433. Zombie Hole
Meihui was amazed again and again: "Wow, I didn't expect that such a rope has so many details. It seems so... so weird for you to say it! It's not that evil, is it?"
I said, "You don't believe it? If you don't believe it, why don't you try to tear it off?"
She shook her head repeatedly: "Forget it, I'd rather believe it or not. After we were poisoned by Datura grass last time, I'm scared of the zombies I saw in my hallucinations."
I sighed and said, "No matter what happened to the zombies, the owner of this tomb put so many zombies guarding the tomb must be to prevent outsiders from robbing the tomb. It is absolutely impossible to trap the hands and feet of the zombies with evil spirits.
It seems that an expert has entered the tomb here. These are all his handiwork, and most of the treasures inside have been taken over by this expert."
"Brother, who is buried in this cave? What kind of dignitary can use an eighth-grade military general as a tombkeeper? Is it a prince? A prime minister?" Meihui asked.
I said it shouldn't be like that. The tombs of princes and prime ministers of the Qing Dynasty usually don't have burials. There may be a military general here, and the lowest official rank must be the second-grade guard commander, or the governor of a certain banner.
Soldiers and the like. In the early Qing Dynasty, the division of power between civil and military officials was very clear. How many eighth-grade military generals would be willing to be buried with a civilian official? At that time, it was a big taboo for civil and military ministers to collude with each other.
At this time, Lanzi, who had never dared to open her eyes, couldn't bear it anymore and cried out: "Shuang brothers, please stop talking. Can we go back or move forward? Are you going to let me live?"
Just watch it, don't say anything!"
I continued walking forward with the three of them, and later discovered that there were more than just these two tomb-guarding zombies in the cave. There were two of them every 20 meters or so. Their clothes and hats were roughly the same size, and the highest official rank was from the seventh rank.
, the lowest one is also the ninth grade. Their postures are exactly the same, standing on the left and right sides with their backs to us. I don’t know how long they have maintained this posture in this ancient tomb. At the beginning, I was a little scared, seeing so much
Not so nervous anymore.
But having said that, the tomb passage is only three meters wide, with a black-robed zombie standing on each side. We walked through them. You can imagine our mood at the time. I didn’t pass two such zombie tombkeepers.
I would look back several times unconsciously, fearing that the two guys would suddenly come to life and jump around like an illusion created by datura grass, stretching out their slender fingers to poke at me.
As I walked, I was thinking about a question. These zombies have been in this tomb passage for hundreds of years at least. How can they be stiff but not rotten? Is it possible that every zombie is an ice ghost? I couldn't help but touch it with my hands.
I discovered that the corpses in their official uniforms were not as hard as I imagined, which meant that they could not be the legendary ice ghosts. Since they were not ice ghosts, how could they not have decayed for hundreds of years?
This is still secondary. The more important question is whose tomb is being guarded by so many low-level military attachés? The expert in front of us could burn these zombies, but why did he only use ink lines?
The hands and feet that trapped the zombies. If I hadn't known about the particularity of this ink line, I think if Mei Hui touched it lightly with her hand, the ink line made of four hairs would have turned into dust, and the consequences would have been unimaginable.
I finally understood that the expert who came in before us must have failed. He did some tricks on these zombies to prevent future generations from coming in. If someone doesn't know the reason, he will surely make the ink lines appear when he touches the zombies' hands and feet.
