Chapter 003: Chupe's Tomb
"It's not early, let's go down early, the follow-up work is complicated, and I have to work hard. Wen Yanzhi leaned over and opened the iron box in front of him, "What is down there is still unknown, get ready to pack and go down." ”
He decisively took out a set of equipment and began to put it on, "Uncle Liu, you can bring an assistant down, there are too many people and it is inconvenient to act." ”
"Okay," he turned his head and glanced at it, "Xiao Gu, you go down with us." ”
"Ahh Yan Ran, who was named, was pulled back from her thoughts, and she stepped aside, took out the mask and put it on. The people around looked at her incredulously, Director Liu asked a girl who had not yet graduated to go to the grave, what did he think, she had no experience at all.
Yan Ran didn't think much about it, but he was embarrassed to be stared at by everyone, and buried his head lower.
"Yo, I can't see it, it's a veteran. A man next to Wen Yanzhi couldn't help but admire Yan Ran's skillful movements.
Hearing him say this, Director Liu laughed even more happily, "Don't underestimate her, it's amazing." The tone was as proud as praising his own daughter.
After a long time, when she remembered this incident, she couldn't remember the reaction of other people at that time, but she remembered that she saw Wen Yanzhi look at her lightly, and she didn't know what emotion was in her eyes, and then turned her head away.
The tunnel has been located, and technicians have spent a day partially ventilating the main tunnel.
They walked down the stone steps slowly, Wen Yanzhi turned on the detection light and walked at the front, and among the six people who accompanied him, only Gu Yanran was a girl, she was in the middle, followed by Liu Wei'an.
After descending the stone steps, the roads on both sides lead farther, and the front is pitch black, and you can't see anything clearly. Yan Ran didn't dare to think about anything else, so he could only focus on the front intently.
"It's really big enough, I haven't reached the main tomb after walking for a long time. Immediately following Yan was one of them who had just come with Wen Yanzhi, who had not stopped since entering the tomb, and had been sighing in the back, which made her a little upset.
"Be quiet, okay, don't make noise, let you talk to the tomb owner later. Yan Ran turned his head and glanced at him dissatisfied.
The few people who accompanied him laughed when they heard this.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, carrying the smell of decay in the tomb that had been sealed for thousands of years, which made people shiver, and several people stopped laughing and tensed their nerves and walked forward.
The man in the back was obviously startled by the just right gust of wind, and immediately stopped his voice, and followed cautiously behind, which was much quieter.
After walking for nearly half an hour, I saw the light, which was dark and deep, without a trace of temperature.
The burial chamber in front of it was not enclosed, but was directly connected to the corridor, and a hole was opened for only one person to pass through.
When I walked into the tomb, I found that there were eight night pearls placed on the rock wall, which was particularly dazzling in the dark tomb.
There is a sarcophagus in the tomb, surrounded by all kinds of jewels and jade, even if it has been sealed in this place for so many years, it still does not lose its luxurious color.
Apparently, this is the main burial chamber.
A person behind him walked to the sarcophagus and knocked on it, approached it and listened to the voice: "The coffin is a little thick, but there are gaps, there should be no problem in opening it." He turned his head to look at Wen Yanzhi, and when he saw him nodding, he motioned for several people to push the top of the sarcophagus away.
It was not difficult to push it away, and the four of them worked together to push the coffin open, revealing an unusual green light from the inside, which was even more mysterious under the reflection of the night pearls around it.
Several people looked at each other, and then one vigorously pushed them halfway away.
Seeing this, Yan Ran stepped forward to find out, but suddenly a strong force next to her pulled her back, and she turned her head to look at the person behind her.
"Girls, don't be frizzy, here is no better than outside, be careful in everything. Dropping that sentence, Wen Yanzhi walked towards the sarcophagus.
Several other people looked in at the same time, and suddenly exclaimed.
"Good boy, it's a jade coffin. Although Director Liu was wearing a protective mask, he could detect his unconcealable excitement from his tone.
"It's amazing that I've lived so long and seen such a pure jade coffin for the first time. Lao Li touched the jade coffin and sighed.
"Boss, is the jade coffin still open?" Nie Yu'an knocked on the jade coffin and looked up at Wen Yanzhi.
Nie Yu'an was the one who made her ears hurt all the way.
But Wen Yanzhi, who had always been resolute, hesitated, and he stared at the jade coffin without speaking.
