Wuxia Coffin Mountain Chapter 12 The King of Headlessness

Shirley Yang said: "There is a mysterious carving of the head of the black sheep in front of the door, I think this place may be related to the black sheep, if you want to visit the earth fairy, first look for the black sheep, there is a cave inside, it seems that the space is not small, why not go in and have a look?" After speaking, he raised the "golden steel umbrella" to protect himself, put the "wolf's eye flashlight" on the umbrella, and first entered through the narrow passage where the ape's head was piled up, there was a hole between the two stone walls, and its internal chaos was rocky, and the stalactites were hanging down, and it was a natural cave of limestone accumulation.

I saw that the cave in the "Coffin Gorge" was ominous, and I was worried that she and my sister would miss in front of me, so I hurriedly made a gesture, and followed closely with the fat man and Sun Jiuye, the space inside the cave was unexpectedly large, and the limited beam of the wolf's eye flashlight could not immediately explore the surrounding terrain, and I could only see a flat open field in front of me, with a height of more than ten meters from the stalactites above my head.

The crowd did not dare to take it lightly, and groped forward in a group, and from time to time shone their flashlights around, but the light seemed to be swallowed up by darkness, and they could not see anything beyond a few steps, and the cave seemed to be empty. The fat man pulled out a cold firework, and slashed it in his hand, and the red light suddenly illuminated the vicinity.

I saw a big bluestone like a huge monument, it slept horizontally in front of us dozens of meters, there was a tall and strong jade man on the stone, the jade color was red like blood, wearing a python robe hooked belt, the head was as big as a bucket, and it was seated on the platform with white flowers in the center, but it was far away to see the face clearly, and I saw dozens of men and women kneeling around the stone people who were slaves, all of them were holding lamps, candles, and wine vessels.

We saw that we had found something, so we walked over to see the stone beam first, climbed the stone platform and took a closer look, it turned out that the jade man in the middle wore a copper mask like a copper kettle, but there was no outline of facial features, and there was not even a hole for breathing vision.

Professor Sun said curiously: "Could it be a head burial? As he spoke, he raised his flashlight, and when he got closer, he couldn't stop looking at the faceless copper hood.

The fat man reached out and touched the jade man, feeling that it was a pity that he couldn't move it back, and muttered that he could move a jade man's head back, so he raised his hand to pull the jade man's bronze mask, but he didn't pull it.

Professor Sun saw that his strength was not right, so he quickly stopped it, grabbed the fat man's arm with one hand, and pressed the other side of the bronze mask with the other hand to prevent the fat man from really tearing off the copper cover.

Unexpectedly, the two of them competed, and turned the bronze mask in place, and the back of the head turned to the front, Professor Sun screamed bitterly, and hurriedly went to see if the bronze mask was damaged.

I, Shirley Yang, and my sister, who were holding lamps and candles near Duanxiang in the back, suddenly noticed that Sun Jiuye's body shrank back, and he was almost paralyzed on the ground, so he reached out to support him, and asked, "What's the matter?" "Look up at the same time.

This look is also not a small surprise, why are you surprised? It turned out that the copper mask on the back of the jade man's head had facial features, eyebrows, eyes, mouth and nose, and his expression was also attentive, but it was not a human face, but a "black sheep" face. At this time, the bronze hood was turned around by the fat man and Professor Sun, and the jade man was originally fat and tall, so he was like a "black sheep" old demon wearing a python robe.

Everyone was surprised: "Is this jade man a headless king?" Why do you say that there is no head? Doesn't this mean that there is a pig's head? The cave is not like an ancient cemetery, why is the strange jade statue erected? ”

Although my sister is bold and clever, after all, she has no knowledge, and when she saw that the "black sheep" mask was so weird, she couldn't help but panic, and asked Professor Sun in surprise: "From ancient times to the present, no one in our Qingxi is willing to eat black mutton, why do you want to pretend to be such a terrifying braincase?" ”

Professor Sun was stunned when he heard this, and asked his sister: "Girl, isn't this nonsense?" At this time, was it customary not to eat black sheep in ancient times? Without waiting for his sister to answer, he said to himself: "What a king, there is no leader, if you want to see the earth immortals, first look for the black sheep, is that the headless king...... Is it the Black Sheep King? ”

