In addition to staying on the shore, he was responsible for keeping an eye on several people around.

Anyone who went down to the bottom of the pond climbed to the huge stump and looked at the corpses up close.

There is an egg on the stump.

The eggs are translucent, some resembling amber.

"Amber can keep the corpse from decaying for thousands of years, it seems that this Teng country lord embalmed his body in this way. ”

Jin An, who was surrounded in front of the worm egg amber, guessed.

Worm eggs are amber, and there is a lot of promise.

There was a human figure in the worm egg amber, and this was the corpse they had just seen on the shore of the pool.

They hadn't seen the corpse in the worm egg amber clearly, and when they got close to the worm egg amber, they first heard the sound of surging water, as if there was really a dragon king calling for wind and rain, controlling the water and giving alms.

"The sound of the river gushing seems to come from the amber in front of us. ”

The old Taoist priest approached Amber, holding a torch in his hand, and couldn't wait to see what the lord of Tengguo, or the legendary Yinyi Jianglongwan, looked like.

The words of the old Taoist priest shocked many people present.

"The folk rumored dragon king, has been making waves in the Yinyi River, every rainy season to capsize a lot of merchant ships, ferries to eat people, and the sound of the river in this amber is corresponds to the folk rumored dragon king's ability, it seems that the body sealed in this amber is the dragon king we are looking for. That is, the small lord of Tengguo who has been dead for thousands of years. ”

As the abbot of Bailong Temple, a local in Fucheng, he knew a lot about these folk rumors, and he was equally curious to see the true face of the Dragon King as he spoke.

This amber surprised everyone a lot, but the person sealed in the worm-oval amber surprised everyone even more.

When everyone approached with torches in hand and saw the dead man sealed in the amber, they found that the amber was sealed with a lifelike human dragon corpse, with scales like snake scales growing from the exposed skin.

said that it was a dead person, but in fact, it was more like a sleeping living person, with skin, hair, and a set of dragon scales and jade armor on his body, all of which still maintained his appearance before his death, and there was no change at all, and the person was still alive.

The human dragon corpse is dressed in dragon scale jade armor, and wears a full-coverage dragon helmet, which can give people a dignified killing power through the amber stone.

From ancient times to the present, people have always worshipped jade culture.

They all classify jade as a gentleman.

And I am convinced that jade can raise people.

Therefore, from emperors, princes and generals to merchants and squires in all dynasties, they all like to collect the world's beautiful jade.

Therefore, the most unearthed in this tomb, in addition to the most worthless clay pots, is the most priceless jade.

And the sound of the water waves they heard just now came from an eight-treasure box with the corpse's hands on his chest.

At this time, even the most stupid person can see that the eight-treasure box can be handed down by the owner of this mausoleum after his death, it must be a great treasure.

"Little brother, this set of dragon scale jade armor is not simple, looking at the jade color, it looks like the white jade of the Western Regions that I once saw in the hands of those merchants of the Western Regions when the merchants of the Western Regions came to Kangding Kingdom to do business. This kind of white jade in the Western Regions is the most popular jade treasure among the princes and nobles, others play jade is a piece of two pieces of white jade has been like a treasure, this Teng country lord is good, there is a complete set of dragon scale jade armor to raise the corpse. ”

The old Taoist priest was surprised.

"Fortunately, we are not tomb robbers who go to the tomb, if this complete set of dragon scale jade armor is seen by those tomb robbers who do not go empty, even if they know that they are dead, it is estimated that they will definitely try their best to steal this set of dragon scale jade armor. This dragon scale jade armor is already a treasure alone, and if it is a complete set, it is priceless. Those princely generals are confident that they will not mind being buried in a worn shroud. ”

But.

Jin An did not answer the words of the old Taoist.

Because, at this time, he finally saw a human dragon corpse that was still as alive as before, and he was frowning and looking at the human dragon corpse in front of him carefully.

It seems that on the corpse of the human dragon in front of him, which is still alive, some of his previous conjectures have been verified, and with a major discovery, there is a sudden realization between his eyebrows.

And since he got close to the amber stone, he has been secretly observing the Du Wei of Jin An, and at this time he also found that there was something wrong with the look on Jin An's face, so he asked: "Dao Chang Jin'an, since we found the first human dragon corpse in the bronze round belly of the fake mound, and then we saw the painted human dragons on the murals of the green skin in this underground cave, I see that Dao Chang Jin An will look at these dragons every time, frowning, what has Dao Chang of Jin An discovered?"

"Why don't you say it, and let's all help you be a counselor?"

