Chapter 280 Like a Lighthouse
Fang Hong used the panoramic shooting mode to clearly see the appearance of the temple.

Temples generally have two floors. The first floor is filled with sculptures, including vampires, jaguars, and sun god statues. The second floor has just started to be built, and an empire collapsed. Everyone is running for their lives and leaving.

Famine ravaged the land, and the Mayans abandoned civilization and returned to the mountains.

The second floor of this temple is the evidence, which happens to be a product of the period between 1400-1500, which is also the time when the last wave of Mayans entered the jungle.

It would take two months to excavate the entire temple, and three months to empty the soil inside the first layer, which is already the speed of modernization. If it was the 70s, it would have taken three years.

But just digging one side of the outer wall, or digging a hole in the ground, only takes one day.

"Dig from here, yes, here, give up the position you just dug, there are broken rocks below."

"Huh?" The white scientist in front of him looked up: "How do you know this is a broken stone?"

Fang Hong looked up: "Give me the shovel."

A white female scientist about 30 years old handed Fang Hong the shovel.

Fang Hong pointed the shovel at the ground, stabbed it down hard, stepped on the shovel, and lifted a large piece of soil. Sure enough, there was no stone behind two consecutive stones.

"This is a second-story building. The second floor has not been built yet, so here is a broken rock. If we excavate directly from this position, we should be able to see the door of this building. We can inspect the interior first without digging the outside. "

The white female scientist turned around and spread her hands: "Who is this buddy?"

Houston: "Excavation expert, Doug, listen to him."

"Dog?"

Doug turned around: "Yes, Doug."

"Dog."

Doug wondered, "Is there anything special about my name?"

"Nothing special, you remind me of a cute animal."

Doug understood, and raised his middle finger: "It's not funny at all."

Fang Hong stayed by the side all the time. Two hours later, Fang Hong stepped forward and said, "Young digger, Gouzi, lightly, lightly, there is something."

Doug broke down completely: "What?" With his common sense of investigation, he couldn't see anything here, so she was desperate.

"Brother Gun, did you come here by chance? Did you want to see or find something?"

"Brother Gun, can you take them away after you find them?"

"If you don't take it away, I'll take a look."

The work progress slowed down because something actually happened.

It is indeed a mask stone carving.

However, Houston's first judgment surprised Fang Hong, because Houston called the sun god mask instead of the vampire mask.

That's funny, because this thing has two huge fangs, the sun god?
"As far as I know, there is no sun god in Mayan mythology."

Houston: "No, by Helios I mean the sky god Itsumner."

"Are you sure it's Itsumner? No way, Itsumner has no teeth."

Houston nodded: "I know, this is It Sumner's second form."

Legend has it that Itsumner has two forms, one of which is an old man with a toothless beard and white cheeks, and the second image is a lizard body, that is, a dragon-shaped body.

"It's just a mask, without a body, you can't be sure that he is the god Itsumner." Fang Hong was serious.

Houston nodded: "You are right. Although this temple should be the Night Sun Temple built later, it is not necessarily Itsumner himself, but we can see other things."

This mask, suspected to be the sun god, was crimson in color, so Fang Hong thought it was a vampire mask.

Houston guided Doug and his team to continue digging, but it was lunch time, and everyone had to eat lunch first.

A light meal, followed by excavation.

"In the jungle of the [-]th century, the Night Sun Temple is like a landmark building, a lighthouse. Although the pyramid is taller, the pyramid is in the valley. The Sun Temple faces east, like a red lighthouse. This red mask can be seen from far, far away."

Houston was right, the jungle was so low that the buildings seemed tall.

As the excavation continued, the wall behind the vampire mask was unearthed, revealing a picture that had been buried underground for more than 300 years.

A fiery red, hideous figure, surrounded by a ring of fire, looms in the sky.

Houston: "It's a vampire."

"WTF?"

This is Fang Hong's curse: "You tell me that the one with fangs is the legendary toothless god, and you tell me that the image of a sun is a vampire?"

The reason why Fang Hong wants to argue with Houston on this is because it involves a very important matter.

This very important thing is that when Fang Hong was in junior high school, he argued with a classmate about a picture of Maya, a head of a god. Fang Hong said it was a vampire, and the classmate said it was a god.

Now, Fang Hong has become an expert in various middle schools. Of course, he has to prove that he is right. This kind of thing can be remembered for a lifetime. Although it is useless, it is worth fighting for.

Houston was silent for a moment: "You can't make me say that this ugly image is a god, and this boxy mask is a vampire."

"What's wrong, the image of the sun is the sun god himself, and the one with fangs is the vampire. The god can be alien, but the vampire must be human, because the vampires in this land are rumored to be the incarnation of cannibals. Since he is a cannibal, he is also a human being, so he should look like a human being."

Houston didn't know what to say on the subject.The gods all over the world have square faces. To say that the gods in an attractive civilization like Maya are aliens...

Fang Hong: "I stick to my point of view. If you stick to your point of view, I will send the article to National Geographic."

Houston was silent, not knowing what to say.

"These are things we can't guess, and I promise it's a big find, and you don't want National Geographic's 2012 Top [-] Discoveries Mayan Night Sun Temple to have my name on it instead of yours. You extrapolate it all from other myths around the world, I extrapolate it all from Maya itself, which one is closer to the truth you should know."

Houston gritted his teeth: "You are really difficult to deal with, but this temple was originally discovered by you."

Fang Hong stood up and lit a cigarette: "You can write couplets and discoveries."

Fang Hong pointed to the temple: "A temple with a history of 600 years, do you know what it means?"

"what?"

"In earlier Mayan records and Mayan murals, the Mayan calendar was inferred to end in 2012. It is rumored that 2012 is the end of the Mayan inference, but this temple was built more than 500 years ago. The written records and The calendar must have been thousands of years past 2012, which is a big discovery, I just discovered the temple, you discovered the calendar."

"I found out... you clearly guessed it."

"Guessing is not the same as discovering."

"Well, you convinced me, I will write in the report that our team contacted you and found the temple, but the archaeological content of the things inside will be my team's discovery, and I respect your one, This is a vampire mask, this mural is of the sun god."

Fang Hong stretched out his hand: "Happy cooperation."

Houston frowned: "Why do you have to convince me that this is a vampire mask?"

"Because I always believed I was right, I grew up thinking it was a vampire mask."

At this moment, Fang Hong is secretly happy, hahaha, I am still smart, this is the vampire mask.Moreover, no one has come to expose his secretiveness. Even the object of the argument is a classmate who has lost contact with him. Maybe the other party has long forgotten.

But so what, science can have multiple interpretations, but archaeology should only have one answer.

Hundreds of years ago, a group of Mayans in the woods suddenly saw another group of people, and then they were attacked, and the other party brutally sucked blood from the bleeding wounds of Mayan warriors, and then they portrayed their image, Mayan vampires.

Cannibals suck blood before eating, then smash people's heads with stones, eat the meat on the head, and finally enjoy the big meal.

　"Doomsday Crazy 1999": Pluto, which is the size of Jupiter and a thousand times the mass of the Earth, runs silently in its orbit, and a ray of light shoots out in the distant galaxy. "Star Destroyer!" "Activate the gravitational equipment and change direction!" "Boom!" After a loud bang, the huge Pluto changed from a planet a thousand times larger than the Earth to a Kuibo-dwarf planet belt.
