Chapter 223: Black Porcelain Jar

Huzi and I instinctively looked at our feet, only to see that at Huzi's feet, there was a copper plate that had fallen to the ground, and there was a long oval object next to it, I couldn't see what it was, because I was too nervous, and what I just saw were some fruits, I instinctively speculated that these things were tribute food, so I said, "Roast suckling pig, it should be a tribute, food for the tomb owner to enjoy in the underworld." ”

At this time, Huzi hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, it doesn't look like it!" Since the object was at his feet, he could see it most clearly, and after two or three seconds, Huzi exclaimed, "It's a child!" ”

Wang Chu and I were shocked when we heard him say this, how could there be a child on this table? So I hurriedly went over to check, only to see that the thing under Huzi's feet was really a child, and I saw that the child was curled up, very small, as if he was still a child less than a month, and the curled up posture was more like the posture when he was in his mother's womb.

It's just that now it appeared here, and it was face down, back up, lying on the ground, and I looked at the copper plate at the tiger's feet, if the speculation was correct, this child should have been lying on the plate just now.

Wang Chuyi squatted down at this time, looked at it carefully, and said, "Why is this child's skin golden?" As he spoke, he touched it with his hand, and then said, "There's a layer of wax on it." ”

Seeing this, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart, since this child was lying on the plate, it should be food, plus Wang Chuyi said that the child's skin was golden, I had a very bold guess, this child was fried in hot oil! Then it is put on a plate as food!

Because people in ancient times were more superstitious, believing that eating newborn or even unborn children could prolong life and live forever, so many dynasties had disembowelment and food food, which is still not amazing news.

When I told Wang Chuyi and Huzi about my speculation, both of them trembled, and it seemed that they were very disgusted by this extremely cruel ancient superstition.

Wang Chu looked at the child and wanted to reach out to pick her up, but after several attempts, he couldn't do it, after all, in this environment, it was too terrifying to hold a baby that had been fried into a golden brown, and if it wasn't for someone with excellent mental quality, he really couldn't do it.

In the end, it was Huzi who picked up the child and found a suitable place to put it down, and after doing this, Wang Chuyi let out a sigh of relief and said, "This tomb, I am a thief, such a miserable and inhumane tomb owner, deserves to be robbed." ”

As soon as Wang Chuyi's words came out, he immediately got Huzi's response, "Hey, it's still our Miss Wang who understands reason, but we don't call it tomb robbery, let's avenge these tragic deaths, and avenge the tortured toiling public, hey, let's ......" Before Huzi finished speaking, Wang Chuyi glared at him, looking at Wang Chuyi's eyes, obviously drawing a line with Huzi again.

Huzi was bored with himself, and stopped talking, raised his flashlight, bypassed the stone platform and continued to walk, because we just came in and encountered this black fog, the scale, size, and furnishings of the whole tomb, we couldn't see it, and now we can only use stupid methods, go in one direction until we touch the wall of the tomb, and then follow the wall to find the tomb door, or other exits.

Because the visibility was so low and we were afraid of encountering some traps, we walked very slowly, and our feet were almost always sliding forward against the ground, and the whole person moved forward inch by inch, and it took about ten minutes to reach the edge of the wall of the tomb.

Huzi turned on the flashlight, shone left and right, and said, "Damn, why did this fog suddenly rise, I don't know if it will disperse, if the entire ancient tomb is like this, then we have not yet reached the main tomb, and we have been trapped to death." ”

Huzi's words are by no means alarmist, because now we have no food supplies, and the light source in our hands is very limited, and we have committed two of the three taboos, if the entire tomb is like this, the best way now is to go back the way we came, prepare food and water, and then wait until the black fog clears, and then come in.

After listening to my proposal, Huzi and Wang Chuyi both nodded, Wang Chuyi groped for the wall, and said, "It's still too late to go back, we haven't gone far, and we haven't encountered the mechanism that blocked the retreat so far, it's the best choice to go back and rearrange the equipment, and then come back." ”

After making a decision, Wang Chuyi groped for the wall, and with the memory of the time he came, he took a step to the left, but after a few steps, he heard a clang, and it seemed that he had kicked something under his feet.

When I looked down, I couldn't help but exclaim, "Ah! ”

I hurriedly shone a flashlight on it, only to see that what he kicked under his feet was nothing more than a black porcelain jar, this kind of jar was very common in ancient times, and it was generally used to hold wine, but now this black porcelain jar is not filled with wine, but with people!

The whole black porcelain jar was wrapped in a layer of white cloth, outside the white cloth, and trapped a few times with a very thin rope, but the top of the jar was a skull that had corroded and only skeletons remained, but what was surprising was that this skull was still only Sen Sen's white bones, but the hair was still on the head, which looked very weird.

Wang Chuyi turned on the flashlight and shone it forward, only to see that about two meters away, there was a black porcelain jar, and on the top of the jar, there was a skeleton!

Huzi walked over quickly, shone a flashlight again, and then said, "Damn, there's still one ahead!" I don't know how many such black porcelain jars there are! ”

Hearing Huzi say this, Wang Chuyi and I couldn't help frowning, such a black porcelain jar containing corpses, it has long been recorded in ancient books, this is a kind of human stick corpse, is a cruel punishment in ancient times, that is, cut off people's limbs, leaving only the head, and then stuff people into the jar, let them die, it is rumored that when Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, Lu Pheasant used such torture to treat Mrs. Qi.

But now this situation is different, so many black porcelain jars, plus the stone platforms, stone chairs, and those wordless stone tablets that we see in the tomb, and now the black porcelain jars! Wang Chuyi and I both realized that something was wrong, and at the same time raised our heads and looked up.

Unfortunately, the black fog is so thick that the visibility is only about two meters, and even if we turn up the bright flashlight to the maximum, we can no longer see the top of the tomb.

At this time, Wang Chuyi took out a flare gun and raised it, and was about to shoot it above his head, but was stopped by Huzi and said, "My aunt, what are you doing here?" ”

Wang Chuyi looked at Huzi and said, "I probably know the structure of this tomb, but now the fog is too thick, I can't see the situation on the top of the tomb clearly, and I'm going to shoot a signal flare to confirm my speculation." ”

Huzi snatched Wang Chuyi's signal gun and said, "You can pull it down, now we don't know how high this tomb is, in case you shoot this old shot, the signal flare is not burning, it will be ejected back, and we will all be burned into roast suckling pigs!" With that, he put away the flare gun.
