Chapter 70: Hanging beads in the mouth
"Dead fat man, don't scream nonsense, you want to cheat the corpse when you go out of the yang energy!" The second master pounced on him and covered Ge Zhuang's mouth. Ge Zhuang couldn't make a sound, but his eyes were very wide, and he couldn't hide his horror, and he gave me a look.
The second master hugged Ge Zhuang and pulled the person a little farther away, then let go of his hand, found a piece of cloth for him to cover his mouth, and scolded with a tiger face, "You still want to fight with this little experience, don't you know how to write dead words?" ā
Ge Zhuang rarely didn't talk back, turned his big face to me, his mouth shook into blue, a small pumpkin, a female corpse...... IāI've seen it!
I said you are a special tiger, the ancients of 2,000 years ago, can you know it? Ge Zhuang waved his hand vigorously, a little incoherent, his lips stumbled and said, "No, little pumpkin, listen to me, I saw her in a dream, that is, after the coffin was fished back to Xiaoyizhuang that day, I had a nightmare that night, and the woman with hole-covered eyes in the dream was ...... It looks exactly like the one in the coffin! ā
Hearing him say this, I also "chuckled" in my heart, quickly picked up Chen Yun, stretched my neck to look, when I was sure that I saw the appearance of the female corpse clearly, I also felt a "buzz" in my head, as if thousands of bees had broken in, and my back was very cold.
On the night of the corpse, Ge Zhuang and I had the same strange dream, the environment in the dream was exactly the same, we both met a woman riding on a big red coffin, that woman, didn't she look exactly like the corpse in the jade coffin?
Ghost...... What a ghost!
Ge Zhuang and I were a little scared, if the dream last time was just a warning to us from this thousand-year-old zongzi, then we directly took the people of the scientific expedition team to the grave, and dug up her coffin board with our own hands, this is to offend the old zongzi to death!
"Why are you shivering, you don't think it's hot enough here?" The second master didn't understand the situation, and questioned me and Ge Zhuang, so I trembled my lips and said the words to him, the second master looked very strange at first, stunned for a while, and then sneered disdainfully,
"How can there be any ghosts, gods, there are zongzi, but that's because after being poisoned by the corpse, the mold in the body mutates, and the corpse fraud reaction formed is completely different from the ghost, haven't I explained it before? A ghost is a magnetic field, similar to human brain waves, and not as terrifying as rumored. ā
He added, "Have you ever heard of the ghost of the Forbidden City? is that every thunderstorm, some people will see a large number of palace maids and eunuchs in the corridor of the Forbidden City, walking in line, and saying that the concubines who died unjustly spit pearls, and spread the gods. ā
These are because after death, the EEG magnetic field is preserved in some unknown way, people have a magnetic field, whenever someone passes by, the two magnetic fields resonate, and the magnetic field left by the dead person will be emitted in the brainwaves of the living person, so there are hallucinations, what is there to be afraid of?
I said Second Master, how can you always explain supernatural events with scientific truth, could it be that you are also a scientist? The second master's face darkened, and he said that when I was young, I stayed abroad with your grandfather, and in that era, I was considered a top intellectual, but it was just ......
He didn't go on, but urged us to find it, it was the last hope to break the curse, and he didn't want the hole in his body to spread again.
I settled down and looked back at the female corpse, the same as on the mural, the female corpse really has a third eye on her forehead, the eyelids are vertical and long, and the eyelids will be closed after death, so I can't see the color of her eyes, except for this, she looks quite normal, her figure is relatively petite, and it is no different from ordinary women, she should have everything, and it is quite big.
But I don't know if it's an illusion, I always feel that this female corpse is weird, the first impression is evil, especially weird, suddenly I patted my head and thought, dead for two thousand years, has it been embalmed, but this female corpse is almost the same as when she just died, of course it's evil!
Ge Zhuang saw that the female corpse had not moved, and he was much bolder, wearing gloves, he touched the female corpse's face, and smacked his mouth, "Such a beautiful daughter-in-law, it's a pity that she was born too early, otherwise, how good it would be to accompany the fat man and me back to warm the bed!" ā
"Dead fatty, shut up!" The second master and I changed our faces at the same time, and we both turned our heads and stared at him.
Although the second master said that ghosts are not terrible, but the old feudal exquisiteness has long been deeply rooted in his bones, the second master is actually still particular about some taboos, in front of the dead, especially such a weird thousand-year-old female corpse, nonsense is the easiest to get into unclean things.
Ge Zhuang was frightened by the eyes of the two of us, shrunk his head, and said What are you doing, you are all targeting me?
"Hey, there seems to be something in the mouth of the female corpse." At this time, Chen Yun, who had been silently observing the ancient corpse, spoke, she pointed to the slightly bulging jaw of the female corpse, and said What is this?
We all looked back, the female corpse's cherry mouth seemed to be open, her chin was slightly raised, and it really seemed to be holding something in her mouth, Ge Zhuang said, what else could there be in her mouth? Tongue, it must be that she has a big tongue, maybe she was a long-tongued woman when she was alive, and she likes to spread gossip the most......
"Dead fatty, why don't you speak, no one treats you as a dumb person!" I was helpless, turned around and glared at him fiercely, and said good, shut your mouth, go out and I'll buy you a lollipop.
Ge Zhuang sighed and ignored me, the second master had already put the rubber gloves back on, looked at me and said, "Sima Nan, find a way to pinch the female corpse's mouth open, and I'll go into her mouth to fish." ā
I grabbed the triangular army thorn, handed it to Ge Zhuang behind me, and said Fatty, exchange your dagger for me. Ge Zhuang immediately changed with me, and then the second master and I stepped on the side of the coffin alone, squatted down gently, and asked Chen Yun to use a flashlight to help us illuminate.
The closer I got to the female corpse, I actually smelled a faint fragrance, the taste was very light, but it couldn't be said to smell good, like the fragrance of pollen, I couldn't help but be stunned, joking that the quality of the rouge gouache of the ancients was good, and it could be preserved for two thousand years.
The second master sniffed vigorously and said that there is no fragrance, you kid is obsessed, right? I said Second Master, you will smoke less dry tobacco in the future, the smoke and feces have blocked your nostrils, and your sense of smell is not working, right? Chen Yun also looked up and asked me, saying Sima Nan, I didn't smell any fragrance, you smelled it alone!
I could only stop talking, concentrate on the work at hand, stuffed the dagger into the small mouth of the female corpse little by little, slowly passed it in between the teeth, and gently pried it up, and then, the female corpse's mouth opened wide, and actually spit out a bead the size of a cat's eye.
The beads, about the size of my fingernails, were amber and platinum-colored, glowing slightly under the flashlight, and the light reflected was crystal clear.
"It's the pearl of the night!" Chen Yun exclaimed. The second master was also excited, but he shook his head and said no, the real night pearl can shine, and the light on this bead is reflected by a flashlight, not a variety.
I said what is that? The second master looked at it for a while, and suddenly raised his face with excitement, his eyes flashed, and said If I guessed correctly, this bead is the thing that causes us to be cursed, and if we want to lift the curse, we must also rely on it!
