"Xu Wei, this is an invitation letter from the Anya Museum in Sichuan Province, you can take a look. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xu Wei took it and flipped through it carefully. It seems that there is a new job assignment.

Xu Wei is a researcher at the Institute of Archaeology.

Looking at the picture in his hand steadily, this is a sarcophagus of the Han Dynasty, the sarcophagus is ordinary, but the content carved on it is much rarer. On the rectangular wall is a man and a woman leading a horse and walking slowly, with a large blank space, while on the other side is a man and a woman kissing each other across the desk, with affection and candles. Another stone wall that is almost square is carved with a double que, which is the way to the heavens, and in the middle of the double que is a woman waiting.

What did the owner of the sarcophagus want to leave behind, what do you want to express?

With only a few pictures in hand, it's hard to deduce anything. Gently rub your temples and think about it later!

"Xiaowei, let's have some mineral water!" Xu Wei replied with a smile, "Thank you, Director Zhou." Director Zhou is the leader of the archaeological team, responsible for archaeological excavation and cultural relics restoration. There are 28 staff members in the team this time, and the elite in the museum accounts for two-thirds, which shows the importance of this archaeological activity, and it should also be one of the archaeological discoveries of this year.

Okay, do it well, don't put too much pressure on yourself, Xu Wei said silently in her heart.

Entering the archaeological site, a smell of decay came to my face. I whispered silently in my heart, I got used to it, I got used to it. After passing through the tomb passage, the east and west ear chambers, and coming to the main coffin room, I only saw a lone sarcophagus standing there. Xu Wei's heart trembled, single coffin. The thousand-year-old kiss picture appeared on a single coffin, presumably the owner of the tomb was also unsatisfactory.

The excavation work was carried out for more than ten days, and many cultural relics were sorted out. This Han tomb splits the mountain for the mausoleum, splits the stone mountain from the top, chises out a vertical hole in the shape of a plane "convex", and then opens the horizontal hole from the east and west sides of the front end into an ear chamber, and opens up a slope tomb road in the south. The tomb owner lives in the middle room at the back, the front hall and the back library, the front part is the ear room, and the rear part is the side room. It stands to reason that the identity of the owner of the tomb is either rich or expensive, but so far, no evidence has been found about the identity of the owner of the tomb, and it is hoped that something will be found in the sarcophagus.

The sarcophagus will be opened today.

"Xu Wei, today's task is very important, you have to observe it carefully!" Director Zhou specially instructed.

"Yes, I see. Xu Wei smiled secretly in her heart, Director Zhou asked everyone today, that excitement, I wish I could open the museum now. Also, there are no traces of theft in the tomb, and the cultural relics cleaned up before are very impressive in terms of quantity and quality. Not to mention the valuables inside the sarcophagus. It can be said that the highlight of this archaeology is to open the sarcophagus.

"Comrades, please take the tools, now we are going to start the excavation work, cheer up the spirit, be careful!" Director Zhou said in a solemn and encouraging tone.

Xu Wei and his entourage entered the main coffin room one after another, and made preparations to open the sarcophagus.

"Open!" Director Zhou ordered.

The sarcophagus is opened, and there is a wooden coffin inside, this layer is wrapped in a layer, and there are three layers in total, one coffin and three coffins, which seems to be the level of the princes, and I think it is rich in funeral goods. This time, there is a play. When I looked at the coffin, I was stunned, and a fragrant smell wafted out, and it was actually ......

Empty.

Empty, how can it be empty?

There are no robbery holes and other traces of tomb robbery in the tomb, all the items in it are intact, and the tomb passage is sealed, so why is there nothing in the sarcophagus, is it intentional, or is there another reason? So far, the epitaph has not been found, and the seal proving the owner has not been found, and even the remains of the owner have not been found.

When things go wrong, there must be demons.

Director Zhou's face was solemn and he didn't say a word. He was silent for a long time, until he realized that all the staff were watching him, and then he said, "Go on, clean up the coffin." ”

It is now close to dusk, and today's coffin opening work is over.

In the evening, the staff of our hospital gathered in the conference room to discuss the work of today's excavation site.

"Ying'er", who is shouting Ying'er. Xu Wei was stunned for a moment and looked left and right. It's suspicious, or maybe it's too heavy to work today and I'm having auditory hallucinations. Everyone is fiercely discussing the mystery of the empty coffin of the sarcophagus, analyzing all kinds of things, but there is still no unanimous opinion, which depends on the actual excavation situation in the future. However, it is worth affirming that the owner of the tomb was a prince-level figure, which can be known from the scale of the tomb, the degree of detail of the construction, and the characters that have been excavated. In addition, the back room has not yet been excavated, and it is believed that the quality of the burial goods inside is also considerable.

"Ying'er, Ying'er......", it seemed that a gentle and elegant male voice was murmuring, what's going on, is there a problem with the ear? This time it was much clearer than last time, thinking that this was an auditory hallucination, it was really an auditory hallucination. It's the archaeological excavation period, and it's not a horror movie. Shoulders trembled, forget it, don't think so much.

Suddenly, someone slapped him the shoulder.

"Ah......" The frightened shouts resounded throughout the conference room, and everyone was woken up by Xu Wei. She looked to the side, glared at the culprit, and looked back to say sorry.

"This is Xu Wei who sees that everyone is tired and panicked, so she refreshes everyone!" said the culprit.