The fat man just failed to succeed, and at that moment, he found that the mask was empty, there was no jade head, and he was unhappy in his heart, and at this moment he saw Professor Sun talking to himself, the content was inexplicable, so he said: "The fat man has lived for more than 30 years, and he has never heard of a black sheep king in any country, have you heard of Lao Hu?" ”

I shook my head, I had never heard of the "Black Sheep King", Shirley Yang also said: "I have seen a news, to see the Sino-Japanese joint archaeology, in the field to search for the remains of Cuban culture, the location is in Wushan, although no results have been investigated, but many times mentioned that the Ba people worshipped the tiger totem in ancient times, but did not say anything related to the black sheep." ”

I saw Sun Jiuye looking at the "black sheep" mask in a daze, thinking that maybe he had found some clues, and was meditating, but don't interfere with him, and saw that everyone was a little tired after walking in the dangerous path of the bird path in the mountains for a day, so I asked everyone to rest for a while, and then set the stop.

The jade statue wearing the bronze face of the "black sheep" is half sitting on a white platform, I have never taken the ancient "emperor and general" to heart, no matter what he "black sheep king" is a human or a demon, so I said to it: "You old man has been sitting for thousands of years, while the working people have been kneeling for thousands of years...... Don't you feel ashamed? "I sat next to the jade statue at the moment.

The fat man sat on the back of the half-kneeling stone man nearby, and talked nonsense with me, and the younger sister sat on the backpack and listened, but we are all discussing some more professional content, and the average layman can't understand, such as whether the jade man is worth the whole thing, or is it divided into pieces? Without the original jade braincase, is there a lack of artistic aesthetics and collection value?

Just as I was talking about it, I suddenly felt that something was not quite right under my buttocks, and I was about to get up to look, when I heard the fat man say next to me: "Commander Hu, seeing that your expression is not yin or yang, is it that the seat of the black sheep king is not comfortable enough?" Is it so easy for you to sit in the seat of a senior leader? It must be cold and hard, how do you say that? It's not cold in high places, be careful of running your stomach if you get cold......"

I patted the jade man next to me and said to the fat man, "What is the height that is not cold?" It's like a companion, but don't say it, it's really weird, it's not uncomfortable to sit on, but it's ...... It's so comfortable, a bit like a sofa, it's a little cold...... But it's not hard. ”

When the fat man and his sister heard it, they all felt strange, except for the stones in the cave, it was a stone, even if it was a jade platform, maybe it would be warm jade that would not make people feel cold, but how could there be any sofa?

I myself am even more strange, subconsciously touch it with my hands, the surface is a layer of dust, but the bottom is smooth and soft, like leather and leather, I don't know what it is. Looking down, there are pillow-shaped rectangular white bricks, and the edges are a long black spike. I wondered in my heart, and I opened a piece with my hand, and it was as dry as linen, like the hair of a dead man, and I wondered, "Where did all these so many hairs come out?" ”

At this moment, Shirley Yang suddenly dragged me back, I saw that her face was wrong, knowing that the situation had changed, and hurriedly got up with her drag, and at the same time had already held the "stainless steel Emei thorn" in her hand, and looked back at the beam of her flashlight, only to see the side of the white stone platform, I don't know when, quietly revealed a woman's face, that face was not carved from jade, but a zombie face with blood dripping from the mouth and eyes.

I didn't have a mental preparation, and suddenly felt a chill surging from my backbone, only to feel that the roots of my hair "rubbed" on the ground and exploded all at once, and quickly blocked Sun Jiuye and my sister behind me, and the fat man was also defenseless, and suddenly saw a faceless face dripping blood under the beam of the flashlight, and I couldn't help but be a little messy, and I didn't care about copying the "Lianzhu Quick Crossbow" behind me, so I hurriedly went to dig out the black donkey's hooves with one hand, and wheeled the sapper shovel with the other hand to smash.

Shirley Yang hurriedly said: "Don't panic, you won't move!" I made up my mind and looked closely at the human head on the side of the white stone platform, and sure enough, it was a real dead body, with its mouth and eyes wide open, and it looked strange and hideous in the darkness, but its face was not blood, but its mouth was filled with things. I carefully scraped off a little bit with the Emei thorn, it was all blood-red grains of sand, I don't know what kind of medicine was poured when I was alive, and the whole cavity was filled.

