Chapter 133

I have noticed before that the bottom of the small copper tripod is carved with some complicated patterns, but because of the copper rust, I didn't care about it at that time.

After careful observation at this time, I found that it was indeed an ancient Chinese character, but I don't know exactly what it was.

The old witch doctor said with a smile, "this is a Zhou character."

Zhou character?

Why engrave a Zhou character at the bottom of a copper tripod?

The old witch doctor continued, "do you know King Zhou? He was the last king of the Shang Dynasty, and also a famous tyrant in history. He invented cannons, eye digging, heart digging and other torture. At that time, he killed boyikao, the son of Xibo houjichang, and then chopped boyikao into meat sauce and boiled it into broth with this tripod... "

After listening to this, I was shocked for a while. This little copper tripod is probably the most ancient thing I have ever touched? Actually involved in the Shang Dynasty.

The story of Jichang Shizi is almost a household name among the people.

It is said that King Zhou was afraid of the rebellion of Hou Jichang of Xibo, so he was imprisoned. At the same time, Boyi Kao, the son of Jichang, was taken hostage and played music in the court.

In order to insult Jichang, King Zhou even found a big copper Ding to boil Boyi Kao alive, and gave the cooked meat soup to Jichang to eat. Because he heard that Jichang was a saint, and the saint would not eat his own son's flesh.

Who knows that Jichang endured humiliation and finally ate that bowl of meat soup! Since then, he won the trust of King Zhou and was soon released to China.

Before Ji Chang left, King Zhou deliberately invited him to visit the big copper tripod that was used to cook boyikao. Boyikao's body had been chopped, but his head was in the small copper tripod beside him.

Jichang naturally knows that the cooked head is actually his own son

However, he didn't go mad, instead, he asked King Zhou to give himself the small copper tripod with his son's head in full bloom. After going back, Jichang cried for three days and nights holding the small copper Ding, swore to avenge his son, and engraved the name of Zhou at the bottom of the copper Ding!

Indeed, several years later, the state of Jichang overthrew the Shang Dynasty, and King Zhou was forced to set himself on fire.

Looking at this small copper tripod, I only feel frightened.

There is such a history of inhumanity and inhumanity behind a small copper tripod.

No wonder last night, this small copper tripod always ran to the head of Pockmarked Li. Was it not to boil Pockmarked Li's head?

The white eyebrow Zen master couldn't hear the tyranny. He said two Amitabha sentences and went out.

ChuChu is also stunned. After all, ghost doctor is a savior, but this bronze tripod is a murderer.

Although she grew up in the bad environment of Baisha village, no matter how bad the villagers are, they are all small brawls among their neighbors. Such dehumanizing things are never done. So listen to the old witch doctor. His eyes are red and his teeth are gnashing.

Since the other side can find such a copper tripod to make Yin things, he must have made some efforts!

If the bronze tripod is handed over to the state, it is definitely a first-class national treasure.

Even if it's in the street, it can sell for a good price.

However, I didn't intend to sell the copper tripod. After all, it's too powerful. In case it falls into the hands of someone with an improper mind, I'm afraid it will cause endless future troubles.

The old witch doctor put down the small copper tripod and went out with the delicacy, saying that he was going to buy something.

I was afraid that they would be in danger when they went out, so I asked to go with them and take care of each other somehow.

But the old witch doctor told me, let me just look at Pockmarked Li in the shop, never let anyone near! In case Pockmarked Li was moved again, she would have no skill.

I nodded, then put my mind away, and kept guarding beside Pockmarked Li.

The old witch doctor's worry is not totally unreasonable. I found several strange faces prowling in front of the antique shop. I want to catch them and have a good trial, but there is no evidence. If we make a big deal of trouble and alarm the police, we can imagine the end of Pockmarked Li tonight

I had to hold back my anger and keep my eyes on Pockmarked Li for a moment.

The sky soon darkened and everyone gathered in the room. I took a look at the old witch doctor and found that he only bought a red rope and a rooster.

I looked at the old witch doctor inexplicably. I didn't understand what was wrong with her? Another look at the delicate, delicate expression is very worried.

Must be the old witch doctor said something not optimistic to Chu Chu?

What the old witch doctor said to Chu Chu, I have no way to know and no mind to ask. Since the old witch doctor didn't want to tell us, why should I ask? Isn't that annoying?

After supper, the old witch doctor began to act. First, the cock's crow was cut off with a knife, and immediately the blood dripped down the chicken's head, and the cock struggled painfully.

Then the old witch doctor asked me to dig a hole in the yard, tie the cock's legs with a red rope to make the cock unable to move, and then bury it in the soil.I took a breath to cool myself. I don't understand why the old witch doctor did this? I thought she was going to use live chickens.

But I buried the rooster in the backyard. I was afraid that the rooster would not die. The old witch doctor also stepped on the soil strictly and confirmed that there was no movement. Then I went back to the room and put the crow in one of the small copper tripods.

Suddenly I was a little confused. Didn't Hou Jichang bring back a small copper tripod?

Why are there two people in front of us now? What's the matter with the other small copper Ding?

I think the old witch doctor has been taking care of Pockmarked Li, so I didn't ask more. Just at the right time, with a try attitude, I asked Chu Chu.

"How can you react so slowly?" ChuChu smiled? It's only now that I can see that I'm tired... "

I can't help but answer, not slow brain, is too worried about Pockmarked Li so didn't think too much.

Chu told me that another small copper tripod, in fact, was made by the descendants to imitate King Zhou's practice and reduce the proportion of the big copper tripod that cooked meat, so as to make a pair.

I was dumbfounded.

Chu Chu and I are OK. We are guarding at the door.

T-shirt man, white eyebrow Zen master and old witch doctor sat next to Pockmarked Li respectively, forming a triangle.

So I sat until eleven o'clock in the evening, and suddenly I heard a cock crowing in the yard.

I looked into the yard at once and was scared out of my wits!

I saw the big rooster that I buried under the soil, but now he is alive again. He is standing on the mound where he buried. His head is still bleeding and his eyes are soaked.

It's bloodshot eyes, looking at me, as if full of endless hatred

I was a little scared and turned around.

The old witch doctor suddenly said, "here you are!".

Suddenly all three people in the room were sitting upright, squinting their eyes, motionless and meditating.

I saw the living rooster, the throat of the continuous "cackle" sound, along the backyard leisurely began to walk. When I got to the door, I suddenly stopped, fluttered my wings, and jumped to my shoulder.

I was so scared that I had to stretch out my hand to shoot the rooster and drive him away.

But she immediately stopped me: "don't move!"

I had to stop moving the rooster, but I was soaked in sweat all over.

What does this big cock do? It's clearly dead. What strength is supporting it?

I watched the old witch doctor trembling, hoping that the old witch doctor could do something as soon as possible to clean up the rooster.
