Chapter 34: Barbarian Jade Embryo, Musi Bone Flute

There are three grids inside the copper box.

Gu Bai was delighted, knowing that the three grids contained the three sacred weapons of the barbarians of Zhalong Mountain.

After King Xian conquered the Yi people here, in order to completely enslave the Yi people, he sacrificed all three artifacts in the hands of the Yi people to Huo's undead insects.

Inside the first grid is a huge clay pot.

There is also a crystal clear shell on the outside of the clay pot.

Gu Bai knew that this thing was evil, so he didn't rush to take action.

On the other hand, Fatty Wang, who had gone through many difficulties and dangers along the way, finally got here. When he saw something serious, he still couldn't hold back and reached out to grab it.

As a result, when Fatty Wang touched the pottery pot with his hands, the crystal clear jade shell on the outside of the pottery pot broke into pieces.

Shirley Yang gave Fatty Wang a fierce look.

The fat man felt distressed himself, and quickly picked up the jade shells that were as thin as eggshells, "These are good things, we can't waste them."

Hu Bayi smiled bitterly, "The carvings on this thing are very exquisite and the craftsmanship is good, but it breaks when touched. How can you take it out?"

Fatty Wang's face immediately fell.

However, the sadness could not stay with Fatty for five seconds. Fatty Wang immediately cheered up and took out the entire clay pot.

This time Fatty Wang was more careful.

After the clay pot was completely taken out, it was carefully placed on the ground.

Shirley Yang frowned, "The age of this pottery jar is much earlier than that of King Xian. I'm afraid it's something from the late Neolithic period."

Hu Bayi stared at him.

Lao Hu and Fatty have also been hanging out in Panjiayuan for a while, so they naturally know that there are still cultural relics three generations back.

The famous Hongshan jade wares, jade pigs and dragons, as well as various jade congs, jade bis and the like.

However, the prices of those items cannot be estimated, they are all calculated on an annual basis.

It is on the same level as heavy bronze weapons.

If you are unlucky, it will be light even if you sit in jail or go through it.

Fatty Wang was so courageous that he didn't believe it when he heard it was from ancient times, so he picked up a flashlight and shined it into the jar.

"Let me see if there's anything good in this jar."

As a result, after just one look, Fatty Wang took several steps back, lost his balance, and sat down on the ground.

Then he pointed at the jar with a shaking hand, "Old Hu, Chief of Staff Yang, this jar is evil! There's a person inside, a child! And he's looking at me!"

After hearing what Fatty Wang said, Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang's hair stood on end.

Gu Bai walked forward, reached out and picked up the jar.

The jar is indeed older than the one from King Xian, but it is not from the Neolithic period. The system suggests it is from the late Shang Dynasty.

It’s just that the Yi people in southern Yunnan during the late Shang Dynasty did have a cultural level of the late Neolithic period.

There was indeed a person inside the jar.

And it's a fetus!

Jade fetus?

Although Gu Bai had expected that the jade embryo, one of the three sacred artifacts of the barbarians of Zhalong Mountain, must be inside the jar, he still did not expect the jade embryo to be so lifelike.

There is still a pool of clear water in the jar.

The entire jade body is placed in clear water.

The jade embryo's nose, eyes, mouth, ears and other facial features are clearly visible.

Both eyes began to open.

The eyes are completely black.

Under the reflection of the water waves, it really looks like it is staring at someone.

The arms can be seen on the upper body of the jade fetus, but the lower body is a piece of warm white jade.

It looks a bit like a tail, but also a bit like it hasn't fully developed.

There is not a single trace of carving on the entire jade body; it is completely naturally formed.

For a moment, Gu Bai couldn't figure out the origin of this thing.

Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang also came over to take a look at the jade fetus in fear.

Both people said that this thing had an evil nature at first sight.

It would be better to find an opportunity to destroy it directly. Gu Bai did not respond, but looked directly at the second grid.

This time Fatty Wang had a long memory and didn't dare to reach out to get it.

Gu Bai had no choice but to use the hook to hook out the things in the second one.

In the second grid, there is a huge leather bag.

It seems that it should be sewn with the furs of various beasts in the Zhelong Mountain area, such as clouded leopards, lynxes, leopards and other animals.

There is also a cowhide rope on the leather bag to tie it tightly.

Because it was in a sealed copper box, and was later swallowed by Huo's undead bug, it was always in an environment close to vacuum and lacking oxygen.

The skin is actually not rotten.

Gu Bai carefully untied the cowhide rope on top.

There was a rattling sound inside the skin.

Fatty Wang subconsciously ducked back.

Gu Bai directly poured out the contents of the bag.

A pile of bones.

Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang were also shocked.

The bones in the bag look similar to human bones, but are obviously smaller than human bones.

"Could it be a child's bones?" Shirley Yang asked with a frown.

Gu Bai shook his head, "Definitely not, look at the teeth of these skeletons."

Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang approached and found that the teeth of the three skulls were fully developed and severely worn.

If it were a human being, he would not only be an adult, but also quite old.

In addition, the canine teeth on the skull are also particularly developed, obviously beyond the scope of normal human tiger teeth.

"These should be mandrill bones."

Gu Bai didn't say anything more and just pointed it out directly.

In ancient times, the Yi people in the Zhelong Mountain area probably regarded the mandrill as a mountain god.

These three should be the bones of the Yiren Mountain God.

For the Yi people in this area, it should be a very sacred thing.

Presumably, it was something King Xian did to enslave the local barbarians.

Gu Baihe originally wanted to skip over the bones of these "mountain gods".

After all, the mandrill is not the real mountain god.

Although the mandrill is indeed a spiritual mountain spirit and exotic beast, it has been dead for thousands of years and only its bones are left. Gu Bai has no hope that it can still have much spirituality.

Just when Gu Bai was about to look at the next grid, the Eye of Truth swept across something on the ground.

Among a pile of mandrill bones, an inconspicuous object attracted Gu Bai's attention.

Under the observation of the Eye of Truth, this thing exudes a faint green light.

This light cannot be seen by others. It is the Qi that belongs to all things in the world.

People or things that are particularly spiritual will emit more intense Qi.

Gu Bai carefully picked up the little thing and found that it was an exquisite bone flute.

It looks like it was carved from mandrill bones.

There are seven holes on it, and there are whistles carved from turquoise jade at both ends.

[You found the Mandrill Herder's Bone Flute and gained a little energy from it]

Musi bone flute?

Gu Bai discovered that this thing was one of the sacred artifacts of the Yi people in the Zhalong Mountain area in ancient times.

Belongs to the high priest of the tribe.

And he is the high priest who is responsible for communicating with the mountain god.

This flute is used to communicate with the mountain god and the wild beasts in the mountain.

The mandrill bone flute also comes with a small magical power that can soothe beasts and enhance the ability to communicate with them.
