Chapter 1,160 The identity of the owner of the ancient tomb (1)
"Damn, you're cheating a corpse?!"
Zhuang Rui was so surprised that he almost jumped up from the ground. Anyone who suddenly saw this situation in a thousand-year-old tomb would probably have such a reaction, even more intense than Zhuang Rui.
"It's still a hundred or two hundred meters deep. Even if he becomes a ghost, he can't escape..."
Zhuang Rui encouraged himself in a low voice with a voice that only he could hear. After a long while, he gathered up the courage to look at the head whose muscles had not yet rotted.
After careful observation, Zhuang Rui discovered that there was a big difference between this undecomposed head and the Egyptian mummies.
A mummy refers to a dry, incorruptible corpse. When the Egyptians made mummies, they first used an iron hook to take out part of the brain from the dead corpse's nostrils, and injected some medicine into the brain to clean it.
After completing the above steps, use a sharp stone knife to cut an incision on the flank, take out the internal organs completely, clean the abdomen, fill it with coconut wine and mashed spices, and then sew it up as it was before.
.
After this step is completed, the body is placed in sodium chloride powder for 40 days, then the body is washed, wrapped in linen bandages from head to toe, and then coated with glue that is usually used in Egypt instead of ordinary glue.
Then the corpse was given to relatives, who put it in a special human-shaped wooden box and kept it in the tomb, placed upright against the wall.
This expensive method of disposing of corpses is generally used by pharaohs, dignitaries and rich men. The method of making mummies for poor people is much simpler. Clean the abdomen with laxatives, and then soak the corpse in sodium chloride powder for 40 days.
, after taking it out, let the wind dry it and bury it in a dry sand dune.
However, no matter which method is used to make the mummified corpse, it will always appear dry and thin. Although the muscles will not rot, they will cling to the bones, making it impossible to recognize their appearance in life.
But the head Zhuang Rui saw now was very different from the Egyptian mummy.
The most intuitive manifestation is that the facial muscles of this head have not completely atrophied. There is still a faint trace of redness on the face. The eyes are closed tightly, as if he is sleeping soundly.
This man was in his sixties, and his face was as big as a full moon. Although his eyes were closed, he had an indescribable majesty.
Even in his sleep, this person showed a temperament that made people want to worship him. It was hard for Zhuang Rui to imagine what kind of pressure this person would bring to people if he opened his eyes.
"Is this... dead or alive?"
Although he knew clearly that this was a dead person, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Many mummies have been unearthed in China, such as the famous Loulan beauty in our country, which Zhuang Rui has seen with his own eyes. However, the so-called "beauties" are also withered and thin, with hideous and ugly faces. Those who are timid will do evil after seeing them.
dreamy.
"Huh? What is this?"
Zhuang Rui's attention had just been attracted by the head itself. As soon as his mind was distracted, he suddenly discovered that there was a completely transparent crystal coffin inside the coffin.
And this old man wearing Mongolian clothes was lying in the crystal coffin. There was a colorless and transparent liquid inside, soaking the whole body in it.
The jade seal that exudes rich purple-gold spiritual energy, as well as many objects filled with strong spiritual energy, are placed in coffins other than the crystal coffin. This is because the coffin is extremely transparent and is based on the size of the corpse inside.
It was made, so Zhuang Rui didn't discover it at the first time.
"Grandma, what kind of technology is this? It seems that technological progress cannot erase the wisdom of the ancients..."
Zhuang Rui tried to use spiritual energy to analyze the liquid, but found that the liquid was not only colorless, but did not even have a trace of spiritual energy. He did not know what the ingredients were. How could the body be kept intact for thousands of years?
Mummies also exist in modern times. For example, the body of Lenin, the leader of the former Soviet Union, is one of the best-preserved mummies in the world.
After Lenin's death in 1924, he remained in a frozen state. Soviet scientists preserved his body in a secret laboratory under Lenin's tomb. They removed his internal organs and immersed his entire body in formalin.
The scientists responsible for the preservation work made an incision in Lenin's body to allow the formalin to penetrate into the body faster. A few weeks later, Comrade Lenin gained immortality.
It's just that this method of preserving corpses requires repair and maintenance every once in a while, and a once-and-for-all method like placing it in a crystal coffin in a tomb is obviously superior to modern technology.
…
"Everyone is dead, and they are still holding on to the treasure. Don't give me a chance, or I will dig you out..."
After Zhuang Rui analyzed the reason why the corpse did not rot, his attention was attracted to the jade seal next to the crystal coffin. The aura of this thing was so powerful that Zhuang Rui did not even bother to judge the identity of the tomb owner at this moment.
"Sure enough, there is gold inlaid with jade..."
