"What did you find here the last time you came?" Gu Yanran couldn't help but ask when he saw that he seemed very familiar with the situation in the tomb.

"Are you sure you want to know?" Wen Yanzhi turned his head to look at her, even in the darkness, Gu Yanran could see a flash of light in his eyes.

She couldn't help but wonder what Wen Yanzhi meant, "Is there anything else I can't know?"

"Not really, it's just that this is Liu Chupei's tomb, thinking about it, you will definitely care about it. Wen Yanzhi said, and the light in his eyes gradually faded.

"What's the use of caring about it? But it's just turned into a pile of white bones, and it's true to live well now, isn't it?" Gu Yanran smiled with relief, "Okay, don't sell it, tell me quickly, I feel a little strange in it, but I can't tell what is strange." ”

"The burial chamber outside? ”

Gu Yanran was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Wen Yanyi to open her mouth like this, "What do you mean by this? ”

"Hmm. ”

Wen Yanzhi's tone didn't seem like he was joking, and Gu Yanran suddenly felt a trace of panic, "Do you have any evidence? You said it was fake." ”

"Didn't you notice? The tomb down there is much bigger than the one above. And what you just walked over is only a part of it, you don't see the other parts at all, the area should be dozens of times larger than the part just now, and the bottom is the main burial chamber. ”

"What?" Gu Yanran began to tremble uncontrollably as soon as he thought of a certain possibility, "What do you mean...... The one lying on it...... Not Liu Chupei?"

Wen Yanzhi nodded.

Gu Yanran looked at him in disbelief, "Impossible, what are you kidding! Then how could it be Liu Chupei's tomb, her name is on the sarcophagus, and besides, the female corpse has burn marks on the right side of her face, I am sure, it is Liu Chupei! Am I still mistaken?"

"Yanran, I told you a long time ago that what you see with your eyes is not necessarily true, what you see is just what others want us to see, can you understand?"

"Since you said that it is not true, then you say, whose tomb is that tomb? Where is the real Liu Chupei buried?"

"I can't answer these two questions for the time being, and I'm still researching them, but what I can tell you for sure is that the one buried above is really not Liu Chupei. ”

"How is that possible...... How could it be ......" Gu Yanran muttered to herself, what happened today made her unacceptable for a while, she had great doubts about this tomb, and now Wen Yanzhi told her that this was not her tomb.

These things are coming, how can she bear it?

"Do you know who buried her here?"

Gu Yanran raised his head and looked at Wen Yanzhi, could it be that he knew about it?

"It's Wang Ying, that is, Liu Chupei's concubine, you should know this best, the one buried on it is not Liu Chupei, but Liu Chupei should be buried somewhere here, where it is, I can't be sure. ”

"Are you so sure?" Gu Yanran didn't have this idea, but now there is no evidence that completely points to the fact that Yan Zhi buried her here.

"Do you remember? You asked me to see if there were any words on the sarcophagus? I later found the words 'beloved wife' at the bottom of the sarcophagus, you should know better than me. Who carved these two words?"

These two words must have been carved after the burial to mourn the deceased, then I

Let me ask you again, if you are an ordinary person, where will you engrave an inscription for your deceased wife?"

How could Gu Yanran not understand the meaning of his words, the inscription and eulogy are generally engraved on the stele or sarcophagus, and no one will engrave the words at the bottom.

Wen Yanzhi saw that she understood, so she continued, "I only thought of these two words last time when I discovered them. ”

On that day, he also lay his whole body at the bottom of the sarcophagus to see those two words. This shows that these two words were carved by someone in a lying position.

Coupled with the fact that there was another empty chamber at the bottom of the sarcophagus found in the upper chamber earlier, he determined that the upper chamber and the lower chamber were directly connected, and the person who wrote the inscription at that moment was directly in this layer of the chamber and engraved the bottom of the previous sarcophagus.

Now the problem is that they have to find the space on this level of the burial chamber above.

"Actually, I've always had a question for you. Wen Yanzhi saw Gu Yanran pondering, and couldn't help but ask.

"You say. ”

"Was that piece of jade held in Liu Chupei's hand before he died?"

Gu Yanran shook her head, this was the first time she had told him about it, "No, no, I lost that piece of jade a long time ago, and I don't know what happened, it will return to the corpse." ”

"Who do you think it will be?"

"It's you, oh no, him. Gu Yanren pondered for a while, and felt that at this moment, it was better not to provoke him because of the title, he was too easy to get angry now.

"Is something important?" Wen Yanzhi continued.

"Important! Gu Yanran nodded desperately, "He knows about this, and the jade was also given to me by him, I always carry it with me on weekdays, and I sometimes take it out to play with, he knows that I like this piece of jade very much, and sometimes I feel distressed when I bump it a little." ”

"So you think that piece of jade is your piece?"

