Volume 2 The Evil Grave Chapter 11 The Incorruptible Male Corpse
In mid-air, just a little above our heads, a man in a white brocade robe was lying in the air. The white ribbon of the brocade robe hung casually and fell right in front of our eyes.
It was only when we looked at this streamer that we saw the person floating in the void.
We can't see the face of this man, but from his hands, they are white and tender, and there is no sign of corruption. It's a wet corpse that hasn't decomposed, not even decayed like it was alive!
"It's like falling asleep......" Yu Qian suddenly sighed after a long period of shock.
I suddenly remembered the coffin of repression above my head...... "After seeing this corpse, I couldn't help but think of the statue of the repressive cow."
Yu Qian suddenly trembled, her eyes instantly hairy, looked at me, and said, "That... So what...... It's getting late...... Are we ......"
To be honest, looking at this incorruptible corpse at this time, I am also a little hairy. Not to mention whether the mural is real or not, just the system of this ancient tomb and the black water that fills it here, it can be seen that this corpse has gone through thousands or even thousands of years of history before flowing to the present day.
For such a long time, the corpse does not decompose, as if it were alive, and there is an extremely rare suppression coffin to suppress it. No matter how you think about it, you'll be scared, right?
But I'm a little unwilling, I'm here, I've seen the corpses, how can I just leave?
So, swallowing my saliva, I strengthened my courage, stepped forward, walked under the corpse's hand, and stretched out my hand to break the corpse's hand.
The corpse's left and right hands were clenched, and under the clenched right hand, a turquoise handle was exposed. I guess this thing is definitely valuable, so I will break this hand when I come up.
Since the corpse was fixed in mid-air with black water, I had to burn the black water under his hand with fire.
After the black water melted, the hand suddenly hung down, so frightened that Yu Qian and I almost ran away without turning around.
Fortunately, there was no reaction after the hand was lowered, so I had the courage to break his fingers.
I don't know if this guy clutched this thing tightly before he died, and I didn't break his hand with all my strength.
Yu Qian was still cowering and hiding behind me at this time, and seeing that I couldn't break it for a long time, she suddenly handed me a dagger and motioned for me to chop the corpse's hand.
I was taken aback by her idea, and I was taken aback by her. Normal people, no one came up with such a bad idea, right?
After being glared at by me twice, Yu Qian stuck out her tongue and obediently withdrew the dagger. And I, after unremitting efforts, finally broke one finger of the corpse.
Break one open, and the rest will be easy, and soon I'll have this long, turquoise object in his hand.
This is a jade Ruyi, delicate and exquisite, dazzling colors, and the carving is very perfect. However, no matter how I look at it, it feels like an ornament for a woman to play with, and a big man should not play with such a delicate gadget.
But it doesn't matter, it's worth the money, I took it and put it in my backpack and kept it well.
Ruyi was taken, and the corpse did not change as much as expected. It is estimated that this black water also preserves the bones of the corpse, which is not as terrifying as imagined.
So I was bold enough to pry his left hand open.
The corpse's left hand was completely closed, and it was impossible to see what it was holding. However, in the spirit of immortality in the heart of the Yellow River, after I boiled the black water in his hand, I still broke his fingers.
This time, I got a bead, like a crystal bead, but it was a bit cloudy and not completely transparent.
Yu Qian said that this thing was a corpse bead, and it should have been contained in the corpse's mouth. Of course, it's also a very valuable thing.
I don't care where it's supposed to be, as long as it's valuable. So I took it down and put it with Ruyi.
"Okay, right? Can we go? Looking at this corpse all the time, I really oozed panic. After succeeding, Yu Qian urged. This is very inconsistent with the performance when I first came in.
"You just said that the bead should have been in your mouth, right?" I'm reluctant to go, there's still good stuff!
Yu Qian's eyes widened instantly, and she looked at me incredulously: "Are you still going to pry his mouth open?" What evil you are! ”
"What do you mean by evil? Haven't you ever pried it? You got the ancient corpse, and you also stripped off other people's clothes, which is even more evil! "I immediately retorted, how could I be evil? It doesn't make sense.
Yu Qian was speechless for a moment, how could their research be done just by stripping off their clothes? Some even had to toss the ancient corpse in order to obtain some information.
By the time she was there, I had melted the black water under the corpse, and there was no support under the corpse. Then, holding a torch aloft, I swept over the corpse and cut it out of the black water.
"Smack!" Suddenly, the corpse fell to the ground, and this time it was revealed.
The corpse was very majestic, and it was a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties. Looking at the corpse, it was like falling asleep, as if it would wake up at any moment.
However, I won't be afraid, it's okay to do that just now, it's proven that he's dead, what else can happen?
So, I straddled him, bent down, and pinched his cheeks, ready to pry his mouth.
The mouth is easy to pry, and compared to the hand, it is much simpler. Under his tongue, I found a white piece of jade, which was in the shape of fish scales, two or three millimeters thick. Both sides are smooth, crystal clear, and the workmanship is very beautiful. In ancient times, jade could be ground into such uniform flakes, which shows the superb craftsmanship.
