Chapter 19: Primitive Weapons
Although the egg of the broken king contains the word "egg" among the four characters. In fact, it is completely different from an egg in the usual sense. There is no eggshell, it is not an ellipse, it can even be said that it has no fixed shape at all. To be more specific, it is a hazy light. This light seems to be changing colors at any time, faint and blurry. And I don't know what its specific shape is at all. After holding it in the palm of my hand, it will even leak out from between the fingers, bit by bit, like a sticky semi-solid substance.
When Lin Yinxiu found it, it was placed in a gold alms bowl. On the left side was a sun with a beard, indicating that it was a sacrifice to the Mayan supreme god Sun God, and on the right side was a sun. It depicts a feathered serpent with flapping wings, but the feathered serpent is Two-headed. According to Mayan legends, although the single-headed feathered serpent is cruel and requires living sacrifices, it can still protect the world from good weather. The two-headed feathered serpent is like the "evil dragon" in Chinese mythology. Generally, it is full of disasters, killings, and bloodshed.
The gold alms bowl was made very beautifully, and its wall was so thin that it could almost transmit light. At that time, No. 56 was full of vigilance when taking out the jar, so as soon as his five fingers gathered strength to hold the jar, the exquisite handicraft completely collapsed. Although gold is one of the most malleable metals in the world, it is difficult to imagine that the craftsmanship of the Mayans thousands of years ago could reach such a sophisticated level.
As soon as the Broken King's Egg was found, the golden avenue in front of the temple and the holy well all collapsed. Fortunately, Fang Lin watched coldly and discovered a secret passage out. At that time, the cultural level of the Mayans had developed to a considerable height, and even the calculated number of days in a year was exactly the same as now. Under such circumstances, if religion is to overwhelm science, it is absolutely impossible for it to be fooled by the nonsense of a great god like the primitive tribes. The Mayan religion was designed to win the trust of the people. Even nobles must often show "miracles". This secret passage was built privately by the Mayan high priest back then. Naturally, it was to make private preparations for the pretense of gods and ghosts before certain solemn ceremonies.
But although the location of the secret passage is said to be very secret, it must be said that the various mechanisms in this incredibly built temple are very complicated, giving people the feeling of being really overwhelmed, if ordinary people come here. I believe that even if an army is sent out, it will be difficult to break through. The most perverted mechanism is that on the narrow passage that winds upward, three round stone balls that weigh at least more than ten tons suddenly rolled down from top to bottom!
When this mechanism was activated, people happened to be halfway along the long winding upward passage, unable to retreat. The passage was filled to the brim with the size of the giant stone balls, but there were hard stone walls on the left and right sides. If Replace it with a normal person. There is absolutely no way other than turning into a pile of bloody bones and dregs, but Lin Yinxiu and No. 56 teamed up to punch a living creature from the solid stone wall next to it in a very short period of time. A big hole to hide in! Although both of them were exhausted from the sudden explosion. But listening to the "booming" sound of the rolling boulders coming from far away and then away from nearer to farther away, as if the earth was shattering, I couldn't help but have the illusion of surviving the catastrophe.
Even though some of the next mechanisms have lost their effectiveness due to disrepair, there are still a lot of them, such as poisonous water and flames. The mechanism of shooting arrow clusters indiscriminately was accepted by No. 56 in an understatement. After the two people climbed out of the secret passage, they saw the sky full of stars and moon outside, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Although the two of them didn't stay in the temple for long, No. 56, who was short of money, also got a lot of money from it. Lin Yinxiu took a rubbing and photographed a blueprint of the city in front of the altar. After looking at the map one by one, I realized that the outermost square was Thousand Pillars Square, and each pillar was made of the ashes of dead warriors mixed with building materials. And according to the records on the map. It once supported a huge dome-shaped roof. This shows the grandeur of this building.
The two stone statues that open the underground palace are called the Two Gods Stone Statues. Their function is more to echo the 9-story, 30-meter-high ladder-shaped Kukulkan Pyramid. The Mayans paid great attention to architectural patterns, and their emphasis was no less important than the ancient Feng Shui theory. Lin Yinxiu and No. 56 followed the map and went to the civilian area of the city at that time. There should not be any agencies ambushing them in this place.
