Chapter 131 Antique Spaceship
According to the "Shui Jing Zhu", Shan Yi Mountain is "shaped like a city with a hundred miles in a radius, with gates on all sides, stone altars on it, dozens of feet long and deep valleys, and many vegetation grasses are grown. The grass does not lie down, but does not sway alone without wind."
The scenes that Gao Shang saw in front of him were exactly the same as those recorded in ancient books. From the outside of the mountain, this mountain is ordinary and can only be regarded as one of the small hills for the Jingcang Mountains with steep peaks and ridges. However, because the path up the mountain is winding and difficult to walk, it is a bit difficult to get up.
But when they came to this ridge, there was a deep valley surrounded by volcanoes. There were continuous ridges around them, and below the ridge was a circle-shaped cliff... This is what is called "a hundred miles in a radius of like a city."
"There are gates on all sides" probably refers to the entire crater ridge with a slightly lower pass here. The passes leading to the valley below are not upright cliffs but four gentle slopes, just like the corridor at the entrance of the ancient imperial tombs.
The most peculiar thing is that in the center of the valley, a platform about twenty or thirty meters high protrudes from the flat ground. This platform is the same as an oval valley, long from east to west, narrow from north to south, and looks like a narrow "fish". The entire fish body is about two hundred meters... It is exactly about "sixty feet".
The entire valley is covered with thick green plants. It doesn’t matter whether these grasses are the legendary “who does not sway but does not sway alone without wind”.
What is important is the "fish-shaped platform" in the deep valley, which brings a strong shock to Gao Shang!
This is not a stone altar at all, nor is it just a big, bare stone...
Barracuda-class II-type interstellar exploration ship!
This is an antique-level interstellar spacecraft built when the source world first began interstellar exploration!
If before that, Gao Shang thought he was the first person to visit the source world to visit the earth, then today he would have become a joke to see this interstellar spaceship from his hometown!
If there weren't people around, Gao Shang might have rushed down the gentle slope and climbed up the high "stone altar" as fast as possible, and found a way to enter the starship to explore the secrets of this ancient spacecraft.
However, it seems that this kind of thing is not suitable for now.
"This is Dongmenpo!"
Qi Laosan did not answer Gao Shang's question. He thought Gao Shang was asking where this was, so he replied casually.
"East Gate--Slope?"
Gong Shaoshan looked up at the valley bottom and around the mountain, and asked curiously: "Then... are the other three gentle slopes called Ximenpo, Nanmenpo, and Beimenpo?"
Qi Laosan chuckled and said, "Hey! Mr., have you... been here? That Sandaopo is indeed called this!"
"I guessed that!" Gong Shaoshan turned to Gao Shang and said, "It is like a city in a radius of hundreds of miles, with gates on all sides... This should be the Jianyi Mountain recorded in "Shui Jing Zhu"!"
Gao Shang nodded and said, "Lao Qi, where is the tomb you mentioned?"
The interstellar spacecraft at the bottom of the valley has been lying across the place for thousands of years. Even the records in "Shui Jing Zhu" call it a "stone altar". Gao Shang naturally doesn't have to worry about the thing being recognized by others. He then has time to come here to explore the mystery of this interstellar spacecraft, but there is no need to rush for a moment.
The ancient tomb of the ancestor Qi Laosan was the purpose of their trip. As a "buyer", Gao Shang naturally had to ask.
Qi Laosan smiled and pointed to the Dongmen slope at his feet, saying, "It's on this slope... there is a small ao in the southeast corner. Did you see it? It's there!"
Following the direction of Qi Laosan's finger, it was exactly where the valley bottom was close to the middle of Dongmensan and Nanmensansansans. From the top of the slope, they couldn't see anything, so they followed Qi Laosan and his son down the slope.
When they came to a place about twenty meters above the bottom of the valley, they had originally seen a narrow passage appearing on the gentle slope. This road was not visible on the ridge, and they could only see clearly when they walked closer.
This circular road about one meter wide was obviously not formed naturally! And when Gao Shang stood at this height, you can see that the top of the interstellar spacecraft was on par with his position. According to Gao Shang's estimate, the gully between the two is about twenty meters wide... Isn't this the width between the mooring shore of the Source World spacecraft and the berthing spacecraft?
I was thinking about this amazing coincidence in my heart. Gao Shang turned his head from time to time and observed the spaceship at the closest distance. Instead, I didn't pay much attention to the direction of his feet... After a while, I heard Qi Laosan shouting in front: "Old ancestor! A big descendant Shuigen is here to see you!"
Hearing his shout, Gao Shang turned his head and paid attention to the scenery ahead.
