"Fuck!"
"What are you doing? Why are you so big?" Dou Sprout couldn't help shouting.
Xiaomi put the big box covered with mud on the ground and whispered: "I don't know either."
"Look, look, look."
After cleaning off the black mud on the box, the true nature of this thing was gradually revealed.
It is about thirty centimeters long and twenty centimeters wide. The surface of the material looks like opaque glass, with red and blue colors. It is similar to a box with a heaven and earth cover. There is a big hole on the back of the box. The big hole is composed of two semicircles on the upper and lower sides.
The box lid button is a money turtle lying on the ground with four legs, and there are sculptures of cows, sheep, pigs, dogs and four animals in the corners. It is in good preservation condition and the workmanship is very complicated.
I couldn't recognize what the box was at first, so I slowly pried it open along the cracks with a knife, and found that the box was filled with black mud. When I poured out the mud, I found a few human teeth scattered in the mud.
, the teeth are smaller than those of normal adults and should belong to children.
Uncle Liao suddenly said thoughtfully: "Here, is this box made of lead glass?"
"Shell glass?"
"Uncle Liao, are you talking about Liuli?"
Uncle Liao took a deep breath and said solemnly that this seemed to be "Wenming, the glazed Wenming of the Ming Dynasty."
Looking at my puzzled expression, Uncle Liao said, "Have you never heard of Yu Wenming?"
I thought about it and said I didn’t know, I had never heard of it.
There seems to be one "Wen Ming" in the National Museum of China, and there seems to be one in the Shaanxi Museum. It opened my eyes. According to Liao Bo's introduction, Wen Ming is a kind of burial tool invented in the Han Dynasty. I looked through historical materials and only mentioned one sentence.
It is said that the Han Emperor once rewarded Huo Guang with a high-grade coffin burial tool. This special burial tool was called Wenming, and it was specially used to place the heads of dead people.
Very few people have seen this kind of burial equipment. I did some research and thought this is how it should be used.
Isn't there two semicircular holes at the back of the glazed box? After a person lies in the coffin, his or her neck is drilled into the box along the holes, and then the lid is placed on top. From a distance, the person's head and face are hidden.
In the box.
Why do we do this? What is the role of Wen Ming? Because the information is too rare.
There are even fewer people. I can only guess and think there should be two possibilities.
First, like the gold-threaded jade clothes and the gold-threaded mat, except for its antiseptic effect, it is most likely to express the noble status and high status of the owner of the tomb.
Second, the ancients believed that there is a heavenly soul. After death, the heavenly soul will not disappear in the short term, but will live in the Tianling Cap, that is, in the head. The homophony of Wen Ming is "Wen Ming" and Ming represents death. This box is
For the heavenly soul to live in.
In any case, this item is very rare and should be very valuable. At the time, I had no idea how much it could be sold for, because there was no specific reference price.
Think about it this way.
This is a small coffin. If the body of a child is buried in the coffin, the child's undeveloped bones are fragile and difficult to preserve. Over hundreds of years, the skull that should have been in the box has weathered and disappeared, leaving only a few teeth.
.
"Give it to me," Dou Sprout took the box over with a smile and began to praise Xiaomi for his good luck.
Everyone was in a much better mood after a big piece of cargo came out. Dou Sprout made another suggestion, saying that we couldn't fish it out like this, we had to lift the coffin and dump out all the water.
I said that was fine, and prepared to ask Brother Yu to carry the coffin and pour water.
"who!"
As soon as my hand touched the coffin, I suddenly heard movement outside, which seemed to come from the corridor.
"Did you hear that?" I asked the bean sprouts beside me.
Dou Sprout's sullen face suddenly smiled.
"Did you hear all this? I secretly farted silently just now, I'm sorry."
"No, there is movement." Xiaoxuan looked around nervously.
"Give me the flashlight." Brother Yu frowned and asked for the flashlight, then went out to check the situation.
"Let's go together, the others stay here and wait." I turned to tell everyone.
