If the glacier lake just now is the beauty gifted by nature, what they see at this moment is another miracle in the history of human architecture, hollowing out the interior of the large glacier and building a huge palace with ice.
We don't know who they were and when they were built. We only see their holiness and their solemnity. They stand quietly among snow-capped mountains and under glaciers, waiting for witnesses of miracles.
Now that our witnesses have come, we are shocked and completely lost in this unexpected surprise. Everyone's heart is full of shock, joy, and confusion.
The towering gate of the ice palace was ten meters high, like a place where a giant lived. Standing in front of the gate, he involuntarily had a dream of wishing to open it.
Where I stood, looking down, I could see the darkness of the abyss, and looking up, there was the brilliance of the new born light. I pitched between the heavens and the earth. Even though I was isolated from the world, my mind was clear and bright.
The entire ice palace is wrapped by a circle of arc-shaped ice pillars, which symbolizes the Tiewei Mountain. There are doors in all directions, and the east is the front. The hall is divided into two floors. The layers are different, but they are distinguishable. Under the rainbow-like light, it forms This is a strange view of the palace and the pavilion in the pavilion.
In the center of the door is a row of five pedestals, and the center is the Xumi seat. In the sun, the ice sculptures of the lotus seat, ice bull, ice horse, ice peacock, and ice leo are all vivid and beautiful, which can be called supernatural craftsmanship.
It's just that these colorful Buddha statues of the ice constellation are gone.
On the second layer of the seven-skilled and exquisite ice niche ice tray, the place where the ancient scriptures should be stacked was also empty. Just looking at the size of the base of the Buddha statue, there should be an ice bookcase. Those Buddha statues must be indispensable, and the scriptures must also be indispensable.
Was it moved away? Still melted away? Decayed to ashes
None of this is known.
Jia Sidao was very excited and said: "This is, this is a typical Sanxiang temple structure. This ice palace should have been built in the early period of the Tubo Gong Dynasty and the Tibetan soil Songtsan Gambo period. The ice palace, could it be... Is this the only way up the mountain?"
Zhang Ling said: "It should be correct. It seems that we chose the right path. I just don't know who built this palace and when."
Big Eye said: "It should be at least, it has been established for hundreds of thousands of years!"
Jia Sidao nodded and said, "Unbelievable. Look at its architectural structure, have you noticed
, These columns are inclined towards the middle, and the palace also adopts the pattern of big bottom and small top. The whole palace is like a pyramid inside the glacier. When the glacier is slightly deformed, the pyramid will move as a whole without breaking. ；
The second is the type of glacier. When the glacier is attached to the slope of Xuefeng, it flows slowly like a jelly due to its own gravity. However, if half of the Xuefeng is eroded by the glacier or a spoon-shaped depression is naturally formed , Then the glacier becomes a jelly in a spoon, as long as the shape of the spoon does not change, the bottom of the glacier will not flow. Obviously, what we see is the second form of glacier, which explains why the interior of the glacier can be preserved in the palace of the year. "
Zhang Ling added: "There should be a third reason. The ice used to build the ice palace..." She picked up the ice axe and slammed it on the ice wall with all her strength. She saw the ice axe bounce off sharply, and the ice wall was streaked. No traces were left.
She continued: "You see, these ice are not naturally generated in glaciers. The ancients who built this palace added other substances to the ice to make the ice look more transparent than crystal and harder than steel."
I walked forward. There were colored glazes on the ice wall, and blossoming lotus blossoms were fresh and alive. Next to them were a row of huge ice wheels about thirty feet high. There was a symbol of Yongzhong on the side of the wheel, and I sighed again. Said: "It's incredible."
Big eyes were stroking wildly on the ice wall, and his mouth couldn't help wondering. Suddenly, I didn't know what mechanism he touched, and the ice law wheels that were more than three feet high turned slowly.
"Om... ooh..."
With the slow rotation of the ice wheel, the entire ice palace heard the sound of Buddhist ritual instrument python tubes, and then there was a fine cut sound. Those sounds seemed to melt into the wind, as if they were near and far away, unpredictable. It seems that there is a Buddhist ritual or Bon ritual going on in a vast and vacant place.
Accompanied by the religious rituals and music from the void, the four gates of the Ice Palace opened at the same time.
Not only that, even the interior of the Ice Palace has undergone earth-shaking changes. Some flat ground gradually rises up, forming a step by step; some Buddha statues sink down, and some larger vehicles rise again.
The ice palace at this moment is like a huge ice factory, with countless mechanical bearings one after another, making the sound of various musical instruments.
At the same time adjust and change the posture.
When all this is completed, a more glorious and majestic palace stands in front of everyone.
If what we saw just now can be regarded as a miracle of human architecture, then at this moment, what we saw can only be a miracle created by DreamWorks.
Suddenly, I felt dizzy. The wisdom of mankind is really endless. Everything that has changed before my eyes has made me unable to think.
At the same time, there was a question in my mind for an instant, is this really a human or earthling construction
Facing the change in front of him, Big Eye also exclaimed softly: "Wow..."
"Wow...wow...wow..." Bing Palace immediately magnified the voice of Big Eyes several times, and countless echoes sounded at the same time.
We take that pious heart, the sacred temple of Mairen, when we get closer to those magical ice sculptures, the dazzling colorful colors only make people feel a kind of unreality.
The color in the dream, the palace in the dream, all of this is just like a dream.
The sound of the sky dissipated, and the sun was gradually blocked by the fog, and the colorful rays of light gradually disappeared, leaving only the crystal clear ice sculptures. At that moment, none of us spoke first, lest we destroy the fairyland-like atmosphere.
But at this moment, I heard a harsh sound of "quack", which was like heaven and hell different from the sound just now. It seemed that a monster was coming, which shocked us. I immediately asked, "What sound is it?"
Jia Sidao raised his head, looked at the dome and said, "This palace has existed for thousands of years, and it might collapse at any time. So let's talk quietly."
Big eyes said in surprise: "No, it hasn't collapsed for thousands of years. We collapsed as soon as we came. Then we are too unlucky."
Jia Sidao asked: "Do you know what is the last straw that crushes a camel?"
The big eyes suddenly realized, and he couldn't help nodding his head to show that he understood.
Jia Sidao continued: "Although the ancients added some special substances to the ice to make them stronger and lasting, they are ice after all. Now that the entire glacier is about to melt, how can they survive alone?"
He pointed to the ice pillars outside and said, "If I guessed right, the sound just now was caused by the tumbling between them and the glacier."
Zhang Ling said: "Although the scenery here is amazing, it is not the purpose of our trip. Let's go ahead."
