Chapter 684: The Bronze Mirror of the Human Face
Look at the items in the shed, it is to make people's hearts chill, shuddering, only to see that among those items are mostly some round wooden piers, and there are many traces left by the blades on the wooden piers, and even one or two wooden piers on the old fast knives with fast edges, so far I think about it, and I also know what the role of these fast knives is.
"These brutes have no humanity." Gao Chao couldn't help it, so he scolded.
Xia Qing wiped away her tears, but soon shed again: "I didn't expect that this is actually a platform for performing sacrifices, and it seems that these children were killed here." ”
The fat man also sighed: "I really wish I could be born in that era, Lao Tzu had to take someone to lift these turtle grandchildren." ”
Wang Lianba and Hua Ye also felt miserable, and they were both a little sad.
Gao Chao looked at the objects on the platform, and then looked at the wooden shed on it, and suddenly saw something shining at the very top of the wooden shed.
He hurriedly said to the fat man beside him: "Fat man, look at it, what is reflecting on the top?" ”
The fat man squinted and said, "Yo, you have good eyes, there seems to be a bronze mirror hanging there, right?" ”
Xia Qing also looked over there: "It seems to be really a copper mirror, but the size of this bronze mirror is not small, it is the size of a human face." ”
Hua Ye took a look at it and said: "The position of this bronze mirror seems to be the entire burial ditch, is there anything else to say about this bronze mirror?" ”
Gao Chao thought for a while and suddenly came to his senses: "I understand, this bronze mirror may be used to deter the souls of the dead in this burial ditch, maybe those black figures, the purpose they let us come here is this bronze mirror." ”
Xia Qing was stunned: "Then what are you going to do?" ”
Gao Chao took a step forward and had already stepped on the platform: "What else can I do?" I'm going to take this thing off it. ”
The fat man also jumped on the platform in one step: "Old Gao, be careful, I see that this wooden shed is already bad, don't collapse it again." ”
Gao Chao dragged the wooden shed twice with his hand, and felt that it was quite strong, so he nodded and carefully flipped it up from one side.
Fortunately, this wooden shed is quite stable, the fat man and the flower master, as well as Wang Lianba, one of them held on to a wooden pillar, very afraid that the wooden shed would collapse, Gao Chao used the fastest speed on the wooden shed to come to the bottom of the bronze mirror.
He shone the bronze mirror with a diving lamp, and couldn't help but be startled, his body trembled, and he almost fell off the wooden shed.
Xia Qing observed on the side, saw Gao Chao's actions, and hurriedly shouted: "Old Gao, be careful, what's wrong?" ”
Gao Chao stabilized his emotions, and after careful observation, he still broke out in a cold sweat: "This mirror is not only the size of a human face, but also has a human face on it." ”
"What?" Xia Qing didn't quite understand Gao Chao's words.
Gao Chao said: "The mirror is flat and can reflect light, but I don't know what process is used for this mirror, as long as it is illuminated with a lamp, a human face will appear on it, which scared me just now." ”
The fat man was holding on to the pillar below, and couldn't help but say: "Such an awesome high-tech, Lao Gao, you should take it off quickly, go back and get Hua Ye's auction house to try it, I can't change to a Rolls-Royce and drive it." ”
Gao Chao ignored the fat man, this time he didn't use a diving lamp to illuminate, but directly observed, in the faint blue light, everything is as usual, it seems that as long as there is strong light in this human face bronze mirror, it will show the outline of the human face, which is really difficult to understand.
So in order to calm down and not see the human face again, Gao Chao climbed up to the highest wooden shed where the bronze mirror was located and took it off from it.
This bronze mirror really has some weight, so Gao Chao took it off, quickly wrapped it in a tarp he carried with him, and then threw it to Xia Qing, who was waiting below.
Because the weight was not light, Xia Qing really almost didn't catch it, and then Gao Chao jumped down, and everyone left the platform, so he took off the tarp on the bronze mirror and observed it together.
Xia Qing held the bronze mirror in his hand and observed, and couldn't help but sigh: "The production process is really amazing, far ahead of the unearthed copper mirror of the same period, especially the carving on the back, you see, it seems to be nine dragons." ”
Gao Chao was not interested in the carving on the back, he had always been afraid of the human face on the front of the bronze mirror, but in this way, the front of the bronze mirror was just a smooth mirror, and in the faint blue light, it could only reflect their own appearance.
The fat man asked curiously, "Lao Gao, where is the face you are talking about?" ”
Gao Chao wanted them to see it too, so he said, "If you want to see it, just use a diving lamp to look in the mirror, and I promise you can see it." ”
The fat man pouted, but still took a step back: "Which of you will take a picture, I'll just stand here and take a look." ”
Hua Ye shook his head: "It's better not to look at it, don't be in any danger, if this bronze mirror is only used to deter and suppress the unjust souls in this burial ditch, then let's take it away and let these unjust souls be at peace." ”
Gao Chao thought about it and nodded: "It's okay, this bronze mirror is indeed a little strange, it's better to wrap it in a cloth first, and then study it after you go out." ”
So everyone listened to Gao Chao and Hua Ye's advice, wrapped the bronze mirror in a tarp, and put it in his diving bag that he had just found on the hillside.
Gao Chao and Xia Qing's diving bags were taken away by the fake ones before, and they were found again on the hillside, and the things in them were the same, which was one of the evidences that those figures had no ill will towards them.
When Gao Chao and everyone left the burial ditch, they also stood next to them and mourned for a minute, and Gao Chao prayed silently in his heart, hoping that these souls buried here could get rid of their pain and rest in peace as soon as possible.
Just as they were about to leave here after their silent mourning, the fat man suddenly exclaimed, "My grass, those white bones are moving." ”
Everyone was startled, and they all looked in the direction pointed by the fat man, only to see that the white bones were really moving, as if something was about to emerge from under the white bones.
Gao Chao was nervous, so he picked up the 95 bar, but when he looked closely, he found that although the white bones were moving, they were not lifted by something below, but sparkling in the white bones, and a clear spring water actually appeared.
Everyone could not help but stand by, only to see that the clear spring water came out from under the white bones, quietly gathered into a stream, and slowly flowed out along the whole valley, and after a while, those white bones were submerged in the whole stream, and it was difficult to see them again.
But the stream was even clearer and more beautiful in the faint blue light, as gentle as a transparent gauze, silently telling of sorrow and sorrow.
Looking at such a clear stream that suddenly appeared, Gao Chao actually felt an inexplicable sadness, he seemed to suddenly understand, maybe this is not a stream born in the mountains, maybe this is the tears of those unjust souls, it is their tears that converge into a stream, so clear and gentle.
Tears flowed, and the pain in his heart dissipated, and Gao Chao sighed, turned and walked up the hillside.
Everyone turned away in silence, leaving only the silent brook behind them. (To be continued.) )
