty smell that had been dusty for a long time came to his nostrils, and Zhuang Yao coughed twice uncomfortably.
"Is there anything in it?"
"It's too dark, damn it, the grease is almost burnt out." Shan Ming trembled twice, as if he was burned.
Mr. Sun coughed twice: "This room doesn't seem very big, let's see if there is anything..."
Before the words fell, everyone suddenly heard the sound of the machine turning.
Shan Ming's eyes darkened, and he threw the three of them to the ground. The ground under his feet began to shake, and the whole space was spinning. The original door turned into a wall!
Cong Xia asked anxiously: "Where is the door, the door?"
Mr. Sun sighed: "This room can move, and the original door has been turned."
"There seems to be a new passage over there, and there is wind."
Shan Ming said angrily, "What the hell kind of place is this!"
Mr. Sun said: "Continue to go where you can go. There is nothing here, and there is no point in staying where you are."
The four had no choice but to continue walking along the new corridor. After walking not far, Cong Xia suddenly said: "I feel the puppet jade!"
"where is it?"
"On this side, the wall is blocking it, and it's only two or three hundred meters away from us!"
Zhuang Yao said: "How did the puppet jade shuttle underground? There must be a mechanism here. Damn it, it would be nice if you brought a searchlight."
The torch was quietly extinguished, and Shan Ming turned on the flashlight, only to find that the battery was also in jeopardy. In this boundless darkness, light is simply the ultimate luxury.In order to save electricity to cope with the crisis, Shan Ming turned off the light.
Cong Xia smiled wryly and said: "It's all right now, there's no food, no drink, no way out, and you can't see, even if you have all the skills, you can't get out."
"Twice..." Mr. Sun muttered.
"what?"
"The room rotated at least twice, one was when we fell, otherwise the people above would have come to save us, one was just now, these two rotations were aimed at us, it should not be a coincidence that the agency presupposed, but deliberate."
"You mean, the agency traps us on purpose?"
"Yes, and the thing that controls the mechanism is likely to carry the puppet jade."
Cong Xia shivered: "Could it be a human?"
Just when the four of them were deep in thought, the sound of bells came from the silent underground palace. It was heard, sometimes far away in the sky, sometimes close to the ears, in this dark and lonely space, it was really creepy.
The four of them stood against the wall, with cold sweat pouring out from their foreheads, and Shan Ming was holding the rifle.
Cong Xia tremblingly said: "Yes, there is light."
In the distance, a ball of light fluttered towards them, looking like a will-o'-the-wisp from a distance, but upon closer inspection, there were faintly crossed legs under the halo, and the ringing sound came from that light source.
Shan Ming shouted in a low voice, "Who is it!"
Lingyin didn't reply, but walked straight towards them, not slow.
Shan Ming rested his index finger on the trigger, and said coldly, "I'll count to three, if you don't speak, I'll shoot."
The other party didn't respond at all, and still walked steadily.
Shan Ming didn't count a single number, and fired a shot directly at the light ball. The sound of glass shattering sounded, and the light ball went out in response. Come on, that's not a man, but a beast!
Shan tweeted: "Get down."
He pressed his body against the wall, felt the vibration every time the beast landed, judged its position, and fired several times.At the third shot, the beast, which had landed silently, slid its sharp nails against the wall and made a small sound. Shan Ming knew that his shot must have hit, but it missed the point.
He didn't have time to change the bullet, threw the gun away, and drew out the saber. His only chance was... No, he almost didn't have half a chance. The beast ran over a distance of more than 100 meters in less than three seconds. How could he stab at this speed? hit?
Before he had time to think about it, a stench of wind hit his face, which was the unique smell of the beast's mouth. Before he could raise his arm, he was knocked down by a huge force. The next second, the flame lit up in the air, and for a while The whole passage is illuminated like daylight.
Shan Ming thought it was his son who arrived in time, but it turned out that it was Cong Xia who had thrown a burning jade talisman, and a ferocious animal face like a leopard and a cat appeared in the sight of the four people. Look, it's a big golden lynx.
Zhuang Yao tremblingly said: "Impossible, can't interfere with its brain?!"
Mr. Sun's face was also extremely ugly.No matter how strong the body of the mutated animals is, their brains will not be too developed. It should be easy for them to control a beast, but they also discovered that there was a stronger electric wave interfering with them, which made them worse than falling into the mouth of a beast. fear.
Cong Xia said in his heart that my life is over.Who would have thought that they would die at the mouth of a lynx after going through so many swords and fires and defeating so many ferocious monsters?Forget it, it's better than being suffocated to death in the belly of an earthworm... probably.
The big lynx's paws pressed Shan Ming under his body, but he didn't move, probably because his brain was disturbed by too much energy, and he didn't know how to move for a while.
Shan Ming quietly clenched the dagger, locked the lynx's amber eyeballs in the darkness, ready to go.
But in the next second, the lynx let go of Shan Ming, stepped back, and let out a "grunt" from its throat.
Shan Ming was shocked, got up from the ground, and turned on the small flashlight.
Lynx turned around and walked a few steps, looking back at them.
Shan Ming frowned and said, "Is this for us to follow?"
"It seems to be." Cong Xia almost cried with joy, damn it, he saved his life again!
They had no choice but to follow the big lynx into the depths of the corridor.
Mr. Sun said in a deep voice: "Here is a brain evolution person with a higher level of evolution than me. We will see him soon."
Cong Xia's heart trembled, and a wave of fear surged up.
Lynx led them back and forth into three rotating rooms. Finally, as the walls rotated, light gradually appeared in front of them, and an open basement slowly emerged.
The four of them were shocked by the scene before them.
It is a modern laboratory, not only has electricity, but also has a lot of advanced equipment, computers, generators, test benches, liquid oxygen tanks, and even a small helicopter. Cong Xia doesn't even know what more equipment is. This laboratory is completely different from this old underground palace.
There are also a few hard-to-define multi-mutated creatures fixed on the test bed.
Everything in front of them made them speechless.
