Chapter 106: Humanoid Terracotta Figurines

Others hurriedly came to the silk silk, there were not many words on it, and there were a few words, but it made people feel like they had experienced turbulent waves, cash cows, corpse cocoons, and gossip platforms turned out to be like this!

Tang Sancheng's face was heavy, this money tree was six meters high, the trunk was thick, it was impossible to move it away, it was impossible to rely on manpower, he thought of the grenade in Lei Zi's hand, but the space here is so small, if you use a grenade...... Tang Sancheng clenched his fists: "It's really breathless, I know that the coffin is under the cash cow, but I can't stand it, I can't touch it, what kind of fight is this." ()“

Liao Liao said a few words on the silk, but it told a story about betrayal, ascension, and conspiracy, this woman's head was in the corpse cocoon, but her eyes opened from time to time, but she didn't blink her eyes to death! Everyone doesn't want to pay attention to the details now, they only know that there is definitely a coffin in this tomb, but they just hide it from everyone! In this way, the six people were not in a hurry to leave.

The above instructions say that the coffin is under the cash tree, completely closed, and there is no organ at all, to find the coffin only hard to come, the ground is paved with stone slabs, and the forcible excavation efficiency is not high, even if Xiao Ning is there, it will not help, Lei Zi had an idea, and thought of a way, he disassembled the grenade, poured out the gunpowder inside, and buried half of it under the bronze tree, so that the detonation will not cause too much lethality, seeing his skillful technique, Bai Yi was surprised: "You are very proficient in gunpowder?" “

"It's okay, I've been interested in this since I was a child, I prepared gunpowder, no problem at all, just believe me, anyway, there is no other better way, I'm a rough person, and the method used is also simple and rude, okay, you flash away." ()" said Rezi, leaving him alone to stand beside the bronze tree, and took out the lighter in his hand, ready to detonate it......

Lei Zi "horn" lit the lighter, did not walk over, kept a distance of two meters, suddenly threw the lighter in his hand, quickly turned around and flew out, avoiding the force of the explosion, very clever approach, "bang" a loud noise, everyone lying on the ground, covering their heads with their hands and covering their ears.

Tang Sancheng felt that there were countless forces pulling him, there was a roaring sound next to his ears, a wave of heat swept overhead, I don't know how long it took, the burning sensation slowly disappeared, he raised his head, and saw the bronze tree crooked to the side, revealing a hole below, but it was just a very small space, and it was dark inside that it was not real. ()

Lei Zi carefully put away the remaining gunpowder in the grenade, then walked to the bronze tree, and pushed it with his hand, and the bronze tree shook a little: "Now we can push it away together, come on!" “

The bronze tree was slowly pushed, revealing the hole, and took a flashlight to illuminate it, and there was indeed a sarcophagus inside, Wu Tong was overjoyed: "I'll go down and have a look first." “

At this time, he had forgotten the unhappiness of being attacked by the female corpse just now, the entrance of the cave was only for one person to enter and exit, and someone always had to go down first, Bai Yi nodded, and a few watched Wu Tong's feet fall first, and then the whole person jumped down, seeing Wu Tong landing steadily, knowing that it was not high, after Wu Tong went down, he saw a brazier on the wall, lit the brazier, and the space below was very simple, except for the brazier on the stone wall, it was the sarcophagus in front of him, there was no coffin bed, the sarcophagus was placed directly on the ground, which looked a little desolate, Wu Tong confirmed that there was nothing else, and waved his hand at the top: "It's okay, let's all come down!" “

The others jumped down one after another, Xiao Ning didn't let her eyebrows, and jumped neatly below, when she saw the sarcophagus, she couldn't wait to open it, Bai Yi shook her head, and tested it with the Gu water given by Fu Yu as usual, and when she saw that there was nothing unusual, she hit it with a stone to confirm that there were no other mechanisms, and then lifted the coffin lid with the seven evils......

