Chapter 50 Coffin
The tomb is dark, and there are two bronze men standing beside the huge white coffin. This scene is strange and anyone feels uncomfortable when they see it.
At this time, the boss was shocked and asked: "The owner of the tomb really doesn't play according to common sense. He is good at the tomb room and has to hide himself in this corner alone. What are you doing? The key is that there are no burial objects, just these two bronze men. I suddenly saw it and thought it was Terracotta Warriors." He shone the bronze men with a flashlight.
"It is possible that this corner is a Feng Shui treasure land, a coffin made of giant clams, tsk," the third brother said in a deep voice: "The owner of this tomb is too rich. Look at me, I'll open it for him."
After saying that, he took out a folded small steel shovel from his bag. The shovel was not large in size and was similar to an engineer shovel. It not only could dig soil, but also pry coffin boards.
The eldest brother used a flashlight to help light the light, while the third brother carried a shovel and walked around the coffin. I knew he was looking for a patio.
In ancient times, when tombs were made, whether civilians or nobles would deliberately leave a small hole in the tomb, and the same was true for the coffin. The hole was left very small, and its meaning was to allow the person in the coffin to ascend to heaven. This small hole was called a courtyard.
In the Tang and Song dynasties, the courtyard was renamed Mujing, and in the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was renamed Huokou. In fact, it was a kind of change of soup and no medicine.
I don’t know why, but the temperature in the secret room where the tomb owner’s coffin is very low and very cold, approaching below zero.
"Finally found it!" The third brother's eyes lit up, and he stopped at the northwest corner of the coffin. There was a small rectangular hole in the coffin. The third brother said that this hole was the so-called patio.
The principle of the coffin is actually easy to understand. It is what people often call nesting dolls. The large ones are covered with small ones, layer by layer. If you want to pry them open, you can only do them layer by layer.
There are rules for the number of layers of the coffin.
ps://m.
vp.
The fourth coffin of the emperor, the third coffin of the princes and kings, and the first coffin of the scholars and officials. After the death of the lower classes, only coffin is allowed, not coffin. The coffin is used between the coffin and the coffin, and there is no nail.
After thousands of years, the mortise and tenon structure became very fragile. I pried it hard with a shovel. Sure enough, the outer layer of the coffin was loose.
As long as you open the gap, the next step will be simple, just peel it.
The boss also went up to help. The two of them worked together for tacitly and opened the first coffin in less than half an hour.
It doesn't matter when you look down, and everyone was shocked.
Under this coffin of the white tridacna, there was a layer of black metal coffin.
After seeing it, Sister Hong exclaimed: "It's oxidized, this is silver!"
Silver coffin!
Are there silverware during the Western Zhou Dynasty?
Yes! But very small!
In the 1970s, the Shanxi archaeological team unearthed a silver burial with the inscription "Madam Yueling". This silver burial is a national treasure and is the kind that is permanently prohibited from being exhibited abroad.
But what we saw was a silver coffin board several meters long and wide!
After a closer look, there seemed to be some patterns engraved on the oxidized black silver coffin board.
The third brother said excitedly: "I've opened my eyes, I've opened my eyes! This is really opened my eyes. These two layers of coffin boards are so powerful. What big things are there in the innermost coffin!"
Despite the weakness of the patio, it took a lot of effort to open this layer of silver coffin.
"It's almost gone! Be careful not to hit the foot, this thing is not a big deal!"
"Wait for third brother!"
"Look at it! There is water flowing in front!"
I saw a lot of black viscous liquid flowing out along the gaps of the silver coffin board, and the more it flowed, a fishy smell came to my face!
"Back back!" The Sun brothers retreated.
The black water in the silver coffin board continued to flow more and more, flowing all over the ground.
Sister Hong covered her nose and said, "Does this black water flow out of the coffin?"
The eldest brother nodded and said, "Look, let's take a look after the flow is clean. According to the previous situation, there will be at least one layer of coffin inside."
"Huh? Something is wrong, brother," I discovered something strange at this time.
"What's wrong with Yunfeng?"
I pointed to the two bronze statues that looked like Terracotta Warriors and said, "Is there a pit under these two bronze statues? Look, why did all the coffin liquid seep down, following the foot of the bronze statue?"
The elder brother frowned when he saw it.
As we got closer, we looked at it carefully with the flashlight and then we discovered the trick.
It turned out that there were many small eyes around the bronze statue's feet. The anticorrosion coffin liquid flowing out of the silver coffin board leaked down the small eyes at the feet of the bronze statue.
The boss looked up at the surroundings of the tomb of the master's tomb, and then he said, "Maybe this was designed by the tomb owner in the past. The purpose is to prevent waterproofing, and he is afraid that the rain will damage the place."
"Okay, don't worry about this for now. I see that the coffin liquid is almost flowing. Third brother, let's go and pry the last layer of coffin board for him to open!"
"Be careful," Sister Hong frowned and looked around and said, "My heart is beating and I don't feel good."
"Hey, nothing is wrong, Xiaohong, you're so cold because it's too cold here."
The Sun brothers shoveled the front and back, and pried open the coffin board in a short while.
As the silver coffin board fell off, it instantly.
A golden color flashed before my eyes.
The innermost layer of coffin board is pure gold
It turned out to be a golden coffin and a silver coffin!
The flashlight was shot in front, and the golden reflective light was shaking the eyes.
Gold will not oxidize like silver, and it will still be as bright as new after thousands of years. This layer of gold coffin is engraved with a large number of patterns, and the patterns are all lifelike.
The patterns on the gold plate include Feather Man and Feitian, one of the most strange patterns.
This is a row of soldiers in armor. Strangely, they all have an animal like a snake on their heads.
No, if you look closely with a flashlight, you can't call it a snake, you can only say it looks like it, because the praise is very obvious, these snakes are all with feet.
Looking at this pattern, Sister Hong's expression was solemn and lowered her head to meditate.
Suddenly, she looked up suddenly and said in shock: "Big third! The army with four-legged snakes hanging on its head! Isn't this the legend of the ancient Yue Kingdom!"
The golden light shook through the human eyes. The boss touched the golden coffin board and said in a deep voice: "That's just a legend. I can't take it seriously. Unexpectedly, the owner of this tomb is still a believer of the ancient Yue Hei Witch."
I couldn't understand what it meant, so I asked.
At this time, Sister Hong explained: "In the past, there was a small country called Gu Yue in the Southern Barbarians. This Gu Yue was not the Yue country in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It was far earlier than that. The Gu Yue in the Southern Barbarians was the originator of Chu Wu culture and the origin of the Miaojiang Gu poison. Legend has it that Gu Yue had a four-legged snake witch army that was invincible to attack the city and conquer the land. What's more, it said that as long as the four-legged snake on the soldier's head was not dead, these soldiers would not die. Even if they were shot into an arrow, they could still jump around and kill the enemy."
"No, Sister Hong, it's not reliable no matter how you sound," I didn't believe it.
Sister Hong nodded, "Don't say you don't believe it, I don't believe it either, but" she pointed to the four-legged snake patterns and said, "There are indeed many four-legged snakes, and now they are called Chinese Shilongzi. Hakka people and some places are also called Longcrawler. When I was a child, I killed one and fed my cat."
The third brother nodded and agreed, "Xiaohong is right. This thing is nothing scary. It's called a dog woman in our place."