At this time, a creature came out from behind the generator. If you can barely pick the features from him, he is closer to human beings, and he is a middle-aged male in his 40s. He is about two meters tall and his body is covered with a thick layer of hair. , there are three pairs of arms on the upper body, and the three pairs of arms are not the same. One pair is thick and short, one pair is long and flexible, and the other pair is slender and nimble. Two legs are solid and powerful, and the soles of their feet are very large. They look like a six-armed ape.The most astonishing thing is that he has an incomparably huge head, which is so big that it doesn't match his body shape at all. At first, it swelled several times like a steamed bun, and there were only a few sparse hairs on the top of the head. The scalp became transparent due to swelling, and the blood vessels and nerves under the scalp were faintly visible.
The appearance of this "person" is really disgusting, and at the same time, Cong Xia felt that the puppet jade was on him.
Shan Ming said unceremoniously: "Fuck, what are you?"
Mr. Sun's Adam's apple slid up and down, staring at this "person", his eyes almost popped out.
The "person" walked over with his huge head on his head: "Teacher, I knew we would meet again."
teacher?The three looked at Mr. Sun in surprise.
Mr. Sun closed his eyes: "I didn't expect that you are still alive...or should I say 'you'."
Cong Xia said: "Mr. Sun, who is he?"
The "person" made a gesture of invitation, "Come in."
The four of them walked into the laboratory hesitantly.
The golden lynx that brought them in was six meters long and majestic. Its left leg was hit by a single bullet and was bleeding, but it didn't look serious. It lay on the ground, licking the wound, He stared at Shan Ming viciously.
Mr. Sun said in a deep voice: "Jiang Ying, since you are alive, why don't you go to me? What are you trying to do hiding here?"
Jiang Ying sat on the chair and pressed a button. Two supporting structures protruded from the back of the chair to support his head. Obviously, his neck was too tired to support the overly large head.He smiled: "Teacher, it's not that I don't want to go to you. At the beginning, I couldn't get out. Later, I learned a lot of interesting things, and I was reluctant to leave." Maybe his appearance is too weird, his The smile made people feel flustered, the three completely different pairs of arms seemed... as if they were transplanted from other people, and even a pair of arms were clearly female.
Mr. Sun tremblingly said: "Look at you, what has become of you, what is it that confuses you here?"
Jiang Ying smiled coldly: "Teacher, can't you guess it?"
Mr. Sun was at a loss for words for a moment, and his face turned pale.
"I became like this. I chose it myself. Instead of becoming a part of someone else's consciousness, I would rather become a monster and dominate myself. Uglier is ugly, but..." He pointed to the deformed brain, " This head is really useful."
"You, you devoured them."
"No." Jiang Ying's face became grim, "We devoured each other, and I won the battle for self-awareness, so they became part of me."
Mr. Sun showed a sad expression.
Zhuang Yao whispered, "Are you members of the scientific expedition team back then?"
Jiang Ying looked at Zhuang Yao with a greedy look in his eyes: "Small brain evolution, young and smart, is really enviable."
Cong Xia subconsciously stood in front of Zhuang Yao, who made him extremely frightened.
Jiang Ying smiled: "Yes, but I was not sent by the Academy of Sciences, I was transferred by the local scientific research institute to support."
Zhuang Yao said coldly: "Everyone else died during the earthquake? How did you survive?"
"We found this underground palace two days before the earthquake, so several people came down. During the earthquake, the group of people who went down to the underground palace did not die, and all the people on the mountain died."
Mr. Sun sternly said, "Where are the others? Where's Cheng Lili? Where's Cen Bo? Did you kill them?"
Jiang Yingyin smiled: "Teacher, you are always prejudiced against me. Why do you think I killed them? Cen Bo didn't come down from the beginning. I came down with Cheng Lili, a member of the Academy of Sciences, and two special forces. We were trapped after the earthquake. One special soldier died and one mutated. At first we relied on him to hunt and survive. Later, Cheng Lili and I and the people from the Academy of Sciences all evolved their brains, and after the second alienation of special soldiers, self-awareness began Fuzzy, sometimes completely forgetting about us. At that time, not only was there less and less food, but it was also possible to be eaten at any time. Every time he hunted for food, the three of us would start a fight over his brain wave interference, who Whoever wins can share his food, and everyone can't eat enough. At the same time, we realized that the creatures here can merge and evolve by devouring other species, so, hehe, we devoured each other, and finally I won, I merged With the power of an evolved human in three brain domains, I can control any creature here, even the entire mushroom forest. This is why I became like this, and it is also the price of my survival."
Mr. Sun's old face was covered with sadness: "Jiang Ying, there is no justice and law in this world, I have no right to condemn you, but what's the point of you living like this? You have a stronger brain than me, don't you Will you forget that you are a scientist? Why don't you come to me, do you know what the outside world has become, and do you know how much human beings need brain evolution!"
"Of course I know, do you think I'm hiding here as an ape? I even know your movements, I've been waiting for you, I'm looking for something, as long as I find it, I can get out of here and get everything I want .”
Mr. Sun snapped: "What do you want?"
Jiang Ying smiled coldly: "Have you seen the murals?"
"What is the meaning of that mural?"
"The teacher is so smart, can't you guess it? For more than two years, I have been exploring the mystery of the end of the world just like you, but my starting point is different from yours. I was at the core of the whole secret from the beginning. Of course, You also know a lot of things that I don't. I know why the world has become like this, what I have to do now is to find out that thing, and then change the world according to my wishes."
Mr. Sun said, "I don't know what you're talking about."
Jiang Ying laughed loudly: "Teacher, why are you pretending to be stupid? You encouraged us to come here. If you weren't old and weak and couldn't stand the bad weather, you would definitely come here by yourself. You have been looking for that thing all your life. Now it It's within your reach!"
Zhuang Yao looked at Mr. Sun silently.
Cong Xia's heart tightened, it seemed that Mr. Sun had hidden something from them.
