Chapter 233: Soul Carving
Uncle Ming told us about Ah Xiang's past experience, which even mentioned that Ah Xiang's biological parents used the method from the secret text of Tibet, which must have something to do with the "Later Reincarnation Sect", when the British invaded Tibet, they plundered a large number of precious cultural relics and classics, and the ciphertext scriptures of the "Later Reincarnation Sect" flowed overseas during that period, and it is not surprising that Uncle Ming had a similar experience with the book that recorded the glacier crystal corpse, but although Uncle Ming had an eye of the heart, he did not know this "eye" The detailed ins and outs of the mystery, he himself also talked about these things, only to think of the kind of ancient books that are regarded by modern people as the secret method of opening the heavenly eye, which may be related to this "Yaluo Sea City", after the destruction of the demon country, the wind of worshipping the eyes in Tibet is rare, so this mysterious method of resting and opening the heavenly eyes is very likely to be used by the demon country to screen the ghost mother, although it has long been impossible to confirm, but it can be asserted that at least this secret method has also evolved from the Karamir region.
I can't help but admire Shirley Yang's carefulness, she has already seen some clues, the reason why I asked Uncle Ming Ah Xiang about the past is to understand the secret hidden in this mysterious colossus from another angle, the blood line on Ah Xiang's pupils is almost the same as the totem here, there is a kind of microsecond connection between this, the dazzling mark on the stone gate, the stone pillars in the underground canyon, these gloomy and oppressive stone houses, and Ah Xiang pointed to the wall and said that there was a woman there, sorted out these clues, Maybe you can know the truth here.
Although we thought that this place might be used to imprison and kill those women who did not have ghost eyes, I had a big question from the beginning, and I never had time to say to Shirley Yang, since it was to kill these people, why bother to build such a huge project, is it similar to the previous rules of the Central Plains Dynasty, and the execution of prisoners will have to wait until the autumn to ask for beheading? It seems that there is no need for this at all, this colossus cannot be repaired if it is not for hundreds of years, what is it used for?
Now in a desperate situation, I still hope that things will turn around, Shirley Yang has not given up the belief in living, as long as we figure out what kind of space this space is, maybe we can find a way to survive, although I know that there is a way to escape here Unless there is a miracle, the taste of sitting still is even worse. Just listen to the sound of poisonous snakes on the stone slab instigating to swim away, less than half an hour, they have already followed, there is only one entrance here to enter, although there is a stone slab block, the snakes can not enter in a short time, but we have not eaten or drunk how long can we last?
Everyone heard that the snakes had reached the bottom layer, and everyone who saw the black snake felt cold, and it was inevitable that they were a little panicked, and Uncle Ming was not in the mood to continue talking about Ah Xiang. I persuaded him, let's block the road, these poisonous snakes won't come for a while, Uncle Ming, you go on to tell me what happened to Ah Xiang's blood and tears twice, she also shed blood and tears just now, is there any similarity between this?!
When Uncle Ming heard me say this, he felt that it was the same reason, so he said, those things are still often nightmares! When I made a lot of money, I wanted to buy a decent house, and I fell in love with a house, the environment and location were good, the style was very elegant, and the price was also very suitable, so I was about to settle down and buy it, because the whole family went together, and the two sons and Ah Xiang were with me, and I didn't expect Ah Xiang to see the house, and two lines of blood and tears flowed out of her eyes.
Uncle Ming knew that Ah Xiang would feel afraid and uncomfortable when he arrived in a place with heavy yin qi, so he hesitated slightly, and entrusted the matter of buying a house for a few days, and used these days to find someone to learn some about the inside story of this house, the owner of the house is a widow, very rich, has lived here for more than ten years, but it is also safe, but she died suddenly a few days ago, she has no relatives at home, and several cats have died for no reason on the same day, and even people with cats, are bleeding, but not poisoned to death, The cause of death has not been released to the police.
There is another time, Uncle Ming once received a porcelain jar, the fetus is white and transparent, round and soft, the white glaze is slightly flashing yellow buds, the decoration is the eight treasures of the sea beast, and there are some special flower prints on the inside of the lid, but this thing is fished out of the sea, and it flows to Hong Kong, the surface is seriously eroded by the sea, and there are a lot of coral cocoons hanging outside, and the original advantages are all covered, and it is not worth much at all, but this porcelain jar is well preserved, and the main thing is that there are many human skulls in it, Because everyone in the industry knows that Mingjing Opera is mainly engaged in the "bone dong" business, and they are very interested in the scarf of ancient corpses, they don't know if these brains and bones can be collected, so they show it to him. Uncle Ming has never seen this thing, fished out of the sea? What is the use of holding so many dead people's brains? But look at this thing is also a hundreds of years of objects, I'm afraid there are some to the right, but I've never seen it, it's not accurate at all, fortunately, it's not expensive, just give a few money, just leave the thing, just arrived at the door, Ah Xiang shed blood and tears again, Uncle Ming remembered the previous incident, and didn't even dare to enter the house, so he wanted to quickly find a place to throw this thing away, but after all, it was a pity to spend money to take it back, even if it was the original price. So I went to an antique shop with an acquaintance, the owner of the antique shop was very experienced, and when he saw Uncle Ming coming in with such a porcelain jar, he almost beat him out, and pulled him to find a place where no one buried the porcelain jar, and then told him, you sold this thing to me and wanted to harm my whole family? Any idea what this is? The Ming Dynasty Ling Chi executed the dead, after being cut by a thousand knives, even the bones and slag could not be left, and the executioner of the criminal department must be ordered to rub the bones and scatter ashes, that is, after the human flesh is cleaned, heavy weapons must be used. Crush that section of the skeleton to ashes. But most of the executioners of the criminal department are ancestral crafts, and they all have a very secret rule, after Ling Chi was tortured, they secretly left the skull and sealed it in the porcelain bottle, and after the executioner died, the descendants threw the porcelain bottle into the sea, why did it do this? And how did the executioners of the criminal department provide for the skulls of these condemned prisoners? Those are not verifiable, and even these things were only circulated after the Republic of China was executed and known to the world. This jar you received, the punishment he gave in his life, is all contained here, this thing is too fierce, it is easy to attract the disaster of blood and light, I don't know how to raise bones, who dares to put it at home?
