Ghost Blowing Lantern II

Chapter 148 Shooting the Sun

The fat man said: "Hey, Commander Hu, what you said makes sense. Satan and the Hentian clan may really be the same thing. I heard that Satan broke up with the leader in the sky, and he took the lead and led a team to work alone. He specifically has an affair with the old man with a white beard in the sky, and the name you heard from him - Satan, must have something to do with the Dan people. Maybe he was also a craftsman who collected eggs in the sea when he was young."

Uncle Ming, Guchai, and Duo Ling were all a little confused after listening to Fatty and I's specious analysis. They didn't know what to say. Only Shirley Yang was still relatively sober. She looked around carefully with a searchlight. She suddenly I said: "Lao Hu, stop talking nonsense..." Then I raised my finger and pointed at the bronze human heads above the main hall: "The mystery of hatred is hidden on the heads of the bronze giants. Do you know that in the West, besides Enemies of God…and vampire zombies who fear the sun in the sky.”

When I saw this sea temple, I remembered the Turtle Mian Cave I had seen in Inner Mongolia more than ten years ago. I couldn't help but feel upset, so I started talking to the fat man and talking about nonsensical things, but suddenly I heard Shirley Yang talking about it. The word "hate the sky" is probably the same as the blood-sucking zombies in Western legends who hate the sun.

I looked up at the bronze human head hanging on the stone pillar. I didn’t know what Shirley Yang meant by this. I didn’t know much about vampires, but I knew that such legends were from Western religions. How could they really exist in the world? Vampire zombies exist, and Guchai has the mark of Gui Xuzhong tattooed on his back. He is obviously a descendant of the Hentian clan. He has been exposed to the sun many times on a sea ship, but nothing unusual has been seen in him.

Shirley Yang said: "I'm just giving a more intuitive example. Vampire zombies regard the sun as their mortal enemy. They exist in the west, but they may not exist in the east. The Hentian clan is probably a nation that is an enemy of the sun. Look at the complete bronze giant. They all wear fish bone crowns on their heads, and the beheaded bronze figures all have fire crow crowns on their heads. All ancient civilizations that have prospered in the world originated from huge rivers, such as the Yellow River, the Ganges, the Euphrates, and the Ya. The Mason River Basin has a great river civilization that flourished for a while. The ancestors of the Hentian family were once a branch of the Chinese Yellow River Civilization. During the Yin and Shang Dynasties and earlier times, people regarded fish as the moon and fire crows. The bronze man who is regarded as the sun and wears the fire-crow headdress is probably the incarnation of the sun, which is regarded as the mortal enemy of the Hentian clan."

The era before the Yin and Shang Dynasties was still the primitive legendary era of Hongmeng. Ever since Fatty and I started the uprising in Panjiayuan and started working as a gold-touching captain, we have come into contact with a lot of antiquities and have learned a lot about various anecdotes and legends in history. I know a lot, but in this regard, after all, I am not as good as Shirley Yang's family. I can't understand why we hate the sun. In our usual concept, rain and dew nourish the seedlings and the growth of all things depends on the sun.

Shirley Yang turned the searchlight and moved the beam slowly. We also looked over and saw that there were still many "belemnite" remains half submerged in the water in the hall. This is the fossil of an ancient marine creature that looks like a squid. , the scabbard is like an arrow cluster, and the fossils can be made into weapons. In mainland China, you can occasionally see artificially processed and polished belemnites. There is a round stone plate on the top of the palace, with a broken bronze crow cast on it. Pierced by arrow stones.

The main hall has been under the sea for too long, and many items have been corroded and rotted. However, judging from the posture maintained by the bronze giants decorated with fish bones, it seems that they were warriors with bows and arrows in the past. The bronze heads hanging on the pillars of the hall are exactly right. As their trophy, the stone plate with the fire crow mark seems to represent the sun that will be pierced by bows and arrows.

Shirley Yang waited until we saw it clearly before saying: "The main hall in Guixu Mountain records the legend of the Hentian clan's war. I didn't understand its meaning at first, but as soon as I saw the marks of the fire crow and the sun, I suddenly understood. The Hentian clan is a tribe in the legend of the ancient Yellow River civilization shooting the sun."

Uncle Ming, Fatty and I looked at each other in confusion: "Shoot the sun? Hou Yi shot the sun?" It is said that there used to be ten suns in the sky, which made the earth dry and cracked and no grass grew. The marksman Hou Yi shot down nine of them with his bow and arrow. Later, his wife Chang'e Stealing his elixir of immortality, flying into the moon palace to escape, shooting the sun, flying to the moon, and the elixir of immortality. These are all myths and legends. Even a three-year-old child should know that they are all false, but since Shirley Yang said it Come out, none of us want to refute easily, lest we expose our true colors as uneducated and incompetent. There are all kinds of wonders in the world. Maybe it was not known that there were really ten suns in the sky before.

Shirley Yang saw us all dumbfounded. Knowing that there was a misunderstanding, she said: "Where are you thinking? There are no two suns in the sky, and there are no two masters in the country. There is only one sun in the sky, and there are no two kings in the earth. I just want to say hate the sky." The clan is a nation that worships the sun-shooting totem. The so-called sun may be the god of a hostile force or the sun totem."

