Chapter 183: The Golden Jade Coffin
It's not just Zhao Yang.
Even some of the soldiers standing next to Yang Zhending couldn't help frowning when they saw this technique, their scalps were numb, and they even felt a little nauseous and nauseous, and goosebumps all over their bodies.
And it's no wonder.
Although the dried corpse in front of him had been charred black as charcoal on the surface, it was soft on the inside, as if it was charred on the outside and tender on the inside.
When the black gold ancient knife was cut down, a viscous black liquid flowed out of the body, and it carried a sneering, brain-burning smell.
Wow...... Some of them couldn't stand it, so they turned around and vomited with a wow, all of which was sour water!
"What a bunch of rubbish!"
Xiong Maolin glanced at a few soldiers who turned around and vomited, and scolded disdainfully, in fact, his scalp was numb when he looked at it. But! The thought that there may be treasures as rare as the golden hanging beads, what is this means?
However, Yang Zhending's subordinates had very calm expressions, and they seemed to be accustomed to Yang Zhending's consistent style.
"Found it!"
Suddenly, the black gold ancient knife in Yang Zhending's hand seemed to have touched something inside the dried corpse, and then directly and more cruelly split the butt of the dried corpse in half from the middle, and suddenly the black-brown viscous corpse water flowed to the ground.
And in this black-brown sticky and fishy corpse water, something appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
It is a red jade plug about 10 centimeters long.
"Thousand-Year Blood Jade!"
Yang Zhending looked at the jade plug that flowed out of the corpse water, and his eyes immediately widened, and the light came out.
Blood jade, as the name suggests, is the jade that is soaked in blood, and to put it more simply, it is the jade that penetrates the blood.
Whether it is jadeite or any natural stone, as long as it penetrates the blood, it is blood jade.
Although it is said on the surface, it is not just a piece of natural stone can penetrate the blood, which first requires the texture of the natural stone to be very, very high, very moist, and then after years of blood soaking, in order to penetrate the blood, the better the texture, the more moist the jade, the more blood will penetrate.
This may be very simple to say, but it is very difficult to make, first of all, it is to use blood to 'raise' jade, and it cannot be broken for many years!
Secondly, this kind of blood penetration is naturally formed, and the ancients had very high requirements for aesthetics, not only to simply penetrate the blood, but also to look good, which is even more difficult!
And the jade plug of this thousand-year-old blood jade in front of him, the jade quality is the top Hetian mutton fat jade, even if it is still wrapped in corpse water at this time, but it still can't hide its perfection, the white place is as moist as mutton fat, and the place that penetrates the blood is in the form of a gluttonous beast, and the god is full of shape, even the mighty momentum is there, it is simply a masterpiece of God!
"Hurry up, pick her up, wipe her clean with a cloth, hurry!"
Xiong Maolin also seemed to be very interested in this piece of thousand-year-old blood jade, and immediately ordered a deputy beside him to pick it up.
The deputy frowned slightly, and secretly gave another subordinate next to him a look.
The subordinate soldier who was made to look at him could only stiffen his head, forcibly hold back his nausea, pad it with a cotton cloth, and picked up this thousand-year-old blood jade from the black-brown sticky and smelly corpse water, and then wiped it clean repeatedly, and reached out and handed it to Xiong Maolin.
Xiong Maolin took his hand, stared at this piece of jade carefully with wide eyes, and overflowed with a kind of joy to the extreme.
Although this is just a piece of jade, not gold, this thousand-year-old blood jade has completely exceeded the value measured by money!
Although there is a saying called prosperous antiques, gold in troubled times, but if you encounter a truly rare antique, it can be worth a fortune, no! It's priceless!
For example, the jade plug of the thousand-year-old blood jade in his hand now, and the jade containing the golden hanging bead just now.
"Dashuai, I see that the color of this thousand-year-old blood jade should be the essence blood of a boy or a virgin, and only this kind of essence blood can be used to cultivate blood jade, and it can be used as a jade plug to block the soul of the deceased."
Yang Zhending said flatteringly next to him.
"Hmmm! Well! Well! ”
Xiong Maolin nodded again and again, it doesn't matter how much he likes this jade plug, it was used to stuff the butt of the dead before, but it really shows the sentence 'love it contains everything about it'.
In addition, Xiong Maolin also admired Yang Zhending's talent and smiled with satisfaction: "Zhending! Thanks to you! Don't worry, your benefits are absolutely indispensable, after we go out, I will give you an additional official, be my deputy marshal, one person under ten thousand people, let's fight the world together! ”
It feels like all leaders will win people's hearts, or that leaders who won't win people's hearts are not good leaders.
And Zhao Yang watched this scene in the dark, feeling as if it was a microcosm of his relationship with Jin Wuming at the beginning.
As for the golden hanging bead and thousand-year-old blood jade that Xiong Maolin got in his hand, to be honest, Zhao Yang also loves it!
After all, Zhao Yang studied archaeology before, and for this rare treasure, there is a natural temptation like a long-legged beauty.
