Chapter 295 The Ancient Living Sacrifice
Ixchel raised his forehead slightly, and thought about it: "I don't think so. I also taught Dudu later that he should be more courageous and not be scared anymore."
Lu Mingfei thought that if a cat could understand your words, it would be a ghost to receive education.
"Dudu."
Ixchel beckoned, and Dudu came running with cheerful steps, meowing and thinking that the master wanted to give him food again.
"Eat, eat, and eat."
Ixchel lightly tapped Dudu on the forehead, "Duddu, have there been any thieves in our village recently? Is there any suspicious person near our house?"
Dudu raised his head and rubbed against Ixchel's leg, "Meow~"
Ixchel was helpless, got up and took a bottle from the shelf, poured out a freeze-dried grain, and put it in the palm of his hand, "Dudu must answer the questions carefully before eating."
Dudu tilted his chubby head, looked at the freeze-dried meat in Ixchel's hands, and shook his head, "Meow~"
Then it looked at Lu Chen again, "Meow!"
Ixchel gave Dudu the freeze-drying, and smiled awkwardly after sitting in the seat, "Dudu said that there was no thief, and that Mr. Lu was suspicious."
"I'll go, Ixchel, can you understand cat language?"
Lu Mingfei said in surprise, because Senior Brother Lu went out to "patrol" last night, maybe he will be seen by Dudu.
Ixchel shook his head, "I don't understand cat language, I just understand what Dudu means, and Dudu can understand me, after all, we have been together for so long."
Lu Mingfei felt very interesting, lowered his head and waved to Dudu, and asked in a low voice: "Who does Dudu think is the most beautiful in the room?"
Dudu glanced at Lu Mingfei, lazily walked back to Ixchel and rubbed against Erika, as if he really expressed his opinion.
"This cat is amazing, it seems to be able to understand people's speech."
Lu Mingfei felt amazing.
Zero opened his mouth and said: "Many animals and humans can understand human speech after they live together, but humans cannot understand animal speech. In a sense, human beings are inferior animals, especially in terms of language."
"It's the balance of nature. After people mastered the use of tools and weapons in ancient times, their status in the food chain grew rapidly. If people can still understand what animals say, then animals will be completely dead, although it's almost the same now."
It was rare for Lu Chen to pick up the conversation. He happened to have heard a lecture given by a tenured professor. Knowing the human language can increase the chance of survival.”
After eating, Ixchel asked: "How do you arrange your itinerary today? Are you going to see the pyramids again?"
"It was too dark last night, let's study it again today."
Lu Chen nodded and asked Ixchel when he went out, "Can I ask how long this pyramid has existed in your village?"
Ixchel recalled: "Grandma Keya seems to say that it should have a history of at least 3000 years, and there is no way to test it any further. Anyway, it is very ancient."
"Can you see that pyramid every day?"
Lu Chen asked again.
Ixchel looked at Lu Chen with some doubts, "What's so interesting about the pyramids, I usually don't go there, but of course I often see things that big."
Lu Chen let go of his doubts in his heart. It seems that the tenured professors are right this time. The pyramids have always been there, but they "gone" at a specific time.
This point is exactly the opposite of what Zero and the others said yesterday, but it also has the same effect.
"Godzilla, Dudu is so obedient, not afraid of people at all."
Eriyi hugged Dudu, the little fat man didn't resist at all, put away his claws, put them on Erik's shoulders, and buried his head on the towering mountain.
Lu Chen was actually envious of Dudu for a second. The boys watched Dudu being hugged by the girls, and immediately felt that "humans are not as good as cats".
In the morning, everyone was studying the pyramid, Lu Chen was "supervising" the work below, and Eriyi was stroking the cat and chatting with Ixchel.
The main reason is that neither of them understands archaeological translation, and Zero is the main force in this regard.
As for Lu Mingfei...he didn't understand either, but he felt that he still had to work hard and rely on Norma's translator to find clues.
