Chapter 105: The Eight-Eyed Puppet (Part II)
Looking at the skeleton that was gradually approaching from the "dead and coming back to life", Yi Mochen swallowed and said, "This time it's really alive!" ”
Tang Qianlin's eyes were fixed on the bone, and found that the bone's feet were dragging on the ground, not walking, so he tentatively stabbed the bone, the head of the gun turned, and the hand shook, directly shattering the bone.
The bones were scattered all over the ground again, and Tang Qianlin looked up again to find that the notebook was still hanging in the air, but it soon flew to the top of the cave and disappeared into the darkness.
"Flashlight!" Tang Qianlin raised his hand and pointed to the position above his head, "Take a look!" ”
An Ran panicked, the flashlight was swaying there, and the calm Ye Da shone the flashlight above, and found that something flickered from there, which seemed to be a person's hand.
Ye Dadao: "There is a hand!" ”
Ni Xiaowan was stunned: "Could it be that there is someone on it?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "It's impossible, is it wrong." ”
Ye Dadao: "I did see that it seemed to be a hand. ”
Li Yunfan said: "I also saw it." ”
Tang Qianlin said: "Check the weapon, continue to walk forward, and pay attention to your surroundings." ”
Tang Qianlin took the first step over the scattered bones, An Ran also jumped over, and Li Yunfan, who walked over last, subconsciously kicked the bones aside.
Just after everyone walked for a while, Li Yunfan in the rear heard a noise and quickly turned around, only to find that the skeleton's hands were floating in the air, and they were facing him.
Li Yunfan didn't say a word, directly pulled the trigger, and fired at the two hands, the bullet struck, shattering one of the hands, but the other hand was still suspended there.
"What the hell!" Li Yunfan frowned, feeling a little furious in his heart, and the people in front of him also turned around and looked at the hands suspended there.
An Ran was extremely frightened and hid behind Tang Qianlin, but suddenly turned around and looked behind him with a flashlight, for fear that something would come out there.
Yi Mochen said: "This is a real ghost." ”
Tang Qianlin shook his head: "It's not a ghost, it's something controlling the bones." ”
As he spoke, Tang Qianlin stepped forward and swung the lower phoenix spear directly above that hand, and sure enough, after waving, that hand immediately fell to the ground, Tang Qianlin put the lower phoenix spear in front of his eyes, and carefully looked at the body and head of the spear.
"Look." Tang Qianlin pointed to the transparent thread wrapped around the gun, "It's a thread, something stuck to those bones, like manipulating a puppet to make the bones move, it's not haunted!" ”
Yi Mochen looked around nervously: "Just tell me, if it's not haunted, what is it that is controlling this thing!?" ”
Originally, Tang Qianlin's explanation made everyone else breathe a sigh of relief, but Yi Mochen's words added fuel to the fire, making An Ran and Ni Xiaowan's hairs stand on end.
Li Yunfan reproached: "Why are you also a foreign businessman, and you have seen a lot of strange things, as for being afraid of becoming like this?" ”
Ye Da, Tang Qianlin, and Li Yunfan continued to search the surroundings with flashlights, but found nothing.
Tang Qianlin then told everyone: "If you see something dead floating up later, you will fire at the top of your head as soon as possible, and now, follow me." ”
Tang Qianlin led the team to move forward, and the deeper he went, the more corpses were found, but these corpses had nothing to do with the archaeological team ten years ago, they were all wrapped in animal skins, and it seemed that they should be the people who dug the trenches in the cave in the first place.
Tang Qianlin inspected the skull of the skeleton, and Anran stepped forward and asked, "Why are you looking at the skeleton?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "If you want to roughly know when these people are, you have to look at their clothes first, followed by their bones, and most importantly, their teeth, you look at the teeth of these people, they are very uneven, which shows that these people should be in the era of the Bohai Kingdom, and they are slaves at the bottom, because eating rough food for a long time will cause the teeth to become like this." ”
An Ran looked around: "Why did they build this?" ”
Tang Qianlin shook his head: "I don't know, maybe it's to cover up something." ”
An Ran said: "If the bronze statue is related to the Bohai Kingdom back then, isn't there a problem?" ”
Tang Qianlin asked, "What do you mean?" ”
An Ran said: "I have checked the information, because of the influence of the Tang Dynasty, the Bohai Kingdom began to advocate the faith of the Central Plains, and it is very respectful of Buddhism and Taoism, but the bronze statue is shamanism at a glance?" ”
Before Tang Qianlin could answer, Ye Da explained beside him: "You must know that the original belief of the Bohai Kingdom is shamanism, and in addition, your concept of shamanism is wrong. ”
An Ran asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"Shamanism is not a true religion to be precise, this sect does not have its own doctrines, nor does it have fixed idols like other religions, and the various ethnic groups that believe in shamanism have different understandings of shamanism and perform sacrifices, and they all come according to their own understandings," Yeda explained. ”
An Ran seemed to understand: "Are you saying that there is no god in shamanism like Shakyamuni in Buddhism?" ”
Ye Da nodded: "Yes, the core figure of Buddhism is Shakyamuni, Taoism is Lao Tzu, Christianity is God, and Jesus is regarded as the savior, that is, the spokesman of God." But there are no such people in shamanism, and in their eyes, the whole of nature is the real master. ”
Tang Qianlin asked: "Then where do the popes and high priests in shamanism come from?" ”
Ye Dadao: "In the past, in the Northeast, there were several popes and high priests, all of whom belonged to different nationalities, and as for when they were united, I don't know, there is no specific information left in this regard. ”
Ni Xiaowan interjected at this time: "I remember that Master said something before. ”
Tang Qianlin raised his eyes to look at Ni Xiaowan and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Ni Xiaowan looked at Tang Qianlin and said, "Uncle Shi, don't look at me like this, do you think I'm lying again?" I didn't, it was really my master who said it. ”
After Tang Qianlin nodded silently, Ni Xiaowan said: "Master said that he found that no matter which religion it is, the concept of the universe is mentioned, do you know what the universe is?" ”
Li Yunfan said: "The concept of the universe is a physical scope, right? ”
Ni Xiaowan nodded: "Yes, Master also said, he said that in fact, they are all basically the same, and there are actually concepts of space and time in all religions. ”
Enron wondered: "Time and space? ”
Yi Mochen became interested, walked next to Ni Xiaowan and listened carefully.
