Chapter 619: The Mysterious Statue of Taixu Mountain
Bianca, who had just had her hair washed, stood up, ignoring Rita's movements. "Ahem, it should be the hilly area ahead!"
"There is a road on this island. It seems we are in the right place." Li Ming put his hands on his hips and looked into the distance.
Rita pulled Bianca up and said, "The footprints look quite shallow. I guess the owner of the footprints didn't go far."
Following the footprints, the group walked all the way, but found that the footprints paused at the corner.
Everyone was curious about why the footprints on the ground were broken, and Xiaoyou flew to the front.
"Whoa! What is that! Bianca, look ahead! Look up!"
Attracted by Xiaoyou's words, the group looked up and saw a stone sculpture.
When Li Ming saw this stone sculpture, especially when he saw Taixu Mountain, he couldn't help but twitch his lips.
What’s going on? Why are you throwing stone statues everywhere like Tiga?
"Look up?" Bianca looked at the style that was extremely modern, as if it had just been produced by the factory, but the facial features and other parts were severely worn.
This surprised Bianca very much, "What's going on with this sculpture?"
"It doesn't look like something from the southern country that Cotua mentioned. It looks more like the style of the Shenzhou region." As a historian, Shang Boliang took a closer look and came to a rough conclusion.
"Indeed, from my perspective, judging by the degree of weathering, this stone sculpture is likely very old and it's unlikely to have been abandoned in the last few decades."
Xiaoyou's words seemed to confirm Shang Boliang's words, but Bianca didn't understand. She just smiled and looked at it, "Really? Aren't the facial features of this stone sculpture still intact?"
"No... Judging from the lacquer marks on the base, the craftsmanship of this stone carving is indeed much older. Perhaps someone brought this stone statue into this world many years ago. Although they couldn't speak the language of the surrounding indigenous people, they managed to make a living with their craftsmanship and even made everyone worship the idol worshipped in their hometown. Or perhaps the person who fell here is the person represented by this stone sculpture, and she is worshipped by the people here because of some kind of deeds."
Champollion's suggestion of another possibility froze Bianca. "Doesn't that completely contradict what you said before?"
"Reality is actually very interesting because it doesn't make any sense at all. Many legends mention an Adam, but we only know how many children this Adam had, and how many Eves he had, from fragments of words or even a few relics."
"Aren't you a detective? Isn't there only one truth for a detective?" Bianca said that Champollion had no principles at all.
"Well, don't be angry, don't be angry. A detective may think there is only one truth, but I am a historian!" Shang Boliang's words made Li Ming couldn't help but smile. Maybe it was because he had been on the boat for too long, and he had acquired some of the character of a fun-loving person.
But this made Bianca feel like there were many more Li Mings around her.
This feeling... is so bad!
“In fact, the cruelest thing in this world is not the truth, but the lack of novelty in the stories that replace it.”
As the captain, Shakespeare led everyone forward.
But the further they walked, they discovered a three-meter-tall behemoth. When they saw this guy, everyone looked at Li Ming at the same time.
I have to say that the two people's outfits are so similar, they may as well be cast from the same mold.