Gu Yanran's heart was shocked, and she began to doubt her judgment, the previous piece of jade, the middle had been hollowed out, and it was filled with mercury.

Now that I think about it, this matter is a little strange, it is clearly her favorite jade, she must know it, he can't dig a hole in the jade, the corpse was originally immersed in mercury, there is no need to use such a small space in the jade to store mercury for embalming.

"But that piece of jade is indeed mine, and even the shape is exactly the same. Gu Yanran was stunned as soon as he finished saying this.

Yes, the shape is exactly the same, which does not mean that the texture of the jade is the same. And it was so dark in the tomb at that time, she didn't see the specific appearance clearly, so she secretly hid.

Wen Yanzhi saw that Gu Yanran was a little convinced, so he continued: "After a person dies, the corpse will become stiff, and it is impossible for that piece of jade to be held tightly in her hand at all. So you understand? The corpse is fake. Jade is also fake. ”

"But why did he do this?" Gu Yanran felt that his thoughts were a little confused at the moment.

"Then you'll have to ask him. Wen Yanzhi raised his hand and looked at his watch, "There are five minutes to open the next door, and you will know what the principle of this space is." ”

"I want to go and see!" Gu Yanran looked at him firmly, originally she wanted to wait to go out early tomorrow morning, but when she heard Wen Yanzhi's words, she made up her mind to go in and have a look.

"If you go inside, you won't necessarily be able to get out. Wen Yanzhi frowned, but he didn't immediately object.

"Perhaps

It's where I belong. Gu Yanran smiled bitterly, whether she was Liu Chupei or Gu Yanran, she was buried here, and it didn't seem to be a bad thing to think about.

"I haven't walked through this door, I don't know what will be inside, you are not afraid, if you are not afraid, I will accompany you. Wen Yanzhi took her hand and walked diagonally forward.

The warmth of his fingertips was not as warm as the warmth in his heart, Gu Yanran bit his lower lip, "I thought you would stop me." ”

"Is it useful to stop you?" Wen Yanzhi rubbed her head helplessly, "Just wait and follow me." ”

Gu Yanran nodded, she hadn't said anything yet, but a hole suddenly appeared in front of her, which looked exactly like the one just now, if Wen Yanzhi hadn't told her that there were twelve holes here, she would definitely admit her mistake.

Gu Yanran breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's go." ”

It's a mule or a horse that comes out to slip around, and what's in it will be known when you go in and see.

As Gu Yanran expected, and as she expected, there were still stone walls in the cave, and there were still paintings carved in stone on the stone walls, "In other words, can you understand what these mean?"

"I guess it's a lifetime story. Wen Yanzhi also leaned over and looked at the painting on the stone wall.

Gu Yanran gently stroked it with his hand, whose life is it?

The murals here are obviously different from the content just now, Gu Yanran glanced over and memorized the scenes inside.

She was just about to withdraw her gaze when she suddenly felt a little familiar, and she looked back at the place where she had just arrived, and the simple stone carvings outlined a familiar outline.

It's the city gate!

After Gu Yanran made this discovery, he stared at the stone carving again.

Wen Yanzhi stood aside and did not speak, looking at her quietly.

Gu Yanran's eyes were slightly moist, and she suddenly understood the content of the painting, although it was very simple, but she could see that it was the scene when she sent him off that day.

Wen Yanzhi is right, it is a record of her life and the past, and it is all her and him's business.

Gu Yanran walked along the stone wall, she looked down all the way, and the tears finally couldn't stop flowing, and the sourness in her heart became more and more serious.

The mural above is a time-based story of her and him, and she suddenly remembered what she had just seen in another cave:

River, street, two people......

It turned out that it was the first time the two of them met on the Shangyuan Festival......

In Gu Yanran's mind, the murals after the first encounter seemed to have corresponding scenes, and everything was connected into a main line.

But...... Why did she only reach the second cave, and she was already painted when they were separated, when she was dying, "Anyway, do you remember what kind of murals you have created?"

"It's different from what is painted here...... There is only one person. ”

Gu Yanran's heart was shocked! There was only one person! That was to say, she should have died at that time.

That is to say, what is engraved in several other caves is what happened after her death!

Gu Yanran was excited, there is no record in these history books, maybe this is the only record of what happened in the late Southern Song Dynasty more than a thousand years ago.

Gu Yanran wanted to share this good news with Wen Yanzhi immediately.

"You know what? I found it" Gu Yanran turned around, her smile frozen, and she looked behind her in disbelief.

It's empty, and there's no one......
