Early the next morning, it was just dawn, and just when Qin Shaojie and the others were still debating whether to go or return, the place where they fought Xing Tian yesterday welcomed another group of 'guests'.
There were three people in the group and three horses.
"Jason, I really don't understand, why do we come to this inhospitable place? God, is there really a treasure here?" A man in gray sportswear rode on a horse and said to his companions.
"Pique, please stop complaining. Didn't I show you the notebook I bought? There is the tomb of the founding emperor of Mongolia here. We came here to find it." A young man named Pique
people said.
"Zabu, how long will it take to get there?" Jason asked a local young man who was traveling with him impatiently.
The young man's name is Zabu, he is a college student, he speaks English fluently, and he is the local guide they hired.
Zabu took out the map and looked at it, then looked up at the surrounding terrain and said, "This should be right here."
"Here? This place is so big, where can we find it?" Jason was a little impatient. Several people started setting off early in the morning and spent several hours getting here. Now they can't find any clues.
"Be patient, Jason, haven't we already found a lot of treasures? Haha." Pique smiled, as if he was not in a hurry.
Peake and Jason are Americans. Likewise, they are also hunters and treasure hunters. Yes, they are the characters played by Nicolas Cage in the movie "National Treasure".
Both of them are only 27 years old this year, but they are also somewhat famous in the United States.
The two grew up together, and at the same time they were fascinated by the exciting and passionate business of treasure hunting. So, five years ago, the two began their treasure hunting journey. Not to mention, within five years, the two actually found
They found several treasures, both large and small, which gave them a little fame.
A month ago, Peake bought an archaeologist's manual from somewhere. It looked very old. It recorded some things about Genghis Khan's mausoleum. After discussion, the two decided to set out here to hunt for treasures.
"Where is that place? Why does it feel so eerie? Should we go there and have a look?" Peake pointed to the valley not far away and said.
"Where?" Zabu looked in the direction of Pique's finger.
"It is said that it is the home of the God of War. In ancient times, many soldiers came here to worship the God of War. However, as time goes by and technology develops, no one believes this legend."
"God of War? Ares?" Pique asked in confusion.
"No, no, it's not Ares." Zabu explained. "The Ares you are talking about is the God of War in ancient Greek mythology. The God of War here refers to Xing Tian."
"Xing Tian? Is it very powerful? Can you tell me about it?" Pique asked curiously. He liked these ancient myths very much, and he always believed that some legends might be true.
"Okay, let me tell you something."
"Oh my God, Piqué, Zabu, come and see." Zabu was about to speak, but he heard Jason who had run ahead at some point shouting, his voice full of surprise and incredible.
.
Hearing Jason's shout, Peake had no time to listen to the story and immediately ran over with Zabu on horseback.
"Pick, look, God, is there an earthquake here?" Jason said, pointing to a deep and huge ravine on the ground and the cracks spreading along the ravine.
"Earthquake, no. The geographical location here is not in the earthquake zone at all. How could there be an earthquake?" Zabu said, looking at the ravines and cracks.
"Then how do you explain this?" Jason asked doubtfully.
"Look over there." Just as a few people were looking at the deep ravine and considering what caused it, they heard Piqué shouting.
"Oh my god, what happened here? How were the deep pits on the ground caused? Are they meteorites?" Jason looked at the large irregular pits more than one meter deep and wondered.
I have a brain cell and I can’t figure it out.
There is no human habitation here. If it is a meteorite, where did it go?
Zabu looked at the direction of the valley, then at the deep pits and ravines on the ground. Suddenly he shouted "Ah".
"Fake" Jason was startled by his call. He cursed and said angrily. "What are you yelling at? Have you seen a ghost?"
"This, this is caused by humans." Zabu was a little excited when he spoke, and even the hand holding the map was trembling.
"Man-made? Do you think I'm a fool?" Jason said with a cold snort.
"Jason, shut up and listen to Zabu." Pique stopped Jason and said.
"You... look at that ravine, does it look like an ax hanging on a tree trunk?" Zabu said.
"It does look like it." Peak looked at the ravine carefully and then said. "It's wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. It's very similar to what was made by an axe. However, you said it was man-made, but judging from the size,
No one can handle such a big ax, right?"
"Remember the God of War I just told you about?"
"God of War? Are you talking about Xing Tian?" Pique asked doubtfully. "Isn't that the legendary person?"
"He is indeed a legendary person, but in the legend, Xingtian's weapons are a square shield called Qian and a giant ax called Qi. There is a Chinese saying that says, 'Xingtian dances with Qi, and the strong will is always there.'
The "Qianqi" mentioned in it refers to his two weapons." Zabu explained.
"Look at those deep pits and ravines, it really seems like they were caused by Qianqi."
"What nonsense are you talking about? How can characters in myths exist? You're kidding." Jason sneered at Zabu's statement. He didn't believe it at all. If characters in myths really existed, how could he never exist?
I have never seen God.
"You mean, this is a place to worship the God of War, Xingtian? Maybe Xingtian really exists?" Pique ignored Jason and looked at Zabu and asked.
"This... this is just my guess, but do you have another explanation that makes sense?" Zabu asked, pointing to the ravine on the ground.
Jason seemed to be angry and didn't want to talk at all. But Peake looked at the ravines and pits on the ground in a daze. He didn't know what he was thinking.
Yes, if they could find another possibility, then none of them would want to believe that it was caused by Xing Tian. All three of them had received higher education. Although Pique and Jason both believed in God, that was just a
Faith has nothing to do with whether God exists or not.
"China is an ancient and mysterious country. Maybe some of the legends are true. Let's go back first. It's not too late to find more clues before coming back." Pique thought for a while and said. After that, he turned around and left.
Go back and get ready to mount your horse and leave.
He also doesn't believe that Xing Tian really exists. He likes to take risks, but he is not willing to risk his life. Even if this was not caused by Xing Tian, then something very dangerous must have happened here.
"Farke, we shouldn't have come to this damn place." Jason cursed, picked up his backpack, and followed Piqué.
