"You are wrong."
Qi Ling did not speak, but Grandpa spoke first: "This is not necessarily a face peeled off from a living person, it is very likely to be peeled off from a dead person."
"Dead people" I asked my grandfather with my eyes widened: "How is it possible?
When the owner of the tomb died, were these people also dead?"
"Yes, these people should have died earlier than him.
For example, after dying in battle, when the body was recovered, the lord was reluctant to part with his beloved general, so he had his face peeled off and preserved using a secret method.
Whenever you miss your beloved general, take it out and look at it, and say your heartfelt words to your beloved general’s face.
Seeing the face is like seeing the person.
After the tomb owner died, he took off the face and buried it with him.
Then he had people make these puppets and then put the face on them, which means that these beloved generals will follow the master after death.
The underworld continues to fight, in fact, it is to guard the tomb."
Grandpa explained.
"Ah, there is such a thing," I said in surprise: "This unique hobby is really unbearable."
"The thoughts of ancient people are actually difficult to understand.
This method of skinning was even more popular during the Three Kingdoms period.
If you hated someone, you would often think of skinning that person to eat their flesh and drink their blood.
After skinning them, you would wear them every day.
Sleeping with someone's skin also means humiliating the other person," Grandpa continued.
"Sleep on skin and eat meat."
I swallowed hard, almost vomiting the sour water in my stomach.
"So is this tomb from three periods?
Could it be Cao Cao's tomb?"
I asked Grandpa Xiang.
"It's basically the tomb of Cao Cao."
Grandpa said confidently.
"Where did you see it?"
I asked confused.
"First, during the Three Kingdoms period, there were not many people who had the ability and status to decorate such a tomb, and Cao Cao was one of them; second, look at the White Horse Gate.
When Cao Cao invited the emperor to Xuchang, there was this in the palace.
A white horse gate, this gate only has The emperor can pass; thirdly, there are not many capable people in history who know the art of puppetry.
Zhuge Kongming during the Three Kingdoms period was one of them.
The wooden cow and flowing horse he created were of great use at that time and have been passed down to this day," Grandpa explained. road.
"Then Zhuge Liang helped Cao Cao set up this tomb, right?"
I opened my mouth.
Even if I don't understand history, I have read the Three Kingdoms.
Zhuge Liang is on the opposite side of Cao Cao.
"It's not Zhuge Liang, but the person who knows Zhuge Liang best."
Grandpa let it slip.
"who" "Sima Yi."
Grandpa talked eloquently: "If you ask who knows Zhuge Liang best among the Three Kingdoms, it must be Sima Yi.
And these people are both extraordinary geniuses and top strategists who love and kill each other. of He is always speculating on the other party, wishing he could understand the other party, and even understand himself.
If he knows himself and the enemy, he can survive a hundred battles.
This puppetry technique must have been obtained from Zhuge Liang, and maybe Sima Yi himself can do it. " I suddenly realized that I still need to read more books.
Now that I am sure that this is Cao Cao's tomb, I feel confident.
Xuan Jing has also found a lot, but it is impossible to leave just like that.

I looked at the black iron puppets on the ground and said with a smile: "With so much black iron, if you take it back to Mozi and study it, it will definitely make him happy to death.
I don't know how long it took Cao Cao to collect these black iron."
The weapon spirit took these black iron puppets into the Tower of Babel one by one.
The harvest this time was quite rich.
Then he glanced around, looked at the arch, the White Horse Gate, and asked Grandpa: "Grandpa, do you think that behind the White Horse Gate is Cao Cao's tomb?"
"Wait, don't rush in."
Grandpa stopped me.
"There is only one door in these four walls.
If you don't enter from here, are there other secret doors?"
I walked to the other three walls and knocked on the walls with my hands, only to find that they were all genuine large doors.
Stone has no hollow sound at all.
But it could also be that the stone seals the door, which is so thick that it cannot be seen at all, and the sensors cannot penetrate it.
"Hey."
Grandpa sighed and said, "This White Horse Gate is probably a scam."
"Grandpa, how do you say this?"
I really can't figure it out.
There is obviously only one door.
If you don't enter from here, where will Cao Cao's coffin be placed?
"There is an allusion to the White Horse Gate.
When Cao Cao was granted the title of King of Wei, his son Cao Zhi was in a hurry to celebrate outside the city.
He wanted to save time and passed through the White Horse Gate, but he was stopped by Xun Yu, Cao Cao's boss.
He refused to let him go, and the dispute went to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao was not angry or happy at the time, but just said with a fake smile: It's just the same door, what's the big deal?
"
"What happened next?"
I became interested and asked Grandpa.
"Cao Cao reprimanded and punished Cao Zhi in person, and comforted Xun Yu, saying that Cao Zhi was ignorant and asked Xun Yu not to be angry."
Grandpa sighed and said, "But later, Cao Cao had the White Horse Gate demolished and forced Xun Yu to death. ” "Ah, he turns out to be one of these villains."
I took a breath: "He is indeed a traitor in troubled times."
"Cao Cao had imperial ambitions, but he did not proclaim himself emperor because he wore a yoke around his neck."
"What shackles" "Hold the emperor to order the princes."
Grandpa sneered and said: "He went around to conquer in the name of working for the emperor.
His name was justifiable, and in this name, he won over many capable people who were interested in the Han Dynasty, even his own Many old subordinates were loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, and Xun Yu was one of them.
If he became emperor, many people would In turn, they will attack him for treason.
Not to mention other things, Liu Bei and Sun Quan are just waiting for him to give this excuse.
What a shrewd person he is, how can he not see this, and he also He doesn't want to lose his life, he is also a relatively pragmatic person, he has the real power of the emperor, so why bother to cause all kinds of trouble for a false reputation."
"That's right."
I nodded, then looked at the white horse door, and asked puzzledly: "Then what does he mean by having this white horse door in the tomb?
He couldn't be an emperor during his lifetime, but he wanted to be an emperor after his death.
Is this the White Horse Gate?"
"Cao Cao is a suspicious person, and he is also a scheming person.
I am afraid that this tomb was designed by himself a long time ago.
This door."
Grandpa also hesitated.
"Who cares about them, they've already come here.

You definitely can't go back like this.
You've passed the traps in front of me, so you won't be afraid of the ones behind you."
I said simply, and I didn't look back until I hit the wall.
"No."
Grandpa suddenly said, "There must be an entrance behind these three walls."
"Is there a secret door?
Where is the mechanism?"
I glanced at the three walls.
"The four elephant coffins above are the mechanism."
Grandpa said with certainty: "Xiaofan, go up and turn the four coffins again.
You will definitely be able to open the other three walls."
"Okay."
I walked to the lime, then jumped lightly and flew to the secret room on the upper floor.
The four coffins were still there, but when I looked at the White Tiger coffin, I found that there was a bloody figure on the side of the coffin. monster.
Yes, it’s the bloody corpse:
