Ancient Sword II: The Tracking of the Fierce Mountain

Chapter 88: Terracotta Figures

The brown stone walls moved forward along with countless undulating stone peaks, and the embankment by the river gradually became narrower, but the sound of the water remained the same, and the sound of the waves continued.And in front of everyone, a stone room finally appeared.

The surrounding area of ​​the stone chamber is flat, with the Milky Way on one side and the distant stone wall on the other.The stone chamber looks very spacious, but it is no more than three meters high, and the stone gate is even more pitifully small, allowing only one person to pass through.

There are no decorative patterns along the rough door, and there is even only a decayed half wooden door crumbling in front of the door.

The entire stone chamber in front of me presents a rough and crude feeling, which is very abrupt in this magnificent mausoleum.

But there was only one way forward, and Yinhe and the others couldn't get through it—no one wanted to swim in the poisonous mercury—so the group could only continue walking forward.

Entering the room, there is an unexpected scene in front of you.

The height of the stone chamber is not high, but the space is huge. Looking along the path in the middle, the exit in the distance turns into a small spot of light.And the things in the room are what everyone cares about the most.

Although this stone room is large, it is extremely crowded inside. Except for the road in the middle, it can be said that it is almost overcrowded: every standing figure, or mighty, or gentle, or serious, or laughing, is actually one after the other beyond sight. Terracotta figurines!

They are indeed terracotta figurines for burial, with different clothes, different faces, different expressions, and different heights. Every terracotta figurine is so vivid. living.

"Terracotta warriors?" Xie Yi murmured, and immediately rejected his gaze, "No, it's not right."

If we talk about terracotta warriors and horses, we naturally think of the terracotta warriors and horses of Qin Shihuang, but the terracotta warriors here are different. In terms of the expression and appearance of each terracotta warrior, the terracotta warriors here may be comparable to the terracotta warriors of Qin Shihuang.But the pottery figurines here, in addition to soldiers and servants, there are also pottery figurines such as dancers, dancers, servants and servants who are definitely not included in the terracotta warriors.

Along the path, the crowd dispersed, and everyone was surprised and speechless.It is said that seeing the terracotta warriors and horses of Qin Shihuang will be shocked, and the ones here are no different.

The terracotta figurines are arranged neatly one by one, and the ones at the front are servants dressed in simple clothes, some of them are even holding toilet utensils, as if they are preparing for their master's washing.After the servants and servants, there are dance and music servants, both men and women, who sing or dance in a very beautiful manner.Afterwards came the soldiers and servants with weapons in their hands. They were extraordinary in martial arts, but it was a pity that although they maintained their solemn posture, the weapons in their hands were missing, and it was unknown whether they were decayed or not equipped at the beginning.

Behind the soldiers are officials and servants, all of them have wide robes and long sleeves, and they all hold wats in their hands, with a majestic appearance.

"Looking at the official uniform worn by this official, it seems to be the official uniform of the early Western Han Dynasty?" Xie Yi looked at Shen Ye who had been with him all the time, "The Han Dynasty still maintained the system of burial with pottery figurines, and now it seems that this may not be the mausoleum of the Qin Dynasty .”

As for the previous idea of ​​Qin Huang's tomb, it is naturally self-defeating.

Shen Ye said lightly: "It is indeed not the pottery figurines of the Qin Dynasty."

Xie Yi smiled and said, "So sure?"

Shen Ye raised the corners of his lips slightly: "You can see it from the front."

The two walked forward again, and after the officials were the emperor's ceremonial servants, each of the terracotta figurines held a silk banner or a parade in their hands, and their movements were unified, but their manners were extraordinary.

"So that's the case, I was negligent." Xie Yi smiled when he saw the guard of honor, "The guard of honor began in the Han Dynasty, and it is indeed not a thing of the Qin Dynasty."

Shen Ye smiled and did not speak.

It's just that when they continued to walk forward, the expected orderly terracotta figurines suddenly changed.Guards of honor always accompany the emperor when he travels, because it is a tomb, the emperor's coffin may not be placed here, but what Shen Ye and Xie Yi did not expect is that after this neat guard of honor, there are all kinds of pottery figurines lined up in a mess. behind.

If there were no pottery figurines after the ceremonial servants, maybe the two of them would be able to accept some of them, but now it seems that the solemn soldier servants, lively dancer servants, and calm official servants they saw before were crowded together in an orderly manner. rear.The terracotta figurines, which were originally spaced in an orderly manner, had no distinction between men and women, and regardless of their positions. They were either too large, or crowded so that there was almost no gap.

How is this going?Xie Yi and Shen Ye looked at each other, and they both saw doubt in each other's eyes.

The front is so orderly, why the rear seems to be placed randomly?No, it's more like time is running out, and the craftsmen didn't have time to continue tidying up, so they threw the terracotta figurines here.

Sure enough, under some pottery figurines, the two saw broken pottery figurines, but further forward, the fallen pottery figurines became strange.

The distorted limbs, ferocious expressions, and the expressions of those terracotta figurines are all filled with joy and pain, and some even despair.

Is this a terracotta figurine for funerary use?

How are such terracotta figurines made?

Would such irreverent terracotta figures be allowed in mausoleums?

Doubts flashed through Xie Yi's mind one by one, but when the terracotta figurines on both sides changed from twisting their limbs to climbing forward, Xie Yi finally realized it.

It can be said that at the same time, Xie Yi and Shen Ye yelled at the Liu family behind them: "Stay away from those pottery figurines!"

The Liu family, who were immersed in admiring the rare masterpieces, were taken aback, but when they saw that this was a reminder from Shen Ye and Xie Yi, they immediately moved away from the pottery figurines that they were obsessed with just a moment ago.

Liu He was also taken aback. He had never seen such a serious expression on Shen Ye's face. When he stepped forward, he couldn't help worrying, "Mr. Shen, what's wrong?" Are there any problems with those pottery figurines?Before the question could be uttered, Liu He saw clearly the terracotta figurines beside Shen Ye and the two of them, and his expression became serious in an instant.

The terracotta figurines climbing forward, with vivid and painful expressions, seem to be living people running for their lives!If it is a living person, it can naturally be distorted to a degree that pottery figurines cannot!

"Hurry up and get away from these ghost things!" Liu He's heart also raised, especially when he saw Liu Ming was still groping around there, his face turned livid. "Liu Ming, do you want to die?! Let go!"

Liu He's serious appearance shocked the Liu family, including Liu Ming, who has always been obsessed with Terracotta Warriors: "Master?"

The Liu family came over one by one, and their faces turned pale after seeing the terracotta figurines lying on the ground.

"This... this is..." Liu Donghua screamed, "What the hell is this!" Because his mood has not slowed down, Liu Donghua is the most peaceful among the group of people, and even the pottery figurines have a quick glance. Actions.But at this moment, the ferocious terracotta figurines once again evoke the memory of fear in Liu Donghua's heart.

Liu He scolded: "Shut up!" Everyone was already uneasy, but Liu Donghua made things worse!

Turning to the people with pale faces, Liu He tried to calm down and said, "Did you find anything just now?"

Everyone just shook their heads.Facing the lifelike and exquisite pottery figurines, they only cared about admiring them, so how could they find anything else.

Everyone shook their heads when they asked, but Liu He could only turn to Shen Ye and Xie Yi: "What about you?" If it wasn't for the two people's reminders, he wouldn't be able to find the problem for a while.But along the way, apart from the terracotta figurines, there is really nothing else here.

Shen Ye remained silent, while Xie Yi shook his head.They also just discovered that these pottery figurines are different, and the others are probably not much different from the Liu family.

Liu He gritted his teeth, looking at the prostrating terracotta figurines, he only felt that this would be their fate.

If they were really terracotta figurines made of living people, or if they turned into ghosts while running away, what about them?Will this happen too?

Liu Ming stood beside Liu He tremblingly, unable to say anything.He had just been in close contact with these terracotta figurines, and he felt only joy in his heart, but now the facts told him that they were probably once living people. How could he accept such a huge contrast!

Liu Ming was filled with apprehension, and looked at the terracotta figurines on both sides with fear.It can't really be a living person, can it?Probably not, it just looks like it, the young master is not sure yet... Huh?

Within sight, near the door, Liu Ming found a completely different pottery figurine.The upper body of the terracotta figurine is the costume of an ancient servant, while the lower body is climbing pants that would never have appeared in that era!

Liu Ming's pupils shrank, yes, they were hiking pants!Although it has become Tao, it is true... Liu Ming couldn't help but shift his gaze to the face of the pottery figurine, and saw his mouth tightly pursed, his brows tightly wrinkled, and his face full of pain.And his eyes, whether it was not done well at the beginning or something else, are actually black, like black pearls inlaid in the eye sockets.

Those were really a pair of pure black eyes without any impurities. Under Liu Ming's gaze, they moved slowly and slowly.

A circle of white lines appeared around the eyeballs, gradually getting bigger, as if in slow motion, slowly squeezing the black to one side of the eye sockets.Liu Ming didn't know whether he should praise himself for his courage, but he still kept staring at him.

When the remaining half circle of black finally stopped moving and pointed straight in Liu Ming's direction, Liu Ming finally came to his senses - the black was the pupils of the terracotta figurine, and the white was the whites of the eyes.

He, is he looking at himself?
