Seeing Marjane turn into a man’s face! I was so frightened that I suddenly woke up!
This is a side effect of controlled drugs like Hexixi.
This medicine stimulates the central nervous system and has a certain degree of addiction! After waking up, I hesitated for a few seconds and threw the medicine bottle into the river. This thing... cannot be touched again.
After setting up a trap, Qiyue, who had been lurking like a poisonous snake, crawled to death. Although it was a bit sudden, this was huge good news for everyone!
With the hidden danger eliminated, we rested in the camp for two days and started going to the tomb.
Baotou firmly believed that the Miyaoshan Tomb was built according to the specifications of the Xixia royal tomb. After tracking it for more than a year, Baotou believed that Li Xian must have been buried here after his death!
As long as you find him, you have a chance to find the national treasure he took away from Zhongxing Mansion.
After being ventilated for two days, the strange fragrance in the curtain room was still there. Later, after my research, I found that the thick black liquid was a coffin liquid with a lot of preservatives added, and the fragrance was a mixed agarwood fragrance. It can attract monkeys and has a certain antiseptic effect.
For example, the kind of sitting vat used by monks from Mount Wutai to sit in after death will have a similar smell when opened after being sealed for a few years.
That night, in the tomb.
"Wang Boss, I'm going to take action?"
He took two deep breaths, looking a little nervous. He looked up at Ah Chun and said, "Let's do it. The others will retreat."
"Amitabha, Buddha bless you..."
Brother Yu made a sign of the cross on his chest and backed away slowly.
Others also retreated to the corner, shining their flashlights on Ah Chun.
At this moment, Ah Chun was four or five meters above the ground. She was standing on the hanging coffin with a knife in her hand. Seeing that we had retreated to a corner, Ah Chun raised her hand and used the knife to open up a green brick on the top of the tomb.
The hanging coffin, which was suspended in mid-air by iron chains, instantly dropped by more than half a meter!
It swayed from side to side and looked shaky.
"Attention! It's about to fall!"
Ah Chun violently opened the roof bricks of the tomb.
The huge hanging coffin fell at a very fast speed, and there was a loud bang! It hit the ground heavily!
Ah Chun pulled the iron lock and swung it on a swing in mid-air before landing firmly on the ground.
When the dust cleared, everyone ran to take a look.
The coffin is hundreds of years old, but I didn't expect the quality to be so good. It was not broken. The lid of the coffin was sealed with iron nails, but now it has broken open with a gap as wide as a little finger.
Looking through the gap, it was pitch black inside.
Inserting the crowbar along the gap, Brother Yu and I used force at the same time to slowly push open the coffin lid.
Covering my mouth and nose with my sleeves, I frowned and looked at the situation in the coffin.
What are all these things...?
Looking around, the inside of the coffin is filled with black mud.
Looking at it like this, it doesn't look like the mud left after water entered, but it looks like the mud that was filled in during the burial.
Dou Yawai covered his nose and said, "It doesn't stink. Why does it smell so sour, like Shanxi mature vinegar?"
Yes, Bean Sprout described it very accurately, it just smells like old vinegar.
I put on my gloves and slowly put my hands into the black mud to touch things. We were all messing around in the black mud like we were playing mahjong.
"Hey! There's something!"
Bean Sprouts touched the first thing first. It was wrapped in black mud and looked like a strange pentagon.
Dou Sprout said in confusion: "How come... there are starfish in the coffin? I used to catch these things when I went to sea."
"How could it be a starfish? Let me take a look."
Take it and wipe the mud.
This is a bronze pentagon with no inscription and a flame-like pattern carved on the reverse. I don’t know what it is. Is it a dart? I’ve never seen it before.
"Turn your head and take a look at what this is."
He took his head and looked at it and said: "This should be the water system of the Liao and Jin Dynasties. This is a component of the water system. There is a similar one in the Henan Museum."
It dawned on me.
The water system is an ancient fire engine. This thing is installed on the water tank. As long as you turn it, the water pipe will flow. Thanks to my knowledge, this thing is really rare.
Next, the funerary objects were fished out from the black mud one after another, including sword hilts, sword frames, and small bronze crossbows.
When we didn't talk, the tomb was eerily quiet.
Suddenly, my hand touched someone's nose.
Press it down and the skin will feel soft and elastic!
I jerked my hand away.
"Head! The corpse isn't rotten yet! It's a wet corpse!"
"Wet corpse?"
"How is it possible? There is no body here."
"Yes! There must be!"
"I just touched it! If you don't believe me, touch your head!"
He brought his head to me and tried it. His face looked ugly, and he nodded and said, "It's a wet corpse."
We took out the body of the tomb owner, and were shocked to find that it was only half of the body...
This ancient corpse is that of a male. The lower half of the body is missing. From the waist up, it is tightly wrapped with a circle of copper sheets, like a bust sculpture, but it must have been a living person before.
When the flashlight shined down, we could see that the wet corpse of a male had long hair, no teeth, a painful expression, and a slightly open mouth. When he moved his head and moved his hands, he found that the arm joints were still very flexible.
The facial condition of this male corpse was like old bacon that had been fried in oil. It was so disgusting that it was impossible to look at it.
After all, Achun didn't see many of these things. She covered her mouth and wanted to vomit, then she suddenly raised her head and said: "Achun, Xiaoxuan, you guys take a few steps back and don't come over again."
Wet corpses are rare in the north, but occasionally seen in the south.
In the past, there was an old saying in the industry that when a man sees a female corpse, he must bow three times to make fortune, while a woman should take five steps back when she sees a male corpse, otherwise she will get strange diseases.
"Boss, has this man been chopped in half before? But why is he covered with copper?"
He raised his head with a flashlight and frowned and said: "It doesn't look like he was cut in half... If he was cut in half, even if the embalming technology was good, the body would not be preserved, let alone a wet corpse."
He bowed his head three times and said, "Excuse me for disturbing my rest. To make a fortune, give me the knife."
I hurriedly handed it over.
He took the knife from his head and inserted it directly into the mouth of the wet corpse. With an upward force, he opened the mandible of the corpse.
I immediately saw that the wet corpse was biting something that looked like white jade.
Douyazai said excitedly: "Hankouyu!"
"I'll take the lead!"
I put my two fingers together and slowly inserted them into Shishi's mouth, like chopsticks, to take out what was in his mouth.
Dou Sprout Zai said it was a jade in the mouth, but that's not true. This kind of thing is called "tongue pressing".
After the death of ordinary people in ancient times, the tongue depressor was usually worth a copper coin. After the death of princes and nobles, the tongue depressor was of various kinds, including small gold bars, silver cakes, glass beads, etc. The most famous tongue depressor of Cixi in the Eastern Tomb of the Qing Dynasty is said to be a
A luminous pearl that glows green all year round.
The scientific theory of tongue pressing is that the face will collapse after death, and if you hold something in your mouth, it will bulge up and look good. The superstitious theory is that if you hold gold, silver and jade in your mouth, you can bribe ghosts and use them after you die, so you will suffer less torture.
From my experience, if tongue depressing occurs, there will usually be gang congestion.
The penis plugs of male corpses are all cylindrical, while those of female corpses are triangular.
If seven orifices appear on a corpse at the same time, it means that the person was either a high-ranking official or a relative of the emperor.
In addition to tongue depressors and ganggauges, the seven orifice plugs also include Ming towel (a towel to cover the face), eye mask, eye plugs, jade enthalpy, and eye lids, a total of seven items.