Brother Yu comes out
After arriving, he deliberately turned off the flashlight and we walked along the wall. He whispered to me not to act rashly and to follow his instructions if anything happened.
When I touched the wall and came out of the main tomb chamber, I saw no one, but I smelled a smell of smoke at that time.
Brother Yu suddenly turned on the flashlight and took a photo forward.
I saw thick smoke rising from the corridor in the southwest corner of the brick wall. The smoke was getting bigger and bigger, and it was starting to choke my throat.
"what's the situation!"
"Where's the smoke coming from?" I was startled and pointed at the smoking corridor and shouted.
"Cough! Cough!" Within a few minutes, I was choked and coughing.
The thick smoke had spread to the main tomb chamber, and everyone ran out in a panic. They were frightened when they saw the situation. Where did the smoke come from?
"Get your things and go out first!"
Dou Sprout put the funerary objects that he had fished out and put them on his back and said, run! Someone is out there trying to smoke us to death!
There was thick smoke, so we covered our mouths with our clothes, got into the corridor one by one, and crawled out anxiously. Everyone kept coughing, and Xiaoxuan followed me, choking to the point where tears flowed out of her eyes.
The smoke got bigger and bigger as I got closer to the exit. I turned on the flashlight and saw a firelight at the entrance of the corridor. A figure squatted aside, covering his nose, and stabbing the fire with a wooden stick to light the fire.
This man noticed that we had all come out. He immediately took a long stick and stabbed it in. The end of the stick was sharpened to a point.
"Your mother! Cough!"
I choked and coughed, and yelled: What the hell are you doing!"
The stick was stabbed with great force. I was at the front of the team and couldn't get out! I was stabbed so hard that I kept retreating.
This man was trying to drive us back like he was driving ducks with a bamboo pole. Due to the high tension and the smoke, I couldn't see his face clearly.
If you can't get out again, you'll choke to death on the cigarette!
I got mad, saw an opportunity, grabbed the stick, and pulled it back with all my strength!
When the other party saw me grabbing the stick, he probably panicked and started to poke even harder.
In the chaos, he stabbed me in the shoulder with a stick.
My shoulder hurts so much that it feels like my bones are about to fall apart.
"Woof!"
"Woof!"
Suddenly, a dog barked outside the corridor, yelling crazily at us.
"Got a dog?"
"It's that ratio!"
At this time, Douyazai behind me shouted: "It's the Bi who almost stabbed Xiaoxuan to death!"
As soon as Dou Yazai finished speaking, I saw a big dog coming out of the corridor exit. The man let the dog in and bit us!
"Back off!"
"Back off!"
In such a narrow corridor, no matter how fast a person moves, he is not as fast as a dog. The big dog bit my arm and refused to let go. My left arm was instantly bitten and it bled a lot.
"Mineko!"
"Yunfeng!"
"Brother Feng!" Xiaoxuan, Xiaomi and Douyazai shouted loudly.
"Kill you and me!"
With red eyes, I strangled the dog's neck with my right hand, trying to strangle the beast to death.
Brother Yu shouted loudly and wanted to come over to help, but the corridor was too narrow. He was walking at the back, with several people from Xiaoxuan and Xiaomi in between, and he couldn't get through at all!
Many dogs would not let go after biting them. I screamed and strangled the dog's neck hard. I reached out and touched the knife on the back of my waist. Then I took out the knife and stabbed it hard! It hit the dog's neck and the dog's blood spurted out.
All over the face.
The beast let out a scream and gradually loosened its grip on my arm.
Seeing that my dog was dying, the man outside the corridor suddenly climbed in and continued to stab me with the head of a stick anxiously.
"knife!"
"Use your knife!" Brother Yu yelled at me anxiously from behind.
My upper body was covered in blood, including my own blood and dog's blood, and I couldn't stop panting.
suddenly.
The man's feet slipped while holding the stick, as if something grabbed his feet behind him, and he was dragged out!
Disappeared in an instant!