Mr. Sun whispered: "I need it for a purpose that is definitely different from yours."
"Oh, so what do you need it for?"
"I want to stop this disaster!"
"So did you stop it?"
Mr. Sun's face turned blue.
Jiang Ying sneered: "This disaster was doomed 2000 years ago. What can you do to stop it? But now, we have the opportunity to change it."
"How do you want to change?"
Jiang Ying showed a smile of unknown meaning.
"Jiang Ying, the five-color stone is the last hope of mankind. Even if it is in front of you, you still can't take it for yourself."
Five-color stone?Cong Xia looked at Mr. Sun with a complicated expression.
Zhuang Yao said coldly: "Having said so much, what are you trying to do by luring us underground with puppet jade? Do we look like five-color stones? Five-color stones are just legendary things. You won't be due to over-evolution of the brain and appear I'm hallucinating."
Jiang Ying smiled and said: "You don't need to provoke me, since you have come here from a long distance, I will not be stingy in exchanging information with you, I can tell you what I know, and you have to answer my questions, you come from outside Come, there must be clues to the five-color stone."
Cong Xia gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, first tell us the meaning of the mural, where did this underground palace come from, what about the five-color stone, Cambrian consciousness, puppet jade, the end of the world, what is the cause of all this!"
"Don't worry, this is quite a long story. Let me talk about the underground palace first. If I hadn't devoted myself to studying here for two years, you wouldn't be able to figure out this conspiracy in another ten years."
"Where did the conspiracy start?"
Jiang Yingdao: "You can also see that this ancient city was built in the Eastern Han Dynasty. At the beginning, it was full of poisonous and turbid air. I emptied the turbid air. When I researched the turbid air, you guess I found What's interesting?"
The four listened quietly.
"According to the archeology of the bones in the ancient city and the research on the turbidity, I am sure that this is a village left over from the period when the great plague broke out at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Dozens of large and small plagues occurred during the Eastern Han Dynasty, which directly contributed to the Yellow Turban Uprising. A plague was the largest and most severe recorded in history. At that time, the total population of the country was only 5000 to [-] million, and a plague killed nearly half. At the same time, the plague was also breaking out in Europe, starting from Rome and sweeping across Europe The mainland wiped out three-quarters of the population, and the tragedy of that disaster was not much better than it is now. Are you familiar with this act of exterminating human beings?"
"Are you trying to say that it was done by the Cambrian consciousness?"
Jiang Ying smiled inscrutably, but did not answer directly: "I conducted research on the plague virus and found that it contained a small amount of Cambrian energy. I was as puzzled as you were at the time, why there was Cambrian energy in the virus, and why the Eastern Han Dynasty Villages in the Central Plains during the period would come here, and I still can’t answer the latter, but I know that it must have something to do with the five-color stone.”
"You don't know why this ancient city is here?"
Jiang Ying shook his head: "The structure of this underground palace far exceeds the level of buildings and institutions in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The people who built this city have wisdom thousands of years ahead of contemporary people." He turned on the computer, and several dilapidated murals were released on the projector. and ancient texts, including the pictures of Nuwa they saw, "These murals and texts helped me a lot, and made me finally confirm that the maker of this underground palace is Zhang Daoling, the ancestor of Taoism."
"Master Zhang? Why did he make this?"
"Everything Zhang Daoling does must be related to the five-color stone. Teacher, why don't you share what you know about the five-color stone with these children? It's rare that they trust you so much."
Mr. Sun's face was very pale.
Zhuang Yao squinted at Mr. Sun.
Mr. Sun sat down against the wall, took a deep breath, and fell into the memory: "12 years ago, my brother came to me. He is an archaeologist and explorer. The hidden river course, this dry river course has a history of at least a thousand years. He investigated along the river course and found the entrance of a cave. According to his description, the cave entrance is very small and can only barely allow one person to pass through, but the space inside is so large It was beyond imagination. There were some graphics and characters engraved in the cave that he had never seen before. Those characters had never appeared in any period of human recorded history. He was very excited at that time. History may have to be rewritten. He couldn't read the text, so he studied graphics and paintings. There were some strange-looking humans in the paintings, some were fighting, some were offering sacrifices, and in the end they all committed suicide. That part was very strange. Those paintings The body of the person who intends to express suicide is scattered in the sky and the earth. Some of them have turned into humans, some have turned into pigs, dogs, fish and shrimps. In short, it seems that everything in the world is part of the body of those people. My younger brother was alone at the time, and left after taking pictures. He came back to organize archeology and excavation. In order to protect his discovery, he didn't tell anyone, so only I knew about it... That was the last time I saw him, He set off with a whole archaeological team, and then the archaeological team disappeared, and even the bones were not found, and the people sent to search and rescue did not find any rivers or caves."
The cave, which was apparently the one they had come in, had probably corroded the murals from exposure to sunlight after the earthquake.
Mr. Sun sighed: "I was deeply concerned about his disappearance, so I began to study those photos. I read countless ancient books, and finally found some clues in the research materials of Atlantic civilization. The people of Atlantis also expressed in ancient books that a group of supreme gods in order to save human beings from being wiped out, their bodies turned into various species. Over the past ten years, I have been studying persistently, and more and more materials It shows that there are many records of such gods or prophets who transformed into all things after death. The biggest feature among them is that none of them died normally, either in battle or suicide. From a biological point of view, These myths are meant to express that modern creatures carry the genes of ancient gods and men. This is proven and reliable. The genes in our body are all passed down from ancient times, and the particles that make up our bodies have existed since ancient times Between the heaven and the earth, they may swim through every corner of the earth, and finally gather together to form you, me, and him. These particles are changing every day, so human beings have birth, old age, sickness and death. When a species dies, the particles do not It will disappear, just decompose again, and wait for the next call of fate to form other creatures. This has been confirmed in the law of conservation of matter. Therefore, the ancients 2000 years ago died, and his genes are likely to appear around you On a cat. The text in that cave includes many myths of ancient civilizations,
Everyone began to retreat one after another, and the big animals, such as Dorji and Abu, took a little effort to squeeze in.
