Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 742 Is This Xu Fu? (4000)

"what……"

Seeing this bloody and cruel scene, the witch at the side let out a soft cry unconsciously, then quickly covered her mouth and took a step back subconsciously to hide behind Wu Liang.

Obviously, this was a scene that she hadn't expected at all.

"This?"

Wu Liang frowned, staring at the macaque that didn't respond, and was still moving step by step into the village.

What is the situation?
This macaque can't feel pain at all?

And the loss of one eyeball does not affect the movement. Could it be that he had lost his eyesight before that?

Wu Liang immediately held the copper dagger in his hand, and at the same time took out an "innuendo". The situation in front of him was full of strangeness, which made Wu Liang smell a hint of danger.

However, the macaque didn't seem to notice the existence of him and the witch at all, and it still moved forward so unhurriedly, so its body stiffened and came to the side of a pile of rubble.

The macaque finally stopped, and its body began to shake slightly.

At the same time, its eyeball that had been torn out had been forcibly swallowed by the parrot, and the blood stained the parrot's barbed beak red, making it look even more terrifying.

"..."

Wu Liang and Miko Hu didn't speak, they just held their breath and watched the scene in front of them quietly, waiting for the further development of the matter.

So about 1 minute later.

The macaque, who had been standing in place as if dizzy, swayed slightly, as if all the strength in his body had been taken away in an instant, and his limbs softened and fell heavily on the ground.

And as it fell to the ground.

However, its body turned into a plate of loose sand like a sand sculpture and spread out in an instant. There was no trace of what a macaque should look like, and there was not even any hair left on its body.

And at the same time.

The dozen or so parrots were extremely excited, and immediately fluttered their wings and jumped into the macaque's "body" that was not monkey-shaped, and began to eat, and even a few parrots ran out of a hole and got in. It left a tail that was still shaking outside.

"Wu Taishi, this is probably the origin of the black soil!"

Witch Hu finally realized something, and hurriedly said to Wu Liang.

"Go and have a look."

Wu Liang also had such a guess, and immediately picked up two slightly longer forging tools from not far away, handed one to the witch, and hurried over with the other in his hand.

"Go away!"

Coming closer in this way, Wu Liang waved the tool in his hand to drive away the parrots, and he had already seen the "body" of the macaque.

At this moment, the "body" of the macaque can no longer be described by the word "flesh", because there is no flesh and bone at the scene, only a pile of black soil messed up by the parrots.

A familiar stench hangs in the air.

Unlike the black soil seen in the stone house before, the pile of black soil transformed by the macaque is not so dry, it looks like the sand on the seashore that has just been wet by the tide, so it will not raise black dust .

But this is just the beginning, and the water in it will evaporate after a long time.

only……

Looking at those parrots that were eating this kind of black soil like mad, and combined with what Miko Hu said before, the flying birds rushed to eat the pieces of pottery pots that were suspected to have been filled with black soil, Wu Liang doubted whether such black soil could be left to dry in the wild. when dry.

That is to say, the doors of those stone chambers were closed before, and the parrots could not enter, and the black soil inside has only been preserved to this day...

"Wu Taishi, now I believe more and more what your young lady said. This island is very likely to be the legendary Zuzhou, and it grows a species called "Yangshenzhi" in your country. ' of the magic plant."

The witch said calmly, "It's just that, as your young lady said, 'Yangshenzhi' is not a fairy grass that can make people live forever as in the legend, but an elusive plant."

"Um……"

Wu Liang nodded slightly.

According to Zhen Mi, this macaque is very likely to be a long-dead macaque, but the birds on this island, such as those parrots, cover their faces with "Yang Shenzhi" to revive it, in order to Under the influence of "Yangshenzhi", it finally turns into this kind of black soil that makes them flock to it?
After all, animals are much simpler than humans.

The motives of many animals' behaviors are not complicated. Everything they do is for better survival. This is an instinct. Driven by this instinct, there is a saying of "flying birds to raise Shenzhi to save people" legend.