And it's not just this corpse, the whole white platform on the copper-faced jade man is actually the back of six ** corpses, those female corpses are kneeling on the ground in two rows, some bow their heads, some turn their faces sideways, and the terrifying expressions are different, but they all expose their backs above, the six female corpses are similar in size, one in height, like a leather-like soft platform, and the jade man with a black sheep bronze face is sitting on a soft seat made of dead corpses.

Professor Sun put on his glasses and stared at it for a long time, his face changed color for a while, and said to us: "There is no need to verify it, I also vouch for it with my reputation, this is a human ...... The human table, worthy of the name, is recorded in the history books, and I didn't expect that there would be a real thing here! The red sand infused into the female corpse may be a drug used to maintain the flesh and blood after death. ”

I thought of Shicai sitting on the back of the ancient corpse, and I felt extremely comfortable, and I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and she jumped wildly in her heart for a while: "What the hell is the human coffin doing?" He killed the living and used them as furniture...... Can the toiling masses not fucking rebel? ”

Professor Sun explained: "The name of the human table, is the later scholars themselves added, the real name is now unverified, this thing in the slave society three generations ago, there is indeed there, it is said that the last generation of Xia monarch Xia Wei, is a famous tyrant, he is poor and extravagant, and compared himself to the sky, claiming that he is the sun in the sky, the female slave to lie on the ground to him as a human table, as well as the male slave chariot, people and horses for him to ride, and so on are all invented by him himself, Later, this cruel system continued for many dynasties, and it is said that it continued until the Yuan Dynasty. Since ancient times, there was a custom that the things that the king enjoyed and used when he was alive must also be prepared after death...... The corpse should be a substitute for the human coffin in the underworld. ”

I was furious and asked Professor Sun, "So...... This corpse is a burial vessel for the Black Sheep King? But why can't you see the coffin and corpse of the Black Sheep King? ”

Professor Sun shook his head and said: "I have said it a long time ago, but none of you will listen, this is not an ancient tomb hall at all, but a sacrificial place similar to a feast hall, and his coffin and corpse have long been lost in the tomb of the black sheep king, because ...... Guanshan Taibao has already stolen the ancient mound of the black sheep king, and built the earth immortal village in that very large tomb, as a hiding place, if you want to visit the earth immortal, first find the black sheep, isn't it exactly the corresponding to this? ”

I feel that this matter is becoming more and more confusing, could it be that there was really a "black sheep king" in ancient times? The phrase "what a king, with a body and no head", is the black sheep king referred to? I didn't have any clue just now, and in this moment and a half, how did Sun Jiuye know?

Shirley Yang said to me, "You were sitting in ...... just now When sitting on the human table, Professor Sun found that the large stone beams underground, full of insects and fish monuments, and many ancient talismans that resemble the sun, moon and stars, the previous legend of the coffin gorge, although I don't know whether the legend is true or false, but it is certain that there is an ancient mausoleum of extraordinary scale hidden in the gorge. ”

Professor Sun nodded and said: "Yes, the jade statue of the Black Sheep King has not been destroyed, it may be the deliberate work of the Guanshan Taibao, there is a leaderless king, it is the true body of this jade statue, but it should not be called the Black Sheep King, its real title should be "Wuling Yishan King", but you don't think that the Wuling King is a human, according to this ancient legend, the Wuling King is actually ...... It's a stunningly large black sheep. ”

Professor Sun said that this cave was originally a place to sacrifice to the king of Wuling, and the tomb of the king of Wuling should be hidden in the deepest part of the "coffin gorge".

I couldn't understand it, I was about to ask again, but Sun Jiuye couldn't help but lie on the stele by himself, I had to hold back the full of questions, and took the fat man to check the terrain around, the cave between the mountains is extremely deep, and the evil wind in the distance is howling like a ghost crying God, it is expected that the cave is passing through the mountain, and there should be an exit to the canyon on the other side.

Finally, when Sun Jiuye extended all the words that recorded the deeds of the "Black Sheep King", it was already midnight, so we had to find a safe corner, light a fire, and stay in the cave that night.
