The forest of steles is undoubtedly dim, and the only visibility is the place illuminated by the tools in hand.
In a flash, countless stone tablets stand quietly. The words carved on the tablets are either sharp and cold or soft and elegant, but it seems that the silence of thousands of years is gradually spreading...
There is an atmosphere called loneliness and coldness.
Everyone has now deeply felt it.
Coupled with the strangeness and strangeness of the traces of Li Daochang being dragged back and the disappearance of the traces of the machine moving forward, there is an emotion called "fear", which they also feel now.
There is no cold wind, but shivering.
Standing on the edge of the wall of the Wanbei painting for a while, looking at the seemingly countless hidden ghosts and monsters inside, he hesitated.
Lin Mo used the flashlight to shine around and then upwards. The top was like a dome with jagged walls.
He said: "We should be in the inner belly of the mountain. If we don't come in, we really can't imagine that there is such an open and vast place..."
Meng Jirong: "A place like this can only be formed naturally. If it is artificially mined, it must not be on such a large scale."
Lin Mo asked: "Is there any relationship between the murals painted on the Wanbei and the murals in the main hall?"
"We can only guess before we have a conclusion. There may or may not be, but if it is related..."
Meng Jirong raised his eyes and looked deep into the forest of steles covered by darkness: "What do you think is in the forest of steles?"
Lin Mo: "Stone Egg."
Professor Zhang: "This is the most likely. Generally speaking, the stories depicted on the murals are more or less related to the owner of the tomb. If it is a portrait of a person, it can better reflect the life of the owner of the tomb."
"The murals in the hall have an exaggerated technique beyond reality. Whether it is a snake or a stone egg... there may be other meanings hidden."
"For example, there is a kind of analogy, which uses powerful enemies as various beasts, such as lions, tigers, or snakes..."
Professor Hu nodded: "According to this way of thinking, snake eggs represent a period of weakness. It is possible that the priests of this tribe discovered a small tribe and led the tribe to occupy and oppress it, so as to obtain gold and silver treasures. Gradually develop and grow, and in turn take revenge, but in the end it still fails."
"But there are murals that depict countless cattle and sheep that they will pay tribute to snakes..."
"History books will be written by victorious people, and they will naturally beautify and polish."
"So the snake is fake?"
Someone affirmed: "If it's not fake, could there really be such a big snake? And how could the snake's eggs be golden in the spring."
Many people agree: "Yes, there are really such big snakes that you are afraid to look at them, let alone keep them."
"That stone egg is likely to be a metaphor for a treasure. Otherwise, how can a stone alone kill a giant snake."
…………
Each has its own understanding, Lin Mo listened quietly with his hands behind his back.
Meng Jirong approached and asked: "What do you think? Do you also think that the stories on the murals are metaphors for people?"
Lin Mo whispered in his ear, "I think it's true, maybe there really is such a big snake."
The hot air blew into his ears, making Meng Jirong's smile deepen. He stretched out his arms to wrap around Lin Mo's waist, and bowed his head to kiss him.
Before he could move, Lin Mo was dragged out again.
Tang Yanchu hugged the person who fell into his arms tightly, without any emotion in his eyes, and looked at Meng Jirong as if another storm had been stirred up.
Meng Jirong smiled: "How long will Captain Tang hold you?"
This voice attracted others to look over in surprise.
Lin Mo supported Tang Yanchu's chest with a blushing face, stood up straight and said, "I stepped on a pit just now, and I didn't stand firm..."
After the episode, everyone packed up and moved on.
They chose a road not taken.
After walking about 30 meters forward, Tang Yanchu suddenly stopped.
Lin Mo asked from behind: "Achu, what's wrong?"
"Front..." Tang Yanchu turned his body sideways.
At the position where the flashlight shines, there is a mass of dark and shiny objects scattered under a stone tablet. It is the machine that came in first.
"Why here?! Didn't we choose another road?"
"Theoretically speaking, the road should be spreading, so we won't run into each other... We're going in the wrong direction?!"
"No, there are no signs around. We are heading in the right direction, not the way the machine goes in." Tang Yanchu frowned and said, "The only possibility is that something brought the machine here."
After he finished speaking, many people shuddered.
Tang Yanchu shook the machine with a flashlight: "The equipment is all scrapped now, and the parts have fallen off. It seems to have been damaged by external forces. If it is only a loss of signal and control, the equipment is in good condition..."
Some scientific researchers who followed exclaimed: "The parts we use are all installed with the latest technology. Needless to say, they are so strong that they will not break even if they are rolled back and forth by a truck..."
However, the machine presented in front of their eyes was a crippled patchwork.
Not to mention, when changing from one location to another, the machine can't run over by itself...
"Fuck, I have goosebumps all over my body." Someone cursed in a low voice.
At this moment, Lin Mo suddenly flashed the flashlight past the tallest stele not far away.
"What's wrong?" Zhan Wenshuang asked.
Lin Mo frowned: "Just now I felt...something was staring at us, but now it's gone."
One after another, the sense of panic that made the hairs stand on end never went away.
Xiao Fengluan suddenly said: "Mr. Lin, if something really exists, can you deal with it?"
