Aztec Eternals

Chapter 458: The legend of Quiculco

In the early autumn, the sky was clear and clean, with eagles and falcons circling high above, overlooking the earth full of life. Clouds and blue mountains are undulating, stretching from the border of the city-state in the northwest to the southeast of the lake area.

The crowd went west all the way, and then turned to the south. The trees became denser and the terrain became steeper. After a total of forty or fifty miles, the trees on the road suddenly became clear, and I saw the towering Mount Estella. Mount Estella is located in the southwest of the capital, on the edge of the Ahusco () volcanic area. Going further southwest from here, more than 40 miles, is the famous Xitle volcano.

Alyssa walked to the bottom of the holy mountain and stopped for a while. There was a sporty flush on her face and the joy of traveling in her eyes. She jumped on a big rock and turned around with a chuckle, like a pompous little fox, with one hand on her waist and the other pointing to the southeast.

"Shirot, do you know? There is a splendid ancient city at the foot of the Hiter Volcano! According to legend, it is the place where all myths begin, and also the origin of the gods, the city of Quiculco!"

"The place of origin of the gods, the city of God Quiculco ()?"

Shirlot whispered softly, vaguely familiar. He looked in the southeast direction, only to see high peaks, continuous forests, and no trace of the city-state. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed, and when he saw the solidified lava and black sapphire stones under the mountains, he remembered what his grandfather told, those legends passed down by word of mouth.

"You mean, the ancient city of gods buried under volcanic lava?"

"Yeah!"

Alyssa blinked, stretched out her white and tender fingers, and gestured the city, temple and people in the air.

"...A long, long time ago, the gods created human beings and gave birth to the first gods. After that, the gods multiplied, led countless people, and established many ancient city-states. And in the Mexica Valley , maybe a thousand years ago, maybe two thousand years ago, the original gods first established the holy city of Quiculco, and then the holy city of Teotihuacan!"

"Well, then what?"

Shulot nodded, looked at his lovely wife, and asked with a smile. According to the archaeological sites of later generations, the city of Quiculco was established around 800 BC, the Western Weekend of the Celestial Dynasty. It is one of the oldest city-states in the Mexican Valley, almost at the same time as the Olmec civilization.

"And then, the holy city of Teotihuacan became stronger and stronger, and gradually opposed the holy city of Quiculco. Two great cities, one in the south and the other in the north, ruled half of the Mexica Valley. Then, the holy city of Teotihua The gods of Kan mobilized 100,000 people and built the immortal pyramid of the moon and the sun. It is said that when the pyramid was built, the gods priests held a large-scale blood sacrifice to communicate with the original evil sealed in the ground. Terry..."

"Huh? Primordial Evil, Sipatelli?"

Hearing this, Shirot was stunned and looked at Alyssa. He had never heard the details of this myth.

Alyssa paused, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Looking at her lover who was listening patiently, she stretched out her arms and made a cute fox face. Then, the beautiful girl lightly parted her red lips and spoke in a eloquent manner.

"Boom!... Although Xipactli was suppressed by the gods, he still had infinite brute force. He reached an agreement with the gods of Teotihuacan, ignited the flames in the depths of the earth, and broke through the Greeks. Ter Mountain Pass. Then, the flames fell from the sky, countless dusts rose, and the turbulent magma rushed in! In just two quarters of an hour, the entire city of Quiculco, including countless noble gods, was submerged. Under the lava!..."

"The gods of Teotihuacan are very happy! Because, from then on, they are the only masters in the entire Mexica Valley. After completely ruling the rich Mexica Valley, the Teotihuacan people's The era of great conquest will follow!"

"Within two hundred years of the destruction of the city of Quiculco, the Teotihuacans conquered most of the land in the world and established a mighty kingdom like never before. From the Great Lakes in the West to the Great Lakes in the East, from From the wilderness in the north to the rainforest in the south, almost all city-states and tribes are paying tribute to them!"

"The ambitions of the Teotihuacan people were never satisfied. After conquering the world, they formed a powerful expeditionary army, led by the Lord of Fire, and set off along the coastline to conquer the Maya in the far east! . . .They went on an expedition for thousands of miles, breaking all obstacles along the way, and finally captured the divine city of Tikalo, sacrificed the Mayan gods in the city, and left a monument of the gods there!..."

Hearing this, Shulot nodded slightly, looking longing.

"The destruction of Quiculco, the rise of Teotihuacan... the conquest of the world, the expedition of the Maya..."

