But since he still wants to act, let him continue acting.
After all, it’s a fox, and one day its tail will show up!
Fortunately, there was no danger in this underground river, but the water was a bit icy. We finally swam to the other side with great effort. The moment we lay down on the shore, we felt paralyzed.
All they could do was sit on the ground and gasp for air.
"My body is sticky and I feel extremely uncomfortable." Yin Ling'er probably had never suffered such a serious crime. After putting the bamboo basket aside, she kept wringing out her soaked clothes.
Although Yin Ling'er is delicate and unruly, she is very kind to her little friends.
Everyone was swimming just now, but she was holding up her big bamboo basket together. For fear that the water would wet the poisonous insects in it, He Lanxue took her all the way to the shore.
It seems that only Lao Jiang has inherited the tradition of cheating apprentices...
Platoon leader Zhang led the soldiers to light a fire, kindly dried our clothes and let us eat some dry food to replenish our strength.
After traveling such a long way, it really needs some work!
Lao Jiang took out a camera that was only half the size of a palm and pressed the shutter button towards Wang Cheng. I asked him what kind of advanced object this was. He said that this is a miniature camera, used by foreign spies, with a 20MM zoom lens, and Kirin spent a lot of effort to get it.
Now that he has entered the Yin Ruins, he needs to record all the most precious scenes.
Several archaeological experts also marveled: "Once these photos are published in newspapers, the world will remember the Yin Ruins!"
But while he was patting, Lao Jiang suddenly looked at the majestic royal city and was stunned, because the gate of the royal city was actually open, a crack was exposed in the two-meter-high city gate, and the rusty bronze lock fell to the ground, obviously It was vandalized.
This shows that although Wen Tao was ambushed by the blood flies, he still broke into the Yin Ruins with the remnant army.
After everyone had their clothes roughly tightened, they ate some hot food and set off half an hour later.
At this time, no one in the team shouted to retreat, and no one cared about when they would find the exit. Everyone's face was filled with expectant smiles. After all, this is the place that those experts have thought about all their lives. Now that they can have close contact with it, they will have no regrets even if they die.
When we walked into the city gate, we found that this underground royal city was far more spectacular than we imagined!
This place is like a condensed capital. After entering, there is a wide horse road. This horse road is like a central axis, dividing the capital in two from the middle. On the left are the civilian houses where people lived in the Shang Dynasty, and on the right is the market where goods were exchanged.
We walked forward in surprise and found stalls one after another, selling cattle and sheep, as well as millet, millet and other grains.
It's just that the vendors at the stalls are not living people, but carefully carved stone figures.
There were even bronze wine barons, silk fabrics, and foreign slaves kneeling on the ground and tied with ropes for sale at some stalls.
It can be seen how powerful the Shang Dynasty was at that time. Not only did it conquer the Western barbarians, but its economic level also reached a world-class level!
"Who would have thought that this was Shang thousands of years ago?" Baishui sighed sincerely, impressed by the history of China.
However, the social system at that time was limited, and class status was still very obvious. Wealth was only in the hands of the royal family, and they were sold and killed like slaves who were only worthy of being treated as livestock.
We continued to move forward, and the entire Yin and Shang capital seemed to be deliberately replicated here. I found that every time we walked, a strange bronze tripod would appear on the left and right.
Baishui explained: "At that time, people in the Shang Dynasty did not have the concept of one meter or two meters. They used the distance of the car to determine the length! If you look at the distance between the tripods, it should be enough to accommodate nine chariots. This means It’s called: Nine Cars Distance. The buildings on the left are called the Underworld House, and the ones on the right are called the Underworld City. Because people at that time were very superstitious about ghosts and gods. They believed that people have souls after death, as long as there are enough burial objects. , you can continue to enjoy the wealth you had during your lifetime.”
Speaking of this, Baishui suddenly paused: "But I have never seen or heard of a city being buried like this! This is even larger than the tombs of Shang kings recorded in history books..."
"And the bronze tripods on both sides are actually carved with a phoenix pattern. In the Shang Dynasty, dragons were respected and phoenixes were noble. Phoenix patterns were usually buried with royal women."
"Could it be that the owner of the tomb here is a woman?" Even Baishui himself couldn't believe this.
Because of such a huge Yinxu royal city and such a luxurious burial level.
Even the king at that time was not worthy of enjoying it, so how could it be given to a woman?
Regarding Baishui's words, Lao Jiang did not refute, but smiled and said: "There are only a few named women in the Shang Dynasty."
I almost immediately thought of women!
I thought of the heroic female general who conquered the West for her husband.
At this moment, Platoon Leader Zhang and the soldiers who were clearing the way in front shouted to us: "Look ahead, is there another big hole?"
We quickly quickened our pace and soon saw a pit to the west and west.
But this is not a natural formation, but a burial pit dug manually!
This burial pit was very large, occupying almost half of the royal city, and was densely packed with bones of all sizes.
Lao Jiang just took one look at it and said, "This is a living burial from the Shang Dynasty! The people inside are all slaves buried with the owner of the tomb."
Baishui was also very knowledgeable and immediately explained to us the slavery system of the Shang Dynasty.
It turns out that the Shang Dynasty advocated force. They often went west to conquer tribes that did not obey them in order to expand their domain of rule, forming a powerful kingdom that stretched from the Yangtze River in the south to the coast in the east.
And during the battle, a large number of prisoners naturally appeared!
Some will be killed on the spot, and some will be brought back. The men will be sold as slaves and become 'ministers', and the women will be given to the nobles as 'concubines'.
Sure enough, no matter how powerful a country is, it still has its backwardness. I was lamenting this when I caught a glimpse of something extremely scary. It scared me so much that I stepped back and almost fell to the ground.
Lao Jiang saw my frightened expression and quickly asked me what was wrong.
I pointed at a huge skeleton in the corner of the burial pit and shouted, "Is that a slave too?"
Everyone was attracted by my words and looked towards the bottom of the pit. Archaeological expert Lu Baoping even took out a ruler to measure it, and found that the human skeleton was actually two and a half meters high when put together.
His skeleton is also three times the size of a normal human being.
He was surprised: "Aren't ancient people generally shorter than modern people? Here...how come there are such weird skeletons here."
Qiu Xiuxiu said: "There are many wonders in the world, but this may be only one in ten million."
Lao Jiang shook his head and said that these were probably the bones of the legendary giant.
"Giant?"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked over in surprise. As a result, I was suddenly startled again, and even Lao Jiang was shocked by me.
When Lao Jiang reacted, he hit me on the back of my neck: "You're so startled, you don't have the guts to go out."
I pointed at the giant’s eyebrows and told Lao Jiang to take a closer look!
I saw an eye socket sunken into the extremely broad forehead, which was exactly the same as the brow of the corpse we saw in Leizhen.
But the people in Lei Town were cursed, and Xi only grew his third eye when he was ten years old. What happened to this giant?
Lao Jiang obviously understood what I meant. He looked over in surprise and whispered: "Third Eye, could it be that this giant has also been cursed by the same curse?"
Or rather, it originally had a third eye.
An indescribable feeling came to my heart. I was not afraid, but faintly excited. Maybe Lei Zhen's curse could really end in my hands.
In this way, I can be worthy of the dead old mayor, and my mother can come out of the dark underground...
