Chapter 298: Corpse Turtle
Bai Yi's discovery made everyone excited and inexplicable, but the two tomb roads, one left and one right, where to go, were a little confused for a while, and the dark clouds released Hai Dongqing to let it explore, the one facing the left actually had no mechanism, it was relatively safe, and as soon as Hai Dongqing came back, everyone decided to go to the left.
Finally, there was no need to bend over and hunch over, everyone suddenly felt a lot more energetic, especially Xiaoshan, who grew up in the world, he didn't like this kind of long thief hole very much, now he straightened up, a lot neater, and was about to rush forward, but was dragged by Tang Sancheng: "What kind of place is this, don't run around!" “
Xiaoshan pursed his mouth, but still listened to Luo Tian's words, and honestly followed the Seven Evils, Bai Yi stayed next to Tang Sancheng, Lei Zi felt that his grandmother was not in pain, and his uncle was not in love, Tang Sancheng and Xiaoshan were guarded, and he was alone, he looked ahead, and suddenly frowned, the smell from the front made him almost vomit, how many corpses must be superimposed on top of each other to exude such a disgusting smell!
"There's no mechanism here, and I guess it's not an important burial chamber." Boss Guan said: "It seems that we are still in the wrong place. “
Approaching, the smell was not only able to smell Leizi, everyone could smell it, a strong smell came to the face, and couldn't wait to get into everyone's nose, Xiaoshan squatted: "It stinks!" “
This is not only stinky, but a rotten smell, Lei Zi touched the black donkey's hooves in the bag: "Damn, there won't be zongzi, right?" This smell is so unusual. (Superb perspective)"
After walking forward for about five or six distances, I saw a very narrow rectangular vertical pit soil pit, arranged very densely, and each row was half a meter to a meter apart, roughly counting, there were more than a hundred, Xiaoshan grabbed Tang Sancheng's arm: "What are these?" “
Tang Sancheng didn't know, Bai Yi said in a deep voice: "Tombs, how many soil pits there are, how many tombs there are." “
That is to say, there are more than 100 tombs here, and when you look closer, they are all thin coffins, without burial goods, and there are one or two blue bricks on the coffins, and the names of the deceased, the names of the sentences, the names of the county prisons, and the date of death are engraved on the bricks.
These pits are densely packed here, and people can't help but feel creepy, like beehives, bees huddle together, and make a buzzing sound, but these corpses, they sleep next to each other in this deep underground, but the stench is strong.
Bai Yi had an idea, glanced at Lei Zi, the two of them didn't say a word, opened one of the thin coffins, Lei Zi frowned at first, and then twisted his head to the side: "Damn, this smell is too big." ()“
The corpse inside did not even have a trace of flesh and skin, only the skeleton remained, and the skeleton had wounds caused by the stabbing and slashing of the instrument, mainly concentrated in the vertebrae, and the owner of this corpse must have suffered from the cool type and carried out high-intensity labor during his lifetime.
Bai Yi and Lei Zi turned over several coffin lids one after another, the bones inside are similar, the biggest common thing is the damage to the vertebrae, as for the damage to other parts, it is slightly different, there are no starry burial objects in the coffin, this result makes everyone a little disappointed, especially the monkey, he is full of thousands of treasures in the Qin Tomb, and now it is all empty coffins, and he couldn't help but complain: "What, isn't there some gold, silver and jade underground." “
The second boss glared, and he immediately said, "I'm just worried about Boss Guan." “
This guy looks like a wall grass, wherever the wind blows, he will pour it down, although he is nominally the second boss's person, but he is always patting Guan Kai's sycophants.
Boss Guan didn't accept this feeling: "What am I anxious about?" “
The horse's ass was slapped on the horse's hooves, and the monkey did not dare to talk nonsense anymore.
At this time, Lei Zi glanced at Bai Yi: "It seems that there is no suspense anymore." “
"Yes, this is the tomb of the prisoners, and these people are all prisoners."
