Chapter 836 An Ancient Hero’s Last Words!
This was a very wide space. It was twice as wide as the entrance of the cave where they had stayed yesterday. The ground here was made of flat stones. From the place where light could be seen to the hole at the end, it was a distance of about thirty or forty meters long.
Among them, there were many things, such as rotten woods, branches, clothing, etc. “What is this?” While everyone was observing this magical cave like that in a blockbuster, Liu Qingshi, who had been looking for clues out of curiosity over there, suddenly shouted. He waved to everyone quickly and said, “Here are many words. Come and see if any of you know these words.”
Hearing his words, they immediately walked over. Without a flashlight, the sunlight coming in through the crack allowed them to clearly see the words on the rock wall. “Wow, how did they engrave so many words?”
“I remember that on Zheng He’s Voyages to the West, he took a whole fleet of soldiers, so those soldiers might have engraved those words. It was really not easy to engrave so many words.” Everyone sighed. Unlike others, as soon as he saw the words on the wall, Fang Qi was shocked.
Others couldn’t see it, but he could clearly see that an ancient text on this rock wall was not engraved with a tool at all, but was written directly with a finger. Fang Qiu could write a similar text, but it would be absolutely impossible for him to write such an elaborate one. The calligraphy was just so beautiful, like writing with a pen on paper. It seemed that it hadn’t been affected by the rock’s texture at all. The author must have deep inner energy to have written such a thing. A general master could never do it!
“Why can’t I understand it?” Ying’er frowned, looked at the text on the rock wall, and said, “There are a few words that seem to be understandable, but after a closer look, I don’t know what exactly they are.” “They’re all ancient Chinese,” Fang Qiu said.
“Can you understand them?” Song Yaqi looked at Fang Qiu curiously. “I can.” Fang Qiu nodded affirmatively.
“Then why don’t you translate the text for us?” Liu Qingshi asked. “I can do the translation, but you have to let me read it first, right?” Fang Qiu smiled wryly. They quickly made room for Fang Qiu and allowed him to stand in the front and center position to read it.
“I, Yang Yizhi, broke into the sea with Zheng He at the Central Plains, and it has been more than seventy...” Fang Qiu looked at every word quietly.
But with each word he read, the shock in his heart increased. Judging from this text, it was indeed an ancient martial arts senior who had left this text!
From the side, everyone also worked hard to read every word carefully, trying to translate the whole article by themselves, but after reading it for a long time, they still didn’t understand the meaning. In the end, they really couldn’t understand it, and had to give up. They turned their heads and looked at Fang Qiu.
Seeing the shock on Fang Qiu’s face, they became even more curious. “Have you finished reading it? What is written on it?” Ying’er asked anxiously.
“Huh...” Fang Qiu let out a long breath, blinked his eyes and said, “I’m finished.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What is written on it?” Liu Qingshi asked immediately. The PD also hurried forward and gave Fang Qiu all the shots.
“The text is about the last words written by a man of the Ming Dynasty in our country before he died!” Fang Qiu said.
“What?” Liu Qingshi was surprised.
“How is this possible? How could it be possible that so many words were written by one person? You said it was written. This was clearly carved, right?” Zheng Weilian said. “Yeah, how did he write this? Was there anything that could be used to write so deeply?” Zhang Junhe was also curious.
“When I look at it, it doesn’t look like it was written before death. It feels like it was carved by many people together.” Song Yaqi was also very skeptical. After all, they were all ordinary people. How could they think of someone who could write on the rock wall with his finger?
“Forget it. Tell us, what does this text mean when translated?” When everyone was doubtful, Liu Qingshi asked.
“We guessed right.”
Fang Qiu pursed his lips, and said, “This is indeed the relics where Zheng He and his men had left on his Voyages to the West. The person who wrote the text as his last words on the rock wall was an old guard under Zheng He’s command.” After hearing it, everyone began to listen carefully.
Fang Qiu continued, “Back then, on Zheng He’s Voyages to the West, they encountered pirates in this place. At that time, Zheng He led a lot of soldiers, which was the strongest fleet at the time. Besides, they had made a lot of preparations before going to sea and specifically recruited many fishermen who had lived on the seaside all year round on the boat. So they were not afraid of pirates at all, and completely defeated them from the front.
“However, due to the Emperor’s instructions, Zheng He did not stay any longer and left directly. The old guard volunteered to stay because of his old age. He meant to frighten the group of pirates and keep the place safe. He didn’t want more people to encounter the persecution of pirates.
