The wind and snow made the Eight Banners disciples carrying the coffin stagger and move unsteadily. Then, suddenly a strong wind came with snowflakes all over the sky, hitting the faces of the two people carrying the coffin at the front.
Both of them felt severe pain in their eyes and could not see anything. As a result, the heavy coffin could not remain stable. It fell to the ground with a crash and turned over again.
It took a few seconds to stop. Strangely enough, the coffin lid, which had been nailed, actually fell during the rolling process, causing Ling Ruo who was lying inside to flip out and lie on the snow. Ba Qi, who was blown by the snowstorm, was in an awkward state.
The disciples only knew that the coffin landed on the ground, but they did not know that Ling Ruo turned out of the coffin, and they did not notice that Ling Ruo's chest began to rise and fall slightly at this time.
They didn't pay attention, but it didn't mean that others didn't pay attention either. Not far from the Eight Banners disciples, a group of people were also struggling to withstand the sudden snowstorm.
One of them said with Feng Xue on his back: "Master, it seems like something rolled out of the coffin. It should be the body contained inside."
The man called the master nodded and said, "Let's go and have a look."
"Yes." Although the wind and snow were so strong, the man did not hesitate at all when faced with the order. Together with several other people, he protected him and walked forward until he came to the coffin.
The man took a look at the "corpse" in the wind and snow. When he was about to leave, he accidentally discovered that the face of the corpse looked familiar. After pondering for a moment, he finally remembered that she was actually dead...
The man shook his head, and when he was about to leave, he accidentally noticed that her eyelids moved. He thought it was because of his own eyesight, but when he looked carefully, he found that she was really moving. In other words, this woman was not dead. What happened?
What's going on? Why should I be buried in a coffin if I'm not dead?
"Master, we have to find a place to take shelter from the wind and snow quickly. Otherwise, if it blows like this, we will be buried." The person who just spoke saw that the man had been squatting next to the body without moving, and saw that the wind and snow were getting worse.
Lai Da Da quickly stepped forward to persuade him.
The man nodded, stood up and left, then stopped after taking a few steps and said: "Batu, take this man away on your back."
Batu was startled and said quickly: "Master, that's just a corpse. What's she doing on your back? And I just saw Yijia carrying the coffin from a distance. I'm afraid that this person had a high status in life and stole it rashly.
I'm afraid there will be trouble with her body."
"I asked you to carry it on your back. Why are you talking so much? The wind and snow are still strong now and they don't see us. Leave quickly!" Under the man's scolding, Batu could only carry the body on his back.
Leaving with difficulty in the wind and snow.
The blizzard lasted for more than half an hour before it stopped. During this half hour, the snow accumulated more than a foot thick, completely burying people's knees in it.
"Bah! Bah!" A disciple of the Eight Banners spat out the cold snow water in his mouth and said: "What the hell is this weather? A blizzard suddenly blew up. This is the first time I have encountered it in all my years in the capital."
The other one brushed the snow off his body and stood up and said, "Isn't that right? Just now I was really worried that if it kept blowing, we would all be buried in it."
The person in front who seemed to be the leader said: "Okay, Tunduo, Ur, you two, stop talking so much. Since the snow has stopped, let's go to the imperial mausoleum quickly. Don't miss Empress Xiaoshengxian's entry into the imperial mausoleum."
hour."
When talking about this, Tunduo said quickly: "Master Doro, because of the snowstorm just now, I couldn't lift the coffin securely. When the coffin landed on the ground, I saw that the lid of the coffin had been opened. Will I be filial to Empress Shengxian?"
…”
Doro also saw this scene at that time, but his heart was also strangely tight. The lid of the coffin was obviously nailed, so how could it be opened again when it hit the ground? It was really strange and tight.
"Okay, don't say so much, hurry up and lift the coffin again." Following Doro's words, everyone turned their heads over and turned the coffin over together. What shocked them was that there was no Xiao Shengxian inside.
The queen's corpse and the gold, silver and jewelry used for burial in the coffin were everywhere. At a glance, there was no trace of the corpse in the vast snow.
Doro was still calm and said: "I think during the blizzard just now, the heavy snow buried the body of Queen Xiaoshengxian. Quickly push the snow aside to look for it. Be careful when searching, don't hurt Xiaosheng."
Queen Xian."
Tunduo and others quickly agreed and searched separately. However, as the snow was turned up piece by piece, their hearts continued to sink. After searching within a three-mile radius, everyone's hearts sank.
At the bottom of the valley, because they have never been able to find the body of Queen Xiaoshengxian.
Doro gritted his teeth and ordered them to expand the search area to a radius of five miles, but the result was still the same, nothing was found.
Ur kicked the snow on the ground hard and said in annoyance: "Damn it, it was clearly here, how could it be missing? Could it be that its wings have flown away?"
Doro glared at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense. It was probably blown away because of the heavy snowstorm just now, but it shouldn't be too far away. Let's look carefully."
Even so, Doro was extremely uneasy. Although the snowstorm was heavy just now, it was not enough to blow people away. They searched all over the five-mile radius and still could not find the body of Empress Xiaoshengxian.
The hope of expanding the search area is slim, but the body cannot disappear for no reason. What is going on?
Tunduo and the others once again expanded the search area to a radius of ten miles, but they also came up empty-handed. The body of Queen Xiaoshengxian seemed to have evaporated out of thin air. No matter how hard they tried, they could not find it.
Tun Duo said nervously: "Master Doluo, we have searched everything, and there is still no trace of Queen Xiaoshengxian. This... what should we do? If the emperor finds out about this, all of us will be killed.
; And if the emperor attaches so much importance to Queen Xiaoshengxian, he will definitely anger our respective families, and it is very likely that the whole family will be executed!"
Doro was also in a state of confusion at the moment, and said angrily: "You ask me, who should I ask?"
Ur said bitterly from the side: "In fact, this matter has nothing to do with us. It's all God's fault. If there hadn't been a snowstorm for no reason, how could things have turned out like this?"
"Speak to the emperor about this, and we will see whether the emperor blames God or you." Doro's words made Wu'er speechless, and he said dejectedly: "Then what should we do?"
Not only him, but all the Eight Banners disciples looked at him longingly, hoping that he could come up with a way. But for a while, Doro couldn't think of a way. He didn't give up and asked people to search the nearby snow again.
