Chapter 62: Tai Sui's head is groundbreaking
Mu Feng felt as if he had touched on a relatively taboo topic, and he didn't dare to ask it, not because he didn't dare to ask about Ying, but because he didn't dare to ask himself. Is it acceptable for a man to fall in love? Isn't it an abnormal form xiàn?
Soon Mu Feng's attention was diverted, and he believed that the attention of any male compatriot would be diverted by this thing.
It is said that Mu Feng and Ying Wei found the cemetery without much effort under Xiao Huang's detailed oral road map, which is a wasteland, not far from the road. And it is not a thick burial tomb, just from the outside, there is not even a stone tablet, it is just a flat land.
If you don't look closely, you can't see that there is a hole less than two fingers wide in the ground that drills down, and the width of two fingers is Xiao Huang's current waist circumference, which belongs to the thin man in the snakes, and the dragon is the size of a child. Xiao Huang drilled out of the ground through the hole of guò, and below this is the coffin that has undergone the zombie mutation.
Of course, Mu Feng will not conclude that they have found the right position based on just one hole, but the smell coming out of this hole is difficult to ignore, not to mention the ghost qi it carries, the rancid smell alone can smoke people's faces.
Mu Feng and Ying Wei put on masks and other equipment and immediately excavated, the coffin was not buried deeply, they shoveled for about ten minutes, and they saw a zombie head plug. On the coffin board.
This posture is a little hideous, it can be seen that when the zombie swindles the corpse from inside, its head directly pierces the coffin board, but before it has time to do anything, it is restrained by Xiao Huang's dragon energy, and you can see the two tooth marks in the center of the zombie's brain, which are bitten by Xiao Huang, directly injecting the dragon qi like a flame into its body for the zombie, so that it is finished at once.
The zombie's eyes widened and he couldn't bat at a glance, because it was the dragon qi that destroyed the zombie's corpse qi from the inside, so now this zombie is no different from ordinary rotting corpses, and even exudes a smell of decay and burning, which is especially pungent in the July weather.
Mu Feng first gave it a purification spell to eliminate the remaining corpse qi on its body, and then held up the lid of the coffin with Ying Wei and carried it out with the zombies.
The funerary goods in the coffin were not so much gold as a set of books.
It must be said that the scene after the coffin was opened was a little different from what Xiao Huang described, and Xiao Huang said that he thought that gold was cheesy and had no value in collecting, but these things in front of him were very different.
These gold is not worthless, the wooden seal picked up a piece casually, it is a gold brick sample, the front is the word "Qianlong Jinbao", the reverse side is a dragon, indicating that this is the gold brick of the Qing Dynasty, its collection value is not low, because it is the palace is not in circulation, and there are very few handed down. A gold brick like this, about the length of an index finger, is covered with thousands of pieces in the coffin, covering the entire bottom of the coffin, which is equivalent to saying that the corpse is sleeping on the gold brick.
This is what Mu Feng said is not so much that the funeral goods are gold bricks, but that the gold bricks are only a part of the coffin, and the main funeral goods are still the set of books.
I don't know what embalming technology is used in this book, and there is no sign of damage when placed next to a corpse, there are five volumes in total, and on the top cover is a line of words written in red cinnabar on a wooden seal that I don't understand, which looks very much like Manchu.
"Bring it back and let Lao Zhang translate, he understands Manchu." Ying Wei carefully took out this set of books, he flipped through it casually, and it was all Manchu recorded in red cinnabar, which he didn't understand.
In addition to the gold brick coffin and the set of books, there is also a gold box in the coffin, which is slightly smaller than the palm of a human hand.
The box is unlocked, and you can see what's inside just by lifting the lid.
Mu Feng felt it, there was no strange aura, but for the sake of safety, he didn't take it in his hand and opened it, but put it on the ground, found a branch and picked up the box, it was indeed not dangerous, but it successfully made Mu Feng and Ying Rebellious's faces darken all of a sudden.
Mu Feng was eerily silent for a moment, and finally found his voice, "I didn't expect this to be a eunuch's graveyard. ”
It's normal for there to be strange things in the tomb, but the first time I saw the broken cucumber after the eunuch was cleansed, this picture was too impactful, and it really had to be slow.
Mu Feng used to listen to the shopkeeper say a few words at will, after the eunuch cleansed, the cucumber will be retained, with some special storage methods, that method made Mu Feng's scalp numb, but his memory is not bad to remember.
It is washed with water, then fried thoroughly in sesame oil, and after the oil has dried, it is wrapped in an oily silk bag containing Babaosan and packed in a yellow cloth bag to store the characteristics of zài. The name of the owner of the item and the date of manufacture are affixed to it.
This thing is stored in the zài palace, and the eunuchs will try to redeem it before they die, and they must be brought to the cemetery together, and the body must be kept healthy.
Ying Wei had already quickly closed the golden box, and it was the first time he had encountered the tomb of a eunuch, and it was only because there was no tombstone in this cemetery, so they could not judge the identity of the deceased in advance.
