Dream of Tomb Raiders Notes

Chapter 180 The Village Like Banai

Banai is the village where Agui and the others live, and it is also a typical Yao village, but they have only lived there for a few days, so they have no idea of ​​the terrain of the village.When Yuncai said this, Wu Xie was really surprised: "Banai?"

"Where does it look like?" Fatty took the picture over, "Aren't all the villages here similar?"

But Yuncai shook her head and said, "I'm not talking about the house, but the entire village. The roads and fences here are exactly the same as our village."

Yuncai didn't dare to die, so she handed the picture to Agui and said, "Father, take a look."

They also rushed over immediately.

Agui looked at it, and didn't seem to understand it at first, Yunyun changed the direction of the picture, and then spoke to him in local language, he suddenly realized, scratched his head and said: "Hey! It really looks a bit like it."

They referred to the road near Agui's house, and found that the road and trend were very close to those on the map, and it was true.

"How could there be two identical villages?" Wu Xie said in surprise at this time.

Ah Ning didn't think: "Why is it impossible? The world is full of wonders." Besides, we have encountered blood corpses, forbidden women and so on.she added in her mind.

This plan depicts a village sunken under the lake, which may have been hundreds or thousands of years ago, but now it is discovered that the village at the bottom of the lake has countless similarities with a real village. Wu Xie Feeling creepy, he shivered inevitably, and his intuition told him that there might be a big problem here.

Wu Xie took a few breaths to push back the goose bumps, and then asked Yun Cai to point out all the similarities. He had to judge which similarities could not be formed due to some special and reasonable reason.

Wu Xie's face was a bit scary, Yun Cai became scared and dared not speak when he saw him so serious.

The fat man patted, telling him not to scare the little sister, and he realized that he had lost his composure.

Wu Xie is a student of architecture, so he has a good understanding of such things. After asking Yun Cai, everything from the location of the several decorative archways at the entrance of the village to the large number of bluestone roads, fences, and the arrangement of houses inside are all really amazing. similar, or exactly the same.

To cause such a situation, there is only one possibility, that is, the ancient village at the bottom of the lake and Banai were designed by the same designer.

However, how could the village be designed by a designer?The villages are all formed naturally, and all the villagers have spontaneously deployed for thousands of years to find the most suitable place to build houses and the most reasonable route, thus gradually forming the layout of roads and houses.

What Wu Xie cares most about is the high degree of similarity of the roads.Once a village is formed, especially a mountain village, the road is unlikely to change for a long time, so there is a saying of "ancient road west wind".For the roads, the villagers do most to repair them, it is impossible to remove the whole road and build a new one.

Therefore, the ancient road in Banai Village is highly similar to the road in the ancient village at the bottom of the lake, which is extremely abnormal in itself, and it can even be said to be weird.

For Wu Xie, a student of architecture, it was even more tormenting. His mind was constantly turning over all kinds of things he had seen before, but he didn't know what he was looking for.

The fat man hadn't realized how deeply Wu Xie was thinking, so he asked, "Naive, have you heard of such a thing before?"

Wu Xie shook his head and asked him not to ask, this is not simply "heard of", there are two buildings with similar structures, in history, only one person has done this kind of thing, that is Wang Zanghai.The city of Qujing he designed is exactly the same as the city of Macau, but it is a city-level category. Cities can be planned, but villages are completely different. He has never heard of two villages that are exactly the same.

Moreover, if the two villages exist, it can be said to be a spectacle, or the evil taste of a certain hidden world expert, but now, one exists, and the other sinks at the bottom of the lake.

No matter what Wu Xie told himself, don't think in a complicated direction, but his intuition always told him that what happened here was definitely not a one-liner.The pieces in his hands are just the outermost layer of the "truth" onion.

Seeing that Wu Xie didn't respond, the fat man went to ask his brother again.

The little brother didn't answer him either, as if he wasn't interested in this, and just stared at the picture in a daze.

"Hey! One by one!" The fat man looked at Mengli and Aning again, "Sister, what do you think?"

Aning shook his head: "I have no clue, I can't figure it out."

Mengli pointed at Agui and said, "Let's listen to what he has to say first."

Agui dodged and said: "We have heard that the village is not in that place, but in Yangjiao Mountain. Maybe it is true as I told the fat boss. The village below is our ancient village, and the village was not burnt down. , it was flooded, and then our ancestors went to a similar place outside, and then built a village according to the original pattern, anyway, the mountains here are similar to the mountains outside us!"

Wu Xie said to him: "Unless your ancestors have a deep knowledge of geomancy, otherwise, even if you intend to imitate, it will be difficult to imitate to this extent."

To achieve this similarity, accurate planning and measurement must be carried out before the original village was submerged. The Yao people at that time were still in the uncivilized stage, so it was impossible to have such attainments.

Yun Cai pouted: "Boss, why do you look down on Yao Min? Maybe there is such a person!"

Wu Xie smiled wryly, not because he wanted to think so, but if this was the case, then the matter would be complicated, so he replied: "Even if there is such a person, it doesn't make sense, because there is no need. Harsh, why do you have to make it the same as the previous village? The layout of this village itself does not have any special hidden meaning."

There are many villages in China built by experts. For example, there is Yuyuan Village in Zhejiang Province, which was built by Liu Bowen according to the astrology. The whole village is a huge astrolabe.But now the floor plan of this ancient village at the bottom of the lake is very unplanned. Based on Wu Xie's experience, nothing strange can be seen.

"Then what do you think?" Fatty asked, "You must have some ideas."

Indeed, Wu Xie had some conjectures, but the conjectures were useless, so he shook his head: "I can only say with certainty that this was done on purpose, and it took a lot of effort, because ordinary people can't fix it even if they want to. to this degree of similarity." What he finds most incomprehensible is that there is no local legend about such an obvious thing.

Agui has several generations of memories, and their village is also very old.That is to say, this COPY behavior occurred much earlier.But judging from some signs in the Zhangjialou, it will not be too late for the jade mine to be mined.The backflow of the lake water should be after the jade mine was mined, otherwise the mine would not be repaired.

The three events, COPY, the backflow of lake water, and the mining of jade mines are arranged in chronological order. It should be that COPY is earlier than jade mine mining, and the backflow of lake water is last.

In other words, before the jade mining, the lake did not exist.The village wasn't flooded, even if it was deserted, it was there.

Then, the locals should know that there are two identical villages.Even if one of them was flooded later, but the age is so far away, at least there will be legends.

Moreover, the radiating range of this kind of legend will be very wide, even in other villages dozens of miles away, it will inevitably spread.

Agui said that there is no legend about the stockade at the bottom of the lake.This hidden ancient village seems to be an accident, and it was completely forgotten in the progress of history.
