Chapter 295: Grave Horror (1)
The wind gently blew at the door of this ancient tomb, the clusters of blooming chrysanthemums, these chrysanthemums are very beautiful, they are all gathered together and open, all showing their infinite vitality and vitality, making people feel refreshed when they see it.
On the edge of a small river not far away, the peony flowers that are also blooming with big insects and insects, these peony flowers are wild, but they are very beautiful, and people feel very comfortable to see, these peony flowers are so different from the peony flowers raised at home, giving people a stronger feeling, they are like getting a drop of rain and dew will moisturize the general, and grow vigorously to the sun, just like sunflowers, it is so full of vitality and vitality, it is so vibrant.
Runzhi made people move out of the ancient tomb a lot of gold box by box, and the gold was very dazzling with a golden glow, but the gold was generally out of the cave and was immediately pulled into a box. So there is no way to know what is in the box.
While everyone was busy, suddenly several soldiers ran out of the cave in a panic, and they shouted:
"There are ghosts, there are ghosts, there are ghosts in this tomb!"
Before these people could rush out of the tomb, they suddenly fell straight down, and even their eyes were full of terrifying looks.
Runzhi looked at the soldiers who were scared to death, and after making a register of these soldiers, they were buried, and then fell into deep thought.
At this moment, the screams of dozens of soldiers suddenly came from the cave.
It turned out that many soldiers had already discovered that there were ghosts in this tomb, so they panicked and fled out.
"Whoever comes, immediately hold down the people who are fleeing out, and wrap a moist cloth around their mouth and nose, quick!"
So many other soldiers followed Runzhi's request, tightly wrapped wet towels around the mouths and noses of these fleeing soldiers, tied these soldiers with their backhands, and then pushed out of the caves of these panicked soldiers step by step.
"Listen to my orders, everyone must cut off a strip of cloth from their robes, and the cut part is wet with the water they brought, emphasizing that it must be the water they have brought, and it is forbidden to use the spring water at the entrance of the tomb, and the violators will be dealt with by military law, and then cover their mouths and noses with a moist towel."
So everyone immediately tore off a strip of cloth from their robes according to Runzhi's request, and then moistened it with the water they brought, and wrapped it around their mouths and noses, and sure enough, after that, those who screamed became fewer, and those who claimed to have seen ghosts slowly began to gradually decrease, and slowly no one said that they had seen ghosts again. 186 Chinese Network
After Runzhi issued such an order, the effect was really very good, and everyone surrounded their mouths and noses with cloths, and only then went to move the gold, and no one shouted that there were ghosts anymore.
Chen Hanyun felt very strange, why did he stick the water he brought with a towel and surround his mouth and nose, so that he would not see ghosts again, why should such water be the water he brought instead of the spring water at the door, after all, he brought so little water, and after using it, he drank even less water, wouldn't it be unnecessary, so he asked Run:
"Why did the Lord have so many soldiers tear off the cloth from their robes, and then why did he use the water he had brought with him instead of the spring outside the gate? Why do you want to wrap your mouth and nose with this wet strip of cloth? There must be a lot of articles in this, but I am shallow in my knowledge and have never understood, and I hope that the adults will make it clear."
Runzhi listened, and then laughed, and he pointed to a large pile of blackened dirt next to him and said:
"Actually, it's very simple, because you look at the blackened dirt at the door, in fact, how can this good dirt be blackened? This area belongs to the Central China region, since it is the Central China region, most of the soil is naturally this yellow earth, how can there be so much black soil, then there is only one explanation, that is, this soil must contain a lot of highly toxic ingredients, so what is the highly toxic component, can make so much soil black? Then this kind of thing must be very poisonous and common, and in the past tombs, people used the most thing, that kind of thing is called mercury, which is a highly toxic substance. ”
Runzhi paused and continued:
"Mercury is a heavy metal, and this heavy metal is released in large quantities in caves, mainly to avoid material decay, especially for embalming corpses, but also for embalming other substances. It can also play a role in preventing tomb robbers from entering, because this mercury, it will float in the air, and after people breathe, it will naturally have an effect on people's nerves, causing people to hallucinate. That's why people see ghosts. Not only does this mercury float into the air and cause hallucinations, but if you smoke too much, you will inevitably be poisoned to death. Mercury also slowly penetrates into the underground springs, so the water in this area must be highly poisonous, and people drinking mercury water, even a little, can kill people, which is why I let many warriors wet strips of cloth with their own water and then cover their mouths and noses. ”
Cheng Hanyun listened, and was naturally refreshed, so he said: "The adult is really knowledgeable and well-informed, and he sighs to himself."
Runzhi smiled and waved his hand, and said modestly: "Where, where, don't dare, don't dare, just a little bit of it"
In this tomb, there are black holes everywhere, Runzhi made people light countless torches, and at the same time let many soldiers enter the cave in batches, and then the next batch of people entered, and at the same time let the soldiers hold a stick of incense in their hands, and the time required to enter the world cannot exceed one stick of incense, after a stick of incense, you must exit the tomb and change people in.
In this way, everyone could not stay in the cave for more than one stick of incense, so that many soldiers suffered fewer casualties, but even so, there were still many deaths.
These soldiers who died were often killed by touching potential mechanisms in various tombs, some fell into the abyss because they fell into traps, some were killed by poisonous arrows, some were killed by boulders on the top of the tombs, and some were poisoned by touching some highly toxic substances, etc.
In short, for this more than 10,000 catties of gold, hundreds of people died in this tomb, even so, everyone still obeyed this Runzhi order, after all, it is the duty of the soldiers to obey the order. But in any case, many of the soldiers who entered the tomb were basically scared.
