When it comes to the golden silk nanmu coffin, perhaps the first thing that most people think of is the mausoleum of the ancient emperor.

In fact, it is true that most of the dynasties and dynasties have such a provision, only the royal family or the person approved by the emperor can use the golden silk nanmu as the coffin after death, which undoubtedly makes the golden silk nanmu coffin have an extremely noble status.

The reason why the ancient emperors admired the golden silk nanmu so much is that the wood of the golden silk nanmu is very special, not only the texture is fine, but also has the effect of natural antiseptic and insect protection.

No one wants their body to be bitten by insects after death, compared to ordinary people, the ancient emperors paid much more attention to their posthumous affairs, so they also had the noble status of golden silk nanmu.

After entering the burial chamber, we did not immediately approach the coffin of the golden silk nanmu.

From the stone chamber to the burial chamber with the golden silk nanmu coffin, we did not encounter the slightest danger along the way, nor did we touch any tomb security mechanism, which is a bit puzzling.

A luxurious ancient tomb with so many funerary goods, how can it be a bit unreasonable to have no anti-theft mechanism, isn't this equivalent to giving the burial goods in the tomb to the tomb robbers?

When I walked into the tomb robbery door, I saw a lot of burial goods piled up on both sides of the tomb door, including some bronzes that were extremely rare in the Han Dynasty.

I tiptoed closer, picked out a small round bronze tripod from the burial flat, and then placed it on the ground and rolled it in the direction of the coffin.

Everyone held their breath, and all they could hear in the chamber was the sound of the bronze tripod rolling.

After a long time, there was no reaction in the tomb, and it seemed that there was really no anti-theft mechanism.

"Let's go, it doesn't seem to be dangerous." When the rolling bronze tripod stopped, I said to the people beside me.

Since the height of the tomb is nearly half a meter higher than the tomb passage, there is no water in the entire burial chamber, and after soaking in the tomb passage for twelve hours, everyone can't wait to enter the burial chamber.

The length and width of this burial chamber are about four zhang, and like most burial chambers, a stone platform was built in the middle of the burial chamber to place the coffin.

The height of the stone platform is nearly half a meter, and it is made of granite, and a half-meter-high pottery tomb beast is placed in each of the four corners of the stone platform.

The shape of these four tomb beasts is different, each facing one of the walls of the tomb, and the golden silk nanmu coffin we see at the door of Mu is surrounded by these four tomb beasts.

In addition, there are many delicate reliefs carved on the stone walls on all four sides of the tomb, although a small part of the stone carvings have fallen off due to age, but most of them are still extremely well preserved.

"Sister Lizi, is this the legendary golden silk nanmu coffin?" Xiao Yue quickly climbed up to the stone platform where the coffin was placed, put his two hands on one end of the coffin, and said with bright eyes.

"Xiao Yue, be careful, if you touch the anti-theft mechanism in the tomb, it will be miserable." Li Huiyan admonished.

"Didn't the rice cakes have been tested just now, and there is no anti-theft mechanism in this tomb at all. Sister Lizi, do you want to say if this is a golden silk nanmu? Xiao Yue said impatiently again.

"It's the golden silk nanmu, yes, you better come down first, don't touch it yet. Just now, Zhang Sansan was just a test, and the anti-theft mechanism in the ancient tomb is not so easy to try out, have you forgotten how we got here? Li Huiyan said.

Xiao Yue reluctantly jumped off the stone platform, but still looked back at the golden silk nanmu coffin on the stone platform step by step, with an expression of eagerness to carry it home.

Li Huiyan is right, most of the anti-theft mechanisms in the ancient tombs are built extremely hidden, and they are not something that can be tested casually.

The reason why I did this was just in case, and there is no guarantee that there will really be no mechanism in the tomb, so it is better to be cautious.

We didn't rush to open the coffin on the stone platform, after all, we are not the kind of professional tomb robbers, and we are not thinking about the burial goods in the coffin.

Entering the tomb, the first thing we need to observe is naturally the reliefs on the surrounding walls, and most of the tomb owners of each ancient tomb will describe their own life deeds, which is also the most direct means for us to understand the tomb owner.

Compared to the ancient tomb above, the reliefs in this ancient tomb are much more complete, and the damage is almost negligible.

"Go and do what you want, whether it's looking at the reliefs or looking at the coffin, as long as you don't touch the contents of the tomb." I said to the people.

Hearing this, Xiao Yue immediately pulled Dong Shuang to run to the place where the coffin was placed, and it seemed that he really liked the golden silk nanmu.

Because He Zitong and the three of us did not have a good relationship, they also walked to the other side with great interest, and seemed to be more interested in the burial goods in the tomb.

For a while, there were only four people left in the field: me, Li Huiyan, and Qin Gong Dongdan.

