Chapter 300: Opening the Coffin

In front of the tombs of Xiao Jinsong and Jin Feng.

Xiao Ling knelt in front of the tombstone and kowtowed, "Dad, Mom, please forgive my son's unfilial piety!" ”

After kneeling down, Xiao Ling picked up the hoe next to him and began to dig the soil.

When he came back this time, Xiao Ling didn't tell anyone, he sneaked back.

Almost twenty years have passed, and the soil of the cemetery should be relatively hard, but as soon as Xiao Ling went down with a hoe, he felt that the soil was extremely loose. He stopped at once, brushed aside the weeds, and found that the dirt below looked rather loose as it had been built up long ago.

Without thinking much about it, Xiao Ling dug a few more hoes on the side of the mound near the ground, because of the underestimate, the shock was numb.

If someone hadn't touched this place, it would have been impossible for two diametrically opposed phenomena to occur, and every time he came to worship, Xiao Ling also knew very well that the mound was actually collapsing year by year, except that the coffin inside had collapsed due to decay, which also showed that the soil on the mound was constantly becoming dense!

Someone has definitely touched the graves of their parents!

Thinking of this, Xiao Ling immediately started and continued to dig.

An hour later, the grave was completely dug up, revealing a coffin that had almost decayed. It should be a joint burial, so this coffin is much larger than an ordinary coffin.

Xiao Ling knelt down in front of the coffin a few more times before taking the two huge porcelain jars that were placed aside. - This is what he was going to use to hold the bones of his parents.

Then, Xiao Ling opened the lid of the coffin, because it was so corroded that the coffin fell apart when it was touched.

After carefully cleaning the lid of the coffin, Xiao Ling was immediately taken aback: there was only one skeleton inside! Although the remains were only white bones, looking at the hair on the head, you could know that it should be a male corpse!

Why is it that there is only the remains of the father, and where did the remains of the mother go?

Above the remains was a futon, almost rotten.

Looking at the remains, Xiao Ling bowed again, and then began to clean up the sheets, he was a little reluctant, thinking that maybe his mother was relatively short and might have been covered by the futon.

But when he finished cleaning up, he found that there was no trace of the remains under the bedding at all!

Xiao Ling checked it carefully again, and he understood it all in his heart: when he was buried, his mother was not put together with his father at all!

Holding back the sorrow in his heart, Xiao Ling turned his head and glanced at Xiao Ruozhu's grave next door, and muttered, "Second uncle, what was the situation in the first place?!" Where the hell is my mom? Isn't she dead? ”

Thinking about it, Xiao Ling's heart ignited a trace of hope, feeling that his mother was really alive!

In order to facilitate the collection of the remains, and in order to bury the porcelain jar, Xiao Ling moved the coffin out of the grave in its entirety, but fortunately, the lower half of the closed door was still relatively strong, and it did not disintegrate when it was moved.

When collecting his father's bones, Xiao Ling's heart was already full of doubts: judging from the damage to the coffin, it had not been passive before, otherwise it would have fallen apart long ago. But why is the soil so loose?

Also, what was the situation back then, and why didn't I see my mother's remains?

In the end, since the grave was dug up, nothing abnormal has been found, but why is there no animal trace in the vicinity of this tomb?

But after thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Ling couldn't think of anything.

However, this time it was not in vain, at least he already knew that his mother was indeed not here!

After collecting Xiao Jinsong's remains, Xiao Ling jumped into the pit again, preparing to dig a small pit underneath to prevent the porcelain jar from turning over when the soil was built again.

After only two planings, Xiao Ling immediately noticed that something was wrong: there was a place near the edge of the pit where the soil was much looser than other places, and the soil quality was also a little different, and it was filled in from behind at a glance!

Xiao Ling's heart was shocked, and he immediately cleaned up the loose soil quickly. In a short time, an 'L'-shaped thief hole appeared, and the end of the thief hole was just below the coffin!

Obviously, someone dug up the top of the mound first, and after finding that the coffin had decayed, in order not to destroy it, another hole was dug along the side of the coffin, and it was dug all the way to the ground of the coffin.

Judging from the shape of the cave and the traces at the bottom, there must have been something similar to a hemispherical shape placed there!

Could it be that the gravedigger is actually for this thing?!

Who is this man? How did he know there was something hidden in there?

Xiao Ling frowned, and began to wonder in his heart: The second uncle definitely knew about this, and it must have been that he hid things here when he was buried!

But what is that?

Xiao Ling was puzzled, because this thing must also belong to his parents, otherwise, it would be impossible for the second uncle to bury it together!

Although his mother's remains were not found, Xiao Ling's heart was still a little happy, in his opinion, this was a good sign, maybe hope was really waiting for him ahead!

After reburying his father, Xiao Ling returned to his home where he had lived for more than ten years, and began to search the house carefully, and he did not let go of an inch.

However, he was disappointed.

…………

Looking at the red sandalwood box in his hand, Sun Jintang's eyes were shining.

"Mr. Luo, judging from the manufacturing process and techniques of this thing, it should come from the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and its original owner identity is absolutely extremely noble!"

"Brother Sun has good eyesight, I wonder if I can see whose thing it is?" Luo Yi said with a smile.

"Isn't it already marked on the box, it originally belonged to a family surnamed Ji!" Sun Jintang pointed to the words on the box.

"But the surname Ji is everywhere in the country, how can you know which one it is?" Luo Yi frowned.

"The surname Ji is sheng in Zhou, and the main fiefs are Lu, Yan, Bi, Xing, Yu, Guan, Qi, Wu, Jin, Wei, Cai, Cao, Teng, Yun, Yu, Huo, Yang, Ji, etc., all of whom are nobles of the Zhou royal family, especially Lu Yan." Sun Jintang talked eloquently.

"Brother Sun is really condescending if he doesn't become a professor in the history department!" Luo Yi clapped his hands and smiled.

"Mr. Luo, don't laugh at me, let's eat this bowl of rice, if you don't understand the historical facts, wouldn't you be sorry for this profession, let people laugh at it, and it is easy to be pitted by buyers!" Sun Jintang smiled proudly.

"But I heard that in addition to the Zhou royal family, there was another family that was also extremely prosperous at that time." Luo Yi quietly took Sun Jintang in the direction he set.

"You're talking about Jiang Shang!" Sun Jintang smiled.

Luo Yi nodded and said, "He was extremely beautiful at that time, and no one could beat him!" ”

"The scenery is the scenery, and in the end, it is not for people to be destroyed!" Sun Jintang sighed: "How can this person have a degree, and the consequences of being too late are often more serious!" ”

"yes, it's not a good thing to be too sharp after all!" After Luo Yi echoed a sentence, the words changed: "Who do you say this thing once belonged to?" ”

"It's hard to say, I have to go back and study it carefully, otherwise it's hard to draw conclusions." Sun Jintang groaned.

"How long does it take?"

"It looks like Mr. Luo is still an anxious child!" Sun Jintang laughed and said, "Don't worry, I'll start investigating as soon as I go back!" ”

"Thank you so much, Brother Sun!" Luo Yi arched his hand at him: "Then I'll wait for Brother Sun's good news?!" ”

"No problem, in two days, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer!" Sun Jintang stood up.
