Chapter 342: See Bronze Chains Again
"Don't you die somewhere, washed by the water, right?" Tian Xiaoqi was a crow's mouth, and he smiled when he saw the silk scarf with a mouthful of yellow teeth. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although I wanted to smoke him, reason told me that what he said was not true: "It should not be possible, the size of the scarf, and the pumping force of this drain is so weak, if it is too far away, it should not be possible." ”
"Let's take a look around and see if there's anything else?" Lu Nuonuo said.
We followed Lu Nuonuo's words, swept around with a flashlight, and found that there was nothing in the surrounding water, and at this moment, Tian Xiaoqi, who was shining a flashlight on the other side, suddenly shouted in a low voice: "Look, there are marks on this earthen wall!" It was left behind by our people. ”
Lu Nuonuo and I looked over at the same time, and sure enough, we saw a tall building opposite, painted with an ancient text pattern with the liquid of a glow stick, and an arrow next to it.
Obviously, though, the glowstick liquid has been exposed to the air for a long time, and the light stored in it has long since diverged, so we didn't see it at all when we came in. But fortunately, under the light of the wolf's eye flashlight, it only emitted a faint fluorescence again.
"What does this ancient symbol mean?" I pointed to the seal that looked like two tripods stacked on top of each other and asked Lu Nuonuo.
"This is the multi-horned seal writing of our Lu family's surname." Lu Nuonuo's expression was a little solemn.
I heard that it was the mark left by their Lu family, and I said impatiently: "Then what are we waiting for, hurry in?" "I can't wait to get into the main tomb early and dig up everything I want to know.
Tian Xiaoqi's face was also a little bad, and I asked the two of them what was going on. Why didn't the two of them speak.
"This mark is not left casually, under normal circumstances, the Lu family goes to work in the field, and they all leave after the dragon is cleared, and there are only two situations to leave a mark."
"The first is that the tomb is too big. In order to facilitate the next batch of people to smoothly follow the previous batch of joints, so leave a mark. Lu Nuonuo pointed to the irregular mark drawn on it, and said with an ugly face: "We obviously don't belong to the first type now, because this mark is too sloppy, which is really not in line with the Lu family's temperament." ”
"So what's the second scenario?" I asked.
Tian Xiaoqi's tone was a little heavy, and he said lightly: "The second situation is that the previous team suffered an immeasurable blow, and leaving this mark is to warn those who come after him not to move forward." ”
I have long guessed this conclusion.
After all, the Lu family is a family that has been promoted by doing underground trading, and they generally pay attention to clean and neat things, and they will not drag mud and water, let alone leave flaws. There is a high chance that this kind of thing will betray their family's information, so it will not be left easily.
The tomb we are in now is indeed very dangerous, the Lu family did not leave a mark on the side of the tomb before, it is enough to see that the heritage of the great family is indeed extraordinary, and even the tomb of so many people who died is not a place worth leaving a mark, so how dangerous is the depth of the ancient tomb next?
I really can't imagine it, but now that we've come to this point, it's impossible to go back, so we can only move on.
Lu Nuonuo knew better than me what to do next, and after we identified the direction, we walked directly towards a majestic underground review building in front of us.
Walking up the tall stone steps of the review building, we finally got rid of the pain of being soaked in the water in the cemetery.
The stone wall in front is very old, and there are a large number of bronze door nails inlaid on the stone door in the front, I was going to reach out and touch these door nails with grimaces and different shapes, but I was pulled by Lu Nuonuo.
"Don't mess around."
I didn't understand Lu Nuonuo's caution, at this time, Tian Xiaoqi had already discovered something abnormal, stepped forward, took out the anti-wolf electric shocker, and clicked on the door nail.
Suddenly, the blue electric light made a clattering electric sound, and then from the position of the belly held by the ghost hand on the door nail of the ghost's head, a black thing fell out, and the mucus inside flowed out, emitting a familiar earthy smell.
I was shocked, only then did I know that these murderous invisible parasitic Gu worms were actually hidden in the door nails, this kind of biological defense technology, at that time, was definitely a cross-era product, I even imagined that if the owner of this tomb hid this kind of insect in a treasure and gave it to the person he wanted to kill, would he successfully dominate.
It's a pity that history is history, and this bug must have some kind of flaw, otherwise, the civilization where this tomb is located would not have disappeared into the wind.
After we gave up the main entrance, we all went through a hole in the wall that had been blown up by the people in front of us.
The hole in the ground is not very regular, it looks more like it was blown up in a panic after two or three consecutive openings with explosives, and the cat's waist has been walking for a long time, and I even have some doubts that the person who opened this hole has blown up the side wall of the urn city, so it is necessary to go so far.
But I don't think we can explore it, because we shouldn't have time to study what's going on inside the walls.
After walking for a long time, we finally managed to transport the backpack and Lao Mo out of the cave, and the surrounding bonfire braziers had been lit by those who had entered before us, and the light from the flames illuminated the surrounding landscape.
A large number of stone instruments, as well as a large tunnel, suggest that it appears to be a stone foundry.
It is said that it is a stone casting field, but it is actually a bit shocking, there are a large number of human figurines hanging in the air here, and the bodies of these people seem to be completely wrapped in some kind of gelatin, and then put on all kinds of strange poses, there are crawling, crawling, running, shouting, and so on.
These people looked like amber, hooked by bronze locks on a certain part of their bodies, suspended in the air, and the shadows of the figurines were pulled by the light of the fire, as if the twisted souls could not be separated from the body and struggled in pain.
Seeing such a strange scene, I couldn't help but feel a little hairy standing on end, although I knew a little about the living animal sacrifice that was still popular in the Western Zhou Dynasty, but I still didn't expect that this would be such a terrifying scene.
"The cemetery is a place for the deceased to rest, and it looks like a cemetery here, but it is more like a tortured hell." Although Tian Xiaoqi was bold, he was still frightened enough by this scene, and said scoldingly.
"During the Western Zhou Dynasty, there were a few small countries that still retained a primitive and backward slave society, and these tragic deaths were most likely prisoners of other tribes at that time, and they were hung here to torture and enjoy the pleasure of the tomb owner. At that time, their status was most likely inferior to that of a cow or a dog. Lu Nuonuo said.
Although what Lu Nuonuo said is very reasonable, I don't think so, after seeing the ruins of Gu Sushen and Shabalam, I am highly sensitive to the connection between these ancient tombs! If I hadn't seen the vessels with the bodies hanging from them, I probably wouldn't have such associations.
However, now that I have seen these frequent bronze chains, I know that behind these figurines there must be a more mysterious purpose...... (To be continued.) )
