The rope continued to slide down. When it was 2 meters away from the bottom, I quickly jammed the pulley. This was a safe distance. To be honest, I didn't know what to do. I lowered my head and slightly adjusted the brightness of the headlight.

The situation below can be seen clearly.

There is a very shallow mark on the lower edge of the cauldron. The patina of this mark is much heavier than that of the outer wall. It is estimated that when the body of King Khan was buried, the cauldron was also used by mourners to initiate sacrificial rituals and cook something.

What on earth had been cooked? Human sacrifice? I thought that the benevolent monarch Wobasi would not be so cruel, but when he lowered his head and took a look, the white objects at the bottom of the cauldron were indeed several human skulls.

.

I looked carefully again and found no other dangers. Then I felt relieved, put down all the safety locks, and entered the bottom of the cauldron. There was nothing else at the bottom except six or seven human bones and skulls.

, it seems that this ceremony when the Khan was buried was undoubtedly a human sacrifice. Human sacrifice is also common in ancient tombs, but this is the first time it appears in Mongolian tombs. If it was just to kill some serious prisoners or rebellious ministers, it would be okay.

There is nothing incomprehensible. But what is strange is that there are only their skulls in this cauldron, and no other bones of the corpses have been found. Could it be that they were beheaded and thrown in for cooking? Thinking about it, it makes you feel that this kind of perverted criminal law in ancient times

It makes people shudder.

I leaned over to pick it up and took a look, and I found something suspicious. The skull was slightly larger than an ordinary head. And as I just guessed, if these were the heads of prisoners who had been beheaded, at least there should be some left on the neck.

There are knife marks, and the human head is connected to the vertebrae. Although the awl is softer than ordinary bones, it is still a bone. There will definitely be some marks when it is cut with a knife. Moreover, not only does this skull have no trace of being chopped with a knife, it does not even have a cone bone.

In other words, it is just a skull. Before death, this thing probably only lived in this form.

"Oops, have you discovered anything new?" Meihui shouted.

I said: "Hundreds of years ago, a few human heads were cooked here, but this skull is a bit strange. Let's take it back and study it."

Friends who have studied medicine all know that there is a large bone in the back part of the human skull called the parietal bone, and the front part of the human skull is called the frontal bone. When I first removed this skull, I thought it was strange, but now I finally understand where the strange thing is.

Well, it turns out that the skull in my hand does not have a parietal bone, and the frontal bone is very flat. If it were restored, then this human head must have a very flat forehead and no curves. This person would be more or less bumpy.

Unknowingly, I was restoring the appearance of the skull in life, and I couldn't help but shudder. My hands shook, and I couldn't hold it firmly. The skull fell to the ground, split in two, and a small sphere rolled out from the middle of the skull. The small sphere rolled slightly.

It was glowing and rolling around under my feet, as if it had life and soul.

"Nah..." I yelled in fright, swished the safety lock, pulled the Kasuo, and climbed up.

When I climbed to the top of the cauldron, I unconsciously looked back at the skull. It didn't matter at first glance. I was already in shock just now. And when I turned around to look at this scene, I actually looked deep into the sky.

No matter where it was, I felt so cold that I jumped down. Just now I looked back and saw in the eyes of the skull, bunches of dark red looming out of the two black holes.
