"If I live forever, I can always be hungry and eat."
Wo Gua pitifully pulled away the floating objects in front of his eyes. Li Lvyan's hand stopped in mid-air: I even threw away the steering wheel. I never thought that for the purpose of immortality, Wo Gua would be so fresh and refined, different from others.
no the same!!
While talking and doing things, Wo Gua turned around inadvertently, not wanting to think about such sad things anymore. He was startled when he saw something floating in front of his eyes. He slapped the queen hard, which was comparable to the recoil of an AK47, and almost killed him.
Li Green Ant threw it into the swamp.
"Ghost, ghost, ghost, ghost - look, the will-o'-the-wisp, it's the will-o'-the-wisp!!"
Li Lvyan rubbed his protruding waist disc, stopped his black glasses for a moment, and turned his head to take a look, but saw countless blue and light green shadows suddenly appeared on the swamp water behind him. The shadows of these shadows
The shapes are also different, some are like a burning flame, some are like a lantern, some are like a man's figure, and some are like tombstones, so densely packed and stacked together.
, virtual and real, uncertain of light and death, just like hundreds of ghosts taking advantage of the way, no wonder the melons are in a coward.
Li Luyi desperately broke open Wo Gua's extremely strong hand and said with difficulty, "Look clearly, this is not a will-o'-the-wisp, but a phosphorus fire."
The phosphine and a small amount of phosphorus pentoxide produced when phosphorus reacts with water or alkali are colorless gases that can spontaneously ignite. When the corpses of humans and animals decompose, the phosphine spontaneously ignites and becomes a natural gas that is sometimes consumed in the wild at night.
The blue-green flames they see are believed by superstitious people to be the lingering ghosts of the deceased, so they are called "will-o'-the-wisps."
"I don't read much, so don't lie to me. Phosphorus fire is just a ball of fire. How can there be human phosphorus fire? Even if it is really phosphorus fire, if it turns into a human form, it must be a spirit phosphorus fire. It will still kill us."
.”
Finally, he pried off Wo Gua's fingers. Li Lvyan rubbed his sore arm and said, "Look carefully, those phosphorus fires that have transformed into human beings. Are there bigger phosphorus fires overlapping each other? You can see them from different angles."
It looks like they have different shapes, but they are all imaginary and real, but they are just what you imagined!"
Wo Gua changed his angle in doubt and looked from the side. Sure enough, he saw that the will-o'-the-wisp that looked like a human just now no longer looked like one anymore, and the tombstones and so on just now looked nothing like it from another angle.
Scratching his head, "Well, in this environment, you think so, hehe -"
Wo Gua laughed twice, the phosphorus fire in the swamp was lingering faintly on the swamp, and did not leave this swamp. Originally, there was only a place with phosphorus fire, but it soon became like an infection, and the entire swamp was spread with phosphorus fire. Li Lu
The ant's face was horrified, he put his bag on his back and dragged the silly melon on his back, shouting to run away.
"Why are you so anxious? Didn't you say this is a phosphorus fire and not a will-o'-the-wisp? Then why are you afraid of it?"
"I'm not afraid of will-o'-the-wisps, I'm afraid of phosphorus fire!"
Why--
Seeing that Wo Gua was still confused, Black Glasses didn't understand what was going on, but because he believed in Li Lvyan's judgment, he and he carried Wo Gua and left the swamp, waiting for the complete situation.
When they came to the shore, Li Green Ant looked at the increasing number of phosphorus fires and was still very worried. At this time, Wo Gua also understood that something had happened and started running quickly.
When the three of them quickly escaped through the swamp and passed through a very short passage, they finally no longer saw the glowing phosphorus fire just now. Li Luyi breathed a sigh of relief, and both Wo Gua and Black Glasses looked at Li Lu
Ant, "Now Corporal Dung Beetle, are you going to give us a result? Why did you run away like crazy just now? Didn't you say they don't pose any threat?"
"A phosphorus fire that is not a will-o'-the-wisp will certainly not pose any threat on its own, but a phosphorus fire will inevitably be accompanied by an increase in phosphine. Phosphine is a colorless and highly toxic substance. It is a highly toxic gas that is absorbed very quickly.
Mainly caused by respiratory inhalation poisoning, if the concentration in the air reaches 1390/m3, people can die quickly. After phosphine is absorbed, in addition to local irritation and corrosive effects on the respiratory tract and gastrointestinal tract, it quickly passes through the blood to the liver.
