Chapter 28: The Liao Tomb
The clay pot has been placed for a long time, it will be very fragile, and it will crumble into slag when poked, and it can not be put into things, and it can not be used as an antique to watch, I believe that no one wants five cents two.
Taking advantage of the fact that the dwarf and the big man were pleased with the piles of clay pots, I took a cursory look at the burial chamber, which was oval in shape from the overall structure, with clay jars on both sides, weapons and wooden shelves, and no murals on the walls.
According to the owner of the antique shop, it is very likely that this is the tomb of the Liao Dynasty, and judging by the structure and the size of the burial chamber, this must be the tomb of a nobleman.
It's a pity that the current tomb is a pile of broken copper and iron, and there is nothing of value, but fortunately no coffin was found, otherwise I would definitely turn around and go back in disappointment.
"You two are laughing, these cans are garbage, worthless, let's go ahead and take a look!"
The dwarf didn't seem to believe me, and reached out to pick up a jar, but when he touched it, the jar suddenly collapsed, and with a few clicks of the pile of jars, it turned into a pile of scum and fell all over the ground.
"Fuck, it's fucking unlucky, this thing can't be touched, it's more squeamish than a woman!"
The dwarf was very frightened, and he cursed when he looked at the debris all over the ground, and I was worried that there would be poisonous spiders or poisonous snakes in the jar, so I hurriedly rushed over, dragged him aside, shone the flashlight on a pile of slag, and saw that nothing came out, so I sighed and said.
"Don't fucking touch it, there are organs in this kind of place, our brother is not a seventy-two grandson monkey, that head is off, but it won't grow back!"
I held the dwarf, followed behind the big head, and walked forward slowly, the gloomy atmosphere in the tomb made me a little breathless, but the dwarf grinned, I thought to myself, he was born to be a thief, and he was still happy to come out of this place?
The big head walked cautiously, and after passing through an archway, I was stunned by what I saw.
"This ...... This...... It's all valuable stuff, we're rich, haha......"
The dwarf laughed loudly, laughing presumptuously, and I tapped it on his head, pointing to the well-preserved coffin.
"Look, this is the main burial chamber, except for the contents of the coffin, the other things are worthless, let's not take it, open it quickly!"
I confess that the burial chamber was indeed luxurious, with wooden shelves under the walls on both sides, on which were placed many strange objects, armor, utensils, horsewhips...... However, these things look very ordinary, most of them are just shapes, and they will shatter when touched.
The big head spat a mouthful of phlegm on his hand, rubbed his hands a few times, squatted down, stretched out his hand and put it on the coffin, took a deep breath, snorted a few times, and wanted to move the coffin lid away, but he was riveting enough and blushed, but the coffin seemed to be immovable, so angry that he got up and kicked the coffin, and scolded and said.
"What the fuck, dwarf, come and help!"
The dwarf took the hoe and struck the coffin hard, but with a proper sound, the spark splashed, and he was very surprised, and immediately touched the coffin, and muttered in his mouth.
"Big head, it's not Lao Tzu who said you, this is a stone, you have to push it away, we have to work together!"
Listening to what the dwarf said, I am even more sure that this is the tomb of the Liao Dynasty, the tombs of that period were prevalent sarcophagus, and the Khitan people were dominant, and the nomadic atmosphere was strong, so there were so many utensils and horse whips in the tomb.
Touching the seal on my chest, I took a few deep breaths, squatted on the edge of the coffin and prayed silently for a few words before glaring at the short man and the big head.
"Don't be ambiguous, let's open it hard, we don't have much time!"
Three laborers, six powerful big hands, rested on the coffin, and we shouted together: "One...... Two...... Three ......", when the shouting reached three, this exerted force, the coffin made a few sounds, and a gap was revealed on the side, and a cold breath suddenly floated out of it, which scared the back of my neck cold, and hurriedly let go, jumped up and said.
"Get out of the way, toxic smoke!"
As soon as I finished speaking, a puff of white smoke came out of the gap that had just opened, and the frightened brother crawled back outside, probably the three of us have bumped into evil spirits, and are extremely sensitive to this kind of thing, the dwarf immediately hid behind me, stabbed me in the back and said.
"Brother Shanzi, do you say there is a ghost, how can it be cold!"
"Look at the way you are cowardly, where the ghost came from, it's poisonous smoke, let's go in when it disperses!"
The big head stood side by side with me, looking at the coffin inside, and the head didn't scold the dwarf, I looked at him sideways, he said this, but his face was frightened, and the huge head looked not only the spirit of the past, but the appearance of malaise.
I was taken aback, knowing that he had inhaled the poisonous smoke, and hurriedly pulled him along, shouting loudly as I stepped back.
"Go back further, white smoke is poisonous!"
