Chapter 2079 Cause of Destruction
Wang Zan searched in the main tomb for a long time, but still couldn't find out how to get out. He had made many assumptions and reasonings, and also searched for the Qimen Dunjia and Feng Shui magic arrays based on the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams to open them. However, they were not very ideal and there was no obvious sign.
Wang Zan's head was also a little "buzzing" and ache, so he sat down, lit a cigarette and rested for a while.
At this time, the scientific expedition team's inspection work was also in full swing. All they could do was sort out, record, license records and other relatively basic research, or to make some judgments on the funeral objects based on their own experience.
Wenger and Ye Huichen focused on studying the murals carved on the walls around the tomb palace. The murals they found at the entrance when they came in, which recorded a process of the Sumerians migrating from the East, and then they did not end there.
The walls of this palace tomb carved seem to be the history of the development of the Sumerians, and their life after they took root forever in Mesopotamia. In addition to various murals, there are many cuneiform descriptions. However, since the Sumerian cuneiforms that the world has previously found were very limited, their cracking of Sumerian characters is almost the tip of the iceberg, so it is not very helpful. Everything can only be understood by matching the pattern of the murals.
Time passed slowly, and Wang Zan was not anxious next time. If it didn't work a day, it would take two days. Anyway, they had already found a place.
After about a few hours, Wenger and Ye Huichen seemed to have a very preliminary understanding of the surrounding murals, and they immediately walked towards Wang Zan.
Since the experiences after entering the pyramid, the scientific research team has long regarded Wang Zan as a role that can be discussed or even consulted, so after they got to know each other, they naturally came over.
The two of them first drank a little water, ate biscuits and jerky while resting. Wang Zan asked, "What have you found on those murals?"
Ye Huichen ate the biscuits in small mouthfuls, but his expression was shocked: "I discovered a lot, which is unbelievable, and it also solved many of the doubts and uncertain things in our hearts."
“What about?”
Ye Huichen glanced at Wenger. The other party had finished his meal. He took a deep breath and slowly said to Wang Zan: "According to our previous judgments, there are some ancient countries that have been destroyed in history. Before this, we always thought that the demise of the Sumerian civilization and the collapse of the entire country were due to war, but after seeing the murals, we found that it was not."
Wang Zan said without surprise: "I said before that this is unlikely, and there must be other reasons. If it is really a factor of war, the Sumerians will definitely not have the time to build a pyramid grave."
Wenger nodded and said, "Yes, it's really not that it has perished under the war. Sumer's collapse actually came from a disease..."
At the last end of the palace wall, the causes of the demise of the Sumerians were recorded in detail, and even the process of building the pyramids was engraved.
About 5,500 years ago, it turned out that there was no disease among the Sumerians. In that era when medical methods could only be solved by herbs, severe diseases usually had no ability to solve them, such as black death and plague. However, the Sumerians suddenly broke out with an extremely powerful and contagious disease, which directly led to the public's death on a large scale, and the speed was almost unimaginable.
There is no name written on the mural of this disease, or it may be that they can't imagine it and meet it for the first time. Its characteristic is that people who get sick will ulcerate and have pus. People will quickly lose weight in a few days. As for the state of the skills and organs in the body, there is no way to record them.
The murals are carved with many Sumerians lying on the ground, and their bodies are in a terrible state. Some evil people are taking care of them, but it seems to be of no help. Then these sick people gradually die.
After hearing this, Wang Zan frowned and said, "This is a bit unreasonable. If the Sumerians really died in this disease, the two female corpses in the sarcophagus we discovered before were kept in a state of death. This means that they were not sick, otherwise they would not have been preserved so well. There was no pus and ulceration that you just mentioned. Don't say that they were cured after they died?"
Ye Huichen shook his head and said, "Of course it is impossible. It will take a long time to be immunized after a person gets sick. So why there are no problems with the two corpses in the sarcophagus? It is likely that there are two reasons. The first is that they are not infected. After all, no matter how severe the disease is, it cannot prevent everyone in the entire country from being infected. Secondly, I have a bold guess, which is also derived from the recorded murals. This disease of the Sumerians is likely to be infected with men, and women may be avoided..."
Wang Zan was stunned immediately and said speechlessly: "Is this disease a man or a woman?"
Ye Huichen smiled and spread his hands and said, "This is nothing impossible. It is actually very easy to understand, and it is still very common. For example, men will not have women, because we do not have the prostate organ, and there are other examples, breasts..."
After Ye Huichen's explanation, Wang Zan immediately understood that there are very different physiological structures between men and women, and there may be a disease in which only men's infection has no effect on women.
This will lead to the death of men in the entire Sumerian Kingdom, and in the end only women are left, so they will indeed be destroyed. Although it is quite difficult to understand, it makes sense.
"The two sarcophagus we found along the way were female corpses, so in order to verify what I said just now, we have to open the sarcophagus in the tomb and look at the corpses in it to confirm." Ye Huichen looked at the two coffins in the tomb and said.
No one moved these two sarcophagus after they came in. Previous experiences told the people of the scientific expedition team that the coffins in the pyramids are a bit weird, so don’t move them easily or even touch them.