Lin Mo turned to look at him. Ever since they entered the ground, Xiao Fengluan and Xiao Qingsi's sense of presence had been very low. They kept silent when they could not speak, and followed the team silently.
"That depends on what it is." Lin Mo said: "Most of them are a piece of cake."
Xiao Fengluan: "I believe in Mr. Lin's ability."
After speaking, he stood silently aside.
Lin Mo withdrew his eyes thoughtfully.
Everyone already regarded Lin Mo as the backbone of the entire team. Hearing what he said, they felt a little relaxed and asked what to do now.
Lin Mo: "Go on, take the talisman I gave you with you, and don't take it lightly at any time."
The crowd nodded.
I don't know how many steles passed by. The further you go inside, the distance between the steles gradually increases, and the volume is also changing, but the number is still unclear.
In the process of advancing, I can only hear the breathing of myself and the people around me, accompanied by the sound of slightly orderly footsteps, as if I have been caught in a cycle of endless loops.
In an extremely dark environment, people always panic unconsciously.
"How long do we have to go? Is this road endless?"
"What are you afraid of? I have time here. It has only been more than half an hour since I came out of Shimen."
"Why do I feel like I've been away for a long time..."
"The people who disappeared here before... Will we meet their bones?"
Professor Hu sighed: "If you meet, restrain yourself, I..."
At this moment, Professor Hu's voice suddenly changed, a little excited: "Look ahead!"
Everyone heard the words and looked.
The few stone tablets not far away are completely different from the surrounding ones. What are depicted on them are not words, but murals with a little bit of colored ink.
"It's the mural on the document!"
"We actually met each other! Hurry, hurry!"
They were visibly excited too.
There are five stone tablets carved with murals, more than three meters high, and the contents of the murals really continue the story of the hall.
They stand under the stele, looking at what is clearly the first mural.
The little Taoist priest from Xuanzhen Temple asked: "What is it talking about?"
Meng Jirong: "The last mural in the hall is about the priest taking back the stone egg, and the clan working together to kill the giant snake. The five murals here depict what happened afterwards."
"The priest thought that he had committed a serious crime. It was because of the snake eggs he brought back that the clan members almost died, and the clan was almost wiped out. So, after the snake died, he resigned from the priesthood and wanted to leave the clan."
They walked past the first one and stood under the second stele.
Lin Mo looked at the priest in the mural, wearing a dark red robe, with his hands held up, one on the left and one on the right. There was one thing respectively, one was a white stone egg, and the other was covered in gold, slightly larger than the stone egg.
He pointed and said, "That's not a snake egg, is it?"
It is very similar to the snake eggs brought back from the spring.
Someone wondered: "But isn't the snake killed? Why is there still..."
Lin Mo stroked his chin and thought, "Snake is its son?"
Meng Jirong nodded: "Probably, look at the upper left corner of the mural. This golden snake egg was burned in fire, boiled in water, or smashed with huge stones, but in the end, the snake egg was not damaged at all."
"Perhaps out of helplessness, the priest left the clan with the stone eggs and snake eggs."
Professor Zhang frowned and said: "If this is the explanation, the previous assumption that the beast is used as a metaphor for people is not valid, it doesn't make sense..."
Everyone continued to walk to the next mural with doubts.
"The third mural shows that the priest traveled across mountains and rivers to find a way to destroy the snake egg. At this time, there were two gaps in the snake egg." Meng Jirong pointed to the black lines that appeared on the snake egg.
Zhan Wenshuang: "The snake inside is probably about to break out of its shell."
"That's right, once the snake inside comes out, it will be another disaster. Seeing that the matter is imminent, the priest finally met someone who can help him solve it."
Another person finally appeared on the mural, wearing a black robe, only his back, no face at all.
The man stretched out a finger and pointed in one direction, with a look of hope on the priest's face.
"In the fourth mural, the priest walked with the man in black, but the man in black on it never showed his face. The man in black brought the priest into the belly of a mountain. He took the stone egg from the priest and placed it in a place. On the stone platform."
The fourth mural ended here, and everyone couldn't wait to go to the fifth mural.
There was a little bad premonition in my heart.
When they saw the fifth mural, everyone was obviously taken aback.
After a while, Meng Jirong's voice was heard: "After the stone egg was placed properly, the man in black waved his hand, and a golden light came out. In the middle of the mountain, countless stone tablets rose from the ground, heavily surrounding the stone egg..."
"The black vortex is drawn on the top, it should be a metaphor that entering it is like falling into a maze."
"The man in black left the snake eggs in the forest of steles, and wanted to take the priest away, but the priest refused. He thought he should make atonement, so the man in black finally left here alone."
At the bottom of the fifth mural, the priest ordered people to build a hall outside the forest of steles, and outside the stone gate, a huge snake was secretly watching.
After the main hall was built, the priest entered the Forest of Steles alone...
In the end, only a pair of huge, scarlet eyes remained.
"What, what does this mean?" Someone murmured.
Lin Mo: "It means that the snake broke out of its shell in the forest of steles. The priest knew that his end would be death, so he engraved it on the stele in the form of a mural in advance."