Alyssa's eyes flickered. She raised her head, looked into her lover's eyes, and asked softly.

"Um...Shorote, do you know how the powerful Teotihuacans conquered the world, and how they were destroyed?"

"Huh? The demise of Teotihuacan..."

Hearing this, Shiroute fell into thought. The Teotihuacan Empire flourished, reaching its peak around AD 600. In the Central American world at that time, they hardly had any opponents who could be called a threat. However, after reaching its peak, within a mere hundred years, the empire suddenly declined and declined. As the center of the empire, the holy city of Teotihuacan was huge, once inhabited by a population of 200,000, but quickly fell into desolation and abandonment over the decades. And all the inheritance of the ancient empire has almost disappeared without a trace, becoming an unsolved mystery for future generations.

"Alyssa, what else do you know about the destruction of the Teotihuacans?"

"Hee hee, there is a record in the royal family's inheritance, and it actually exists in the temple of the Holy Mountain of Estella."

Alyssa smiled and licked her lower lip like a greedy little fox.

"Well, Shulot... You let me take a bite and I'll tell you."

"Eh? Good!"

Shiloh nodded readily, stretched out his hand, and pressed the girl's shoulder. Then, he lowered his head and leaned towards the girl's pink lips.

Alyssa smiled slyly and turned her head slightly to avoid it. Then, she opened a small mouth, took a hard bite on Shirault's side ear, and licked it again.

"what?!"

Shirot's ear ached, and then it swelled again. He smiled wryly and grabbed the sly little fox.

"Alyssa, why are you... biting me again?"

"Um...hee hee. If I bite you and leave a tooth mark, it means...you are mine!..."

Alyssa blushed and said a few words in a low voice. Then, she returned to the previous topic and said an unexpected answer.

"Hmm! Ancient traditions record pictures of thousands of years. Although the Teotihuacan people were prosperous for a while, they had already buried the root of their destruction... They connected with the evil gods under the earth and borrowed the power of the original evil. , destroyed the land of origin of the gods. This angered the four main gods who sealed the evil, and only the rain **** Tlaloc protected them..."

"But when the Teotihuacans conquered the world, they indulged in pleasure and comfort, and stopped offering sacrifices to the rain **** Terraloc, which made the rain **** very dissatisfied... The gods left the capital of the gods, Teotihuacan lost the favor of the gods, the influence of evil grew stronger, and endless disasters followed. Civil wars, divisions, barbarian invasions; plagues, droughts, food failures..."

"In less than a hundred years, the Teotihuacan people declined and perished, completely disappearing from the ancient holy city! All they left behind was the huge stone city that was deserted, and the massive pyramids...until eight hundred years. Later, we Mexicans migrated and multiplied, and only then did we restore the barren holy city."

"Blessed by the gods... the power of evil... the grace and disgust of the gods... the upper layers of decay... natural and man-made disasters come..."

Shilot was silent. He recalled the myths told by Alyssa, extracted key elements, and tried to explore ancient mysteries. Suddenly, his back tightened, his chest became hot, and a delicate touch came along.

"Shirot, you said... Will we Mexica, like the Teotihuacans, die suddenly one day? Will the great capital city in the lake be like the holy city of Teotihua? Kan, deserted and abandoned in the wilderness, or buried forever in the ground like the divine city of Quiculco?"

Alyssa stretched out her arms and hugged her lover tightly. She buried her head in Shiroutte's chest, and there was some unease in her words.

"Alyssa..."

Shulot was silent. He remembered the history of another time and space, sighed softly, and his expression was firm again.

"No, I'm here! Don't worry..."

"Ok!"

Alyssa nodded, didn't speak, just hugged the young man tightly.

As the sun sets in the west, the two people embrace each other, leaving a long silhouette. The silhouettes are fused together, the intimate ones are reluctant to separate, and even the hair is intertwined.

After a while, the oxygen-deprived Shilot raised his head and breathed in the air in the mountains. The girl in his arms was panting rapidly, and even her neck was pink. The young man watched for a while, with a smile on his face. After a while, his breathing calmed down, and a question suddenly flashed in his mind.

"Alyssa...what you just said...did someone say something to you on purpose?"

"Well..."

Alyssa opened her eyes, thought for a while, and answered softly.

