Chapter Ninety-Seven: Figures
"So vicious!" "This *** is what a tyrant did, let's go down and dig up his nest, crush his bones and scatter ashes, and it can be regarded as avenging the doll."
Touching those chains, the patina is stained, and I can still imagine how bloody it was when I close my eyes through this vicissitudes of life. Killing, blood, death, this was the main theme at that time, and it was not in vain that all legends were about to destroy that civilization with a great flood, and the evil of human nature really disappeared with history in these ancient ruins?
"The ancients were like this, the sacrificial objects were not chickens, ducks, fish and meat now, but people. Women, children, prisoners of war, in the ancient period of barbarism, survival was the only purpose, the ruler needed blood to stimulate the hormones of those warriors, these were all sacrifices, and the sins were not only staged here, but in every land of the world. ”
I said, "Elder Gu has a lot of knowledge, do you understand the meaning here?" ”
"Snake, the ancients worshipped this creature, not only in Asia, but also in Africa, in Egypt, isn't Nuwa a snake with a human face? The snake is the closest totem to the dragon, and in my opinion, the remains of this snake were captured by the priests, but they just pity the child. ”
"How about it, Bosses, are we going down? Or continue to see the scenery here? The fat man's words reminded me, I looked at my watch, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, and there were only nine hours left before seven o'clock in the morning agreed with Long Ye, and I also said: "Everyone, it's too late, but everything that we don't want to do with our goal will be over." ”
The fat man glanced at the hollow of the pillar and was already scratching his scalp: "What's going on with this thing, that little brother, have you ever been here, how did you go down at that time?" ”
Ye Qiu looked down, and I looked at his expression a little embarrassed, "I forgot, it's just a vague mirror image, it seems to go on like this." ”
"Wow, isn't it, little brother, I see if you have learned gecko skills if you are extraordinary, this is not as good as the sewers outside, if you can't hold it, you will die."
Cha Wenbin proposed: "Let's use a rope, how long is the rope we carry?" ”
I said, "No more than thirty meters, I just threw a stone to listen to the sound, and I guess our rope is not long enough." ”
Ye Qiu proposed: "This pillar is only about twenty meters, I think if there is a dungeon, it shouldn't be too deep from the ground, let me go down first." ”
Cha Wenbin agreed with Ye Qiu's statement and agreed: "That's fine, after all, he is flexible." "I fastened the rope to the root of the tree above my head, and it was strong enough that the rest of it hung out of the pillar. Ye Qiu chose to head down, but he didn't plan to leave a way back for himself, in case something happened, it would be difficult to go up.
The fat man reminded: "You ......"
"I want to see the danger and not let it come behind me."
He wrapped the rope around his waist, hooked the rope with his feet and made a circle, and he slid down like a monkey.
Ye Qiu's speed of descent was extremely fast, and he couldn't see others clearly for a while, at most half a minute, he sent us a signal below, and the flashlight flashed three times towards it.
The fat man said, "It's safe, let's go!" ”
I thought about it a lot, Gu Lao and Cha Wenbin both have a bit of a literati temperament, this kind of work is really a little inappropriate, I was afraid that there would be danger, so I proposed: "Either Wenbin and Gu Lao will stay, this kind of thing is really not suitable for the two of you." ”
Cha Wenbin said: "Gu Lao stayed, age and physical strength are both problems, and it is good to take care of us above." In addition, you also stay, fat man, in case we need someone to pull below, you have the most strength here, and the diameter of this pillar is not large, so it is not so convenient for you to enter. ”
"It's really not suitable for me to go down this old bone, you can just help me take some pictures and bring them back." As he spoke, he handed the camera to Cha Wenbin, who took it and glanced at me and said, "Xiao Yi followed me." ”
"Okay." I promised, if I thought that day if I really went down, maybe I wouldn't have the opportunity to sit here today and talk to you about Kan Dashan, fate is arranged like this, everything is doomed.
It is necessary and necessary to leave two people above, Gu Lao is too old, and there is another person who is responsible for rope safety, this idea is right. But how could he be willing to stay on it, if he could be honest, then he wouldn't be fat.
