"What on earth is such a thick chain used to lock?" The old river worker's voice trembled.
Hemp rope is used to take fiber on the Yangtze River, and coarse hemp rope is also used to tie big ships. Even the ship anchor, taking the large ship sailing on the Yangtze River as an example, can not use such a thick bronze chain.
This bronze chain is extremely cold. It exudes an amazing chill as soon as it is unearthed. In the hot sun, even standing next to the chain can feel the cold.
"Dig up so much copper that we can sell some of it. Our wife and children won't be hungry for years." The river workers were really hungry and afraid. In their eyes, only copper chains could pay back the money. There was too much time to think about it.
A line of 17 people dug down the copper chain. After digging for more than ten meters, I only heard a few people's hoe ping-pong ring, and a burst of sparks sprang from the tip of the hoe. The accounts of the river workers were numb and shouted at the mouth of the bowl.
"The end?" Laohe Gongxi said.
Such a long and thick bronze chain weighs dozens of tons. As long as they are shipped out, each of them can make a windfall. After all, copper is much better than cultural relics.
The old river worker carefully wiped off the end of the chain. Suddenly, he frowned: "no, there's something below."
When they saw it, they were sure. The bronze chain with a diameter of more than one meter locks a white column. The pillar seems as white as ivory. Even if it has been soaked in mud for thousands of years, it is still as white as jade and dazzling.
"What is this? Why is it locked with a chain? This pillar is neither jade nor stone. Eh, I have been a river worker for more than 50 years and have never seen this thing. " The old river worker was puzzled.
He knocked on the strong column, which was about two meters thick and thin. His fingers banged and chilling, and kept drilling straight from the white post into his bone.
For a moment, the old river worker was almost frostbitten.
"This thing is so evil. It's so cold." He hurriedly took several steps back.
The other 16 River workers were stunned when they saw the white pillar. A river worker said greedily, "maybe there is an ancient tomb under the white column. If we find the funerary objects in the tomb, we won't worry in our life."
His words aroused everyone's greed.
Regardless of their fatigue, the river workers summoned up their strength and began to dig up the white pillars. Although the pillar is huge, the whole body seems to have been carefully polished, very delicate.
The river workers then dug deeper and deeper. Finally, when they dug to a depth of seven or eight meters, everyone dared not dig any further.
Because they found that the so-called white pillar, where is the pillar. Obviously, it is a huge and incomparable bone, the spine of a certain creature, which is deposited section by section at the bottom of the rolling Yangtze River and directly runs through the whole riverbed.
It was only because it was too big that they mistook it for a white column at the beginning by greedy River workers.
All the river workers were surprised. They had never heard of what kind of creature's spine could be so big. Although there are large fish in the Yangtze River, they belong to the finless porpoise. They can grow up to three meters at most. No matter how big the fish is, it has only appeared in legend.
Besides, this huge spine can't be fish's.
Instead, it's like human. Spine by spine, evenly distributed. The strong bronze chain is clearly used to lock the skeleton.
This is incredible.
"King Jinsha, this must be king Jinsha." A river worker suddenly thought of something and turned his head at the huge skeleton.
Other river workers also woke up. Such a large skeleton, if it is a person, it must be a giant with a height of more than 100 meters. Is such a giant as like as two peas of King sands?
Is the spine in front of you king Jinsha's?
At the thought of this, the foolish River workers couldn't hold on and knelt down to worship one by one. No one dared to continue the idea of the bronze chain, and no one was greedy again.
The river workers called other river workers and spent a few days burying the bronze chains and huge vertebrae into the deep mud again.
At the location where the vertebrae were found, a white bone temple was built to worship the king of Jinsha. Since the temple was built, it has been standing in the water center of the Yangtze River. It has not collapsed after several floods, which has further consolidated the consensus of the villagers on both sides of the Strait.
Under the white bone temple is the body of King Jinsha. As long as you burn incense and worship, you can have good weather and make the Yangtze River no longer flooded.
Gu Laoqi is the witness of this event, so he has always warned future generations to fear King Jinsha. Because it is a real God. The evidence is under the white bone temple.
Mu Wan and I were shocked when Lao Gu told us about this experience.
Mu Wan touched her long hair and said, "Lao Gu, is this story true?"
"Of course it's true." Seeing Mu Wan, Lao Gu was finally in awe of the king Jinsha and was finally satisfied.
"Where is the white bone temple now? For so many years, if there is a giant's skeleton buried in the mud, why haven't you heard of an archaeological team digging?" Mu Wan's questions were one after another, and the sparrow seemed to have no rest.
Lao Gu was dumb: "Oh, the white bone temple is gone."
"How could it not be? Gu, you just said that the white bone temple has survived several storms, even if it is flooded. Why do you say it's gone now? " Mu Wan despised.
Lao Gu coughed twice: "Hey, there's a secret in the middle."
"The secret?" Yenuo thinks he has a wide range of knowledge and has never heard of the legend of the white bone temple.
"You think, the huge spine of King Jinsha was dug out from the riverbed and buried in the mud. Villagers on both sides of the Strait burn incense and worship all day.
You know, the blue whale living in the Atlantic can reach more than 30 meters, which has been called the largest creature on earth in history. The largest dinosaur tens of millions of years ago seems to be only tens of meters long. But the backbone of King Jinsha is about 100 meters.
How huge will it be? For my grandfather and his generation, they can't believe it. There's only worship left. "
Lao Gu took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one and handed it to yenuo. Yenuo waved his hand. He put the cigarette in his mouth, lit it and took a hard sip.
Noah's heart is tucking away. Don't make complaints about the 30s, even modern people, even if he himself, is still incredible to this giant legend.