Finally, all the living people entered the passage, and because they were worried that there would be no oxygen, they could not be directly blocked, so Song Qi blocked the entrance of the passage with layers of spider webs, and kept repairing the spider threads that were hit, but the spider threads obviously They couldn't hold it for too long, they either looked for a way out, or rushed out after resting.
They turned on the lights and wiped out the monsters that came down with them.After the basement returned to calm, they collapsed to the ground one after another, gasping for breath. Temporary safety did not make people feel at ease, and the blade of death was still on their necks.
Rong Lan shot a beam of light, and they looked at it carefully, and they were all stunned.
The size of this basement is not small, about three to four hundred square meters. The four walls are made of earthen walls. It looks very rough. There are large and small bones scattered on the ground. There are people and unknown beasts. Nothing special.
Cong Xia's face became even uglier: "The puppet jade is still deeper underground."
Liu Fengyu was surprised and said: "What? Is there an underground palace under here?"
"There must be another mechanism." Zhuang Yao jumped up from the ground: "Everyone find it separately."
Those who could still move stood up and looked for the mechanism, and a few natural force evolutionists guarded the entrance of the underground palace. With this "fortress", the defense is a hundred times easier than above.
"Tsk, it's all earthen walls." Shan Ming held a flashlight and groped as he walked.
Cong Xia, Mr. Sun and Zhuang Yao were right next to him. Cong Xia said, "Mr. Sun, let's look for it. You go and have a rest." Mr. Sun was already out of breath. It must be too much.
Mr. Sun said: "It's okay, time is precious."
Before they knew it, they had reached the corner and still found nothing.
In the dark, touching the rough earthen wall, listening to the howls, makes the scalp tingle.
"Here..." Before Zhuang Yao finished speaking, he lost weight suddenly. He let out a cry of surprise and fell straight into the darkness.
Cong Xia felt that his body was falling rapidly like a kite with a broken string. He quickly gathered energy and thickened his fat, but the image of himself falling into a meatloaf appeared in his mind. Then, the severe pain hit, his eyes went black, fainted.
"Hey, Cong Xia, wake up."
In a trance, Cong Xia felt someone slapping his face, and the action was a little rough. He was already in a daze, but now he was slapped like this, and he felt something in his head: "Ah, don't, Stop shooting, hiss..."
"Are you awake? Didn't break it?"
"Shan... Brother Shan?" Cong Xia rubbed his head, the surroundings were pitch black, and he could only tell by the sound.
"Well, the kid and Mr. Sun also fell down, and they both fainted, but they still have breath, so you heal them quickly."
"Okay..." Cong Xia wailed in pain as soon as he moved. He thickened his fat layer before landing, and with the protection of energy armor, his bones and internal organs were fine, but he still fell hard: " Damn, how high is this."
"More than ten meters away, without that energy armor, the old and the young would probably have fallen to their deaths."
Cong Xia reached out and groped: "Where is the person?"
Shan Ming turned on the small flashlight and took a photo to the side. While seeing Zhuang Yao and Mr. Sun, Cong Xia also saw half of Shan Ming's face covered in blood, which was very scary in the dark: "Brother Shan, your head... "
"It's okay, just take a look at them first."
Cong Xia touched Zhuang Yao and injected energy into his body to repair the broken leg bones and ribs.His energy armor was on the verge of collapse, while Zhuang Yao's energy armor was completely shattered.Healed Zhuang Yao's wound and put on a new armor. He then went to treat Mr. Sun. Mr. Sun's weak breathing scared him enough.
After healing everyone's injuries, Cong Xia was already sweating.
Soon, Zhuang Yao woke up. The voice that had just changed was somewhere between a child and a teenager. It was clear and pleasant. He hesitated and asked, "Did we fall from where we were just now?"
Shan Ming shook the flashlight: "It really is an underground palace, and it was dug so deep."
Cong Xia said: "Is it just us?"
"Just us."
At this time, Mr. Sun also woke up. They didn't rush to find a way out, but sat on the ground, put the flashlight in the middle, and stared at each other.
They got into a rather awkward and dangerous situation.In the past, no matter what difficulties and dangers they encountered, they had strong teammates by their side.But now, there are two brain evolutions, one is twelve or thirteen years old, and the other is over 60 years old. Apart from brain interference, Cong Xia only has the fighting level of an ordinary strength evolution. He can't even beat Shan Ming. Although he is a tough mercenary, he is still an ordinary person who has not evolved.As long as they encounter any mutant creature in the restricted area, they will be finished.Even if they don't encounter any monsters, they are underground, with no food or drink, how are they going to leave? .
Cong Xia said depressedly, "What should we do now?"
Zhuang Yao said: "Wait, they must be trying to save us."
Shan Ming said: "We have been in a coma for two hours, if they had a way, they would have come down earlier."
Mr. Sun sighed: "Xiao Dan is right, if they had a way, they wouldn't wait until now."
"Find a way to save yourself." Zhuang Yao grabbed his hand and got up, "Look at what's around."
This time, the four of them dared not separate, and stayed close to each other, looking for a way out with the faint light circle of the small flashlight.
This room is very high, but the space is not large. They walked along the wall and soon found a convex groove containing oil. These oils extracted from animals and plants were commonly used lighting supplies in the Han Dynasty. Because of their age, Has congealed into a block.
Shan Ming threw the match in, and the fat slowly ignited, illuminating a large space.
Following the light of the fire, they looked up and saw huge murals on the rough soil walls. Most of these murals had lost their color, and some were even more difficult to identify.
Cong Xia was surprised: "This is... Could it be that the painting is Nuwa mending the sky?"
Although the murals are rough and dilapidated, it can be vaguely seen that the protagonist is a woman with her hands raised to the sky, and there are many people, animals, wildfires, and monsters below.
Zhuang Yao nodded: "It's the picture of Nuwa mending the sky with five-color stones."
Nuwa mending the sky is a familiar passage in ancient mythology, so it is not surprising to see it here.
