Martin and Satan ignored Didier who was lying on the ground. They walked into the mosque one after another, followed by several soldiers.
The gate of the temple has collapsed, and the remaining fibers of the wooden door can still be seen on the ground.
Walking through the square prayer hall, past two broken minarets and a row of niche walls, we arrived at a hall.
The roof of the hall has disappeared, and the wall on the left side has cracked and collapsed, but the main frame is still there.
Satan patted the pillars in the hall. They were made of wood and were still intact after hundreds of years. He asked curiously:"What kind of wood is this? It has not decayed after all this time?"
Martin came over and took a look,"It should be palm wood. , soaked in oil, dried in the shade, brushed with glue and other anti-corrosion treatments, it still exists normally today."
Martin looked up again, pointed at the broken beam and said:"The beam is made of ginger palm, where There are still materials for drainage pipes and vents, which should be ceramic."
He pointed to the reliefs on the surrounding walls and said:"The style of the reliefs has the characteristics of the Sahel and Sudan. It is rough but also delicate. Look at this. The relief should be a scene of a teacher giving lectures. Obviously this mosque is not only used for worship, but also a school."
Martin has been studying a lot of African history recently, and Namor (an African history expert) sent it to It took him half a day to read all the books.
Now simply speaking from the breadth of local knowledge, he is no longer inferior to Namor.
Martin introduced all the way to a certain location.
At this time, a furry little head poked out of his satchel, it was the little lion Arthur who had been sleeping all the way.
This little guy is particularly lethargic because of his congenital deficiencies.
But when I woke up, I was very naughty. I pawed at my little paws and tried to get out of the satchel, but Martin pushed me back"mercilessly".
"Chirp, miwu!"
The little guy let out a dissatisfied"roar", which sounded like coquettishness to Satan's ears.
The veteran smiled and said:"I didn't expect the lion to be so cute when he was young, no different from a cat.
Martin:"A feline? Of course it's very similar to a cat.""
(PS: It’s strange to say that lions are members of the cat family and the genus Leopard. It has been a consensus in the biological community for hundreds of years. But for some reason, many people seem to think that lions are canines? The author searched online After a while, I found that there are many people who hold this view.
Biologists have dissected the skull structures of lions, tigers, leopards, etc., and found that their structures are very similar. Modern molecular genetics also shows that the common ancestor of lions, tigers, and leopards lived More than 3 million years ago, lions and leopards had the closest genetic relationship, but tigers were farther away from them.
Therefore, lions are cats with roots in the family, and are large beasts of the carnivorous order Felis and the genus Leopard. , this conclusion is also unanimously recognized in the academic community.
But why do many people think that lions are canines? The author searched some online comments for the following reasons:
First, lions are social animals. Unlike other Cats like tigers are solitary, but lions are different. They like to travel in groups, which is exactly the same as the habits of African wild dogs, jackals and other canines. Therefore, people think that lions are Canidae. In fact, living in groups is not an exclusive behavior of canines. Whether a species chooses to live in groups or alone has nothing to do with which family they belong to.
Secondly, lions are scavengers. Most cats eat mainly fresh meat. Like canines, there is some carrion on the lion's menu. This is undeniable, but it does not mean that lions are scavengers. The pattern of fresh meat plus carrion exists in many carnivores. Hehe, humans In fact, there are also scavenging genes, such as the famous canned herring.
Third, it is judged from the appearance characteristics of lions. Lions are the only dimorphic creatures among cats. Male lions have manes, but female lions do not. At the same time, the lion’s The coat color is also very single, unlike tabby cats and leopards, which have obvious spots on their bodies. This view is even less rigorous. The appearance of manes is just a difference in sexual selection, which is reflected in many animals, such as the faces of some male cats. Mane. As for solid colors, solid-color cats are not uncommon—well, some people even classify solid-color cats as dogs on the Internet, and they are drunk. Some people say that lions cannot climb trees. In fact, lions can climb, but rarely climb. Also talking about the way lions roar, in fact, the roar of lion cubs is very similar to that of cats.
In fact, let’s take the simplest example. If lions are canines, how can they be the same as cats? Tigers give birth to offspring? Reproductive isolation is not a joke. Only closely related species can have mixed offspring!)
Okay, let’s talk about Martin, Satan and five soldiers. They walked from the front yard of the mosque to the back yard and walked around a few times. After a room, we came to what looked like a storage room.
The walls of this room were full of cracks, and they were no different from other rooms. They were very dilapidated. There was a large vat dug out of stone in the corner.
The vat Half of the wall at the rear collapsed, revealing a two-meter-wide passage space inside. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Without waiting for Satan to arrange soldiers to explore the way, Martin jumped in.
Satan quickly led He asked the soldiers to follow.
The group turned five or six turns along the narrow road, and a staircase extending downward appeared in front of them.
Continuing down the stairs, a basement of about one hundred square meters appears in front of you.
However, a corner of the basement has collapsed, and outside light can shine in, so it is not dark.
"gold?!"
Even though he was prepared in his heart, Satan was still shocked. After all, the visual impact of such a large pile of gold placed there was quite big.
On the contrary, there was another pile of gems, and he didn't care.
After all, many ancient gems, The reason why they were valuable in ancient times was because mining was difficult or commercial exchanges were difficult, resulting in rarity (Wang Haozhao). This made them valuable. But in modern times, without these restrictions, many gems are actually not valuable - such as green gemstones. Turquoise, agate, red coral, rhodonite, beige stone, etc.
Most of the gems in front of me are crystals, garnets, topaz and other stones that are widely used in Africa, even though they are considered antiques. , and couldn't be sold for much.
And Martin didn't even bother to take a look at the gold.
His attention was all on the sixteen big boxes.
Just think about it, this place will have gold and gems that were very valuable at the time. Stacked, then the things in the boxes are obviously more valuable than gold and gems to the owners of this place.
So what could it be? []
Martin believes that it is the batch of knowledge that"disappeared" from the Timbuktu library (Book)".
(Brothers, please take care of me, please give me some comments, flowers, collections, and rewards. Thank you.)
