"Look, the grilled food on this fourth mural is probably the big octopus." Li Jinyong pointed to another mural on the stone wall and said.
Lin Yian and Xiao Chang immediately looked over.
I saw maritime merchants mooring six ships next to an unknown island.
Although this island looks small, its terrain is rich and diverse. It has golden beaches, rolling hills, green mountain peaks and extremely quiet valleys.
From time to time, animals such as wild deer and wild goats run around.
Various lush tropical trees form forests on the island, some of which are filled with many peach-like wild fruits. The red fruits hang all over the branches, shining with an attractive luster under the sunlight.
The lingering mist is steaming over the island, adding a touch of mystery to the island. It is like a paradise that no one has ever set foot on, making people want to explore it.
On a flat mountainous area, the caravan, from the luxuriously dressed merchant to the owners of each ship, including crew members, guards, attendants, chefs, etc., were all happily grilling food.
The blazing flames danced, illuminating the octopus on their fire stand.
Zizzi!
The huge octopus meat sizzles under the flames, and the oil drips continuously, exuding bursts of alluring aroma.
The aroma seemed to be magical, and the three people standing in front of the mural couldn't help but swallow their saliva, as if they could taste the delicious grilled octopus with their hands.
Lin Yi'an shouted: "Don't watch it anymore. If you continue to watch it, I'm afraid I will be hungry and lose energy!"
The fifth mural presents a sighing scene.
Above the mural, the two ships of the caravan sank without knowing what they touched.
The location is just after leaving the island, because the island still appears on this mural, as if silently witnessing the disaster.
Countless silks, porcelain and tea leaves were scattered in the sea, floating in the sea like fallen leaves.
The crew members, men, and guards of the two ships were desperately trying to swim upstream to the other ships. They were struggling in the water, their faces full of fear and despair.
People in the caravan had different reactions.
Some stewards ordered people to salvage those precious goods in an attempt to recover losses.
Some had expressionless faces, perhaps overwhelmed by the sudden disaster, staring blankly at the chaos in front of them. They just stood there blankly, not knowing how to face it all.
Others were so disheartened that they slumped on the ground helplessly, allowing themselves to be overwhelmed by despair.
The whole picture is full of sadness and helplessness, making people sigh for the fate of the caravan!
"The owner of this tomb is quite interesting. He still painted such a shipwreck!" Lin Yian felt that the idea of the tomb owner was extremely strange.
After saying that, he turned around and looked at the sixth mural.
Although Xiao Chang did not speak, he was not interested in this shipwreck mural and looked at the sixth mural.
The sixth mural depicts the story of the tomb owner being welcomed by many people overseas and then returning home in fine clothes.
In this mural, the cornucopia appears again. It looks exactly like the one next to the coffin.
There was a cornucopia in the main tomb chamber, which made Lin Yian and Xiao Chang wonder.
Because the cornucopia is often associated with Shen Wansan.
Shen Wansan, the richest businessman in the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties.
Legend has it that he relied on the cornucopia to make his fortune.
Since ancient times, there are two ways to say that Shen Wansan obtained the cornucopia:
The first is the frog's repayment of kindness.
It is said that Shen Wansan once had a strange dream when he was young.
In his dream, he saw many young men in green clothes asking for help from him.
The next morning he went out to buy food and saw an old farmer catching more than a hundred frogs and selling them in the market. Thinking of his dream last night, Shen Wansan bought all the frogs and released them in the river.
That night, there was a golden clay pot under the bed at home.
At first, Shen Wansan didn't think there was anything magical about this golden earthenware basin, he just thought he had bought it wrong.
He threw it casually under the eaves.
Until one day after it rained, Shen Wansan's daughter-in-law came back from buying vegetables and meat from the market. Because her hands were stained with a lot of mud, she wanted to wash her hands in the basin.
When she bent down, she accidentally slipped the silver hairpin on her head. With a flash of golden light, the silver hairpin turned into three in the basin.
Then throw the silver ingot in and do the same.
From then on, Shen Wansan became the richest man in the world.
In the second type, young Shen Wansan went out to cut grass. There was a hillside called Qilinpo near his home. There was an unnamed creek next to the hillside, and the grass on the riverside was extremely lush.
Half a month passed, and Shen Wansan noticed something very wrong.
A small river is a small river, no matter how much green grass there is, it will be almost all cut in ten days.
But the green grass on both sides of the river seems to be endless.
So Shen Wansan kept an eye on it and drew a mark on the place where he cut the grass today. When he went there again the next day, he was completely confused.
Well, the grass that was just cut yesterday has grown again today.
Shen Wansan thought for a moment, could there be some treasure buried underneath?
So he found a dark and windy night and went to the river with a hoe. When he dug, he dug out a golden clay basin.
This is the cornucopia.
"Treasure bowl, cornucopia! Haha, I'm rich!" Xiao Chang and Lin Yian looked at each other, and they both saw a touch of excitement in each other's eyes.
At this time, Li Jinyong was extremely concerned about the fifth mural, the shipwreck mural.
His eyes scanned the entire mural closely, as if he wanted to memorize every detail of the mural.
The eyes revealed an indescribable complex emotion, including shock and confusion.
No one knew that his hands in his pockets were trembling slightly at this time.
At this time, Li Jinyong seemed to have a fog in his heart, and this shipwreck mural was the key to unlocking the fog.
"Strange, from the moment I entered the main tomb chamber, I felt a chill on the back of my neck. It was like someone was blowing on the back of my neck. It seemed that besides the three of us, there was a fourth person in the tomb. What a special girl.
Evil!" Lin Yian muttered, and subconsciously shrank his neck.
Looking around, there were only the three of them in the tomb that was as bright as day and the mute murals, cornucopias, coffins, and a dozen stone statues of turtles, dragons, phoenixes, tigers, etc.
Xiao Chang, who was standing next to him, teased, "Hahaha, Brother An, you're not afraid of people, but of ghosts, right?"
His words did not relieve Lin Yian's nervousness, but made Lin Yian's face paler by three points.
Lin Yi'an smiled and immediately changed the subject. He straightened his face and said, "Young Master, is this cornucopia real or fake? If there really is a cornucopia, it would be really amazing!"
Xiao Chang pointed to a beautifully carved stone turtle statue in the tomb and said, "Step on it and go up and take a look and you will know?"
