Chapter 158: Human Skin Dolls
"Are there a lot of corpses like this?" Long Yi asked in a voice.
Qi Xiaoting: "There are a lot, there are all over the tomb. Corpses stacked on top of each other, as if they had been thrown on top of them at random. ”
Ryuichi: "Are there any funeral items?" ”
Qi Xiaoting: "No. Some of the broken pottery seems to have been stolen more than once! ”
Ryuichi: "Look for it, see if there is any written record!" ”
Qi Xiaoting: "No. There are many ghosts floating on the top of the tomb, old ghosts and new ghosts, male ghosts and female ghosts. Do you want to hold one and ask? ”
Ryuichi: "Don't. This may be the mausoleum of an emperor or a prince. Let's take a look at the basics first. If necessary, come back for interrogation. You don't know them, and you don't necessarily want to open them. If you see it clearly, come out quickly, it smells weird! ”
Qi Xiaoting looked around the tomb, saw something worthless, hurriedly opened the door of the tomb and came out, closed the stone door again with her backhand, and turned northwest to continue to check.
This place is completely different from the east, the caves are one by one, and the shark oil wall lamps are also dense, illuminating the tunnel.
Qi Xiaoting didn't know how to check, and suddenly music sounded. First, the "Ding Ding Dong" seems to be practicing, and then it sounds rhythmically. The sound goes from small to loud, and at its climax it is deafening.
It was like a large group of men and horses galloping, the chaos mixed with fierce neighing, the clanging of metal, the neighing of horses, and the miserable screams of the crowd!
Qi Xiaoting seemed to be surrounded by thousands of troops and horses, filled with gunsmoke, trampled by horses' hooves, dense arrows and waving weapons, and attacked her.
This voice Qi Xiaoting had heard, the kind she heard in the branch compound. Zhi Fulu explained that this is an ancient battlefield, and there was once a fierce battle, and the sound of the battle was recorded by some kind of magnetic thing in nature, and it would be played repeatedly in a certain special weather and at a certain time.
However, at this moment, the sound turned out to be coming from the basement.
Due to the sound in the tunnel, there was a "humming" sound everywhere, and Qi Xiaoting felt that the sound surrounded her.
Qi Xiaoting is determined to explore, looking for cave by cave, wanting to see where and how the sound comes from.
The cave was also originally a burial chamber, with a stone door, and there were coffins and bones inside, and there were also no burial goods. It's just that the scale is much smaller than that in the big stone gate. Traces of theft are evident all over the burial chamber.
Not long after the sound of thousands of horses galloping, Qi Xiaoting had not yet found the origin of the sound, and the beautiful sound she heard that night sounded again.
The sound is also from small to large, from weak to strong, beautiful and beautiful, as if the beautiful wind, birdsong, and spring in nature are gushing...... All kinds of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, are all condensed in it, giving people a deep but floating feeling.
Qi Xiaoting listened with a wide heart.
Zhi Fulu explained that after the battle, the victor built Ducheng here, and the palace sang and danced every day. There are magnetic stone walls, which also suck in this court music. Due to certain factors, the two speakers will alternate.
"It felt like the voice was right next to me, and it was certainly not what he explained. I just can't find it. ”
Ryuichi: "Don't worry, is there a cave that you haven't found, or a stone gate that you haven't found?" ”
Qi Xiaoting: "There's no more here, I have to move forward." ”
Qi Xiaoting walked forward two meters away, and a stone gate appeared in front of her.
When Qi Xiaoting opened the stone door, she was stunned again: the sound really came from here. And the maker of the sound turned out to be a real person!
It is also a basement, with about twenty square meters, in which more than twenty female musicians dressed as brightly dressed palace maids sit. Some sat high, some sat low, and they were all concentrating on playing the instrument in front of them or in their hands.
Although Qi Xiaoting was puzzled, out of politeness, there was a lantern with a beautiful style like a palace lantern, with flames and incense, and five-colored light sprinkled indiscriminately. He knocked on the stone door and said, "Hey, hello! ”
Qi Xiaoting greeted them and walked among them.
What embarrassed Qi Xiaoting was that no one reacted to her greeting. No one looked up at her.
Qi Xiaoting felt more contempt. I regretted that I shouldn't have rushed in, and suddenly I realized that something was wrong: these female musicians always maintained a posture, and although their arms and fingers were moving, their movements were very mechanical.
If you look closely at the face of the female musician, her eyes are smiling, her cherry mouth is slightly open, and a pair of dimples are looming, all of which are stationary!
It turned out to be a doll - a doll made of human skin.
The puppet is so vivid and realistic, and this craftsmanship is also amazing!
Qi Xiaoting admired the puppet artist in her heart.
"Don't be amazed yet, and if you know, look at something else. This cemetery is not simple. ”
Long Yi urged.
Qi Xiaoting was about to leave, when she suddenly saw a small crack in the wall on the side of the doll room, which looked like the outline of a door.