, kidneys, spleen and other places, it can spread throughout the whole body in one hour, and can affect metabolism in cell enzymes and make people suffocate. The phosphorus fire just now was not worth fussing about, but the space was densely packed with phosphorus fire, and it still stayed there.
Isn’t it a dead end?”
Wo Gua took out a dried leech from his pocket and asked tentatively, "If I die, can I use this to save my life? Didn't you just say that this can cure irregular menstruation?"
Li Green Ant laughed and scolded, "If you are really poisoned by phosphine, it will be useless even if the leech king comes. A large dose of laxatives and a few good stomach washes will probably have some effect."
Bad luck. Wo Gua thought that the hidden dried leeches could cure all diseases, but he didn't expect it to be so useless, so he threw it away.
Li Green Ant touched his chin, "Phosphorus fire is usually decomposed when the corpses of humans and animals decompose. Generally speaking, the phosphorus fire we see does not form gangs. There were so many phosphorus fires densely packed just now, which means that the floating corpses we fished out are just
A few, at least a thousand corpses were buried under that swamp."
Wo Gua felt cold and said, "Thousands of tools?"
"For phosphorus fire to form, it has to go through a series of conditions of time, space and environment. It is not something that people just say it has. In other words, if you want the most likely thing to appear, you must create the most.
The material basis is that with so many corpses, not every corpse can appear phosphorus fire. Maybe thousands of corpses are just a conservative number, and maybe there are more corpses buried under the swamp."
As soon as this statement came out, Black Glasses and Wo Gua immediately frowned fiercely: It's not that Li Lvyan didn't believe him, every word he said since he came to the tomb of King Guangling has not been fabricated out of thin air, unlike Wo Gua,
But regarding this reliable conjecture, it is one thing for them to hear it, and another thing entirely for them to accept it.
After all, you have experienced being surrounded by tens of thousands of rotting corpses. To experience thousands of floating corpses staring at you with swollen dead fish eyes is really not something to be happy about.
It's just that these floating corpses are different from those rotting corpses in that they don't open their eyes and actively attack people.
Wo Gua said strangely, "No, those rotting corpses have turned into corpses when they are so rotten. Those floating corpses are fine, just a little swollen. We just stayed in that swamp for so long, why didn't they turn into corpses?"
This question was a bit difficult to ask. Li Lvyan shook his head honestly and said he didn't know. "After all, the environment for corpse transformation is more harsh than the environment for phosphorus fire. We won't really suffer eight lifetimes of blood misfortune. When we encounter corpses,
Corpse transformation, that would be too tragic."
With a few hints of a rare academic atmosphere brewing, they finished the extremely short trail in a short time. The three of them came to a spacious and bright stone room. This stone room was different from other places, surrounded by red.
I don’t know what the bricks and stones were piled up, but what’s even more surprising is that there is a coffin in the center!
Wogua poked Li Lvyan in the heart and said, "I have been to so many places, have you ever heard of any place where the walls are buried in red?"
Li Lvyi blinked his eyes, "Generally, tomb bricks are cyan or black. Burnt paper bricks with cyan-gray color have an additional process. When the brick embryo is heated to a certain level, it is not allowed to cool down slowly, but starts from
A large amount of water is poured into the top of the brick kiln. At this time, the water and the gasified water vapor play a role in isolating the air. In the absence of oxygen, incomplete combustion of coal occurs, and some coal is not completely burned.
The small particles seep into the bricks and turn blue-grey."
"Because firing green bricks requires water leaching and multiple oxidation-reduction reactions, its internal structure is denser than any other bricks of any color. It can withstand strong pressure and is not brittle. Therefore, people have known how to bake green bricks since then.
When using bricks, most of the tombs found in the tombs of princes, generals and ministers were made of blue bricks, and even few of them were made of black bricks. As for the tombs of red bricks——"
Li Lvyan nodded his head and suddenly said, "The "Book of Han·Che Qianqiu Biography" contains the name 'The Favorite of the Pepper Room'. In ancient times, emperors used pepper rooms in their bridal chambers because peppers are red and hot, have many seeds inside, and are also beautiful.
Sterilization, so Jiao Fang became the name of the ancient harem. This term originated from the Western Han Dynasty. Since the Western Han Dynasty was so long earlier than the Eastern Han Dynasty, then this——"
Before he finished speaking, Wo Gua and Hei Jingyan entered the tomb earlier, shaking his head, "Let you tell the truth seriously, and it turned into a harem brawl. I don't think I need to ask him. I guess it was at that time
I ran out of other paints, so I had to use red paint, for no other reason."