Uncle Ming briefly said these two things, Ah Xiang has that kind of sign near this statue, and the look of lost soul has never been seen before, so he said that the yin qi here must be very heavy, and he can't stay at all. But there are so many poisonous snakes down there, where can we hide if we are not here?
I nodded, and understood, there must have been a lot of deaths inside the statue, and they died miserably. Thinking about Ah Xiang's strange actions just now, she said that in the stone wall of the interior of this colossus, starting from the third floor, almost every wall has a woman embedded in it, and if a person bears too much fright, he will either have a nervous breakdown or begin to become numb. I looked at the black stone walls around me, if it was really like Ah Xiang said, just thinking about our situation, I felt suffocated, how many dead people were here?
But what makes me strange is that the grotto inside the Colossus is all one, not the kind of building made of stone bricks layer by layer, so there is no possibility of corpses in the walls, and the walls are all pitch black, and there is no human outline on them. The more I thought about it, the more strange I felt, and I stretched out my arm and touched the wall behind me, if there was also a woman who was executed here, where would she be hidden from this wall?
I stroked the wall lightly, and immediately felt that there were many shallow chiseled marks on the wall, as if some kind of symbol was engraved, but because all the stones were black, if you could only look at it with your eyes, you would not find anything carved on the wall at all, and if you didn't deliberately look at it, you wouldn't necessarily notice those old and messy chisel marks, and I immediately told the rest of the people about this discovery, and it seemed that there was indeed something wrong with the walls in these grottoes.
Uncle Ming immediately became energetic when he heard this, and hurriedly asked if it was a map with a secret passage engraved on the wall? I didn't answer, I still need to keep some sanity at this time, being on the top of the colossus, such as the tower, the area here is only between advance and retreat, where there will be any secret passages to escape, but the symbols carved on the stone wall may record some information such as snake repellent, knowing that this kind of chance is not very large, and even if there is, no one may be able to understand it, but there is still a little more hope in my heart to live.
In order to reveal the shape of the notches on the black stone wall, Shirley Yang collected some whitish fine ash nearby, smeared on the stone wall where there were notches, and the whitish lines gradually appeared in front of everyone, extremely unneat lines, scribbled some bizarre figures, the notches in some places have been worn out and blurred, the only picture that can be identified is the action of a woman on the wall, as if the marks on the wall are carved by women, The chisel marks on this wall are so unclear that we have to look for other wall marks, almost every wall, there are similar chisel symbols and drawings, but the technique and clarity are obviously not done by one person, and they do not seem to belong to the same period, but the content recorded is much the same, and they are all repeated repeats of the event of carving the wall.
After looking at the walls in the four or five grottoes, they finally saw all the contents of the stone carvings, and it can be determined that the stone carvings on each wall are carved by different women, because there is no other relevant evidence, we can only make subjective speculations, they are all those women who did not give birth to "ghost eyes", they will be imprisoned here, and each of them must carve the most impressive things on the wall as a testimony of the afterlife, and then pierce their eyes, and smear the blood in their eyes on the patterns and symbols they have carved, They have completed the last mile of their lives, and finally the female corpses that have been blinded will be tied to the stone pillars in the canyon, and under the bite of the black snake, they will become victims of religious theocracy.
Shirley Yang thoughtfully caressed the wall engraved with the souls of those unfortunate women, and Uncle Ming saw that the stone carvings on the wall only had the blood and cruelty of ancient religious rule, and there was no information for us to escape, so he was immediately angry and walked back and forth in the grotto restlessly.
Shirley Yang suddenly said "Huh" and said to me, "It's strange that there is a strange mark hidden in some stone carvings...... It's very hidden, and this mark is like ......"
I was about to ask her what she had found, but I heard the fat man shout, "No, let's run up, the slate can't stop the poisonous snake." "I heard the sound and looked, only to see that several large stone slabs blocking the entrance suddenly collapsed, the leader of the big snake, the mouth of the red liquid spewed, fell on the ground and gave birth to a red toadstool that quickly withered, the toadstool withered and rotted after a kind of corrosive effect, I don't know when it began, the stones have been rotted and crispy, groups of black snakes followed by the swarming, a slightly smaller black snake is the fastest, arched the snake body and flicked, it jumped up like a black lightning, the fat man has a fast eye, look at the snake jumping in the air, Raised his hand and waved out the sapper shovel, the steel shovel sturdily slapped head-on, the sound was like hitting a pile of iron filings, the black snake's skull was immediately shattered, but the black naked eye on the top of the head was also broken, splashing out countless ink-colored poisonous juice, the fat man hurriedly dodged back, the ink splashed on the ground, and wisps of poisonous smoke came out.
Everyone's faces were frightened white, more black snakes were menacing, and they were constantly surging up, although they knew that the top was also a dead end, but the fire raised their eyebrows, and they had to retreat first, I glanced at it, and found that Shirley Yang was still looking at the symbols on the wall, and he was out of his mind, and he didn't notice the mutations that happened around him, I hurried over, grabbed his arm, pulled her and ran, Shirley Yang was dragged by me to come back to his senses, and said while running: "That's a curse, it's the curse of those women on Evil Luohai City......"