Some scholars now believe that the Mayan civilization in South America is very similar to the Shang and Zhou civilization, and put forward the hypothesis that the Mayans are descendants of the Chinese, because the totem statues, clothing and architecture of the two have striking similarities, but the Mayan civilization is the Yin people The idea of ​​building across the sea has not yet been recognized. The Mayans are a nation that worships the sun god, and "shooting the sun" is a legend that originated from the war in the Yellow River Basin, which is very consistent with the origin of the country that hates the sky.

In the rough coral spiral sea, this ancient country that worshiped giant arrows and boulders and once reached the pinnacle of bronze smelting technology, due to over-exploitation of dragon fire veins and rocks, led to landslides and tsunamis. All the ruins were submerged under the sea, and its remaining people were reduced to For the barbarian people living on the sea, the whale-belly cave under the sea eye should be a huge mine. The collapsed stone pillars and stone platforms may be facilities built for collecting dragon fire in ancient times. Now they are also submerged by the water of Guixu. , in the eyes of the destroyed Nanlong Sea, the sea air is chaotic and misty, and the sea water fluctuates erratically. Compared with the man-made traps in the ancient tombs, this desperate situation created by nature is even more difficult to understand. Thinking about it, there is no way to escape.

Thinking of this, I was helpless. With only two lifeboats, it was difficult to protect myself in the surging waters of Guixu. Moreover, I was short of water and food. How could I cross the stormy waves and return to Coral Temple Island? I heard the endless sound of the roaring waves outside the mountain, and it was impossible to row out to find a way out for the time being. I remembered that there was Ruan Hei's body on Uncle Ming's boat, so I decided to find a place to bury him according to his last wish.

Duo Ling also wanted to take his master's body back to Coral Temple Island for burial. I said that was not possible. The "Yanzhuan Dan" in the mouth of the deceased was indeed incorruptible, but it was only limited to Jirang. In a good land, the Feng Shui situation has good and bad conditions, and the dragon veins have the most vitality, so as to ensure the immortality of the body. When it comes to the Feng Shui dragon energy in the world, how can any place in the world be better than Guixu at the end of the "Southern Dragon"? The Nanlong earth energy that flows from Mount Emei along the river to the sea gathers here. It is the best choice to bury your master Dan Min here. Otherwise, although the mouth is full, the orifices are not blocked. The weather is so hot that it is impossible to go out at sea. In three days, it will rot and stink.

I explained the situation to Duoling and Gucai, and then looked around. The stone palace was extremely wide and deep. We had lost Kuixingpan and Si Tianyu. We were in the Sun-shooting Bronze Palace. It was difficult to identify the direction for a while. On the water After going around twice, I saw a small door on the stone wall that was submerged in water. There was a slope going up inside, and there seemed to be a small room connected to it. I paddled the water with a wooden oar, turned the bow of the boat and sailed directly over.

At this time, suddenly there were several big fish on the water surface that swam into the stone temple to avoid the sea surge, and they jumped out of the water, causing splashes. Sometimes they jumped out of the water next to the rubber boat, making everyone on the boat wet and dark. We couldn't see clearly what kind of fish they were, but we were afraid that the small boat would be capsized by a big fish, so we couldn't help but feel self-conscious and felt that it was really unsafe in the lifeboat.

In the black market of Coral Temple Island, there are all kinds of arms. Most of them are weapons and ammunition left over from the Pacific War. We also bought a batch of self-defense on the ship. At this time, the fat man picked up an American M1 carbine and pointed it at someone. After scanning the churning water surface of the big fish for a few times, I saw wisps of blood floating on the water under the beam of the searchlight. Before the dead fish surfaced with its white belly turned over, I saw several shark fins breaking through the water and approaching, biting and snatching in the water. Dead fish.

When everyone saw that there were sharks in the stone palace, they all lost their composure. They all looked forward to leaving the water as soon as possible. They hurriedly paddled, and finally entered the low stone door and passed through a small room submerged in water. The terrain in front of them suddenly became clear. When they raised their heads, The blood-red sky is visible, and the buildings in the mountain are built according to the mountain. This is a patio in the middle of the mountain, with a hill piled up in the middle. Only when you get closer can you see clearly. The hills rising in the water of the Stone Palace are all covered with clams. The shells were piled up, and most of them were submerged by the sea water. Among the piles of snail shells and clam shells, there were many leather lamps made of mermaids on the uneven wall.

We dragged the rubber boat up to Clamshell Mountain and looked at the traces of water soaking on the surrounding walls. Then we knew how much the water in Guixu rose and fell. The time it took for it to be completely submerged by sea water was not long. The water lines and chisels on the wall The carved murals are all clearly identifiable. Looking at the colorful erosion on the wall, there are scenes of ancient people killing clams to get pearls and fighting dragons and whales. It turns out that the craftsmanship of the Dan people was indeed spread from then on. The Hentian family should be regarded as The founder of egg collecting in the South China Sea.

I told everyone that the surrounding mountains and ruins blocked the surging seawater, and there was no need to worry about collapse and being buried alive here. There was no safer place than this. Let’s rest here for a few hours first, and then Guchai and I would leave from Ruan Hei's body was lifted out of the boat, and I said to Guchai and Duo Ling: "Your master is a hard-working egg farmer. He has worked hard all his life. His only hope is that after death, the body will not be fed to fish, but he can take the beauty elixir in his mouth." If he is buried safely, how about we make him a clam shell coffin and bury him in this green snail grave?"
