Ghost Blows Out the Light

face

Looking around the strange tomb, even the fat man, who never cared about anything, started to get scared. The fat man asked me, "Where is this old Hu?"

I glanced at him and said, "Ask me, I'll ask who. I remember clearly that we jumped down from the robbery hole in the middle of the Hades of the ancient tomb. It should be a not too high shaft connected to the slope below. How did you get here in the robbery hole?"

Da Jinya sucked his teeth and said: "Is there anything wrong with that? There is just such a robbery hole on the ground of the Hades, right in the middle of the vacant seat, and next to it should be the coffin of the tomb owner. Let's go around in the Hades." Three laps, besides the robbery hole, there are no other passages on the ground. This... really hit a wall."

I waved my hands at the two of them. It is useless to be suspicious now, and this is by no means as simple as ghosts building a wall. The stone coffin of the Western Zhou Dynasty appeared in the Hades of the ancient tomb of the Tang Dynasty. Could it be that the tomb we are in now is also Western Zhou Dynasty?Looking at the petroglyphs on the wall of the tomb, there are some faces with strange expressions. This narrow tomb chamber, or the tomb passage, must have a certain connection with the stone coffin with human faces in the Hades.

After we entered the Hades of the Tang Tomb, in order to save energy, among the three flashlights, only one of the big gold tooth was turned on. At this time, the big gold tooth handed the flashlight to me, and I lit a candle on the spot and clapped my hands Observe the surrounding environment electrically.

What we are in should be a tomb passage, with red ancient rock paintings on both sides. The color of the strokes of those paintings is as red as blood, bright as new. If this tomb passage is from the Western Zhou Dynasty, no matter how well preserved it is, it is impossible To achieve this effect, these petroglyphs are only one or two hundred years old at most.

Not only the petroglyphs, but also the rocks that make up the tomb passage have no traces of age-old stripping. Although it does not look like it has just been completed, it is by no means built thousands of years ago, and gray stubbles are still exposed in some places.

The tomb passage is about several meters wide, and both ends extend straight, with no end in sight. The tomb bricks are all huge rocks, simple and dignified, not like the luxurious and exquisite Tang tombs, but it has a thick and steady kingly air.

Da Jinya knew that I was familiar with the configuration and layout of ancient tombs, so he asked me the details of this tomb passage.

I shook my head and said to Da Jinya: "I'm not sure yet, if the stone coffin we found in the Hades is indeed an ancient relic from the Western Zhou Dynasty as you said, then this tomb passage is also very likely The stone coffin is matched with Jackie Chan, and they are all from the Western Zhou Dynasty, especially the patterns painted on the wall of this tomb are similar to the stone coffin."

The fat man said: "I bet it's definitely the same thing, ****, that big face, you can remember it for a lifetime just by looking at it, that half-smile, indifferent and weird expression, it's just picked out of a mold .”

I said to the fat man, "Little fat, what you said makes sense, but you didn't look carefully. The stone coffin we saw in the Hades had five stone-carved human faces on it, all with the same expression. If you look carefully Look at the petroglyphs in the tomb passage, the expressions are not so single."

The petroglyphs on the wall of the tomb show slightly distorted human faces, not all of them are like the ones on the stone coffin in the Hades. The five faces on the stone coffin are all expressionless, showing a touch of grotesqueness , and every face on the tomb wall is slightly different, with joy, sorrow, sorrow, anger, surprise, and injury, but no matter what kind of expression it is, it is different from normal people.

The fat man looked at a few faces on the wall of the tomb by the light of the candle, and said to me and Da Jinya: "Old Hu, I took a closer look and felt that there was something wrong with these faces. ...How should I put it, I know something is wrong in my heart, but I can't describe it, the expressions on these faces are so...then..."

I also saw the strangeness of those faces. Seeing that the fat man couldn't hold it back, I said it for him: "It's all so fake, it looks insincere, whether it's happy or angry, it looks fucking fake, like pretending." out of the heart, not out of the heart."

When I said this, both Da Jinya and the fat man agreed, and the fat man said: "That's right, it's fake, Lao Hu is still poisonous, I can see it too, but there are too many words in my stomach, I got stuck , I didn't remember it for a while."

Da Jinya said: "It is indeed the case. There is treachery in the smile, and mockery in the anger. Those of us who do business usually bargain with customers, so we have to pretend to be sincere and sincere. I think our expression at that time It’s fake enough, but compared with the human face painted on the wall of this tomb, it’s nothing like the big picture. The phony demeanor revealed in this expression... is not at all... the same as that of people who are not human beings at all. Made it."

