Chapter 52 The Porcelain Jar
"Old Chen, have you discovered anything?"
I walked up to Chen Tuozi and asked.
"These carvings are indeed the craftsmanship of the Qin Dynasty, but the dragon and phoenix patterns on the walls are a bit strange! The meaning of 'dragon and phoenix present auspiciousness' should have been spread from the Spring and Autumn Period. After Qin Shi Huang became emperor, he almost completely banned the Spring and Autumn Culture.
Moreover, the characters, customs, etc. have been unified, so how can the 'dragon and phoenix present auspiciousness' appear here? If found, one will be beheaded."
Chen Tuozi expressed his confusion.
We have discovered this problem before. Some of the burial objects and carvings in this tomb are not from the Qin Dynasty, and there are even traces of Japanese culture. These things are difficult to explain.
Boom!
Suddenly, there was a very slight sound in the tomb.
In an instant, we all seemed to be electrocuted.
Because the sound is exactly the same as the one we heard outside the door just now!
"This damn thing came from a wine vat."
The fat man staggered back to the door, almost falling.
Chen Tuozi and I also hurriedly retreated. No matter what was in the wine vat, it was still making noise. It was definitely not a good thing.
Wang Yuanchao walked over with a steel rod in his hand, and gently tapped on the porcelain jar.
We stared intently at the porcelain jar, but apart from the "dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang," sound it made, there was no other sound.
Wang Yuanchao knocked on the jar a few more times, but there was still no noise.
If everyone hadn't heard it clearly before, everyone would have thought it was an auditory hallucination.
We looked at each other, but we didn't know what to do at this moment. There must be something in the porcelain jars to make the noise, but the question now is whether we should open these porcelain jars?
With the Yin-Yang boy and the white-haired zombie from before, no one dares to draw any conclusions now.
In our current state, if there is another terrifying monster in this porcelain vat, can we handle it?
"You guys step away first."
The fourth girl said suddenly.
"Damn it, why don't you think about it again? I always feel something is wrong with this porcelain jar. The eyes painted on it seem to be a kind of seal. Before the Spring and Autumn Period, some tribes regarded eyes as totems. Before, Fatty was in Pan
My homeland once received a very evil jade pendant with eyes carved all over it. At the time, I thought the jade was too weird and I didn’t dare to ask for it. Later I found out that it was a piece of rotten jade, and the whole family of the person who bought it died.
There must be something sealed inside..."
The fat man suddenly screamed, as if he had just remembered this.
"You guys go out first, I'm fine, let's go!"
The fourth girl shook her head.
I was a little annoyed by the fourth girl's behavior. He seemed to have no idea how to write the word "fear". I felt that he seemed to have a kind of fanaticism about this tomb, and he would not let go of any clue even if it cost him his life.
He turned his head and saw that we had exited the stone gate. He pulled out the iron ruler from his waist and slashed it down.
Just hearing a "ping" sound, the porcelain jar was immediately split into two.
An extremely pungent smell suddenly spread out. It's really hard to describe what kind of smell it was. Anyway, I retched immediately, and the fat man even spit out all the food he had eaten before.
"Is this foot-washing water that has been stored for thousands of years? It's still athlete's foot."
The fat man vomited until he was dizzy.
But fortunately, apart from the pungent smell, there is no danger at this moment.
There was a large pool of dark green liquid on the ground, and there was also a large group of black stuff. I didn't know what it was.
Wang Yuanchao took a steel rod and stabbed it. The steel rod was immersed in the black clay-like thing, but there was no reaction.
"What is this thing? It's dark."
The fat man asked with a puzzled look on his face.
I find it a bit hard to understand that such a mysterious porcelain jar contains such a thing. It doesn't make sense logically. And just now we clearly heard a sound coming from the porcelain jar. There must be something else inside.
Qiankun is right.
I didn't believe in evil, so I took the steel rod from Wang Yuanchao's hand and poked the black thing a few times. It looked like a piece of clay.
We looked at each other and studied for a long time, but we still didn't know what the thing in the porcelain jar was used for.
"Why don't we just stop doing it and smash all the other porcelain jars open, and we must find the source of the sound! There must be something wrong with one of the dozen or so porcelain jars, and it will fly away." I gritted my teeth and said.
Seeing that it was not dangerous to open it for the first time, I became bolder.
We carefully opened all the porcelain jars, but what surprised us was that the dozen or so porcelain jars were all filled with these black things.
These things are very strange. The whole mass is pitch black, just like a big lump of clay like cow dung. We, the monk Zhang Er, are completely confused as we look around.
These stone chambers are placed behind the bronze door and the Hades Rats. It is obvious that they hide extremely important things, but now they have found nothing here.
It's like after going through a lot of hard work to successfully interview, only to find out that the other company only wants cleaners.
"What happened to that sound just now? Could it be that it was made by a ghost?" The fat man looked confused.
The ground was all made of polished stone slabs, and everything was empty. It was impossible for anything else to touch these porcelain jars under our noses.
Or is it that the sound just now was made by these clays?
The fourth girl grabbed a handful of clay with her hands, not worrying about whether it was poisonous, and then stood thoughtfully, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Go and look at other caves! Maybe you can find some clues."
I frowned and said, we have looked through this very carefully and we should not miss any clues.
We even broke open every porcelain jar, but still found nothing.
The fourth girl nodded, we came to the next cave, and then pried open the huge stone sealing the door.
What makes me feel extremely weird is that the two caves dug out are almost identical.
The patterns on the ground, including the auspicious dragons and phoenixes on the left and right, and the porcelain vat placed in the middle, are exactly the same!
"Isn't there still that dark soil in here?"
The fat man gently tapped the porcelain jars with a stick and asked with some confusion.
"Don't be careless, be careful."
I had an ominous premonition in my heart. Anyway, I felt that there was definitely something hidden in these porcelain jars, but we just didn't see the way through.
"Everyone retreat, it's the same old way."
Wang Yuanchao nodded, and he signaled us to retreat outside the stone gate first, and then he covered his nose and opened the lids of the porcelain jars.
Sure enough, the smell coming out of the porcelain jar this time was exactly the same as that smelly foot smell.
I walked over with a flashlight and shined it on the green water in the porcelain tank. At this moment, the green water blocked the flashlight's light, and a small ripple appeared on the water surface.
"It's exactly the same. Damn it. Did Li Si make a joke on purpose?"
The fat man also leaned down, and when he saw the tank of green water, he was immediately disappointed.
"Should we empty out the contents of these tanks?"
Chen Tuozi's tone was a little hesitant. After all, the smell of the green water was too strange. If he did it again, he didn't know if his stomach would be able to bear it.
"wrong!"
I suddenly thought of what I had seen in the tank before, and the sweat on my back suddenly broke out.
"There are living things in this tank, otherwise why would the water surface fluctuate? There is something in it!"
Chapter completed!