There were two characters engraved on the front and back of the jade piece, I didn't know it, and handed it to Yu Qian.
Yu Qian has studied archaeology, and has also studied those old antiques for a period of time, so she should have studied ancient characters.
However, Yu Qian looked at it for a long time, and finally said to me: "I don't know what this text is written now, but I know this font, this kind of text is called Yuewen." Yue is the script of the southern tribes in the pre-Qin period, and it is a very ancient script. ”
"Pre-Qin period? Southern tribes? That's Baiyue, right? Yue is a late script, if it is a pre-Qin period, it should be an ancient Yue script, right? There is a big difference between ancient Yue and Yue Chinese! Sister, did you sleep in class? "I was almost frightened by her, but I also studied a little bit of history while researching the diagram behind it.
Yu Qian was instantly embarrassed, touching the jade piece and smiling awkwardly.
"Yes, yes, yes! Former Qin is an ancient Yue language! Ancient Yue Wen! But this kind of writing has not been found so far. But Yue Wen has made a discovery! The text on this jade tablet is in Yue. Moreover, the costumes, headdresses and other decorations of this ancient corpse can be seen that this corpse should be from the Qin and Han dynasties. Yu Qian then deduced the age of the corpse's owner.
I'm blindfolded on this, because I don't know about these things. However, with Yu Qian's words, I probably know what the price of these three treasures is, and after I go out, I won't be pitted.
"However, if this ancient tomb is from the Qin and Han dynasties, how can the suppression ritual on the top of the head be...... Ming Dynasty's? "Subsequently, I realized the problem.
At this moment, Yu Qian was also stunned and a little at a loss.
"Moreover, the tombs of the Qin and Han dynasties did not use coffins?" When we came in, all we saw was the body suspended, but there was no coffin.
In the Qin and Han dynasties, the coffin was the most important burial ritual, right? Moreover, the coffins of the Qin and Han dynasties also have the saying that the coffins are generally huge. Here, how is there nothing?
Yu Qian can't explain it, and I don't know it even more. The more they thought about it, the more wrong it became, and the more they thought about it, the more mysterious they felt. Before we knew it, we both had feelings of fear, and we both had the idea of leaving here immediately.
So the two of them turned around in unison, and prepared to return the same way they came.
However, Yu Qian only took two steps forward, and suddenly her body froze in place, showing a stride posture.
I was stunned for a moment, and instantly thought of a possibility. The way I came was blocked again! The countermeasure of the burning is only temporary. When the temperature goes down, the black water will fill again.
By this time, my torch was on the verge of being extinguished!
It was at this moment that there was a rumbling sound at the door of the main burial chamber, as if some mechanism had been activated. Because of the black water, we don't know anything.
In a panic, I took off my pants and wrapped myself around the torch to ignite it. got Yu Qian out as soon as possible, and then without saying a word, he immediately opened the way and rushed to the tomb gate.
It was easy to get a torch to open the way, but when I rushed to the tomb gate, I was dumbfounded.
The tomb door was closed, and the rumbling sound was the sound of the tomb gate.
"It's ...... The protective mechanism of the burial chamber. Broken Dragon Stone! It weighs at least ten tons! "I touched the tomb door, and in an instant I knew what kind of existence it was.
Yu Qian seemed to have thought of it a long time ago, but she was not looking at the tomb gate, but behind her. I noticed that she was looking behind us with frightened eyes.
Behind him, at this time, a very inopportune sound sounded.
Just like the ghosts in horror movies, they all make a disturbing sound before they appear.
"Huh...... It must be that I have watched too many horror movies, and in this environment, there are auditory hallucinations. I laughed and comforted myself.
After all, it's the plot of a horror movie, how can that happen in reality.
But it backfired, the voice kept ringing and didn't stop, Yu Qian also looked back at me in horror and asked, "If both of you hear it, is it still an auditory hallucination?" ”
After speaking, the voice of the haze came from far and near. Through the firelight, I could already see a figure moving.
At this moment, I was cold from my head to my feet, and the whole person immediately started to swing. I've lived so old that I've even seen a rare white snake, but this is the first time I've seen this thing! This thing isn't fun!
"Run!" I let out a scream, picked up Yu Qian, and rushed to the other side of the tomb.
The figure followed our footsteps, and it was very fast, and the sound of the air was like that in our ears.
Half of the tomb was turned, and the thing chased half of the tomb. And the torch in my hand has reached the last moment, and it will be extinguished immediately.
Once the fire is extinguished, it means that we will be trapped here by the black water, suffocated to death.
"We're going to find a way out!" Because the fire is smaller, our actions have become slow. But at this moment of crisis, Yu Qian became unusually calm.
Before I could figure out how she had changed, she handed me her assault pants.
Without saying a word, I immediately wrapped myself around the sapper shovel and saved the last flames.
When the flames came up, the light spread out in an instant. But just as the firelight lit up, a white hand suddenly inserted between me and Yu Qian.
I was startled and took a sharp step back. It was only after taking this step back that I could see that the figure that had been chasing us was already standing in front of us.
And as expected, this figure is the corpse of the tomb owner who I put down!
