Chapter 283 Giant Face
?The thick vines growing on the surface of the giant chimney are actually about the same nature as ivy. As long as one is uncovered, they can be pulled off all the "leather and flesh". At this time, the **oss, who is more than two meters tall, was furious because he was surrounded by vines. He actually roared and pulled down all the vines wrapped around the surface of the chimney. Not only that, the floor above our heads was also corroded severely because they were too old. At this time, it collapsed with countless vines, pressing Fatty Wang and I down.
Fortunately, the vines were thick enough and the floor collapsed and fell slanted again. Fatty Wang and I were not pressed down. But even so, he and I were scared and hurriedly struggled to drill on the vines.
Soon, both of us got out of the vines, but at this time the headlights on our bodies were crushed and there was nothing black around us.
Just when we were at a loss, a light suddenly lit up in the air. At the same time, Ah Dai's voice came over: "Fat Uncle, Brother Zhou, hurry up and climb up, those ghost things are coming out!"
When I turned my head and saw that those special medicine men were like us, gradually emerging from the dense vines. At first glance, they looked like many "cute" little gophers appeared among the vines, waiting for Fatty Wang and I to go up and knock.
But then I couldn't figure out the meaning of Ah Dai's words "climbing up". How did he climb this? Is there a ladder on the chimney?
When Ah Dai and others saw Fatty Wang and I were stunned, they hurriedly ignited a few cold fireworks and threw them around us, which made the light around them suddenly increase. Only then did I realize that there was actually a ladder on the chimney.
But soon I found something wrong, because I originally thought it was just a chimney made of plain bronze, which turned out to be a large copper pillar with a diameter of about three meters. At first glance, I thought it was a bronze wall with a curve. Moreover, the copper pillar was straight up and unattainable. There were many small but different thicknesses on the copper pillar, densely packed with thousands of them, and they looked like a ladder. I don’t know how many more they were going up.
Only then did I realize that this thing turned out to be a giant bronze tree, but the inside of the bronze tree was transformed into a chimney. The reason why we didn't find that there were countless copper sticks on it before was because there were too many vines growing on it. At this time, the vines were torn off by **oss, and the tall bronze tree barely revealed its full appearance.
Fatty Wang was surprised to see such a huge copper pillar and was chilling all over. He trembled and said, "Part wise, I thought the outside of the chimney was covered with stones, but I didn't expect that this girl was all made of bronze. It was such a big deal!"
Among the existing records in our country, bronze trees are relatively rare cultural relics. In my memory, except for the unearthed in Sanxingdui, there seems to be no other places. I also learned a little from the documentary that the archaeological community has no conclusion on the cause of this, and there are many statements. However, from the casting process, this bronze tree has nothing to do except big. Obviously, such a huge project is good, and it doesn’t matter what it is beautiful.
But now we can't help thinking too much. More and more special medicine people are gradually emerging from the distance. It seems that they will all come out in a few minutes and surrounded us again. So we had to bite the bullet and stretch out our hands to grab the copper stick on the bronze pillar, ready to climb upwards.
When we looked closer, we found that the surface of this bronze tree was not smooth, and it was engraved with clouds and thunder patterns, symbolizing the divinity of bronze ware. So I asked Fatty Wang while crawling, what exactly were these things used for?
Fatty Wang said that the ornaments on bronze ware are constantly developed according to the idea of serving ritual ware. To be honest, it is used to scare the lower class and add some mysterious colors, but it has no practical effect.
After I heard him say it, I really wanted to stop and let him go. It was like he didn't say anything. So I continued to ask: "Can the bronze craftsmanship be able to cast such things in the past?"
Fatty Wang gave me a blank look and said, "You ask me? Who else should I go? I only know that bronze ware must be made first at that time. Theoretically, as long as the pottery model can be made, it is possible to cast the finished product. However, this thing is too big and I am afraid it cannot be made with traditional craftsmanship. However, from 1 BC to around the first year of AD, it was called the Miracle Age. Many impossible things were built at that time, such as the Great Wall, the pyramid, the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, and the Tower of Babel. If you say that this bronze tree cannot be cast, it is difficult to say. After all, our ancestors would have cast bronze ware at that time. At that time, the emperor gave the order, and the people below covered their heads and worked hard for decades. "
"Yes, the eggs are all together!" I sighed lightly, no longer thinking about it, but climbed up with concentration. Although those special medicine men were terrifying, their joints were probably burned. I think they wouldn't be able to climb trees, right?
"How about it? What does it mean?" Fatty Wang muttered and stopped talking. At that moment, the bronze stick branches on the bronze tree began to climb.
The branches above are not tight and easy to get up. I can see clearly against the bronze walls. These stretched branches are cast at the same time as the torso, and the interface is flawless without a trace of forging. However, I was surprised that the gap between the cloud and thunder patterns on it is very deep, and it seems to be carved to the depths of the torso, so I can't see anything in the carving ditch.
We climbed about twenty meters and finally reached the opening where I entered the chimney before. Ah Dai and others had been waiting for a long time, so they hurriedly reached out and pulled us over.
It turned out that when we were trapped at the bottom of the chimney, they were ready to come in to help. But as soon as they were ready, they heard gunfire sounds below. Before they could react, the floor under their feet began to "click". At the same time, the vines around the chimney began to shrink down, gradually revealing the bronze stick outside the chimney. They had no choice but to climb up the bronze pillar, and then they saw us drilling out from below.
Fatty Wang and I were sweating and panting. I looked down and could hardly see those special medicine men. I could only see a few cold fireworks thrown by Ah Dai. So I suggested that everyone take a break first and see if we could find a chance to retrieve the dead guy's corpse.
