Chapter 1531 The Legend of the Copper Mask
The exhibition venue is the largest museum in Mincheng. When Jiang Yi passed by, the professor Xie who contacted her before was explaining some important objects in Chen Yin to other people.

Jiang Yi listened for a while and went to see other exhibits with Yin Xueting.

In addition to these, there are also some antique collections, which look very old, but she doesn't know much about these things.

Looking at the past, she suddenly saw a strange copper mask in a separate showcase.

It looks a bit like the slightly abstract mask used in some religious sacrifices. The slender facial features are placed on the long and big mask, which is a bit weird, especially the upturned corners of the eyes. People mistake it for laughing.

"What is this?" Jiang Yi turned around and asked Yin Xueting.

Yin Xueting was also looking at this mask, "Human faces are usually related to religion and belief. I have never seen this kind of human face statues before."

"This is a spirit summoner in the belief of a minority in Southern Province." A voice sounded behind them.

A young man dressed as an elite in the workplace handed out a business card, "Hello, both of you, I am the secretary invited by Mr. Jin, the holder of this mask."

Jiang Yi looked at the business scope behind the business card, "Part-time job selling antiques?"

The young man smiled, "My business scope is relatively wide, whether it is antique collections or modern handicrafts, of course the main thing is the identification of antiquities."

After introducing himself a few words, he shifted the topic to the copper mask.

"I see that the two of you are very interested in this copper mask, how about I tell you about it?" The young man politely expressed his subtext to attract customers.

Jiang Yi nodded and put his business card in his pocket.

"This copper mask has a history of 200 years." The young man said, "200 years ago, there was a time when religion was prevalent in Southern Province, and one of the Gu masters who manipulated the famous soul-absorbing Gu insect created a special The religion of this religion, based on the concept of rewarding good and punishing evil, dealt with many guilty people by means of Gu insects, and gained fame at that time."

"After the sect grew stronger, the members of the sect gradually gained real power and began to exercise the power of life and death."

Jiang Yi frowned slightly. From the formal point of view, this kind of situation is a bit like the concept of clan. In the past, the clan could also override the law and adjudicate the crimes of members of the clan. Clans are united by surnames. Maybe several villages in one village have the same surname, and there are hundreds of people in one village. The local government dare not easily move these people.

There are quite a few villages in the southern province, and they are very united within the village. If something happens to one person, the same village may fight together. This is actually a way of self-protection. After all, there are many people and strength, and everyone Also rely on this method to protect yourself.

But in the peaceful era of the rule of law, this kind of existence is extremely unreasonable, and it may still be a thorn in the side of trouble.

"They are not satisfied with secretly punishing the guilty, but openly arresting and punishing the guilty, and the method of execution is the Gu worm." The young man continued: "Once the soul-absorbing Gu worm is put into the human body, it will not be seen from the outside. There are no injuries, but people will become sluggish in a short period of time, like a walking dead, and then die, like a sudden illness."