They are not saving people at all, but creating more rare things for themselves?

Wait!
Thinking of this, Wu Liang once again looked at the row of things that looked like prison cells, and suddenly came up with a terrible speculation:

Is it possible that this is not a quarry at all, the quarry is just an appearance, and its essence is a "black soil factory"?
That is to say, someone arrived here a long time ago and discovered "Yangshenzhi", and also discovered these strange black soils, and learned the whole process of black soil formation through observation.

Besides making birds flock to this kind of black soil, it actually has some benefits to humans that Wu Liang doesn't know about for the time being.

So someone led a group of people here to build this stockade, but those stone rooms in the stockade are not dormitories for people to live in, but prison cells for detaining and making this kind of black soil?

The whole process is actually not difficult to implement.

You only need to kill the person first, and then use the "Yangshenzhi" to revive them and put them in the stone chamber, so as to prevent the birds from being attacked during the process of making the black soil, and just wait quietly for the black soil to be formed...

Similar things happen in any era, in any region... In short, as long as there are people, such things happen all the time.

Isn't there a real history of the duchess using the blood of her virgins to keep her youthful in Western history?

Even in the more civilized later generations, there are still a group of people who eat human blood steamed buns every day. They are elegant in suits and shoes, and never kill with their own hands. In the eyes of those people, there is no difference between ordinary people and the human sacrifices of the Japanese country today, it is just their "demographic dividend".

When thinking so.

Wu Liang took out another empty bottle and filled some of this extremely fresh black soil, plugged it up, and then stopped being obsessed with it, turned around and said to the witch: "It's almost time, hurry up and go into the mine to check, If there really is a 'Yang Shen Mushroom' here, it should probably grow in this mine."

"Why did Wu Taishi make such a judgment?"

The witch hurriedly followed and asked in confusion.

"Historical records say that 'Yangshenzhi' was born in Qiongtian, and this Jade Mountain is the most suitable Qiongtian."

Wu Liang said seriously.

……

After all, what happened to the macaque just now had some influence on Wu Liang and the witch.

They are more in awe of this place, the cultivation of Shenzhi, and the black soil, so they are more cautious when entering the mine, and they dare not relax at every step.

The temperature in the mine is lower than in the stone house.

But it was still within the range that Wu Liang and Miko Hu could bear, and it didn't cause them too much trouble.

Not long after entering, Wu Liang discovered a new detail.

This hole may also be his preconception as a manually dug mine.

Because apart from the relatively flat ground, he did not find too many traces of artificial forging on the rock wall of this cave, which means that this cave may have existed before someone arrived here, even if people entered this cave later. The hole is just to trim the ground for the convenience of movement.

Wu Liang immediately thought of the ghost cave he had passed through before.

That ghost hole was obviously not dug by hand, but it had been there since people discovered it. Moreover, with the technology of the Han Dynasty and before the Han Dynasty, it was absolutely impossible to forge such a cave that was several meters long on the seabed. A bottomless pit ten miles away is simply a fantasy.

Walk deeper and deeper.

Wu Liang became more and more sure of his judgment.

Because the deeper you go, the more jade stones are exposed on the walls and top rocks of the cave, and the volume becomes larger, and there are no traces of artificial peeling around these jade stones, which are completely natural.

Under the light of the "Suihou Pearl", these jade stones appear greener and more transparent. The deeper you go, the more you feel like you are always walking in a crystal palace.

The only downside is that.

There were a lot of bird droppings on the ground under my feet, and some of these bird droppings were relatively fresh, indicating that birds have often entered this cave recently, perhaps those parrots.

But one thing is for sure.

Birds did not build their nests in this stone cave, let alone regard it as a nest, otherwise, after many years, it would not be such a sparse bird feces. Gas mask Wu Liang also has no feelings for him.

And these fresh bird droppings gave Wu Liang a reassurance.

