Chapter 331 Dark History

"I don't know, I don't know." The lazy man shook his head again and again.

He didn't dare to meet my gaze, but explained in a veiled way: "But I seem to have heard of Cao Sizhi's name! I know that he is one of the best masters in the tomb robbery world, and I don't know anything else. "

Although I didn't admit it, I caught the lazy man's series of reactions.

I smiled coldly, and did not expose the lazy man on the spot, but explained to Sister Long-legged Yu: "As the lazy man said, Cao Sizhi's name is well-known in this industry. It is said that he went to fight Hundreds of times, never missed a single shot, strong martial arts, elusive, is the only surviving Faqiu Zhonglang general. We are here this time to find the descendant of Cao Sizhi—the fourth girl!"

"Does he have descendants?" Long-legged Yujie heard my words, a little confused: "When I was practicing in HLJ, my mother also mentioned Cao Sizhi to me, but she never said that Cao Sizhi had married. "

I was surprised and asked: "What, Cao Sizhi didn't marry?"

"Yeah." Sister Long-legged Yu nodded, then frowned and said, "But it's hard to talk about it. After all, Cao Sizhi has a weird personality and vicious methods. I don't know how many people he has offended! He often avoids his enemies and puts himself It is normal for wives and children to hide.”

I nodded, if you are in the business of tomb robbers, if you are not careful, you will be killed.Unless someone like Sister Long-legged Yu has the backing of a huge family, it will be difficult to protect herself.

As for the fact that our family can be passed down to my generation, it is thanks to my grandfather who spent most of his time buying and selling antiques, and did not really participate in a few inversions.

"By the way, you have the fourth girl on the left and the fourth girl on the right. Are these four girls male or female?" Long-legged Yujie looked at me quietly and said.

I was stunned for a moment, and seeing the jealousy in the long-legged sister Yu's eyes, I knew why she asked such a question.

Just as he was about to explain, the fat man walked over with Ye Mingzhu in his arms and said, "Nonsense, of course it's a woman..."

"Don't listen to this fat man's nonsense." I glared at the fat man and said, "The fourth girl we are looking for is a taciturn young man who likes to wear white clothes and a baseball cap. We are looking for him to find out One thing! I didn't expect to see him all the way, and he was almost killed by those female ghosts."

"That's right, brother lazy man, do you fucking know what that female ghost is? Why is it so powerful?" The fat man immediately asked his doubts when he heard me mention the female ghost.

"This female ghost is not simple. She is neither human nor ghost nor zombie. It is the first time she has appeared in Cao Cao's tomb in the past 5000 years." The lazy man was silent for a moment and said, "It is thanks to us that we can escape the clutches of these female ghosts." The fourth girl you mentioned."

"It's not a human, it's not a ghost, it's not a zombie. It's so clear, do you know the origin of this thing?" The fat man looked at the lazy man in surprise.

"I know a little bit. When Miss Four asked me to wait in the palace just now, I saw many incredible secrets on the murals of the palace! The murals called these female ghosts: drowned women." The lazy man whispered.

"Drowned woman?" I was slightly taken aback: "According to the literal interpretation, it is a drowned woman?"

I suddenly remembered that when those women were attacking me just now, the white robes on their bodies were indeed wet, and the water dripped down every time they climbed a certain distance, as if they had been soaked in a water tank.

Is there any significance here?
The lazy man nodded and said, "That's right, drowned women are a group of drowned women. According to Japanese folklore, drowned women have the greatest resentment. Even an onmyoji can't subdue it. It means female ghost."

"There are so many drowned women, how many women must be drowned..." I was chilled.

Unexpectedly, the fat man laughed loudly: "Little Ding Dong, don't forget where we are standing now, Tongque Terrace! What is Tongque Terrace? It is the place where Cao Cao collected all the beauties from all over the world during the Three Kingdoms period. I see, these Most of the drowned girls are little beauties raised by Cao Cao back then."

"It's possible that the golden house can hide the beauty. After all, heroes have loved beautiful women since ancient times, but why Cao Cao turned his women into a group of monsters with neither humans nor ghosts is a bit confusing." I shook my head puzzled Ask the lazy man: "Brother lazy man, where did you find the mural, can you take me to see it?"

"No problem, follow me." The lazy man stood up and turned on the flashlight.

At the same time, I quickly told Fatty, Wang Yuanchao, and Sister Long-legged Yu to stop resting, pack up my things and set off.The lazy man said that the place where the murals were painted was not far away, it was at the innermost part of the main hall, behind the row of statues of maids holding ever-burning lamps.

I threw two cold smokers around, and turned on the high-power emergency light. As the whole light shone through, everything in front of us suddenly appeared in front of our eyes.

On the towering walls, the murals we saw before appeared again, and this time the murals seemed to follow the previous one.

But I don't know if it's my illusion, I always feel that the murals here have a dark style!

The craftsman seems to deliberately draw the figures to be very hideous and abstract, all of them pretending to be devils.

