50. Ding Gong
No. 5 seems to be very interested in murals, but this mural is very abstract, so abstract that there are a few simple lines. Ordinary people can understand what this means. If there are not some ancient words under each mural to be studied by No. 5, I am afraid that this mural is similar to the heavenly book.
But on the other hand, Ning Meng lacked the nature of this mural. He walked in front with the black cat. If he hadn't considered waiting for the group of people behind who were unwilling to leave, he would have rushed down long ago.
And that black cat...
It is said that cat eyes can be seen, and black cats meant that they are unknown. After entering this tilted downward passage, the black cat that Ning Meng was carrying suddenly became quiet. Not to mention moving, the cat actually closed its eyes on its own initiative. It was not like being pretended to be sleeping, as if something in this passage scared it.
Jin Li was behind Ning Meng, and as for Lao Qi, he followed No. 5 with his men. He recorded all the murals along the way. Now he has left the responsibility of a recorder, and obviously he does not intend to charge forward.
"This seems to be a flashback method to depict this person's life one by one, but most of these pictures are warfare and the depiction is very chaotic. If you want to interpret it, at my level, it will take at least half a month. If something really hides in these pictures, don't think about it now."
Standing in front of a mural that was much clearer than the previous mural, No. 5 pointed at a human figure who seemed to be wearing a robe in the center of the mural and said, "This human figure obviously has a characteristic, that is, there are many water-ripped patterns all over his body, and it looks like his body is covered with luster. His figure is taller and stronger than the people around him. This makes people notice this person the first time they see this mural.
However, in this mural, it describes that many people are bowing to this person, while the rest are facing their backs and cannot see their faces at all. Only he is on the face, but his face seems to be covered with a cloud like a vortex, which is extremely blurred.
"You look at this painting, it's different from the previous style. It's like a comic that suddenly inserted into a European and American comic. It might have been added temporarily. I think, if there is any important information in these murals, it must be in this one."
The man from No. 5 is actually not old, in his thirties, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses and looking at him, but everyone who knows him knows that this guy is very sulky and belongs to the slow-tempered type. However, this guy has a wide range of knowledge about ancient culture and dare not say that he is proficient in everything, but he can say that he understands everything. He is the kind of person who uses his ability to speak.
With Lao Qi's people working with him to make records, he also saved a lot of trouble and focused on the research of murals. No. 5 itself has its own small bag, which contains stationery such as notebooks. He can write and draw from time to time, and then copied the words.
"Strange, it's not right."
On the 5th, he seemed to have discovered something. He kept comparing in front of multiple murals, and even began to measure the thickness and dimensions of each mural.
"This... is this occupying the magpie's nest? But why is there only this pair? Why is it alone? Why is it here?"
Maybe I really found something wrong. No. 5 didn't say it, but I was just muttering there alone. But others only watched the fun of the murals, but he didn't say it out, and the rest could not understand it. Since no one was urging me at this moment, everyone would just take a look, at least there were no bones and corpses here.
This passage is paved with a large number of black boulders, each with the size of a door panel, the gaps between the boulders are extremely tight, and some patterns are carved on the corners of each boulder, but these patterns are different. It seems that these boulders are deliberately distinguished through these patterns.
After the original location of the ghost pit was hidden, the passage became wider and the four carriages could be used to go straight, which seemed to have a huge effect. However, I am afraid that the murals would have to be interpreted in detail for what they were used for.
As soon as the No. 5 stopped, everyone was wandering around. Jin Li was following Ning Meng, but Ning Meng saw that the team stopped leaving. The boy grabbed the cat and squatted in the corner and insisted on pushing away the black cat's closed eyes. No matter how idle Jin Li was, he was not as powerless as Ning Meng, so he walked back and saw the situation on the No. 5.
"how's it going?"
"I found the point, but I don't know how to solve it."
On the 5th, he handed the notebook he recorded to Jin Li. Jin Li received it in his hand, but he didn't look at it, so he stared at No. 5 and waited for him to explain.
"The overall age of this channel is no longer verified. It is less than two thousand years old. Boss, don't ask me how I built this channel back then. That era is too old, and even stories are regarded as myths. You see, this should be seal characters, the predecessor of small seal characters. It should be because I'm not sure. These characters are different from the currently known seal characters, and may be earlier. They are products of the evolution of oracle bone inscriptions to seal characters. In other words, this channel is definitely not something that Sun Mauyu's tomb should have, or this is not Sun Mauyu's tomb at all."
"Although these characters have many variations, this character appears in the text under all the murals. Judging from the meaning of the characters, according to my understanding, it should be the original owner's name, at least the title, and it should be translated into Ding Gong, the tripod of the bronze tripod. Combined with the square box seen on the mural before, I thought it was a box, but now it seems to be a tripod."
"The ancients gave extremely important significance to some items that transcend the times. There are some cultural relics in our country that are permanently prohibited from being exhibited abroad, which are basically this kind of thing. This Ding Gong obtained this square tripod in countless battles, and even used it as a name. It can be seen that this thing is extraordinary. If that thing is below it, it would be a treasure."
The more I talked about it, I became more and more excited. Although there are few such things that can be taken away by private stolen, and they will be chased after being taken away, even if I find them, I will be well-known and fearless in this industry in the future. After all, if there are too many people who go to the tomb, how many people can bring out valuable treasures?
"Ding, head, Ding!"
Since the legend of Yu casting the Nine Tripods, the tripod has become a major weapon for the country, almost representing a symbol of power. The word "dai" has also been given the connotations such as "distinguished", "noble", and "grand". It can call itself the Ding Gong two thousand years ago. What kind of existence is that? At least it is a prince.
