The first thousand four hundred and ninety-six chapters human skin
"Master Qin, in ancient times, there were some experts in animal training who would indeed tame some animals to help them guard the mountain gates or caves. This chimpanzee might have been trained by the mausoleum guardians." A worshiper looked at Qin Yu and was mentioned
The chimpanzee in the hand replied.
"So, this chimpanzee should be able to understand what we are saying?"
Qin Yu looked at the chimpanzee in front of him, and he always felt that something was wrong. Although chimpanzees and humans are close relatives, the expression changes on the face of the chimpanzee in front of him were almost the same as those of humans.
"Hey, this is it?"
Qin Yu suddenly discovered that there was a chain on the top of the chimpanzee's head, restraining the chimpanzee. After Qin Yu's hands removed the hair on the chimpanzee's head, he was shocked again.
Because this chain is directly embedded in the skin of the chimpanzee's head, that is to say, someone made a hole on the top of the chimpanzee's head and then put the chain in.
Such a scene is very cruel just thinking about it, but surprisingly, this chimpanzee survived.
Qin Yu gently moved the chain, trying to see if the chimpanzee had any pain reaction. But what surprised Qin Yu was that instead of showing an expression of pain on the chimpanzee's face, he showed an expression of enjoyment.
He struggled again, squinting his eyes, looking very comfortable.
"Well……"
Qin Yu was speechless and took his hands off the chain. This chimpanzee couldn't be a masochist.
"Master Qin, this chimpanzee must have been tamed by the mausoleum guardians and was sent to monitor us. In my opinion, it is better to kill it directly." One of the worshipers said with murderous intent.
"No, Liu Feng and Professor Wang are still in their hands. If the chimpanzee is killed, the tomb guards will take revenge on Professor Wang and the others, which would be bad." Another worshipper quickly stopped him.
"It's not okay to kill him, so he can't let him go."
"Of course you can't let it go."
…
The two priests were arguing. After Qin Yu pondered for a moment, he said, "Take this chimpanzee with you on the road."
Qin Yu held the chimpanzee in one hand and grabbed the fur on the back of the other's neck, just like he was holding a cat. Although the chimpanzee kept struggling, Qin Yu's hands were like iron hoops and he struggled no matter what.
Not open.
Compared with Qin Yu's casualness, the three worshipers were cautious along the way, for fear of getting into trouble. However, until the four of them reached the end of the Tongtian Stairs, no accidents happened, which made the three worshippers relax.
One breath.
At the end of the Tongtian Stairs, there is a stone door. This stone door is integrated with the walls on both sides. If it were not for the fact that the stone door is ajar with a gap left, I am afraid Qin Yu and the others would regard it as a wall.
"It seems that those guarding the tomb have entered this stone gate." One of the worshipers expressed his opinion.
"That's not right. If these tomb-keepers enter the stone gate, there is no reason not to close the stone gate. The stone gate and the wall are integrated and there is no difference at all. If the tomb-keepers close the stone gate, I'm afraid we will think
It’s not that easy to find out.”
"Could it be that the guardian of the tomb was in a hurry and had no time to close the stone door?"
"It shouldn't be. You know, we went back the same way. We still have enough time." The worshiper shook his head.
Qin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly after listening to the words of the three worshipers, and after a while he replied: "The other party is provoking us and deliberately exposing the door to us. Whether we dare to go in or not depends on our own courage."
"Do you dare to go in?" Qin Yu looked at the three worshipers, who hurriedly beat their chests to show that they were fearless.
"That's enough. The soldiers will come and cover up the water and earth. Let's go in."
Pushing the stone door with both hands, the stone door slowly opened. However, after the stone door was opened, the scene inside made the three worshipers take a breath.
It is still a passage, but this passage is no longer dark, but full of light. On both sides of the passage, there are everlasting lamps erected, and the flames are far brighter and clearer than ordinary candlelight.
"Use the mermaid paste as a candle to save the immortal for a long time." Qin Yu slowly spat out these words.
This is a description of Qin Shihuang’s tomb in historical records, and the situation before us is completely consistent with this description. These candles are specially made from a certain kind of fish fat. Not only are they bright, but most importantly, they burn two thousand
After many years, it still hasn’t burned out.
"Why does fish fat have such miraculous effects?" A worshiper curiously walked into one of the candles and observed it.
"There was a dragon in the East China Sea that was causing trouble. Later the First Emperor sent people to kill it. Legend has it that when the dragon was killed, it was originally planned to completely burn it with fire. However, the fire burned on the dragon for three full months and the flames were not extinguished. Later, there were
The master pointed out that the dragon's body can be used as an immortal fire and cannot be burned out." Qin Yu replied calmly.
