Chapter 37 Overturning

The two of them were stunned, not because the characters on the city gate were so mysterious, nor because they were rare, but because they were too ordinary and too common.

To be honest, people from Xia Kingdom must have seen this character, although they may not recognize it.

The two of them looked over the arch, where there was only one character, and the square one was the character "卍".

This character is pronounced as ten thousand, and can be seen in any temple.

Gu Yu licked his lips and said for a while:

"Winter Solstice~ This Kunlun is a Buddhist holy place? I guess, if you found the wrong place, this is definitely not Kunlun Ruins."

Ling Dongzhi shook his head and said with a rare smile:

"I was also shocked when I saw this character, but I didn't deny that this character might be Kunlun Ruins, but because I was surprised that the history of the swastika character was earlier than I thought."

Guyu wondered:

"When Buddhism was born around 600 BC, the swastika was first produced at that time. Is there any ambiguity?"

Ling Dongzhi shook his head and said:

"Of course not. The swastika first appeared in ancient China, which is an undisputed fact in the archaeological world. According to the current archaeological discovery, the earliest swastika in China was pottery of Hemudu culture, which was more than 5,000 years earlier than Buddhism was introduced to China.

Our Chinese historians call the excavation and the swastika map of China the four seasons. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, there are twenty-four solar terms in a year, starting from the beginning of spring and finally reaching the great cold. During this period, the Big Dipper is like a needle, with a fixed finger in a certain direction until the rotation is completed, which is a year. Look at the swastika, is it exactly the dynamic picture of the Big Dipper's rotation? This name is based on this. Archaeologists believe that this is the symbol of the ancient ancestors' record of the four seasons, but it has not been verified and is a guess."

Speaking of this, Ling Dongzhi looked at the swastika on the arch and smiled faintly:

"Maybe this time, we can know exactly what the swastika means."

This character appears on the gate of this city of light and shadow, which proves that this character is the name of the city.

If they can find some information here, they may be able to crack the true meaning of swastika.

As he said that, he touched the city gate of light and shadow with his hands and sighed helplessly:

"It's a phantom, this place is just a phantom, and there is no way to verify it, alright!"

Guyu touched his chin and said in confusion:

"Winter Solstice, you said, where is the real city? This shadow will never appear out of thin air."

Ling Dongzhi nodded and said:

"The real swastika city must exist, and it may not even be far from here, but we just don't know how to find it."

Gu Yu nodded, guessing in his heart whether Professor Jack Sheng could have found the real Swastika City.

The broken walls of Light and Cinema City were broken. If it weren't for the phantom, they could have pieced together these broken stone tablets and inspected them in a complete manner, but now they can only sigh.

The two returned to their hometown and the work of collecting soil samples continued. Lao Ta and Xiao Man'er were napping on the bonfire, one left and one right.

The sun is drooping, and night is coming.

Dachuan asked people to build a few more bonfires nearby so that they could continue to collect soil samples even in the middle of the night.

The ground under their feet is too hard. If they want to collect enough and complete soil samples, they are afraid that they will need to start construction overnight.

The sun had not completely sunk to the top of the mountain, but the phantom of the moon had already emerged from the east sky.

At this moment, the ground under everyone's feet suddenly trembled.

This tremor is very obvious, just like sitting on a boat and encountering a big storm, the whole person is swaying and almost knocking someone down.

"The earthquake?"

"It seems, but it seems to be over."

"No, it's all over. Have you noticed that the ground under our feet has tilted a little?"

"Hmm? It's true. Look at the bonfire, the ground under our feet is definitely tilted, but the angle is not large."

"No, this tilt continues, but the speed is not fast!"

Everyone was attracted by this shock for no reason.

Guyu feels clearer than everyone else.

These people are right, the ground under their feet tilted.

"King Castle has faded."

"It should be caused by the setting of the sun."

"Don't worry about Guangcheng, the earth under our feet seems to be still tilting."

"What to do? It will take some time before we dock next time."

At this moment, the ground under everyone's feet was tilting more and more severely, reaching an angle of more than fifteen degrees, and it was still continuing.

What's even more terrifying is that this tilt seems to be accelerating.

Ling Dongzhi looked at the panicked people and said loudly:

"Everyone is looking for places to grasp and stabilize the body, keep the center of gravity as low as possible, and never fall into the mud. As long as we persist in the docking of this cruising plate, we can escape."

Gu Yu was on the ground with three limbs, and at this moment the ground under his feet had tilted to more than 30 degrees, just like a hillside.

"The winter solstice is too late. Before we dock, the land under our feet can reach 90 degrees, so we have to fall down and feed the insects in the mud."

Ling Dongzhi felt the tilting speed and knew that Gu Yu was right, but he was powerless now. This was not a disaster that knowledge could save.

"I have no other way now, so I can only hold on, hoping that the earth can stop when it tilts to a certain angle."

Guyu shook his head and said:

"I guess vertical is not enough. The earth under our feet may turn over and press us down. We must find the rotation pattern in the tilt process and determine where the intersection between the mud and the earth under our feet for a moment of verticality. I can take everyone out."

If Gu Yu hadn't said that Ling Dongshen really didn't feel the slow plane rotation in the tilting process, I'm afraid that only people like Gu Yu, who have infrasound, could feel this kind of slight movement so sensitively.

Ling Dongzhi closed his eyes, felt the tilt and slight rotation under his feet. After a few seconds, he opened his eyes, looked at the sky, and said to Guyu:

"It's the moon! The horizontal rotation is moving with the moon. If you guess correctly, it is the appearance of the moon that causes the tilt of the earth under our feet. You are right. This tilt will not stop and will eventually turn it backwards."

Gu Yu was almost lying on the ground, and he shouted to Ling Dongzhi:

"If you say it is useful, I guess you will definitely be above the mud before it will overturn."

Ling Dongshen closed his eyes for less than three seconds, and his mind was like a computer. He calculated the speed of the moon rising slowly and the speed of the earth capsizing under his feet. He quickly came up with the answer and said loudly:

"Safe at the edge directly opposite the city gate!"

Guyu nodded vigorously and reached out to Laota and shouted:

"rope!"

Without saying a word, Lao Ta hurriedly took out the rope before and handed it to Guyu.

He has always been serious about escaping.

Guyu put the rope on his shoulder and shouted to everyone behind him:

"Everyone follows me, crawls and walks..."
