Chapter 8: Sacrificial Red Sieve Urn
On Wang Roar's side, because of the previous agreement, we didn't dare to make any moves, and even when we went back, it was according to the agreement, Wang Roar was notified by radio at a distance of three or five hundred meters from the vehicle. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
After waiting for a while, Wang Roar finally removed the so-called "trick thunder", and he informed me of "safety" through the walkie-talkie before everyone returned to the station.
At this time, it was already in the wane.
I looked at the sun that was gradually sinking in the west, and knew that there was no time for me, so I hurriedly took Ah Dog and Ah Mao to burn the fire and brush the basin, and prepared a snake meat feast, while the Golden Fleece got into the car and tinkered with his equipment......
In short, everyone was busy in the time before nightfall, but there was joy in the busyness, and this was probably the most relaxed time for our nerves since we entered the mountain.
At that time, I was very busy with dogs and cats, first using miscellaneous firewood and stones to set up the "cross pit" of the wild stove, and then took out the big pot that was originally going to cook instant noodles to boil water.
But at this time, Hyun Hongye, a sensitive woman, called me over again, saying that she wanted to show me her "discovery".
"What discovery?" I was surprised.
"Do you remember the jar we took out of the cave tunnel?" Hyun Hongye reminded.
I immediately remembered the clay pots inside the human corpses, wrapped in stalactites.
The ancients who were nailed to the cave wall, with the loss of time, only the empty shell composed of stalactites remained, and even the iron armor that once wrapped them turned into thick rust, but the clay pot in their body unexpectedly got rid of the torture of time, and only wrapped a thick layer of stalactites on the outside.
Since Hyun Hongye returned, he has been experimenting with how to open the jar, and apparently he has succeeded now, and he has gained something.
With a curiosity, I followed Xian Hongye back to the off-road vehicle, ready to uncover the secret of the jar, but before leaving, I was afraid that A dog and a cat would steal raw snake meat, so I told Lin Shaosong to take a good look at the two of them, and never give them a chance to steal food, otherwise we will eat the larvae into our brains, and we will have no tools to open their heads.
Then I saw the jars in the car that we had taken out of the Dead Man's Cave.
When I calmed down and looked at it, we had time to carefully look at the jars we brought back, except for the one I took out, and then everyone found four more one after another, and these five jars were now stacked on the food box in the car, and they had been carefully removed by Hyun Hongye with a tool, revealing a glassy red glaze.
I looked at these jars, and I was quite curious for a moment.
On the whole, these jars are basically oval with a flat top of the head, and the top is quite smooth, but each jar has countless dense prototype holes, those holes are as large as the thickness of the little finger, and the small ones are only the size of a needle's eye, which is obviously a trace left by artificiality.
The whole jar was like honeycomb coal, inside and out, and I couldn't understand it when I looked at this strange pottery.
"What's this?" I scratched my head and said, "A jar the size of a fist, with holes on the top, let everything leak out." ”
Hyun Hongye is a student of literature and history, and I thought he would tell me something specific about this "sieve urn", but unfortunately, Hyun Hongye also shook his head and said that he didn't understand what it was.
However, people have ink in their stomachs, and although they don't know the specific purpose and name of this thing, they still get some rare information from the production method of this small object.
He first told me that this thing is actually black pottery, but on the red glaze, so it shows a unique sauce red luster, black pottery is a relatively primitive pottery, found all over China, Xian Hongye's grandfather Xianyundu left behind Ailao ancient porcelain also has similar black pottery Suiping, but since the Ming Dynasty, this kind of pottery has been basically abandoned, into modern times, but only in southwest Yunnan and Kang-Tibet and other remote areas have part of the inheritance.
Compared with the primitive black pottery, the red glaze of this "sieve urn" is very clever, although it is pottery, but it is a unique "sacrificial red" glazing technology of the Ming Dynasty, and the glaze is smooth, which can be called exquisite.
It can be said that this "sieve" is a "hodgepodge"-like freak.
Speaking of which, Xian Hongye summed it up in a nutshell: "This sieve urn is so strange, he combines the very primitive 'black pottery firing' technology with the very advanced 'sacrificial red porcelain glaze' technology, which is unpredictable. ”
I don't understand Xian Hongye's words, I really don't know what a "black pottery" is called a "sacrificial red", let alone understand what it means.
Simply, I said to Xian Hongye: "Yezi, I don't understand a word about what you say so much, can you tell me something I understand?" ”
Seeing that I didn't understand, Xian Hongye thought about it, and then put forward a hypothesis about the connection between Heilan Bo City, Miaojiang Goddess Flower and Ailao Ancient Kingdom.
First of all, before we came out of the Yaowang Temple, we listened to the past and legends of Zhao Gong, and from the legends, we learned a very important piece of information, that is, many years ago, there was a southern "remnant" who migrated from a far away place to the current Furong River.
With the help of some kind of force, these "relics" and the surrounding ethnic groups had a big war, and the result of the war was very cruel, this fierce nation is likely to be uprooted by the army and the locals, leaving only a piece of ruins that was built in the Ming Dynasty, which is the so-called "Black Lamber City".
In Heilan Bo City, Xian Hongye's grandfather Xian Yundu once found a lot of relics similar to the ancient Ailao Kingdom, and most of those relics were products of the Ming Dynasty, so it is more certain that these "Heilan Bo people" are the remnants of the ancient Ailao Kingdom of the Ming Dynasty.
According to the current excavation of these five pottery with the characteristics of Ailao Kingdom and the Ming Dynasty, Xian Hongye has further inferred about what will happen to the remnants of Ailao.
She felt that after the ancient Ailao people migrated to Furong River, they probably came into contact with other advanced civilizations, and the two fused, and finally produced a "subspecies" between the Ailao culture and the Central Plains civilization. They combined ancient "witchcraft" with relatively modern techniques, and finally this unique "religious culture" of "nailing" people to the wall and burying "clay pots" in the bodies of the dead emerged. But what the purpose of this religious culture is, it is not known.
Hearing this, I barely understood a little, and after staring at these broken jars for a long time, I had to ask Hyun Hongye again: "Then what is in this jar?!" Can it be opened? ”
Hyun Momiji nodded, put on his gloves, and prepared to unscrew the jar again and show it to me.
