Chapter 5-058: The Beauty of Foraging (3)
Mexico City, Mexico. (Vertex Hand Hit)
Prince Willow is angry at a large pile of Mayathenian texts.
“...... These damned Spaniards actually killed all the Mayan priests. Damn, why didn't Nazi Germany kill them all back then!" Prince Yang Liu said indignantly.
"Prince, Nazi Germany has not occupied Spain......" a secretary next to him reminded in a whisper.
"Oh, that's my mistake...... So, who occupied Spain?" asked Yang Liu with an unchanged face.
The secretary hurriedly said, "...... The Moors had previously occupied Spain and ruled them for 800 years......"
"Okay, it's ...... them" Yang Liu patted the secretary on the shoulder, and then scolded: "...... Why didn't the Moors kill all those Spanish pigs back then?***...... I've never hated Spaniards so much...... These damn pigs!"
Seeing Yang Liu's rage, his subordinates all looked at each other and couldn't speak, but their eyes were focused on one of the Latino young men.
This guy was a little panicked by his companions, and hurriedly argued: "What are you doing? You look at me like this...... Oh, my ancestors are Basque, not Spaniard......"
Over there, Prince Yang Liu scolded for more than ten minutes before he stopped. However, he then reversed course and changed his focus to the Mayans.
“...... These Mayans, too, are really *** damned, why do you have nothing to do to make the text so complicated?***, who can *** understand these heavenly books?"
It's no wonder he's angry, because he's looking for more relics, and these clues are in the Mayan texts.
They collected a large number of originals, or copies, of the classics. But the content of these things can't be deciphered at all, and Yang Liu and the others can only stare at this large pile of things, and it's strange that they don't get angry.
Because the Mayan script was a script reserved for their priests, it was notoriously tricky, and it was literally a cipher that was completely illegible to anyone except the specially studied Mayan priests.
But the priestly class, who could read the Mayan script, had long been made into a human meat barbecue by the Spaniards, and it was all finished.
The Mayan civilization reached its peak between the 3rd and 9th centuries AD, but then came to an abrupt halt and declined abruptly in the 10th century. It is not known what happened in these 100 years, perhaps due to an earthquake or a volcanic eruption. In any case, many prosperous cities, countless important ceremonial venues, have since been abandoned.
Then, a large-scale war began, and the Toltecs from the center of Mexico invaded the Mayan city, conquered the Yucatan Peninsula, and made Chichen Itza their capital. Since then, the Mayan civilization has entered the post-classical era, and many of the previous materials and texts have been lost.
However, it was the Spaniards who completely made the materials and classics of the Mayan civilization disappear.
In the middle of the 16th century, Spanish colonists, following in the footsteps of Columbus, set foot on the land of Central America and conquered the local Mayan tribes. The Mayans introduced their civilization to the Spanish bishop at the time, Lando. As a result, Lando, an idiot, was frightened by the Mayan texts, believing that it was "the work of the devil", so he ordered all the materials to be burned, and later burned all the Mayan priests for "blasphemy".
After this catastrophe, the Mayan civilization was completely destroyed, and their splendid culture became a dumb mystery. Although there are still some of those classics, the priestly class has completely broken down, and the inheritance has been completely broken, and these "heavenly books" are naturally undecipherable.
For historians, of course, this kind of thing is a pity. But for the "Yangliu Archaeological Team", whether the Mayans are dead or alive, the Mayan civilization is constantly extinct, and they don't care about the birds, what they care about is the Mayan holy relics.
............................................................
Yang Liu scolded the Maya for more than ten minutes before he let out a slight breath of evil.
Seeing that his anger had subsided a bit, the secretary hurriedly asked, "Prince, what should we do now?"
Yang Liu gritted his teeth and asked, "Damn, isn't there a person who can speak Mayan writing now?"
A "marquis" next to him came out and said, "Prince, Mayan scripts are a very strange script, they are neither like the Latin and Greek phonetic scripts, which use individual letters to form words, nor are they monosyllabic scripts like Chinese characters. Their text, each word has four or more syllables......"
The "Marquis" was an expert in ancient scripts and languages, but he specialized in ancient Egyptian and cuneiform scripts, and was also confused about Mayan scripts.
Yang Liu waved his hand and said, "...... Come on, Marquis Pierre, I don't want to know their characteristics now. What I want to know is, does anyone really understand these damn words......"
