Chapter 160: Water Burial of Strange Snakes
Xiao Yu and the others raised the miner's lamp to shine it, and sure enough, about ten meters in front of them, a wooden boat was tied by two chains, lying quietly on the water, blocking their way.
How can there be a ship here? Xiao Yu stood up and took a closer look by the light of the mine, this is a small wooden boat, covered with a layer of wooden cover, it looks very similar to the canopy boat in the Jiangnan Water Town, but its shed is completely covered with the hull, and the whole looks like a shuttle lying on the water! Under the illumination of the light, bursts of golden light are reflected!
"Oh my God!" After seeing the true face of this ship, Xiao Yu couldn't help but gasp: "This ship is actually made of golden silk nanmu!" ”
Golden silk is a very precious high-quality material, because the luster of the wood is very strong, even if it is not painted, the brighter it becomes. Because the earlier Nanmu was mostly a large material, and the tree had few straight knots, the texture was smooth and not easy to deform, and it was not rotten or moth-eaten for thousands of years, so it ranked first among the white woods in addition to hardwood, and its wood value was also above some hardwoods.
Throughout the ages, whether it is the emperor, ministers, or relatives of the emperor, all praise Nanmu as a domestic precious wood. It is said that in ancient times, the royal family had a special department for the purchase of golden silk nanmu, at that time, officials around the country regarded the golden silk nanmu as a top priority, and the officials could use the golden silk nanmu as a performance appraisal and promotion standard, and the civilians could be officials by offering a golden silk nanmu. The golden silk nanmu that built the Forbidden City came from Emei, Sichuan, when the Shu road was difficult to go to the blue sky, and there was a saying that a nanmu was a life. The reputation of Nanmu is outside, and the people are also well aware of its preciousness, and even have a pound of golden silk Nan and a pound of gold leaves, which shows the preciousness of this golden silk Nanmu.
And about the golden silk nanmu, there is also a very famous allusion, that is, 'Qianlong steals wood'!
Qianlong, known as Hongli, was the fourth son of Emperor Yongzheng, who inherited the throne after the death of Yongzheng, changed to Qianlong, and was the sixth emperor of the Qing Dynasty. He reigned for 60 years and served as the emperor for another three years, at the age of 89, the oldest emperor of China's feudal emperors, and called himself "the perfect old man". When Qianlong succeeded to the throne, the Qing Dynasty went through more than 70 years of governance by the Kangxi and Yongzheng emperors, and the economy has made great progress, the society is stable, the people are healthy, and the Chinese feudal society has appeared in his hands "Kangqian Prosperous Era".
However, in history, Qianlong actually stole wood, but his motives were different from ordinary tomb robbers, and it is said that he robbed the tomb in order to obtain the Nanmu pillar in the mausoleum. This is also known as stealing beams and changing columns.
It is rumored in the capital that there are noses and eyes, saying that Qianlong took a fancy to the golden silk nanmu of the Ming Tomb, so he repaired the Ming Tomb as a cover, "demolished the big and changed the small", "stole the beams and replaced the columns", and removed the good materials to build the Shouling Tomb for himself. It is indeed recorded in the information that Qianlong repaired the Ming Tomb and brought back a large number of Ming Tomb materials, including golden silk nanmu. In modern archaeology, archaeologists have also seen the use of wood, masonry and stone from the Ming Dynasty in the building materials of the Qing Tombs.
But later, Qianlong's tomb was also stolen, I don't know if this is the cause and effect in the dark!
I really don't know how much it can be worth such a huge golden silk nanmu boat!
It's just that such a valuable ship appeared in front of several people, and it couldn't help but reveal a trace of weirdness! The two bronze chains that held the hull of the ship were rusty and most likely thousands of years old.
"What do we do now?" Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Xiao Yu and Zhang Yufan, and her face also showed nervousness: "How do I feel, why does this boat look so much like a coffin for Miao water burial!" ”
The value of golden silk nanmu is extraordinary, coupled with its incorruptible characteristics, in history, most of them were indeed made into coffins by the powerful.
But doesn't water burial scatter the ashes of the deceased into the river? How could anyone make a ship-shaped coffin to be buried!
