Chapter 136 Giant Bronze Tree
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and some guys immediately raised their guns. The huge thing in front exuded a huge sense of oppression in the darkness!
We walked forward carefully, and the guys began to scatter to both sides, forming a surround of the thing.
And when we really got closer to it and saw the true face of this huge object, we were all stunned!
In front of us was a tree, and it was not an ordinary tree. It was a huge bronze tree! I was completely shocked. I was just guessing that the bronze smelting technology of the ancient Chinese period of Shanhuan might not be proficient in it, so there would not be larger bronze products. I didn’t expect to be slapped in the face so soon!
The thing in front of me can be regarded as the largest bronze ware discovered in the history of Chinese archaeology so far. I know that the largest bronze ware known and recognized is the Simuwu tripod from the Shang Dynasty. The Simuwu tripod is 112 cm long, 79.2 cm wide, 6 cm thick, 133 cm high in the ears, and 832.84 kilograms. It is really very large, but compared with the bronze tree we saw at this time, it is simply a witch.
Although we cannot move such a huge object, everyone is very excited to see such something with their own eyes! If this thing is placed outside, it is definitely a national treasure. Such a huge bronze tree, even the eight bronze sacred trees at the Sanxingdui site will be difficult to compete with its value.
This bronze tree looks very realistic, with the trunk almost as thick as a hug, and the builder carefully reflects some thick roots. There are very dense branches on the trunk, and countless branches and trunks intersect each other.
It's just that something strange to me. The rest of the entire bronze tree is very realistic, but the branches and leaves are expressed in a curly form. The branches are twisted and the leaves are circling. Perhaps it is to make the entire bronze tree look very dense, but when you look closely, it makes people feel very uncomfortable, just like snakes lying on the tree, which makes the bronze tree exude a very strange atmosphere.
We raised the flashlight to shine the top of the bronze tree, and found that at the top of the "tree", there were small black shadows about half a meter. The group looked carefully for a long time, and after a long time, Lanxiao hesitated and said, "It seems like there are many birds?"
"That's right, the outline is indeed like a bird!" I also saw the appearance of those little black shadows clearly and spoke.
"My God," Kong Xue tried hard to tiptoe and looked upward, "These birds also look like they are made of bronze. Look, they also have metallic luster! This technique is amazing!"
After hearing Kong Xue's words, I suddenly felt something was wrong. Before I could figure it out, I saw Lantern Festival walking under the bronze tree and carefully looking at the bronze tree.
Tang Handong frowned and said, "Yuan Ding, what do you want to do?"
Yuanxiao turned around and smiled, "Dad, I think this bronze tree is definitely a treasure, but unfortunately I can't get it out, so I want to get one of the bronze birds above, and it will definitely be sold for a big price when I get it outside!"
Tang Handong frowned, "Nothing! Come back with me quickly! This bronze tree is probably not that simple!" Although Lantern Festival has always been thief and cannot walk when he sees good things, he still dare not ignore Tang Handong's words.
Yuanxiao walked back dejectedly, walked to me with resentment, and muttered to me in a low voice, "Are my dad too careful? It's just a bronze tree, can it bite me!"
I smiled and patted Yuanxiao on the shoulder, "Don't cheat on your father!"
"go!"
Tang Handong waved his hand and signaled everyone to continue moving forward. Wen Mo whispered, "Be careful of the bronze tree, there may be something wrong with it!"
We were shocked and nodded immediately. Wen Mo was very prestigious among us, and we would listen to all his words, and even Lantern Festival quickly agreed.
When passing by the bronze tree, a few of us deliberately chose to walk away from the bronze tree. Although Tang Handong was not allowed to move the bronze tree, some of the Tang family still walked under the bronze tree curiously, and some even shone the bronze tree from below with flashlights.
Suddenly, a guy walking under the bronze tree screamed and fell to the ground. The person next to him rushed over to help him and asked, "What's wrong with you? What's the nerve?"
The guy shivered and pointed his hand at the bronze tree above, "Die, dead!"
After hearing what the guy said, we couldn't help but frown. I couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Tang Handong's men were all selected elite soldiers and powerful generals. Everyone has a skill and rich experience. Are there few strange things I have experienced along the way? Even if I see a dead person under the bronze tree, I will not be so scared.
