Chapter nine hundred and seventy seventh pubic lice
Mr. Ma said that at that time, the bookstore priced these scriptures at RMB 150,000, which was already a sky-high price at the time.*
Then he added: "Actually, these scriptures are priceless treasures! Originally, I thought of leaving them to you first. Unfortunately, you don't have this luck."
Mr. Ma told Yuan Dunyi that those scriptures were bought by three cadres from the central government who were familiar to him. Each of them paid 50,000 yuan and issued three invoices for 50,000 yuan.
At that time, Yuan Dun told Mr. Ma that he couldn't afford it at such a high price. Mr. Ma said that even if he borrowed money, he should buy it!
At that time, when Yuan Dun heard what Mr. Ma said, he suddenly felt regretful and regretted that he had not frequented Chinese bookstores more often.
The national treasure that "had not been seen for hundreds of years" not only missed him, but was also isolated from the current world and became missing.
Afterwards, Yuan Dunyi consulted ancient books and found some historical records about Buddhist scriptures with golden characters. He found that the Tripitaka, Shanxi Tongzhi, Chicheng Zhi, Yuanshi. This is recorded in ancient books such as "Xue Gu Lu" written by Ming and Song Dynasties, "Wen Xian Ji" written by Ming Zheng Zhen, "Wan Cuixuan Ji" written by Ming Zheng Zhen, and "Manuscript of Qing History".
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Timothy Richard, an Englishman, once said: "The speaker said that since Buddhism entered China, those who worshiped the Buddha used red gold to decorate Buddha statues and rewrote the Tibetan Sutra in gold. The world therefore competed to make gold foil, so gold It’s expensive and expensive.”
However, what Timothy Richard said is not accurate. This kind of judgment can be used before the Tang Dynasty. Since the Song Dynasty, all dynasties have banned "converting gold into clay and rewriting Buddhist scriptures". Only the royal family is allowed to make fake works. , do not allow people to overstep their bounds and make mistakes.
Finally, Yuan Dun said: "According to the historical data I have found, the last time the royal family used gold to write Buddhist scriptures was in the 32nd year of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty (1767). Based on this, in 1992, a Chinese bookstore discovered a book written by Mr. Ma. Those gold-lettered Buddhist scriptures sold were from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty at the latest, or even earlier, which should not conflict with the time you inferred."
"Then how are you sure that this set of Golden Clay Sutra fell into the hands of Tianyan Zhang?" Han Kongque asked.
Yuan Dunyi said a little embarrassedly: "Later I got some small rights, so it became convenient. The three people who bought this set of books at that time were all related to Tianyan Zhang. You think, in the early 1990s. Ten thousand yuan is definitely a sky-high price. Who among the state officials at that time would dare to spend so much money to buy antiques?
Even 50,000 yuan was still a huge amount of money. At that time, households with 10,000 yuan were rare. If a state cadre spent that much money, he would definitely be criticized. Therefore, anyone who dared to spend this money must have a reason. Not to be suspected.
And this is really what happened. Later I found out that the source of this batch of funds was overseas, and finally traced it here. Therefore, it is definitely true that this house belongs to Tianyan Zhang. If you really found gold mud in Zhao Tuo’s tomb Scripture, then it must be correct that Tian Yan Zhang entered Zhao Tuo’s tomb.”
"So, you are planning to break into Zhao Tuo's tomb in the near future?" Han Peacock said with a smile.
Yuan Dun said: "Now that your strength has been recognized by us, you are qualified to enter Zhao Tuo's tomb."
"You don't want to cooperate with me anymore?" Han Peacock said funny.
Yuan Dun said: "We will definitely cooperate with you, there is no doubt about it."
Han Kongque nodded and said: "It seems that you have a lot of ideas, but if I don't want to enter Zhao Tuo's tomb, what do you think?"
"Don't want to enter?" Yuan Dun was stunned.
Han Kongque nodded and said with a smile: "I'm leaving. I have a day off today and may go back to the Magic City tomorrow. Do you think I can still visit Zhao Tuo's tomb in the remaining time?"
"It's full daylight today, so I have plenty of time!" Yuan Dun said.
Han Kongque shook his head and said: "I'm afraid not. I'm going to the dock in a while. My ship will dock at any time. As soon as it docks, we will leave."
"Are you serious?" Yuan Dunyi's expression changed.
Han Peacock said with a smile: "With the Yangcheng City Government, we will continue to cooperate in a friendly manner. As for expeditions and other things, I was interested in cooperating with you before today, but you did not show sincerity. Therefore, in order to avoid conflicts in the future,
I think it’s better to forget about this cooperation!”
Yuan Dunyi's expression changed several times, and finally he said: "Since you don't want to go, Brother Han, we won't force you to go. However, can you share with us the information you obtained from Zhao Tuo's tomb?"
"Since I don't want to go, those information will naturally not be kept secret from you. After my men broke into Zhao Tuo's tomb, they encountered three situations. The first was poison, the second was evil spirit, and the third was poisonous people. I
You must have known such a thing." Han Kongque said.
Yuan Dun said: "Only Poison Man has not been encountered. I wonder if Brother Han can explain it in detail?"
