Chapter 338 Abandoned Processing Factory
Although they have seen many strange things along the way, but when they suddenly saw such an evil thing, everyone still couldn't help but feel chills in their bodies.
"Looking at the situation, I'm afraid Nuomi is almost in trouble." After everyone saw clearly what was going on in Wang Kaixuan's mouth, Hu Bayi said with a frown.
He had already put the glutinous rice back in his hand and replaced it with black donkey hooves. It seemed that he planned to use this thing to exorcise Wang Kaixuan from evil spirits.
Chen Ziyan did not respond immediately, but stared at Wang Kaixuan silently.
In fact, he was no stranger to this 'beautiful head', but he thought that with his intervention, this thing would never appear again.
Unexpectedly, the ultimate thing that was coming was not able to be avoided. This thing still attached itself to Wang Kaixuan.
At the same time, Chen Ziyan finally realized why he felt a familiar feeling when he heard Shirley Yang describe what happened.
Because in the original plot, when Wang Kaixuan was possessed by the spirit body of Shan Po, wasn’t that exactly how he behaved?
Hu Bayi didn't wait for the expected response, and he didn't care too much. He just thought that the others acquiesced to his idea.
He immediately stopped hesitating, stepped forward, held Wang Kaixuan's shaking lower jaw with one hand, and directly inserted the black donkey's hoof in his hand.
“Woooooooo——”
Compared to the special glutinous rice mixed with cinnabar, the black donkey’s hooves can be said to have an immediate effect.
At first Wang Kaixuan struggled hard, but after waiting for more than ten seconds, his struggle stopped abruptly, his eyes turned from crazy to dazed, and his whole person gradually stopped.
"It has to be the method left by our ancestors. It works!" Hu Bayi couldn't help but sigh when he saw the black donkey's hooves taking effect.
However, he also knew in his heart that the reason why it was so effective was because the black donkey hooves they carried were refined by ancient methods. If they just used them casually like they did, it would probably be equally effective. It won't be as immediate as this.
But then a look of worry appeared on Hu Bayi's face, he looked at Chen Ziyan and asked: "Mr. Chen, what do you think of this sarcoma? It can't always be like this. What will happen next in the tomb of King Xian?" There may still be many risks, but we cannot leave such a hidden danger."
Although the black donkey's hooves have suppressed the evil spirits attached to Wang Kaixuan, this is purely a temporary solution, not the root cause. There is still a long way to go, and it will definitely not be a problem if it continues like this.
That would mean that not only Wang Kaixuan himself would lose his combat effectiveness, but also an extra person would need to keep an eye on his situation. This would undoubtedly be equivalent to losing two effective combat effectiveness of the team at the same time.
Although they have sufficient personnel, they cannot afford such consumption!
"How about...picking this thing?" Chen Ziyan raised an eyebrow at him and told him the solution in the original plot.
Although there were no steps to destroy the Jade Tongue, now that the Jade Tongue was placed in his personal space, it was no different from being destroyed, so he felt that this method should work.
"This... is a solution." Hu Bayi only hesitated for two seconds and nodded decisively.
He also felt that long-term pain was worse than short-term pain. The sarcoma didn’t look like a fun thing anyway, so it was better to physically remove it first.
Shirley Yang also thought of the relevant records she had read at this time, and hurriedly said: "It is said that there is a tongue poison in Thailand that can control people's vocalizations. This is the birthplace of the ancient head-lowering technique in southern Yunnan. , I think there will be similar Gu magic, Fatty is most likely it.”
After regaining her composure, Shirley Yang tried to use her knowledge to explain the origin of the tumor on Wang Kaixuan's tongue.
In this way, they may be able to find a reasonable explanation and come up with practical solutions, which are better than vague and general evil spirits.
After hearing what Shirley Yang said, Hu Bayi thought for a while and shook his head and said: "We don't know much about voodoo, even if it is really a tongue voodoo and not caused by the Possession of Shan Po. , and it is impossible to find a way to crack it. "
If they knew about the poison, they would not be so helpless when the big golden tooth was possessed.
While talking, Hu Bayi took out his paratrooper knife, took out his lighter and began to disinfect the blade.
