"Who lights candles and ghosts blows lamps? It sounds amazing!" Being pulled outside, the empress was still a little confused.
"It's just a legend, it's actually a lack of oxygen inside." Ren Baqian sat cross-legged on the ground and smiled.
"Oxygen? I seem to have heard of it!" The empress waved thoughtfully, and Qingyuan and Hongluan brought up two chairs.
"There are actually different components in the air, such as nitrogen, hydrogen, ozone, oxygen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and various inert gases. Among them, oxygen is what living things need for survival. If there is no oxygen, they will suffocate and die " Ren Baqian rested his arms on the chair, and sat on the ground too lazy to get up.
In fact, the shaded ground is cooler.
In addition, some gas components in this world are different from those on the earth. This is the conclusion obtained by the research institute through the situation of some microorganisms. However, Ren Baqian didn't take a bottle of air back home, so naturally he didn't verify it.
Sitting on a chair, the empress waved: "Bring the wine!" while listening to eight thousand science explanations.
"I don't know how long it's been closed down below. Some of the microorganisms invisible to the naked eye will consume oxygen. After a long time, they will lack oxygen. If they enter, ordinary people will die in a few minutes! And there may be some other gases trapped inside. It is harmful and not beneficial, so at least you have to ventilate before you can go in." Ren Baqian explained to the empress, and Tong Zhenye and the officials of the Ministry of Industry who were next to him felt fresh, and couldn't help asking: "Why did the torch go out?"
They are aware of this phenomenon, but they don't know why.
"It's because of oxygen. Not only do living things need oxygen, but even flames need oxygen. If there is insufficient oxygen, the flame will go out." When Ren Baqian said this, they found it even more interesting. This so-called oxygen can play a lot of roles.
"According to normal conditions, at least half a day of ventilation is required to enter." An official from the Ministry of Industry said.
"It's easy if you want to go faster. Find someone in the aisle and slap the door with all your strength to drive the air flow. The air exchange will be accelerated, and the time will be shortened a lot."
"Heartbreak!" the empress called softly.
"I'll arrange it, Your Majesty!" Xin Zhe was never slow to react in business affairs, and he understood immediately.
Soon there was the sound of empty palms slapping the air in the big pit, bringing a strange sound of breaking through the air, like swinging a giant, but it was a little different.
This is much better than using a fan or something!
"Master Tong, when do you think this was left?" Ren Baqian asked.
Tong Zhenye shook his head: "The old man doesn't know much about this."
Ren Baqian had a vague thought in his mind, this passage was probably left behind when the human race was first driven here, or not long ago.
Soaring Snake... Even if it is not as good as Qilin and Dragon, it is not far behind. It is also a legendary creature.
Only then is it most likely to appear.
If that's the case, there must be someone here who wants to leave something behind.
As for the things on the wall, Ren Baqian also had a little guess.
"Your Majesty, what do you think of that mural portrait?" Ren Baqian spread his palm on the empress' lap, and the empress casually put a fruit in his hand.
This movement was smooth and flowing, neither of them hesitated at all, but it made Tong Zhenye's eyebrows twitch.
Inexplicably, he thought of that woman back then.
"Have you got an idea?" the Empress said casually.
"Your Majesty also has a guess?" Ren Baqian gnawed the fruit cleanly.
"I think it might be a road map." Ren Baqian said bluntly.
"It's the route map of the Sixty Thousand Mountains. The first place we saw when we went down was Zhu Linping. And when we got to the place near the door, it was the depths of the Sixty Thousand Mountains." The empress said directly.
"Your Majesty can recognize the other party's painting skills!" Ren Baqian was very impressed.
It is also a strength to be able to recognize a map of this level.
However, what the Empress said also confirmed his thoughts.
"How can there be a road map of the 60,000 mountains here?" Tong Zhenye was slightly taken aback.
"Have you forgotten what I said? It's just a guess. You need to observe and compare to find out." The empress said to Hongluan, "Go to the Qingxin Hall, there is a map of the vicinity of Zhulinping left by Haoguo. You go get it."
Then he snorted softly: "This map was drawn when Hao Kingdom attacked the Shanzhai back then."
After Hong Luan left, Tong Zhenye's face was uncertain. He remembered what His Majesty had said.
The human race was driven from a distant place, and the number was less than 100,000. Some of them stayed in the 60,000 mountains for defense, and the others came to the plains to establish a country.
And in the 60,000 mountains, there are many races. On the other side of the 60,000 mountains, there are so-called ten thousand races.
When the Empress said it, everyone in the court was shocked.
It's just that the matter was too unbelievable and there was no other news, so everyone gradually put this matter behind them.
The passage below is not simple, and the white jade ground alone is not something ordinary people can do. If the road map left on the wall is really the road map in the 60,000 mountains, combined with what the empress said, it is indeed likely to be left over from that period.
When the map was brought over, Ren Baqian glanced at it, it was much more presentable than those on the wall below, at least it could be seen that it was a map.
After watching it for a long time, but still didn't see why, Ren Baqian had no choice but to give up.
After another half an hour, everyone estimated that they were almost done, so they went down to the passage again. They didn't rush to go in. First, they stayed at the beginning of the mural on the wall, and compared it with a map. Now it was easy to see what was inside. question.
"This is Zhulinping, which is about the same location as on the map. That's right, it is indeed there." Ren Baqian pointed to the holes on the wall that he pointed out with his fingers. A hole is a mountain.
"This is Yushan Mountain, this is Hei Ling, and this is Pingliang Mountain..." Tong Zhenye compared them one by one.
"Your Majesty, this is the end of the map. On the map, there is only half a month's journey from Zhulinping." Tong Zhenye said while gesturing.
However, on the wall, this is only one meter.
And the murals on this wall are more than forty meters in total...
If it is true, it means that it will take at least two years to complete the route drawn on the wall.
"This is Sleepy Dragon Cliff! They passed by here!" The Empress calculated while walking, and then pointed to one of the points.
That position is a strangely shaped symbol. After listening to what the empress said, and looking at the symbol carefully, I can barely guess that it is a dragon head symbol.
This sign is so magical!
Ren Baqian believed that the painting was a pile of shit with two wooden sticks stuck in it...
Starting from Yacheng, passing Zhulinping, and arriving at Kunlongya, it will take at least one and a half months of walking, and it is at the speed of riding a horse.
On the wall, it was only one and a half meters away.
Looking at the tens of meters long wall behind, everyone gasped.
Now everyone finally has a little idea of how big the Sixty Thousand Mountains are.
According to the length of this picture compared with the footsteps, it will take at least two years to go out.
There is a line on the wall that meanders from the beginning to the end, which is the route of those people back then.
"Have someone draw the picture on the wall. This picture is of great value and must not be lost. I will go inside first to have a look, and I will become more and more curious about what is inside." Like that, ordered lightly, turned his head and walked towards the inside.