Da Jinya's last words made me feel a chill in my heart. Looking at the faces on the murals, I said to Fatty and Da Jinya: "I also feel this way, I just can't think of it. Is it so weird? Even opera singers don't have such faces, I think the situation we are facing now has something to do with these faces, but... what do these faces symbolize?"

Although I often advertise myself as the authentic Captain Mojin, I am only good at looking at Fengshui, looking for dragon veins and finding treasure halls, and secondly, what I have learned from "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Fengshui Secret Art", and the tombs of past dynasties. The layout is very familiar, but when it comes to some cultural factors, historical background, and identification of cultural relics, they all have a half-knowledge.

Apart from some intuitive feelings, I don’t know anything about the giant-faced stone coffins and the rock paintings with strange expressions on the walls of the tombs. He is not a professional archaeologist, at least he has many years of experience in the antique world.

I said to Big Gold Tooth and Fatty: "Little Fatty, Lord Jin, I see that there are many unimaginable things in this ancient tomb. There is no way for us to wander around like this. If we go around like this, maybe we will encounter something." Now we have to think of some countermeasures.”

The fat man asked: "Old Hu, do you have any ideas? If you want to, tell me quickly, don't sell your official position, can you do it? I won't hide it from you. I'm really fucking scared now."

I know that the fat man is not a person who speaks fear lightly. He wants to say the word fear because of the situation we are facing now and there is no way to do it. Although life is not threatened, his nerves are almost tormented to the point of collapse.So I said to the fat man: "I haven't thought of any solution right now. The premise of finding a countermeasure depends on us figuring out what's going on. Now it's like fighting on the battlefield. In an ambush, I know the enemy is in the dark, so I can only be beaten passively, and there is no room for retaliation. Because we don't know what kind of situation we are facing."

The fat man said helplessly: "Now the three of us are like three little mice in other people's hands. We are being manipulated into a dizzy state, but we still don't know what's going on. Next time we don't bring weapons and explosives. Enter the ancient tomb again."

I smiled wryly and said, "Let's talk about it next time." I asked Da Jinya again: "Master Jin, I think we are in a strange environment, but there is no danger to our lives for the time being. As long as you get your head straight, escaping is not a problem. After all, you haven’t spent so many years throwing artifacts in vain. You can see that the stone coffin with the human face is from the Western Zhou Dynasty. Can you explain it in detail? Let’s analyze it, maybe we can Figure out a way."

Da Jinya is not as nervous as Fatty at this time. He is different from Fatty. Fatty is not afraid of wolves, insects, tigers, leopards, rice dumplings, zombies, but those things that are not focused on. To put it simply, he is afraid of using his brain. This is a direct threat. Although many things from the Western Zhou Dynasty appeared out of thin air in the ancient tombs of the Tang Dynasty, they were just weird and not very fatal, or it could be said...not immediately fatal, so although the big gold tooth I also feel nervous and afraid, but I can still cope with this mental pressure for the time being.

At this time, Da Jinya listened to my question, thought for a while, and said to me: "Master Hu, you also know that most of the things we mess around in Beijing are from the Ming and Qing dynasties. In the past, the value was high, and they were all privately traded, and they dared not resell them in the antique market. When it comes to Tang and Song Ming wares, in our industry, they are already top-quality, and then go to the ancestors before Tang and Song Objects can basically be said to be national treasures, and if they are bought or sold, they will turn around. I have been in this business for so long, and the oldest ones are only a few small pieces from the Tang Dynasty."

I saw that Da Jin Yajing said something unnecessary, so I asked again: "So you can't be sure that the stone coffin with the human face is from the Western Zhou Dynasty?"

Da Jinya said: "Of course I have never handled such an ancient underworld vessel. Is this kind of Western Zhou stone coffin valuable? The crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason, so it is actually worthless to us. Although I have never spent anything in the Western Zhou Dynasty, sometimes I often read books and visit museums in order to gain knowledge and eyesight. Improve your professional ability. I am also a half-expert on these ancient relics. This stone coffin is from the Western Zhou Dynasty. I will not miss it. I can guarantee this point. It was very popular during the Yin and Shang Dynasties, and many important ritual vessels would be carved with human faces."

I wondered: "Didn't you just say that the stone coffin with the human face is from the Western Zhou Dynasty? If I remember correctly, the Yin Shang Dynasty should be before the Western Zhou Dynasty. Is this stone coffin from the Western Zhou Dynasty or the Yin Shang Dynasty?"

Da Jinya said: "My lord, listen to what I have to say. This kind of decoration flourished in the Yin and Shang Dynasties, and was still used on some important occasions until the Three Kingdoms period. But the times are different, and its characteristics are also different. The difference is that the stone coffin we saw has a characteristic, do you know what it is?"