"Master Qin, do you mean that these white candles are made from the fat of dragons?"
"Yeah." Qin Yu nodded. In fact, when he saw the description of Qin Shihuang's tomb in historical records, he thought of what this so-called mermaid ointment was.
This passage is very long. At a glance, the white candles on both sides look like two long white lines, stretching to an unknown depth.
What surprised Qin Yu was that when he walked into this passage, the chimpanzee in his hand suddenly stopped struggling and became very docile, but Qin Yu could feel that the chimpanzee's body was shaking.
This was not a tremor caused by being caught by oneself, but a tremor caused by a certain fear after entering this passage.
However, this passage looks very ordinary. Apart from these dragon candles, there is nothing special about it. Where did the chimpanzee's fear come from?
"Everyone, be careful." Thinking of this, Qin Yu reminded the three of them, and then the four of them walked cautiously towards the front of the passage.
Then, after passing a corner at the entrance of the passage, Qin Yu and the four of them all stopped and looked ahead with serious expressions. In front of them, there was a coffin.
This coffin definitely does not belong to Qin Shihuang, because it is recorded in historical records that Qin Shihuang placed a copper coffin into the coffin. In other words, the outermost layer of Qin Shihuang's coffin was a copper coffin.
Even if Qin Shihuang's coffin is not a copper coffin, it will definitely not be the one in front of you, because this coffin is too shabby. It is placed so alone in the passage with nothing around it. It looks more like an abandoned coffin.
.
A worshiper glanced at Qin Yu, and then walked towards the coffin. However, when he was only one meter away from the coffin, the chimpanzee in Qin Yu's hand suddenly let out a scream.
's cry.
This cry was full of fear and unwillingness. Upon seeing this, Qin Yu immediately called out to the worshiper.
"There's something weird about this coffin, don't rush to open it yet." After Qin Yu stopped the worshiper, he planned to go and have a look in person. However, the chimpanzee struggled violently, and his whole face was twisted together.
Obviously he didn't want to get close to the coffin.
Qin Yu thought for a moment, and finally handed the chimpanzee to another worshiper to hold, and signaled the three worshippers to step back, and then walked to the black coffin alone.
Qin Yu didn't know why the chimpanzee was so afraid of this coffin, but with his current state, if there were scary people in this coffin, he would be able to sense it, but Qin Yu didn't feel any danger.
.
After slowly pushing the coffin away, Qin Yu's eyes fell on the copper coffin, and he was stunned.
There was only one thing in that coffin, a human skin!
A piece of intact human skin, but strangely, the face of this human skin is blurred, with only a few lines outlining it, just like the face of a very simple puppet doll.
Even though Qin Yu is an expert and daring person, when he saw this human skin, he felt a little scared. This human skin is so complete, how was it peeled off from the human body?
In order to find out the reason, Qin Yu didn't care anymore, reached into the coffin, took out the complete human skin, and observed it carefully.
This scene made the three worshipers at the back feel numb. Just imagine, in a huge underground palace, in the strange passage are candles that have been burning for more than two thousand years, and then, a coffin suddenly appears. At this moment, in front of the coffin
, a young man held a piece of human skin in his hand and studied it over and over.
This is simply more terrifying than the horror scenes in horror movies.
However, when Qin Yu took out the human skin, the chimpanzee rioted again, and this time, he broke free from the offering hand and violently moved towards the original path.
"Hey." The worshiper turned around and was about to chase after him, but was stopped by Qin Yu.
"Forget it, there's no need to chase him."
Qin Yu stopped the offering and watched the chimpanzee disappear deep around the corner before his eyes fell on the human skin in his hand again.
After a while of observation, Qin Yu discovered several characteristics of the human skin. First, the human skin was very small, which meant that the owner of the human skin was a child and no more than five years old.
, Secondly, this human skin is not really complete. At the top of the human skin, where the Tianling Cap is, there is a hole. This hole is only as big as a long eye, so Qin Yu did not discover this hole at the first time.
"Master Qin, who is this human skin?" The chimpanzee ran away, and the three worshipers also approached. Looking at the human skin in Qin Yu's hand, the three of them looked a little pale.
"I probably understand why this chimpanzee is so afraid of this coffin." Qin Yu folded up the human skin and put it back into the coffin. Then, he said to the three worshippers: "Keep walking." (Unfinished)