"We need to be sincere in order to open the gold and stone in addition to the Dragon King in the Yinyi River this time, and only by everyone's frank cooperation can we finally get out of the mausoleum of the lord of the Teng country safely. ”

Du Wei's words fell, and the eyes of everyone present temporarily shifted from the dragon scale jade armor and the eight treasure box to Jin An.

Jin An didn't hide what he had just discovered.

In fact, he didn't mean to hide it at the beginning.

Even if the lieutenant doesn't ask.

He will also tell the truth.

"I did find something special about these dragons. ”

Jin An began to tell what he had discovered: "When the first human dragon corpse was found in the fake mound above, I already had a bold conjecture in my heart about the so-called human dragon, the reincarnation of the real dragon, and the dragon body identity of the lord of the Teng Kingdom. It's just that the human dragon corpse has been dead for too long, and the corpse is badly damaged, so I don't dare to be sure of the conjecture in my heart for a while......"

"Later, those green-skinned murals, the second time I saw the human dragon, further verified the conjecture in my heart......

"But it wasn't until I saw the complete and vivid human dragon corpse in front of me that the conjecture in my heart was truly verified......

"Actually, this Teng country lord is not the reincarnation of a real dragon, and he is not a human dragon, he is just like us, he is a mortal fetus. The so-called dragon scales and the reincarnation of the true dragon are just a skin disease, and the royal family exaggerates this skin disease as the reincarnation of the real dragon through mythological worship and sacrifice in order to consolidate its dominance. ”

"I don't know if you've ever heard of 'ichthyosis'?"

Jin An didn't seem to notice everyone's dumbfounded expressions, and the more he listened, the more shocked he became, he looked at the human dragon corpse of the tomb owner in front of him, and continued to explain the specific cause of ichthyosis.

"Ichthyosis is a skin disease characterized by hardening of the skin and the development of horn-shaped scaly skin like fish scales and snake scales. It will be aggravated in the cold and dry season, making people miserable, and it will be slightly relieved in the rainy season and wet season, which is a genetic disease, which is also difficult to heal for life, and can not be cured for a lifetime, and even children and grandchildren have a high probability of inheriting this skin disease. ”

"This ichthyosis itself is easy to inherit, plus it has been around since ancient times, in order to maintain the so-called royal blood orthodoxy, the royal family has cousins and cousins, and close relatives such as blood brothers and sisters intermarry to maintain the seal of blood inheritance. customs, so this leads to a greater probability of inheriting various diseases. The lord of this Teng country has ichthyosis, and the children he gave birth to have a high probability of suffering from this ichthyosis skin disease. ”

When he said this, Jin An paused.

He originally wanted to say that it was a feudal vice for the royal family to keep their blood pure through intermarriage, but fortunately, at the last moment, he changed his tune in time.

If this kind of criticism of the royal family is spread by people with good intentions and reaches the ears of the imperial court, it is a great rebellion.

The sin of deception.

The nine clans are not enough to cut off their heads.

No matter which dynasty or generation, whether ancient or modern, Chinese and foreign, intermarriage between close relatives of the royal family has always existed, and even many famous families have always retained the feudal vice of intermarriage.

Jin An is sure that the Kangding royal family also has close relatives intermarrying, otherwise it will be difficult to maintain the stability of his hundreds of years of social stability.

After a slight pause in Jin An's voice, he continued: "If ordinary people suffer from ichthyosis, they will suffer for a lifetime, and they will cause physical and mental trauma for a lifetime. ”

But this lord of Tengguo was able to survive in a desperate situation, not only did he not hide his disease, but even disclosed his ichthyosis, and through the art of imperial domination, his skin disease was tampered with through the folk worship of the mythical true dragon, sacrificial celebrations, etc., and called it dragon scales. Render himself the reincarnation of a true dragon as a way to consolidate his position as the lord of the country. ”

As a result, the people under his rule and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were convinced that he was the reincarnation of the true dragon, so that people did not dare to resist his dominance and sat more firmly in the position of the lord of the country. ”

When he said this, Jin An frowned slightly: "It's just that I don't understand a little, this ichthyosis can only be inherited to future generations, and cannot be transmitted to others, what about those ichthyosis on Miss Jia's body?"

