According to industry rules, white candles are not lit in tombs, only red candles are lit. White candles are unlucky.
Dou Sprouts and I slowly moved the coffin lid away.
Ah Chun held up a candle to light up the scene, and we all gathered around to watch.
bedding!
A quick glance inside the coffin revealed that it was all filled with thick yellow bedding!
The embroidery stitches were clearly visible. When I touched them lightly, these quilts were like soft tofu. They looked complete but fell apart when I touched them!
One layer, two layers.
We took it down layer by layer, and I roughly counted that the tomb owner was covered with fourteen layers of quilts!
The last layer is the best preserved. It is a yellow gauze silk gauze curtain from the Song and Yuan Dynasties. Through the thin layer of yellow gauze, we can all see that the tomb owner has a very upturned nose.
It's female.
Looking down, the ancient corpse is obviously pregnant with a big belly, like a pregnant woman who is pregnant in ten months.
It was very dark inside the tomb, and the candles were like fireflies, illuminating only a few feet inside the coffin.
The leader, Mr. Jiao, he belongs to both the southern and northern factions. He has been doing this all his life. At this moment, his eyes are full of shock!
"Fengzi, have you seen it?"
Dou Sprout looked frightened and kept shaking my arm.
"Don't fucking shake me, I'm not blind, I saw it!"
I'm afraid of ghosts, but I'm not afraid of corpses, especially female corpses, and there's nothing to be afraid of.
I stretched out my hand and was about to lift off the last layer of yellow gauze on the body.
The boss didn't let me use my hands directly, but handed me a pair of chopsticks, meaning not to touch them directly, so it would be safe.
Just like that, I used chopsticks to pick up the yellow sand curtain on the face of the female corpse, and lifted it up little by little.
"Fuck!"
Bean Sprout was so frightened that he took two steps back and sat down on the ground.
Everyone's face turned pale.
Has anyone ever seen ancient people face to face?
None, right?
I have seen!
That scene is still fresh in my memory.
This female corpse was on the thin side and should have been around thirty when she died. She had a white jade hairpin inserted into her head. The hairpin did not completely tie her hair, and half of her hair was spread out on the back of her head.
The female corpse's eyes were tightly closed, her expression was peaceful, and no trace of the pain of death could be seen. Her facial features were lifelike, with an oval face, a cherry mouth, willow eyebrows, and a raised nose. She looked like a nomadic beauty.
The female corpse in Mawangdui, Changsha has not rotted for two thousand years, and the female corpse in Jingzhou has not rotted for more than a thousand years, but compared to the female corpse in front of me, it is so different!
This woman looks like she just died last week! The only explanation is that the sealing of the camel skin lacquer coffin, coupled with the dozens of layers of quilts covering the female body, completely cut off the air! As a result, a similar sound was produced in the coffin.
The state of vacuum.
But even so, the face of a person who has been dead for hundreds of years cannot be so lifelike. This is really scary!
At this time, Xiaoxuan suddenly said to me: "Yunfeng, look at her, she is so beautiful."
"It's so beautiful!" I said with a white face: "I've been dead for hundreds of years, I guess I will turn into a zombie soon."
Mr. Jiao Jiu sighed and said: "Hey... the world is full of wonders. My trip with you was not in vain. I opened my eyes before I died. This is the true immortality."
I asked what the non-bone is?
Jiao Jiuye did not answer me directly, but continued: "It is more troublesome to explain the non-transformed bones. The time, place and people are indispensable. When the Qing Dynasty Tomb was stolen, people in the industry said that the old Buddha's face was rosy and lifelike when he opened the coffin.
The reason why she became immortal is actually because she had a luminous pearl under her tongue. Young man, please take a look at this female corpse."
This story is true. At that time, Cixi had a pearl under her tongue. I don’t know if it was a night pearl. No one had ever seen it.
I took a deep breath to embolden myself, silently said I'm sorry, and then pinched the female corpse's jaw open with one hand.
"I can't see it. Bring the candle and light it."
I pinched the female corpse's mouth and looked around.
I haven't brushed my teeth for many years. My teeth are black and yellow. My tongue is very big and looks a bit shriveled, like a pig's tongue.