There were still nearly 12 hours until the spring equinox, which was the task's 3:19 pm, and the two of them followed the route on the map and moved away from the central area where the giant lizards were entrenched in the ruins. Instead, he chose a basement in a civilian area among the ruins. Then he blocked the door with stones. After spraying insect repellent everywhere, they began to rest, but No. 56 seemed a little restless. It didn't take long for him to sneak out quietly, slipping into the darkness like a snake.
Not long after, I saw this guy come back after fighting off five or six wild beasts, including not only a jaguar, a giant python, but also three monkeys. These animals seemed to have been drowned to death alive, with their mouths and noses constantly spinning. It was foaming, but the fur was very dry. I don’t know how No. 56 did this.
Lin Yinxiu was not idle at this time. She chose a very rare tree in the rain forest outside. The local name is 𫟶Kadan. The wood is hard and full of toughness. Then she slowly cut a wooden spear with a Swiss Army knife. It is to prepare for the fierce battle that will inevitably occur tomorrow.
No. 56 did not kill the animals he brought back, because he did not want the bloody smell to spread. He dug a deep pit in a corner of the basement, buried all the blood of the prey in the pit, and then took out a bag of special white disinfectant powder from the travel bag he carried with him. After No. 56 peeled the fur of the hunted animals, he applied the powder on them and ate them alive. From this, it can be inferred that No. 56's abnormal self-healing ability obviously needs to eat a lot of food to supplement. So if you want to be hostile to him, the best way is to attack No. 56 when he is hungry.
Under Fang Lin's guidance, Lin Yinxiu came to a nearby stream. Several colorful yellow-green frogs were caught. These were the poison dart frogs that people were afraid of. Lin Yinxiu carefully tied the legs of the poison dart frogs with thin vines (this part does not secrete venom), and then used a small wooden stick to gently stimulate their backs. At this time, the poison dart frogs would secrete venom, and she smeared the venom on the newly sharpened spear head, and then made a wooden shield.
As the saying goes, a wise man will make mistakes even if he makes a thousand plans. Even Fang Lin did not expect that there would be such a big mistake in the weapon this time. In fact, the alloy titanium sword used by Lin Yinxiu was carefully crafted after thousands of selections. It is not that Lin Yinxiu did not use it to perform skills in the real world before, but it seems that now with the additional bonus of the Shura Heart, the skill power has increased greatly, causing the weapon to be unable to withstand and be dissolved, so this embarrassing situation has occurred.
…………..
The Spring Equinox is recorded in the ancient Chinese calendar as: "Three days before the Spring Equinox, the sun enters the equator." Because it is a solar term related to the sun entering the equator, and the supreme god worshipped by the Mayans is the sun god, the date of the descent of the feathered serpent god is set today. (ps: Although the Mayans and the Chinese are separated by oceans, they have many similarities, such as language, customs, divination, gambling, taboos, dream interpretation, etc. The feathered serpent god worshipped by the Mayans is also very similar to the Chinese dragon.)
The afternoon sun shone through the dark clouds. At 2:59 below, the magnificent Kukulkan Pyramid suddenly trembled slightly. Sixteen beautifully carved stone statues of feathered serpent heads slid out of the hidden chambers at the four corners of the pyramid! ! This sudden incident immediately caught Lin Yinxiu off guard.
According to the description of the inscription on the stone slab, when the sun sets to a certain angle in the west, the sun shines obliquely, and the shadow of the Kukulkan Pyramid forms a long strip of wavy like a snake body, and is connected to a feathered serpent head statue at the bottom of the stairs. As the angle of the setting sun changes, the image reflected looks like a living snake swimming. This is the miracle of the feathered serpent god descending to the earth.
The process required by the task is to put the King-breaking Egg into the feathered serpent god head statue at 3:19 pm on the spring equinox, and then hatch it after being connected together, creating the huge miracle of the feathered serpent god descending to the earth.
At this time, Lin Yinxiu faced the problem of choosing one out of n. The sixteen "feathered serpent god head statues" all looked very exquisite, and they had not been eroded by thousands of years of sun and wind. Obviously. The feathered serpent god head statue required by the task was not the one that Lin Yinxiu originally identified, so she could only choose one out of n, but which statue to put the King-breaking Egg into was a very difficult problem. If Fang Lin was here, he could naturally detect it through mental induction. Unfortunately, Fang Lin was thousands of miles away.
