Chapter 258: True Purpose
At this time, Wang Chuyi was extremely excited and said, "Green Mist Shroud!" I didn't expect this kind of legendary thing to really exist! White Feather, blow the fog away. "I took out a wad of paper, took it as a fan, and fanned it vigorously on the coffin, and after fanning it back and forth about five or six times, I saw a naked male corpse lying naked on the jade bed.
I couldn't help frowning, this naked corpse didn't know how many years it had been in the ancient tomb, and now it seemed that the skin was not corroded at all, I pressed it with my hand, and found that the skin of the corpse was still very elastic, and the expression on the face was also very peaceful, except that there was no body temperature, as if it was asleep.
Huzi looked at it and said, "Damn, is this guy dead, or is he asleep?" Before Huzi finished speaking, I felt the cyan mist around the jade bed and the corpse diffuse again, and soon it became very thick, blocking my vision, and the corpse became hazy again.
I just wanted to fan the paper twice more, trying to blow the mist away, but in the haze I seemed to see the corpse suddenly turn around, as if I wanted to change the position after sleeping in a position for a long time and feeling uncomfortable.
This sudden change frightened me, and I hurriedly took two or three steps back, and Huzi and Wang Chuyi also saw the scene just now, and they were also shocked.
After a while, I saw that the corpse on the jade bed was sideways, and there was no other change, so I walked over again, and fanned the cyan mist with paper, after the mist was blown away, I fixed my eyes and looked at it, the whole person was dumbfounded, and sure enough, just like what I saw just now, the corpse that was lying flat was now turned sideways, with its back to us.
At this time, I saw that on the jade bed, because the corpse had changed its posture and was lying sideways, two very small bronze masks appeared on the back of the original corpse, probably slightly larger than the nail cover, and the patterns on the two bronze masks were slightly different, one mask had two horns on its head, and the other had a relatively smooth surface, like a green jujube.
Just when I was startled, I saw a dark shadow suddenly burst out from under my armpit, and grabbed the two bronze masks with great speed.
Only then did I realize that it was the tiger behind me, although this kid was seriously injured, but the speed of the attack on the spirit weapon did not decrease at all, and before I could see the lines on the two bronze masks, he had already grabbed it in his hand, and when I turned around, the tiger was already with a bad smile on his face, and I didn't know where to hide them.
I understand Huzi's temperament, and now in this stall, all the artifacts are in his hands, and he wants to come back, so he can only sigh and no longer care about him.
At this time, the green mist on the bed filled again, and I looked through the fog again, only to see that the corpse had changed again, and the body had turned back again, and continued to maintain a flat lying position.
This kind of change is too unbelievable, I was afraid that something bad would happen, so I didn't want to blow away the green fog again, and as soon as I made a look at Wang Chu, I wanted to withdraw quickly.
But who knew that Huzi snatched the paper in my hand at this time, and fanned it vigorously against the jade bed, and soon the mist was blown away again, and then I saw the corpse lying flat with wide eyes, staring at Huzi.
This frightened the tiger, and as soon as his legs were weak, he fell to the ground, the wound on his stomach was pulled, and blood gushed out again.
Wang Chuyi and I hurriedly went to help Huzi, and then pulled him back more than a dozen steps, then I looked at the coffin, and couldn't help but wonder, the corpse just now turned sideways, as if deliberately let us get the two bronze masks, and now it is lying flat, obviously I don't want us to bother him anymore, although I don't believe in any feudal superstition, but the scene that happened just now, my scientific knowledge can no longer explain, and finally knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times to the coffin, and then stepped forward, After the coffin lid is closed again, it is ready to leave.
But I found that at this time, Wang Chuyi was holding the tiger in one hand, while looking at the coffin blankly, I walked to her side and called her two or three times in a row, she reacted and said, "What's wrong?" ”
Huzi and I asked at the same time, "Damn, what's wrong with you?" What are you doing? ”
The expression on Wang Chu's face was very complicated, he didn't know whether he was excited or afraid, and said, "I know why Captain Jin wants to pull this coffin out." ”
Huzi snorted and said, "With such a big lump of gold, who can not be tempted?" That is, a few of us can't get it out, if I can, I will also pull this thing out, not to mention how much this coffin can be sold for as a dead vessel, even if it is only sold for gold, it is a lot of income. ”
Wang Chuyi waved his hand and said, "No, no, this Captain Jin was indeed robbing tombs to get money and subsidizing military salaries at that time, but there is absolutely no reason to travel so far to come to Kunlun Mountain to rob tombs, you must know that the Wei State in that era was too far away from this Kunlun Mountain, and it is not at all like us now, there are advanced means of transportation. ”
Huzi shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said, "Then you say, why the hell are these people here?" ”
At this time, I seemed to have understood, and hurriedly said, "You mean the jade bed?" ”
Wang Chuyi nodded hurriedly and said, "Legend has it that during the Xia Dynasty, there was a kind of jade that could keep people's souls in the body, so that the corpse would not rot for thousands of years, and there would be a phenomenon of green mist shrouding the corpse. ”
Huzi said in surprise, "What do you mean, that jade bed is made of legendary jade?" ”
Wang Chu nodded, "It's very likely, but after all, it's a myth and legend, and no one has ever seen what that jade looks like, but judging from what happened just now, this jade bed is the kind of jade in the legend, and you have also seen it, and the corpse on the jade bed has moved itself." ”
Huzi and I nodded hurriedly.
Wang Chuyi continued, "It is a natural phenomenon, jade will moisturize all parts of the corpse, when a certain part is not moistened, the jade and the corpse will function, turn the corpse upside down, and then moisturize a certain part of the corpse, so that the corpse will not rot for thousands of years." ”
Huzi and I were almost stunned, and said that this thing in the myth and legend really exists? From the various signs just now, it can be seen that this jade bed is exactly the same as the ancient jade described in Wang Chu's mouth, and I can't help but ask, "You mean, Cao Cao learned about the existence of this jade bed?" That's why people are sent here to rob tombs? The reason why these gold-touching captains want to transport the entire coffin out is not because of the coffin made of pure gold, but for the jade bed in the coffin? ”
Wang Chu nodded, looked at me and said, "If it's just for gold, you can smash the coffin in the ancient tomb, or melt the coffin directly in the tomb, wouldn't it be more convenient to take it out?" Why go to such great lengths to dig such a wide tunnel? ”
