Chapter 42 Chapter 6 Mercury Corpse Boy

"Then what should we do now?" Bai Erlaizi panicked when he heard that he had entered the ancient tomb.According to the folks in the country, breaking into the mausoleum and disturbing the peace of the dead will result in retribution. Tian Guoqiang smiled and said: "Okay, if you stand here and don't move, you won't disturb the peace of the owner of the tomb. Let's go first!" "No! No! No!" Bai Erlaizi grabbed Tian Guoqiang's clothes in fright. Young Master Liu sighed and said, "It's impossible to go back now, so we can only take one step forward."

Zhang Enpu nodded and said: "Maybe there will be a way out in the ancient tomb." how do I say this? Zhang Enpu said: "In order to keep the secrets of the ancient tombs, the ancient feudal ruling class would bury all the craftsmen who built the tombs alive in the tombs when the tombs were completed. Some clever craftsmen would secretly dig up the tombs when they were building the tombs." Find a secret path, and when they are buried alive, they will escape quietly through that secret path." First Young Master Liu said, "Then can you be sure that this ancient tomb has a secret passage?"

Zhang Enpu said: "Even rare things like human skin lanterns appeared. I think the owner of the tomb should not be an ordinary person. Because he is not an ordinary person, it is more likely that such a tomb has a secret way of escape!" Zhang Enpu's words strengthened everyone's determination to move forward. Liu Dashao waved the shotgun in his hand and said passionately: "The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard, go!" Tian Guoqiang rolled up his sleeves, wanting to check the time on the German watch, but who knew that the German watch was malfunctioning here, no matter how much he slapped it, there was no response, and the time stayed at the time when they entered the water.

First Young Master Liu raised the flashlight to shine under the platform. This kind of flashlight is not an ordinary flashlight. It is a spotlight flashlight. The light emitted will not be scattered, but integrated into one beam. Even further, it is said that Chief Tian spent a lot of effort to find it from the People's Liberation Army. Below the platform, there are stone steps sloping downwards, like a crawling snake, with no end in sight.The strange thing is that there are no stone walls on both sides of the stone steps, but a chaotic darkness. If you touch it with your hands, you can't touch the edge.This feeling is like a hanging ladder in the air. Walking on it is frightening, for fear of accidentally falling off the edge of the chaos.

The four of them walked carefully on the stone steps, the cold wind roared at the edge of the chaos, like countless ghosts screaming heart-piercingly. Countless white silks floated out of the chaotic darkness, circling and dancing around them. Bai Erlaizi was so frightened that his legs became weak, and he covered his ears and shouted, "Oh my god, there are ghosts, there are ghosts!" These white threads are illusory, and they can't be grasped or driven away. With his voice, there are more and more threads surrounding him. Bai Erman fell to the ground with a pale face, his eyes were dull, and his whole body Shaking like a sieve, he kept shouting: "Don't come here, don't come here!"

First Young Master Liu said to Tian Guoqiang, "Go and help him!" Tian Guoqiang said: "This guy is really troublesome!" He muttered, walked over to push away those Yingsi, and helped Bai Erleizi up: "Seeing that you are usually quite courageous, you will stop the fire when it is critical. Follow along!" Over there, First Young Master Liu broke the conversation and asked Zhang Enpu what the hell are these things? Zhang Enpu also shook his head and said he didn't know, maybe it was a ghost. When Bai Erlei heard that these Yingsi were ghosts, he collapsed again with an ah.

It took Tian Guoqiang a lot of effort to pull this coward up. Everyone walked down the stone steps slowly. After walking for more than ten meters, they came to a corner, and suddenly saw a person standing at the corner. Young Master Liu and others immediately stopped and looked carefully. that figure. The figure was only half a person tall, standing there motionless, with its arms raised up, as if holding something. First Young Master Liu decisively raised his shotgun, bravely shouted and asked: "Hey, who is the one in front of you, tell me your name! Oh, what can I ask you? If you don't say anything, I'll blow your head off with one shot!"

Zhang Enpu stepped forward and said, "May I ask your surname, why are you standing here?" Young Master Liu said: "Master, don't talk nonsense with him, these evil spirits and ghosts are not good, let me kill him with one shot!" "Hey, wait a minute!" Tian Guoqiang boldly walked over, and gradually, the figure appeared within the light range of the flashlight.Looking at the man at first glance, he was so startled that the flashlight almost fell to the ground. First Young Master Liu said nervously, "Qiangzi, what's wrong?" Tian Guoqiang waved at him and said, "It's nothing, it's a child!"

Child? !Why is there a child standing here for no reason?Which family's child is this? He came here for a walk in this ancient tomb? Everyone came up curiously, Young Master Liu shone the flashlight on the child, "Look!" The child was about half a person tall, with knees on the ground, arms raised, and a bronze disc with half a candle on it in his palm.The child had regular facial features, was neatly dressed, his limbs were intact, and his immature eyes were wide open, as if he hadn't had a good look at this colorful world yet.His face was so lifelike that he looked like he was alive.

First Young Master Liu poked the child with the barrel of the gun, and the barrel of the gun poked on the child's body, making a crisp thumping sound, and the child's stomach seemed to be empty. He was full of doubts, why did this child appear here?Could it be that this is also the funeral object of the owner of the tomb?His grandfather's, if that's the case, the owner of this tomb is too fucking devoid of conscience! Zhang Enpu stepped forward to take a closer look at the child and said, "You are right, this child is indeed the funeral object of the owner of the tomb. It is recorded in "Zhengyifu Compilation" that this kind of child's corpse is called Mercury Child Corpse!"

Mercury Child Corpse?Just hearing the name, Young Master Liu felt his hairs stand on end. Zhang Enpu explained: "The body of the mercury child was a common funeral object for ancient feudal rulers or dignitaries. Because the child's soul is very clean and has not been polluted by this world, it is considered to be the purest funeral object. Usually made The children who were sacrificed for the funeral had to choose the kind of handsome and intelligent children. After the feudal rulers selected these children, they locked them together in one place, and then served them with good meat and vegetables. Very happy, eating big fish and meat every day, so happy, but they don't know, they have reached the end of death. After eating and drinking for three days, the feudal rulers will give these children a kind of medicine. Once the medicine is taken, the contents of the stomach will be spit out, and after they have completely emptied the contents of the stomach , the feudal rulers fed these children little by little mercury, and the mercury accumulated in their stomachs and accumulated more and more. This process took about seven days.This process is quite painful, the mercury will corrode the internal organs of these children little by little, and then penetrate into the bone marrow little by little, and finally, all the blood vessels of these children are full of mercury.At this time, these children will die.The feudal rulers steamed these mercury-fed children in a steam kiln for three days and three nights, and those poor children became artworks one after another in the steam kiln.Three days later, the corpses of these children coming out of the steaming kiln became the real corpses of mercury children. At this time, the corpses of mercury children looked lifelike, exactly like real people! " When Zhang Enpu spoke up to this point, First Young Master Liu felt his stomach churn, and couldn't help but vomited up the steamed buns he ate just now.When he vomited, Tian Guoqiang and Bai Erlaizi also vomited.This quicksilver child's corpse is simply too frightening. Thinking of those children being forced to swallow the poisonous mercury, Young Master Liu's stomach hurts like a spasm. Bai Erlei wiped his mouth and said, "Damn Xipi, are these rulers still human? They can even think of such perverted things, they're just fucking useless!" Young Master Liu nodded: "These children are really pitiful, master, why don't the parents of these children hide their children? Are they just letting the rulers take their children away?"