The lid of the coffin was lifted, and everyone looked inside, dumbfounded: empty! Except for some burial vessels, they are all empty, among those vessels, there is a pair of humanoid terracotta figurines, a wooden box, some ancient coins scattered around the inside of the sarcophagus, and the most special thing is that there is a mirror. ()

"Evil, what about the man's corpse?" Lei Zi gritted his teeth and said: "This tomb is a monster, when I came in, I thought that this man and a woman had become immortals, and what kind of gossip platform was made, but the woman was divided into corpses, and the men buried themselves here, and even the bones were gone." “

"It doesn't matter so much to him, it's good to have these." Wu Tong unconsciously raised the bar with Lei Zi, and he picked up the coins scattered in the sarcophagus one by one, this small copper coin is round on the outside and square on the inside, symbolizing the universe of heaven and earth. In the following with the seal word cast out of the word "five baht" two words, most of the ancient Chinese money outside the circle and inside the square, it is from the five baht money to start, Wu Tong while picking up, still counting in his heart, here a total of forty-nine five baht money.

Xiao Ning was attracted by the pair of humanoid terracotta figurines, the use of figurines is to enable the deceased to continue to live in the underworld as before, so there will be a large number of figurines when burying.

As early as the Neolithic Age, people began to put mud-kneaded human bodies and animals into the furnace and fire them together with pottery. During the Warring States Period, the martyrdom system declined, and the terracotta figurines replaced the martyrs to accompany the burial, and the terracotta warriors and horses unearthed from the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, the Shandong pottery music and dance acrobatic figurines, the Sichuan pottery rap figurines, and the Henan technical figurines were real and lifelike.

During the Sui and Tang dynasties, the art of terracotta figurines reached a new peak, and civil officials, samurai, ladies, camels, horses, teasing, riding figurines, and Hu figurines became common types in this era. The style of the five generations of terracotta figurines has changed greatly, and the gods and monsters of the town tomb have been valued.

This custom of accompanying the burial with terracotta figurines in the Song Dynasty slowly declined, because the burning of paper money was prevalent in funerals, the use of terracotta figurines plummeted, and it disappeared completely in the early Qing Dynasty, but this custom left a large number of terracotta figurines.

In front of him, Xiao Ning was holding a human-shaped pottery figurine, as the name suggests, it was a pottery fired in the shape of a person, Xiao Ning had one in one hand, tilted his head and looked: "Isn't this pottery figurine a man and a woman on the mural?" “

Others came over to see, although the shape of this pair of terracotta figurines is extremely simple, but the overall smoothness, and the portrayal of the face is also exquisite, especially the woman's terracotta figurines, Xiao Ning is very familiar with it, that is, the woman on the mural, the owner of the human head: "Strange, does it mean to replace the corpse with a terracotta figurine?" I've only heard of a clothed mound, but I haven't heard of a terracotta mound. “

"Regardless of how much it is, hurry up and take the Ming weapon to flash people." Wu Tong was really fed up here, and his hand picked up the mirror: "There is no gold and silver jewelry at all, this tomb owner can build such a neat tomb, but the burial is too shabby, look at this mirror, it is only bronze." “

Wu Tong held the mirror and shook it indiscriminately, looking disdainful, the mirror was facing the brazier on the wall, and suddenly refracted a light, this light came too quickly and too quickly, so frightened that Wu Tong took several steps back: "My good man, what is this!" “

Bai Yi has opened an antique shop for so many years, not for nothing, he took the mirror, aimed at the light, and from this inconspicuous bronze mirror, a light shone on the wall that was not so bright, and two lines of words immediately appeared on the wall...... See the light of the day, the world is bright!

These two lines of words are the inscription on the back of this bronze mirror, Tang Sancheng sighed: "It's incredible! “

"This is a translucent lens, which has been made since the middle and late Western Han Dynasty, in fact, there is nothing remarkable to put it bluntly, which is caused by the existence of many small convex and uneven curvature differences on the mirror surface. The mirror surface of the graphic is slightly concave, and the mirror surface of the non-graphic area is slightly convex. The concave light converges, and the convex light diverges, and the bright and dark parts corresponding to the mirror back graphics appear in the reflection, so as to form the mirror back pictures and texts on the wall, the Western Han Dynasty came up with this kind of process, and the ancients are really amazing. “

Bai Yi suddenly felt that now was not the time to say this, he put away the translucent mirror, looked at the inner wall of the sarcophagus, and the flashlight shone into it, wanting to see it clearly, only to see three words engraved on the stone wall...... I'll go too!