Han Kongque said: "Of course, the situation there is obvious. I won't say more about Yin Sha. After so many years, you must have a lot of them in your hands, which are comparable to protective treasures such as the Golden Clay Sutra. There are things of this level.
Protection, breaking into Zhao Tuo's tomb is definitely not a problem.
Since you haven't encountered poisonous people yet, you are still going through the first level. The first level is poison, but it is not an ordinary poison or a poison, but a kind of creature. I can't find this kind of creature.
With little information, it was finally confirmed that it was a wonderful little thing called pubic lice.”
"Pubic lice?" Ye Sheng and Yuan Dunyi both changed their expressions.
Han Peacock smiled: "It seems you know a lot about pubic lice?"
Han Kongque smiled rather obscenely, and Ye Sheng and Yuan Dunyi were not very pure people, so they both understood what Han Kongque meant.
Pubic lice in the common sense can cause a kind of pubic lice disease, and the pathogen of pubic lice disease is an external parasite - pubic lice.
In fact, there are three types of lice that parasitize the human body, namely head lice, body lice and pubic lice. Their parasitic sites, living habits and appearance are slightly different.
Pubic lice mainly live in the pubic area, but can also live in the armpits. They are small and flat in size, appearing as light yellow or dark brown spots, visible to the naked eye, with an average length of about 1 to 2 mm.
The front two pairs of legs of pubic lice are slender, and the back two pairs of legs are wider and have hook-shaped spikes. The abdomen is short and wide like a crab, and has less mobility. It often buries its mouth in the skin, hair follicles, hair shafts or close to the skin.
She doesn't like to move, and usually moves up to 10mm a day. She often hangs the claws on the hair roots.
Pubic lice generally do not leave the pubic hair. Only during sexual intercourse do pubic lice leave the original host and infect new hosts. It is for this reason that Korean peacocks smile a bit obscenely.
"The type of pubic lice I'm talking about is very similar to the type of pubic lice you understand. However, they are completely different. What's similar is their appearance and body shape, but what's different is their habits.
The pubic lice that appeared in Zhao Tuo's tomb are relatively dangerous. If this kind of thing invades the human body, the symptoms will be more like malaria. This disease was also a terrible plague in ancient times. Therefore, pubic lice appeared in Zhao Tuo's tomb.
In the tomb, it should be intentional."
"Are you saying that you deliberately put it in the tomb to guard the tomb?" Although Ye Sheng was surprised, it was reasonable. The ancients attached great importance to their resting place, and they could do anything beyond their imagination.
Understood.
Han Kongque said: "Because the size of pubic lice is very small, except for the fully enclosed nano-level protective clothing, which may have some effect, no other clothing can isolate the invasion of pubic lice. As long as the pubic lice invades and is fed by blood,
Pubic lice will multiply rapidly until the human body dies.
After the death of a human body, pubic lice will enter a state similar to hibernation until another organism enters their hibernation place, and they will wake up again and enter another active period."
"Pubic lice infest the human body, right?" Yuan Dun said.
Han Peacock nodded and said: "In ancient tombs, as long as there is a physical place, there will be pubic lice parasitism. As long as they enter within a ten-meter radius of the pubic lice, the pubic lice will be stimulated by the human body's energy and blood to wake up."
"Can you tell me how you avoid pubic lice infestation?" Yuan Dunyi said unceremoniously.
Han Peacock rolled his eyes, but still replied: "Use the ability to control water to form a water curtain. As long as something invades the water curtain I control, I can detect it immediately, so I can catch such cute pubic lice."
little thing."
"Cute?" Yuan Dunyi also rolled his eyes.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "Didn't you find that corpses infested by pubic lice are incorruptible? With just such a characteristic, this little thing will be recognized by the ancient nobles."
"Preservation was really a big problem in ancient times. So, pubic lice are still a good thing?" Yuan Dun said.
At this time, Ye Sheng broke out in a cold sweat. He said: "If this kind of thing is taken out of the ancient tomb, wouldn't it cause a disaster?"
Han Peacock smiled and said: "The reason why they are called pubic lice is because these little things cannot see light, and they hate light sources and generally will not leave dark places. Of course, as long as the outside temperature exceeds 25 degrees, they can leave the parasite
Eventually, this little thing will die."
"So wearing clothing with a relatively high temperature can also prevent pubic lice from invading the body?" Yuan Dun asked.
Han Peacock smiled and said, "You can give it a try."
"You say that, it's obviously not possible?" Yuan Dunyi said helplessly.
Han Peacock nodded and said: "We have done experiments. Although high temperature can kill pubic lice, it does not kill them instantly. The reason why pubic lice can sense the approach of a creature is entirely because of the body temperature of the creature. Therefore, wear high-temperature protection."
Wearing protective clothing will only attract more pubic lice attacks. As long as the pubic lice are allowed to invade the body, no matter how high the temperature, the protective clothing is worn, it will be in vain.”
"Then there's no way we can get around this barrier?" Yuan Dunyi said disappointedly.
Han Kongque said: "If it were so easy to solve, Zhao Tuo's tomb would not have been preserved for thousands of years without being destroyed."
"I want you to break into Zhao Tuo's tomb. You won't follow me every time, right? Your men must have managed to avoid the attacks of pubic lice. Why don't we talk about it?" Yuan Dun said. (To be continued...)
