Chapter 65, The Secret of the Bronze Tripod
As soon as I heard the master say that there were not many charms in my hand, I was a little impatient in my heart, and hurriedly swung the umbrella sword to slash, but I also lost my accuracy because of this, and a soul suppression corpse that had just rushed up was cut off and suddenly retreated, dodging my attack, and flashed into a corner of the mural, at a distance from me.
I thought that I could get rid of one and count it as one, so I broke away from Nini and the little monk, and chased the corpse of the soul suppressor with the broken arm to the side of the mural wall. At this moment, the soul suppression corpse is floating on the six-legged copper dome cover, staring at me fiercely, and the black blood flows from the broken arm, but that thing doesn't seem to care at all, I have forgotten that they are corpses, and I don't know the pain.
The Soul Suppression Corpse may have felt the breath of a living person, and it actually stared at me and roared viciously, and then put its feet on the lid to borrow strength, and grabbed me with the only remaining hand. Its power was surprisingly great, and under this gaze, it actually pushed the lid of the black copper tripod back from the top of the black tripod.
The afterlife of the soul suppression corpse is swift, and I am leaning against the mural wall behind me at the moment, and it is difficult to dodge this blow, but at this moment I also understand that this thing is fierce and ferocious, and it is almost violent after feeling the yang energy, even if I dodge it temporarily, I have to catch up and grab a few pieces of meat for me, and bite me a few bites.
The umbrella sword in my hand was extremely sharp, and I was fearless in my heart without dodging, and I was just about to raise the umbrella sword to split it in half, but at this time, a soul-calming corpse floated out from the left side and bit at me. I'm thinking it's too late to dodge, it's really afraid of something, there are wolves in front of you and tigers in the back, and the house leak is raining overnight.
But at this moment, the soul suppression corpse on the left side is coming violently and quickly, and only a foul smell can be smelled at the end of the nose, and the soul suppression corpse with a strange mouth has pounced on my face.
I picked up the umbrella sword and chopped it over, directly cutting off half of the head of the soul suppression corpse on the left, and at this time, the soul suppression corpse in front had already rushed to it, so I had to grab the umbrella sword from my waist and open it up, and use the umbrella surface to block it. Unexpectedly, the other party was infinitely powerful, and the power of the attack did not decrease at all, and he knocked me to the ground with an umbrella sword.
I put away the umbrella sword and kicked it over, kicking it backwards with the force of its blow, and then quickly got up from the ground, and before the soul corpse could stand up, I swung the umbrella sword and chopped it on. On the snow-white wall, a large black blood stain was suddenly left.
Due to the fact that he was in a hurry just now, he coincidentally cut off his other arm, and instead of completely destroying it, he held the umbrella sword and scolded and wanted to chop off its head, but I heard a sudden rumbling metal rolling sound from its back, as if something huge was crushing towards me.
I thought to myself, what the hell is this, with the lesson just now, this time I didn't dare to hold it up, and quickly threw myself forward to the left and rolled on the ground and stood up, a huge black lid rolled next to me like a wheel, I took a closer look, it turned out to be the six-legged lid.
The corpse of the Soul Suppression, who had just severed its hands on the wall, struggled to stand up, and was hit by the rolling of the Dingli, and with a loud bang, a large amount of black blood splattered on the entire mural wall. It had been smashed into a pile of flesh by the heavy lid, and its head had shattered like a watermelon on the wall, and it was no longer possible to tell where the head was and where the wall was, except for the pungent smell all over the ground.
As the saying goes, evil is rewarded with evil, good is rewarded with good, and the way of heaven is a blatant cycle of cause and effect, this soul-suppressing corpse must have done a lot of evil in his previous life, and he only cared about rushing to catch me, but he didn't expect to be crushed into meat by the lid that he stared at.
The fight in the hall was still ringing, Nini and the little monk were on guard back to back, and the master was solving more than a dozen fierce soul suppression corpses, and was killing three or four fish that slipped through the net. I saw that everyone was out of danger, so I let out a sigh of relief, and put away the umbrella sword that I had just knocked out in the soul suppression corpse and pinned it to my waist.
After checking his body, except for the fall just now, he was not caught by those soul-suppressing corpses, so he planned to help the master, but when he got together, he saw a terrifying scene. The six-legged bronze tripod that lost the lid of the tripod, the white flowers in it, were all some kneeling hands together in a hundred postures, facing the naked bodies of men, women and children crying, there were as many as seventeen or eighteen in the big tripod.
The corpses were no more than three years old, and they were all piled up, and the copper tripod was filled with a lot of antiseptic drugs and resins, and although the corpses were protected, there were many mercury spots on them, which were even more obvious soon after they came into contact with the air.
I looked at the corpses of the children, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of anger, pity, and even more pity in my heart, these children had obviously been poured with mercury alive, and then sealed with resin, and some of them were completely wrapped in resin and looked as crystal clear as amber.
It's really a matter of Nini to say it, this is obviously a pair of sacrifices, but these children who are coated with resin are really pitiful, but after seeing these children, I just felt a little bit of the horror and cruelty of the King of Bashu, these children should be the descendants of the Guizi people after not being captured, the adults were captured to build a mausoleum, and even the children of a few years old could not escape the doom.
As early as in the history, it was recorded that Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of the Great Qin Empire, was in pursuit of immortality and the child refining medicine, but there is no detailed record in the wild history, Qin Shi Huang's cruelty and the pursuit of immortality are many records, but there are some and some are not in the practice of medicine with children, anyway, it is a confusing topic.
And here, right in front of us, the corpses of more than a dozen children are placed in front of us, the ancients liked to use the Ding to cook people to sacrifice to the gods of heaven and earth, and the cooked people can not be ordinary slaves, more boys and girls, otherwise it will be considered disrespectful to the gods. But looking at all the historical records, except for the first emperor who used children to refine medicine, there is no emperor who has been recorded to sacrifice the heavens with boys and girls, and it seems that the king of Bashu has died before he finally has time to hold the ceremony of changing his tomb and worshipping the sky, so the boys and girls in this big tripod have not come in handy.
I thought about the sinister smile of the ghost in the corner of the palace just now, whether it wanted to prevent us from opening this tripod, could there be any unsavory secret in this tripod? Or is the ghost a relative of one of these children, and the mother who has turned into a ghost doesn't want us to see their children in such a miserable state? But these children were killed by such cruel means at such a young age, just thinking about it makes people's hearts chill, I knew that who would take another look at it!