At this moment, a voice broke the silence: "There is a discovery!"
Everyone's eyes and hearts were drawn by the sound.
"I found a row of inscriptions, it may be a text of the foundation, which of you can understand, the identity of the tomb owner may be inside. ”
Everyone turned to the other side of the stone coffin, the position of this row of words is a bit obscure, under the guidance of the person who found it, everyone found a few inscriptions on the bottom side of the stone coffin.
After too long, these words are a little worn, plus some dust, and I can't see clearly what is written.
"Wait for someone to clean it up and see what's written. Several people shone flashlights on the sarcophagus, but they still couldn't see clearly.
"I'll take a look. Gu Yanran, who had not spoken, took a step forward, and since she entered the tomb, her heart had been beating wildly, and she could feel a sense of familiarity filling her senses.
A few people who were squatting immediately got up to give up their positions. Director Liu also nodded undeniably, he knew that Gu Yanran had this ability.
She squatted down, put the flashlight aside, and stroked the position of the engraved words with her right hand, and her brain connected to describe the concave touch on her hand, the glyph was slender, extending downward, dense at the top and sparse at the bottom, "It's a small seal." ”
The eyes around lit up, but they didn't see anything after looking at it for a long time, but she found some doorways as soon as she touched it.
"What is written on it, can you know?" Nie Yu'an's curiosity couldn't make him quiet at all.
"Wait. "The words are not deeply engraved, not in a well-lit place, and it is impossible to make out what the words are, and it will take some time for her to recognize them like this.
When she touched the third word, her hand shook, her breathing was a little short, and she was ...... If the fourth word is the word "mourning", then ...... That's it.
After some conjecture in her heart, the touch in her hand became more obvious, and every stroke fit seamlessly with the word in her head.
Mourn, mourn!
The last few words don't need to be touched, she also knows a rough idea, Linhuai Princess Liu Chupei was called "Kang Ai" after her death, and she was named "Linhuai Kang Ai Princess".
She lowered her hand and stared at the sarcophagus silently.
"Xiao Gu, do you have the identity of the tomb owner?" Director Liu guessed that she already knew the identity of the tomb owner
"Princess Linhuai Kangai, Liu Chupei. Gu Yanran exhaled and said word by word.
"The sister of Liu Chuyu, the princess of Shanyin?" Director Liu has a deep involvement in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, although Liu Chupei's historical records are very few, but he still said her other identity.
"Hmm. She turned her head to look at Wen Yanzhi, but to her disappointment, he was standing behind everyone, just looking at the typesetting, and there was not a trace of fluctuation in his eyes.
"Open the jade coffin. He gave the order suddenly, and his voice sounded heavier than when he was outside.
Several people got up again, pried the jade coffin open a corner, and together they lifted it.
To everyone's surprise, after opening the jade coffin, it was not the third coffin, but the tomb owner.
"It turned out that it was not a jade coffin, it was a jade coffin. "Very few people use only one coffin, but the coffin is made of the finest jade.
took the flashlight and shone it down, everyone was dumbfounded, this body remained intact, although most of the clothes had been corrupted, but the body was not exposed, the outer layer of leather still existed, but the skin backbone was deflated, and the hands were folded on the abdomen, and the remains could be seen to be safe.
"There is no mercury infused into the jade coffin, how can the bones not rot. The person next to him carefully inspected the wall of the jade coffin and found no mercury.
Wen Yanzhi stood aside, frowning, staring at the jade coffin without saying a word.
Yan Ran finally moved his pace, slowly walked to the jade coffin, and looked inside. The clothes inside had long since lost their original color, and had become only rags, and the jewelry on their heads was scattered inside.
Nie Yu'an looked at Wen Yanzhi in front of him and stared at the people inside, and Gu Yanran also looked at it directly, and quipped: "Little sister, don't you panic when you look at it like that?"
"This is not Liu Chupei's tomb. Yan Ran looked at the bones in the tomb and thought about the words on the sarcophagus, this possibility is extremely high.
"What ......? isn't it Liu Chupei's tomb?" the person next to him was a little puzzled, "Whose is that?"
Yanran looked at Wen Yanzhi and saw that he was listening to herself intently, and she knew that he was waiting for her answer.
"Her sister. "She has powerful words," Liu-Chu-Yu. ”