Shan Ming said: "Wait, this mural is coherent, there are two walls on the left and right."
They inspected around and found that there were murals on three sides of the basement, which seemed to be a coherent story. They looked from right to left one by one, and the first wall was painted with a male god with a hideous appearance and a man in luxurious clothes. In Doufa, the background is floods and thunderstorms, and continuing to the left, there are landslides and turbid currents swallowing the world.
Zhuang Yao said: "This painting should be about Gonggong, the god of water, and Zhuanxu, one of the five emperors, fighting for the position. After losing, he knocked down the Tianzhu Buzhou Mountain in a fit of anger. The earth is dimensionless, the four poles are ruined, the Kyushu is split, the sky is tilted to the northwest, and the earth is sinking to the southeast', it is because of this Nuwa that the five-color stones are used to patch up the sky, and these murals are indeed coherent."
"Look at the last one."
In the last mural, Nuwa has finished mending the sky, and put the last five-color stone left on the sky, and a Taoist priest riding a tiger is standing next to the five-color stone.
The murals are gone here.
Cong Xia frowned and said, "The previous ones are all recorded in ancient myths, but what does the last one mean? Who is this Taoist priest?"
Neither Mr. Sun nor Zhuang Yao spoke, and wandered back and forth between the three murals.
After watching for a long time, Zhuang Yao said: "Based on the age, appearance, and mount, this person should be Zhang Daoling, the ancestor of Taoism. It is said that when Nuwa decided to mend the sky, she searched for materials and chose the five-color soil from Tiantai Mountain, a fairy mountain in the East China Sea. The five-color soil is the sacred soil that contains the essence of yin and yang and the five elements. It absorbs the spirit of mountains and seas and gathers the energy of heaven and earth. Nuwa used the sun god fire to refine [-] five-color stones. The last piece was put back on Tiantai Mountain. The significance of this last mural is probably that Zhang Daoling came to fetch the five-color stone. There is no record in this passage, and his purpose for taking the five-color stone is also unknown.”
"Five-color stone..." Cong Xia couldn't help touching the ancient jade stuck to his stomach.But ancient jade doesn't have the characteristics of five-color stones at all, not to mention that this should be just a folk mural, which is all related to ancient myths, and his thinking jump is really not that big.
Zhuang Yao saw through his thoughts: "I intuitively feel that this underground palace can give us many answers."
Mr. Sun said: "By the way, Xiao Cong, can you still feel the puppet jade?"
Cong Xia was taken aback for a moment: "Oh, I fell stupid, well, I can't feel it now."
"Since the puppet jade can move underground, we should be able to too. There seems to be a long corridor over there, let's go outside."
The last side of the four walls is a bottomless long corridor. The long corridor is dark and gloomy, like a big mouth that can swallow people.
They found a long stone, Shan Ming took off his coat and rolled it on the stone, dug up a large piece of fat, and made a simple torch, the four of them settled down and walked deep into the corridor.
On the other end, Cheng Tianbi, Shen Changze and the others were in a state of desperation.
Shen Changze sternly said: "They went down here just now, why doesn't this agency respond now?!"
"Some mechanisms have a limit on the number of touches or time." Tang Tingzhi carefully pried open the mechanism button hidden in the earth wall with a tool, and his slender fingers followed the mechanism button to poke inside. The more he probed, the deeper his frown became.
"How about it, can you open it again?"
Tang Tingzhi stretched out his hand and said, "We have been played by someone. This mechanism has rusted to death long ago, and it can't be touched at all. The dark board that Cong Xia and the others fell is manipulated by someone."
Cheng Tianbi stared fiercely: "There is someone in here?" If it was really man-made, what was the purpose of that person?Could it be Cong Xia?Cheng Tianbi was so anxious that the top of his head was about to smoke.
"There may also be surveillance in this basement, but it's too big and the light is dark, so I can't find it."
Rong Lan said angrily: "We tore down this floor!"
Tang Tingzhi shook his head and said, "Don't mess around. This is an ancient building with an earthen structure. Any violence may cause unbearable damage to it. If we are buried alive here, more than half of us will die. Even if it needs to be demolished, let me calculate the load. "
Deng Xiao jumped up anxiously: "Then what should we do?" Abu also yelled towards the corner angrily and anxiously.
Li Dao'an said: "I can try to integrate my head into the floor, but I can only partially elementalize it, and it may not be effective."
Shen Changze said: "What are you waiting for, try it quickly."
Half of Li Dao'an turned into brown soil, fell silently on the ground, and slowly infiltrated into the soil. This process was very slow. When he finally penetrated the floor, his eyes were dark, and he shouted the names of the four people, But there were only echoes.
He tried his best to explore all the places within the range of elementalization, but returned in vain.
When everyone saw his expression, their hearts became heavier.
Cheng Tianbi slammed down on the wall: "Go back to the ground, I'll tear it down."
Shen Changze gritted his teeth and said, "I want to go down too."
Tang Tingzhi said: "Let me calculate, Officer Li, tell me the thickness of the floor and the east and west walls."
After getting the data, he squatted on the ground and thought about it for a long time, and then used a stone to draw a one-meter-square square two meters away from the corner of the wall: "Cut such a piece with a laser, and Shen Changze will go down the wall all day long."
As soon as the hole in the floor was opened, Cheng Tianbi and Shen Changze turned into wind and fire and got in.
Tang Tingzhi shouted, "Have you found anyone?"
Shen Changze said: "No, there is no one in this room at all."
"It shouldn't be, this is where they fell."
Tang Tingzhi frowned and said, "Could the room move?"
Cheng Tianbi shouted: "We found another entrance, let's go in and have a look."
"Be careful."
Cheng Tianbi and Shen Changze completely disappeared into the room. While resisting the mutated animals that kept pouring in from the passage, everyone waited anxiously...
The basement was so quiet that a needle could be heard falling, and the four of them followed suit, their hearts beating uncontrollably and rapidly.
