Pure and transparent diamonds were once treasures that human beings could not get. Even legendary heroes are hard to have. Among the many legends about diamonds is the story of Alexander, the head of the kings of Europe.
Alexander was the God of War in Europe, whose territory spanned three continents, Asia, Africa and Europe, and he was the only European emperor to provide conditions for the integration of cultures.
In 334 BC, Alexander cleaned up Thrace, north of the Macedonian kingdom, and looked to the east, where the sun was rising, the wider Asian continent.
No one had ever set foot in that mysterious land before, but Alexander wanted to explore more unknown worlds with his limited life.
So the legendary emperor who studied under Aristotle began a long crusade. Alexander's crusade took ten years to break the geographical shackles of Asia and Europe, integrate Greek civilization and Indian civilization, and promote the development of the world.
Most people know that Alexander had a genius in military talent, but they don't know that he was willing to spend time and energy in the Valley of the Snakes in order to obtain brilliant diamonds.
Legend has it that the Valley of the Snakes is a barren land with a large collection of diamonds. On a sunny day, large expanses of diamonds sparkle in the sunlight and condense into fantastic dots of light.
The stars-like points of light set off the Snake Valley in a sacred and stunning way. When Alexander walked to the Valley of the Snakes, he was deeply attracted by the light of the diamonds, but when he saw the poisonous snakes and vultures in the valley, he did not dare to get the diamonds at the expense of the army.
Here the poisonous snake is not only extremely poisonous, but also has a special energy, whenever the poisonous snake radiates light in its eyes, there must be life turned into stone sculptures.
Alexander ordered his soldiers to advance toward the edge of the Serpent Valley with mirrors in hand, and to raise the mirrors to resist as soon as the serpent's eyes radiated light.
In the Snake Valley, where the sky was full of divine light, the poisonous snake was shot by its own attack, turned into a hard stone, and stood on the deep road of the Snake Valley.
When the unsteady wind crossed the Snake Valley, the once daunting Jedi only had the sound of the wind whining, not the chaotic hissing.
Wherever there is a treasure, there will be beasts of prey. The beasts that inhabit the valley of snakes are not only poisonous snakes, but also vultures soaring in the sky.
Whenever the army approached snake valley, the vultures swooped down in groups, attacking people with their hard beaks and sharp claws.
So Alexander ordered his soldiers to cut the meat into small pieces, and the archers ambushed nearby, firing fiercely as soon as the vultures flew out of the valley.
The fresh meat attracted hungry vultures. As soon as the birds of prey approached the food, the rain of arrows sped away, piercing through the vultures with a sharp whistle of breaking air.
A few days later, the serpent and vulture were wiped out, and the diamonds of the entire Snake Valley became an important harvest of Alexander's crusade to India. Alexander's crusade lasted a full decade, and he died of illness a few years after returning home.
The legends about him have not dissipated, whether it is the invincible Macedonian phalanx or the fantastic Valley of the Snake, it has become a precious historical treasure of mankind.