"Damn it! Our patriarch finally played the card according to the routine." The fat man wrapped up the Ye Mingzhu he had collected and stuffed it into his pocket, then put on a pair of gloves, and began to stroke the huge mural in front of him.

"Ding Dong, take a quick look too. The fat man has a hunch that there is a huge treasure hidden in this mural! It was a big mouse and a big spider before. It almost scared the fat man to death. He worked so hard to even get one There are no decent treasures, but fortunately, when we came to this glittering golden palace, we turned serfs and sang..."

I saw the fat man spitting all over his mouth excitedly, so I ignored him and asked the lazy man where is the secret of drowning girls?

The lazy man told me, just follow the mural and look down.

My long-legged sister and I walked under the mural with a flashlight, and I found that it seemed to be a magnificent narrative mural, which could be called epic!Like the previous murals, it is also intended to show the life of Cao Cao's gold and iron horse.

However, the previous murals all recorded Cao Cao's great achievements.

But the murals here record Cao Cao's disgraceful side!
These despicable and shameless things happened one after another, from youth to adulthood, then to middle age, until death, which almost exposed Cao Cao's dark human nature nakedly in front of us.

For example, in the first painting, a chubby child is hiding outside the small farmyard and peeping at something. He shows a smirk and looks very wretched.

Introduction to the Chinese text of the mural: When Cao Cao was a child, he was infected with lust. He once forcibly blocked the sedan chair on the street, and even took off the red hijab of the bride, commenting on it.

Seeing that the bride was as beautiful as a flower, Cao Cao actually sneaked into her house in the dark and insulted the bride. The scene was unsightly.

There is also a series of heart-wrenching confessions by Cao Cao. I simply translated it, which probably means something like this: "When people make mistakes when they are young, I, Cao Cao, was born in a rich family, so it is inevitable that I will be infected with dandies. The son’s bad habits harmed the farmer’s family. But since this incident, I have been heartbroken, and I have deeply realized the harm of the dude, and I am determined to be a good official to make up for my mistakes.”

I couldn't help but smile, this Cao Cao is still a second-generation official with a conscience.

In the second mural, a kind old man is calling his servants to kill pigs and sheep, and cook a big meal for the unkempt Cao Cao in the house, but Cao Cao draws his sword and rushes at his wife...

The following text introduces: This old man is called Lu Boshe, who is a friend of Cao Cao. After Cao Cao failed to assassinate Dong Zhuo, he was wanted by the whole country and fled to Lu Boshe's home in a hurry. Lu Boshe happily cooked for Cao Cao.Cao Cao thought that Lu Boshe would report to the officials to arrest him, so he drew his sword and killed Lu Boshe's family.

I have also heard about this incident. I thought it was just unofficial history, but I didn't expect it to be true.

There is also Cao Cao’s confession later, Cao Cao explained it this way: “I was born suspicious and sick. That day I thought that Lu Boshe wanted to report to the officials to arrest me for a reward, so I killed his whole family without stopping. I regret it endlessly. But rather teach me to betray the world, don’t ask the world to betray me, Lu Boshe’s death is worthwhile, I will let Lu Boshe’s spirit in heaven see that I will use my hands to restore peace to the world!”

By the third mural, Cao Cao has become the prime minister of the Han Dynasty.But when he saw him wearing a long robe, with a sharp sword hanging from his waist, standing beside the emperor, looking arrogantly at the courtiers who were kneeling at his feet, his arrogance soared to the sky.

The mural introduced that Cao Cao coerced the emperor to command the princes, occupy the court and the opposition, and despised the emperor and ministers. All those who opposed him would be killed!Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty wrote a blood letter in grief, asking the brave ministers to help kill the national traitor Cao Cao.

I'm curious about how Cao Cao would evaluate himself on this matter?So he quickly translated the text: "The emperor is afraid of me, the ministers are afraid of me, and the whole world is afraid of me. They say that I, Cao Cao, are a traitor and a national thief. They all want to kill me. But why don't they think about it? What would the world be like without me, Cao Cao, in charge? How many people would be called emperors, and how many people would be called kings! If the emperor is wise and powerful, do I need to take charge of the government? If the Han Dynasty is flourishing, do I need to lead troops to crusade everywhere? ? I, Cao Cao, have worked so hard to make the world no longer have wars and the common people live a better life? Why don’t you understand me? I must realize my ambitions in my lifetime, and all those who stand in my way must die !"

After listening to my translation, the fat man rolled his eyes for a while: "Grandma, this Cao Cao is not a fuel-efficient lamp! Stealing chickens and dogs, sleeping with a wife, he has done everything, and after he became the prime minister, he killed people like hemp. No matter how great he is Every hero has his dark side."

Although what the fat man said was vulgar, it was not unreasonable.

In fact, this kind of thing is not just Cao Cao, many heroes in the past dynasties have done it.However, Cao Cao is the only one who dares to record all the mistakes of his life on the murals for future generations to comment on.

This kind of mind alone can be regarded as open and aboveboard.