I was exploring, and I heard the man screaming again with some uncontrollably, "There are all dead people in the bronze tree!"
Everyone's faces changed now. Everyone ran over and saw that, indeed, under the bronze tree, a dry face was squeezed out in a gap with a large gap in the branches and leaves. Because the branches and leaves of this bronze tree are arranged very tightly, and the light here is very bad, even if you shine it with a flashlight, it is difficult to see clearly the situation inside the branches and leaves of the bronze tree, so we did not notice the situation inside the bronze tree canopy, and we really didn't expect this situation to happen!
We raised the flashlight and our eyes extended into the inside as the face was located. Sure enough, we saw more corpses, and what surprised us the most was that there were some corpses that looked relatively new!
Some Tang family guys pointed at one of the bodies and shouted, "Look, that one seems to be stupid!"
Everyone looked in that direction, and sure enough, they saw a fresh corpse on the side of the tree canopy. This person should have just died, and it seemed that the blood on his body had not dried yet. This person should be the person called Daimao, whom Mr. Tang said.
Everyone looked at Daimao's corpse in fear, and even Tang Handong and Zhou Cheng's faces became ugly!
I looked at the Lantern Festival next to me. At this time, Lantern Festival was full of disbelief, with a hint of fear in her eyes. I asked in a low voice: "What's going on with this person?"
After a while, Yuanxiao came to his senses and said with some stuttering: "This, this person is a dazed man. He is usually a little stunned when doing things, but he is brave in doing things..." I saw that Yuanxiao had not recovered for a while, so I patted him hard, "You talk about the key points, stop talking nonsense!"
Yuanxiao came to his senses now, "Ah, oh! When we were walking in the river, we were attacked by two extremely strange dumplings."
I hurriedly asked, "Is it a deformed race with slender limbs in the secret?"
Yuanxiao nodded, "Yes, that's that, but I heard from Mr. Yue that this kind of race that looks like a deformed person was actually the ancestors here, and the people from the ancient Shanhuan Kingdom later moved here."
"The ancestors here?" Yuanxiao's words confused me for a moment, but my focus was not on this at this moment, so I said, "Okay, let's ignore this for now, and continue to say, what happened to you later?"
"Oh," Lanxiao responded and continued, "Because the incident suddenly happened, Daimao and another friend all died in the attack. We placed their bodies far away from the river and left! But," said Lanxiao's face changed, raised his hand and pointed at the bronze tree, and said, "But why, he, how could he, be here!"
After hearing what Yuanxiao said, I felt my scalp tingling. From the river that Yuanxiao mentioned to the location where we are, this distance is not only very long but also winding. How did the dead corpse get here? Could it be that he came here by himself? But even if he can get here, will the corpse still know how to open these two doors correctly?
Everyone looked at the countless corpses on the bronze tree and fell into silence. The tension and depression spread rapidly among us, and I felt a very bad premonition. Maybe this is the most dangerous place in this royal tomb!
Tang Handong looked up at the crown of the bronze tree and pondered for a while, then said lightly: "Everyone, quickly pass through the position of the bronze tree, don't move anything!"
After walking past the bronze tree, I whispered to Wen Mo who was walking beside me, "Boss, what do you think is going on?"
"What's going on?" Wen Mo said as he walked.
I was really convinced! I pointed to the bronze tree behind me, "That's it! How did those corpses get inside the crown of the bronze tree?"
Wen Mo lowered his head and thought for a long time, then suddenly raised his head, "Can you see the tomb top here?"
I was confused by his sudden words, "Top of the tomb?" I looked up and looked up. Sure enough, I shone the flashlight upwards. Even if I turned the light to the brightest, I could only see a dark void.
I still didn't understand what Wenmo meant, so I asked, "What the hell do you want to say?"
Wen Mo looked around and said, "There are stone walls on all sides here, and there are no abnormalities on the ground, and there are restrictions on the entrances and exits, so the only possibility is above!"
I was a little puzzled, "You mean he jumped into the bronze canopy from above?" After saying this, I suddenly thought of something and opened my eyes widened, "Are you saying that something has brought the body here?"
Wen Mo nodded, "At present, there is only this possibility!" I couldn't help but feel a chill on my back.
Chapter completed!