Suddenly I remembered my own house, and when I looked at the outer room, there was no difference between the door and the wall, and if I looked closely, I would find that there were small cracks separating the wall.
Is there a suite here?
Qi Xiaoting thought to herself, and stretched out her hand to press and turn in the outline of the door. She had seen that when Zhi Fulu opened the door of the suite, it was opened by pressing and turning.
"Boom!"
Qi Xiaoting just pressed and turned a few times, and sure enough, another stone door opened on the wall. And like his own house, the stone door was embedded in the stone wall, and when it was opened, there was no shadow of the door inside or outside.
The suite inside is slightly larger than the outside, about twenty-four or five square meters! Like his bedroom, the floors, walls and bowed roof are made of thickly painted wooden planks.
The difference is that the roof is on the east, south, west and north
The furnishings are elegant, with a single bed in carved rosewood on the south side, which is one meter wide and two meters long. On the north side of the bed was a small dressing table against the wall, on which lay an open, yellowed thread-bound book, and in the middle of the book lay a small knife as thin as a cicada's wing, shining silver. In front of the dresser there is a carved wooden chair also made of rosewood.
On the north side of the dressing table sat a small square stool, on which sat a young woman with clear eyebrows and a radiant countenance, dressed in beautiful clothes and jewelry, and green silk like clouds. In front of her was a small yaoqin, and the woman was bowing her head to make a gesture of stroking the qin, making a "ding dong" sound from time to time.
In stark contrast to this woman were a dozen women at the base of the north wall, all of whom were also young and gorgeously dressed. Some of them stood, some sitting, some fell to the ground, some leaned against the wall, there was no sound, there was a dead silence.
It seems that these are also dolls.
But why are the postures so uneven?
Qi Xiaoting wanted to help the fallen to the ground up, and at the same time weigh their weight. As soon as he raised his hand, he accidentally touched the one on the side, and the head of the puppet fell "bonely".
A nest of green silk scattered all over the ground, inextricably linked, like countless tentacles struggling out of the wooden floor, holding up a pretty face of infinite joy.
It's just that there is a green spot the size of a copper coin on his left cheek, and there is also a set of white and fluffy fine hairs, and a nightmare is born on this beautiful and delicious smile.
Look at the broken neck, and inside is a snow-white mass.
It turned out to be a defective product!
Looking at the others, there are indeed deficiencies: most of them have different degrees of body skin rot, some limbs are incomplete, and some have broken hands and feet.
There are also a few that are not mutilated, but have unnatural facial expressions. Some are like crying, some are like anger, and some are sad......
But whether it is a failure or a success, all of them are made of real human skin.
In the northeast corner of the room, there was a small square table of rosewood, on which was placed a very smooth porcelain container with a lid, with a wide mouth, Qi Xiaoting suspected that it was a burial object in the tomb, and was curious for a while, so she walked over and opened it to see.
It doesn't matter if you look at it, it makes Qi Xiaoting blush-in - in the clear liquid medicine inside, there is actually a man's raw () breeding () device!
Qi Xiaoting was ashamed for a while, hurriedly walked out of the door, and looked down the tunnel.
He hadn't gone far when a small door appeared in front of him. The small door was only sixty or seventy centimeters wide, and Qi Xiaoting pushed it open with a gentle push, but it made her jump.
On the single bed inside, a white-haired man was lying. It may have been the sound of the door opening that alarmed him, and he sat up with a "poof".
"You...... Is it a human or a ghost? ”
The two men asked almost at the same time.
"I'm human. What about you? Qi Xiaoting said first.
Hearing the other party speak, Qi Xiaoting felt an inexplicable joy: there is finally someone who can speak, and it is much better to be able to say a thing or two than to guess by herself.
"I'm human too, how did you get here?" The other party asked, "Could it be that the master also recruited it?" ”
Qi Xiaoting nodded: "Yes, Zhi Fulu let me live here." ”
"You shouldn't run around, you'll die faster!" When the other party said this, he suddenly covered his mouth in horror: "You go out, I didn't say anything." I beg you to go out, and I beg you to tell him nothing. ”
immediately got out of bed, pushed Qi Xiaoting out of the door, and then closed it. No matter how she pushed, how she screamed, how she pleaded, she swore that no one would tell her what the conversation between the two people was, and the door never opened. The white-haired man inside didn't say a word.
Qi Xiaoting had no choice but to leave and continue to check.
After the tunnel turns south, on the right side of the tunnel, there is another stone gate.
Accepting the lesson of the last time, Qi Xiaoting knocked it with her hand and asked, "Is there anyone inside?" ”
"Who?" A frail female voice asked.
Sure enough, there are people, and it's still a woman. Qi Xiaoting was overjoyed, and immediately said, "I just came here and want to find someone to talk to." Is it convenient for you? ”
"I can't open the door, you can come in by yourself!" The voice was still weak, as if it hadn't eaten in days.
Qi Xiaoting was allowed to open the same as other stone doors, turned the protrusion of the fastening buckle hanging, and the stone door opened with a "bang".