Shan Ming said: "There is a room over here."
After groping in, a musty smell that had been dusty for a long time came to his nostrils, and Zhuang Yao coughed twice uncomfortably.
"Is there anything in it?"
"It's too dark, damn it, the grease is almost burnt out." Shan Ming trembled twice, as if he was burned.
Mr. Sun coughed twice: "This room doesn't seem very big, let's see if there is anything..."
Before the words fell, everyone suddenly heard the sound of the machine turning.
Shan Ming's eyes darkened, and he threw the three of them to the ground. The ground under his feet began to shake, and the whole space was spinning. The original door turned into a wall!
Cong Xia asked anxiously: "Where is the door, the door?"
Mr. Sun sighed: "This room can move, and the original door has been turned."
"There seems to be a new passage over there, and there is wind."
Shan Ming said angrily, "What the hell kind of place is this!"
Mr. Sun said: "Continue to go where you can go. There is nothing here, and there is no point in staying where you are."
The four had no choice but to continue walking along the new corridor. After walking not far, Cong Xia suddenly said: "I feel the puppet jade!"
"where is it?"
"On this side, the wall is blocking it, and it's only two or three hundred meters away from us!"
Zhuang Yao said: "How did the puppet jade shuttle underground? There must be a mechanism here. Damn it, it would be nice if you brought a searchlight."
The torch was quietly extinguished, and Shan Ming turned on the flashlight, only to find that the battery was also in jeopardy. In this boundless darkness, light is simply the ultimate luxury.In order to save electricity to cope with the crisis, Shan Ming turned off the light.
Cong Xia smiled wryly and said: "It's all right now, there's no food, no drink, no way out, and you can't see, even if you have all the skills, you can't get out."
"Twice..." Mr. Sun muttered.
"what?"
"The room rotated at least twice, one was when we fell, otherwise the people above would have come to save us, one was just now, these two rotations were aimed at us, it should not be a coincidence that the agency presupposed, but deliberate."
"You mean, the agency traps us on purpose?"
"Yes, and the thing that controls the mechanism is likely to carry the puppet jade."
Cong Xia shivered: "Could it be a human?"
Just when the four of them were deep in thought, the sound of bells came from the silent underground palace. It was heard, sometimes far away in the sky, sometimes close to the ears, in this dark and lonely space, it was really creepy.
The four of them stood against the wall, with cold sweat pouring out from their foreheads, and Shan Ming was holding the rifle.
Cong Xia tremblingly said: "Yes, there is light."
In the distance, a ball of light fluttered towards them, looking like a will-o'-the-wisp from a distance, but upon closer inspection, there were faintly crossed legs under the halo, and the ringing sound came from that light source.
Shan Ming shouted in a low voice, "Who is it!"
Lingyin didn't reply, but walked straight towards them, not slow.
Shan Ming rested his index finger on the trigger, and said coldly, "I'll count to three, if you don't speak, I'll shoot."
The other party didn't respond at all, and still walked steadily.
Shan Ming didn't count a single number, and fired a shot directly at the light ball. The sound of glass shattering sounded, and the light ball went out in response. Come on, that's not a man, but a beast!
Shan tweeted: "Get down."
He pressed his body against the wall, felt the vibration every time the beast landed, judged its position, and fired several times.At the third shot, the beast, which had landed silently, slid its sharp nails against the wall and made a small sound. Shan Ming knew that his shot must have hit, but it missed the point.
He didn't have time to change the bullet, threw the gun away, and drew out the saber. His only chance was... No, he almost didn't have half a chance. The beast ran over a distance of more than 100 meters in less than three seconds. How could he stab at this speed? hit?
Before he had time to think about it, a stench of wind hit his face, which was the unique smell of the beast's mouth. Before he could raise his arm, he was knocked down by a huge force. The next second, the flame lit up in the air, and for a while The whole passage is illuminated like daylight.
Shan Ming thought it was his son who arrived in time, but it turned out that it was Cong Xia who had thrown a burning jade talisman, and a ferocious animal face like a leopard and a cat appeared in the sight of the four people. Look, it's a big golden lynx.
Zhuang Yao tremblingly said: "Impossible, can't interfere with its brain?!"
Mr. Sun's face was also extremely ugly.No matter how strong the body of the mutated animals is, their brains will not be too developed. It should be easy for them to control a beast, but they also discovered that there was a stronger electric wave interfering with them, which made them worse than falling into the mouth of a beast. fear.
Cong Xia said in his heart that my life is over.Who would have thought that they would die at the mouth of a lynx after going through so many swords and fires and defeating so many ferocious monsters?Forget it, it's better than being suffocated to death in the belly of an earthworm... probably.
The big lynx's paws pressed Shan Ming under his body, but he didn't move, probably because his brain was disturbed by too much energy, and he didn't know how to move for a while.
Shan Ming quietly clenched the dagger, locked the lynx's amber eyeballs in the darkness, ready to go.
But in the next second, the lynx let go of Shan Ming, stepped back, and let out a "grunt" from its throat.
Shan Ming was shocked, got up from the ground, and turned on the small flashlight.
Lynx turned around and walked a few steps, looking back at them.
Shan Ming frowned and said, "Is this for us to follow?"
"It seems to be." Cong Xia almost cried with joy, damn it, he saved his life again!
They had no choice but to follow the big lynx into the depths of the corridor.
Mr. Sun said in a deep voice: "Here is a brain evolution person with a higher level of evolution than me. We will see him soon."
Cong Xia's heart trembled, and a wave of fear surged up.
Lynx led them back and forth into three rotating rooms. Finally, as the walls rotated, light gradually appeared in front of them, and an open basement slowly emerged.
The four of them were shocked by the scene before them.
It is a modern laboratory, not only has electricity, but also has a lot of advanced equipment, computers, generators, test benches, liquid oxygen tanks, and even a small helicopter. Cong Xia doesn't even know what more equipment is. This laboratory is completely different from this old underground palace.
There are also a few hard-to-define multi-mutated creatures fixed on the test bed.