"I'm not interested in these reliefs, so I'll find a place to rest first, and remember to call me when you're done." Qin Gong said.

"That...... I'm not too interested in reliefs, so I'd better go and see the legendary golden silk nanmu. Dong Shan also said.

The two of them left one after another, leaving only me and Li Huiyan observing the relief.

Because of Li Huiyan's previous guess, I don't have much hope for these reliefs in the tomb, if the owner of the upper and lower tombs is really the same person, then the content of these reliefs is probably the same as what we see in the main tomb of the ancient tomb above.

Having said that, Li Huiyan and I patiently observed it carefully, hoping to see something different in these reliefs.

As I expected, when my eyes fell on the first relief, I suddenly felt a little speechless, and it was the scene where the owner of the tomb was sealed in the main hall.

"Xiao Yan, do you say that the owner of this tomb is sick in the brain, the same mural has appeared in the tomb three times, and the content of this seal is put in the first place every time, is it possible that he belongs to the kind of person who loves to show off." Retracting my gaze from the relief, I said to Li Huiyan.

"It's normal, the ancient tomb was originally the residence of the tomb owner after death, and these lifetime glories are extremely important to the tomb owner, otherwise they would not have been carved into the main burial chamber where the coffin was placed." Li Huiyan said.

I said no more, and now that I knew the contents of the first relief, I didn't have the heart to look at it again, and instead set my eyes on the second relief.

Not surprisingly, I have also seen the content of the second relief, the third, the fourth...... My gaze almost flew over the murals, and by the time I saw the ninth, it was still exactly the same as the one we had seen before.

Although Li Huiyan didn't say anything, since she had seen it once, she didn't look at these reliefs carefully.

When the two of us saw the tenth relief, we finally saw a different scene, the content of this relief that we had never seen before.

After looking at the relief twice, I was stunned, turned my head to look at Li Huiyan, and saw that she also had a shocked expression.

In fact, the content of the tenth relief is very simple, only two figures are depicted, and the background behind them is not depicted, giving the impression that it is a half-finished work that has just been created.

The two figures in the tenth relief are both male, one of whom is prostrate on the ground, while the other is standing straight in front of him.

"Xiao Yan, the one kneeling on the ground seems to be the owner of the tomb, right?" I said to Li Huiyan.

"Well, judging from the clothes, it is true that he is the owner of the tomb, but the person standing in front of him does not look like an emperor, but like a Taoist leader." Li Huiyan nodded and said.

"Could it be that the owner of this tomb is a believer? But after all, he is a prince and a king, even if he believes, there is no need to kneel to a Taoist priest, it is really contrary to common sense. I said.

"It's a little confusing, maybe there are other reasons, let's continue to look at the next relief, maybe we can find the answer." Li Huiyan said with a frown.

In the end, we skip this strange relief for a moment and turn to the next one.

There are also only two people in this relief, who are the tomb owner and the Taoist priest who appeared in the relief above.

In the background of the relief, the owner of the tomb and the Taoist priest are in a magnificent hall, and in front of them there is a huge copper furnace of human height.

"What are they doing here?" I asked, a little confused.

"As expected, it should be alchemy." Li Huiyan said.

Since the First Empress of Qin, the emperors of all dynasties have pursued immortality, which has also made some Taoist priests and qi practitioners with alchemy skills become guests of the prime minister's mansion of some emperors.

Needless to say, the emperor's purpose in looking for these people is naturally to seek immortality, and most of those princes and nobles do this to please the emperor, maybe they can use this to get the emperor's attention, so that they can soar in the future.

"Then is he alchemizing for himself or to curry favor with the emperor?" I asked.

"I guess he's mostly for himself, you still remember the nursery rhyme that the old man in the deserted village said, laughing at Chen Wang Mu Changsheng, the descendants of the Nine Sons Tomb, most of the owners of this tomb are extremely obsessed with the art of immortality." Li Huiyan said.

"It makes sense, I think he probably didn't refine the elixir of immortality in the end, but in the end he angered the emperor because of something, so he had the descendants of the Nine Sons Tomb in the back, and it is estimated that he was beheaded by the emperor." I said.

Just seeing the content on the relief, combined with the nursery rhyme said by the old man in the deserted village, it is indeed easy for people to come to such a conclusion.

"It's not impossible, but we don't dare to say too sure right now." Li Huiyan said.

As soon as the words fell, I saw Li Huiyan's eyes suddenly widen with a ghost-like expression.

"Xiao Yan, what's wrong? Did you find anything? I hurriedly asked Li Huiyan.

"Zhang Sansan, take a closer look at the pattern on that Dan furnace, is it very familiar." After a long while, Li Huiyan said in a strange tone.

Hearing her say this, I quickly took a second look at the relief, and then the whole person was stunned, and muttered: "Grimace!" ”
