Chapter 180 How to break the knot
Chapter 180 How to break the knot
"Don't be so surprised, you are not the only one who can see these." Laura said as if she had expected it. The movements of her hands did not stop, and she started to record around the cave at the entrance of the ruins. "Interesting... this should be The story of a certain mythical figure from your ancient Yan Kingdom..."
"Is Miss Laura's father also an assassin?" Chen Yan asked curiously.
"I don't know. I only know that my father was killed by the Holy Trinity." Laura mumbled while biting the holder of the carbon pen and kept writing notes. "I went to Yamatai Island to find out the cause of my father's death. That experience awakened my ability to see the essence of things clearly, and I also understood the truth of this world."
"Myths are real, Mr. Chen Yan."
After recording all the contents of the murals here, Laura handed the notebook to Chen Yan. Chen Yan took the notebook and looked at it, and couldn't help but sigh, he is indeed a professional.
Within the red hidden information are some fragmented information. It can be seen from the details of similar hairstyles or accessories that the big stick figure in the mural is actually a woman. She is five to ten times larger than the stick figure. She should be the owner of this Isu ruins. . And the circle hugged by two gecko wheels should actually be a mirror.
In the rest of the content, the big stickman gave items to the little stickman, such as paper, turtle shells, and even objects that looked like straws.
On the mural closest to the maze, a big stick figure stands in the middle, with countless small stick figures behind him, as well as large wavy symbols, as if he is painting objects such as fog or clouds.
Laura's analysis was very detailed, but she was not from the Yan Kingdom after all, and the Yan Kingdom scientific expedition team had not yet fully sorted out the reference materials for the ruins here. Laura was not familiar with some of the ancient myths and legends of the Yan Kingdom, so she did not There are ways to deduce who the female god in these murals is.
In fact, before Chen Yan came to this world, the game company that used potatoes as servers was already developing a game called "Assassin's Creed: Codename Jade". At that time, Chen Yan was thinking that since there is an Isu civilization in both Europe and the United States, , then in the world view of "Assassin's Creed", perhaps the mythical characters of the Yan Kingdom may also be a branch of the Isu civilization. After coming to this world, they have experienced so many things. The Isu [Xingtian] genes that Tang Wei and the others possess have actually revealed that the contents of ancient books such as "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" can be directly used in this world with the sentence "Isu technology is shocking." "To explain forcefully.
After combining the characteristics summarized by Laura and comparing his understanding of the myths and legends of the Yan Kingdom, Chen Yan seemed to have the answer in his mind.
There are actually many female gods in the native Taoism of the Yan Kingdom, and the one on the mural is most likely the goddess who lives in the "Kunlun Qiu" west of the Central Plains.
Huang Di was given the art of Xuanzi to defeat Chi You, and Emperor Shun was given a jade ring and a map of China to expand the territory of China. Later, Emperor Shun was given a musical instrument, a white jade pipe, which he blew to harmonize the eight winds. Her story is recorded in ancient books such as The Classic of Mountains and Seas. Even in Chen Yan's modern era, her second-generation content often appears in those online literature.
She is the Queen Mother of the West.
"It's time to go." Chen Yan said solemnly.
Laura put away the notebook, and the two of them immediately came to the entrance of the maze. Chen Yan clicked a few times on the hidden sword, and the nano-suit on his body was decomposed and reorganized. A pair of small searchlights were generated on his shoulders, and he stepped into the entrance of the maze at the lead.
-------------------------------------
"Oh, I hope you two are safe."
Mei Wenbin said worriedly outside the ruins. Just after Chen Yan entered CNYS-013, the receptionist of the scientific expedition team informed him that the consultant was missing.
When he was anxiously reporting to the top brass of the fraternity, the top surnamed Yue seemed to have expected it and just told them to do what they should do. He said with great certainty that Chen Yan would bring the missing members and Miss Laura. return.
It’s as sure as knowing the future.
-------------------------------------
The passage that gradually became wider made Chen Yan slightly relieved. Ever since he entered the maze, the [Demon Eye of Telepathy] has been in an open state. Channels of telekinesis were detecting the surrounding environment like ultrasonic waves. However, the strange thing is that , when Chen Yan's telekinesis touched the wall of the ruins, it sank directly into the wall without any sluggishness.
I thought it was an illusion, but when Chen Yan touched the wall of the maze, what he touched was a cold and real wall.
"Ding! Release the main mission: The Land of Peach Blossoms"
"Task requirement: Uncover the secret of the [CNYS-013] ruins."
"Time limit: None."
"Reward: 5000 ultimate points.\u0026*...!\u0026*"
"Failure penalty: None."
"Task description: Be careful, there may be living Isu ancestors here! @#¥%..."
The sound of the system was accompanied by a burst of noise.
"Sister Ka? Your voice is intermittent?" Chen Yan asked in his mind, "What happened?!"
"..."
no respond.
Kassandra's voice only sounded when the system mission was released. Then Chen Yan didn't respond no matter how much he shouted. It was different from the past situation. Since entering this ruins, even the system and Kassandra seemed to be affected. had an impact. Except that the system space can still be used, Chen Yan can hardly feel the existence of his system.
Chen Yan frowned, feeling uneasy in his heart. He punched the wall, leaving a spiderweb-like depression.
"What's wrong?" Laura was startled by the sudden noise.
"It's nothing..." Chen Yan loosened his clenched fists and said worriedly, "I have an ominous premonition."
Chen Yan also thought about using the rope hook gun to jump directly to the top of the maze to find the exit, but the height of the wall made it impossible to reach the top even with the rope hook gun, so Chen Yan had to give up this idea.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Chen, you are too strong. You smashed a hole in the wall..." Laura looked at the hole left by Chen Yan on the wall in shock. This is really something a human can do. Something happened?
"Trap...?" Chen Yan seemed to suddenly think of something. He looked at the propulsion blade Heidisi hanging on his waist and smiled slightly. "Yes."
"Ah? What?" Chen Yan's speech made Laura very confused, "What is it?"
"Have you ever heard of the Gordius Knot? Miss Laura."
Chen Yan put his hand on the handle of Hades' knife, stared at the hole in the wall, and spoke slowly.
"A legendary story told by Alexander the Great when he was in Gordium, the capital of Phrygia. It is said that the person who unties the knot can become the king of Asia..." Laura said in confusion, "Alexander cut it with a knife Knots...but this is a maze, there are no knots?"
"Isn't this maze just a knot?"
The handle of the knife was twisted, Chen Yan's figure sank slightly, the corners of his mouth were raised, blood was steaming all over his body, and then, he slashed out towards the wall with a knife!
"boom!!!"