Everything in front of them made them speechless.
At this time, a creature came out from behind the generator. If you can barely pick the features from him, he is closer to human beings, and he is a middle-aged male in his 40s. He is about two meters tall and his body is covered with a thick layer of hair. , there are three pairs of arms on the upper body, and the three pairs of arms are not the same. One pair is thick and short, one pair is long and flexible, and the other pair is slender and nimble. Two legs are solid and powerful, and the soles of their feet are very large. They look like a six-armed ape.The most astonishing thing is that he has an incomparably huge head, which is so big that it doesn't match his body shape at all. At first, it swelled several times like a steamed bun, and there were only a few sparse hairs on the top of the head. The scalp became transparent due to swelling, and the blood vessels and nerves under the scalp were faintly visible.
The appearance of this "person" is really disgusting, and at the same time, Cong Xia felt that the puppet jade was on him.
Shan Ming said unceremoniously: "Fuck, what are you?"
Mr. Sun's Adam's apple slid up and down, staring at this "person", his eyes almost popped out.
The "person" walked over with his huge head on his head: "Teacher, I knew we would meet again."
teacher?The three looked at Mr. Sun in surprise.
Mr. Sun closed his eyes: "I didn't expect that you are still alive...or should I say 'you'."
Cong Xia said: "Mr. Sun, who is he?"
The "person" made a gesture of invitation, "Come in."
The four of them walked into the laboratory hesitantly.
The golden lynx that brought them in was six meters long and majestic. Its left leg was hit by a single bullet and was bleeding, but it didn't look serious. It lay on the ground, licking the wound, He stared at Shan Ming viciously.
Mr. Sun said in a deep voice: "Jiang Ying, since you are alive, why don't you go to me? What are you trying to do hiding here?"
Jiang Ying sat on the chair and pressed a button. Two supporting structures protruded from the back of the chair to support his head. Obviously, his neck was too tired to support the overly large head.He smiled: "Teacher, it's not that I don't want to go to you. At the beginning, I couldn't get out. Later, I learned a lot of interesting things, and I was reluctant to leave." Maybe his appearance is too weird, his The smile made people feel flustered, the three completely different pairs of arms seemed... as if they were transplanted from other people, and even a pair of arms were clearly female.
Mr. Sun tremblingly said: "Look at you, what has become of you, what is it that confuses you here?"
Jiang Ying smiled coldly: "Teacher, can't you guess it?"
Mr. Sun was at a loss for words for a moment, and his face turned pale.
"I became like this. I chose it myself. Instead of becoming a part of someone else's consciousness, I would rather become a monster and dominate myself. Uglier is ugly, but..." He pointed to the deformed brain, " This head is really useful."
"You, you devoured them."
"No." Jiang Ying's face became grim, "We devoured each other, and I won the battle for self-awareness, so they became part of me."
Mr. Sun showed a sad expression.
Zhuang Yao whispered, "Are you members of the scientific expedition team back then?"
Jiang Ying looked at Zhuang Yao with a greedy look in his eyes: "Small brain evolution, young and smart, is really enviable."
Cong Xia subconsciously stood in front of Zhuang Yao, who made him extremely frightened.
Jiang Ying smiled: "Yes, but I was not sent by the Academy of Sciences, I was transferred by the local scientific research institute to support."
Zhuang Yao said coldly: "Everyone else died during the earthquake? How did you survive?"
"We found this underground palace two days before the earthquake, so several people came down. During the earthquake, the group of people who went down to the underground palace did not die, and all the people on the mountain died."
Mr. Sun sternly said, "Where are the others? Where's Cheng Lili? Where's Cen Bo? Did you kill them?"
Jiang Yingyin smiled: "Teacher, you are always prejudiced against me. Why do you think I killed them? Cen Bo didn't come down from the beginning. I came down with Cheng Lili, a member of the Academy of Sciences, and two special forces. We were trapped after the earthquake. One special soldier died and one mutated. At first we relied on him to hunt and survive. Later, Cheng Lili and I and the people from the Academy of Sciences all evolved their brains, and after the second alienation of special soldiers, self-awareness began Fuzzy, sometimes completely forgetting about us. At that time, not only was there less and less food, but it was also possible to be eaten at any time. Every time he hunted for food, the three of us would start a fight over his brain wave interference, who Whoever wins can share his food, and everyone can't eat enough. At the same time, we realized that the creatures here can merge and evolve by devouring other species, so, hehe, we devoured each other, and finally I won, I merged With the power of an evolved human in three brain domains, I can control any creature here, even the entire mushroom forest. This is why I became like this, and it is also the price of my survival."
Mr. Sun's old face was covered with sadness: "Jiang Ying, there is no justice and law in this world, I have no right to condemn you, but what's the point of you living like this? You have a stronger brain than me, don't you Will you forget that you are a scientist? Why don't you come to me, do you know what the outside world has become, and do you know how much human beings need brain evolution!"
"Of course I know, do you think I'm hiding here as an ape? I even know your movements, I've been waiting for you, I'm looking for something, as long as I find it, I can get out of here and get everything I want .”
Mr. Sun snapped: "What do you want?"
Jiang Ying smiled coldly: "Have you seen the murals?"
"What is the meaning of that mural?"
"The teacher is so smart, can't you guess it? For more than two years, I have been exploring the mystery of the end of the world just like you, but my starting point is different from yours. I was at the core of the whole secret from the beginning. Of course, You also know a lot of things that I don't. I know why the world has become like this, what I have to do now is to find out that thing, and then change the world according to my wishes."
Mr. Sun said, "I don't know what you're talking about."
Jiang Ying laughed loudly: "Teacher, why are you pretending to be stupid? You encouraged us to come here. If you weren't old and weak and couldn't stand the bad weather, you would definitely come here by yourself. You have been looking for that thing all your life. Now it It's within your reach!"
Zhuang Yao looked at Mr. Sun silently.
Cong Xia's heart tightened, it seemed that Mr. Sun had hidden something from them.