Seeing a few people with doubts on their faces, Yu Xiaoxiao sighed and explained: "The Miao people have a kind of floating corpse burial, that is, they put people on wood, put them in the river, and float with him, maybe this is!" ”
Several people in the audience suddenly fell into deep thought, if it is really as Yu Xiaoxiao said, then wouldn't the golden silk nanmu boat be a moving coffin?
"What to do? I think this ship is a little weird! Do you want us to break it? Su Ying frowned and said.
"No! This ship is strange everywhere, and if something happens, I think it's better to cut off those two bronze chains and let them float away! Xiao Yu frowned and asked Zhang Yufan's opinion.
"Yes! Be careful! Zhang Yufan nodded at him.
"What? Shall I go? Xiao Yu was taken aback.
"What do you say?" Zhang Yufan smiled bitterly: "There are only six of us on this boat, two of them are unconscious, two are injured, and I want to control this bamboo raft, not you, who else?" ”
"Okay!"
Zhang Yufan controlled the bamboo raft to slowly approach the golden silk nanmu, and when he was about three or four meters away from the boat, he saw Xiao Yu take an arrow step and jump up.
After getting on the golden silk nanmu boat, Xiao Yu first began to carefully look at the hull of the ship, and found that there were no gaps in the upper and lower parts of the boat, as if it were natural.
Could it be that this ship was carved from a single piece of golden silk nanmu?
However, this is no longer a problem that Xiao Yu is thinking about now, I saw him grasp Qingmang tightly, slowly walked to a bronze iron chain, and with a swing of his sword, he cut off a chain.
One of the two chains was broken, the original fixation was suddenly unstable, the boat was jolted, and began to change direction along the flow of the dark river, Xiao Yu was about to cut off the other chain at this time, just when he was about to signal Zhang Yufan to lean the bamboo raft aside, he was surprised to find that the three people on the bamboo raft were motionless, and Yu Xiaoxiao was even more pouting at himself!
What does she do? Do you have cramps in your face?
At this moment, Xiao Yu's body shook suddenly, and then he felt as if he was being targeted by something, and a chill swam along the soles of his feet.
Because he heard a strange sound of "hiss" and "hiss" at this time!
No way!
Xiao Yu turned his head in twilight, and then a huge face appeared behind him.
What'sTheFuck!
Why is this thing again?!
Xiao Yu was terrified in his heart, because at some point, there was a huge python hanging behind him, the scales and armor around his body were bursting up, the lower half of his body was hidden in the dark, only the upper body hung down, a huge snake head was more than a meter wide, and a pair of eyes the size of a volleyball were staring at Xiao Yu tightly, and the snake letter with the thickness of a fist was swallowed and spit out, less than a meter away from Xiao Yu's cheeks.
What's going on? Why are there such big snakes living in the waters at the bottom of the black coffin, do these corpse kings like to raise snakes? But how did these guys grow so big?
Seeing Xiao Yu turn his head, the giant snake hissed and grew its mouth to swallow it, according to its volume, not to mention a Xiao Yu, even an elephant is not enough to see.
It is said that people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and today Xiao Yu can be regarded as seeing the main master!
"Ah~~~~~h
Xiao Yu was shocked by this huge force, but he did not fall into the water, and at the last moment, Su Ying jumped up and hugged him, and then the two fell heavily on the bamboo raft.
"Oh my God! Is this a dragon? At this time, Yu Xiaoxiao was also stunned by the giant snake in front of her: "No, the dragon doesn't seem to be like this!" It's a giant serpent...... Oh, my God! Did this snake grow up drinking Sanlu milk powder? Why is it so huge......"
"Zhang Yufan, do you want to think of a way?"
"How do I figure it out?" Zhang Yufan's face couldn't see anywhere, he smiled bitterly: "Our Heavenly Master's Mansion has a hand in dealing with corpses or demons and monsters, but this guy is a giant beast~~~~ How do you let me deal with this thing?" ”
Just when everyone was shocked and inexplicable, there was a loud bang, the giant snake fell from the top of the cave suddenly, impartially, just landed on the golden silk nanmu boat, the huge impact splashed the water splashed and shook the bamboo raft back and forth, if it weren't for Zhang Yufan's desperate support, I am afraid that this bamboo raft would have been overturned by a big wave!