…………
This tomb is the largest and most serious tomb that I have seen after the slide in the water park. It is about two hundred square meters. It is empty all around. There is only a coffin in front of me, lying quietly in the middle. Others
There was nothing. No grave goods, no ever-burning lamp, not even an explanation manual.
Wogua complained, and Li Lvyan shook his head, "That's not an explanation manual, that's an epitaph, an epitaph. It's really like a chicken talking to a duck, playing the piano to a cow, hey--"
Wo Gua knocked around the coffin nonchalantly, and Li Lvyi circled the wall. He felt that this place was no different than before, it was very warm. For some reason, the light of the flashlight was still unable to be reflected here, and the thin
When looking at those walls, it seems that the lines of mud and sand around the walls are very obvious. It seems that the craftsmen did not pay attention to the finishing touches when painting, and ignored the beauty.
He scratched his head: Are the princes' tombs so careless? Why do I feel that everything I have encountered since coming down the slide is full of weirdness?
Black Glasses is obviously more interested in the coffin, because the coffin is the easiest thing to find clues here.
At the end corner of the wall, there is a round hole, which is wide and wide. It must be that if something unexpected happens, you can get out from here.
After finding a way out, Li Green Ant also joined the exploration team.
This coffin is a bit special. It’s different from anything I’ve seen before. Not to mention it’s huge. The outer coffin walls are surrounded by 179 sticks of wood with a special fragrance. There are 3 layers on the east side and 15 on the east and west walls of each layer.
, a total of 45 poles; there are slight gaps on the north and south sides, with 3 layers on each side, and 18 poles on each floor in the north-south direction, a total of 54 poles; there are only 2 floors on the west side, with 13 poles on each floor in the east-west direction, a total of 26 poles. The height of the four sides is low.
The outer wall panels of the coffin.
The pattern carvings on the wall panels are simple, the colors are simple, and the pictures are elegant and subtle, without being mystical. Most of them describe beautiful scenes such as brothers and sisters, labor scenes, farming and cooking, etc. There is also a hint of exquisiteness hidden in the elegance, which can be seen at a glance.
The true meaning of it.
Wo Gua knocked on the coffin outside, and heard a thick and dull sound. He squeezed it again, with a squinting look on his face, and smacked his lips, "This coffin board is quite interesting."
The wooden beams on the outer wall of the coffin are all flat and stacked, with a polished surface and smooth workmanship. They are brown in color and have no mortise and tenon joints. The joints are only tightly packed with powdered charcoal and gypsum mud.
"It's a cypress yellow sausage." Li Lvyan's eyes lit up.
When Wogua saw Li Lvyan, he just looked at it once with a magnifying glass and then looked again.
He is famous, but this name is quite strange. "I can also see that this wood does not look like an ordinary coffin board, but I have never heard of your name."
The body is as black as carbon, with a special color. When exposed to water, it becomes black and bright, when applied with oil, the color remains, and when burnt, the ashes turn yellow, which is different from ordinary wood.
There are differences in weight and weight, whether they can sink or float, whether they have fragrance or not, they all have a certain number. There are different types of trees, and whether they have fragrance or not.
Thousands of years of carbonization have turned into gloom, and the sunken wood has been underwater for many years. They are all good trees, and they have been spiritually mature for many years. The remaining coffin boards are all called yin wood.
The wood of the coffin in front of him has a delicate fragrance, is bright and colorful, and the sound is soft and smooth. It is obviously different from ordinary wood. Although Wo Gua doesn't understand the reason, he still has the discernment he should have.
Li Green Ant was circling the coffin while talking about "the so-called 'yellow intestine', that is, cypress with a yellow heart, which is peeled cypress, that is, the cypress wood used in stacking the coffin room. The core color of the cypress wood is yellow. Because of the title,
The wood used is cypress rafters with the bark peeled off, which is named after the light yellow color of the wood. The yellow core of cypress wood covers the outside of the coffin, so it is called Huangchang. The wood is all inward, so it is called Ticuo. That is, Huangchang refers to the tomb.
Materials and colors - cypress wood with yellow heart, Ticuo refers to the form and structure of the tomb - the wood is all introverted. Huangchang Ticuo was a name that only appeared in the middle of the Western Han Dynasty, and before that, it was only called Ticuo."
