Chapter 243: Smell
Almost all the emperors of all dynasties have a common pursuit, that is, the desire for longevity - or even eternal life.
It is easy to understand that when a person is supreme and has reached the apex of what he thinks he is spiritually and materially, the only thing that needs to be done is to continue this life as long as possible.
From ancient times to the present, no matter how long they have been in power, the emperors have spent a lot of manpower and material resources to build mausoleums, and secondly, they have tried all kinds of things to prolong their lives when they are alive.
Could it be that Boss Bai's so-called family mission is to find the elixir in this tomb that can prolong life?
The more Old Man Wei thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, if his judgment was correct, what was in this silver bottle was the pill refined by this Dan furnace.
Boss Bai respectfully stretched out his hands and slowly picked up the silver bottle
Just when Boss Bai thought that everything was in his expectation and control, something strange happened, the moment the bottle was picked up, the bronze turtle below actually moved a few times, and then, there was a sudden sound of "creaking, creaking" from the black coffin next to him.
At this moment, even Boss Bai's face changed, turned his head to look at the coffin, and then knelt down very respectfully.
Old man Wei still vaguely remembers what Boss Bai said at that time, and actually knelt in front of the coffin to pray for the rest of his ancestors.
"Ancestor?"
At that moment, Boss Wei suddenly realized, could it be that the ancestor of Boss Bai was lying in this coffin? So, this tomb is the burial place of his ancestors?
Before he could sort it all out, the lid of the coffin moved a few times, and then flew out five or six meters and slammed into the ground.
Several people, even Boss Bai hurriedly retreated, but the most terrifying scene still happened.
The main person in the coffin sat up slowly, no need to ask, it was a dry corpse with skin and bones.
The bloody scene that happened after that still makes Old Man Wei feel vivid. Seeing that the corpse was resurrected, everyone ran towards the stone steps, but after just two steps, they found that there were still stone steps at this time! Where there were originally stone steps, it was just a stone wall.
It's over! At that time, the young old man Wei sighed.
Boss Bai also panicked, and quickly took out the yellowed map again......
At this time, Boss Bai also understood in his heart that the so-called "praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches are behind", he is the one! All this is a game set up by the Yellow Sparrow in advance.
It was too late to understand all this, except for Old Man Wei, everyone died in this tomb, and he didn't elaborate on the process, but I could see from Old Man Wei's expression that the scene must have been very miserable.
As for how Old Man Wei survived by luck, this is even more amazing.
At that very dangerous moment, Old Man Wei curled up in a corner, and accidentally touched the wall with his hand, and found that the soil on the wall was very soft, which was very suitable for opening a thief hole.
Playing thieves is his forte!
I have to say that everyone has a huge potential, and Old Man Wei actually made a hole to hide in just a few minutes, and hit the next door in one breath - there was also a tomb next door.
The person came out alive, but unfortunately he was also beaten a few times by the resurrected dry corpse, and was poisoned by the corpse, so his body was obviously not as good as before, and he also fell into a rainy and cloudy day and suffered from uncomfortable physical problems.
In fact, the old man Wei who fled to another tomb could not escape, because after being poisoned by the corpse, half of his entire body was red and swollen, and he was weak to raise his hands.
Just as he felt hopeless again, he suddenly heard some strange noises in the darkness beside him.
Could it be that there is a living corpse here, too? OMG! This is simply out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth.
The strange thing is that after waiting for several minutes, he is drenched in sweat, but in the darkness there is still only the sound of Suosuo, and if you listen closely, it seems that something is crawling.
That's when he remembered that he had a diesel lighter on him.
The moment the lighter was lit, he realized that this was not a burial chamber, but more like a natural cave, and then he looked at the place where the sound had come from before, and saw a huge turtle.
At this time, Old Man Wei saw such a big turtle for the first time.
Knowing that it was the sound of the turtle, he was more steady, and anyone who grew up by the river knew the habits of the turtle, and in general it was a very docile animal.
The turtle stared at him as well, and after a few minutes of stalemate, the turtle turned around and slowly crawled towards a corner.
The sixth sense told the young old man Wei that if he followed the turtle, it should be a way to live......
Sure enough, he followed the turtle to the river, and then surfaced and climbed ashore.
After going ashore, Dongfang just saw the white belly of the fish, and the frightened old man Wei was so frightened that his heart beat like a drum, and he ran back to his hut as if he was dead.
More than a dozen people died in that operation, including Boss Bai, who was quite a figure in Jinan City at that time, and the society knew that he was missing, or died in the ancient tomb due to tomb robbery, and the whole Jinan City was not messed up!
He seemed to smell that an unprecedented storm was coming.
In those days, Old Man Wei didn't dare to go out, and he kept hiding at home to listen to the Jinan news on the radio, and he no longer thought about being opened by himself. The budding Oiran is up.
He listened to the news for three days in a row, and the more he listened, the more confused he became, because there were reports about Boss Bai every day in the news, either talking to an important person, or participating in some public welfare activities.
Isn't Boss Bai dead? Thinking about it, he knew that it was impossible, and that night he saw with his own eyes that the living corpse had torn Boss Bai in half.
Unless there is a possibility, that is, there are two white bosses in Jinan City, one true and one false, and the one who died should be the real white boss, and what is reported in the news is actually a stand-in.
Sure enough! Five days later, a news item suddenly appeared on the radio, saying that the old man Bai had died of a sudden heart attack.
Old Man Wei also knew in his heart that there was another master behind Old Man Bai, and he was actually used, but who could take advantage of such a bullish character? So far, Old Man Wei hasn't figured it out.
Since then, Old Man Wei is like a different person, he has never been to the tomb again, and he lives cautiously everywhere, until five or six years later, he feels that it is still calm, and the disappearance of these dozen people is as if it has never happened, and he gradually dares to show his head.
Fortunately, Old Man Wei had a companion, and it was the Oiran he bought for 5,000 yuan.
It's irrelevant, so I won't go into it.
After listening to these bizarre things told by Old Man Wei, several of us were full of emotion.
I'm curious, what kind of beauty makes a cold-hearted tomb robber move his "mortal heart", and sighs that many of our excellent traditional culture no longer exist!
After all, Old Man Wei was just a prostitute, and because he got his first time in a semi-forced way, he chose to start from the beginning.
Later, I also communicated with an expert in ancient sociology, and he smiled and said, not to mention getting the New Year's Eve, in the Song Dynasty, when feudal etiquette was the most prosperous, a girl's arm or leg was seen by a man, and there were only two ways in front of her, either to marry him, or to commit suicide in order to save her honor.
……
Yu Lina was curious and asked Old Man Wei where the Oiran was now.
Old man Wei smiled bitterly twice, saying that the Oiran had only followed him for less than three years, and he eloped with a peddler who walked the streets. As for the reason, what Old Man Wei said was extremely vague, but except for Yu Lina, we all understood that corpse poison is extremely harmful and will infringe on people's internal organs, including kidneys.
He said that he understood the Oiran very well, everything was his own life, and none of the tomb robbers would end well, he sighed.
With the development of the times, people's natural desires have gradually overcome the crumbling feudal thoughts. I understand that.
It wasn't until after listening to Old Man Wei say all this that Chen Laosan asked him how he noticed a few of us, and chose to tell us these secrets.
Old man Wei smiled and said two words - smell.
