Chapter thirty-seven faceless boy

The two short figures seemed to be two 6-year-old children, a boy and a girl. They were both wearing red linen clothes and looked like they were wrapped in red cloth from head to toe.

And by the light of the flashlight, I discovered that their faces were actually painted on.

They were two pale faces with no facial features at all.

The eyes, nose, and mouth on the face are all painted with red cinnabar!

I swear, I have never seen anything so weird, or even heard of it.

The girl on the left is holding a bloody corpse in her hand, carrying it like a rag doll.

My whole body went limp and I almost collapsed to the ground.

That corpse with a ferocious face was the bloody face I saw before!

I always thought it was an hallucination caused by my excessive nervousness. After all, the place was so empty that there was no way to hide a body.

But now I know that what I experienced before was not an illusion at all, but a reality.

My whole body seemed to be frozen, and all I could think about was running away, but my feet just couldn't walk.

Those few seconds were the greatest torture in my life. It was only when the fat man shouted my name and a beam of light shone through the opened passage that the two young children turned around.

Go, the girl held the body in her arms like a rag doll, and then jumped away.

"Dingdang, what the hell are you doing? Are you staying here and marrying that white-haired zombie?"

The fat man showed his head and said angrily.

I was suddenly shocked. The two terrifying young children had disappeared without a trace. I panicked and got into the passage, my clothes all soaked with sweat.

After getting into the passage, I discovered that it was a ladder made of stone, spiraling downwards. The slope of this stone ladder was very steep, and my body almost went down vertically. It took me more than ten minutes, and my legs fell.

Only when your feet touch the ground.

The fat man jumped down behind me. Seeing my pale face, he asked: "Dingdang, what the hell are you doing? Why are you covered in sweat? Are you possessed by an evil spirit?"

My heart is still beating wildly at this moment. The scene just now was really scary!

Even though it has already passed, I still retain the image of those two faceless children and the 'dolls' they held in their hands. I feel that I will definitely have nightmares in the next few days.

I slapped my face hard, which scared the fat man, and he came over and touched my forehead.

I slapped the fat man's hand away, and then told everyone what happened just now.

"Face painted with cinnabar, two young children? Dingdang, do you really have a fucking fever? You should have a good rest first. I told you before, there is no place to hide anyone. If we had discovered it, we would have discovered it by now."

The fat man's eyes widened, and then he came over to touch my forehead.

I suddenly noticed a slight change in the face of the fourth girl, as if she knew something.

But before I could ask him, Chen Tuozi said first: "No matter what this thing is, drawing talismans was one of the common methods of Taoism during the Warring States Period, and cinnabar is the necessary material for drawing talismans, because cinnabar can suppress

Corpses to ward off evil spirits. At that time, some coffins were buried with charms on the faces of the corpses to prevent corpse fraud. I guess what you see, Dingdang, may not be the 'face', but the charms used to suppress the two young children!

"

Although Chen Tuozi couldn't tell the origin of this thing, he seemed a little uneasy about what I said.

"I'm talking about Lao Chen, do you understand it at all? Don't make random guesses, the fat man is giving you goosebumps..." the fat man said.

"I thought of some ancient classics. These two faceless children should have been tortured, that is, their noses were cut off, and then their nostrils, ears, and eyes were all covered with gold water. This method

It should be an ancient method of punishing evildoers. For those who commit heinous crimes, the executioner will call them evil spirits. In order to prevent the reincarnation of the evil spirits, the executioner will seal the seven orifices of the prisoner with gold water, so that the prisoner will never be reincarnated."

Lao Jintou said uncertainly, his mood seemed a bit unstable now.

"Old Jintou, you said those people who died in your team died inexplicably. Some of them even looked scared to death. Could it be that they met these two faceless children?"

I asked Lao Jintou nervously.

In fact, the first time I saw these two young children, I was almost scared to death.

Old Jintou stared at me with bulging eyes and a sneer on his lips, which confused me.

"I said, Lao Jintou, what are you doing?"

"When you passed by the tomb where the burial objects were placed, did you take anything inside?" Old Jintou asked.

"How many times do you have to explain it to me? I didn't take anything." I said angrily.

"I hope so. Anyway, I didn't lie to you. Anyone who took the burial objects here died miserably!" Lao Jintou looked a little strange, as if he didn't believe what I said.

"No matter what, if that thing can move freely in this thousand-year-old tomb as you see, then it is definitely not an easy thing to deal with! It might be even harder to deal with than the white-haired zombie in the hanging coffin.

"

Chen Tuozi frowned and said, he moved his arm, and the pain of the broken arm made him twitch the corner of his mouth.

"Shh."

The fourth girl suddenly made a sound. He put his hands on the wall and leaned forward slightly, as if he heard something.

Seeing his appearance, we immediately became nervous.

"Something is wrong here, please be careful." The fourth girl said in a very soft voice.

The fat man and I looked at each other and felt a little weird. The fourth girl seemed to deliberately lower her voice when she spoke, as if someone was eavesdropping around her.

But before we could understand what was going on, he walked forward quickly.

I was a little uneasy by the strange behavior of the fourth girl. I picked up the flashlight and looked around, but found that the surroundings were completely silent, and there seemed to be nothing going on.

I glanced at the surrounding environment. What I felt here was that it was much cleaner than the tomb chamber above. Even after thousands of years, I didn't feel that this place was that old.

We walked forward along the road on the ground. It was a winding and rugged path that went from narrow to wide. It also took a few steps and turned around, which made us dizzy.

Finally, after walking a few dozen meters and turning a corner, our field of vision suddenly became wider.

In front of us is a strange giant bronze door!

The reason why I say it's weird is because the door is shaped like a huge goat's head and is dark green in color. It's made of a single piece of copper ore and is almost as high as three or four stories high.

I said with a shocked face: "Has the smelting technology of the Warring States Period reached this level?"

You must know that it is much more difficult to smelt a huge piece of copper ore than a small piece, not to mention casting it into the shape of a sheep's head? Moreover, such a large door may weigh several tons! How did Li Si make it?

This huge bronze door was brought here? Could it be that a furnace was set up on the spot to smelt this huge door.

Chen Tuozi and the others were also shocked. He walked up quickly and observed the giant door at close range with some madness.

There were very clear reliefs on the surface of the giant door. I took a quick look at the reliefs and they seemed familiar.

"Aren't these the damn torture reliefs we saw earlier? The depictions here are even more vivid. Li Si is indeed a perfectionist, and the revolutionary cause needs such people!"

The fat man scolded Fang Qiu and said.

"Get out of here."

I didn't have time to pay attention to the fat man at the moment. I took a flashlight and carefully shined on these reliefs to see if I could find anything new.