"Actually, the pyramids are nothing to see. The pyramids in our small village are not comparable to the ones at the Tulun ruins. If you want to read some prophecy documents or something, it will probably be more rewarding to go there."
Ixchel smiled mischievously, "Of course, I'm not driving people away. I wish you could stay for a few more days, so that my tuition fees will be settled."
"Ixchel...do you really want to go to school?"
Eriyi likes this Mayan girl who is more than one year younger than herself. She thinks that a girl like Ixchel should be able to live a happy life, just like her, who finally waited for Godzilla and was free. Wait until school.
Ixchel shrugged, "Of course, you can only learn knowledge when you go to school. Grandma Keya also said that you have a future when you go to school, and you can make friends of the same age in school. It's not like being a tour guide. To deal with those annoying rich guys with a smile..."
She paused, then quickly waved her hands, "Ah, I don't mean you guys, I like everyone very much."
"Being a tour guide... isn't it fun?"
Erika wondered, she thought she would be very happy to visit the beautiful scenery every day.
"It's all the same scenery. I'll get tired of seeing it when I was young. And some customers are very bad, and sometimes they want to touch their hands. I really don't know what those Yankees are thinking."
Ixchel was helpless.
Lu Chen glanced at Ixchel, and what the other party said was true.
The little girl is helpless and runs as a tour guide, so she is easily bullied. Besides, Ixchel is very beautiful, so it is not surprising that some people have evil thoughts.
"Then what will Ixchel do when she is bullied?"
Erika asked with some concern.
Ixchel smiled mischievously, "I'm very smart. I run away when I meet bad customers. In a big deal, I won't make any money. When I ran back to the village, they couldn't find me. Besides, everyone in the village hated me very much. .”
"Ixchel is amazing."
Erika said with some admiration, feeling that this younger sister is very self-reliant and living well by herself.
"Hee hee, it's nothing. You have to live. People have dreams."
Ixchel clenched his small fists, looking like he was struggling.
"Ixchel... what do you want to do in the future after going to school?"
Erika was a little curious.
"Me? I'm actually good at reading. When I didn't drop out of school before, I was the first in my grade."
Ixchel proudly said that she didn't lie, she was indeed a top student before.
Mexico adopts a 12-year education system, but it is not like the big eastern countries. They are three to 15 years old and can go to junior high school.
Ixchel continued: "As for the future, I want to go to a good university related to medicine and become a... veterinarian in the future."
"Is it because of Dudu?"
Lu Chen was a little surprised. Veterinarians are not a high-income group in this era. If Ixchel is really good at studying, he will be able to make more money as a doctor who treats people.
Ixchel nodded, "The doctor who helped me is very good, and I also hope to help others in the future, overcome some problems, and make some terminal illnesses no longer terminal illnesses."
"Ixchel's dream is good."
Erika praised.
Ixchel was a little surprised, "I thought you would say I'm not doing my job properly."
"why?"
Eriyi was puzzled.
Ixchel spread his hands and said:
"Because some people think that seeing a doctor for pets is a waste of resources, and think that if you have talents, you should use them to make contributions to mankind."
Ixchel continued: "But there are also people who really love pets, have nothing to rely on, and treat them as relatives and children alone. They want to save their relatives, but because of the prejudice of the world, the industry is underdeveloped and they have nowhere to go to the doctor. Isn't it pitiful?"
She sighed, "I used to think that money was the most important thing in this world. Before I took Dudu to see a doctor, I thought money was my biggest problem, but the reality told me that sometimes no matter how much money you have, it's useless." , not to mention I don't have any money."
"You're almost college age."
Lu Chen said calmly.
Ixchel spread her hands, "There is no way, just be a few years older, and you can still be the big sister in the class."
Lu Chen looked at Ixchel, "If you really want to go to school, I can give you a recommendation letter from Cornell University in the United States, which is one of the best veterinary universities in the world."
Ixchel looked at Lu Chen suspiciously for a few seconds, then suddenly stepped back, covering his chest, "Is there such a good thing? You don't have any other ideas, do you?"
