Chapter 554: Female Officer

The mummy on the stone chair put his hands on the chair back, spread his legs, and leaned on the back of the chair. He looked leisurely and tilted his head to one side. This is what he looked like after death. He was of medium build and not very strong-framed.

He was thick, and he was wearing clothes and wrapped tightly.

"They are civilian clothes." Bai Yi was a little confused: "It's strange, why do civilians burn corpses here? Is there a plague?"

"Damn it, isn't it?" Lei Zi was surprised. Those who fight often encounter all kinds of strange things. Many people suddenly fall ill after fighting. Most of them are due to the tomb poison. The tomb poison

It may be a trap set up by a trap, or it may be a natural plague that remains attached to the person after death, thus affecting the person who rebelled against him.

Xiaoshan looked around the mummy, then said: "It's strange, why do I feel that he looks so painful?"

"No way." Lei Zi disagreed: "Look at his legs spread apart and his hands still resting here. He is obviously sitting in a very comfortable position, and he is facing the place where the corpse is burned. It is as if he is watching a play. How could he be in pain?

"

"Since it was so comfortable, why did he die here? Also, his feet were spread apart, but he kicked the ground so hard. You see, he made two small dimples on the ground."

The flashlight in Shan's hand was pointed at the ground, but no, there were small nests at the feet of the mummy.

Tang Sancheng nodded: "It's true. Although the ground is not paved with bricks and stones, it still takes a lot of force to squeeze out such a deep nest. Xiaoshan is right. It may be that he is in too much pain and his feet can't

Kick down as hard as you can to leave these two nests."

Lei Zi was speechless for a moment, and touched her chin to get up. At this time, Xiao Ning made a new discovery. She saw two large copper boxes placed in the southwest of the burned corpse. At least she had some experience in fighting upside down.

, was using a stone to verify whether there was a mechanism. After confirming that it was correct, she opened the lid lightly with gloves on. The things inside disappointed her: "Why are there so many clothes?"

It was full of clothes. Bai Yi walked over to take a look and said with certainty: "These are the clothes of the maids in the Qing Dynasty palace. They are the clothes of the bannermen, and judging from the colors and styles of these clothes, they are all genuine six-grade clothes."

The clothes worn by the female officials below are also worn by ordinary palace maids, and they are all girls."

"What a pity." Xiao Ning said regretfully: "Are these just girls of fifteen or sixteen years old?"

"Maybe even younger, there are quite a few who are thirteen or fourteen years old." Bai Yi sighed: "How come the girls in the palace were killed here, and their bodies were not left intact?"

"Who are these female officials?" Tang Sancheng asked.

"The names of the sixth rank in the Qing Dynasty were Baolin and Si Ji, the seventh rank had Yunu and Zhaoxun, the eighth rank had Cai Nu, and the ninth rank was Fengyi. The most pitiful ones were the ordinary palace maids, who were not classified into grades. Speaking of which, they were still

They are not as comfortable as the civilian girls outside the palace, and they are the ones who are usually bullied the most." After Bai Yi finished speaking, he got back to the topic: "Don't forget what we came here to do, there are no valuable weapons here, hurry up and find Tai Sui."

A word of reminder reminded everyone, and everyone recovered from the shock. They searched everywhere for Tai Sui, but where was the shadow of Tai Sui? The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Logically speaking, the most common among the seven things is Tai Sui, but this is it.

After a lot of trouble, I still can't find it.

The six people almost turned over the stones to look for them, but there was still nothing. Xiaoshan was not careful and bumped into the stone chair while walking. He was so strong that the stone chair shook with the collision, but the strange thing was,

The mummy on top didn't move very much. Tang Sancheng asked doubtfully: "That's wrong, why doesn't this mummy move much?"

He came closer and saw that there seemed to be a ring-shaped protrusion under the clothes of the mummy. Tang Sancheng did not dare to touch it in case it was stained with corpse fluid, so he picked up a sharp stone from the ground and picked up the mummy.

The clothes on his body and the scene under them startled Tang Sancheng: "The strange man has to move. It turns out that he is chained to the stone chair. Come and take a look!"

The iron chain locked the mummy firmly on the stone chair, preventing him from moving. Judging from the fact that the mummy is still tightly locked by the iron chain, the iron chain must have been embedded in the flesh. Bai Yi picked it up again

A stone pried open the mummy's mouth, and a burst of green gas immediately came out: "Get out of the way!"

Bai Yi woke up in time, and everyone else ducked away in time. The green gas filled the air and disappeared. "It's poison gas." Qi Xie said: "It seems that he was tied up first, and then forcefully drank poison and died. It was painful.

, but I can’t move, no wonder I have to rely on my feet to struggle.”

"Then his hands are still there. Why don't you think of anything? Damn, there are still people like this who sit and wait for death." As soon as Lei Zi finished speaking, Bai Yi turned over the shriveled hands of the mummy and pinched them carefully.

He pinched: "All the phalanges are broken, and these hands are useless. Even if they are free, there is no way to save themselves."

"It's so cruel. It's a pity that he is wearing civilian clothes and there is no way to know his identity." Xiao Ning felt horrified. If a person died in pain like this, how tortured it would be.

"There are all the clothes of female officials and palace maids. This person must have something to do with the Qing Palace." Bai Yi stared at the mummy again, always feeling that the mummy looked a bit awkward. What is the awkwardness about it? Bai Yi

Close your eyes and imagine that you are the mummy, being forcibly tied to the stone chair, forced to drink poison, struggling, and dying, then your head... your head will fall to one side, but this range is too great.

Bai Yi had an idea: "Do me a favor and move this stone chair away."

Everyone worked together to move the stone chair and the mummy away, and saw that there was indeed a mystery underneath the stone chair. Tang Sancheng was impressed: "How did you think of it?"

"It's normal for this person's head to hang to one side, but it's too far down, as if this person is desperately trying to stretch his head downwards, very hard, which makes me think about whether he wants to express something, or is he trying to express something.

There was something around here that he couldn't put down before he died, so I gave it a try." Bai Yi pointed to the stone slab under the stone chair: "I would like to know what made him think about it before he died.

.”

The stone slab was moved away, and what was underneath caught everyone's eyes. Chao beads, Chao beads! There were piles of Chao beads inside. Chao beads were a kind of necklace that the royal family admired around their necks. Bai Yi looked at these Chao beads, and they seemed to have some.

I had an epiphany: "The pearls on these Chaozhu are all Dongzhu. Dongzhu is actually a kind of pearl. In fact, the texture is not very good. It is produced in the lake. It is white in color and has poor transparency. However, because the output is small, it is also

Precious things, during the Qing Dynasty, the ancients divided pearls into two major series, northern and southern pearls, based on their origin. The northern pearls produced in the northeastern region were called eastern pearls. In the Qing Dynasty's crown and dress system, only the emperor, the empress dowager, and the empress wore eastern pearls.

The number of east beads embedded in court beads, hat tops, etc. is also strictly limited according to the level of prince, county king, and Baylor."

"To put it simply, the court beads here are worn by the emperor, empress dowager, and empress?" Xiao Ning concluded.

"That's right." Bai Yi reached out and picked up the beads, and Lei Zi couldn't wait to put them in his bag. It wasn't a tomb, but there were so many artifacts. This was such a surprise. Lei Zi ignored the unpleasant smell here.

: "Damn, we're so lucky, now we just have to find Tai Sui and we're done."

After bringing up the beads, everyone was stunned by what was underneath. There was a huge space under the stone slab. In addition to the beads, there were also agates and jade!!
