The coffin was very mottled, and the paint on it had almost fallen off, and it should have been red pine from the exposed material. As you know, Chifeng used to be called Songzhou, and pine trees spread all over the city and beyond. Therefore, the coffins of the local people have always been mainly made of pine wood. However, this coffin is a whole, the lines on it are natural and smooth, it is a coffin made of hollowing out the entire red pine trunk, although it is not expensive, but such a thick red pine wood is rare.

When he looked up with his glasses and saw that the lid of the coffin was empty, he couldn't help but be stunned - it was obvious that the coffin had also been opened. He hurriedly shouted to me and the altar to go over and lift the lid of the coffin together. The jar and I were also very curious about what treasures were still hidden in this coffin, so we hurriedly ran over and pushed open the lid of the coffin with our glasses.

But after the coffin was opened, the glasses were stunned, and the altar and I were also stunned. The glasses were stunned because there was more than one skeleton in this coffin; And I and the altar were stunned because there was nothing but dry bones in the coffin, which completely shattered our illusion of hiding treasures in the coffin. Come to think of it, the group of people who came to rob the tomb before were not stupid, since they had searched the outside so cleanly, how could they let go of the coffin?

The skeletons in the coffin could not be discerned at a glance, but at least there were more than five, because we could see five skulls at a glance. The bones were piled up in the coffin, apparently not in their original form, and were probably the work of previous tomb robbers. Not only did they loot the burial goods in the coffins, but even the remains of these ancient people were not spared. The skulls were now a little crippled, but the black holes in their faces and noses still made people shudder and shudder.

The glasses were so sorry that they counted the bones, and the altar and I sat leaning against the coffin, like frosted eggplants, looking listless. The jar hugged Lao Bai, stroked its fur and whispered to me, "Damn, this time it's really 'shell lang met a strain'." ”

"How?" I asked weakly.

"Come for nothing!" The jar explained hatefully.

"What's the law, if you want to blame us, you can only blame us for coming too late." I also said with a sigh.

"Even if it's early, how early can it be? Looking at the posture in this cave, maybe the last time it was stolen was a long time before we were born. Even if my mother comes with a big belly, I don't think I will be able to catch up with the trip......" Tanzi sighed and asked, "Poor ghost, didn't you say that everyone who is upside down should leave some for the owner of the tomb?" Why didn't I see it in this tomb? ”

"That's a sensible one, perhaps...... All the wild fox Zen came before - how can they manage so much, they are all masters who see money and have an eye for money, and they have a beating sex with you. ”

"You've wronged me." Tanzi said, "Although I like money, I won't kill them like these guys, so I have to leave something for future generations!" ”

"No, no, no!" Glasses suddenly screamed loudly, and Tanzi and I hurriedly stood up and asked him what was wrong.

"Look!" Pointing to the bones in the coffin, he said, "There are eight bones in this coffin, and in terms of height and pelvic size, they should be four men and four women, and judging from the wear and tear of their teeth, they should all be young people." ”

"Cut!" The jar scoffed, "I thought it was a big deal!" Isn't that all? Now that there can be a group wedding, isn't it okay for people to hold a group funeral? ”

"Don't mess around!" I reprimanded, "Even if it's a group funeral, there are no four men and four women buried together at the same time, and it's a coffin, and this is not a family tomb." ”

"The poor ghost is right." The glasses said, "I just looked at the patterns and patterns on those ceramic fragments, it should be Song porcelain, and I think this should be the tomb of the Song and Liao periods, when the family tombs have long since withdrawn from the stage of Chinese history." ”

I had a slight realization: "What do you mean ......"

"Martyrdom!" "Look at their skulls, they've all been badly wounded in their lifetimes, and I guess they're supposed to be stoned to death and dragged here to be buried." ”

"You can see that, too?" The jar was surprised.

Glasses nodded, picked up a skull, and handed it to the jar. The altar hurriedly took a few steps back, and said in a loud voice: "You, you just say it, you don't need to show it to me......"

Glasses pointed to the hole in the skull's skull and said, "Look at this hole, the shape is not irregular. Although there has been evidence of craniotomy in prehistory, it is clear that the hole was not drilled for medical purposes, but was slammed with a heavy object. ”

The altar was surprised: "You archaeologists still understand forensics? ”

The glasses pushed the glasses on the bridge of their nose and said, "A little dabbling." ”

I frowned: "Didn't you say that this tomb is from the Song and Liao periods?" How can there be such a thing as a burial of a man? ”

Glasses sighed and said: "Although it is expressly forbidden to be buried in feudal society, those powerful people still secretly adhere to this ancient bad custom. ”

I said, "That means it's not the main burial chamber." ”

"That's right!" The glasses nodded.

The altar finally came to his senses, and he yelled: "Then don't hurry up and find it!" ”

We searched the chamber for an entrance to the main chamber to no avail, and finally our attentive glasses found something unusual on the coffin.

"Look!" "There are slight arc-shaped scratches on the coffin bed in the northeast and southwest corners of this coffin, but not in the southeast and northwest corners. ”

The altar asked incomprehensibly, "What does that mean?" ”

The glasses pushed the coffin hard with both hands and said, "It shows that this coffin can move!" ”

Tanzi and I immediately understood the words of the glasses and hurriedly reached out to help. Sure enough, the pine coffin slowly moved in a clockwise direction with the three of us working together. The shaft under the coffin made a "creaking" sound, as if it would break at any moment.

With a loud "click", the coffin seemed to be pushed to the limit, and no matter how hard we tried, we couldn't move it for half a minute. If the original angle of this coffin was six o'clock, now it has become seven and five o'clock.

"Look!" The altar pointed to the small piece of wall that the coffin had originally blocked, and cried out in surprise. I looked with my glasses and saw a door in the wall, a small door that could only be climbed through by one person. The small door is actually an iron plate, the size of the back of the coffin, but because the right side is fixed to the mountain wall by two door folds, it is called a "door".

I bent down to open the small door, but it was unusually heavy to start. After wasting all his strength, he finally opened the iron door with the help of the altar.

The moment the door was opened, I felt a cool breeze blowing on my face, which was extremely rare in a tomb where air circulation was not easy to circulate. But I shuddered from it, as if there was something in the wind that I couldn't tell what it was, and it was extremely uncomfortable. I took a flashlight and shone it inside, and saw that it was a passage as large as the iron gate, about 10 meters long, and people had to crawl forward if they wanted to get there.

When I saw the strange layout of the tomb, I couldn't help but retreat, so I persuaded the glasses and the jar to get out of here as soon as possible.

But the glasses guessed that this path led to the main burial chamber, so he and the altar were determined to go in and have a look. I can't resist the two of them, plus the three of us have always advanced and retreated together, so it's not good to turn back alone, so I can only go with them. However, just in case, we decided to let Lao Bai go in to explore the way first.

Who knew that Lao Bai, who was originally obedient to the words of the altar, was extremely reluctant this time, and he was unwilling to move half a step regardless of how to drive or coerce and lure. In the end, the jar forced Lao Bai into the doorway, and in order to prevent Lao Bai from turning around, he also got into it on his stomach. The glasses and I saw the jar go in with us, so we followed closely behind, with the glasses in front and me behind.
