"Tom!"

With Hu Qi's roar, the stone door finally closed tightly, making a dull sound; I saw Hu Qiyi sitting on the ground, not even bothering to wipe the sweat on his face, just panting to relieve the consumption of his physical strength. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info and at the same time, Lin Zi's heart hanging high in the air with me instantly fluttered and fell back to its original position.

No one thought that they would encounter a mechanism just after entering the tomb, I handed the military kettle I carried with me to Hu Qi, who was panting, looking at the stone gate that had been tightly closed at this time, and my heart was lost for a while;

Along the way, he was attacked by vampire bats, which led to the death of Shun Si, followed by the attack of blinding eyes in the jungle and the attack of a group of ghosts; finally found a place, and Hu Laoqi was abducted under our noses again; And now, something like this has happened!

Since we came here, we never seem to have had a smooth sail, and the process has been moving forward with difficulty; My mind was in turmoil, and I felt as if I was back in the wheel burial in the back mountain, and my mind was always flooded with a sense of panic and uneasiness; In fact, Lin Zi and Hu Qi's state is not much better; It's just that the matter has come to this point, and we have no way out! Hu Laoqi was taken captive, and we can only find him in the tomb.

I shook my head frantically a few times, trying to control myself not to think about the chaotic past, but focused on the location of the stone gate!

In fact, I have long found that the quicksand door here seems to be different from what I usually see, because some of the common quicksand door mechanisms are set on the top of the door; Therefore, some experienced tomb robbers will involuntarily focus on the upper part of the door when observing whether the tomb door has a mechanism, and ignore the foot, Hu Qi is a very clear example. As a veteran tomb robber who has been out all year round, even he can almost be tricked, can you imagine what the owner of this tomb has in mind? It's clear that you know something about the usual methods of tomb robbers!

Thinking of this, I was a little looking forward to knowing who the owner of this tomb was. How can you think about your future in such a long-term way?

"This quicksand gate is not ordinary! How are we going to break it? ”

At this time, Lin Zi and Hu Qi also came to their senses; The first time he encountered a mechanism buried in the ground, he was a little confused, so he could only ask Hu Qi for a way to crack the mechanism.

In order to save battery, we only turned on a strong flashlight for lighting; The lonely corpse still hung quietly behind us, but after what had happened in front of us, we didn't pay much attention to it when we first went to the grave.

"Hehe, in fact, it could have told us the answer, but now it's dead!"

Hu Qi listened to Lin Zi's words, and suddenly pointed to the female corpse hanging in the air behind us and sold us Guanzi; It looked like he already knew how we were going to get out of this door.

"You mean she's still alive after the funeral?"

Although the meaning of Hu Qi's expression was very vague, I could quickly hear that Hu Qi obviously had something to say, and he wanted to use the name of the dead corpse to reveal to us the answer to go out from here.

In fact, what I said is not just because of the analysis of Hu Qi's words, but because from the Qin to the Qing Dynasty, there are many examples of the use of living people for burial.

Take the death of the daughter of King Wu as an example, according to the record of "Wu Yue Chunqiu", the daughter of King Wu Lu committed suicide because of her resentment against her father, and Lu was very sad, and built a tomb for her daughter outside the gate, "digging the ground for the pool, accumulating soil for the mountain", and making the funeral coffin for the exquisite carving, and using the gold tripod, silver bottle, and pearl and jade to treat the treasures as burial goods.

On the day of the funeral for his daughter, he made people dance with white cranes all the way, attracting thousands of citizens to follow and watch, and when they arrived at the cemetery, they "made men and women enter the door with the cranes, because of the plugging", that is, ordered all the men and women who followed the watch into the underground palace, and then plugged the tomb door. In this way, these people who watched the crane were buried in the grave and became the martyrs of the daughter of the Emperor.

However, although the examples of living burials are common, from the Qin Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, the martyrs were generally buried alive, or killed by him, or buried with them after committing suicide, and their methods were more brutal than those of King Wu.

It is said that after Zhu Yuanzhang's death, his grandson Zhu Yunwen inherited the throne, and according to Zhu Yuanzhang's will, Zhu Yunwen ordered the concubines who had not been born and raised in the harem to be buried all the way. As soon as the order was issued, it caused chaos in the imperial court, and the sound of crying and shouting was endless.

Because the pomp and circumstance were chaotic at that time, many officials took the opportunity to bend the law to announce personal vendettas, and there were also concubines who had not been born and raised who survived under the protection of some officials; Some of the concubines who had been born and raised were forced to be martyred because they offended certain officials. The history books call these concubines who were forced to be buried as "Chaotian Girls".

After giving the order of the funeral, the emperor sent someone to list all the concubines who met the premise of the harem one by one, and on the day of the funeral, these palace maids and concubines who were included in the funeral list were gathered in one room.

The eunuchs placed in the room in advance the number of Taishi chairs equal to the number of martyrs, and seven feet of white silk hung above each Taishi chair. The bolder palace maid gritted her teeth and stretched her head into the buckle made of white silk, and then pushed away the Taishi chair with her foot, and after a few minutes, she was silent. The cowardly palace maid was already frightened and sat on the ground trembling!

However, the eunuchs next to them did not let go of these palace maids who had no power to resist, and several of them carried a palace maid, forcibly helped these frightened half-dead palace maids to the Taishi chair, and then put the buckle made of white silk on the heads of these palace maids, and then moved the Taishi chair away.

There is also a more cruel theory, which is said to have been buried by injecting mercury into the body. In order to keep the burial concubines from decomposing like Zhu Yuanzhang's corpse, some courtiers and eunuchs adopted the initiation of injecting mercury into the concubines' bodies.

After Zhu Yunwen ordered the list of the buried concubines to be registered one by one, on the day of the funeral, all the concubines on the list were concentrated all the way, and then each of them was given a cup of tea with sleeping pills, and after these concubines fell asleep, the eunuchs next to them cut a piece of their heads, and the practitioner held a copper spoon and poured mercury into the cut part, and after pouring a certain amount of mercury, then sewed the head with a needle and thread.

From beginning to end, the mourners generally go to the grave to accompany them after they die; But according to the meaning expressed by Hu Qi, the female corpse behind us lived in the tomb as a burial companion, and also entered and exited the tomb door of this burial room......