"Maybe for the time being, we can only use the body of the Teng country lord after the death, the body of the Teng country lord after the death has undergone some mutations, which are different from ordinary people, such as a large amount of yin qi in the corpse, and the humid air in the mausoleum under the Yinyi River, all of which make ichthyosis like a fish in water, so that ichthyosis mutates and becomes more powerful and contagious. ”

"Or maybe it was when the lord of Teng was alive, in order to make up for a lie with ninety-nine lies, not only did he not treat ichthyosis, but in order to increase credibility and consolidate his dominance in the hearts of the people, he constantly deliberately stimulated ichthyosis, made ichthyosis aggravate, and made his whole body covered with ichthyosis, so that everyone under his rule believed that he was the reincarnation of a real dragon, and he was a human dragon. When ichthyosis is aggravated by this constant stimulation, perhaps this skin disease that is not contagious may eventually become contagious like chickenpox, rubella, measles, tinea capitis, tinea pedis and other skin diseases. ”

"The dragon king married the water god Niangniang, the water god Niangniang was blessed by the dragon qi, and the skin showed signs of dragonization, which were all fake, in fact, it was infected with skin diseases. ”

"Only this explanation can break the false myth of the so-called 'reincarnation of the true dragon' and pull the lord of Teng off the altar. Therefore, the so-called reincarnation of the true dragon is fake, even if there is a real dragon in this world, then this real dragon cannot appear in a small country lord who has died for thousands of years, otherwise it will not be destroyed. ”

Jin An's words were like a boulder thrown into a lake, stirring up turbulent waves in the hearts of everyone present.

Although everyone didn't believe in the reincarnation of a real dragon from the beginning, it was mostly an exaggerated myth of the emperor's domination technique.

But they can't figure out what the truth behind it is for the time being.

It wasn't until Jin An's detailed explanation, which was reasonable and well-founded, and the logic made sense, so that they couldn't find logical loopholes, and after a long period of ups and downs in their minds, they gradually digested the thousand-year-old truth brought by Jin An.

Although this truth is unexpected, the mythical reincarnation of the true dragon and the real dragon scale armor are actually just a skin disease of ichthyosis, but this is reasonable.

In excluding the unreliable explanation of the reincarnation of the real dragon, it is true that only ichthyosis can best explain the origin of the human dragon corpse in front of him.

"Little brother, how do you know so much?"

"I have never heard of ichthyosis, but this world is so big, there are no surprises, people are just well frogs and chickens, I have not seen the stubborn disease, it does not mean that it does not exist, or little brother, you have more knowledge than the old way. ”

The old Taoist priest gave a thumbs up to Chao Jin'an in admiration.

Even Du Wei and the abbot of Bailong Temple, and the monk Hongzhao, after calming down the turbulent waves in their hearts, were also amazed by Jin An.

As the saying goes, there must be my teacher in a threesome.

The people who went to the bottom of the pool this time included Jin An, the old Taoist, the sword sharpening, the Duwei, and the two monks of the White Dragon Temple, a total of six people.

The four monks of the White Dragon Temple, the village goddess, and the weeping and mourning brothers were left on the shore to be vigilant at all times to prevent being attacked from behind after going to the bottom of the pool.

After being surprised, Jin An and the six of them began to study how to pry open the amber stone in front of them.

But just when they were going back and forth in Jin'an, discussing how to get the amber stone and behead the corpse, suddenly, the voice of the old Taoist priest exclaimed in the tomb: "How come the eyes of the lord of Teng are open?"

The old Taoist priest's exclamation shocked a few people present, and he turned his head to take a closer look at the corpse sealed in the amber, and sure enough, under the dragon helmet, the eyes of the tomb owner, from a small slit in the dragon helmet, opened coldly, revealing black and white cold eyes.

In the cold eyes, the flickering light of the torches in Jin An's hands was reflected.

"Little brother, Du Wei, abbot, who of you just noticed that the eyes of the lord of Teng Country were closed, or did they open later?"

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but even the air seems to have become quieter and more depressing.

Weigh down a boulder in the hearts of the people.

Everyone frowned and thought about it, but they all looked at each other in astonishment, just now everyone was attracted by the amber stone and the eight treasure box, but no one noticed the small detail of the eyes of the lord of Tengguo.

No one could tell, whether the eyes of the Teng lord lying in the amber stone were open or closed?

"Little brother, could it be that you just said those words, so that the lord of Tengguo heard it, his old man was annoyed and angry, and his corpse was angry, and he opened his eyes, right?"

The old Taoist priest's mouth, Jin An glared at the old Taoist priest.

"It doesn't matter if he sleeps with his eyes open all the time, or if he opens it later, he directly smashes this amber stone, digs up the grave and digs up the corpse, and burns this thousand-year-old bone with a fire, I see how he still pretends to be a ghost!"

Jin An drank cold.

The red blood in his hand exploded, and he smashed the amber stone in front of him with a punch.

Bang!

There was a muffled explosion, and the seemingly solid amber stone cracked inch by inch, revealing the body of the human dragon who had been hiding under the tomb for thousands of years!
