It was only then that we suddenly thought that maybe the artifacts in this copper box might be the artifacts used by the local barbarians in Zhelong Mountain in ancient times to pay tribute to the mountain gods.

I said to Fatty He: In the barren frontier land in the past, the barbarians often had the custom of fertility worship. This was related to the harsh living environment in remote areas in ancient times. At that time, human beings still seemed extremely small in front of nature. The number of people It is very rare. Natural disasters, big or small, may cause the entire tribe to become extinct. The only way is to have more babies. The more babies are born, the more people will be born, and the productivity will increase. So I think this jade fetus may be from ancient times. It is a fetal-shaped totem used to pray for women to have more children, symbolizing the prosperity of the population.

The fat man smiled and said: It's better than in ancient times. It's not like it is now. There are people everywhere and we have to implement family planning. Now we should oppose having more children and plant more trees. So this is not in line with the trend of social development. There's no point in leaving the things here. I'll keep them for now and go back to exchange for some money for cigarettes and alcohol.

I nodded and said: Although there is some truth to this, of course we should support family planning, but it is best not to touch these things casually now, because the details of this jade fetus have not yet been found out. Our purpose of this trip is to dedicate the tomb of the king and dig out the This Muchen Bead is related to our wealth and life. This is the top priority. You have to prioritize it.

Before I finished speaking, the fat man had already thought it was deafening. He reached for the jar and was about to smash it. He took out the jade embryo and stopped him. He said to the fat man: These ancient artifacts from the Yi people were hidden by the priest Xian Wang. The giant insect's belly shows that it is extraordinary. Before we know its purpose, we should not act rashly and look at the other two things first.

I saw the fat man’s eyes gleaming. If he hadn’t heard what we said to him, I just stretched out my hand and dragged him back. The fat man couldn’t stop complaining, saying that he had been enjoying the good times and dew all the way to Yunnan. Don’t touch his head. I have encountered so many dangers on my waistband. I have rolled it on the tip of a knife and rinsed it in a frying pan. I finally saw something real. Is there any reason not to take it?

I said to the fat man: There must be mountains of treasures in the Xuan Palace of King Xian’s ancient tomb. Why should I be greedy for the jade fetus in this jar? What’s more, this jade fetus has a faint evil aura and is not an ordinary thing. Maybe it will be good if I take it back. To cause trouble, we should take a longer view and not always focus on the things in front of us. Haven't you heard the chairman taught us that complaining is too common to prevent heartbreak, and we should take a long-term view.

The fat man muttered: I also heard his old man say that the Kunming pond is shallow. Watching fish is better than the Fuchun River, but the pond in Yunnan is not shallow at all.

Complaints are complaints, we still need to continue to check the other two mysterious artifacts in the large copper cabinet, otherwise one of them will be exposed, leaving some troubles, which will only bring us greater trouble when we enter the tomb of King Xian later.

The three of us looked at the other two compartments of the square copper box. On the other side was a large leather bag. The leather was the fur of a clouded leopard, and there were gold and silver threads tattooed on it. They were all patterns with charms and secret words. Inside It was bulging, as if it contained a lot of things. When I lifted it out, it didn't feel heavy, at least not as heavy as I imagined.

Seeing those strange spell marks, it can be seen that regardless of whether the jade fetus was left by the ancient Yi people, at least the contents of the leopard skin bag are related to King Xian. The talisman used to calm the soul is very unique, like A bunch of tadpoles crawling in one place in a very regular manner is unforgettable.

At this time, people have to be a little nervous. The vicious and cruel thing mainly embodies the resentment of the deceased. Injustice may become an invisible poison that kills people. It can also transfer this vicious breath of resentment to other objects, which is hard to guard against. But since Knowing that it was related to King Xian, I had to make up my mind and open the bag to find out.

We inspected the weapons and anti-virus equipment and discussed with each other for a few words. We saw that the mouth of the leopard skin bag was tightly tied with animal sinews and it was difficult to untie it for a while. We had to use a paratrooper knife to cut it. We immediately started working together and divided it into three and five. , and cut off the tendons of the beast.

After opening the leopard skin bag, a large number of human bones were immediately revealed inside. We had already been mentally prepared. There must be bones inside the soul-poking talisman, so we did not panic when we saw this. We immediately stepped back and waited to see what would happen.

After a while, I saw nothing strange, so I went back to check. I dumped the bones from the big skin bag on the ground. I immediately saw that there were three skeletons. These three withered bones had no clothes on them. I didn't know whether they were dead or not. Even though they were wearing nothing at all, the shape of their bones was also very strange. The skulls were big, the arm bones were long, and the leg bones were short. Judging from the size, they were all five. And looking at the bone density, the bone age was that of an old person. In the end, It was obviously a tooth that had grown all the way in and was very badly worn. It couldn't be a child's.

Judging from past experience, those who were sealed with soul-piercing talismans were all adults such as slaves. Children were never seen, and their bone age and body shape were so disproportionate that it was really difficult to figure out.

The fat man and I plucked up the courage and rummaged through the bones to see if there was anything else special. Unexpectedly, after rummaging through the bones, we found some ornaments, some of which were strung on gold rings. There are things like animal teeth, as well as scattered jade walls, and the most conspicuous thing is a small stone statue of a black toad.