Although he had already determined the origin of this jade seal in his mind, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but get excited after seeing the traces of gold inlaid on the corner of the jade seal.
Forced to suppress the shock in his heart, Zhuang Rui turned his eyes to the shoulder of Yuxi. The legendary "The Great Wei received the Seal of the Han Dynasty" and the words "Destiny Stone" on the side were clearly visible.
Combined with the rich purple aura of the jade seal itself, Zhuang Rui has no doubt in his mind at this moment. This... is the Heshi Bi that has disappeared for thousands of years... the national jade seal!
Although today, the imperial system has been outlawed, and the so-called jade seal has lost its own meaning, but at least it is a symbol, a symbol that affects hundreds of millions of people in China, and is a symbol of the historical development of ancient Chinese civilization.
A testimony of!
"What a waste of nature, what a waste of nature!"
Although Zhuang Rui's identity has begun to transform from a businessman to a scholar in recent years, he still retains some of the merchant's special craftsmanship. After getting excited, he unconsciously weighed the value of this true "national jade seal" in his heart.
Just after repeated considerations in his mind, Zhuang Rui could not set a price for the "Jade Seal of the Nation". In terms of jade quality alone, He's Bi represents the pinnacle of Chinese jade culture. Just such a large piece of flawless jade,
Its value is over hundreds of millions.
This is just the value of the material, and the experience of dozens of emperors flocking to it and not putting it down, coupled with the great historical significance and symbol of royal power of the imperial seal itself, Zhuang Rui feels that he should pay 50 billion RMB for it. It is estimated that
There will be rich people from China who sell iron to buy it.
You must know that if this national jade seal were placed in ancient times, whoever got it would be destined by destiny and could fool the people of the whole country into rebelling. Its importance is self-evident.
Even today, when royal power has long since declined, it is of extraordinary significance.
You can imagine that the rich people who got this imperial seal stamped such a seal on their daily official documents. It was definitely a very honorable thing. In ancient times, this kind of treatment could only be enjoyed by the emperor, and all emperors since the Song Dynasty had it.
No chance.
Thinking of this, classmate Zhuang Rui showed a silly smile on his face. Although the world has been cursing the feudal system for being bad, how many men have never dreamed of being an emperor? At least the three thousand beauties in the harem are definitely better than any other.
What every man dreams of.
Of course, these are all just Zhuang Rui's imagination. Not to mention that he can't unearth this tomb now. Even if it is unearthed, everything in it belongs to the state and has nothing to do with his classmate Zhuang Rui.
.
If Zhuang Rui could borrow a few pieces to display in his museum, he would be so happy that he could laugh out of his dreams. As for the idea of taking them as his own, he would never dare to have them.
…
"Who is this person?"
After having a sweet dream with his eyes open, Zhuang Rui slowly eliminated all the assumptions in his mind and focused on the tomb itself. If he wanted to interpret this Mongolian tomb, he must first find out the identity of the owner of the tomb.
Zhuang Rui is now certain that this person must be a Mongolian emperor, and he is relatively early. As a result, it seems that there are not too many options to choose from.
Temujin, the early Great Khan of Mongolia, lived to be sixty-six years old. After him, Ogodei lived to be fifty-five years old, Meng Ge lived to be fifty-one years old, and Kublai Khan lived to be seventy-nine years old.
, judging from his age, this person must be Temujin or Ogodei.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Kublai Khan was well-maintained or had a tender face. The difference between his seventy-nine-year-old appearance and his fifty-sixty-year-old appearance may not be that big.
But at this moment, the scale in Zhuang Rui's heart is tilted towards Wo Kuotai. The reason is very simple. Wo Kuotai died in the second year after the Mongols destroyed the Jin Dynasty, and the traditional jade seal that was plundered by the Jin Dynasty should also be
At this time, it fell into the hands of Wokuotai.
At this time, Genghis Khan, Ogedai's father, had been dead for eight years. Unless it was kept secret, this imperial seal would never appear in Genghis Khan's tomb.
Just looking at the resolute face in the coffin, Zhuang Rui is more willing to believe that this is Temujin, the founding Khan of Mongolia, or Kublai Khan, the first emperor of the Yuan Dynasty. The legendary Ogodei is a good old man and should not grow up.
This bastard looks so angry, right?
"Hey, why are you wasting your energy? Why don't you just look for an epitaph?" Zhuang Rui was amused by his tangled mood.
In various tombs, there are usually some records that reflect the identity of the owner. Some of the owner's life stories are prominently displayed on the walls of the tomb, or the tomb must have a stele.
Of course, there are also some ancient tombs without any text introducing the owner, so we have to look for clues from the funerary objects in the tomb.
