Body temperature, heartbeat...
Undoubtedly, this is the basic standard for determining whether a person is dead or alive.
Could it be that these pottery figurines are really alive?
This is really unheard of!!
I have heard of corpses that have not decayed for a thousand years, but I have never heard of people who have not died for a thousand years.
For a moment, I couldn't understand what was happening in front of me.
Could it be that the great god Panshe is really like a god, and now it is about to cross the long river of time to return, so those who once followed him have also shown signs of revival?
The moment this thought came up, I immediately extinguished it in a hazy state.
Tombs do have some extraordinary places. In a sense, the cleverness of their establishment can fulfill people's wishes, or become a nest for nourishing evil spirits, but they will never become a hotbed for the resurrection of the dead. At least there is no such saying in my family's education. I guess even if the Holy Martial Heavenly Official came, he would completely reject such absurd remarks.
"I don't believe it! I want to see how a person who has been dead for a thousand years can come back to life!"
I shouted, pushed Lao Bai to the back, and swung the Tianguan Blade to smash the pottery figurine in front of me.
Crack!
The pottery skin on the face of the pottery figurine was instantly broken, and it was directly flipped over, with its face facing the sky.
Maybe I was too excited, and I used too much force with this stick. Not only was the pottery skin damaged, but even the glass-like crystals on the face of the corpse were broken, just like broken glass. Cracks instantly covered the opponent's face, the cheekbones collapsed, and blood kept flowing out of the eye sockets. The face was smooth and lifelike, but the expression was a little distorted, as if he had experienced great pain before death. The other undamaged eye could still see blood, but the blood was no longer bright red, showing a black and blue color unique to bad blood.
This is clearly a living person who directly took the crocodile pearl powder and was made into a pottery figurine.
Alligator bead powder is highly poisonous. Some books record that after taking this thing, one will feel a pain in the heart and intestines, but will not die for a while. One can carefully experience the feeling of the poison penetrating the whole body until it becomes a sculpture-like thing.
However, the appearance of this pottery figurine in front of me unexpectedly feels familiar to me.
I have seen her!
After thinking for a while, I got a clue. In that Shuangling world, this woman and her husband were sitting in an unfinished tomb, talking and fighting. Her husband was probably the first one to attack, and I cut off his head with a knife. Immediately afterwards, this woman rushed towards me like crazy. If I hadn't dodged in time, I guess she would have bitten me hard on the thigh, so I have a deep impression of her!
Shuangling, pottery figurines...
When these two are connected, a ray of light passes through my heart, illuminating all the fog hidden in the corners.
"I understand. This is a cruel and vicious way of sacrificing a dead person as if he were alive!"
I thought about all this carefully. I had never heard of this evil method, but connecting all of this did not prevent me from guessing. Moreover, I think my guess is close to the truth.
Facts have proved that the Shuangling we saw were stripped from the people in these pottery figurines. They were not automatically separated from the body when they knew they would die and dared to die. This must be the evil method of the great wizard. It was he who created that weird place.
I guess the main purpose of doing this is to strip off the ghost nature!
Shuangling is responsible for the change of yin energy. The yin energy and ghost nature of a person after death all come from the Shuangling among the three souls.
Extract the Shuangling and make the person into a pottery figurine. The remaining soul is bound in the body. Without the yin energy, it is no different from a living person. The effect of worship is naturally better than that of a simple pottery figurine.
As for the heartbeat that Lao Bai heard...
This should be the effect of other souls!
As far as I know, the stinking lung among the seven spirits is responsible for breathing. In addition, there is the swallowing thief, which is probably responsible for the immune function.
This corpse has been processed and has not decayed for thousands of years. In addition, some souls are still in the body, so it is normal for it to have some characteristics of a living person.
"This is equivalent to dismembering the soul. Without the Shuangling, she can't be a ghost. And part of the soul is sealed in the body, making the body present a characteristic similar to that of a living person, so the corpse can't become a zongzi, and it's neither dead nor alive. It's probably like this, right?"
Zhang Xinya thought about it and asked me: "Then do you think she is still conscious? The Fu Shi in the three souls and seven spirits should be the main consciousness. If the Fu Shi is still there, doesn't it mean that she is still awake now?"
"In theory, as long as the Fu Shi is still there, she must be conscious."
I said: "However, we don't know how many souls and spirits are sealed in this body now. It is possible that only a Shuangling is lost, or it is possible that other souls are lost. This thing is uncertain. You also know that it is too difficult to keep the soul, especially the Fu Shi in the seven spirits!"
The reason is very simple. The Fu Shi in the seven spirits will immediately dissipate at the moment of death!
This soul is the most difficult to retain. I have never heard of anyone who can succeed. If you can retain consciousness, it is equivalent to retaining this person. I said that resurrection from the dead cannot be achieved because of this!
However, the disintegration of Fu Shi is not a permanent disintegration.
When a person dies, the three souls and seven spirits will be separated for a short time. Apart from Fu Shi's soul, the other souls will soon reunite together. This is the ghost. There is a very short moment, the ghost is actually confused, but soon, Fu Shi will reunite. Whether it is a Yin person or a fierce ghost, it will be known at this moment. If there is a deep hatred, the Shuang Ling explodes, and the ghost nature is deep, then it is a fierce ghost. If the life is smooth, naturally there will be no so many things.
I think that the people in these pottery figurines are probably not conscious.
If the great wizard can really do this, isn't it against the will of heaven?
I shook my head. After all, they are so cruel to their own people, isn't it for that useless Panshe God?
However, these have nothing to do with us. What is certain is that the flesh and blood of the people in the terracotta figurines have become something similar to porcelain under the effect of the crocodile powder. They are very brittle and can't even stand up, let alone do anything else. They are not a threat to us.
I looked around again and found a hole here.
It was a dark arched bridge-shaped corridor, but judging from its direction, it should lead here, not the way out of here.
In the final analysis, this is still a dead end.
After a little thought, I cast my eyes on the altar in the middle.
Could it be that there is some door there?
Looking around, it seems that the altar is the most abrupt and special here. I hesitated for a while, and finally decided to explore it. What if there is any new discovery?
I got closer and realized how magnificent this altar was. It was even more magnificent than the pyramids. Standing below and looking up, I felt my insignificance.
In the middle of the altar, there is a staircase leading to the top. There are warriors standing on both sides of the staircase. I looked at them carefully when I passed by. These warriors are actually just some stone sculptures, but they are wearing armor, and they are full body armor. They hold bronze halberds in their hands. They look very majestic. Such weapons and armor were very expensive in ancient times. So many stone men wearing such armor must have exhausted the family resources of Donghu.
"Hey, why is there a broken stone man here?"
Halfway through the journey, Lao Bai suddenly pointed to a stone man scattered on the steps and asked a question.
This stone man has been broken, and the head, upper body, and lower limbs are divided into several pieces.
Brother Yaozi immediately raised his head and looked up, then lowered his voice and said to me: "Something is wrong!"
I thought for a moment and vaguely understood what he meant.
We are now very close to the top of the altar. Looking up, we can see the two evil statues on it. The stone sculptures on the steps are in full view. They look neat and tidy, and there is nothing missing.
So where did this damaged stone man come from?
Old Diaoye hurriedly squatted in front of the broken stone man and took a look. He turned his head and said to us: "The fracture surface is new, which means that this stone man was broken not long ago!"
My breathing stagnated, and I looked at the guards in front of me who were wrapped in armor. Their eyes had changed...
