Treasure Hunter in the City

Chapter 239: Amazing discovery

The Dragon Claw Team kept advancing along the footprints on the ground, and the seventh team led by Matthew did not follow it for some reason.

Half an hour later, Dragon Claw Team came to the front of a collapsed city gate.

The width of this gate is 20 meters high, and the height is impossible to guess.

The algae on the huge stone block of a city gate has been cleared, and there seems to be some strange writing on it.

"What's the word on it? It doesn't seem to be English." Zhou Hongyu ran over and looked at it and asked.

When Wang Zheng saw this, he smiled and said, "Hongyu, have you forgotten that there is an archaeologist among us?"

Zhou Hongyu was taken aback when he heard the words, and then immediately looked at Sima Liang.

He almost forgot that Sima Liang is not only a survival expert, but also an archaeologist. He has the most say in this ancient text.

"Brother Sima, come and see what is written on it."

Sima Liang didn't decline when he heard the words. He has covered most of the words in the natural world. Although he can't say that he knows all of them, he can at least tell which kind of words are.

But then, when Sima Liang walked over to read the text on the boulder, he was stunned.

He didn't even recognize the words above!

Sima Liang closed his eyes and thought hard. He felt that he might have missed something. He didn't recognize the words, but there was a vague impression in his mind.

He seemed to have seen similar written records in an ancient book, but it was just too long a time. Now he can't remember that he has seen it there.

As time passed, everyone was quiet and did not disturb Sima Liang's thinking.

Snapped!

Suddenly, Sima Liang slapped his thigh suddenly, and said happily, "I thought I saw it somewhere!"

"Oh?"

Everyone's eyes lit up, waiting for Sima Liang's following.

"I once saw this kind of text in a book. It was 20 years ago. I just went to high school. By an occasional opportunity, I found a book "Da Xizhou: The World Before the Flood" in my grandfather's collection. , Written by U.S. native Connery in 1882, this book once mentioned this kind of text, as well as speculation about a disappearing continent."

"In the book, Connelly collects seemingly unrelated fragmentary data from various knowledge fields such as archeology, oceanography, linguistics, history, mythology, ethnography, zoology, botany, etc., organizes them, and integrates them. , Established an incisive and unique complex inference."

"According to Connelly's research insights, he hypothesized that a missing continent was located on a continent west of the Strait of Gibraltar surrounded by water. A continuous series of small islands and ridges were like bridges, connecting the continent into the eastern hemisphere and the American continent. It also extends to Peru and the Mississippi Valley, east to the Mediterranean, including Egypt, and north to Ireland. In terms of economy and culture, it may also have contact with ancient India and ancient China."

"Connery said that the mainland is composed of three races. The most developed culture is people with small bones and reddish-brown skin, a bit like the Indians, Berbers or Egyptians in Central America today. The second is the Bible. The descendants of Shem, the son of Noah, may be yellow or Ulla Altaic. The third type is the tallest, white-skinned, similar to today’s Greeks, Scandinavians or Celts. Three races Living together, competing for power and profit, influencing each other, creating each other, and creating an advanced bronze culture."

"Back then, when this book was published, it attracted the attention of the world. Countless archaeologists went to search for the disappearing continent, but in the end, no one found even a trace. As time passed, the popularity of this book slowed down. Slow down."

After listening to Sima Liang's words, everyone was stunned. Unexpectedly, someone knew about the existence of Daxizhou a hundred and forty years ago, and also accurately calculated his location.

"It's incredible. If it weren't for the technology that was too backward for humans to search the deep sea, I'm afraid that Daxizhou has been discovered." Fang Yun exclaimed.

"Yes, this Connery is really an amazing archaeologist." Wang Zhengyi also sighed.

Sima Liang was taken aback when he heard what Wang Zhengyi said, but he wanted to say something but stopped.

"Sima Liang, do you have anything to say?" Wang Zheng wondered when he saw Sima Liang's expression.

"Um..., no, no." Sima Liang said unnaturally with a thankful expression.

When Wang Zheng heard the words, he nodded and stopped talking, but Yin Tian laughed.

"Hehe, Brother Wang, Brother Sima is saving you face."

"Oh? What's going on, there is nothing we can't say in front of our brothers, Sima Liang, tell me quickly, see what kind of bear you hold back." Wang Zheng scolded with a smile.

Sima Liang's face was a little embarrassed, since Wang Zhengyi said that, he had nothing to hide.

"Captain, Connery is not an archaeologist, nor a professional scientist, explorer, or historian. In fact, he is a politician. He was the Lieutenant Governor of Minnesota and was later elected to Congress."

"amount……"

Wang Zhengyi's face blushed, knowing that he was making a joke, but this Connery was too awesome, a politician actually did something that not so many scholars and experts could do.

Suddenly, Wang Zheng suddenly looked in Yin Tian's direction, as if he had found something wrong.

"Yin Tian, ​​do you know Connery too?"

"Yes, I have read that book too." Yin Tian nodded and admitted.

In college time, he had read all the books in the school library, and the book that Connery wrote about the existence of Daxizhou happened to be read. He knew that it was even more detailed than Sima Liang.

"Actually, I have not only read that book, I also know the words on it!" Yin Tian paused and continued.

"what?!"

"Really?"

"how can that be……"

Everyone was really shocked this time, and each of them was full of surprise. They didn't expect Yin Tian to know the words that Sima Liang didn't know.

"Yin Tian, ​​please tell me, I am desperate to know what is written on it." Sima Liang walked to Yin Tian and said excitedly.

As an avid archaeologist~www.wuxiaspot.com~ he wants to know what the words above mean.

With everyone's urgent gaze, Yin Tian pointed to the text above and said.

"Look, everyone. Actually, this kind of text has some wonderful connection with Greek letters, or a one-to-one correspondence. Except for the difference in grammar and pronunciation, everything else is very similar."

"This word is equivalent to the Greek alphabet, this is t, this is λ, this is a...this is, putting them together is tλaνtνσo. This string of letters was once translated into English."

"If he were translated into Chinese, it would be called'Atlantis'!"

when!

The gun in Hu Hai's hand fell to the ground, but everyone else was like a sculpture, without any reaction.

Oh my! It turned out to be Atlantis!

The mysterious ancient country in myths and legends actually exists!