It seemed that no matter what it was, he planned to get it down first.
But just when he was ready to leave, Ding Sitian suddenly stopped him: "Bayi, wait a minute!"
Hu Bayi was puzzled. Looking over: "What's wrong?"
Ding Sitian glanced at Wang Kaixuan, and then said: "Remember the yin and yang tattoo I just said?"
Hu Ba nodded: "Remember."
"I heard that an embroiderer I know mentioned that if you can have in-depth contact with the main body of the material before tattooing, it will be of great benefit to future tattoos." Ding Sitian hesitated a little said.
Obviously, even though she said this, she herself was dubious about it.
However, considering that her friend never lied, she decided to give it a try.
"So... you want Fatty to stay in this state longer?" Hu Bayi understood what she meant and asked with a frown.
Ding Si nodded: "That's right."
Although she wasn't sure if this would work, she figured her friend wouldn't lie to her, which meant it would be a good thing.
After looking at Ding Sitian for a while, Hu Bayi turned to look at Chen Ziyan and asked: "Master Chen, what do you think?"
In fact, he already believed Ding Sweet words.
Since it was a good thing for Wang Kaixuan, he was not in a hurry to take action.
After all, this situation was a crisis before, but now it can be called an opportunity, and opportunities cannot be given up easily.
As for the other hidden meaning in Ding Sitian's words, that is, if Wang Kaixuan is allowed to continue like this, then the paint made from Shan Po's jade tongue must be used on this fat man, Hu Bayi is one of them. Don't care either.
In his opinion, the so-called yin and yang tattoos are the same no matter who they are.
However, he also knows that he is not the person in charge of the team, so if Wang Kaixuan continues in this state, it will inevitably have an impact on the team, and this is not something he can decide, so he asked Chen Ziyan for his opinion.
Basically, as long as he and Chen Ziyan agree on something, no one else will have any objections.
It can be said that they can completely represent the entire team.
"This is a good thing!"
Hearing this, Chen Ziyan first set a tone for the matter, and then said:
"But our time is tight and we cannot stay here too long. , so the fat man is left to Lao Huqian.”
This is the premise that the pace of exploration cannot be delayed.
Although according to Ding Sitian, it is a good thing for Wang Kaixuan to continue to remain in this confused state, they cannot lose the big for the small. You must know that the Muchen Bead is not only the most valuable item in King Xian's tomb, but also affects the lives of several people in the team, so it is undoubtedly the top priority of this trip.
"I understand, don't worry, Mr. Chen." As soon as Hu Ba heard this, he immediately patted his chest and expressed his assurance.
Even if Chen Ziyan asked others to take Wang Kaixuan, he would not agree.
What's more, he also understands the principle that things have priorities, and he also knows why Chen Ziyan said this.
The meaning of these words is obviously to warn him that sometimes it is necessary to give up when things are good.
If there is a particularly urgent situation, the sarcoma must be removed directly to allow Wang Kaixuan to recover.
If there is no emergency, let it stay on the fat man and lay a good foundation for future yin and yang tattoos.
Although the others did not say anything, they all knew what was going on.
They have no objection to the decision of Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi. Anyway, there is no danger at this stage, so why not let Wang Kaixuan add more knowledge, which is also a good thing for the future of the entire team.
After the arrangements for Wang Kaixuan were decided, Hu Bayi immediately tied up the guy again so that he could walk with him.
Fortunately, because of the effectiveness of the black donkey's hooves, although Wang Kaixuan is now confused, he no longer has the crazy aggressiveness before, so Hu Bayi does not need to expend too much energy.
Now that the decision had been made, they did not stay too long on the shore and immediately decided to enter the Xuan Palace.
Hua Hu took the lead, and everyone used climbing ropes to connect everyone together. Then they followed the last route of action and arrived at the gap that was knocked out.
After a brief observation, everyone followed the gap and entered in an orderly manner.
After Shirley Yang confirmed that there were no traps in the tomb passage, the group of people began to move deeper into the tomb passage.
Just like what Hu Bayi had imagined before, not all areas of the Xuan Palace were soaked in water, and even before they completely left the tomb passage, the depth of the dark water only reached the waist.
