Chapter 8 Human life is like a mustard
There seemed to be a large hole in it, and the light of the flashlight shone through it, and it was swallowed up, and nothing could be seen inside.
Although I found the entrance to the cave, the hole was indeed a bit high, and it was probably not so easy to go up.
"Don't leave the flashlight on, I don't know when I can go out now, save some of them, just keep the two on." After Mao Gose finished speaking, I also realized that we are now in this secret room where there is no light day, and now everyone has a flashlight to the point where they are not aware of it, but if there is no light source, it will be a very terrifying thing.
I remember that the third brother once told me that most of the people who make a living by digging graves and fighting are all in groups of three or five, and one of them must let go of the wind, and there are only one or two people who go down to the tomb to hunt for treasure, and once they are scattered in the tomb, then the courage of the grave is extremely demanding, and there is another point that people with rich imagination can't do this, and there are often times when there is no light source in the tomb, and those who have rich imagination, human beings are afraid of unknown darkness, and imagination alone can scare themselves to death.
So there is an old saying that is good, in this world, the most terrible thing is not ghosts and gods, but people's hearts!
After Mao Gose finished speaking, there were only two lights left in the secret room, the roof of this secret room was ten meters high, and the position of the hole was in the middle of the upper position, and the bottom was also five meters high from the ground.
No matter how good a normal person's jumping power is, trying to climb up to that hole from the ground is a fool's dream, of course, I'm talking about normal people.
Just as I was thinking about how to go up, a figure rushed towards the entrance of the cave, and in the blink of an eye, it came to the bottom of the hole.
Then a very dynamic picture appeared before my eyes, and I saw the figure come to the bottom of the cave at a gallop, and without pause, his right foot kicked the ground violently, and then the whole body rose into the air, and the figure in the air seemed to freeze in my mind.
In the next second, the figure was already half-squatting at the entrance of the cave, untied a string of ropes around his waist and threw it down, and I fixed my eyes to see that it was Zhang Moxing.
Huo Nan was also stunned, but there was a scene where Zhang Moxing kicked the boulder away just now, and now he is a little used to it.
I looked at Zhang Moxing above, and wondered what was the meaning of the construction of this cave, which completely violated the principles of architecture, and where did it lead? The hole in the back is sealed, and we don't seem to have a turning back now.
With this first one, the back will naturally be much better.
"Hey, ladies first." I said to Yan Jing who was standing in front of me.
Yan Jing didn't mean to excuse herself, nodded, took the rope I handed over, and then gestured to Zhang Moxing above, grabbed the rope with one hand and was pulled by Zhang Moxing, and after jumping in the air, she came to the passage above.
The group soon came to the passage, there was no light source in the secret room, and once again fell into silence, and this silence, I don't know when it will be broken.
Zhang Mo walked at the front of the team, and used a flashlight to shine on the inside of the passage, the straight and spacious passage did not know where it led, and the beam of the powerful flashlight could not reach the end of the passage, it seemed that the passage was very deep.
On the walls on both sides of the passage, there are reliefs of continuous reading, but surprisingly there is no text written on them, they are all birds and beasts.
About twenty meters forward, on both sides of the passage appeared at the same time two oil lamps that had been wrapped in dust, along the light of the flashlight, I don't know the end of the passage, there will be such oil lamps every twenty meters, the age of the copper plate under the oil lamp has given birth to a layer of patina, under the copper plate is connected to a bronze iron pillar as thick as a baby's arm, which is also engraved with some mysterious patterns.
I curiously stared at the pattern on the bronze iron pillar below, and saw that on the somewhat vague pattern, there were rows of people with their hands trapped, and behind this row of people, there were two tall men standing with whips, and the faces of the men could not be seen clearly, but the talented patterns on the faces could be seen clearly, and the two men pointed to the front with one left hand, and raised the whip in their hands with the other hand, and they were about to whip the back of the person whose hands were trapped in front of him.
"What do you think this passage is for?" Huo Nan saw that I seemed to have found something, so he asked out loud.
"It should be an escape passage left by the workers who built this secret room, didn't it all have to kill the craftsmen and designers who built the mausoleum in ancient times?" I shrugged my shoulders and said, but I didn't believe it myself.
If this passage is used by the people who built the secret room to escape, it will definitely not be built so high, and most of the escape passages like that are in very secret locations, it is good to be able to drill out alone, it is impossible to build such a large one, besides, the escape passage is not possible to be specially equipped with oil lamps, and there is spare time to carve patterns, I also said it casually.
"It's just a corridor to death." Yan Jing, who was walking in front of us, said while looking left and right.
"Hehe, beauty expert, you're here to explain." Huo Nan stretched his neck and said, as if he had forgotten the kick just now.
"If I guess correctly, this ancient tomb should be in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, that era is also popular to sacrifice livestock to peek into the way of heaven, and in the ancient tomb, headed by human sacrifice, such troubled times, human life is just grass mustard, in the eyes of those in power, slaves and livestock are no different, in addition to being able to daily labor, other uses are used for sacrifice, there are life sacrifices and death sacrifices, after the death of some magnates, like to use how many slaves can be sacrificed to measure the noble status of the deceased during his lifetime, small hundreds, In order to build a large mausoleum, aside from the slaves who were sacrificed, the slaves who were destroyed and died were countless, and the princes and princes enjoyed a lifetime of wealth and glory during their lifetimes, and they were the most evil after death. ”
"You can see the relief on this lamp, those who walk in front are blindfolded, trapped their hands, gagged, they don't know what the end of this road is, and the feudal shackles, no one will resist, they can only go forward under the violent threat of the person who stretches out his hand to whip, and the end of the road is the secret room where we just now, the reason why the passage is built so high is that people can enter, and they will not come out......" Yan Jing finished speaking, and looked at the secret room behind him, There was finally a look of unbearability on his face.
I couldn't help but look behind me, and from where we were standing now, the dark secret room was even more chilling, and the people who entered there were starving to death nine times out of ten.
"And where does the other side of the road lead?" I looked at the other side of the passage, feeling a little hairy, but also with an inexplicable excitement.
"Let's take a look at the ......," Yan Jing finished speaking, and then quickened his pace and kept up with the team in front.
