Chapter 298: The Boy Who Receives the Immortals and Leads the Saints
At this close range, the figure squatting in the dark was finally revealed under the light of the flashlight, and it turned out that it was not a person at all, but a bronze figure half-crouching there!
Seeing this scene, Wu Yi was relieved while regretting it, although he was not fat, he was not a demon or a monster.
Only, how can there be a bronze figure here? And also...... How could he have a lit candle in his hand?
Several people were shocked and suspicious at this time, and hurriedly walked over to watch it up close.
If this bronze figure was upright, it should be about 1.5 meters tall, so he was half-squatting at this time, and he looked about the same height as a normal person squatting there. The bronze figure wears a lotus-shaped animal face pattern crown on its head, and wears a narrow sleeve and half-arm right suit, showing the clothing characteristics of the early Qin Dynasty.
It's just that what makes Wu Yi's brows frown slightly is the pose of this bronze figure
He was half-squatting, and up close, he looked like a cat standing here, and his two hands, palms up, held a bronze lotus-shaped candlestick, in which there was a deep groove, and there was still half of the blackened liquid in the groove, as for the candle, it was not actually a candle, but a thick wick standing upright on the candlestick, which was burning with a blue flame.
Wu Yi glanced at it a few times, and felt that a strange feeling arose, the shape of this bronze man, where did he seem to have seen it...... Museum? Or in antique magazines?
At this time, I heard Shen Jinbin on the side suddenly shout,
"This ...... This is the ever-bright lamp and the candle of the dead in the ancient tomb! ”
Wu Yi was slightly stunned and asked,
"What ever-bright lamp, dead candle?"
Shen Jinbin glanced at Wu Yi in astonishment, and said in surprise,
"You don't know? It is rumored that after the emperor died, he would make an ever-bright lantern in his tomb with the fish oil of the black-scaled merman, and the ever-bright lantern made could burn for thousands of years without extinguishing, which was used to illuminate the underground palace, symbolizing that the owner of the tomb could step on the road to immortality after death! ”
Hearing this, Wu Yi immediately understood that he had seen the story of this black-scaled merman in some books.
The black-scaled mermaid is actually the legendary mermaid, it is said that the ointment on its body is used as lamp oil, even if it is just a drop, it can burn for several months.
But this kind of thing, Wu Yi just took it as a joke at that time, after all, no matter how low the ignition point of this ointment is, it will not burn for thousands of years, but at this time, there is clearly a burning candle flame in front of him, is this thing really existing?
Thinking like this, Wu Yi got closer again, stretched out his head to see what the legendary mermaid ointment looked like in the groove of the candlestick, and was watching there, but suddenly heard Sister-in-law Wang say,
"Hey, little villain, there's a word on his back, see if you recognize it."
Wu Yi hurriedly went over to take a few glances when he heard this, and said with a wry smile,
These words...... I recognize it, but it doesn't recognize me, so let the blind man come and identify it, and he is the expert at recognizing ancient characters. ”
After saying this, he beckoned the blind man to come, and the blind man took out a pair of blackened white gloves from his pocket, put them on, and groped for the back of the bronze figure.
"Wu Ye, it seems that we have really come to the right place, this is indeed the place where the coffin of the owner of the tomb is buried, these four words are 'pick-up, immortal, introduction, saint', representing the identity of this bronze statue, he is the boy who was used to guide the way when the owner of the tomb became an immortal, also known as the guide boy."
"Bringing the Boy ......"
Wu nodded, then looked at the face of the bronze statue again, well, I saw that the face of this bronze statue was slightly fat and immature, the eyes were slightly closed, and the face was very peaceful.
Thinking like this, Wu Yi glanced at several other candle flames, if nothing else, those should also be the light emitted by the ever-bright lamp held by the guide boy.
And just when Wu Yigang wanted to turn around and go over there to confirm it, he suddenly stiffened again, and suddenly turned his head to look at this bronze figure!
The eyes were closed...... This cat is standing here with his waist bent...... This is the way he holds things with his hands on his chest......
This...... Isn't this the pose that the fat man posed in the passage on the right after being disturbed by the magnetic field?
it! No wonder I thought it was so familiar!
Is this a special coincidence, or does the fat man also become the guide boy in this ancient tomb!
As soon as he thought of this, Wu Yi's head suddenly exploded, and he hurriedly asked Sister-in-law Wang and Shen Jinbin if they felt that the posture of this bronze figure was somewhat familiar. After asking, Wu Yi remembered that in the crowded passage at that time, only he and the demon Taoist saw the shape of the fat man, and when Sister-in-law Wang came over to see, the fat man had already run into the depths of the passage and disappeared!
Seeing the confused looks on the faces of several people, Wu Yi hurriedly told the situation again, and sure enough, the three blind men also changed their faces after hearing this, and they were surprised.
Wu Yi trembled and stretched out his hand to touch the bronze statue, and said,
"This ...... This leading boy posture is exactly the same as the fat man, shouldn't it be the fat man? ”
The blind man smiled bitterly when he heard this,
"Master Wu, what you said is a bit of a joke, how can a living person become a bronze statue? This should just be some kind of coincidence, didn't you say that there are a few more next to you, if the fat man becomes, he won't change so much. ”
Wu Yixin said that it was true, but he was concerned about it, and he was confused, so he urged a few people to hurry up and go to other places to see if those bronze statues were also such a strange shape.
While speaking, several people came to the nearest bronze statue next to them, and unexpectedly, this bronze figure was actually the image of a woman.
I saw that the contours of her eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth and ears were extremely clear, with a round bun behind her head, a long belt tied around her waist, and her body was concave and convex, vivid and expressive, but her posture was ...... It's still the same as the previous one, the cat is half-squatting there, its eyes are closed, and its hands are held up in front of its chest, it doesn't look like it's beautiful, but there is an indescribable weirdness!
However, although it is weird, Wu Yi is also relieved, this is also a bronze statue of a woman, at least it proves that it is impossible for the fat man to change, if it is to change, it must be the sister-in-law of the king.