"My master said that the universe refers to space and time, the meaning of life in Buddhism, the function of life, and so on. are all included in his worldview, and don't other religions have these as well? Ni Xiaowan recalled seriously, "What is the world? Time is the world, past, present, future, yesterday, today, tomorrow. And the definition of the boundary is east, west, north and south, up and down, left, northeast, southeast, northwest, southwest, and the ten directions of space are called boundaries, and the place where we live is the world, isn't this the same as the time and space of the universe? ”
An Ran asked, "What about Taoism?" ”
When Ni Xiaowan was still thinking carefully, Yi Mochen accosted beside her: "Taoism believes that the universe evolved from the 'Dao', the so-called Great Dao is invisible, giving birth to heaven and earth, the Great Dao is ruthless, running the sun and the moon, and the Great Dao is nameless, and it nourishes all things for a long time. And the Tao is the chaotic infinity before the judgment of yin and yang, which is formless, phaseless, soundless, colorless, and omnipresent. In Taoism, the process of the formation of the universe has gone through three different centuries: Hongyuan, Taichu, and Taishi, which are the Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things. And the process of creating something from nothing, having and not being is inseparable from time and space. ”
An Ran thought for a while and said, "I remember that there is such a sentence in the New Testament of the Bible - until heaven and earth are abolished, not a single drawing of the law can be abolished, and it must be fulfilled." And there is a saying in Buddhism called 'Ten thousand laws are born by fate, and ten thousand laws are destroyed by fate', these two sentences feel similar? ”
Tang Qianlin got up and said, "I'm off topic, let's not discuss these here, let's hurry, otherwise I don't know when we will be able to get out of this place." ”
When Tang Qianlin got up, he saw a skull in front of him and the surrounding wreckage slowly floating, and the others also found that the surrounding corpses began to slowly float in midair.
"Overhead!" Tang Qianlin pulled the trigger with the gun above his head, and the rest of the people immediately did the same.
Six Bergman MP18 submachine guns poured bullets at the top of the cave, and the bullets hit the top of the cave, emitting fire, and in the firelight, Tang Qianlin found that there was indeed something there, and the thing was shot and climbed on the top of the cave and fled.
"Right!" Tang Qianlin pointed out the direction to everyone, the muzzles of the six submachine guns were facing the right, and all the remaining bullets were emptied, just when everyone was about to change the magazine, the thing above finally fell down and smashed directly at the front of the team about five meters.
After Tang Qianlin said "cease fire", he walked towards the corpse of the thing with a torch, and when he got closer, he realized that it was a huge spotted spider.
Everyone stepped forward to look at the spider the size of a cow, and they all gasped, but they didn't expect that it was this kind of thing that controlled the corpse before?
"Oh my!" An Ran was surprised, "How can there be such a big spider here?" ”
Yi Mochen said: "It must have been too long and no one has cleaned it." ”
Ni Xiaowan shook Yi Mochen's eyes: "We've all seen centipedes bigger than this." ”
Li Yunfan said: "I understand, this thing is to use its own spider silk to stick those bones on the roof of the cave, like controlling a puppet." ”
Ye Da turned around and looked around: "It seems that there should be more than this one, otherwise the corpses around before would not all float up." ”
Tang Qianlin stepped forward and looked carefully at the spider whose body was battered: "It's an eight-eyed puppet spider." ”
An Ran asked, "Do you know what this thing is?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "I didn't know it originally, but there is a record in the "Kyushu Ten Thousand Beasts Map". ”
An Ran was surprised: "Is that the album mentioned in my mother's diary?" What the hell is that? ”
Tang Qianlin explained: "An atlas of all kinds of monsters is the treasure of the hunting faction, but in retrospect, this atlas itself has problems. ”
Yi Mochen asked on the side: "What do you mean?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "Of the strange creatures recorded above, only a very few of them are what I have seen in the past, and the rest of the things, after I looked at the atlas, I found that most of them are from the Northeast, and they all seem to be directly related to the Shaman Spirit Palace." In other words, the Hunting Gang had seen these things hundreds of years ago, and they may have come to the Northeast, but why didn't they leave any records, just a picture album? ”
