Chapter 6 Fierce Seeds
"Third master, what do you see?" Shi Mo noticed that Tang San was standing in front of the mural with a different color, so he asked, but Tang San, who was watching the mural wholeheartedly, was startled, and subconsciously exclaimed before turning around.
"It's okay...... It's okay...... It's nothing more than the deeds of some of the burials. ”
Tang Sanye turned his face to look, and while watching along the mural, he had unconsciously passed through the two burial rooms and arrived at the main room where the coffin of the tomb owner was placed. Shi Mo and Tang Lin had already pocketed some of the better artifacts in the tomb, but they both knew very well that the most valuable items in the tomb were probably still in this coffin.
In ancient times, when the wealthy people were buried, they would always bury their favorite things in the tomb together, especially the gold and silver jewelry that they loved before their death, they would be worn on the body, if they were more particular, they would also use good jade to plug the nine orifices of the corpse to prevent the leakage of the corpse after death, so as to ensure that the body of the tomb owner would not be corrupted, but because of this, once the tomb was opened by tomb robbers, the tomb owner would inevitably be disemboweled, and the cruelty of the means was staggering.
Tang Lin looked at the dust on the coffin in the underworld, and was amazed: "Hey, Uncle Mo, this ancient coffin is so grotesque, it is actually carved from such a large boulder, looking at the patterns and carvings on it so exquisitely, it must be able to sell for a lot of money." ”
Shi Mo smiled when he heard this: "Silly boy, what kind of coffin is this, this is the stone coffin used by the ancients, the real coffin is still in the stone coffin, it's hard to say whether this thing is worth anything, anyway, you can carry it out with great effort." Shi Mo said this, his hands were not idle, he had already prepared the iron drill deep into the gap in the stone coffin treasure cover, if you want to pry this big guy, you have to use some strength.
Tang Sanye glanced at the mural that he hadn't finished reading just now. The one he was looking at was on the left, near the end of the chamber. The mural is somewhat damaged in this section, but there is still a long section on the entire wall on the right, which means that there is still a long story after the city of Lin'an was breached......
The besieging army opened the gate of Lin'an City, and the millions of people in the city survived only a few thousand, and the remaining residents also lost their consciousness as human beings, their dull eyes and roars like wild beasts made this army shudder, and countless rats of the same size disappeared at the moment when the city gate opened, leaving no trace, maybe everything should end here, but after that, it was the beginning of revenge.
One night after the army was stationed, the plague broke out suddenly, and when the plague arrived, countless adult-sized rats came out of the ground again, and pounced on people when they saw them, and the 200,000 troops did not die on the battlefield, but died in this strange Lin'an City, which is like a hell on earth.
And at this time, the mural appeared, a husband and wife, looking at the man's face, vaguely the general who led the troops to attack the city, although the city of Lin'an was broken, but none of the 200,000 troops survived, he was unable to return to Beijing to resume his life, only took his wife who was pregnant with Liujia fled all the way, and never came back.
Soon after, the wife, who was eight months pregnant, showed signs of childbirth, and a mouse with a human face crawled out of the mother's belly!
The villagers were frightened and frightened, and they all said that there was a demon in the couple's house, and before everyone could withdraw from the house, the fire rose into the sky. The villagers wanted to put out the fire and save people, but no matter how much water and manpower they used, this strange fire could not be extinguished, and everyone could only watch the couple being burned alive in the fire.
The next day, when people came here again, they found that the woman was still alive, with dull eyes, smirking, and holding the mouse son taken out of her womb in her arms, as if she had gone mad. At his feet, he kicked a ball-shaped sandbag, kicked it for a while, and then left with a grin.
Only then did the villagers see that it was not a sandbag, but the head of the woman's husband, but the head was already blurry with flesh and blood, as if it had been gnawed by something.
From that day on, every night the people of the village could hear the miserable howl of a man, and two brave men slipped out in the middle of the night to see what was going on, but only one came back at dawn, and the other was frightened to death on the spot, and the expression on his face was extremely terrible.
The man who came back said that in the middle of the night, at the third watch, he saw a headless ghost crawling out of the burned house, dressed in the armor of a general, and the howl that came out of the cavity of the dead man was: "Where is my head......
Since then, the village has been in decay, and people often die here for no apparent reason, and when the body is found, there is no head.
Until one day, a Taoist priest came here, and he looked at the deserted village with his hands behind his back, not knowing what he was thinking. Beside him, dozens of young Taoist children were busy disassembling their luggage, as if they wanted to build a Taoist temple here......
When Tang Sanye saw this, he found that his hands and feet had become cold. The strangeness of the story itself is still less than one-ten-thousandth of what is shown in the painting, with the severed limbs and severed arms of the woman, the bloody head, and the rat with a human face crawling out of the belly of the mother...... Just, that's the end of it?
Is this the mutilated general buried in this tomb?
What else did he get his head cut off, and he was gnawed like this?
Where did the woman with the rat go?
Tang Sanye walked further along the mural, but only saw a dark red wall, maybe the story itself ended here, or maybe for some other reason, the painter could not continue to complete the story. Tang Sanye looked at the last painting blankly, feeling as if something important had been hidden, what was the purpose of using so much brush and ink in a catacomb, and inviting skilled craftsmen to carefully draw such a story like the Arabian Nights?
Tang Sanye stood in front of the mural, thought about it for a long time, and was still puzzled.
