Chapter 1057 Bone Pottery
Everyone was very nervous because this was the moon after all. If something happened, even if only their space suits were damaged, they might die here.
After arriving on the moon, they used radar to search, but found nothing unusual.
Zhou Wen did not dare to be careless and kept turning on the Di Ting. However, here, the ability of Di Ting seemed to be affected and was not as useful as on Earth.
Everyone was nervous as they headed towards the base.
With a mythical companion pet mount, the traveling speed is quite fast. The mighty King Kong Bull quickly adapted to the gravity environment here and ran no slower than when it was on Earth.
Shen Yuchi also summoned a mythical companion pet, a giant rhinoceros, which was more than enough for the other people to sit on.
Although they had all seen photos, they were still shocked by the scene when they arrived at the base.
The base, which was hundreds of meters long, was trampled into a pit by some unknown creature. Most of the buildings were flattened, and even if they were not flattened, they were trampled into the rock layer.
There's no need to look, there's no way there's anyone alive inside.
However, no extra-dimensional creatures were found around. After communicating with everyone, Shen Yuchi planned to go directly to the Yuanjing Mine, where the tree stump was dug, to take a look.
When we arrived at the location of the Yuanjing Mine, we also did not find any extra-dimensional creatures, nor did we see the astronauts who were there before.
There are a lot of Yuanjing ores scattered on the ground, and in the excavated mines, there are also a lot of Yuanjings shining with charming luster.
"It's gone!" said an inspector named Wang Qiuyuan, staring into the mine.
Everyone knew what he was talking about. The big pit was where the tree stump was. Because its roots were widely distributed, a very large pit was dug out.
But now there is only a big pit here, and the tree stump is gone.
Everyone felt disappointed. Without the petals and the tree stump, their trip was in vain.
"What is that?" Zhou Wen saw something strange and looked at a corner of the mine.
Everyone followed Zhou Wen's gaze and saw that there seemed to be something in a large hole in the mine.
But their eyesight was not as strong as Zhou Wen's, so they couldn't see clearly what it was.
"Zhou Wen, can you see clearly what it is?" Shen Yuchi looked at Zhou Wen and asked.
"It looks like a person sitting there with his back to us, but it doesn't look like a person." Zhou Wen organized his words and said.
"What do you mean by looking like a human, yet not looking like a human?" Wei Ge asked.
"I can't see the front, but the back looks like a human, and he's wearing ordinary human clothes. But this is the moon, how could a human sit here wearing ordinary clothes?" Zhou Wen said.
Everyone used the telescope function of the helmet and took another closer look. Sure enough, they saw a figure sitting there with its back to the cave entrance. They could only see the back and could not be sure whether it was a real person.
"Everyone step back and let the companion pet go over and take a look first." Shen Yu also ordered his companion pet to move closer.
Everyone felt a little nervous as they watched the rhino slowly approach, but the human figure there remained motionless.
The rhino walked until it reached the side of the figure, but the figure still did not move.
Shen Yuchi frowned slightly and did not let the rhino attack: "Wang Qiuyuan, go over and take a look."
Wang Qiuyuan responded and looked over there cautiously as he approached.
"Commander, it's a person, a dead person, but there's something strange here..." Wang Qiuyuan said in surprise after walking around the person sitting there.
It can be heard that he seemed very surprised, as if he had discovered something incredible.
"What's strange?" Shen Yuchi asked immediately.
"Fire, there is a fire here." Wang Qiuyuan's voice came from the communicator.
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. It was impossible to ignite a fire on the moon, and Wang Qiyuan actually said there was fire there. It was indeed very strange.
"Do you know that person? Is he the astronaut from before?" Shen Yuchi asked.
"I don't know him. He shouldn't be a former astronaut. He looks a bit weird, and his clothes are weird too..." Wang Qiuyuan seemed unable to describe him accurately.
"Watch the surroundings and report any situation immediately. We'll be there soon." Shen Yuchi led everyone there.
Zhou Wen and others were very careful. There was actually a person sitting here without wearing a space suit. This was very strange and gave people a very bad feeling.
Everyone came into the cave carefully and saw that it was indeed a dead man. His flesh and blood had dried up, and his face and clothes were covered with dust. It looked like he had been dead for a long time.
He looks like someone from the East District, but his cheekbones are particularly high and his eye sockets are deep, which makes him different from someone from the East District.
His hair was surprisingly intact. Under the dust, you could still see that his hair should be black.
The clothes he was wearing were of a strange shape, like a robe with long and wide sleeves, unlike modern clothing.
These are not too strange. The strangest thing is that in front of the man's toes, there is a small white jar with a diameter of no more than 20 centimeters.
Inside the small white jar, there was a small flame burning, as if it was lit by a lighter.
Although the flame is very small, it makes people feel very magical. This is the moon, where there is no oxygen at all, but this small flame is burning steadily, which in itself is very unusual.
Everyone's eyes turned to Shen Yuchi. He was the leader of this operation. Now that such a strange thing had happened, it was naturally him who had to make the decision.
"Don't touch him. Explore the area first to see if there are any other discoveries." Shen Yuchi said as he looked at the small white jar.
"Director Shen, did you notice anything wrong?" Zhou Wen asked Shen Yuchi.
Shen Yuchi said, "Have you ever seen this kind of jar?"
"No." Zhou Wen had already looked carefully at it, but couldn't tell what the jar was made of.
It looks a bit like jade, but not as delicate. It is said to be a pottery, but it has a more moist texture.
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be bone pottery, a special kind of pottery." Shen Yuchi said.
"Are bone pottery and bone china the same thing?" Zhou Wen asked with a frown.
He had heard of bone china. Because bone powder was added, the fired porcelain could be thinner, harder, and more beautiful.
"They're not the same. Bone china is made from bone meal, but bone pottery isn't made from bone meal. It's actually made from the bones and blood of corpses. It's also called blood pottery or corpse pottery." Shen Yuchi continued with a serious expression, "I once saw an expert's collection, and he had bone pottery in his collection. He said bone pottery was generally used for sacrificial ceremonies in ancient times, and most people don't have the opportunity to come into contact with it."
good evening.