Since birds have often entered the cave recently, it is enough to show that the air quality in the cave is not bad, so there is no need to worry about this aspect.

In this way, he walked about a distance of nearly [-] meters along the cave.

"Wu Taishi be careful, there's something there!"

The witch Hu suddenly stopped and pulled Wu Liang, pointing to a place more than ten meters ahead and said.

"I saw it, it seems to be another set of clothes."

Wu Liang said intently, and then groped forward a few steps to try to see more clearly.

The witch Huze followed him closely, and stretched her neck to stare at the mass spread on the ground. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw it more clearly, and said, "Wu Taishi still has good eyesight. Clothes, but this set of clothes seems to be different from the ones we have seen in the stone house before."

The two of them then came to the set of clothes spread out on the ground together. It was indeed different from the ones seen in those stone houses before. There was no black soil in this set of clothes, and it did not maintain the posture of the human body, but Randomly spread on the ground.

In addition, the state of preservation of this set of clothes is not good. Some places have been torn, and some places have some irregular holes.

But it's even more different.

"I'm afraid these are not Qin Chao's clothes."

Wu Liang turned this set of clothes over to check the pattern, and quickly came to such a conclusion.

"Then this is?"

The witch looked surprised.

"It should be the 'short brown' of the Han Dynasty. Although it looks somewhat similar to the short shirts worn by ordinary people in the Qin Dynasty, it can still be distinguished through some details."

Wu Liang patiently explained.

He can only see the difference between the Qin Dynasty and the Han Dynasty. As for whether it is the Western Han Dynasty or the Eastern Han Dynasty, it is hard to say, because during this period of time, although there have been some changes in the details of the nobles' costumes after the changes, the "short and short" of the common people "Brown" has basically remained unchanged. After all, for the vast majority of people, it is already very difficult to dress warmly and eat well. How can they have the leisure to take care of whether they look good or not, and whether they are fashionable or not.

"So that means, the owner of this set of clothes is not the same as the owners of the clothes we saw before?"

The maiden shouted and analyzed.

"Ah."

Wu Liang nodded, then pointed to a cloth bag with a few pieces of jade on the set of clothes, and some jade stones of different sizes that fell next to him and said, "The purpose of the two is different, and the latter probably should be I entered this secret place by mistake and saw such a strange jade here, so I came up with the idea of ​​taking it back to make a fortune, but unfortunately I don’t know what happened and ended up staying here.”

As for the purpose of the former, Wu Liang did not make it clear, because he cannot be completely sure now.

The only thing he can be sure of now is that the former should not be that interested in this kind of jade, otherwise, a large amount of jade appeared on the rock wall in the cave very early, so why would they stop mining it?

"Then it was resurrected by Yangshenzhi, and finally turned into black soil and eaten by those parrots, leaving only this messy set of clothes?"

The witch followed Wu Liang's words and made up her mind.

"I guess it should be so..."

Wu Liang nodded slightly, and wanted to say something, but heard a "click", something suddenly fell from the clothes, and then Wu Liang and the witch were stunned.

"?!"

It was also a piece of jade with the same texture.

It's just that this piece of jade is crescent-shaped, about an inch long, and there is a small round hole drilled at one end of the jade, and a relatively strong hemp rope is worn inside...

Qiong Gouyu? !

The two looked at each other.

Wu Liang even took out the Qiong Gouyu he had snatched from the witch Hu before for comparison.

This accidentally discovered Qionggouyu is slightly larger than the one that the witch called, and it looks more transparent...

"Miss Hu, if I remember correctly, you once said that the Qionggouyu that Xu Fu carried with him was a little bigger than the Qionggouyu that stayed in Wa Kingdom?"

Wu Liang asked subconsciously.

"Could it be that the owner of this set of clothes is..."

The witch's expression was extremely complicated, and she spoke with difficulty, "... Qin Zhixu Jun? Impossible? Absolutely impossible?"