Mr. Sun whispered: "I need it for a purpose that is definitely different from yours."
"Oh, so what do you need it for?"
"I want to stop this disaster!"
"So did you stop it?"
Mr. Sun's face turned blue.
Jiang Ying sneered: "This disaster was doomed 2000 years ago. What can you do to stop it? But now, we have the opportunity to change it."
"How do you want to change?"
Jiang Ying showed a smile of unknown meaning.
"Jiang Ying, the five-color stone is the last hope of mankind. Even if it is in front of you, you still can't take it for yourself."
Five-color stone?Cong Xia looked at Mr. Sun with a complicated expression.
Zhuang Yao said coldly: "Having said so much, what are you trying to do by luring us underground with puppet jade? Do we look like five-color stones? Five-color stones are just legendary things. You won't be due to over-evolution of the brain and appear I'm hallucinating."
Jiang Ying smiled and said: "You don't need to provoke me, since you have come here from a long distance, I will not be stingy in exchanging information with you, I can tell you what I know, and you have to answer my questions, you come from outside Come, there must be clues to the five-color stone."
Cong Xia gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, first tell us the meaning of the mural, where did this underground palace come from, what about the five-color stone, Cambrian consciousness, puppet jade, the end of the world, what is the cause of all this!"
"Don't worry, this is quite a long story. Let me talk about the underground palace first. If I hadn't devoted myself to studying here for two years, you wouldn't be able to figure out this conspiracy in another ten years."
"Where did the conspiracy start?"
Jiang Yingdao: "You can also see that this ancient city was built in the Eastern Han Dynasty. At the beginning, it was full of poisonous and turbid air. I emptied the turbid air. When I researched the turbid air, you guess I found What's interesting?"
The four listened quietly.
"According to the archeology of the bones in the ancient city and the research on the turbidity, I am sure that this is a village left over from the period when the great plague broke out at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Dozens of large and small plagues occurred during the Eastern Han Dynasty, which directly contributed to the Yellow Turban Uprising. A plague was the largest and most severe recorded in history. At that time, the total population of the country was only 5000 to [-] million, and a plague killed nearly half. At the same time, the plague was also breaking out in Europe, starting from Rome and sweeping across Europe The mainland wiped out three-quarters of the population, and the tragedy of that disaster was not much better than it is now. Are you familiar with this act of exterminating human beings?"
"Are you trying to say that it was done by the Cambrian consciousness?"
Jiang Ying smiled inscrutably, but did not answer directly: "I conducted research on the plague virus and found that it contained a small amount of Cambrian energy. I was as puzzled as you were at the time, why there was Cambrian energy in the virus, and why the Eastern Han Dynasty Villages in the Central Plains during the period would come here, and I still can’t answer the latter, but I know that it must have something to do with the five-color stone.”
"You don't know why this ancient city is here?"
Jiang Ying shook his head: "The structure of this underground palace far exceeds the level of buildings and institutions in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The people who built this city have wisdom thousands of years ahead of contemporary people." He turned on the computer, and several dilapidated murals were released on the projector. and ancient texts, including the pictures of Nuwa they saw, "These murals and texts helped me a lot, and made me finally confirm that the maker of this underground palace is Zhang Daoling, the ancestor of Taoism."
"Master Zhang? Why did he make this?"
"Everything Zhang Daoling does must be related to the five-color stone. Teacher, why don't you share what you know about the five-color stone with these children? It's rare that they trust you so much."
Mr. Sun's face was very pale.
Zhuang Yao squinted at Mr. Sun.
Mr. Sun sat down against the wall, took a deep breath, and fell into the memory: "12 years ago, my brother came to me. He is an archaeologist and explorer. The hidden river course, this dry river course has a history of at least a thousand years. He investigated along the river course and found the entrance of a cave. According to his description, the cave entrance is very small and can only barely allow one person to pass through, but the space inside is so large It was beyond imagination. There were some graphics and characters engraved in the cave that he had never seen before. Those characters had never appeared in any period of human recorded history. He was very excited at that time. History may have to be rewritten. He couldn't read the text, so he studied graphics and paintings. There were some strange-looking humans in the paintings, some were fighting, some were offering sacrifices, and in the end they all committed suicide. That part was very strange. Those paintings The body of the person who intends to express suicide is scattered in the sky and the earth. Some of them have turned into humans, some have turned into pigs, dogs, fish and shrimps. In short, it seems that everything in the world is part of the body of those people. My younger brother was alone at the time, and left after taking pictures. He came back to organize archeology and excavation. In order to protect his discovery, he didn't tell anyone, so only I knew about it... That was the last time I saw him, He set off with a whole archaeological team, and then the archaeological team disappeared, and even the bones were not found, and the people sent to search and rescue did not find any rivers or caves."
The cave, which was apparently the one they had come in, had probably corroded the murals from exposure to sunlight after the earthquake.
Mr. Sun sighed: "I was deeply concerned about his disappearance, so I began to study those photos. I read countless ancient books, and finally found some clues in the research materials of Atlantic civilization. The people of Atlantis also expressed in ancient books that a group of supreme gods in order to save human beings from being wiped out, their bodies turned into various species. Over the past ten years, I have been studying persistently, and more and more materials It shows that there are many records of such gods or prophets who transformed into all things after death. The biggest feature among them is that none of them died normally, either in battle or suicide. From a biological point of view, These myths are meant to express that modern creatures carry the genes of ancient gods and men. This is proven and reliable. The genes in our body are all passed down from ancient times, and the particles that make up our bodies have existed since ancient times Between the heaven and the earth, they may swim through every corner of the earth, and finally gather together to form you, me, and him. These particles are changing every day, so human beings have birth, old age, sickness and death. When a species dies, the particles do not It will disappear, just decompose again, and wait for the next call of fate to form other creatures. This has been confirmed in the law of conservation of matter. Therefore, the ancients 2000 years ago died, and his genes are likely to appear around you On a cat. The text in that cave includes many myths of ancient civilizations,