"Shirot, no one said anything to me on purpose... It's just that a noble lady of the royal family mentioned that there are some rumors in the capital... It is said that the gunpowder weapon of the alliance is not a gift from the Lord God, but comes from The evil thing of the underground demon, with the volcanic breath of the mouth of the demon... The alliance is using the power of evil, just like the Teotihuacan people, destined to bring disaster to the world..."

"Ok?!"

Hearing this, Shirot's brows furrowed deeply. He pondered for a while, and his expression became very serious.

"Alyssa, do you know the source of the rumor? When did it start spreading?"

"The source...I don't know..."

Alyssa shook her head, blinked her eyes, and added two more sentences.

"As for the time... The alliance's new weapon uses the power of the subterranean demons... This rumor has been circulating in all parts of the world for several years... But the connection between the alliance and the Teotihuacan people is this year. After the festival, it began to appear..."

"After the festival..."

Shirote was silent in thought, his expression became grim.

Rumors can move people’s hearts, and behind the widespread dissemination, there are often hidden political plans against the current rulers. The emergence of such rumors in the league is a red flag. The communicator may be a foreign merchant envoy, afraid of the threat of the alliance; or it may be a big noble in the state, dissatisfied with the centralized power of the king. Maybe even some local priests who have lost their power, deliberately combine myths and legends with reality...

"Shirot, what are you thinking? Well, it's scary..."

Alyssa put her arms around Sherlot and looked at her lover worriedly.

Shulot lowered his eyes a little, and the killing intent in his eyes disappeared. Then he looked relaxed and smiled.

"It's nothing, I'm thinking about... a hot spring vacation tomorrow! What can I do?"

"what!"

Alyssa was a little shy. She lowered her head and thought about it for a while.

"Shirot, I want you to teach me that useful knowledge..."

"Well, teaching? Knowledge?..."

"Well, not that kind of knowledge...but, but the mysteries of medicine!"

"Oh! The secret of creating life..."

"It's medicine, how to treat life, not how to create it..."

"Ha ha!"

Shiroute laughed. His eyes were bright, and he looked at the red-faced girl, suddenly feeling a little hot. The tropical climate is still warm even in the plateau mountains at an altitude of three or four thousand meters. The girl had been away for a long time, and sweat was already on her body. Sweat soaked through the pure white robe, revealing the seductive arc under the robe...

"Well, bad brother!"

Alyssa lowered her neck and stomped her feet. Then, she pulled her lover beside her, and walked up the holy mountain quickly.

"Hurry up! The holy mountain is four or five hundred meters high, and we have to spend the night in the temple on the mountainside... In the temple of the sun on the top of the holy mountain of Estella~www.readwn.com~ But the inheritance of Quecul The sacred fire from the Ke Ruins! I have to rest early tonight and can't do anything. Tomorrow morning, I will go to the top to pray..."

"Okay! It's up to you today!"

Shulot waved his hand and gave an order in a low voice, and the hundreds of guard warriors were divided into two teams. Most of the samurai would be commanded by the samurai chief and camped at the foot of the holy mountain. Only dozens of personal guards, led by Naxiu, would **** the two to the holy mountain to visit.

[To tell the truth, recently I have been using Mimi to read and read books to keep up with updates, switch sources, and read aloud tones, which can be used by Android and Apple. 】

"Alyssa, slow down, don't twist your feet..."

"Got it! I've been to the Holy Mountain many times..."

The young man chased after him quickly, took the girl's hand, and climbed up together.

The mountain road is not steep, and there are also footpaths for pedestrians. The mountain has ample geothermal heat and the climate is pleasant and comfortable. The evening glow fell on the mountains, and the bright wildflowers bloomed everywhere, and the nose tip lingered with the pleasant fragrance of flowers. If you look closely, there are butterflies dancing among the flowers, hummingbirds gathering honey, and cardinals playing in them.

"Shirot, look at this flower bush, it's so beautiful!"

"Well, the flowers are blooming and the trees are shady. It's a beautiful time."

The young man nodded with a smile. Afterwards, he quietly hugged the girl, leaned close to the cute ear, and asked softly.

"I didn't finish talking just now, it's up to you today... Then, what about tomorrow?"

"what..."

Hearing this, Alyssa's ears turned red, and half of her face became hot. She tilted her head, her eyes were misty, she looked at her intimate lover, whispered softly, and became inaudible.

"Well, take a bath in the hot spring tomorrow and watch the fish swim... I'll depend on you..." Click to download the APP of this site, a large number of novels, free to read!
