When the maid said this, she was simply slapping me in the face!

So I was a little angry, didn't speak, but nodded at the priest, and then walked straight to the cave, a faint fragrance came from behind me, although the goddess didn't say anything, but I knew that she must be quietly following behind, to be honest, this way, with her by my side, I still have more security in my heart!

Because I didn't have a nameless ancient sword and a heavenly relic, I would be an ordinary Muggle at all, but she was different!

As soon as I walked in, the first thing I smelled was a very strong rancid smell, which meant that the place must have been unattended all year round, and it could not be ventilated, and there were many corpses inside.

The maiden behind her is also well versed in this, so she reminded softly in the back: "If this smell smells for a long time, it will be very bad for the body, and if it is mild, it will cause a minor illness, and if it is serious, it is possible to die, so we must speed up the process!" ”

Her words made perfect sense, so I nodded and quickly quickened my pace, but soon I found that there was nothing under my feet, and it turned out that there was a pit more than a meter deep under the cave, and the light in the whole cave could not be summoned at all!

In the darkness, I couldn't see what was inside, at this time, there was a burst of light behind me, and when I turned my head to look, I found that there was an extra jade similar to a disc on the hand of the maiden, but this jade was able to shine on its own, but it really surprised me!

This jade artifact is not ordinary at first glance, and it depicts a lot of Sanskrit characters, like a sealed magic weapon.

Many of the secret methods passed down from the Tang Dynasty are magic weapons in formations, so it is not surprising that the goddess has such a magic weapon similar to a sealing mirror in her hand.

With the light shining in the mirror, I could see the light around me, and then I realized that in front of me was a place similar to a cellar, surrounded by some strange bottles and cans, and some large jars, if it appeared in other places, I guess the average person would think that this is a wine cellar at first impression!

However, I soon discovered that these jars contained not wine or other food at all, but corpses!

The reason why it can be concluded is because there is a faint feeling of phosphorus fire and yang fire leaking out of these jars that look bigger than people, but whenever the yang fire wants to leak out of the altar, it will always be blocked by something similar to a charm on the top of the altar!

In other words, not only will the body of the person trapped in the altar not be properly buried, but even the soul will never be reborn.

This is the first time I've seen this kind of scene, and it's completely different from the customs of the Central Plains.

In ancient China, if you want a person not to be reborn after death, it is very simple, as long as the person is buried, he can be buried with his head down.

Isn't it a bit simplistic and crude?

Of course, this method is too domineering, and the person who buries it will also be detrimental to his descendants because of the damage to Yin and morality, and there will even be the possibility of cutting off his children and grandchildren, so generally no one does this kind of thing.

There is also the use of peach branches, all around the person's grave, and the entire tomb is completely sealed, so that his soul cannot come out.

But these methods are some of the more conventional methods, so the one in front of me, why, because I haven't seen it before, it's really hard to say now!

What makes me even more curious is what kind of fault these people have committed to receive such a punishment, we all say that people die and are in debt, but after these people die, they never get peace!

Just when I felt surprised, I saw a slight sound of footsteps coming from behind, it turned out to be a maiden coming up from behind, she looked at the jars in front of her that contained corpses, sighed faintly, and spoke.

"What's the matter, isn't this daughter village cruel?"

"Hmmm......"

I nodded slightly, my expression was also very solemn, and I looked around, there were about hundreds of the same jars in this cellar, which means that each large jar contained a corpse, how many people must have this!

A question lingered in my heart for a long time, and after thinking for a while, I turned my head to look at the priestess and asked her, "Who are the souls imprisoned in this place?" Why should he be punished so severely? ”

"All of them are people who go against the will of the patriarch!"

The maiden thought for a moment and continued to say to me: "In the 2,000 years since I migrated here, there must have been someone who went against the will of the patriarch.

From ancient times to the present, those who go against the will of the ruler basically do not end well, and what you see now is only the tip of the iceberg.

It's just that the punishment they receive is not the same as the outside, the criminals outside are the most serious, that is, Ling Chi or the Zhujiu clan, after the body is in a different place, it doesn't matter if they die, the soul can be reincarnated normally.

But this patriarch imprisoned these women and their souls here.

What's even more shocking is that when these women who went against the will of the patriarch were locked up here, they were not already dead, but were cut off their hands and feet, poked out their eyes, cut off their tongues, and then put them in this jar and became adults! ”

As soon as the word "renbi" appeared, I immediately felt a chill in my back, and the whole room seemed to be filled with a gust of wind.

This was the most severe punishment in thousands of years, and was first recorded in the Han Dynasty.

彘, 豕也, that is, pigs.

Renbi refers to a form of torture that turns people into pigs.

It is to chop off the limbs, gouge out the eyes, inject copper into the ears to make them deaf (deaf), pour medicine into the throat to cut off the tongue, destroy the vocal cords, make it unable to speak, and then throw it into the toilet, and some have to cut off the nose, shave the hair, shave the eyebrows (not only the eyebrows and hair, but also the eyelashes), and then apply a medicine to destroy the hair follicles, so that the hair follicles will not grow after falling off, and will never grow hair again, and then pull them out one by one, and some are tired, so they will be pulled out together. If the skin falls off, or dies during the execution, the executioner will be ridiculed and even lose his job.

There are also those who died during the execution, and those who did not die were put in the toilet and made into human beings. The most famous is that the Empress Dowager Lu of the Han Dynasty made Mrs. Qi into a human being, and also arranged for a special person to "take care of", and then discarded her in the latrine and let her die in pain, cut off her ears, and even scratched her face. This was one of the very cruel tortures that Empress Lu invented to deal with Madame Qi.