The "culprit" is a senior researcher at the research institute, and the well-known Lin Peixuan is also. Although he is young, technology is not a problem, and he is recognized as the successor of Director Zhou. But he doesn't seem to be aiming for that.

Now that the meeting has ended, Director Zhou left Xu Wei and Lin Peixuan to have a small meeting.

"Xu Wei, let me ask you, what is the tomb for?" Lin Peixuan asked casually.

Xu Wei thought to herself, cut, and came up with some tricks. Isn't the tomb used to bury the deceased, but the resting place of the deceased underground, the home underground!

"It's the home of the dead underground!" Xu Wei replied.

"But the current situation seems to be that the owner is not at home, the owner of the tomb has gone to the door, or is it somewhere at home, or there is no owner at all!" Lin Peixuan asked rhetorically.

The information we have obtained now is that this is a Han tomb, the level is the princes, and the unearthed cultural relics are also top-notch, but none of the things involve the exact identity of the tomb owner, there are no remains in the coffin, there are murals in the tomb that have not yet been cleaned, and the key sarcophagus patterns are non-traditional, and even shocking to the world.

Come to think of it, it's another mess.

"Hinging, hinging, hinginging......", damn, here it is again. In the past few days, this voice has often lingered in Xu Wei's ears. From the initial panic to habituality, habit is a strength, and you won't feel anything if you appear a few more times.

"Director, look, there's something on the lid of this coffin. Xu Wei took a brush and swept the impurities on the lid of the decaying wooden coffin. The lid of the coffin is printed with a large palm print of a vermilion adult man, and the bloody footprints of a child are faintly hidden underneath. What is it?

"Ancient witchcraft. Director Zhou read. Director Zhou stared at the wooden plank and observed carefully: "The Chu people believe in witches, and this mark is part of the ancient witchcraft rituals. ”

Witchcraft, this thing is too mysterious. It is a belief of the ancients, and the reasons for its emergence are complex, probably due to the underdeveloped conditions of science and technology, thought, and culture at that time, and we can understand it as a culture.

Xu Wei's hand unconsciously stroked the mark, "Ying'er, Ying'er, Ying'er......" The murmuring male voice was whispering, calling for the ethereal person. At this time, Xu Wei was not panicking, but sighing.

I can't help but think of a Buddhist verse: If you don't forget, there will be an echo.

Xu Wei's body should have a problem, and since that day, Xu Wei's auditory hallucinations have increased unabated. It is most severe at midnight every day. I can't stand it, so ask Director Zhou for leave to go to the hospital!

When Xu Wei was packing up her things, Lin Peixuan walked in from the door, preparing tools for excavation work. "Hey, what's wrong with you? Lin Peixuan glanced at her and asked.

"No, I haven't had a good rest recently, I'm always ringing in my ears, and I'm going to go to the hospital to see it", Xu Wei replied honestly. In the face of him, Xu Wei only has the share of honesty.

"Let's go, I'll go with you. ”

Xu Wei looked at him suspiciously, it was raining red in the sky, why was he so kind all of a sudden. Looking at her eyes, Lin Peixuan smiled helplessly, "You're like this, I can't still fool you." Xu Wei glared again, and he smiled again: "Don't worry, I will never drop you down halfway." He touched her head. That look is like doting on a child, Xu Wei is not small.

When I came to the hospital, I went through one procedure after another, and now I am waiting for the test report to come out. According to the doctor, the cause is probably related to poor rest, turbid environment, and long-term high-intensity work, and the specific test report depends on the test report.

"What should be fought is to fight, and when it is time to rest, it is necessary to rest. Lin Peixuan and Xu Wei sat on the benches in the hospital corridor, facing the people coming and going, and talking to the air.

Five seconds later, Xu Wei reacted, this was with her.

"Hmm. With a gentle hum, Xu Wei thought about it and still opened her mouth, "Since I opened the sarcophagus, I have had this situation, I have auditory hallucinations every day, even every moment, I feel like living in a horror movie." ”

He still touched Xu Wei's head, as if he was comforting. The tense state of the mind for many days is finally relaxed at this moment. It's not that you're not afraid, it's that you're forcing yourself not to be afraid.

"That's the kind of person you are. ”

He understands Xu Wei.

In the afternoon of that day, Xu Wei and Lin Peixuan sat there, watching people come and go, mountains and rivers.

The lab report came out, and the results were shocking. Xu Wei would never have thought that the cause was mild poisoning.

Yes, on the day the coffin was opened, the unknown aromatic smell escaping from the coffin, Xu Wei was the closest to the sarcophagus, and she stayed for the longest time. What has been buried in the ground for more than 2,000 years, who knows what will be derived. It seems that Xu Wei is really "lucky", yes, this time she can apply for a work-related injury.

After a few days of recuperation, the cultural relics on the site are basically sorted out. Xu Wei was still observing the sarcophagus, which had uneven walls on the inside of the sarcophagus. It was too close to the bottom, and she bent down to lean in, and there were words. It was very deep inside, the light was too dark, and Xu Wei took a small flashlight to probe deeper. I saw it, it was Han Li's "lingering".

What, is the word "lingering", what is the relationship between this and the "lingering" called by the voice that has plagued Xu Wei for many days.

With a "poof", something broke open at the bottom of the coffin, and the strong aromatic smell suddenly filled the entire space, more than ten million times stronger than the last time.

Oh no, I won't be in the hospital again this time! I'm afraid I'm going to trouble Lin Peixuan again. At the last moment before falling into a coma, this was Xu Wei's last thought.
