Chapter 53: The Green Lantern Ghost Fire Man Oil Lamp
At the same time, there was a violent clash at the Liujiatun Pass, and Liu 18 recovered from the shock in the underground tomb of the ancestral hall.
Liu Shibai faintly glanced back at Li Ergou and his wife, who were pretending to be stupid, and then at Cao Xiong, who was full of complicated faces.
It's just that at this time, Liu Shiba's face was a little less naΓ―ve and more wise, and his smart eyes were faintly shining.
Liu 18 didn't expect that Cao Cao was so cruel back then?
actually killed all the captains who had worked for themselves for many years and accumulated military expenses by touching gold and robbing tombs, and still made a puppet martyrdom in such a tragic way?
Thinking of the bloody flesh and howling miserably from his scalp, Liu Shibai shivered all over his body, and the cold was rising!
It's just that Liu Eighteen counted a little less, that is, human ~ sex, who is Cao Cao?
He is the best man in the world, and he uses all kinds of means, so what does it matter if he dies a few people?
But later Sima Yi was even more evil than Cao Cao, and even dug Cao Cao's grave and burned Cao Cao's bones.
Then the Sima family dove occupied the magpie's nest and seized the luck of countless generations of the Cao family, which has made Cao Xiong, the old man, unlucky until now......
Looking at Cao Xiong's current resentment, you can see that this old man's resentment is very deep now......
And in front of him, the white-haired skeleton sitting behind the long case is Sima Yi.
There is revenge, there is revenge, there is resentment and complaining!
However, who will repay the hatred of the seventeen captains who were placed in a feng shui array and miserable skinning?
"Lao Cao, your Cao family's thousand-year-old grievances will be resolved today, what are you going to do?"
Liu Shibai looked at Cao Xiong curiously and asked.
Cao Xiong hesitated for a moment, and then said in a deep voice:
"If you concoct it in the same way, how did the Sima family burn the bones of my Cao family's ancestors back then, and I will return them all to the Sima family today. β
Liu Shibai didn't speak for a while, frowned and thought for a while, and suddenly said:
"Lao Cao, I don't have an opinion on moving away, I can see that the location of Sima Yi's bones is this eye.
I think there may be some cause and effect in the underworld, I am a person who does not believe in gods, Buddhas and ghosts, but after these few days, I have some experience, my opinion is not to burn, leave a good karma. β
Cao Xiong froze for a moment when he heard this, staring at the bones of Sima Yi in armor behind the long case, a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said after a while:
"For the sake of the master's face, I'll listen to you kid once!"
Liu Shibai nodded with a smile and patted Cao Xiong's shoulder.
Next, Li Ergou and his wife helped Cao Xiong take the handle and moved Sima Yi's body to an ordinary corner of the hall without damaging it as much as possible.
"Roar!"
At this time, Liu Shiba's eyes suddenly looked at a corner of the hall, and saw Lao Hei lying on the fire trough, roaring a few times.
Time seemed to freeze, and in the entire underground hall, only the heavy breathing of the four people and the crackling sound of burning in the fire trough could be heard.
Liu Shibai frowned and smelled the smell of fire oil, feeling very uncomfortable, he always felt that something was wrong, this smell, how fragrant it was......
"Smack!"
Liu Shibai patted his head, as if he remembered something, and turned his eyes to look at the scroll of jade slips placed on the other side of the long case.
Walking closer, Liu Shibai gently took the jade slip to his hand and unfolded it on the long case......
So the explanation of this strange tomb of Cao Cao was displayed in front of Liu Eighteen's eyes.
After watching it for a few minutes, the beads of sweat on Liu Shiba's forehead were bigger than soybeans, his eyes were full of horror, and he said in a trembling voice:
"I said that the ancestor of your Cao family turned out to be this ......"
"Little master, what?"
Mr. and Mrs. Li Ergou and Cao Xiong walked over curiously and asked strangely.
Liu Shibatie's face was blue, and he handed the jade slip to Cao Xiong casually!
