Chapter 1335 Number 014 - The house is haunted (7)
"It's a different space." Ye Qing's voice answered Liu Miao's question.
Ye Qing had already picked up some heavy equipment from the diving suit and walked towards the island step by step.
Some figures appeared faintly on the island.
Liu Miao quickly followed.
As the camera swayed, a conversation between the two came.
"Is the alien space the kind in science fiction movies? Parallel world?"
"This is just a small different space. It's like building a balcony outside the original house and moving the things in the original room to the balcony. The time here should have stopped. But it seems not stable enough and is connected with the outside world. If one day, this place will be completely independent and time will start to flow..." Ye Qing did not finish his words.
The figures on the island have become clear and appear in the camera.
The dress of those people is no different from that of modern people. It is a bit inconsistent with the time node when the old man said that the island was flooded.
"Who are you?" The man in the lead was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and loose shorts. His summer dress looked similar to the Gu Mo dress that he had appeared in the camera just now, but the quality of the clothes didn't look very good and was a little white when washed.
The man speaks Mandarin with the accent of Beidu, which is still standard. There is no problem with language communication.
"We are here to find someone. Is there a kind of ghost here? "Ye Qing asked.
The camera swept around.
The men are about the same age, both in their thirties and fifties, and they all look a little older, and their real age may be younger. Their expressions are similar at the moment, all with shock and complex expressions.
Someone ran down from the island building and shouted a few times, speaking in incomprehensible dialects.
The man in charge turned his head and looked at the camera, "The temple wishes you to come in."
Ye Qing and Liu Miao followed the person without hesitation.
There is no farmland on the island. Apart from a few thatched huts, the more formal buildings are only one temple. The temple covers a very large area, and the wall encloses half of the path. However, the wall is only left with ruins, as if it has been destroyed, and it seems that it has experienced natural disasters.
The outline of the temple is very majestic. When I got close to it, I found that it was broken like the wall. Most of the house collapsed, leaving only some outlines. It was even more messy inside, with a lot of gravel and rubble remaining. Cracked stone roads and collapsed trees were everywhere. This was a very desolate scene.
As the camera entered the temple, the picture seemed to be covered with a shadow.
This is not the yin energy that belongs to the ghost, nor does it look like a curse breath. Such shadows are like dust covered on the camera, but simple dust has nothing to do with supernatural phenomena.
One hand wiped the lens, but the dust on the lens was not wiped away.
Liu Miao didn't do anything more.
As people entered the temple, the gravel was crunched and crunched.
The person who led the way led Ye Qing and Liu Miao to the main hall of the temple.
Generally speaking, this location is the main hall of Buddhist temples, and other temples and Taoist temples will also worship the main gods here.
The main hall was opened with a skylight, and the sun shone through the hole into the house, hitting a statue in the middle.
The shoulders of the statue are very wide and very large, and are ten meters tall.
But the statue has no head. There is only a broken cut on the huge neck.
The part that extends from the neck should be the arms. From this point of view, the god carved in this statue should have been a three-headed and six-arm shape. Now, the three-headed ones are gone, and four arms are missing from the six arms. The remaining two arms are two claws of different shapes, both bird claws, but if you look closely, you can still see many differences, at least not belonging to the same bird.
The camera raised high and slowly went downward to take pictures of the statue.
The body of the statue is human-shaped, with a big hole in its thick chest, and you can see the cracked wall on the other side of the statue.
The lower body of the statue is not a human form, but a platform made of hexagonal scales. This platform is also incomplete, with its edges broken and missing a circle.
"It seems that the legend of the Third Ancestor God has undergone a very thorough evolution." Ye Qing looked up at the statue, lowered his head, and suddenly spoke.
"Boss..." Liu Miao shouted in a low voice, the camera shaking, and photographed the people around him.
Those people had expressionless faces, but they moved their bodies a little uneasy, as if they were looking at Ye Qing, and as if they were looking at other things.
"The traditional four divine beasts are dragons, erectus, phoenixes, and turtles. The three ancestor gods only left the unicorn. This is rare in itself. This statue has three heads and six arms, three heads, and the three heads should be dragons, erectus, and the lower part of the body is the turtle." Ye Qing continued.
Someone walked around from behind the sculpture.
The man dressed differently from others, wearing an old-style robe, like a monk in a movie and TV series. However, he combed his hair, had long beards and eyebrows. He looked like a Taoist priest.
The man spoke, speaking Mandarin, but his accent was different from the previous man, and it was very strange.
"You are right. The Third Ancestor God should be called the Fourth Ancestor God at the beginning. Legend was that it was a very distant time when four tribes occupied the north merged into a large clan. The totems of the four tribes merged into the Fourth Ancestor God. The four tribes also united to deal with clans from the south. There are also legends that these four tribes originally migrated from the south and betrayed the four tribes of the great leader at that time. There was no record of the war at that time, only some legends were left. After the four tribes were destroyed, there were almost no legends left." Cang's voice said slowly.
The camera is aimed at this weird person.
Ye Qing also turned around to face him.
"Where is the Qilin?" Ye Qing asked.
"Die." The man shook his head, "There are also legends that four divine beasts exist. The four tribes worshiped four divine beasts. Only the leader of the tribe who worshiped Qilin was brave and designed to kill the divine beast. He drank the blood of the divine beast, ate the flesh of the divine beast, made the skin and scales of the divine beast into armor, and used the bones, teeth, and tendons of the divine beast to make swords, axes and bows and arrows, and defeated the other three tribes. He defeated the other three tribes and died, and failed to kill the other three divine beasts. This became the original form of the Three Ancestor God."
The man waved his hand and signaled Ye Qing and Liu Miao to come over.
He took the man to the broken wall next to him and wiped the dust on the wall.
Just like the useless work Liu Miao did before, such wiping did not work.
But as we approached, the camera still captured the blurred light-colored murals on the walls.
Some people are queuing up, and some are holding weapons.
I don’t know about archaeology, but from what I see and hear, such murals should have appeared at least after a brilliant civilization. Obviously, this is not a villain in ancient murals. In the army wearing clothes and uniforms, there are a few people with clear eyebrows and eyes, and the painting of armor and weapons is full of details. This is a work of art that was born after careful carving by the painter. The artist’s level is not low.
At the end, there is a statue on the fuzzy mural, with three heads and six arms, a human body on the upper body and a turtle on the lower body. Among the three heads, one is a human head, and the other two are dragon heads and phoenix heads. The remaining pigments are red, green, blue, blue and gold, and several colors. Even if they are blurred, people can imagine its original splendor.
"The murals have a history of hundreds of years. The village hired people to paint them specifically, and they spent a lot of money to maintain them every year. This temple is the ancestral property. Several villages have been in charge of this. The cost is very large, and the village is almost hollowed out by this temple. I didn't believe this. There were not many scholars in the village, but they were very well-informed about the history of the Third Ancestor God... My old man once used to be a temple blessing. I remember that he was confused before his death and told me that this painting and history were written by scholars in the city. The temple blessings were passed down from generation to generation..." The man took out a scale from his arms, "until I dug out something."
The scales are huge, and the size of an adult man with one hand. There are circles of patterns on it, which seems to be still reflecting.
"What is this?" Liu Miao's voice was full of surprise, "You wouldn't want to say that this is... the scales of the Qilin?"
"Or what could it be?" the man's voice was calm.
Ye Qing took the thing.
