Reincarnation: The Soul of Dashul

Chapter 21 Shanhai Temple

Ledo and the giant ape family stood under the gate of Shanhai Palace. He had never seen such a majestic and huge building.

More than half of the Shanhai Palace is embedded in the mountain. From the exposed front part, you can see a three-story building structure, more than 60 meters high, made of gray-white jade.

Although the complete appearance of the palace cannot be seen clearly, the exposed building part above the main entrance can be seen with a symmetrical layout, huge brackets and majestic structure.

On the uppermost floor of the palace, on the vertical ridges at both ends of the outer roof, there is a row of sculptures of mythical animals, arranged from bottom to top, including dragon, phoenix, lion, celestial horse, seahorse, Suan Ni, Xiyu, Xie Zhi, bullfighting, Xingshi A total of ten types, lifelike.

The gate of Shanhai Palace is a pair of nearly thirty-meter square jade gates. The jade gates have a smooth and translucent surface, silver with red in them, and stand tall. On the jade door, there are nine rows and nine columns with a total of eighty-one golden door nails. On the side of the two door leaves together, ten meters above the ground, there is a pair of head rings. The heads of the two heads are the heads of unknown mythical beasts, resembling dragons and tigers, majestic and solemn.

"This is... your home?" After just raising his head, Ledo was amazed. He was stunned for a long time, looked at the giant ape, and said involuntarily, he always thought that the place where the big monkey family lived should be in the deep mountains. A large cave in the old forest, or simply a nest on the branch of a giant tree.

The giant ape nodded proudly, patted his chest, then stretched out his thick hands, pressed against the silver-red palace door, and slowly pushed the door open.

"Boom, boom, boom..." The low sound of the door leaf moving came out, which showed that the door was very heavy, but the giant ape easily pushed open a large opening, beckoning Ledo and the little apes to go in together.

Entering the palace, the light is not as dim as Ledo thought. On the walls, ceilings and pillars around the palace, there are countless protruding jade stones that shine by themselves. The luminous jade stones are arranged in an orderly manner, like stars in the night sky. The hall is very brightly lit.

Ledo followed the line of sight and looked forward, and what jumped into his eyes were twelve tall pillars. They were symmetrically distributed on both sides of the avenue in the palace. Each pillar was very thick, with a diameter of more than two meters, and was also made of gray-white jade. Built.

On each stone pillar, there is a giant dragon engraved on it. The twelve giant dragons are in various shapes and different from each other. The carvings are vivid and uncanny. They seem to come to life at any time and want to swim around the world.

Ledo looked up along the Panlong Pillar, and was shocked again when he saw the top of the palace. On the high roof of the palace, there were many layers of ceiling caissons. The pattern carving techniques of the caissons were quite delicate and profound.

In the middle of the hall, there is a spiral caisson. The precious wood and jade form an ingenious structure. According to a very beautiful proportion, they twist and shrink toward the top of the hall. They are crisscrossed, stacked, and spirally piled up. , does not require too much color modification, just the rhythmic beauty of this structure constantly impacts the vision, it is quite amazing, it is really ingenious and beautiful.

Ledo looked up for a long time, only to feel that it was so gorgeous and wonderful that his neck was a little stiff. He twisted his head and moved his neck, and his peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of the walls around the palace. He immediately looked at it carefully.

The tall walls made of jade around it are covered with colorful murals one after another. Under the fluorescence of the self-luminous jade on the wall, the colors are even more colorful.

The murals painted on the nearly 30-meter-high wall are diverse in content and rich in color. The landscapes above are magnificent, the buildings are magnificent, the characters are vivid and lifelike, and the animal expressions are diverse. The overall tone of the murals is brilliant, bright, complementary and appropriate, perfectly presenting the The decorative beauty of colors gives people a solemn, generous, gorgeous and solemn feeling.

At first, Ledo was just indulging in the gorgeous colors of the murals, but after careful observation, he suddenly discovered that the content of the murals was even more strange. Although the format of the murals was huge and endless, the slant in the colors was The connection is very natural, but from the content, it can be recognized that they are different pictures. Each mural tells a different story.

Ledo faced the painting wall, the first mural from the left. The two figures in the painting were the most conspicuous. Their appearance, clothing and decoration were very different from people today. They were both about two meters tall. Some of them actually have three eyes. In addition to their normal eyes, there is a round eye as green as emerald in the center of their foreheads, above their eyebrows.

Others do not have a third eye, but their abdomens are bulging high, as if they are pregnant with children. Directly above them is a huge floating object. The object has a smooth surface, clear lines, sharp edges, and a bunch of light Yellow light shines down from the floating object, reaching directly to the people with swollen bellies below. Those people have their lips slightly open and their eyes closed, whispering.

Ledo observed for a long time and could not understand the content of the picture. He was just curious and found it interesting. Then he looked at the second mural. He saw many cracks on the ground in the painting, the river not far away was surging, and the mountains were There are various strange animals with panicked expressions, and there are also many people in the painting. They are poorly dressed and have a faint mark between their eyebrows, but there is no third eye that appeared in the previous murals.

The people in this mural seem to be very hungry. There is a big table in front of a group of people, which is full of all kinds of food and wine. Everyone has food in their hands, and everyone is eating gluttonously. They sang and danced happily with very satisfied expressions. Even the harsh surrounding environment seemed to be unable to stop them from eating, drinking and having fun.

In the third mural, the characters and buildings on it are all very tall. The characters are more than ten meters tall. They look very similar to people today, with only slight differences. There are many giants in the painting, surrounding a huge tree trunk. The tree is extremely strong and towers into the clouds in the sky. Countless branches are full of vitality under the sunlight and begin to sprout green buds.

There is a hollow circular tube-shaped man-made object floating around the perimeter of the big tree trunk. The ring emits brilliant white light. The light extends along the big tree trunk and spreads underground to various places around it. The light is dazzling and seems to absorb all the sunlight. Comparison continued. In the murals, there are many such large tree trunks and rings, all of which are similar scenes and appear to be very large in scale.

The fourth mural depicts a huge and boundless island with a steep coast and a broad and fertile plain in the center. There is a magnificent palace built on the plain, resplendent in gold and green, with carved railings and jade inlays. With this as the center, the outward-facing building is a ring-shaped structure similar to concentric circles, which is connected by a series of ring-shaped plates floating on the sea. It is a circle of land and a circle of canals, with layers going outward from high to low. arrangement. On the Ring Continent, there are many tall city walls and palaces, which are magnificent and majestic. There are many mighty warships cruising on the Ring Canal, such as dragons sailing out to sea and fierce dragons crossing the river.

In the highest palace in the center of the island, there is a huge gilded dome. On the inner dome, there is a hexahedral cylinder suspended in the air. The material is similar to agate, crystal clear, and emits red light. These lights are in the shape of wires. , along the beams and columns of the building, across the land and canals, transmitted to every building on the outer concentric continent, covering the entire world, the scene was incomparably luxurious and brilliant.

Ledo was dazzled and rubbed his eyes unconsciously. Unable to resist his strong curiosity, he looked up at the fifth mural...
