Chapter 1071 Song Dynasty open-carved mandarin duck neck lock
Wu saw that he didn't believe it, and he had no choice, so he had to jump up the stone steps.
The stone steps were very stable, and there was no need to worry about the danger of sudden collapse, and when the blind men came up behind them, the fat man had already gone down the stone steps all the way down to the bottom of the pit.
Although there is no danger in this tomb so far, some details are strange and abnormal, Wu Yi told the fat man to be careful, don't capsize in the gutter at this time.
The fat man didn't answer, and he didn't know if he heard it or not, so he walked straight to the boxy coffin, he first circled around twice, and then seemed to have found something, squatted there and began to stretch his head to look, only to look at a few seconds, then turned his head and shouted at Wu and a few people,
"His grandmother is really insightful, who of you has ever seen a lock on the coffin?"
Wu Yi was stunned when he heard this, locked up? What locks are on? How is this possible!
The coffin is equivalent to a temporary residence in the yang world before the soul of the dead ascends to heaven, and the locked coffin, isn't the soul trapped and unable to ascend to heaven? In the past, there were that kind of coffins and bronze coffins, and there would be several circles of chains wrapped around the outside to prevent the corpses inside from being cheated, but they would not be locked, and the nature of the chains and locks was still different.
Wu asked as he walked over, "Are you mistaken, could it be that the pendant is seen as a lock by you, how can there be such a thing on the coffin?" ”
The fat man fiddled with his hand in front of him a few times, and immediately made a "clang" sound, saying,
"You see, it's not a lock, it's buckle."
Wu Yi walked over to take a look, and suddenly opened his mouth, only to see that the connection between the coffin lid and the coffin body on this side of the coffin was really a lock!
This lock is a jade lock in the shape of a mandarin duck, the whole body is hollow and openworked, the shape is flat oval, the jade is cyan, crystal moist, the design is very exquisite, the thin neck of the pair of mandarin ducks is intertwined upward, like the handle of the flower basket, the coffin lid and the lock on the coffin body are firmly locked.
Wu Yi couldn't help but be secretly surprised, it was really strange, how could there be a lock on this coffin? Can this still be called a coffin? It's just a big box, and only the box will have this kind of side lock!
Thinking of the box, Wu Yi couldn't help but be stunned again, the shape of the coffin in front of him was boxy, it was indeed like a big box, plus this lock, it was even more like! Wu Yi's head buzzed all of a sudden, and his heart said I. Damn, isn't it, is it a mistake, this thing is not a coffin at all, but a box that looks like a coffin?
If that's the case, then it makes sense to answer the second question I was wondering about.
Wu Yi wanted to tell this discovery, but when they saw the fat man, they were all full of interest at this time, and it was not good to splash them with cold water at this time, but their hearts were in a mess.
Seeing that Wu Yi was in a daze and didn't speak, the fat man poked him with his elbow and said,
"What's the matter, tell me quickly, is this thing a lock?"
Wu nodded hurriedly and said,
"It's really a lock, and it's a Song Dynasty openwork mandarin duck neck lock, this thing was unearthed in Changyugou in the eighties, and now it's in the museum of our capital, but that one is an openwork folding branch flower lock, from the perspective of artistic modeling and craftsmanship, this one is more valuable than the one in the museum."
When the fat man heard this, he first said proudly, Lao Tzu said that it was a lock, you still don't believe it, after speaking, he patted his thigh again, and said,
"What kind of openwork mandarin duck do you say, what lock is very valuable? The one in the Capital Museum can't compare to this one? Isn't that a post, how much can it be worth if you take it out and sell it? ”
Wu Yi thought for a moment and said,
"This is already a first-class cultural relic, the kind with no price, it is rarer than bronzes, and I have never heard of anyone trading this kind of thing until now, so I can't tell how much it will be worth, but at least it will not be lower than this amount."
Wu Yi said and made a gesture, and the fat man shouted in surprise when he saw this,
"Good boy, not less than 700,000? No matter how hype and hype are raised, this lock can be exchanged for a suite in the capital! A lock for a suite, it's really a lot of money! ”
Wu Yi knew that the fat man wanted to go elsewhere again, and said,
"If you want to take it out and sell it for a house, you have to be able to take it off this coffin first, and then say, you see that the lock on it is one, which means that when people built this lock, they didn't plan to take it off again.
If you want to take it off, you have to break the part that connects it, and if you break it, it is worthless, or you can carry it out with this large coffin. ”
Wu Yi said this, but also wanted to give the fat man a preventive shot first, so that he would not be so excited, so as not to be too disappointed when he found that there were no good things in this box.
However, the fat man waved his hand indifferently and said,
"Xiao Wu, your brain is too rigid, what do you not break and not break, and you can't carry it away? You are stupid, we can't open this mandarin duck lock, but you can dig out the two locks that it locked, and wait until you get out, and then find someone to melt the locks, so you don't have to destroy this valuable lock! ”
Wu Yi was dumbfounded when he heard this, the fat guy was simply invincible when he played a little clever, and he actually thought of a way to crack it at once.
This can't help but remind Wu Yi of when he was still in elementary school, when the front and back doors of the classroom were the kind of padlocks, sometimes I went early, and the students with the keys in their hands had not yet arrived, and the students who went early liked to pull out the locks of the padlocks directly from the door panel to open the classroom door.
Later, the security door was changed, and this method did not work, but it was extremely suitable for use here.
The fat man is a practical combat faction, he will do what he says, and beckoned Ye Wuxin to dig with him, the two of them squatted there, and one of them held a paratrooper knife to dig the coffin lid and the lock on the coffin body respectively.
The coffin board is not too thick, and the lock is certainly not very deep, even if there is a barb at the back, as long as the hole is dug a little bigger, the whole thing can be pulled out.
The fat man scolded Ye Wuxin while digging,
"Slow down, slow down, you guy was very honest just now, how can you dig up so badly, don't rub the tip of the knife against this jade lock, rub a scratch out, then this lock is not so valuable."
Ye Wuxin ignored him and continued to bury his head in digging holes around the lock.
Wu Yi and a few people had nothing to do at this time, they thought that they would be able to open the coffin directly, but no one expected that there would be a lock on it, Wu Yi was stunned for a while and was not idle here, and went around to the side, ready to take a look at the coffin that he saw when he was on it just now, and the ones written on the coffin may be the prayer for the soul to ascend to heaven.