Fatty Wang was already tired enough, his feet were trembling and he could hardly stand firmly. He sat on the branches of a bronze stick, his feet were not solid in the air, and he couldn't rest well: "Don't think about it, that guy probably had been eaten up long ago, and there was not even a bone left!"
After hearing what he said, I felt a little embarrassed to face Erlangzi and others. The dead guy was a brother who had been with them for many years, but he died tragically under the chimney because he saved me.
However, Erlangzi and others were also used to seeing life and death men. They were silent for a while, and then smiled again, saying, "Since ancient times, no one will die, and even die sooner or later!" Why bother to care so much?
Seeing them so relieved, I felt much better, so I asked them what they were going to do next?
Fatty Wang may have seen the atmosphere a little awkward, so he took the backpack, took out the food from it and threw it to us, letting us chew it in our mouths, and said to us: "The floor slabs on this floor have collapsed, and I guess we can't rest. Why don't we climb up after eating and then look for the way up again. Now, let Fatty, tell you a dirty joke to relax?"
I didn't want to talk, and cursed, "Go, aren't you tired? Now I don't have the heart to listen to you talking about these unnutritious things!"
?After we finished eating, our strength recovered a lot, and Fatty Wang urged to continue on the road. I raised my feet and just as I was about to leave, I suddenly heard a scream, as if it was transmitted from a very far place, but I couldn't tell the specific direction.
The scream seemed to be made by a man, and it was only out of extreme fear that I would make such a scream. So I hurriedly turned my head over to look at Fatty Wang. Fatty Wang nodded, meaning that he also heard it. He also pointed at the top of our heads with his fingers and said, "Above us, it seems to be a foreigner, and the sentence I just shouted was pronounced in English!"
I was thinking in my mind whether Jude Kao's subordinates also appeared here? Suddenly, the entire bronze tree shook slightly, as if it had hit something. I was so scared that I took a breath and asked what was going on.
Fatty Wang made a ban on our voice, and then put his hands in a trumpet-shaped shape and stuck them on the copper wall. When he heard this, his face suddenly changed and he hurriedly shouted at us: "Hurry up against the wall, something fell off it!"
Upon hearing this, we hurriedly pressed our bodies against the bronze pillar. As soon as we finished, we heard a loud bang above our heads. Then a bronze stove the size of a water tank smashed the floor above and fell from us in a gust of wind.
"My uncle, do you have some moral character? What if this is a damn thing? Even if you can't hit someone, it's wrong to hit flowers and plants!" Fatty Wang was obese and almost wiped the bronze stove on his back just now. He was really scared and sweated in a cold sweat, so he couldn't help but curse.
But as soon as he finished speaking, I felt a very slight trembling sound coming from far to near, with a chaotic and fast frequency, as if many people were constantly scratching the lines on the copper tree with their nails. The more I heard it, I felt something was wrong, and I immediately pulled Fatty Wang and asked him to hide.
Soon, several bronze stoves fell down on it, and one of them even hit the bronze stick. A large piece of bronze stick was bent, which scared us so much that we didn't even dare to move. We kept begging God in our hearts, saying that we must not hit us!
After finally waiting for the surroundings to calm down, I rubbed my slightly sore arms and wanted to look up. As I looked at it, I almost didn't scare my soul away. In the darkness above our heads, there was a person lying on a bronze tree like a monkey, revealing only a pale face, looking at us without any expression.
This human face is as big as an ordinary person, and its facial features are like carved stones, without any popularity, and it looks terrifying.
Then, Ah Dai also discovered the existence of this face. He subconsciously raised the strong flashlight to shine on the human face. When the light shone on the human face, it suddenly shrank back, as if it was very taboo to strong light. However, at the same time, a smile appeared on its face, which was extremely strange, and an extremely long drool flowed out of its mouth, as if it had seen something delicious.
"What the hell?" Fatty Wang frowned, and then asked us to turn on a few more flashlights to see clearly.
As soon as we took out the flashlight, the human face flew down and rushed towards us with a strange expression.
"Damn!" Fatty Wang shook his hand like a conditioned reflex and shot him. He heard a loud "ping-top" sound. The rifle in his hand spit out a tongue of flame, hitting the giant face.
The distance between the shot was too close, and the bullet directly smashed the entire giant face, pulling the giant face off the bronze tree and falling into the darkness. As a result, we did not see clearly what was behind the giant face, and we didn't know whether it was a human or a ghost?
We didn't expect the rifle to work like this, but when we saw that the giant face could be killed by the rifle, we felt relieved. But just as I was about to speak, I saw two pale faces poking out about ten meters above my head.
I was shocked and hurriedly called Fatty Wang and told him to shoot quickly. But Fatty Wang didn't know what was going on, so he looked up at the two strange faces, without any intention of shooting.
I was so panicked that I was about to take his gun up and shouted at him.
Fatty Wang frowned, stretched out my hand to grab the gun and slapped me away, and then said, "Xiao Zhou, do you look at that face, do you look like a foreigner after being rheumatism? It's like the guy who is Hawking, he has such a face!"
After hearing what he said, I calmed down and gathered the light of the flashlight to look at the two giant faces. It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t look at it. After looking at it, I realized that it was really just like Fatty Wang said, and those two giant faces looked like two foreigners with facial paralysis.
The foreigners' faces were originally bigger than us, and the light was dim around us, so we regarded them as monsters for a moment. But then we looked carefully and found that they were indeed two foreigners. But they didn't know what evil they had been in, and they couldn't move like they had a stroke, so they couldn't even close their mouths, so they kept drooling. However, their bodies were still conscious and knew to avoid the strong light. I thought they should still be awake, but they just didn't know why they became like this?