"But it's a little strange, the zombie's clothes and hairstyle all show that he is a Qing Dynasty person, Xiao Huang also said that the formation of corpse gas will not exceed two hundred years, generally speaking, the eunuchs of the Qing Dynasty are buried in Zhongguancun after death, which used to be called Zhongguan Tomb, and before the Republic of China, it was the burial place of the eunuchs in the palace. How could the person in front of us be buried alone in the suburbs of Beijing? ”
Needless to say, Mu Feng can also guess that this eunuch who mutated into a zombie was not an ordinary person before his death, he was a eunuch with a story, and he could use gold bricks to pave the coffin, but there was no monument, and even the wood of the coffin was not a precious wood.
Mu Feng originally wanted to search the body of a zombie to see if there would be clues on this person's body, but he was rebellious and volunteered to do it for him.
"It's better for me to come, why don't you pack up these gold bricks, we still have to find a place to burn this zombie so that there are no hidden dangers."
Ying Wei said as he touched the zombie's body and stripped it of only a layer of underwear. Mu Feng didn't want to know how Ying Reverse could be so skilled in picking up clothes, facing a zombie corpse, he was able to keep his face from changing his color, and he also had real skills.
Mu Feng took all the gold bricks into the bag, he emptied the coffin, and when he was sure that there was nothing left, he split the coffin, mixed it into the firewood they had prepared beforehand, and built a firewood pile. When the search was over, the zombie was ignited, and a black mist rushed into the sky, slowly waiting for the corpse to be burned to the ashes. Of course, they didn't forget to cremate the cucumbers in the golden box.
It's a wasteland, and no one finds out what they're doing.
Good people do it to the end and send the Buddha to the West.
Ying Wei had already bought a cemetery to bury the ashes, including the small gold box in which the eunuch was buried. He didn't feel hot when he took the gold bricks, but this box with some special parts, he really didn't have that heavy taste.
Otherwise, how to explain it in the future, don't think that this is just a gold box, which once held the most important part of a man? Then can you still talk properly?
After finishing this qiē, Ying Wei first carried the wooden seal home, and the two took a good bath, of course, they washed it separately, washing away the corpse gas on their bodies, and then the two of them went back to the widow's house to have dinner with the shopkeeper Zhang. The main thing is not to eat, but to ask the shopkeeper to translate the set of Manchu books.
After the Xinhai Revolution, the Manchu language was basically not used much, and now people who can speak Manchu can still find some in the Northeast, but to say that they are proficient in Manchu and know how to read and write, only those old scholars in the research institute remain, and the young generation dare not take on the word proficient.
Mu Feng was a little curious about why the shopkeeper of the chapter would, but he didn't have to ask about the plan, who didn't have some secrets.
"Found in the coffin of a eunuch?" Shopkeeper Zhang listened to the incomplete version of the gravedigger (that is, Xiao Huang and the corpse turned into zombies), he was also a little surprised, and there was no clue in his mind to point out who the eunuch was.
He glanced at the book cover and frowned, ""Treasure Hunting, the name of this book is really straightforward. ”
Shopkeeper Zhang opened the first page and took a breath of cold air to see what was written on it.
It is said that in the last years of Qianlong, some people felt that the last dragon vein had begun to come to an end, and the aura between heaven and earth had undergone great changes, which might cause chaos in the heavens, but it was a great time for them to find the supreme treasure. 'In the past, there were nine tripods, nine tripods gathered, and the mountains and rivers changed. Change the trend of Jedi Tiantong, and you can expect to turn into a god. ’
Shopkeeper Zhang only read a page, the things on it are too bizarre, Rao is he is well-informed, and he is also a little blinded, "Boss, this book is really not a strange novel?" ”
"Don't care how weird it is, Lao Zhang, just translate it truthfully, do your best, and keep it secret."
Ying Disobedience didn't explain much, if this thing wasn't bizarre enough, how could it be buried with a mysterious eunuch.
Ying Wei handed over the book to the shopkeeper Zhang, but he and Mu Feng were not idle, and since they found the head of the eunuch, they had to mention one person.
"Do you remember the old Wei who committed suicide in the Forbidden City?" Ying Wei remembered the old man he met when he encountered a ghost mirror in the Forbidden City a few months ago, the one who didn't say a few words to them, was weird, and stabbed a dagger into the heart and died. "Later, when I heard Zhao Qiao say that he was buried with him, I learned that Lao Wei was also a eunuch."
Of course, Mu Feng remembered Lao Wei, the gatekeeper who could open half of the hidden room of the Forbidden City with three copper coins, but he didn't expect that he was also a eunuch. But it's quite reasonable, he was born in the court, died in the court, and he can't get out of it in this life.
"I thought that eunuchs should have disappeared for many years, and they were generally not encountered in life, but who would have thought that this encounter would meet two. Are we going to find a third? ”
"Originally, I didn't want to, but today's digging of this coffin gave me some ideas. The ghost mirror is sealed in the Forbidden City, and someone always knows who put it in? According to the recollections, at least it was not Qin Yi or Daochang Qiu, it was there before they found out. There should be a secret in this. I don't know exactly what those books are written about, but when the shopkeeper finishes translating them, I think it's necessary for us to look for the eunuchs who are still alive, although we may not be able to get useful clues. ”
Mu Feng also knows that the clues are always intermittent, one puzzle solves another, and they need to have enough patience and perseverance to uncover the dusty history.