The short man's leg was already injured, and when I said this, it was probably that my heart was too anxious, and I accidentally fell to the ground, and I wailed in pain while holding my foot, and I didn't have time to lift him up, and took his hand, and dragged him forward vigorously, until I stopped when I retreated to the first arch outside.
The big head was already drowsy, and I gasped for breath and pinched him hard, but unfortunately he still tilted his head and fainted on the ground.
"Fuck, it hurts me!"
I glanced at the short man, his feet were probably broken, and they were swollen like turnips, and I walked up, sat down next to him on the ground, took off his shoes and looked at them, and said helplessly.
"Shorty, it's okay now, the big head is unconscious, you have become lame, it seems that I can only go in alone!"
Because I didn't know the composition of the poisonous smoke, I didn't dare to rush to the rescue of the big head, but after thinking about it, this poisonous smoke may have been caused by the mixing of two chemicals when the coffin was opened, because the poisonous smoke could not be stored in the coffin for a long time.
I didn't expect that Chen Hui actually came down, when she called me, I almost fell asleep, seeing the flashlight in her hand shaking, I hurriedly stood up, and also shook the flashlight in response to her scolding.
"What are you pulling down, it's very dangerous, go back quickly!"
"It's dark outside, I'm afraid!"
Chen Hui replied to me and continued to walk towards me, I heard that it was dark, and I was immediately anxious like an ant in a hot pot, if I waited and delayed time, I was afraid that it would arouse the suspicion of others.
I patted the dwarf, snatched the hoe from his hand, patted him on the shoulder, and pointed to Chen Hui, who was walking over.
"You're a girl, take care of her and the big head, I'll go in alone, let's have a few big living people, can you still call a dead man to bluff the master?"
After speaking, I didn't care whether the dwarf agreed or not, I carried a hoe, held a flashlight, and walked in again, probably just released poisonous smoke, the smell in the tomb was a little strange, with a hint of sourness in the musty smell, I covered my nose, I didn't dare to breathe too hard, and when I entered the main tomb, the smell became very light.
"Sure enough, it's mixed with chemicals, damn it, Lao Tzu can't fight a dead man?"
I thought about it, poked the hoe into the crack of the coffin, and then put my waist and horse together, and with great difficulty I pried the lid out, and with a creaking sound, the lid was opened enough for me to reach in with one hand, and then I stopped, squatted on the edge of the gap, and raised the flashlight to shine inside.
Many people thought that there would be zombies or some kind of monster in the coffin, but in fact, it was not, there was only a black, paste-like dirt, Xi thought that this might be the corpse rotting into slag, so he boldly reached into it and touched it in a pile of disgusting sticky paste.
Actually, I was scared, worried that I would touch something like snakes and insects, and my mind came to the situation that my fingers were bitten and bloody, and my head and back were full of sweat, and my clothes were soaked in an instant.
Even so, I didn't retract my hand, I felt it all the way from the head of the coffin to the end of the coffin, there were no bones, no monsters, and nothing of value, which disappointed me.
"Damn, I don't believe it, such a big tomb, it is impossible not to even have a porcelain, do it again!"
I didn't give up, I put my hand in again, this time it was different from the last time, my whole arm went in, and if a zombie suddenly popped out of it, or a poisonous snake appeared, I would definitely die a terrible death.
Fortunately, I was lucky, and I found a bottle with a ring at the head of the coffin, which was wrapped in a layer of black dirt, and I don't know what it was, and put it aside, and then I touched it again, and when I touched it, my hand suddenly felt a little warm.
"What's that?"
I was taken aback and hurriedly withdrew my hand, but after thinking about it, I was unwilling, and I put my hand in again and pulled out the warm thing.
Even though it was covered in dirt, the thing in my hand still cast a beautiful red light, it was about a foot long and a palm wide, and it was warm and a little heavy in my hand.
I thought about it, took off my clothes, and immediately wiped the two objects, and when I was done, I looked at the two objects and immediately became excited.
"Damn, it's not in vain after all, these two things are comfortable to look at, and they should be worth some money!"
The bottle with a ring-shaped handle, the handle is like a cockscomb, the gray-white base, and the top is a piece of gold, which is very beautiful.
The other is a piece of blood-colored jade, without a trace of variegation, and there are several very old words engraved on it, which has a warmth to the touch.
Carefully putting things away, I pried the lid of the coffin over and closed it, and when I saw that there was no trace, I walked out excitedly.
The big man had woken up, and when he saw me coming out of it, he hurriedly stood up, looked at me and asked.
"Get out of here, we can't stay here any longer!"
I nodded, looked at the cigarette butt on the ground and said to the dwarf: "You, clean up everything we brought in, don't leave a trace for people to find us, after a while, I have to come to this place again!" ”
