Tomb raiding: The awesome life that started from Ganggangyingzi

Chapter 289 Temple Murals, Calculating the Serpent Mother's Exaggeration

After Ji Haobo took out some things and asked Fatty Wang and the others to prepare the barbecue,

He walked to a wall and looked up at the murals and carvings on it. The others followed him out of curiosity.

It depicts a war, a battle between men and women, and it seems the men have lost;

But the woman didn't win either; it was almost a lose-lose situation.

However, these are only carved on the two sides of the wall; the core area in the middle is carved with a giant snake that almost divides the entire wall in two.

"Master Bo, the war depicted in this mural, judging by the flamboyant way the eight horses are pulling the carriage, it's undoubtedly King Mu of Zhou."

I never expected that he would come to fight the Queen Mother of the West. What happened to the promised love at first sight?

The key point is that he was also defeated by the Queen Mother of the West's side, which consisted entirely of female soldiers, even though their use of snakes was neither ethical nor a fair victory.

But good heavens, King Mu of Zhou, probably to save face, embellished his story with the Queen Mother of the West, and it's been passed down for thousands of years with great detail. It's truly unbelievable!

Wu Xie's words made everyone smile, but Yi Nanfeng pointed to the middle of the wall with some confusion.

"Haobo, do you think this snake is an abstract depiction of the unreal, or a realistic one?"

If it's an illusion, then it's far too big compared to the snakes coiled around its body and mating.

Not to mention the others, which are incomparable and merely represent the fine lines of a snake.

Her words stunned everyone, leaving them speechless and bewildered, their mouths agape in disbelief.

"Isn't this...isn't this a bit too exaggerated? If you compare those lines to a pheasant's neck;

The snake that needed help mating was the big one we encountered.

Compared to this giant snake, which is probably over a thousand meters long, this creature, even if it couldn't transform into a dragon, could at least become a jiao (a type of dragon-like creature), right?

No sooner had Lao Hu finished speaking with a sense of existential doubt than Ji Haobo looked over and leisurely asked in return:

"What about the snake god? Could it be small? Why didn't it transform into a dragon?"

"Uh…"

Old Hu's mouth dropped open, and his mind went completely blank.

Yes! Even snakes don't necessarily transform into dragons, so... is this snake really that big?

That's so unscientific! Although many things are no longer scientific, general physics shouldn't be overturned!

It's unimaginable how something of that size could withstand pressure and gravity.

"This snake is called the Snake Mother. It is the source of all pheasant necks. I dare say it has an inseparable relationship with the Queen Mother of the West."

Even her incarnation, or a vessel for consciousness transfer and possession.

Ji Haobo's words shocked everyone and gave them goosebumps.

A snake that transforms into a human is called Lady White Snake, but if a human transforms into a snake and then... well, let's just say they have countless offspring snakes... just imagining that scene is enough to pollute your mind and make your sanity plummet.

After a chill ran down everyone's spine, they hurriedly asked in a panic:

"Where is it? In a swamp? In the water?"

They couldn't imagine that such a huge creature could swim back and forth several times in this tiny sinkhole with just a flick of its tail.

"Don't worry, it's deep underground, otherwise this forest would have been leveled long ago."

Ji Haobo shook his head at everyone, then turned around and went to help Yi Nanfeng and the others grill meat.

Soon, the aroma of roasted meat made everyone's mouths water. They each grabbed a piece of meat and went to roast it by the fire.

In an instant, the entire temple was filled with a rich fragrance.

After wolfing down their food, the group of gluttons were too lazy to set up tents and simply lay down on the ground.

Of course, Yi Nanfeng and the others took Bai Maomao back to the Hunyuan Realm, leaving Ji Haobo happily puffing away in his cigarette.

Ever since Yang Xueli and the others became pregnant, he has not allowed them to smoke in front of other women.

"Brother Bo, what exactly is this black mist that Zhang Menzi was talking about?"

Old Hu was also a heavy smoker; he sat next to him, a cigarette butt dangling from his mouth, and picking his teeth with a bamboo skewer.

"Hiss...who knows!"

Ji Haobo took a deep drag of smoke, slowly exhaled, and then shrugged:

"However, based on what he said, I guess it's some kind of unknown gas from the Earth's core that's spewing out from a spatial rift."

Those around them listened with a mixture of understanding and confusion, mainly because they knew very little about the inner world of the earth.

Qiu Dehao was completely clueless, having only heard some absurd rumors and no other real information.

"Bo, do you really think the inner Earth you mentioned exists?"

"No, what inner world? You're probably hallucinating."

Ji Haobo shook his head without hesitation and said in a serious tone:

"Old Qiu, this could be a sign of Alzheimer's disease. Take my advice: older people should go to bed early and get up early!"

"puff"

"Ha ha ha ha…"

The people around him were amused by his blatant lies, and Fatty Wang patted Qiu Dehao on the shoulder with a grin.

"Old Qiu, go to sleep. Old people are most prone to neurasthenia. Look at how badly you're hallucinating!"

After chatting and joking for a while, everyone started to rest.

After a long day of exhaustion and a lack of sleep last night, the person was snoring loudly in the blink of an eye.

It wasn't until midnight that Ji Haobo, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the giant sculpture on the altar.

A faint glow emanated from it, and a yin-yang energy flowed silently through it.

Since there was no other unusual activity besides these phenomena, everyone except Zhang Menzi was completely unaware of it.

Ji Haobo got up and shook his head at Zhang Menzi. He walked outside silently, leaped lightly, and landed on the top of the temple, his gaze sweeping into the distance.

Suddenly, a surprising scene unfolded before my eyes: a bizarre and fantastical spectacle, like a projection rippled across the real world.

From the initial blurriness, it gradually became clear, and then, in a burst of black mist from who-knows-where, thirty to fifty specialties of the inner world appeared.

Then, after only a dozen breaths, the bizarre and fantastical scene began to blur again until it disappeared completely.

Only a group of bewildered individuals were left, wandering around in the lingering black fog.

Several mantis-men leaped into the air, spread their wings, and glided out of the black mist.

The rest of the creatures were then hunted by the swarm of snakes that appeared next.

Although those monsters were all formidable, they were all wiped out in the time it takes to brew a cup of tea when faced with two hundred-meter-long giant snakes and a tidal wave of pheasant necks.

Seeing the snakes packing up their food and preparing to leave, Ji Haobo became unhappy. He could let the pheasant neck go, but he couldn't let those two giant snakes escape.

He instantly flashed through the air a few times, and his figure appeared above the snake. His blood and qi erupted instantly, and he fell down with dazzling golden light.

"Rumble..."

The intense vibrations, accompanied by radiant golden light, spread outwards in concentric circles, instantly killing countless pheasants by their necks.

Even the two giant snakes were somewhat bewildered, and for a moment they didn't seem to react.

So Ji Haobo calmly picked up the pheasant neck that had been hanging there; it was the eagle owl's favorite food.