Marquis Pierre shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "...... It's a pity, Prince. As far as I know, more than 200, less than 300 Mayan scripts have been deciphered so far, and this is the result of computer decipherment...... Well, as for the descendants of the Maya, there are indeed quite a few of them now. At least two million people still speak the Mayan language in modern times, but unfortunately, due to the severance of the lineage, they are also unable to recognize the ancient Mayan script. Even if they were of some help in the decipherment of the Mayan script as a whole, they were not very useful......"
"Then, find those experts right now, and translate as many as you want......," Yang Liu had to retreat and say.
Yang Liu Tie blushed and said: "Although we found two genuine goods this time, but this is not enough! There are thirteen real crystal human skulls, and there are other holy relics......
..............................................................................
Campsite RVs.
Just when Yang Liu was sad, Si Ming was happily enjoying the "Crystal Man Skull".
I saw Si Ming stretching out more than a dozen tentacles, tightly wrapping a "crystal human skull". It exuded colorful brilliance all over its body, and the dozen or so tentacles seemed to have become translucent, and it could be vaguely seen that there were countless brilliant liquids like gold, slowly flowing inside.
Si Ming's body and tentacles are constantly wriggling, they are like water pumps, constantly squeezing out this "golden liquid" from the inside of the "crystal human skull" and transporting them to the core of Si Ming's body.
"Hmm~~Huh~~~It's delicious~~Hmm~~Huh~~~" Si Ming's performance at this time was like a smoker who was smoking a lot, and he made a pleasant *** from time to time.
The little turtle Jinguang was sitting on the ground, looking at the owner enjoying the food, and his eyes showed a gluttony that could not be concealed.
"Huh~~~Ha~~~" After more than ten minutes, Si Ming let out a long cheer and ended the meal.
Then, it happily waved its tentacles and said to itself, "...... It's delicious! It's a little bit better than [Really Good Jelly Beans]! I'll call them ...... They ......"
After thinking for a while, it said with certainty: "...... Yes, I'll call them [Better Rock Sugar Steamed Buns] in the future...... They will be called [Better Rock Sugar Steamed Buns] in the future, and that's it!"
"Master Si Ming, I also want to eat [Better Rock Sugar Steamed Buns]......" Jin Guang chewed his fingers, revealing a pitiful expression.
The things that Si Ming likes to "eat" are not actually physical substances. Like this kind of artifact, holy relic, and the like, Si Ming only absorbs the divine power, belief power, source power, and other high-level energy contained in it. As for the things that make them up, it doesn't touch them.
However, although Uncle Si Ming doesn't look down on these "scraps", others can look at them! Jin Guang is one of them.
You know, things that can be used to make artifacts and holy relics can't be made of any worse material. Even if the material itself is not good, but after years of nourishment by these high-level energies, even if it is a piece of, it has become "heavenly". This strange creature is also a very high-level "foodie", and their favorite food is those materials that have been nourished by high-level energy.
According to the previous situation, as long as Uncle Si Ming eats the rest, it will be Jinguang's turn to enjoy it.
............................................................
This time, though, Jin Guang was disappointed.
Si Ming said, "...... No, Jinguang...... This thing, Su Xue still needs to use, I can't eat it for you......" As he spoke, he threw the finished "Crystal Man Skull" into the warehouse of the Kingdom of God.
"Does Master Su Xue want to eat it too?" Jin Guang said disappointedly.
"It's not eating! it's ...... Stupid Jinguang, you don't understand it......" Si Ming stretched out his tentacles, pinched Jinguang's little face, and said, "...... Jinguang, there is something for you to eat, although it is not as delicious as this, but it looks almost ......"
As he spoke, it waved its tentacles again, and there were suddenly five more "crystal human skulls" on the ground.
The appearance of these things looks exactly like the "Crystal Man Skull" just now. But in the feeling of golden light, these things are definitely not as delicious as the same kind just now.
Of course, this is not surprising, because these [Better Rock Sugar Steamed Buns] are all knockoffs.
According to ancient Mayan legends, they only made thirteen "crystal human skulls". But now there are more than 30 "crystal human skulls" in the world. That is, at least two-thirds of the products are counterfeit,
Some of these five knockoffs were collected by Yang Liu before, and some were recently collected by PA's subordinates. It's a pity that these things are fakes, and of course Uncle Si Ming can't look at them, but it's still okay to feed pets.
As for those "real goods" that have been eaten, Si Ming does have other considerations, because when it was making *** for Su Ze, he browsed a lot of books on cultivation. Among them, there is a method that Su Xue can use, and these "crystal human skulls" are the most suitable materials for this method.
