"Could it be that… "
Professor Liu Kaian said in a suspicious tone: "This will be the bottom of the'Da Xianbei Mountain'?"
As Professor Liu was talking to himself, a magnificent and shocking scene appeared in the depths of the huge cave.
In the astonishing gazes of Weizard and others, there was a red light shining in the depths of the bottomless giant hole...
Immediately afterwards, the red light spread to the surroundings in an instant!
After a few breaths, the bottom of the entire giant hole turned red!
A scorching breath rose from the bottom of the cave, which made everyone feel dry!
"This horrible place... It was still cold and windy just now! How could it be so hot in a blink of an eye?"
Li Dao wiped his sweat and yelled loudly.
"prophecy!"
Professor Liu Kaian yelled in horror: "This is the prophecy..."
"Huh? What prophecy?"
Liu Ru didn't react, her face was confused.
And after hearing Professor Liu's prompt, Weizard's face also became very ugly.
"Prophecy? Right! Isn't this exactly the picture described in the eleventh pattern on the'White Jade Shadow Wall'? Volcano eruption!!!"
Li Daoyi also remembered, he exclaimed: "Where is this huge bottomless hole..."
"This TM is a crater!"
"The entire'Lost City' is located on top of an active volcano!!!"
Although Weizard had already guessed this matter in his heart, the expected extinct volcano became the current active volcano, but it was something he did not expect!
"Witch, look! That winding road... Its end is right in the middle of the magma!"
Li Daoyi, who didn't know where to take out a telescope, suddenly said loudly, "There is still a small stone platform... on it, there is a seal on the stone platform!"
"It must be the'core' in the content of the mission!!!"
"The seal? So..."
Weizard frowned and thought: "We must take a risk and take out this seal!"
Li Daoyi's words were also heard by Liu Kai'an and Liu Ru and his daughter, but they were strangely silent.
After pondering for a moment, Weizard said: "Let’s pick out the more valuable treasures first... Everyone should carry a part, and it’s best not to affect their actions."
"After this is done, we will consider how to get the seal!"
Under Weizard's suggestion, a few people began to collect the various "treasures" piled up on the platform.
This work was mainly selected by Professor Liu and Liu Ru, while the others were free coolies and were responsible for sorting out the selected cultural relics.
"Xiao Li, put down the gold brick in your hand and pass me the bronze ware in the shape of a wine glass next to it!"
Professor Liu, who is conducting the work, is very busy.
Li Daoyi muttered uncomfortably: "What's so good about this broken thing? Or is the gold bricks real!"
"What do you know?"
After getting acquainted with each other, Professor Liu said unceremoniously: "That gold brick weighs only five catties and is worth more than 800,000 RMB at most! And this Western Zhou bronze ware is exquisite in style and engraved with a wish... To be above a million!"
After hearing Professor Liu's explanation, Li Daoyi's eyes became "￥" shaped!
"Professor Liu is more knowledgeable! Knowing what is the most valuable..."
What Li Daoyi said made Professor Liu dumbfounded.
An hour later, Professor Liu and Liu Ru had picked out the relatively high-value cultural relics from this small mountain-like treasure, and everyone packaged them one by one.
"It's a pity... If there are more people, there will be more cultural relics that can be taken away!"
Professor Liu reluctantly touched a huge bronze cauldron and said.
Then he ordered Liu Ru to take pictures and make archaeological records.
"Xiao Ning, next we should think of a way to get the seal from the bottom of the cave! This is probably the ultimate goal of our mission..."
Professor Liu who was speaking was embarrassed, because he also knew that if he wanted to retrieve the seal, he had to put his life and death aside!
"Um!"
Weizard nodded slowly and said in a deep voice, "Then let me go down with Li Daoyi!"
After repeated surveys and confirmations, Wei Zede and Li Dao came to the side of the winding stone steps.
Suddenly, Weizard saw a stone stele with weird characters!
"Strange? Why didn't I see this stone tablet before!"
The puzzled Weizard couldn't help but stop.
"Witch, what's the matter? What are you looking at?"
As Li Daoyi asked, he approached Weizard's side, and he also saw the stone tablet.
"Eh? There is still something here! Professor Liu, Liu Ru, come and take a look, what are the words written on it? Like a ghost painting!"
Liu Kai'an and his daughter stepped forward to the stele and looked at it carefully.
"This text is called'Bronze Inscription'."
Professor Liu explained: “In the Western Zhou Dynasty, characters were basically cast on bronze wares, and they were mostly seen in Zhong Ding. Therefore, the characters of that period were also called'Zhong Ding Wen'. However, Zhong and Ding do not contain all inscriptions. The bronze ware, so modern times have adopted a more exact name, usually called "bronze inscription", referred to as "inscriptions"."
"... I'll take a look, what's written on it..."
About a cup of tea, after repeated discussions between Professor Liu and his daughter, they came up with a relatively definite answer.
Professor Liu looked at the "bronze" on the stone tablet and said to us: "The cave is named Chixuan, one of the blessed places; it is hidden through the ages and suppressed..."
"... The small prints below are too vague to be recognized!"
Liu Ru said in an interface: "The meaning of these few words is that the giant hole in front of you is called the Scarlet Profound Cave, which is a'blessed land'? And under this hole, the secret is suppressed!"
"Secret? Suppression?"
Speaking of this, Liu Ru said doubtfully: "Could it be that the translation is wrong? How can secrets be described as suppression?"
"The translation can't be wrong!"
Professor Liu affirmed: "As for why the inscription on the stone tablet is written like this... I think it is only possible to get the answer when you get to the bottom of the cave."
At this time, Li Daoyi asked, "The blessed land? Does it mean the seventy-two blessed land mentioned by the Taoist school?"
Professor Liu retorted: "Impossible! Taoism was Lao Zi who started in the late Spring and Autumn Period, but there was no such name as Taoism in the Qin Dynasty. The term "Tao" is used to summarize the school created by Lao Zi in the early Han... Inferringly, the 72 blessed places of Taoism should have been summarized by people after the Han Dynasty!"
"It's not necessarily..."
Weizard shook his head and said, "As far as I know, the seventy-two blessed places of Taoism actually only record seventy-one locations!"
"One more is vacant..."
After a pause, Weizard continued to explain: "According to some ancient records, as early as the period of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, nine tiers and ten families were formed! It was only during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period that they flourished!"
"So, this'Red Profound Cave' may really be the one that is vacant in the Seventy-Two Fortune Land..."