“In the beginning, Zheng He didn’t allow it.
“But later, the old guard said to him, a man would be very lucky to be born between the heavens and the earth, and die on the sea!
“Finally, Zheng He agreed.” Fang Qiu sighed softly.
Around him, everyone who was listening to Fang Qiu’s story was shocked by the courage of the old guard. “And then?” Liu Qingshi asked.
“At that time, Zheng He left enough food and fresh water for the old guard. He hoped the old guard could persist until the day he returned. Then the old guard stayed here for a whole year. All merchant ships passing by and encountering pirates were saved by him time and time again, and his strength deterred the pirates in this area.
“Finally, because of being blocked all the time, the pirates could do nothing with it, so they could only leave and disappear.
“After the pirates left, the old guard relaxed. But with his old age and the physical injuries accumulated in countless previous battles, his vitality gradually weakened. He discovered that he would die soon. So he went out to sea with a single knife and killed all the pirates still lurking around before he finally came back here, wrote these last words, and died!”
When he finished, Fang Qiu was very emotional.
This old guard must be a super guru who was able to go out to sea alone. He must have master-level strength at least! Everyone was shocked after they heard the story.
“He was an ancient hero!” Liu Qingshi said with admiration, and then suddenly laughed, and added, “But why does it feel like a legend? A man killing all the pirates by himself, how did he do it?”
“He had the ability to leave these last words before he died. How do you think he did it?” Fang Qiu asked.
This question aroused everyone’s infinite imagination.
Indeed, someone who had the ability to leave this full text of last words before he died was certainly not an ordinary person!
“Do you know his name?” Ying’er said, “The name of such a hero should be remembered forever.”
“Yang Yizhi.” Fang Qiu pointed to the first line on the rock wall and said, “His name is Yang Yizhi.”
“Since these were his last words, where is his body?” Song Yaqi suddenly asked.
Everyone was surprised to hear it. Fang Qiu also froze.
Yes, where was the body of this predecessor who had kept this place safe? Thinking of seeing so many snakes and insects when entering this cave, Fang Qiu suddenly had a bad feeling about it.
“Let’s find it!” Fang Qiu said immediately, “Everyone, look for it with me, and we must find the bones of the predecessor!”
Everyone who was still immersed in the story scattered around to look for it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFang Qiu was also frantically searching everywhere because such an old hero must not suffer after death!
“I found it.” A few minutes later, Liu Qingshi suddenly shouted.
Everyone turned around. Liu Qingshi was standing in a corner of the cave and waving to them.
Fang Qiu hurried over and took a look. In this corner, there were indeed some bones scattered. The skeleton was not in the shape of a human being at all. The body seemed to be destroyed, and the bones were scattered everywhere.
He squatted down, picked up a bone, and looked at it. It was crystal clear like jade! This was the characteristic of a guru!
“As expected, he is a guru.” Fang Qiu frowned again, and muttered, “But, how come the bones are scattered all over the place? Has anyone moved them?”
At this time, everyone who had gathered around also picked up the bones and looked at them. “Is this a human bone? Why is it so beautiful?”
“This is the first time that I’ve not been scared by human bones. This bone looks too unusual. On the one hand, I respect the ancient hero very much. On the other hand, I think this bone is really peculiar. Looking at this bone, I believe that he must be a guru of martial arts!” Liu Qingshi said.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
“Let’s gather the bones and put them together before we bury Mr. Yang Yizhi,” Fang Qiu said. Hearing his words, everyone nodded one after another, and then they began to look around for collecting all the bones for burial.
However, some of the bones were missing as there was only a part of his bones in this corner, so everyone could only continue to look around. Song Yaqi and Ying’er had always been together. Although there was light, the two girls were still a little scared. When they were searching, they walked towards the entrance of the cave at the end. It seemed that the world outside the cave could give them enough sense of security.
But as soon as they walked out of the entrance of the cave, there suddenly came a cry of surprise. The two girls stood at the entrance of the cave, frightened and pale. They were shaking all over, as if they could not even move.
They screamed.
Those who were still looking around in the cave immediately turned around and ran towards the two girls quickly for fear that something would happen to them. Soon they rushed to the entrance of the cave, and while guarding the two girls behind them, they looked forward.
With only one glance, the faces of the male MCs turned pale, and their eyes were full of panic and horror. At this time, Fang Qiu also rushed over.
He went straight through the crowd, walked to the forefront, and looked out of the cave!
