Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Female Corpse
"Hold the grass, what a thing!" As soon as the light flickered, Ge Zhuang could see it clearly, and he was so frightened that his throat and eyes smoked on the spot, and he roared in a dumb voice.
Lao Zhong said that what the hell is howling, it's a zongzi, hurry up and give him a shovel!
After Ge Zhuang heard this, he went to grab the shovel, I had already jumped up, and stabbed the dagger and the head into the chest of the zongzi first, and then I saw that the "zongzi" who attacked me was actually Lao Jiu, who had followed the leper three to the tomb before, how did the two of them make this ghost?
He is not a real zongzi, but he doesn't know how to do it, he has been scared crazy, that kind of terrifying expression, only after experiencing an extremely terrible picture, I stabbed him through the chest, there was red blood in the wound, Lao Jiu's struggling body was soft, and he was pressed to the ground by Lao Zhong.
I said don't press the old bell, this special mother is not a zongzi at all, how can there be a zongzi that will bleed, this is Lao Jiu, another guy who accompanied the leper to the tomb three times.
Hearing me say this, Lao Zhong let go of the hands that were pressing on his back, rubbed his bruised head and said, "Malegobi, if you don't say a word, you deserve to be stabbed to death." ”
Lao Jiu, who fell in a pool of blood, was still convulsing, the dagger I stabbed into his chest was not pulled out, this knife was impartial, it must have pierced the blood vessels of Lao Jiu's heart, once the dagger and head were pulled out, it would inevitably cause the effect of blood blowout, I still had something to ask him, so I kept him alive for the time being.
I pressed Lao Jiu who was twitching to the end, and I couldn't see any anger in his cloudy eyes, even if I pierced the heart, he was still in a deep state of stupeness and panic, and I shouted while he was still breathless, "Say, why are you attacking us, what do you want to do?" ”
Lao Jiuliang didn't answer for a long time, blood gushed out along the corners of his mouth, trembled for a few seconds, and suddenly turned his chin yang qi to me with a cruel and weird sneer, "hehe", and his neck suddenly went down.
The old bell hurriedly reached out to check his snort, retracted his fingers for a while, did not speak with a cold face, and made a gesture to wipe my neck.
I'm so annoyed that I shouldn't have been in such a hurry to kill him, but now it's good that there is one more dead man, and we still haven't found the exit, if we can keep him, maybe we can find a way to escape from this evil tomb.
When a man died, there was no need to plug his wounds, so I reached over and grabbed the hilt of the knife, and suddenly pulled the dagger and the head out of his ribs, and a large stream of blood gradually fell to the ground, and I quickly dodged a little, so as not to get caught in the blood.
Ge Zhuang touched it and whispered, "How can you do it, two people go to the grave together, and one dies and the other is scared crazy, this is really evil!" ”
The old bell said don't talk nonsense, little pumpkin, hurry up, get all the fire, it looks like we've jumped into another grave!
Hearing this, I quickly turned the flashlight to the maximum, took off another piece of the dead man's clothes, poured diesel fuel on it, and lit it with a lighter.
The light was bright and dim, flickering and flickering, and by the light of the jumping fire, I realized that after a series of struggles, we had indeed appeared in another grave, with coffins and stones in front of us, and above us was a dome in the shape of a pagoda, with beams and stone pillars connected to each other, carved beams and jade buildings, although they had been corroded to the point of not being able to look like them in the long river of time, but we could still feel the glory of the year.
"Could it be that this is the real tomb of Li Bing?" Ge Zhuang smacked his tongue, stared at the top of the pagoda-shaped tomb, and suddenly struck a spirit, saying no, little pumpkin, there is a tomb in this tomb, which violates the burial law of the ancients, could it be deliberate?
I can't tell you clearly, but where can I find out what the ancients thought in their hearts? Let's take a look ahead, the coffin has been pried open!
After saying this, I stood up and cautiously approached the coffin of the main tomb with the old bell. The tomb we are in at the moment is not big, six meters square, the whole tomb looks like a cylinder, the bronze coffin is placed three meters away from us, under the coffin is a stone platform, the stone platform is imprinted, combined into a very rare pattern, I don't understand, subconsciously turned to Ge Zhuang, here he has the highest education.
Ge Zhuang said Little pumpkin, what are you looking at me for, I'm not an archaeologist, how can I understand so much? I pointed to the tadpole-like rune mark under the coffin, and said, Don't you still know the little seal? Ge Zhuang said that you are really a pig's brain, where is this like a small seal? It is not an ancient script that belongs to the Central Plains region at all.
I paused for a moment, and the old bell had already walked to the edge of the coffin with a torch, carefully bypassed the platform, and then exclaimed, "Come and see, there is really a woman lying in the coffin!" ”
Woman?
Ge Zhuang and I glanced at each other, and hurriedly ran towards the old bell, under the reflection of the alternating light and dark firelight, a woman's face was revealed in the coffin that was opened, with a ruddy and delicate complexion, no different from just after death, Ge Zhuang put on snakeskin gloves, tentatively pinched the female corpse's face, and turned back to me with a smile, "Little pumpkin, the skin of this female corpse is very slippery, like jelly, could it be Li Bing's little daughter-in-law?" ”
I scolded Ge Zhuang, saying that fat man, you are especially respectful to the ancients, the female corpse cannot have anything to do with Li Bing, you look at the configuration of the coffin, the bronze coffin plus the triple set of coffins, the one who is qualified to enjoy this treatment must be the ancient princes, I am afraid that the power may not be smaller than Li Bing.
Ge Zhuang was immediately puzzled, and said Little pumpkin, could it be that Qin has a precedent for recommending women to be big officials?
I said how is it possible, there was no imperial examination in the Qin and Han dynasties, the ancients recommended people to be officials in the way called "filial piety", ninety-nine are men, there seems to be no precedent for women to be big officials in the Qin era, the court is specially set up by the palace maid to hold the official position, but after death absolutely do not enjoy this kind of tomb treatment, and the Qin palace is in Xianyang, and the special Dujiangyan is separated by hundreds of kilometers.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, our ancestors created a very strict classification system for men and women, unless it was some clans and tribes that had not yet obeyed Wanghua in ancient times, there was no precedent for women to "sleep on the big kang".
Lao Zhong groaned, "In other words, this woman shouldn't be from the Qin Kingdom?" I nodded, and pointed to the coffin below, those "rune tadpoles" presented on the stone platform, saying that this is not the Qin State at all, before Yingzheng implemented cultural unification, the Chinese characters have not been unified, nor simplified to the current state, the font in ancient times is more like a simple picture, you look at these "words", like the special ghost painting symbols, obviously do not belong to the Qin Dynasty.
Lao Zhong said that this is strange, no matter whether the person buried in the last tomb is Li Bing or not, we can at least be sure that he belongs to the Qin Dynasty, why is there another woman buried near the tomb of this Qin Dynasty official?
Ge Zhuang said with a tiger's head, "Maybe people feel lonely and want to be neighbors with this beauty?" It's okay to run through the door by the way. You see, a man and a woman stay in such a secluded and narrow place, not far away, dry wood and fire, maybe they can even get married! ”
