Chapter Seventy-Six: Opening the Coffin
One meter seventy-five said: "That's right, I'm just giving you a wake-up call first, telling you not to move when the time comes." This coffin is not more than usual, it is opened vertically, as soon as the paint wax is opened, basically the lid can be moved, if you shake it on the top a little, the hundreds of pounds of bronze cover will be smashed down, and then I and Xiao Zhang will have no place to hide below, so we can only be smashed. ”
The junior brother sighed and promised to follow the command in all actions later. Nonsense, the three of us got to work in place. If I had borrowed ten more guts before, I would never have dared to do such a thing as opening the coffin, but recently, I have found that I have become more and more bold, and there is more and more momentum in my bones, as if I was born to do this business.
I was immediately taken aback by this thought of myself, and patted my face to cheer myself up, not to be infected by the eerie atmosphere here, I was just too fucking easily disturbed. The younger brother has already cleaned the seal at the bottom, and climbed to the top of it, the paint wax is very hard to the touch, but it can't withstand the destruction of sharp weapons, and the dagger pries a little harder, and it pries open a piece of diamond-shaped yellow wax, and it smells of a foul smell.
The junior brother's mouth is not idle for a moment, asking questions and asking questions, but fortunately, he is also willing to show off at 1.75 meters, and almost answers every question. The junior brother asked him again at this time why it was a four-layer coffin, and he might feel that it was only the two of them who spoke and snubbed me, or he might want to have one more object to show off, so he asked me: "Xiao Zhang, do you know why it is a four-layer coffin?" ”
I thought for a while and said: "Maybe it's a status symbol, in the tomb of King Shang found in Yinxu in Anyang, Henan Province in 1933, King Yin Shang used a quadruple coffin. ”
One meter seventy-five was obviously stunned for a moment, probably because he didn't expect me to be able to say one or two, laughed awkwardly, and said, "It seems that Xiao Zhang still knows a little bit...... That's right, this coffin is actually a large coffin set on the outside of the coffin, the more layers, the more gorgeous the texture and decoration of each layer, indicating that the status of the deceased is more advanced during his lifetime. The Book of Changes has a saying: 'The ancient burial is full of thick clothes, buried in the wilderness, not sealed or tree, and the mourning period is innumerable. Later generations of saints changed coffins to cover all the great transgressions. That's what I'm saying. ”
"In the Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Tianzi founded the feudal system and the patriarchal system, and the coffin was also institutionalized, and there was a text: 'The coffin of the Son of Heaven is fourfold, and the coffin of the person is called the coffin, and its outer cover is covered with buffalo skin; the second weighs the ground also, made of basswood; The third is called the genus, and the fourth is called the coffin. The emperor and queen have two coffins outside the coffin, and most of them use catalpa wood, so their coffins are also called catalpa palaces. Shanggong, Hou Bozinan, and Doctor, respectively, are three, two, and one in equal difference; The stone is not heavy, but with a large coffin. Later emperors, nobles, and scholars basically followed this system. ’”
The junior brother said, "So...... This week, the Son of Heaven only used a quadruple coffin, and the daughter of the Queen Mother of Naxi dared to use a quadruple, which shows that her identity is even more special than the Son of Heaven! So Qin Shi Huang was so self-respecting, how could he allow someone to be on an equal footing with him? ”
One meter seven five smiled: "Isn't it, if you want to say that there is a small episode in the middle!" As soon as the junior brother heard that there was still something to say, he was busy shouting on it: "What an episode, say it quickly!" ”
I told him to look at it and don't fall off, 1.75 meters smiled, and then said: "This is actually lifting a stone to shoot yourself in the foot!" After Qin unified the six kingdoms, Qin Yingzheng proclaimed himself the first emperor, declaring that this was the will of God, that the Son of Heaven was the son of God, that all the power of the Son of Heaven came from God, and that the common people must obey unconditionally. This was originally a means used by feudal rulers to deceive and control the people in order to consolidate their status and political power, but I didn't expect that there was a Queen Mother of the West, and she was also a god of bull B, and the daughter of God was naturally a goddess, and the Son of Heaven belonged to the same line, Qin Yingzheng had to admit the divine right and status of the daughter of the Queen Mother of the West in order to continue the theocracy of the "Son of Heaven", so there was a fourfold coffin. ”
As we spoke, we had almost cleaned up, the junior brother's task was the smallest, and his hands were fast, and he sat on it early in the morning and waited for us with his legs crossed. One meter seventy-five told me to dodge to the side, and he also hooked the bronze chain to retreat to a safe area, and instructed his junior brother to say two words, telling him to push his hands slowly, and once he found that there was any emergency inside, he immediately put the coffin lid back.
The junior brother agreed, while rubbing his hands, this kid was already impatient, but one meter seventy-five and verbose, it was easy to wait for him to finish his verbosity, the junior brother spit on the palm of his hand, and he sneered and pushed, the hundreds of pounds of bronze cover was pushed away with a muffled sound, and then hit the bronze chain behind, making an earth-shattering loud noise, shaking the eight large bronze chains violently together, if I didn't react quickly and lock the chain in front of me in time, I am afraid that it will be directly shocked and fly out. Although 1.75 meters is not good in physical strength, but his brain is spinning very fast, just now, between the lightning and flint, he followed my example and put his arms and legs on the chain, which was barely fixed.
The raincoat really worked, and the black powder on the coffin lid stirred up together, giving the raincoat a big arc, it is conceivable that if we didn't know the power of this strong alkali dust before, and opened the coffin without setting any protective measures, now I'm afraid that they are all fucking tuberculosis.
At this time, the junior brother suddenly shouted from above: "Look, this seems to be the pearl of the night!" As he spoke, the younger brother extinguished the flashlight, and an emerald green light really flashed on the lid of the second coffin, which very unfortunately, formed a pattern of an upright eye (blind eye), which made me feel very twisted, and I always felt that there was really an eye staring at us, and it was still fucking green.
But I can't stand the temptation of the night pearl, and there are still so many temptations together, so I try to imagine myself as a professional archaeologist and come forward to check. That night the pearl was originally embedded in the coffin lid, one was the size of a goose egg, but only half of it was exposed, and the other half was embedded in the coffin, the color was emerald green, but it was not completely transparent, and it was cool and silky when touched with your hand, and it felt very smooth.
I counted them, and the circle of the oval plus the dot in the middle was ten. The junior brother sighed above: ", I think back then, a night pearl the size of a quail egg on the phoenix crown of the Empress Dowager Cixi was worth three or four hundred thousand yuan, so these ten goose eggs are not worth the old money?!" ”
I glanced at 1.75 meters and saw that he was staring at one of them, and he didn't seem to hear his junior brother speak, so I took the opportunity to make a look at my junior brother and reminded him in a low voice: "Be honest, don't forget what you do." ”
The junior brother pursed his lips, disapproving, and saw that my heart was on fire, if this kid hadn't sat too high, I would have kicked it over a fucking long ago.
At this time, 1.75 meters suddenly slapped his head and shouted: "Oh, this fucking ......"
