Volume 1 Chapter 103: Stone figurines alive

Because there was no threat of ghost fire, we also relaxed. Master Cao and I ate to replenish our energy, and Butterfly took two friends to the stone figurine pit to investigate the situation.

My eldest sister stood beside me, put her hands in her pockets and looked at me tightly. I felt a little uncomfortable when she looked at me. I said, "Sister, why are you looking at me like this?"

"Didn't I suffer a lot in the years I've been there?"

I was stunned for a moment and nodded silently.

In fact, when I first entered the two years ago, I was not old. The prisoners were all middle-aged people in their thirties and forties, forties and fifties. If it was okay, they would use me to run errands or other physically laborious work.

And I had no way to resist, so I could only endure all this silently.

Fortunately, he found a backer, and he was a force in the prison. Although he did not live a big boss life, he was at least not bullied anymore.

Of course, this is not what makes me most painful. The most painful thing is that no family member comes to visit me for five years. This is what makes me most desperate.

The eldest sister showed a rare gentle side, and her eyes were full of guilt: "Xiaoqiu, it's the eldest sister who is sorry for you. Because she just got an official position in those years, and because her position is similar to the mistakes she made at home, I was afraid that she would be dismissed because of this, so she never dared to see you..."

"It's okay, sister, I didn't blame you."

Actually, I guessed it was this result, but I never blamed my elder sister; because as a member of the Zhang family, I should have been aware of falling apart one day since I was born. Although I have never been exposed to anything about tumbling since I was a child, the Zhang family naturally accepted this.

The eldest sister opened her mouth and stopped talking, but due to her personality, she was unable to say a few more words of concern for me in the end.

Not long after, the butterfly came back from the stone yard pit and said to us: "There is no danger inside, but the space is amazingly large, even larger than the pit of Qin Shihuang's Terracotta Warriors and Horses!"

Sure enough, this place is almost the same as what I expected, it is larger than the Terracotta Warriors and Horses pits found in Xi'an.

I felt awe. If we had not come in as tomb robbers, we must have discovered this miracle and reported it to the organization, and our names would probably have been recorded in history.

However, we entered here as tomb robbers, and it was impossible for us to report it here in the end.

This is why so many Tushizis have encountered hundreds of strange ancient tombs, but none of them reported their discoveries to the organization.

After resting for a while, we reorganized and started to go into the stone figurine pit.

Standing next to the stone figurine pit, I realized how big it is. The pit is deep and it is more than three meters high.

The stone figurines in the pit are arranged very neatly. Unlike the Qin Terracotta Warriors, the stone figurines here do not have various forms, or stone figurines such as carriages. They only have a single ordinary figurine, wearing something similar to armor.

As an authentic southerner, I was 1.75 meters tall when I was in my hometown in Hunan, and the size of these stone figurines was over 1.8 meters tall, half a head taller than me.

"The stone figurines here are taller than the Terracotta Warriors and Horses in the pit in Xi'an, but the workmanship is a little rougher." Master Cao used a flashlight to find a stone figurine and observe it carefully.

I said: "The people living in the Kunlun Mountains are all Tibetans. It is normal for them to grow up by drinking milk and eating meat. These stone figurines must be made based on the proportion of Tibetan figures."

"You are wrong with Mr. Qiu. The Kunlun Mountains are relatively high in altitude and the plateau is lacking in oxygen, so the Tibetans living here are much shorter than the Han people... If I say, the stone figurines here are unlikely to be made according to Tibetans."

Wen Nan pushed her glasses with her palm, in a very rigorous tone.

Each stone figurine in the pit is about half a meter apart. We pass by here with our bags on our backs and we will encounter these stone figurines from time to time.

I said, "Sir Cao, how did you say that in ancient times, how did they make such large-scale stone figurines like Qin Shihuang's Terracotta Warriors and Horses here?"

Mr. Cao shook his head: "There are different opinions on the production of Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses in the archaeological world. When they were first unearthed, they were not earthy yellow. Later, they were all oxidized to earthy yellow because of improper preservation. The stone figurines in this pit were also oxidized for too long. There are three statements about production, but because modern technology cannot understand or explain it... I don't study stone figurines deeply, and I can't explain them in detail."

After a pause, Master Cao said that Professor Chen was originally a scientific researcher who was the main focus of Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses, and he had a very profound research on this.

Moreover, in the silk book he found, there was a description that mentioned the stone figurines, but I didn't expect that such a huge stone figurine pit was actually found here.

Master Cao believed that if he remembered all the contents of the silk book, it would be much easier to move in this tomb.

Unfortunately, Professor Chen translated with him and didn't take it seriously at all. He just simply wrote the translation and never read the specific and coherent sentences.

In the stone figurine pit, we only have the light of flashlights, and we cannot walk side by side. We can only choose an arranged stone figurine road alone, slowly pass through the gaps in it, and move forward.

To be honest, there are thousands of stone figurines here, and we don’t talk to each other, and they are quiet and weird. I almost dare not use flashlight to illuminate the faces of these stone figurines. Although the expression details on the face have long been oxidized, it is precisely because the expression becomes particularly distorted after oxidation, which is as terrifying as it is.

If I were alone in this stone pit in this environment, I would have been scared to death.

After walking forward for a while, my spine became a little cold, and I always felt my eyes staring at me.

Every time I look back, I can't find anything, I can only see the back of the stone figurines standing blankly on the spot.

"Master Qiu San, do you think this place is a bit weird? Why do I feel that someone has been staring at us?" Master Cao said with a trembling voice.

I was shocked and hurriedly said, "I feel this way too. I thought I couldn't bear it."

“I have, too.”

Butterfly path.

I finally stopped and found something was wrong.

If I am the only one who feels staring at me, it must be because my tolerance is too weak. This mentality is affected by the surrounding environment and magnifies my inner fear.

But now not only Master Cao also has this feeling, but even Butterfly, who has always been sensitive to reaction, says that he has this feeling, which means that something is really wrong.

I quickly turned behind me with a flashlight again and saw the most terrifying scene in my life.

The stone figurines who were originally facing my back turned all over, and their eyes that were originally clay sculptures fell down at this time. Two black holes appeared on each stone figurine's face, and a blood-red eyeball popped out of it in an instant.

I shouted in horror: "Stone...the stone figurine is alive, run, run quickly!"
