Chapter 232 Chapter 67: Living Figurines

I shivered in shock.I turned my head cautiously and illuminated it with the light, and sure enough, the man's face was facing me, staring at me. I shrank my neck, and I didn't care about the disgusting carrion in the water. I dived into the water again, kicked the planer as hard as I could, and swam back.After all this thumping, I finally swam back again, and as soon as I poked my head out of the water, I hurriedly called out to Da Ya, asking Da Ya to give me a hand. After my feet left the water, I turned over and sat on the shore. I only knew that I was panting heavily, and I couldn't say a word.

Seeing that my expression was wrong, Liu Ye realized that something was wrong, so she quickly took a photo on the water surface with a flashlight. After a long time, until the water surface returned to calm and there was nothing unusual, Liu Ye turned around and asked me what happened .Why do you look so bad. I shook my head, tried my best to calm down my nervous mood, and then told me about the pile of carrion corpses I saw under the water and the person lying on the shore. After I finished speaking, both Liu Ye and Da Ya gasped.Da Ya looked towards the water, then asked me with staring eyes: "Lai Liang, can you see clearly, what does that person on the shore look like? Male or female? Dead or alive?"

I shook my head: "How can I have the mood to look carefully, it seems to be a man, staring at me, I was so scared that I quickly slipped back, if I wait until I see clearly, I probably won't be able to come back Already!" However, as I was talking, I also felt a little guilty. At that time, I could only care about being afraid, and I didn’t really look at it carefully. I glanced at it and dived into the water. What does a person look like? Could it be a dead person?Thinking of this, I took another look at Big Tooth and Liu Ye, and said to myself somewhat uncertainly, "Could it be a dead person?"

Liu Ye didn't make a sound, and shook her head at this time: "Since there are rotting corpses under the water, it means that people have come here before, and they also passed through the water. Maybe it's not all bad things, from another point of view. .This place is really the treasure of King Khan we are looking for!" I glanced at Liu Ye, understood what Liu Ye meant, stroked his neck with my hand, and asked Liu Ye: "You mean, murder to silence? These people were those who participated in the treasure burying, and they were all killed afterwards? " In the past era, such things were indeed commonplace, and in order to keep a secret, it was a last resort.The ruling class does not regard these lower class people as human beings at all. They believe in: "Only the dead can keep secrets. Maybe these people who died in vain also lost their lives because of this."

Da Ya rolled his eyes, stretched his neck to look over, then looked back at us, and said to himself: "It seems that we are getting closer and closer to this treasure, one foot in and one foot out of the door! Shall we go and have a look again?" When I heard this, my heart tightened, I waved my hands at Da Ya repeatedly, pointed to my stomach, and told them that I had almost vomited on it before, and I was tossing and tossing again just now.Now that the arm has no strength at all, and the physical exertion is gone, it is better to take a rest first, eat something, and if you have the physical strength, you can bear the toss. move!

Hearing what I said, Da Ya also touched his stomach, and nodded in agreement: "Don't say it, my stomach is a little responsive to what you said, so let's rest for a while, damn it!" , I'm afraid it won't run away, wait for Master Cheng to eat and drink enough, take care of my head, and watch me take the lead!" Seeing Da Yayan's naked face, I have nothing to do.Looking around, there was no way to light a fire here, so everyone chewed some bread and biscuits, swallowed cold water, and swallowed hard. It tasted like chewing wax, but I was so hungry that I no longer considered it palatable. The stomach is the real one, and it doesn't take much effort to gobble up food and drink.As soon as I ate enough, my stomach was full, and I didn't feel so cold on my body.

Da Ya was only thinking about the treasure. Seeing that I had finished eating, he quickly clapped his hands and stood up, and then patted his body. Seeing that it didn't mean to go into the water, but to take off, I couldn't help but sarcasm him One sentence. Da Ya gave me a "tsk": "You know six, this is similar to winter swimming, you have to warm up in advance, otherwise you will have cramps, you think I don't know that the water is cold, like your green head Yes, I stabbed it down with a single slash, and if I managed to climb back up alive, I would be burned!"

When I heard this, I couldn't help but get angry. Da Ya knew that the water was unpleasant, and he didn't make a sound when he was exploring the way. coming.I wonder.Whether this treasure exists or not is another matter.The pile of rotten meat and scum under the water is enough for people to bear. I don't want to see that pile of work masters anymore. Whoever has the strength to rush forward, out of sight and out of mind. Seeing that Da Ya was almost moving, Liu Ye and I also got up and jumped on the spot, moved our hands and feet, and I told Da Ya that the things in the water were easy to handle.Just hold back and don't vomit, or just don't look at it, but the guy on the shore, whether he is alive or dead, whether he is an enemy or a friend is still unclear, so he must be careful. , let's go again.