Besides, this is still where Zhao Yang once came.
But because Zhao Yang studied archaeology before, it was impossible for him to do such a violent corpse, so even if he opened the door of this side hall by himself, it was impossible to think about stabbing someone's buttocks......
"Go ahead and clean up, carpet and carefully, don't let go of any place, any detail! Be fast, too! ”
After receiving Xiong Maolin's praise, Yang Zhending was full of combat power in an instant, feeling like a hunting dog who was rewarded with a meat bone by his master, wagging his tail excitedly, full of energy.
As for these men, they also continue to conduct a large-scale carpet search in the ruins.
According to the normal funeral system in ancient times, since there are salted fish and worn funeral goods, and the forced price is still so high, there must be other funeral goods around! And it is impossible for the burial goods to be stolen by the first comer, because the gold bracelets on the salted fish are all intact!
"Master Yang, handsome, I found it!"
Within a few minutes in the middle, someone immediately turned around and shouted at Yang Zhending and Xiong Maolin.
At the same time, Zhao Yang also tiptoed and looked in the direction where the sound came from, but because the ruins were on high ground, and what they were looking for was under the ruins, they couldn't see it very clearly.
In fact, there were more than 5,000 people in the entire army, and only a small part of less than one-fifth of them participated in the search work, and the rest of the people gathered around the ruins, standing by and 'watching the excitement'.
As soon as Yang Zhending heard that the burial goods had been found, he immediately strode over.
I saw that there were indeed a lot of burial goods under the ruins, and most of them were packed in wooden boxes, but the wooden boxes had been completely burned to ashes, which also made a large number of burial goods spread all over the ground in the ruins, and all kinds of utensils were dazzling, and most of them were made of gold and silver, and there were some gems and jade, but unfortunately, especially jade, it would be burned under a long period of high temperature, even if it was not burned, it was damaged to varying degrees because of the fire, which affected its own value and became worthless. After all, jade is a thing that mainly focuses on a beautiful aesthetic.
"Call some more people to come and move!"
Yang Zhending had a smile on his face, and it was not difficult to see from his expression that the more treasures he found, the happier the handsome Xiong Maolin became.
Xiong Maolin was happy, and he was able to follow his ass to become an official and get a reward......
Under Yang Zhending's order, more than 100 people were sent to join from the surrounding teams on standby, and they were padded with cotton cloth in turn, and carefully took out these burial goods from the ruins and fires one by one.
There are many fine products in these burial goods, such as gold flower flat bracelets, green jade Fushou Sanduopei, red Baguio longevity pendant, gold inlaid longevity pot......
For future generations, each of these pieces is definitely a priceless treasure.
It's just that Yang Zhending's fire has lost a lot of money, especially some exquisite jade pendants, because the jade is too thin, basically all of them have been damaged!
That's a big loss! From a certain point of view, Yang Zhending is a sinner of cultural inheritance!
Of course, in the past dynasties, there have been many tomb robbers like Yang Zhending who have great destructive power.
There are also many warlords like Xiong Maolin, and even some warlords directly use these unearthed cultural relics to find foreign devils to exchange guns and cannons.
As a result, many treasures have been lost overseas......
"Yang Ye ......"
At this time, there seemed to be some new discovery, and someone shouted 'Yang Ye' loudly.
The sound came from the ruins of the side hall on the left.
Because the side halls on both sides of the Genyuan Hall were burned down at the same time, and two groups of people searched at the same time, maybe the side hall on the right also found something!
But when Yang Zhending turned his head to look at the ruins of the side hall on the left, he was instantly stunned in place and his eyes widened.
It's not just Yang Zhending, many people are stunned.
Even Zhao Yang and Xing Yunfu are the same.
I saw that on the ruins of this side hall on the left, after several people knocked down a piece of blue brick, a huge cyan coffin was revealed!
This is actually a golden jade coffin!
What is a golden jade coffin? That is, a jade coffin decorated with gold wire!
Because the jade is resistant to fire, this coffin was naturally preserved in the fire.
Hiss......
Seeing the golden jade coffin on the ruins, even Zhao Yang's eyes widened in surprise, and he was even a little incredulous!
In ancient funerals, especially in the Tang Dynasty, the most common use is the wooden coffin, even the emperors of several dynasties, only used the Nanmu Pavilion painted with gold paint, only a few special cases are used copper coffins, iron coffins are even less!
Because in ancient times, iron was worth more than copper, especially when it came to war!
The golden coffin is also in history. But only the jade coffin is extremely rare!
In the history of archaeology, only three jade coffins have been found before and after, which can also see the rarity of jade coffins.
In ancient times, many literati liked to compare jade to women, as the so-called 'beauty is like jade'.
There is also this concept in the funeral, therefore, the owner of this golden jade coffin must be a woman, and nine times out of ten she is also the wife of the Ministry of Labor, otherwise she will not use the high and thick burial of the golden jade coffin!