At this time, the road under their feet had become much wider, about three meters wide. The small hill in front of them, which was mentioned by Qi Laosan, was actually not small, about one or two hundred square meters.
The road under their feet is no longer a dirt road, but white marble shining with blue and white.
This is similar to the tomb passage in the previous photo. Gao Shang even saw a "Shi Wengzhong" lying down exactly.
However, this stone sculpture is incomplete, and can only be seen from the appearance, it is somewhat similar to Shi Wengzhong in front of the tombs of some princes and nobles.
But after Gao Shang looked at it up close, he suddenly realized that although the spiritual energy of this incomplete statue had been lost, it can be concluded from the little spiritual energy contained in it and the lines carved on the stone statue that it was a damaged and useless magic weapon!
And at the core of this magic weapon talisman array, there is a symbol of Lihuo Palace!
Before, some of the magic weapons of the ancient mi country that Gao Shang saw also had exactly the same emblem. He originally thought that the ancient mi country was the Lihuo Palace, a cultivation sect that once existed on earth.
Or this Lihuo Palace is the main sect of the ancient mi country...
But now it seems that these speculations are wrong.
Lihuo Palace should be a sect from the source world!
Although there is no sect called this name in my noble memory, it cannot be ruled out that there was indeed such a sect thousands of years ago. However, they all came to Earth with this interstellar spacecraft and established the country name "Mi".
Of course, all this is just speculation. Before there is conclusive evidence, all assumptions can only be speculation. However, the information currently known can roughly outline a basic situation.
Qi Laosan said that he was a "strange prodigal son" who sold his ancestral graves, but today he brought Gao Shang and others to "see the goods", and he also planned to worship the tomb of his ancestors. He did not say hello to others, but directly took out some sacrifices, incense, candles, paper money and other things from his backpack and offered them to the grave.
While burning the paper, he murmured to himself: "Old Ancestor! I really can't live anymore... The treasures that the Ancestor brought to the soil were buried, so it would be better to let them come out to see the light. Perhaps if you meet a destined buyer, you can still get some spiritual energy. This is also your merit for you..."
Qi Laosan kowtowed and burned paper in front of the grave, but his son just stood by and watched without saying a word. He didn't even do anything to help.
"Xiao Qi, this is also the tomb of your ancestors! Don't you kowtow and apologize to the ancestor with your father?" Gao Shang said to him with a smile.
When Gao Shang said this, the face of the "Qi family's eldest son and grandson" suddenly became a little embarrassed. The black and blue birthmark on his face trembled due to convulsions, and his eyes that were filled with fierce light made him look a little hideous.
"Okay, OK! I've worshipped all..." At this moment, Qi Laosan interrupted and changed the embarrassing topic.
After cleaning up for a while, he asked with a shy face: "Mr. Gao, Lao Wan... Look at this grave I have brought you all here. When will we trade?"
If it weren't for what he saw with his own eyes, Gao Shang wouldn't believe that there was such a shameless and hypocritical person in this world. He just turned in incense, kowtow, burned paper and apologized for his ancestors, but in a blink of an eye, he talked directly to the buyer about selling the tomb with the ancestral tomb.
"We have arrived at the place, but we have to first investigate and understand the shape and specifications of the tomb, and then estimate the number of burial objects in the tomb... Also, have this tomb been stolen before? All of these must be investigated one by one, right?" Gong Shaoshan sighed when he heard his words.
Wan Jinshan nodded and echoed: "Yes! Lao Qi, don't be anxious! Let Mr. Gong inspect the goods first, this is also a rule!"
"Okay, okay! You test it, test it... You have to grasp the time, we have to hurry back, or we have to go back..." Qi Laosan exchanged glances with his "son", waved his hand impatiently, and did not forget to remind him of "time" when he was about to come.
Gong Shaoshan stood in front of the tomb and looked around, nodded and said, "The distance is low and the near is high. There is a valley in front and a hill behind. This is the place where the dragon hides... It is indeed a great auspicious cave contained in the geography book."
Gao Shang smiled and pointed to the left and said, "The dragon from there is like a galloping horse, falling from the sky..."
He turned around and pointed to the right and said, "The dragon came over there as a powerful aura, with lush grass and high trees. This is the burial place for the founding kings and princes... Gong Lao, this should be the place where Mizi is buried!"
Hearing Gao Shang's words, Gong Shaoshan smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Gao, you have also studied geoscience!"
"Haha! I'm just hearing people say, this... Mr. Gong, since that's the case! That should be right!" Gao Shang nodded and confirmed that the cemetery was indeed the Mizu Tomb they speculated.
As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Laosan's "son" immediately interrupted, "Since you have seen it, let's bring the money first!"
"Don't hurry up on money!"
Chapter completed!
