Chapter Seventy-One: The Eight Treasures

When Momiji observed the eight black tripods, she probably had to hinder her archaeological experience, so she only looked at the inscriptions and depictions on the outside, the bottom of the tripod, and the inside, but she didn't look at it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

But for the cooks of the Five Organs Temple, the inside of the pot is the most important place.

According to the legend in the temple of the five organs, the pots used by cooks in ancient times, especially the more expensive copper pots and stoves, will carve some special patterns and characters on the inner wall of the pot, these things have the effect of deterring evil spirits in ancient times, and have the function of preventing people from stealing pots and changing stoves in modern times.

The cook in the Five Organs Temple saw that the patterns used for identification were engraved on the inside of the pot, so as not to affect the overall appearance of the pot stove, and secondly, not to let those logo patterns be damaged by the external high temperature after being depicted. The third is that the fumes left by cooking food will form a natural protective layer, filled between the patterns, forming a kind of "dark lines" that are not easy to identify, and the dark lines are not easy to see, so when the chefs identify their own stoves, it has become their only unique evidence of their own recognition.

Of course, the rules of the dark lines I am talking about have been handed down many years ago, and they are not very popular, and I don't know how many years they have been passed down until now.

But according to my speculation, if the eight tripods under the Black Lamber City are really related to the ability of the Five Organs Temple, then these eight such important tripods must also have similar dark lines.

This is just speculation, and speculation, requires a complete chain to prove.

So, I climbed to the ding, took out the flashlight, and began to learn the appearance of the virtuous red leaves, carefully looking at the black walls of the ding, hoping to find some clues about the dark lines from it.

And when I entered the ding, when my hand touched the ding, a special touch was transmitted from the top to my fingernails, which once again proved my inner thoughts.

In the interior of the black tripod, there is a layer of grease that is not thin and not thick, and the grease seems to be a protective layer, evenly foaming at the inside of the tripod. Through the grease, my hands can feel a trace of thin lines of unevenness, those unevenness and unevenness are sometimes parallel, sometimes staggered, the lines are smooth and regular, and I only feel that the texture is by no means worn in the later stage, but deliberately done by someone.

In order to verify, I hurriedly took off my clothes and wiped off the muddy layer of mud on the top wall, while my eyes widened to look at the uneven and obscure pattern on the top.

When I wiped about half of the oil sludge off the top with my clothes, a "spectacular" picture appeared in front of my eyes.

There was a river on it, and there were countless boats and people in the river, preying on a big fish, and the fish was so big that I couldn't tell what kind of fish it was, but I could see that the fish in the river had been half dragged onto the boat by the people on the boat, and the fish had been disemboweled, and the scene was spectacular, desolate, and ...... Miserable.

The biggest shock to me about this fish was not that it was big, not that there were so many people who caught him, but that after the fish was thrown out of its stomach, another ...... appeared from inside Turtles?

I was shocked, "The fish has a turtle in its belly...... Isn't this a 'carp monster'? ”

This picture reminds me of the "sieve" in the body of the golden python, and the "deliciousness" that should not grow in the body of snakes and humans.

The carp, also known as the "fish handle", is a parasite that grows in the body of fish and has delicious flesh. This thing has a long history of eating, and it is one of the treasures called "Ghost Eight Treasures" by the ancients.

Because the carp monster is quite similar to the turtle in appearance, it is often called "turtle in fish" in Huogong, which is a more personalized delicacy.

Looking at that picture, I can imagine how shocking it would be to take a huge belly turtle out of the body of such a large fish.

It is no wonder that the ancients in the tripod pattern were dumbfounded at their prey, and those standing on the shore bowed and worshipped.

Looking at that picture, while I was amazed by this flower scroll, I also realized that this is a primitive worship, the most primitive worship expressed by the ancients for the pictures formed by nature.

I suddenly felt that the flower scroll in this tripod was more like a totem...... Or is it an idol?

An interesting idea quickly came into my mind.

But before proving my idea, I didn't say anything, but jumped straight out of the ding, walked to another ding, jumped in again, wiped the oil sludge with the clothes in my hand, and then used a flashlight to shine on the picture scroll there.

Another strange scene appeared in front of my eyes in an instant.

In the picture of the Dingbi, a monster that resembles a monkey but not a monkey sits on a throne, and it looks around at the people who have submitted to him, and under the "monkey beast", the people who are submissive assume a very contradictory pose, that is, they are serving a tray full of some kind of food to the monster's left hand, and on the other side they are cutting the flesh from the monster's right hand and loading it into the tray on the other side.

With a few brushstrokes, the grandeur and weirdness of the whole scene were vividly expressed, and I knew for the first time what the "monster" in the picture was.

I suddenly realized, and said to everyone: "The picture in this tripod is 'Cooking Antu', this tripod with a strange monkey is the first tripod, here while eating delicious, the monster that is eaten by people is called Pi Ling, this guy is the head of the eight treasures of ghosts!" If my guess is correct, in each ding, there is a creature in the Eight Treasures of Ghosts. ”

My words aroused the interest and questions of both the black wolf and the virtuous red leaves, and the two of them almost unanimously asked me: "What is the boiling Antu, can you solve the mystery between these eight tripods and the wall of the dead?" ”

I nodded and told the two men: "Boiling Antu is a picture scroll begging for peace and fortune in the temple of the five internal organs, and he is mostly depicted in the pot stove where a specific diet is cooked. Often, it is a picture of food and the worship of gods. ”

As far as I know, this kind of pattern can only be painted by chefs, and it must be found in old shops and stoves. For example, an old store of the Five Organs Temple that is civilized with mutton products will often find the cooking Antu of "Sanyang Kaitai" in the soup pot that has been inherited for more than three generations, and the painting has no practical effect, mainly used to beg for the prosperity of the business of their own store, and the food made is full of color, flavor and flavor.

To put it bluntly, it's just a good win.

The ancients in the city of Heilan Bo knew the doorway in the "Zhou Food Prohibition Law", although they were not from the Five Organs Temple, but I feel that these people are better than the cooks of the Five Organs Temple, and the last Su King was so superstitious, so it is not surprising that all the formal principles are done in accordance with the doorway in the "Zhou Food Prohibition Law".

Although I haven't read that ancient book, I already know in my heart that the cauldron I just jumped into may not have been the first of the eight treasures of the ghost to cook in the past.

(From today onwards, try to make three changes every day, finish the eating spell as soon as possible, and accelerate the new chapter, I hope you will support the new book of Cricket and Cicada, thank you.) )