Female liars also have dignity. They can run errands as tour guides, but they don't sell themselves.
Lu Chen was a little speechless, feeling Erika's piercing eyes, he quickly explained: "It's just a small matter for me, you think too much, as long as you can help us complete this scientific examination, we can transfer to the next month , freshman pre-reading."
He did not make promises indiscriminately. In addition to being a fellowship university with the University of Chicago, Kassel College also has a good relationship with Cornell University in private.
The president of Cornell University is also from Kassel College. He is an excellent veterinarian, but he privately specializes in "veterinary" medicine, which is quite special, that is, the dragon family.
The last time the three-generation species was captured, the president of Cornell University also came to Kassel College to participate in the research.
"Really? You're not kidding me. Mr. Lu, you only look two years older than me. Are you a student too?"
Ixchel felt that Lu Chen was teasing him.
"No, Brother Lu is very powerful."
Eliyi explained for Lu Chen.
Looking at the innocent eyes of the red-haired sister, Ixchel was a little convinced and excited, "Can you really... go to school?"
Lu Chen nodded, "It's a small matter, you will receive the notice, visa and air ticket in a few days."
Ixchel took Erika and sneaked aside, and said in a low voice: "Elder Sister Erika, is your Kassel College some noble college with such wealth and power?"
Erika thought for a while, "Maybe...forget it, but Senior Brother Lu is the best in our school."
After finishing speaking, she looked at Ixchel with a slight vigilance, "No...to call Senior Brother Lu's attention."
Ixchel felt a little funny, obviously this sister was older than him, but she couldn't do it innocently, "No, I was just joking, anyone can see that you are a couple."
Erika's pretty face was stained with a blush, "Really?"
Ixchel laughed and said, "Yes, as long as we are together, Mr. Lu will look at you every three seconds to see how worried he is."
"President."
Zero yelled at Lu Chen, obviously he had something to report.
In her hand, after the meal, Feng Mo and Si went to get the exploration equipment outside the village, which was sent by the executive department temporarily.
"We monitored the texture of some rock formations, and after taking some samples, a large amount of iron was detected in it."
After Ling and Lu Chen walked aside, they whispered.
"Iron element?"
Lu Chen looked at the pyramid, it must be made of stone.
As if seeing Lu Chen's doubts, Ling explained, "It's blood."
"Sacrificial cattle and sheep?"
Lu Chen frowned slightly. He had heard that the Mayans had the habit of offering sacrifices.
Zero shook his head, "No, the ancient Mayans used the blood sacrifice ceremony, one of the cruelest sacrifice methods in the world, that is, living sacrifices. They believed that the death ceremony was a way to please the gods and appease the soul."
The ancient and evil priest was narrated by the girl in a cold tone, which made Lu Mingfei, who heard it not far away, shudder.
"Have you confirmed what blood it is?"
Lu Chen asked.
Zero held the sample analyzer, "After preliminary analysis, it is human blood. Whether it contains mixed-race genes needs further analysis by equipment, which will take about four hours."
"Can you tell the time?"
They may be slowly unraveling the mystery of this ancient village.
Zero nodded, "The time span is very wide. Judging from the cycle of carbon elements, the earliest one can be traced back to 600 years ago. This pyramid existed longer than Ixchel imagined, and the later one can be traced back to ...these weeks."
Lu Chen understood the meaning of zero. Although the instrumental analysis still takes time, they can logically draw conclusions in advance.
On this pyramid, there is the blood of the commissioners of the Executive Department. After the investigation, the "missing" on the list can basically be judged as death.
"knock off."
Lu Chen told the busy freshmen on the pyramid in Chinese that they had already obtained enough information here, and of course they should pay attention to the status of the pyramid in the future, such as when it will...disappear.
"Ixchel, can you take us to the village for a further stroll, I want to investigate the living conditions of the villagers."
Lu Chen wanted to see if there were any clues in the homes of the villagers here. Seeing Ixchel hesitated, he added: "Of course, every villager will be given a visit fee."