After watching it for a while, Cao Xiong was also so shocked that his hair stood on end, and he almost overturned the long case, and his eyes bulged.
"What's wrong?
Cuihua's old face, which was so ugly that she couldn't bear to look at it directly, even threw a wink, looked at Liu Shibai and asked.
"Gross, Aunt Cuihua, don't look at me like that, I have a bad stomach!"
Liu 18 saw this flattering eye and smiled bitterly.
"Hmph! Who was with his grandfather when he was a child, climbing the old lady's window every day to watch me wipe my body?
The old lady's white and tender body has been shown to you for so many years?"
Cuihua disdainfully pursed her mouth.
When Liu Shibai heard this, he was speechless, and after a long time, he smiled with a terrible smile:
"Aunt Cuihua, do you know what kind of oil and water is burning in that fire trough, which can last for thousands of years?"
"What's the oil? The lamp oil is either tung oil or rapeseed oil, and what's more? There is that kind of oil lamp in the corridor in our village. β
Li Ergou found a bronze short sword from somewhere, waved it a few times, and replied casually.
At this time, Cao Xiong, who came back to his senses, looked like a poisonous snake, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he said in a dark way:
"In the trough of the fire is human oil, which is boiled with the fat of a living man......"
"What oil? people, people ...... oil"
Cuihua was so frightened that she jumped to the side of Li Ergou, who was also dumbfounded, and stammered in horror:
"Little master, eighteen, you know that my aunt is uneducated, don't scare me!"
Liu 18 slowly walked to the vicinity of the fire trough beside Lao Hei, glanced inside, was silent for a long time, and said heavily again:
"That's right, it's human oil!"
Speaking of this, the four of them couldn't help but feel numb on their scalps at the same time, white hair and cold sweat flowed from their backs, and they looked at the strange cyan flames in the fire trough with fear......
The flames were burning, as if countless resentful spirits were roaring and screaming......
Four people and one dog stared at the burning fire troughs, and the lamp oil in these fire troughs was really refined from human oil.
And the way these oil came from was the prisoners captured by Cao Cao's defeat of the Yellow Turban Army, a full 300,000 prisoners!
Among them, 30,000 elites were organized into Cao Cao's Qingzhou army, and the remaining 270,000, all of which were here, became human oil lamps.
No wonder, no wonder after thousands of years, these fire troughs can still burn, think back then, the human oil in these fire troughs was full, right?
Cao Xiong braved a cold sweat, held the jade slip in his hand, and explained in detail the oil extraction method of the ancient people's oil lamp:
"Human oil, first of all, the oil people, that is, the living people, were thrown into an incompletely sealed iron container, into which the soldiers poured a large amount of food and water every day to prevent the oil men from starving to death.
Alternatively, half an hour after the food is served every day, someone will light a fire from the outside and bake the iron container.
The fire won't be too big, because if it's too big, it will roast the people inside directly, and the oil won't be boiled.
As long as the iron container is burned hot enough, enough for the oily man who touches the four walls of the container to be scalded off a layer of skin.
This process is repeated every day, and at first, the oily man is scalded off the skin and flesh of the soles of the feet, and gradually the skin and flesh of the rest of the body are scalded.
It wasn't until the end, when only a blackened white skeleton was left of the oiler, that the iron container would be opened.
Then, someone would take out the jerky of the human flesh that had stuck to the iron wall, and the jerky would be processed into a lamp for no other purpose.
Lamp oil, on the other hand, is the human oil that flows out of the oil trough when the oil is baked.
This is the method of extracting human oil used in human oil lamps. β
Listening to Cao Xiong's explanation, Liu Shibai and Li Ergou were terrified at the same time, and their faces were like ashes......
Li Ergou, an honest man, directly had trembling lips, his face turned blue, and he roared angrily:
"Cao Xiong, Ecao, your sister ......"
Cao Xiong's forehead burst with green tendons, and he said angrily:
"Ergou, what do you say?"
"At a glance, you know that there are no good people in your Cao family, and you have done such an angry thing......"
Li Ergou scolded justifiably.