Black Glasses looked at it calmly, "This Huang Chang Ti Minato is not something that ordinary people can afford, but it is indeed like this in front of me -"
As soon as the words were spoken, the three of them already knew: coffins are not an ordinary funeral method, but a privilege of the nobility. There were etiquette regulations on funerals in the Zhou Dynasty: the emperor must use two coffins and five coffins. In other words,
The emperor's body must have a two-layer coffin or a five-layer coffin. "Xunzi, Rites" during the Warring States Period records: The emperor's coffin has seven layers, the princes have five layers, the officials have three layers, and the scholars have the third layer. The order decreases from top to bottom, and the princes use it.
There are one coffin and four coffins, or three coffins and two coffins. The doctors use one coffin and two coffins, and the scholars use one coffin and one coffin. The common people are left with only one coffin. Among them, the outermost one is called the "big coffin", and its size is also
The difference is that the emperor's coffin is eight inches thick, the doctor's coffin is six inches thick, and the common people's coffin is only allowed to be four inches thick.
Wo Gua's face changed: "Isn't it the emperor lying in this coffin? Doesn't it mean that such a high-standard burial method can only be used to bury the emperor?"
Li Lvyi shook his head, "The princes, officials, and scholars below the emperor can also use inscriptions. But generally they cannot use cypress wood, but pine and miscellaneous wood. However, with the permission of the emperor, princes, kings and important ministers can also use yellow intestine inscriptions after their death."
"For example, when Huo Guang died in the Han Dynasty, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty gave one to Zi Gong, one to Bian Fang, and one to Huang Chang Ti, which is the best proof."
As soon as this sentence came out, the correct answer was almost revealed. Li Lvyan made up his mind that Liu Jing must be in the coffin of Huangchangtia. Black Glasses was half-convinced, and Wogua was completely unconvinced: he and his party found it.
So after searching for King Guangling for so long, he happened to stumble upon a coffin?
Thinking about it this way, could it be that the giant leeches and the giant swine worm that we met before were the bodyguards that Liu Jing kept there deliberately?
This made me feel sick all of a sudden: the taste of this Liu Jing is quite unique.
They stared and couldn't see anything. After discussing it, a few people decided to open the coffin. No matter how wildly they looked outside, they were just thinking. If they could find actual evidence to prove that it was Liu Jing, then the answers to all the questions would be easily solved.
.
The three of them each stood in a position, with Wo Gua and Hei Gua holding the front and back sides of the coffin. The three of them worked for a long time, and Wo Gua's Luoyang shovel, which had broken off a corner, once again showed its power and nailed the coffin tightly.
He picked it up vigorously, muttering in his mouth as he did so.
Li Lvyan and Black Glasses are making preparations to prevent corpse transformation, because Li Lvyan always has a feeling that after the coffin is opened, something terrible is likely to happen inside. But Wogua seems to be lazy.
He was willing to work, and immediately criticized him, "Comrade Wo Gua, the revolution cannot be half-hearted or haphazard. You just work. Why did you climb to the top of the coffin without any problems? Do you think this is Simmons?"
Wo Gua was wrongly accused, "The nails in the coffin were embedded so deep that none of them could be pulled out. I could not pull them out even if I tried to exert force on the side without a foothold. Only then did I want to stand up and exert my force."
"You want to be lazy but don't find a better excuse. It's so easy to expose it. Did you do it on purpose, Wogua?"
One of the seven nails on the coffin is the descendant nail. It is said that it can also make descendants prosperous. When the coffin is placed and covered, a red thread must be tied to it, and the filial son will pull it with his hand, and the carpenter will knock it gently.
Even if it's over, it means "leave it behind", which is the source of the current saying of "leaving a thread behind when doing things so that we can meet each other in the future". It is taboo to drive this nail, otherwise it will be extremely detrimental to future generations. This is still the case among the people, and people in the royal family do not care about funerals.
More importantly, this lazy melon wants to find an excuse to say that it can't be pulled out. It's just too ridiculous.
Li Lvyan decided to give Wo Gua a good ideological education, changed sides with Wo Gua, and asked him to help with the black glasses. He immediately walked to Wo Gua's feet and said, "Wo Gua, your behavior really makes me sad.
Today, on behalf of all the young pioneers across the country, I humiliate—"
His eyes casually shifted to the coffin lid. Li Lvyan looked startled. Wogua lay panting on the coffin lid and stuffed the Luoyang shovel into Li Lvyan's hand.
It’s the coffin nails that are really like fucking concrete, they won’t move.”
Black Glasses saw Li Lvyan's expression change instantly, and he knew something was wrong. He turned around and took a look, and he was also a little surprised.