Da Ya turned his head and posed for us. After gesturing, he jumped into the water with a "plop" and disappeared immediately. Liu Ye and I stood on the shore, not daring to walk away, listening to the movement with fear. Five or six minutes later, I finally heard the whistle. Liu Ye and I glanced at each other and smiled.I put the back of Liu Ye on my back with my hands, and told Liu Ye not to look around in the water, just follow me.Liu Ye smiled at me gratefully, and knew that I was worried that she would not be able to bear it after seeing those carrion corpses, and that there would be no danger under the water.

After I looked back at Liu Ye, I jumped into the water carefully, waved my hand at Liu Ye, and Liu Ye gritted her teeth and jumped down. As soon as I jumped into the water, my whole body trembled and shivered. Seeing Liu Ye clenched her teeth, she nodded at me, signaling that it's okay, and told me that I just didn't expect the water to be so cold, just get used to it. I nodded and asked her to follow me, then shrank back and dived underwater. This time I had a long memory underwater, and I didn't look there at all. I saw a bright light in front of me.It must have been Da Ya who took pictures on the shore and marked us underwater. I hurriedly swam over, stepped on the water, exposed my head, took Da Ya's hand, climbed up the bank, and then turned around and gave the willow leaves to the water. Pulled up.

Da Ya pointed to a corpse on the bank and shook his head at me: "Here, this is the guy you said was staring at you, he was dead long ago. I don't know who is idle and has nothing to do. It was covered in mud, and my lower body was covered, which shocked me a lot.” Liu Ye and I were a little surprised, so we quickly stood up, walked a few steps forward, and saw that the upper body of this skeleton was completely decomposed, with its back facing upwards, lying on the ground, revealing rows of ribs.As expected, the lower body was covered with a thick layer of black mud, as Da Ya said, it looked extremely strange. Liu Ye looked at it, suddenly her face changed, she covered her mouth with her hand, and turned around quickly.I thought it was because she was a little disgusted when she saw the rotten bones, so I quickly pulled her back a few steps. Liu Ye stroked her chest with her hand to calm down her excitement, then she looked up at me and told me that it was a living figurine. Living figurines? I've heard of the use of living people to be buried, but what's the matter with these living figurines?Could it be that the living people were directly made into clay figurines? Liu Ye frowned and looked over there, and then explained that making "living figurines" is a very cruel thing.According to some ancient records, the living people were stunned with drugs first, then their bodies were used as a model, and then they were directly covered with clay mud to suffocate them to death, and finally suffocated to death, and made into clay figurines. After the figurines are finished, they are placed according to their identities in life, such as soldiers, coachmen, maids, etc. This way, the final clay figurines are naturally lifelike and lifelike, highlighting the dignity of the deceased. Da Ya and I were also taken aback when we heard such a heinous thing, suddenly, I remembered something, and asked Liu Ye: "Could the clay figurine that floated up underwater be this kind of living figurine? " Liu Ye lowered her head and thought for a while, then shook her head: "It's hard to say, but seeing the original face of this clay figurine, I think that's how it was made, and I can't tell." When Da Ya heard this, he looked at the living figurine on the bank, shook his head, and said to Liu Ye: "Sister, you said that the lower body of this 'dead' is muddy, but the upper body is flesh. Could this be like what you said, after he fainted, he made the figurine, woke up again, and took off the shell by himself?" Liu Ye frowned, looked at the shattered clod next to the corpse, and nodded without comment. In ancient times, human sacrifice was practiced. After the death of the slave owner, the slave was buried with the slave owner, and the living person was sacrificed as a sacrificial object. This is also a feature of the slavery society.Later, after entering the feudal society, this kind of burial was not too cruel, so it was gradually replaced by figurines, which can be regarded as a symbol of the progress of human society. This kind of figurines usually only appear in tombs. Since there are figurines here, Is there a tomb here?Who were these figurines buried with? I took another look at the figurine who died unjustly, sighed, and was about to tell Da Ya and Liu Ye to move on, don’t waste time here, when I accidentally saw the single sword in the figurine’s hand , There was a "buzz" in my head, and it went blank.
