Chapter 231
While everyone was interpreting the images on the bronze tripod, the fat man had already moved all the valuable jars, pots, jade plates and the like in the whale bone tomb into the storage ring.
In addition, he did not let go of the beads in the mouths of the five corpses, and he dug them all out.
The five corpses, without the nourishment of the beads, suddenly turned dark in color and looked like zombies.
Shen Hao and the others did not pay attention to the fat man's actions.
Shen Hao did not like the things here, so he let him take them, it didn't matter.
The fat man untied the "dragon skin" wrapped around the corpses, but unexpectedly found that there was a mutilated dead baby hidden in each of the three female corpses.
And there were wounds on their stomachs from being cut open.
The fat man could tell at a glance that something was stuffed in the female corpses' stomachs.
He took out the things inside, but found that they were some round stones.
The stomachs were stuffed bulging, and in addition, there were the deformed and mutilated dead babies.
The fat man was shocked when he saw this.
"Master Shen, Lao Hu, come and take a look, what's going on?"
"Why put stones in the stomach? And there is a deformed dead baby?"
Shen Hao had expected this, but Hu Bayi was surprised.
"Is it some evil magic to raise a ghost?"
Yang Xueli said at this time: "It shouldn't be. This may still be related to the customs of the Hate Tian family. You see, there are related pictures and records on this bronze tripod."
Hu Bayi and the fat man came to Yang Xueli and looked at the pattern on the bronze tripod.
Yang Xueli interpreted it.
It turned out that the other two male corpses were the real dead waiting to be buried, and the three pregnant women should be sacrifices for burial.
The deformity of the baby in the pregnant woman's body is related to the lunar eclipse.
According to ancient legends, pregnant women cannot see the lunar eclipse, otherwise the baby born will definitely have mutilated limbs!
In the superstitious concept of the ancients, "lunar eclipse" is a break, a total lunar eclipse is a big break, and the rest are small breaks.
When the moon breaks, the moon's yin essence is eroded by the heaven and earth, and pregnant women will feel it.
The pregnant women who saw the lunar eclipse and had deformed fetuses were sacrificed so that the two dead bodies could go to the moon after death and seek the elixir of immortality in the moon palace.
On the bronze tripod pattern, a huge bright moon hangs in the sky, with the moon palace, fairy maidens, and pills representing the elixir of immortality.
And the tilted giant tree that leans against the sky and touches the ground is the passage to the moon.
It is restrained by countless bronze men with chains and aimed at the moon-like hole.
And the lower half of the picture.
Under the sea, there is a huge tripod in the sea water.
According to the description on the screen, there is an extremely huge tripod under the water of this coral cave. Three deformed babies born from the lunar eclipse need to be gathered and thrown into the giant tripod under the sea, so that the undead can pass through the giant tree and go to the Moon Palace to seek the elixir of immortality.
This country of Hate Heaven has developed an extremely powerful bronze civilization with the help of dragon fire.
But they are too superstitious about the elixir of immortality in the Moon Palace.
They used the power of the whole family to dig the sacred tree under the sea and cast bronze, which is probably the reason for their final destruction.
The seabed rock layer was hollowed out and could not withstand the pressure of sea air and sea water.
Yang Xueli finally said: "I just don't know whether they can really fly to the moon, or it is just a special method of sea burial."
"There is also a pattern of Zhen Gua on the giant tripod in your picture."
Hu Bayi looked carefully and saw that there was indeed a group of symbols of Zhen up and down, which seemed to be some kind of mechanism.
But just looking at the picture on the bronze tripod, nothing can be seen at all.
"Master Shen, should we go down to the bottom of the water to see what's going on with this giant tripod?" Hu Bayi asked.
"Okay, okay~, let's go down and take a look, there's nothing to do anyway." The fat man agreed with both hands and feet.
The pattern on the tripod also said that there is a coffin of Hentian under the water, and there may be good things inside.
"Okay, but you have to pay attention to safety, there is a big guy under here!" Shen Hao reminded the three people.
"Big guy? What kind of big guy, how big is it?" The fat man asked.
Shen Hao smiled: "How big? It's dozens of meters big. Judging from its appearance, it's a thousand-year-old mermaid! It's in the cave under the water. Be careful not to provoke it."
"As for the other side, it's a mother-of-pearl sea with many old clams. Shirley, you should focus on going there."
The three people were very surprised when they heard it.
"Thousand-year-old mermaid? Oh my god!"
"I'm afraid this guy is not easy to deal with, let's not provoke him."
The fat man said sincerely.
Hu Bayi and Yang Xueli also nodded in agreement.
"Okay, you go ahead, I'll go check out other places." Shen Hao said to the others.
Three peopleNodding, then, getting ready, he dived into the pool in front of him.
The bottom of the water was very dark, and Hu Bayi immediately used a light spell to light up a ball of light.
The light ball was not big, but it could illuminate the surrounding area of more than ten meters.
The three of them dived into the water, and after diving more than ten meters, they came to a coral fossil forest.
In the coral forest, there are countless caves of different sizes, which are full of human corpses.
This is the tomb of the mermaids under the sea.
Seeing these mermaid corpses, everyone became more vigilant.
Shen Hao reminded them that there is a mermaid here, so there must be many mermaids.
Be careful.
Don't alarm the mermaid, otherwise you can only run away.
Seeing this, the three of them immediately moved away from the coral forest and continued to swim downstream.
They dived more than thirty meters and finally reached the bottom.
Sure enough, they saw an extremely huge tripod, now in the coral fossil.
The diameter of this tripod is not much less than that of the giant tree.
And in the mouth of the tripod, there is a huge coral iron tree growing in it.
Hu Bayi gestured to Yang Xueli and Wang Pangzi, indicating that they should go down and take a look.
The three of them dived down and took a closer look, but found that it turned out to be a huge basin-shaped rock. It was unknown whether it was formed naturally or excavated by Hentian.
In the stone basin, there were several large bronze tripods, with dozens of extremely thick bronze chains hanging on them, all of which sank into the vortex under the water deeper in the stone basin.
A huge suction force came from it.
Hu Bayi understood in his heart that it seemed that this so-called giant tripod was not a tripod at all, but just looked like one.
This was clearly a giant rock turntable, a huge mechanical device.
Hu Bayi looked at the coral iron tree in the giant tripod, and suddenly found that there seemed to be something stuck in the branch of the iron tree.
So, he swam over carefully, feeling the chain, and put him into the storage ring.
After returning outside, he took it out again.
It turned out to be a black coffin.
