Chapter 20: Sacrifices and Offerings

Because the content on this mural is realistic, so each character in it is also painted according to a certain proportion, nearly one meter tall, the facial expression is vivid, and the clothes on the body are evenly colored.

At this time, the person in the robe may be standing higher, just opposite Wu Yi's line of sight, Wu Yi glanced at him, and couldn't help but feel numb, this person's expression seemed to be smiling, and his eyes were staring at himself, as if Wu Yi was looking at him at the same time, he was also looking at himself with a playful face!

Uncanny!

Completely weird!

Although these four murals are exquisite, Wu Yi couldn't say any words of praise after reading them, and there were only two words in his mind, weird! Especially the last one, after reading it, it makes people feel an indescribable sense of depression.

At this time, the coat was completely burned out, and Wu Yi hurriedly lit the half of the candle, but he didn't dare to take the candle to shine on the person in the robe, as if he was afraid that the person would walk down from the wall, or that the person would suddenly change his expression.

"Master Wu, what are the things painted on this mural, you can talk about it, so that the old man can help you judge and judge."

The blind man spoke.

Wu Yi also truthfully described the things on the mural to the blind man as they were, and the blind man was silent for a while after listening to it, and then sighed and said,

"Master Wu, what kind of abduction are you talking about. Sell. Child, this is a sacrifice! If the old man didn't guess wrong, those children were sacrificial offerings! ”

Wu Yi was shocked,

"What? Sacrifice? Impossible! Those children were handed over by their parents, and if they were used as sacrifices, wouldn't these parents have already run away with their children! ”

The blind man chuckled and said,

"Master Wu, it seems that you don't know much about the culture of the ancient times. In ancient times, especially in some remote ethnic minority areas, if a living person could be chosen as a sacrifice, what kind of disaster would it be, it would be a great honor! In some of their local legends, it became a sacrifice, but it was equivalent to ascending to heaven directly, that was to serve the gods in the sky, and it was not good to get a boy and girl next to Guanyin Bodhisattva, but it was not death! To tell you the truth, in ancient times, even if you wanted to make sacrifices, it might not be successful, and you had to go through layers of selection before you had that glorious qualification! ”

Wu Yi couldn't help but feel uncomfortable when he heard this,

"But if it's a sacrifice, then ...... That's too cruel, these kids......"

The blind man waved his hand and said,

"Hey, Master Wu, sometimes you can't understand this kind of thing, maybe it seems cruel to us now, but people at that time didn't think so! We can't use personal emotions to judge whether the beliefs of people in ancient times were not. ”

The blind man told Wu Yi about some strange sacrifices in ancient times, and Wu Yi felt cold in his heart, and he didn't want to discuss this issue any more, so he pulled the blind man out of this tomb.

After leaving this tomb, it is a tomb road one and a half feet wide, and the stone walls on both sides of the tomb road are all carved with murals, but compared with the murals in the previous tomb, the murals on this tomb road are a little more ordinary, and they are not colored, but they depict some of the customs and customs of the time with simple realistic techniques, probably hoping that the owner of this tomb can also live in such a world after he dies.

The tomb was about 20 meters away, and at the insistence of the blind man, Wu raised a candle and gave a cursory look at the murals on both sides, and told the blind man again.

"If the old man didn't guess wrong, the owner of this tomb is the monk in the robe!"

The blind man said suddenly.

"What? It's unlikely. That person's status doesn't seem to be low, how can he be buried on such a small hill casually? ”

Wu Yi said, the first mural in the tomb is very obvious, in front of the king, only the person in the robe is qualified to stand, presumably it is also a powerful character such as a national teacher, how can such a person have to be buried in the position of a feng shui treasure cave, how can it be buried on such an ordinary small mountain?

Moreover, Wu Yida didn't want this tomb to be the monk in his heart, because on the last mural, the monk seemed to be smiling, as if he had seen through all his expressions, it was really too weird, and now he would have goosebumps when he thought about it, if it was really his tomb, then his heart would be more or less affected.

But the blind man sighed, and then said,

"Wu Ye, there are countless grass-headed sons of grass in ancient times, although their murals are painted in the high-rise halls of Qionglou Yuyu, but in fact, this may not be the case. Judging from the content of the mural, it is obviously telling the deeds of the monk, and the old man just heard you describe the murals on both sides of the tomb, and if you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to find that the customs and customs talked about in this mural are more or less mixed with some early Buddhist culture, so the owner of this tomb is the monk nine times out of ten! ”

Wu Yi couldn't help but take a deep breath when he heard this, he is also in the antique business, and he actually knows a lot about the old culture, but at this time in front of this blind man, he is a small thing, I have to say that the blind man is worthy of being a once famous Xieling Lux, and what he has seen and heard is far from being comparable to himself. Although Wu Yi still didn't say anything, he had to admit in his heart that what the blind man said was indeed reasonable.

Wu Yi and the blind man continued to walk forward, walked a few steps, and found that there were two ear chambers on both sides, the scale under the tomb is not large, and they are all built in accordance with the traditional way, the two ear chambers are one left and one right, built on both sides of the tomb road are quite symmetrical, but, on the tomb door of the ear chamber, there are several huge sealing stones, Wu Yi walked over and touched it, the sealing stone is greasy, take a closer look, it has been covered with a layer of moss. After pushing a few more times, the stone seal did not move.

Generally, each of these sealing stones that seal the tomb door weighs more than a ton, and Wu had to give up when he saw that he couldn't push it open.

"What's wrong, Master Wu? What are you doing? ”

The blind man asked, and Wu replied,

"It's nothing, the ear chambers on both sides are blocked by sealed stones, so I pushed it casually, but I couldn't push it open."

The blind man nodded, and continued,

"If there is a sealed stone, with our current equipment, we will not be able to enter this ear chamber, unless we go back to get explosives, but if we use explosives, I am afraid that this entire hole will be collapsed! Tsk, it seems that the owner of this tomb chose to build the tomb on such a small peak, which can be regarded as far-sighted. ”
