Because these three heads have been soaked in the soup, the cave has been damp for a long time, and it has almost rotted into a few lumps of carrion, rotten and sticky to the bottom of the jar.

Three large skulls are haphazardly displayed.

Chen Erwa took a look, and a sour smell came to his face, and he almost vomited on the spot.

Quickly covered his mouth and ran to the side and threw up.

Lin Yi has seen a lot of this kind of scene, and he first looked at the condition of this clay pot.

Simple and unpretentious, it belongs to the large-scale firing of civilian vessels, the age should be in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and the latest can not reach the Kangyong and Yong dynasties.

This timeline coincides with the existence of the "Onishi Dynasty".

But this habit of treating human heads as sacrificial objects and cooking them was originally the treatment of Yin Shang when they treated the Qiang people.

Among the cultural relics unearthed in Yinxu are the food utensils used to cook human heads.

Moreover, at that time, the use of human sacrifice was already a very normal and traditional way of sacrifice, which was not only used by rulers, but even imitated by the people.

As the descendants of Dongqiang, it is normal for the Dongyi people to have this kind of sacrificial behavior.

Moreover, according to historical records, in the history of China, the record of "thousands of miles of red land, starvation all over the wilderness, and cannibalism" is the Ming Dynasty, which appeared twenty-five times.

The number of peasant uprisings in the Ming Dynasty was second only to that of the Song and Tang dynasties.

Even if the boiled human head in this jar is not for sacrificial purposes, it can be justified as food.

At least from this, it can be inferred that no one has set foot in this cave for more than 200 years.

The good news is that no one should have touched anything here, and it may be lying in one place untouched.

The bad news is that this is the altar of the Eastern Yi people, and the witchcraft of the Eastern Yi people is very famous, maybe there is some curse here.

Moreover, no one has set foot in it for so long, which may mean that there is no exit to this cave at all.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi sighed lightly and closed the lid of the clay pot.

I turned on my flashlight and looked around the shoal.

Chen Erwa's side was almost adjusted, and she hurriedly leaned over to Lin Yi's side, raised the strong flashlight with him, and looked at the surrounding environment.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, this look scared him so much that he almost sat on the ground.

Just around this shoal, there is a circle of wooden stakes the thickness of a wrist.

On each stake, there was a naked corpse.

The bodies had their hands tied behind their backs, and their feet were held securely with hemp rope, and a wooden stake ran from between the strands to the throat.

Finally sticking out of the mouth.

Each one maintains the same posture.

The belly of the corpse was dissected, and all the internal organs and key parts were missing.

The heads of three corpses are missing.

Presumably, what was steamed in this clay pot was their heads.

"Oh my god, what a hell of a life, this place is so wicked. Brother Lin, let's not stay here, let's go! ”

Chen Erwa kept urging him to leave this place quickly behind Lin Yi.

Lin Yi took out a piece of rag cut from the diving suit, used it as a face towel to cover his mouth and nose, reached into the bag with one hand, held a black donkey's hooves, and held the obstacle knife with the other, and walked to these dried corpses.

Turn on the flashlight and get ready to work on these corpses to find some useful information.

When he looked closer, he realized that the dried corpses were not directly nailed to death by wooden stakes.

Judging by the marks on the stakes and the condition of the dried corpses, they survived for some time after being nailed to the stake.

Some of the dried corpses can still be seen after the muscle fibers on the body have been cut, and there are still body tissues trying to heal the wound.

This kind of cruel punishment, which can be called "chopping alive", seems to have gone out of the scope of sacrifice.

It's just that the identity of these dried corpses is not determined at all now.

Was it the subordinates of the "King of the Great West" who forcibly occupied the sacrificial holy place of the Eastern Yi people and made these Eastern Yi people into human beings?

Or did these people mistakenly think that this was a borderless land, and they couldn't read the Eastern Yi language, so they broke in? In the end, it became the ration of the Eastern Yi people?

So, what is the explanation for this elaborate underwater passage?

Or is it that there has long been some tacit understanding or agreement between the two of them, these people who have been made to do it do not belong to either of them, but Zhang Xianzhong used the sacrificial holy place of the Eastern Yi people, so he gave these people to the leaders of the Eastern Yi tribe as tribute?

Thinking of this, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a chill behind him.

Chen Erwa over there stood far away, and she didn't dare to come over to face these dried corpses.

kept waving at Lin Yi, signaling him to hurry up and stop dealing with these dried corpses.

Lin Yi observed for a long time, but he really didn't find any valuable information.

All of the previous was based on his guesses.

Now that they are out of touch with the outside world, time is very important to them and they need to find what they are looking for as soon as possible.

It's really not good, and you have to find an exit before you make plans.

Lin Yi stood up and was about to go to meet Chen Erwa, but found that Chen Erwa, who was still standing in place just now, was gone.

Disappearing with him, there was also the bright light of the bright flashlight he held in his hand.

Almost as soon as he lowered his head and looked up again, a living person disappeared.

"Second baby! Two babies! ”

Lin Yi shouted twice, but Chen Erwa did not respond.

Only his own voice drifted back and forth in the empty shallows.

At the same time, Lin Yi's ears suddenly heard the sound of the shock and friction of the iron cable.

"咣啷~咣啷~~"

At the same time, it was accompanied by the sound of rushing water, which echoed in this empty space.

The light in Lin Yi's hand slammed into the water, and the sound immediately stopped.

Immediately after, there was a sound behind him.

"Crunch~Crunch~~"

Another sound of the wedge of wood swaying reached his ears.

Lin Yi turned the light behind him abruptly, shining on the dry corpses that were nailed to the wooden stakes, and the sound immediately stopped.

The sound of chains in the water came to his ears again.

This time, by the time his light came back to shine back, the human bones in the chains had crawled to the shore with teeth and claws.

is crawling towards the position where Lin Yi is.

The dried corpses that were nailed to the wooden stakes behind them also suddenly became energetic, and they climbed to the top one by one along the wooden stakes, landed on all fours, and surrounded Lin Yi in various strange postures.

These things can't help him at all.

The Wuzhu inheritance of the Eastern Yi nationality is in the same breath as the Wuzhu culture of the Central Plains.

Moreover, in the "October Tianxing Calendar" they use, male and female refer to yin and yang, and there are many theories of yin and yang of the five elements.

So seeing the scene in front of him, Lin Yi didn't panic at all.

This kind of sorcery, called "psychics", is not a clever form of sorcery, and is triggered whenever a living creature touches a medium set by the caster.

To crack this witchcraft is not a difficult task for Lin Yi.

But the difficulty in front of him now is, where did Chen Erwa go?

Is there more than one kind of witchcraft being practised here?
