The whole valley is full of squid with upturned bellies, which makes people feel scalp numb after looking at it for a long time. Lezheng carp remembered the strange lines on the belly of the squid that he saw the day before, so he suppressed his disgust and squatted down to take a closer look. Looking at a squid turning its belly and spitting bubbles at the feet, as expected, there is also a white line on the belly of this fish, but I don’t know if it is because the light in the valley is more intense today, this line looks darker. It is much more conspicuous than the one from the day before yesterday. Lezheng Li is not sure whether the lines seen twice are exactly the same, but the trends are probably similar.

He communicated with Yin Ranyi and Guo Xuan, and they stopped looking at each other because they knew each other well. Guo Xuan asked Yin Ranyi and Le Zhengli to take the fish-shaped stone sculpture first because he wanted to leave the people in the special department to deal with the aftermath. leave first.

After returning to the hotel, the two ran into Xia Ming and the three of them head-on. Wei Yihong was poking his phone with his head down. When he looked up and saw Le Zhengli and the two of them, he smiled: "Yo, it's just in time to come back, and it saved me the phone bill."

Xia Ming looked puzzled at the way Yin Ran was leaving behind a hand full of yellow mud, and asked curiously, "You two went up the mountain to play with mud?"

Le Zhengli shook his head: "You just went to play in the mud. What are you three going to do?"

Wei Yihong put the phone back into his backpack and said, "Didn't you just receive an invitation from the museum to see the big rock unearthed on the mountain? I knocked on the door just now and saw no one. We thought you two were on a date."

"Get out, you just went on a date." Le Zhengli replied with a smile, and then dragged Yin Ranyi to run upstairs: "Wait for us for a minute, come down immediately."

Yin Ranyi went back to the room and took out the stone sculpture and put it in his bag. Le Zhengli tidied it up and saw Yin Ranyi half squatting beside the bed, as if he was thinking about whether to tuck the stone sculpture under the bed.

"Throw it in." Le Zhengli walked over and lifted the quilt cover and looked under the bed, "Put it in a little bit, leaning against the head of the bed."

Yin Ranyi nodded, and threw the stone sculpture in with all his strength. The weight of the stone object hit the wooden floor with a dull sound. Le Zhengli turned on the flashlight again and looked at it, then put down the bed curtain and stood up straight. Body: "Let's go, let's go to the museum."

Because they were told that the running water on Xinglong Mountain had been diverted again, everyone felt a lot more relaxed, and when they went to the museum, they were a little more relaxed as if they were just looking for a novelty, but they remembered that they still had work, and they were still Bring all the equipment and drive to the museum.

The stone pillar transported from the Xinglong Mountain is now standing in the center of the museum. The square transparent glass cover completely covers the stone pillar, and there is a follow-up light at each of the four corners. The bright light dyes the white stone pillar. Warm yellow.

The previous understanding of this stone pillar was from the video and the photos at the scene. Now that the whole picture is really seen, everyone is shocked for a moment. The stone pillar is about five meters high and about [-] centimeters in diameter. On the pillar, the python's head is facing down, and the eyes are inlaid with some kind of material. It is as black as lacquer, and it is the only strange color on the pure white stone pillar.

The narrator wearing glasses slanted his right hand over the stone pillar, and explained in front of the camera at a leisurely pace: "As you can see, the boa constrictor is looking down at all living beings. In fact, this one We can also see the intention in similar Buddhist and Taoist sculptures. Bodhisattvas and gods all have lowered eyebrows and lowered eyes. We found this stone pillar, so we temporarily ruled out that it is something like a "huabiao" before the ancient building. At present, it is speculated that it may be a sacrificial object in a certain period in Yuzhong County in ancient times."

Wei Yihong looked up for a moment, then pointed to the photo on the exhibition shelf and asked the casual commentator, "Excuse me, what is on the head of this big snake? Or is it not a python?"

The commentator on the side adjusted his glasses, "We have carefully observed that there should be something like fish fins on the top of the giant python statue's head. There is no peculiarity, so we guess at present, this may be such an image created by the ancients mixing pythons and other fishes when carving, hoping to create an image that meets their needs. God', but it does not rule out that snakes with this shape did exist in ancient times, but they should have been extinct. If relevant fossils can be found, it can provide some evidence for our guess." Speaking of this, the narrator Nodding heavily: "We will definitely be able to find out the secret!"

Before Wei Yihong could answer, Lezheng Li shuddered suddenly. What fossils did this group of researchers want to find?If they knew that Yin Ranyi was the boa constrictor on the stone pillar, would they still have to capture him for live research?

The more he thought about it, the more frightening he became. The scenes of dissecting aliens in the movie were revolving in his mind one after another, and he subconsciously moved a few steps to the side and stood beside Yin Ranyi.

The latter was originally staring intently at the picture in the camera with a tripod on. Seeing that Le Zhengli suddenly walked away by himself, he turned his head to look at him, and said calmly: "You are out of the camera."

If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, Lezheng Li really wanted to reach out and slap him. Is it so important for a small editor to be on camera or not? "Don't look at me, look at them."

Yin Ranyi let out a "huh" and turned his gaze back.

Others chatted with the narrator about the anecdotes of various places of interest in Xinglong Mountain, but Lezheng Li's eyes were locked on the stone pillar and never moved away. The giant python's black eyes reflected the lights in the museum, flickering as if they had vitality After staring at it for a long time, Lezheng Li almost thought that the giant python had come to life and was staring at something intently.

looking at something...

His heart was shocked, and he asked Yin Ranyi beside him in a low voice: "Is that fish sculpture a completely independent piece? When you took it out, did you feel that it was torn from something?"

Yin Ranyi frowned, thought about it carefully, and said with certainty: "It's a separate piece."

Lezheng Li swallowed his saliva, pointed at the tall stone pillar in front of him with a small arc, and said in a low voice: "I thought about the approximate location of these two things... Tell me, will that stone sculpture be the same as this pillar? Together? Isn't this boa constrictor looking at all living beings, but actually... looking at that fish?"