Just when I was about to go down, the fat man sneaked in one step ahead of me, and when he parted, he looked at me with a smile and said: "Xiao Xia Ye, you are also a cultural person, don't get involved in this kind of thing, the fat man is doing this business, no matter how suitable it is for you." ”
His plans changed, not because I didn't want to go down, but because I had to stay and keep them all safe.
"Be careful, take care of Wen Bin!" This is my last message to him.
Later, I heard from Cha Wenbin that there was a layer of mud down there that could reach my ankles, so I didn't make a sound when I threw the stones, and everything in them should have been soaked in water.
The area and surface of the entire underground palace are actually generally large, according to Cha Wenbin, there are countless riches piled up in it, and those silt are all glittering when they are scooped up, which can make the fat man happy. One on his left hand, one on his right hand, and the places that can fit up and down his body are stuffed to the brim, and he is a nouveau riche.
The underground palace is relatively flat, on both sides are some figurines, each standing in a row, it is very strange that those figurines do not have heads, and there are parts on the ground that have not fallen, as if the heads were not burned in the first place. Follow the figurines to the past, in the middle is a road, at the end of the road is a coffin**, the coffin** is slightly higher than the ground, you can see it with the naked eye, it is only a few dozen meters away, children can run there in one breath.
Cha Wenbin told me that it was the largest coffin he had ever seen, and that I had been with him to the museum in Changsha, where there was a complete Mawangdui female corpse. The coffin of the female corpse was as high as one and a half floors, and the whole body was made of wood, without a single nail, but he said that the coffin below was probably twice as large as the female corpse in Mawangdui!
It was very quiet in the dungeon, except for the fat man's "hehe" smirk, Ye Qiu and Cha Wenbin were silent.
Intuition, this is a very strange sixth sense, some people are very accurate, but I belong to the category of poor intuition, but Cha Wenbin and Ye Qiu both belong to the former.
Danger, danger is everywhere here! The two of them glanced at each other, not daring to take a step easily, Cha Wenbin whispered to the fat man: "Don't touch a single grass or tree here." ”
The fat man was a little reluctant and reluctantly threw out the things in his pocket, and then Cha Wenbin instantly felt that the depressed breath was half relieved. He took out three sticks of incense and lit them, one handed to the fat man, and one to Ye Qiu, but Ye Qiu just glanced at it and didn't accept it, he said: "I only believe in myself, God can't take care of me." ”
Cha Wenbin didn't say much, just raised the incense above his head and bowed three times and said: "It's really helpless to take the liberty of disturbing the rest of the ancestors, if you are offended by your visit today, please bear with me." The cause of the previous life has today's fruit, since I was arranged, it can be regarded as a fate separated by thousands of years. ”
Then he pulled the fat man and bowed three times towards the coffin, Ye Qiu had been staring at those figurines during this period, and he said coldly: "One less." ”
The fat man was startled by his words, and asked in a trembling voice, "What's missing?" ”
Ye Qiu pointed to the figurines in front of him and said, "There are eighteen on the left, and there are only seventeen on the right, one figurine is missing." ”
China is the most symmetrical, how can there be one less figurine in a tomb of such a size? The fat man haha: "Little brother, don't make a fuss, after so many years, it's normal to fall one or destroy it." ”
Ye Qiu shook his head and said, "It's not normal, haven't you noticed that these figurines are not the same as the old and new?" ”
The fat man took a closer look at it after shining a spotlight, and it seemed that it was really as Ye Qiu said, some parts of the figurines on the side of the coffin had cracked, on the contrary, the closer to his side, the more complete it was, and even the mud layer outside felt much fresher.
Cha Wenbin had already lit a candle before, this candle is also called an everlasting lamp, in this kind of place, ordinary light sometimes can't see the truth, and must use firelight.
He gave each of them another candle, and then said, "Delusion, the mud here is so thick, maybe it will be washed away by the water, don't scare yourself." Turn off all the headlights, place candles in front of you, watch your feet through the candlelight, and walk side by side, don't scatter. ”
This walk is really one foot deep and one foot shallow, and the mud is like a muddy field. It's only seven or eight meters away, Cha Wenbin felt something trip when he raised his foot, he pulled the thing up with a little force, and looked down to see that there was something on his instep that seemed to be a belt......
Say:
Good night