Prisoners, convicts sentenced to deprivation of liberty for a certain period of time during the Qin and Han dynasties. Because prisoners who had been imprisoned for a long time also had to serve, they were called prisoners or criminals at that time, and the sentence was a lighter punishment than the death penalty in the Qin and Han dynasties. According to the severity of the offender's crime, Qin Law divided the prisoners into 黓, 劓, Chengdan, Wanchengdan, Guixin, Baican, Lichen, Sikou and so on.
During the Qin and Han dynasties, the prisoners who were sentenced to prison were escorted to the construction site to serve, and when Qin Shi Huang was the first emperor, he sent 3,000 prisoners to cut down the trees in Xiangshan; more than 700,000 prisoners were sentenced to build the Afang Palace in Xianyang and the mausoleum in Lishan, and some of the prisoners who came into contact with the core of the Qin Tomb must have no way out, and there were only more than 100 corpses of prisoners here, which was already considered a few, but it was difficult to guarantee that there would be no other place.
"These people were tortured before their lives, and they were escorted here to build the Qin Tomb, the worst thing is these people who died here, originally according to the laws of the Qin Dynasty, they had the opportunity to be exempted, but unfortunately, they may have touched the core of the Qin Tomb and had to die, after all, only the dead can't speak, this is the best way to keep it secret." Bai Yi put the lid of the open coffin back on: "It seems that Guan Ye's hard work is not in vain, the appearance of the prisoner's tomb can prove some things, and then it is up to us to rely on ourselves, find the legendary underground passage, we can find the real location of the underground palace, I am afraid that the location we are now is only attached to the mausoleum, and the mausoleum of the Qin Emperor cannot be next to the prisoner's tomb." “
Bai Yi said reasonably, and Boss Guan nodded: "That's right, it seems that we have to go back again, and we will choose to go to the tomb on the right again, it will be like a maze here, it seems that we have to make a sign in case we get lost." “
This Bai Yi has been prepared, he took out the highlighter, this is specially prepared for this trip to Qinling, and it is also a fresh product from abroad, and he paints a mark in this black Qinling, even if there is no light, he can see it clearly, the principle of this highlighter is similar to that of Xingguang Stone, it can shine on its own in the dark night, and it is very suitable to use it as a sign, Bai Yi painted a turtle on the wall.
Lei Zi was puzzled: "What is not easy to draw, how to draw a turtle that can glow?" “
"You don't know this, the turtle has a long life, which is a good sign." The dwarf said: "It symbolizes that we can also live for a long time, we can get in and out." “
"You're pretty good at living for nothing." Lei Zi said: "It makes sense. “
The mark was made in the most conspicuous position, and the group walked towards the right tomb road, the structure of this tomb is unknown, and now it is equivalent to the underground rats scurrying around, touching where is where.
Before a few people returned to the entrance of the thief cave, Tang Sancheng heard a "rustling" sound, which he had heard before, fifty years ago, in the Western Han Dynasty tomb with Gu poison...... Quicksand!
"There's sand......," Tang Sancheng said.
"Listen well, in which direction, in what position?" Bai Yi said sharply.
Tang Sancheng listened intently, yes, his head raised and looked at the top: "It's on this top, rustling, the flow speed is getting faster and faster!" No, run! “
Tang Sancheng took the lead in running, there was still a distance of more than ten meters from the thief hole, Tang Sancheng had never run like today, his feet kept flying, because the sound of the sand had reached the level of "boom" from "rustling", it can be expected that those sand would have the momentum of "the water of the Yellow River coming from the sky", with these momentum, everyone will be blocked here, no, I'm afraid it will be buried alive.
Seeing Tang Sancheng running first, everyone followed behind him, this is an instinct to survive, Lei Zi ran and didn't forget to spit on the wall, this Tang Sancheng is always in such a hurry, it's okay to be in a hurry, now he is in a hurry, he didn't run a few steps, Lei Zi's ordinary ears heard the sound like thunder: "Damn, I don't usually think you guys can run, how can you be the same as rabbits at this time!" “
