Professor Zhang murmured: "Isn't my teacher really an underground worker?"
Before, he was a little unconvinced and joking.
But now I see Shen Xiaoxiao is so calm.
Even when he saw Lin, his eyes were shining, as if he had seen something interesting.
Is this psychological quality something a weak and weak girl can possess? !
The cliffs are forged by going to the tomb!
Archaeological site.
Professor Lin and others were aroused by Shen Xiaoxiao's words. ,
I really want to know what these guys are doing now.
However, judging from the sound, he must be chewing the red fruits grown on the corpse forest.
However, when everyone put on the infrared glasses, what they saw shattered their views!
In the infrared field of view, these red leopards are eating the corpses of dead leopards underground!
Although there are not many details, it seems more terrifying through everyone's imagination.
It’s like an abstract hell ukiyo-e!
Professor Lin's stomach kept shrinking, as if a whole piece of heavy ice had been stuffed into it!
It’s so uncomfortable!
Cannibalism!
These beasts are actually cannibalizing themselves!
They originally thought that these beasts were eating red fruits, but they didn't expect that they would not let go of the corpses of the same kind.
No wonder they didn't encounter Lin's body when they came in.
Professor Lin's throat was a little rough: "These dogs rely on eating their own kind, so they can get enough nutrients?"
The audience was shocked when they heard Professor Lin's words:
[Are these men so cruel? Not even letting the category go? 】
[Where are these pitiful little cuties I mentioned earlier? Come out quickly, sacrifice your life and feed them! 】
【Isn’t it too disgusting? Cannibalism is rare in nature, but these beasts actually did such a thing! 】
[However, why were these people captured by the First Emperor and used as fertilizer? 】
[I think this First Emperor is not a good person! 】
[Maybe it’s because he was too cruel that he didn’t leave his name in the history books? 】
[Upstairs, only mediocre people will not leave their names, but tyrants will also leave a mark in the history books! 】
…
Shen Xiaoxiao shook his head: "These beasts are not eating the corpses of their own kind, but eating the green jade in their bodies!"
"Cang Yu?" Professor Zhang and others all stared at Shen Xiaoxiao.
I am very curious, what is this strange term?
Shen Xiaoxiao explained: "Ten miles to the east is called Corpse Mountain. There are many beryls and many jings. The corpse water comes out of Yan and flows south into Luoshui. There are many beautiful jade in it."
"This is what is recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas."
"Ten miles east of Mount Li, we reach the realm of Corpse Mountain, where corpses pile up like mountains and rivers of blood flow, just like the underworld of hell."
"The corpse mountain has been around for a long time. The corpses on the surface have rotted and turned into corpse water, forming a circular river of corpse water. The corpses close to the ground began to take root and sprout after absorbing enough corpse water, and grew into a forest of corpses."
"Although these corpse trees contain human organs and flesh and blood, due to their incompleteness, they have turned into a kind of plant that relies on absorbing the essence of the sun and moon to grow."
"There is only one ferocious beast from ancient times on the corpse mountain. It looks like a giant deer with an ox tail, and its name is Jing."
"It is said that Qi has two stomachs on the left and right. The left one is tangible and feeds on corpses. The right one is invisible and has a halo and feeds on corpse spirits. One yin and one yang, one real and one empty. Qi must try to feed them at the same time. Fill your stomachs so you don’t starve to death.”
"Because of long-term consumption of red fruits and drinking corpse water, a large amount of corpse poison accumulated in Qi's body."
"And only a mineral found on the corpse mountain can resolve this poison, and that's beryl."
"Beryl will grow on the intestinal wall after being eaten into the stomach. Every beast must eat at least one beryl every year, otherwise it will die of self-poisoning. So beryl has become a hot commodity on the mountain of corpses!"
"In order to detoxify, these beasts will eat the green jade in the bellies of the same kind!"
Professor Lin was stunned: "Where did you hear this?"
"Cang Yu? I haven't seen any of these things here either!"
Professor Lin was confused. He had seen the whole place under the illumination of searchlights before.
Nothing but corpses, just corpses.
There is no cangyu at all!
In the conference room, all the experts stared at Shen Xiaoxiao blankly.
They know the book "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", but this book is missing.
Could it be that Shen Xiaoxiao knows the complete "Shan Hai Jing"?
However, these things sound too mysterious, right?
Just to detoxify, just eat the same kind of stones"?
Shen Xiaoxiao said lightly:
"Of course there is no green jade here. These are all myths and stories, and most of them are false!"
"However, these beasts will condense a kind of stone on their bodies, which can offset toxins and can be used to make elixirs. That's why the First Emperor raised so many beasts here!"
Professor Lin has solved a lot of puzzles in his mind, but there is still one biggest puzzle. Who are these people wearing strange clothes?
Shen Xiaoxiao took one look at these people's clothes and immediately guessed their identities, and said with certainty:
"These people are the Huns!"
"Hun?" Professor Lin silently chewed on the two words Shen Xiaoxiao said.
He had heard of this race. They were nomadic people who were very good at fighting and liked to go south to plunder.
Could it be that the First Emperor imprisoned the Xiongnu prisoners here to breed wild beasts?
Thinking of this idea, Professor Lin couldn't help but speed up his pace.
Generally speaking, there will be murals and the like in this ancient tomb.
Used to record the life of the tomb owner.
Perhaps he could find clues in these places.
There is a road next to the corpse mountain, which does not completely block the tomb passage.
This road was obviously set aside by the ancients.
Professor Lin and others were extremely happy.
If they were allowed to climb up from the mountain of corpses, it would really cost lives!
Although the anti-corrosion effect here is good.
However, these mountains of corpses actually stink.
Green corpses are flowing everywhere, just looking at it is enough to make people's nerves tremble!
Everyone crossed the mountain of corpses and soon came to a huge tomb door.
Above the tomb door are colorful murals.
It's quite well preserved!
Professor Lin glanced at the mountain of corpses in the distance and felt that if he turned on the searchlight now, he would not attract the beast.
Then he carefully turned on the searchlight and carefully studied the colorful mural.
After seeing the content clearly, Professor Lin couldn't help but be shocked.
What this mural depicts is the scene of the Xiongnu going south to massacre the city.
This scene was undoubtedly a brutal massacre.
Fortunately, the Qin cavalry arrived and captured the Huns.
At this time, Zhao Gao, the commander of the CRRC, called in the alchemist and suggested to the First Emperor that these prisoners should be used to cultivate a corpse forest.
Use it to breed Qi, obtain green jade, and refine elixirs.
Professor Lin was stunned.
These contents are all consistent with what Shen Xiaoxiao said!
In other words, everything Shen Xiaoxiao said is true!
But, can these things really be explained clearly in the diary instead of going to the ancient tomb to explore in person?
