"It's the embossed on the wall!" Qin Yi suddenly said.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone turned to look at the wall and saw a huge palm print on the wall. Needless to say, this palm print was definitely left by Pan Zi. However, what made Qin Yi feel strange was that the palm print seemed to be imprinted on the wall. Perhaps only the Vajra Palm of Tantra could achieve this, but how could Pan Zi do it?
Qin Yi leaned against the wall and took a closer look at the embossed. Then, he stretched out his finger and gently pressed on the relief sculpture. Unexpectedly, the relief sculpture was like plasticine. The place he pressed on directly caved in, and Qin Yi's finger was stained with a lump of green paint.
"So this embossed isn't made of stone!”Qin Yi said as he looked at the paint in his hand.
Third Uncle dipped his hand into the paint and sniffed it before putting his nose down."It seems to be made of wax!"
"Third Master, you mean…Were the embossed on the two walls of the tomb made of wax?”Pan Zi asked Third Uncle in disbelief.
At this moment, Li Feng suddenly shouted,"You guys…quick…look, that person's eyes…Why…Is it bleeding?"
Following Li Feng's finger, they saw that there was also a humanoid embossed on the left front of everyone. At this moment, the eyes of the relief sculpture were slowly overflowing with red blood. The blood dripped down the wall bit by bit. The anger suddenly became very strange. Everyone held their breath and looked at the embossed, not understanding why its eyes were bleeding.
Third Uncle mustered his courage and slowly walked forward. He raised his hand to wipe the blood that had flowed out. After observing for a moment, he heaved a sigh of relief and said,"This isn't blood, it's wax!"
That drop of blood was wax? Everyone knew that wax would only turn into wax oil when it melted. Why would wax oil drip down from this relief sculpture?
Suddenly, the wax on the embossed began to melt and fall off in large pieces. It was as if something was about to drill out of the wall.
Qin Yi frowned and shouted,""It's dangerous!"
However, it was too late. The man broke through the wall and grabbed Third Uncle's neck with both hands, pushing him against the wall on the right. Everyone looked at the figure in surprise and saw that the figure looked like the person in the embossed just now. However, that person was now like a zombie without flesh and blood. Third Uncle's face was pale with fear. He desperately tried to pry the corpse's hands away, but the corpse's strength was surprisingly strong. No matter how Third Uncle struggled, it was useless.
At the critical moment, Pan Zi shot the corpse's head with a bang. The corpse's head shattered like a plaster cast. His body trembled violently, but he did not fall. Third Uncle then remembered that he had a long knife on his back, so he immediately pulled out the long knife and stabbed the corpse's abdomen more than ten times. Then, he threw the corpse far away and hit the wall, turning it into a pool of mud.
A small black bug fell to the ground. It struggled for a while and then stopped moving.
"Gu worm!" Qin Yi exclaimed.
Then, he thought of the corpse just now and said,"It seems that the corpse just now should be the legendary wax corpse!”
A wax corpse?
It was yet another mysterious and strange thing that made people's backs go numb. It had been so long, whether it was dumplings, zombies, or jumping corpses, they had seen all of them! What the hell was this wax corpse?
While everyone was puzzled, Qin Yi explained,""The wax corpse originated from the Western Han Dynasty. At first, people invented the process of making corpses to preserve corpses. On the seventh day after death, they put the dead into a large wooden barrel, then poured warm wax oil into the wooden barrel. After the wax oil cooled down, the semi-finished product of the wax corpse was released. After that, the surface of the wax corpse was polished and trimmed, and finally, the wax corpse was placed into the coffin. The wax oil could prevent moisture, and a corpse protected by the wax oil would never decay. Later on, the crafting of wax corpses was learned by some heretical sects. They did not turn the dead into wax corpses, but the living into wax corpses!”
"Turning living people into wax corpses?" Pan Zi couldn't help but swallow. Just thinking about it made him feel inexplicably disgusted and cruel.
"They first planted Gu worms in the body of a living person. After 49 days, the Gu worms ate all the internal organs of the human body. Then, they sealed the person in wax oil. Such a wax corpse would be controlled by the Gu worms in its body. To put it bluntly, it was a living dead!”Qin Yi explained.
Third Uncle took a slight breath and said," It seems that this tomb is getting stranger and stranger. Perhaps it's the general's tomb that we're looking for!" Moreover, this general's status shouldn't be low. Otherwise, it would be impossible for so many living people to be buried with him!”
From the Scorpion Sacrifice at the beginning to the Blood Dripping Corpse!
This cave and this tomb path became even more blurry, making people feel confused. Perhaps he was the general's tomb that Qin Yi and the others were looking for, or perhaps he was the owner of another tomb.
"Then how did they get out of the wall?”Wang Heizi could not help but ask.
Qin Yi looked at the candle in his hand and said,"The wax on these embossed should not have cooled completely when they were made, so they will melt if they are slightly heated!”
"Oh no!" Third Uncle frowned and said," Since there's one wax corpse here, there can't be two, three, dozens…" A wax corpse?"
Third Uncle's words made everyone present react. Yes, there were so many embossed in this catacomb. If every relief sculpture was a wax corpse, there were at least fifty to sixty wax corpses in this catacomb. If they all woke up, wouldn't they be caught like turtles in a jar by these wax corpses?
As soon as Third Uncle finished speaking, a series of crashing sounds could be heard. The embossed on the walls on both sides of the tomb path cracked one after another, and terrifying wax corpses walked out one after another.
"F * ck!" Pan Zi cursed loudly and fired several shots, knocking down the two wax corpses closest to us. The Gu worm that had lost its host also lost its vitality. It trembled twice and stopped moving.
At this moment, in the dark tomb passage, there were dozens of wax corpses swarming towards the crowd...