After seeing it, he immediately said: The ornaments that the Yi people wear on the statues of mountain gods are not human bones. They must be the legendary mandrills. They are often considered to be mountain spirits. There are many detailed descriptions of them in ancient books. They are short in stature and have long arms like apes. , has a black face and white hair, can understand human speech, and can make wind and rain in the mountains. However, modern people have never seen it and think it is a fictitious creature. Some people say that it is based on the black-faced ghost baboon, so the black-faced ghost baboon in Africa is now The ghost baboon is also known as the mandrill. The mandrill in ancient Chinese legends is not the same as the current black-faced ghost baboon. Now it seems that these bones are most likely those of the ancient mandrill, and they are the true form of the mountain god.

It seems that these three mandrills were all killed by King Xian. They are regarded by the Yi people as gods who protect the mountains. The jade fetus may also be sacred objects valued by the Yi people. King Xian must have occupied this place. He unleashed such brutality that he corrupted the mountain god's bones and stuffed them into the belly of the giant insect together with the artifacts of the barbarians, turning it into a gastric tumor that prevented the Huo's undead insects from digesting floating corpses and eggs. To destroy the local people's faith and consolidate their dominance, whether this is really the case, I am afraid we will have to wait until we enter the tomb of King Xian in Dragon Halo and learn what he did in his life before we can know the exact answer.

We took a look at the giant insect lying on the ground not far away, covered in dragon scale demon armor and unable to die no matter what. It turned out that this big insect was not the original form of the mountain god, but the real mountain god was in his belly.

Pandora's Box, that is, the things on both sides of this square copper box, we have all looked at, and only the middle and most mysterious thing is left. The reason why we didn't touch it the first two times , but I specifically left him at the end because I couldn’t figure out what this thing was. I wanted to see what the other two items were first, so I could have some idea. Unexpectedly, the first two boxes were already extremely unexpected. , on the contrary, I can’t even guess what’s in the middle of the copper box.

The space in the middle of the copper box is much wider than the two sides. Looking at this layout, the most important items should be placed. The remaining two compartments are all related to the ancient Yi people who lived here. This item is probably the same. , but what it is specifically is hard to say. While the fat man and I started moving the things in the middle, I was thinking wildly: It was probably the corpse of the Yi tribe leader, and it was more likely an important artifact that King Xian had stolen from the Yi people.

We gently lifted it twice, but we couldn't take it out. In the middle was a small copper box similar to the square copper box outside. There was a ghost face cast on it. It looked extremely ugly, and there were wings on the back, as if it was a sky patrol. The yaksha has all kinds of strange decorations in every detail. At a glance, people will feel that it contains something special. Could it be that it is used to seal away evil spirits?

After taking a closer look, it turns out that the copper box is partially hollow, connected to the tiger-shaped keyhole on the side of the large copper cabinet. The inside is hollow. The black color is the same as the black water under the copper cabinet. I didn't notice it just now. It has no lock and can only be opened inside the copper box.

In order to avoid being injured by the mechanism, I still turned to the back and used a mountaineering pick to open the cover with the ghost head. As the ghost box opened, there was a faint blue light inside, and there was a blue inside the copper box. The three-legged toad, the fat man let out a sigh, and gently poked the toad with the mountaineering pick in his hand. There was a ding-dang sound, and it seemed to be made of stone. It turned out that the flying ghost-headed copper letter was used to support his bronze toad palace.

The blue three-legged strange toad is made of unknown materials. It is the size of a human head and has a plump body. It has a proud look on its head. Its shape is rare. Regardless of the materials used, it is already unique in appearance. It is a rare masterpiece and truly a divine object.

The fat man and I swallowed our saliva when we saw it. It is said that Chang'e took the elixir of immortality, flew to the moon palace, and transformed into a toad, so she was also regarded as the representative of the moon palace, symbolizing aloofness and describing a person's rapid rise to success. It was said that the Toad Palace won the title, and I wanted to take this strange toad out of the Toad Palace. I couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy in my heart. This blue three-legged strange toad must be the most valuable treasure in Zhelong Mountain. It is like this divine object. , unless good fortune comes to you, let alone putting it in a bag and taking it home, even if you take a look at it, it is a blessing that you have cultivated in your previous life.

In the face of this kind of treasure, we are much calmer than Fatty and I: be careful, be careful, the plants and insects in the cave are getting bigger and bigger, and there are at least two or more airplanes destroyed in the jungle. Maybe it's here, guarding the sky over the king's tomb

As soon as the words finished, the fat man and I didn't fully react. We suddenly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the cave. There were bursts of bones exploding at our feet. We hurriedly lowered our heads and saw that the three mountain god bones placed next to our feet were because of the The excessively high oxygen content in the Calabash Cave is causing qualitative changes, and all the bones are shrinking and turning black.

The oxidation was too fast, and the density of the bones of the mountain gods was several times higher than that of human bones, which caused the bones to make a sharp and strange cracking sound.

I took two steps back and said to Fatty He: These messy things are all very evil. No matter if they are artifacts or evil weapons, we might as well blow them all up with explosives to avoid any further trouble. After that, I started with Fatty’s. He went to dig out the explosives in his backpack, but the fat man stuffed a lot of gold fragments into the bag, and it took him a long time to dig out the explosives.

The fat man turned around and wanted to help me install the detonator. As soon as he turned around, he jumped on his feet, as if he saw something scary. He hurriedly pointed his legs. I followed his hands and almost jumped when I looked over. I woke up, and the cries of babies went straight into my ears. Book Alliance