After walking through a set of stone steps, the depth of the water dropped sharply to the ankles, and the area here became more spacious.
What appeared in front of Chen Ziyan and the others at this moment was a huge stone platform, on which dozens of bronze figures, bronze horses and bronze chariots were neatly displayed.
These bronze statues seem to have been in a humid environment all year round, so they have mottled rust on them, especially the lower half.
Seeing these green bronze statues, Chen Ziyan had an indescribable strange feeling in his heart.
This feeling is very similar to the feeling I had when I saw those bronze statues in Minglou.
But these bronze statues here, compared with the special-shaped bronze statues in Minglou, are quite regular, so there is a difference between the two.
But before Chen Ziyan could think about it carefully, he heard Hu Bayi's greeting: "Look here."
He put aside his doubts and moved toward Hu Bayi's location Go.
Hu Bayi was standing at the back of the bronze statues. When Chen Ziyan walked over and took a look, he saw that there was a layer of stone platform under the stone platform where they were standing.
On the stone platform below, there are many mummies of ancient men. These corpses are arranged in a disorderly manner. At a rough glance, there must be hundreds at least.
Going over and taking a closer look, Chen Ziyan discovered that these mummies could not be piled here randomly, because they were all specially treated corpses.
These mummies had their ears and noses cut off, and their eyes gouged out. Although the conditions inside the mouths could not be seen, the tongues must have been pulled out.
After a little thought, Chen Ziyan guessed something. Looking at the shocking scene in front of him, he expressed his opinion: "If I read it correctly, these corpses should have been poured with heat while alive." Wax, it became what it looks like now after being tortured.”
He has seen this cruel method in ancient books before, so he can tell a lot about it.
Hu Bayi heard this and said in confusion: "But this doesn't look like a person who was buried. If it was a person who was buried, it shouldn't be thrown here so casually. But if it wasn't a person who was buried, why would it be like this?" What about the elaborate preparation? "
This is a bit contradictory, at least in his opinion.
In fact, this is what Chen Ziyan is puzzled about, but he can't think of a reasonable explanation for a while.
“There are too many weird things in this tomb of King Xian.” After a moment of silence, Chen Ziyan sighed helplessly.
I have to say that since they beat Zhelong Mountain, they have basically never heard of the strange things they encountered. In fact, this is already considered good.
At least these mummies showed no signs of suddenly standing up and attacking them.
After carefully scanning the platform in front of him but finding nothing, Chen Ziyan temporarily put down the mummies and looked deeper into the space.
But what surprised Chen Ziyan was that at the end of the stone platform was not the underground palace gate he imagined, but a gentle slope made of bluestone, with a dark hole at the bottom of the slope.
There was a rammed earth bag on both sides of the cave entrance, which surprised everyone.
Because everyone present has never heard of this weird custom of building a mound of earth in the underground palace.
"Did we think wrong?" Just as everyone was lost in thought, Shirley Yang suddenly said this.
Chen Ziyan looked at her subconsciously, "Shirley, what did you find?"
Shirley Yang asked back: "We all subconsciously thought that this was the underground palace of King Xian's tomb, but if this is not No?"
"Why do you say that?" Chen Ziyan felt that he had touched the key, but it was not thorough enough, so he asked.
Shirley Yang walked to the edge of the stone platform, shined the flashlight on the mummies below, and said: "Look at these mummies, old and young, strong and strong, and they were thrown here randomly after being severely punished. It’s not like they should be treated as slaves who were buried. I think they should be treated as prisoners who were sentenced to death.”
After hearing this, Hu Bayi looked around and suddenly clapped his hands: "I just said that something is wrong. It turns out that the number of bronze men and horses here is wrong, and the people are still in a state of holding no weapons and the horses are not as good as whips. This is obviously It’s a semi-finished product!”
Hearing what the two said one after another, Chen Ziyan suddenly realized that this is the processing factory where King Xian cast bronze figures and carved stone animals for the king’s tomb.
The mummies everywhere are the craftsmen who worked here.
Actually, Chen Ziyan should have thought of this a long time ago, but in his previous life, he only paid attention to such side details and did not pay as much attention to the 'main plot' at all, so this situation occurred. .
