And in this book it says: 'The ancient burial is also paid for thick clothes, and the burial is in the wilderness, without sealing or trees, and the mourning period is innumerable. However, the saints of later generations changed it and took it from the coffin cover. ’

What does it mean?

This actually means that in ancient times, when people died, when the dead were buried, there was no coffin to bury them.

In the early days, most of the dead were only covered with thick firewood and buried in the wilderness, with no graves on them, no grave trees, and no mourning clothes without an expiration date.

However, Zhou Yi later broke with the conventions of the earlier period, and he created the container for burying the dead, that is, the earliest coffin.

But the coffin at that time was not called a coffin, and at the same time, the original coffin was just a large wooden box of equal size, but the evolution of Zhou Yi and later generations evolved the coffin step by step.

And it can also be seen from this that the earliest thing used for the deceased was a coffin, and there was no such thing as a coffin at that time.

So, fundamentally speaking, this coffin and the coffin are actually two different things.

Of course, these are all off-topic, but the purpose of saying this is also to tell everyone that Yuebai is not facing a pure coffin now, but a very complicated coffin.

If you want to open the coffin, you have to open the coffin first, or even more than just open a layer of coffin, and then, when the innermost coffin is exposed, then you can officially open the coffin and examine the body.

Therefore, when there were no more trivial matters, Yuebai looked at the center of the pool, then nodded to the fat man, and walked forward together, regardless of whether the coffin would exude an amazing aura, they just thought about how to open the coffin so as not to be filled with the pool water.

However, the best solution is to drain the remaining water from the pool, leaving it with a wet surface and no puddles.

However, the 'pumping machine' is no longer there, although Lu Xiaohuang did not explain when he was leaving, how long the water droplets that are still hanging in the air at this moment will last before they fall, but the only remaining water at this time is enough to pass the coffin under the rubble, which will also affect the progress of Yuebai and the others.

However, even if Lu Xiaohuang is still here, it is estimated that with Yuebai, the water god Lu will not be able to get all the stagnant water into the air, otherwise, Lu Xiaohuang would have done this before, why leave a little bit of stagnant water and stay here to raise dolphins.

"Or... Do you lend me additional strength? Let's carry this coffin into the corridor and then do it? ”

At this time, the fat man said: Since the remaining stagnant water can't be pumped away, then simply start from the coffin, after all, the tunnel is dry, so you won't let the stagnant water flow into it before the coffin is opened.

But Yuebai shook his head and said: "I don't know how many years this coffin has been soaked in water, even if its sealing effect is good, I am afraid that under the penetration of stagnant water for many years, it is enough to make the coffin seep full of stagnant water, I think, let's get it like this, anyway, the lord here is also dying, don't care if it is afraid of getting wet." ”

"Uh... It's also ha! ”

As soon as the fat man heard this, he hurriedly agreed, but he didn't mean that he agreed with Yuebai's analysis, but he was unwilling to exert himself.

Therefore, under the premise that the two of them don't like to waste their energy, the two Moon Kings only pulled the rocks around the coffin, and it was enough to make themselves stand more comfortable.

"Tianlu, you must help watch it!"

Before preparing to break the outermost stone skin of the coffin, Yuebai held two swords, and still told Tianlu uneasily.

"I know, I'll promise you now, I'll definitely keep you two from dying!"

"Hehe, I'm relieved to have your words."

Yue Baixin said: Tianlu, who is a divine beast, dares to promise himself, then at least his life and that of the fat man are guaranteed, and since this is the case, then he can do it boldly.

Said to do it, Yuebai nodded to the fat man for the second time, indicating that after he was ready, he first attached his double essence to the double sword, and then stabbed hard, inserting the tips of the two swords into the stone skin for an inch, and then his wrist turned and dug two small pits.

The inside of the small pit is already the second layer, Yuebai took a closer look, and found that there was actually a layer of stone coffin in the outermost stone skin, but the stone coffin inside was not the bluestone of this layer on the outside, but the most common volcanic rock here.

"Huh? Why is this coffin so thick? It's also layered! ”

The fat man didn't know anything about this, so he asked Yuebai, can the coffin cover on the outside of the coffin be like bamboo shoots?

"Uh... Maybe the dead ghost inside is very afraid of the cold, so I added a few layers of coffins to avoid the cold..."

But Yuebai didn't understand this, he saw that the fat man asked, so he sighed and said, "Actually... I don't know very much either. ”

"Hehe, I don't know if you still say that you kid can't be less enlightened and read more books? I said you're too biased! ”

After Tianlu listened to it, it was a joy, and then, it popularized the knowledge of this aspect to the two of them, saying: "Actually, the number of layers of the coffin has a lot to do with the identity of the deceased, and as far as I know, the number of layers of the coffin after the Zhou Dynasty is the most critical period of institutionalization..."

According to Tianlu's explanation, since the Zhou Dynasty, there was no deliberate restriction on the number of layers of the coffin, but after the Zhou Dynasty, the coffin was institutionalized, and the requirements and restrictions on the use of the number of layers of the coffin were carried out for people with different identities.

For example, the number of layers of conventional coffins after the Zhou Dynasty, the coffins of each dynasty and each generation of royal emperors, the coffins are fourfold, and the coffins in person are called coffins, which are not counted within the layers of the coffin.

Of course, the coffin of the Son of Heaven also has different names and restrictions on the name and material of each layer, which does not mean that you have four or five layers of coffins with one name, nor can they all use one material.

For example, the emperor's own coffin, that is, the coffin, needs to be covered with buffalo skin, and the second layer is called the ground, which should be made of basswood.

Its three layers are called genus, the four layers are called the big coffin, and the two layers of the outer coffin behind the ground, that is, the outermost two layers, have to use the wood of the catalpa wood, and because these two layers are catalpa wood, so it is called the Zigong Palace, also called the Zigong coffin!

But in addition to the emperor's coffin, which was formulated in such detail, you were like the Shanggong, Hou Bo, or Dafu in the Zhou period, and other officials were also divided into three tiers, that is, three tiers, or two and one tiers, according to the difference in rank.

However, during the Zhou Dynasty, people below the rank of scholars, and even ordinary people, could not use large coffins and coffins.

However, after Tianlu said this, it found a very serious detail, and then, on the fat man's shoulder, it raised its eyes and looked into the stone pit dug by Yuebai with his short sword.
