Chapter 114: Ascending the coffin and making a fortune
There is no love for no reason in the world, and there is no hatred for no reason, and the sky will not suddenly thunder so much during the day for no reason, and in the inauspicious air, it seems that this great change is brewing.
Except for the lightning in the gaps in the clouds, it was already dark all around, so I had to turn on the tactical spotlights on my mountaineering helmet again, and I was waiting to the other end of the canopy to take a look, but I found that the fat man who was about to open the coffin with me was nowhere to be seen, and I hurriedly asked Shirley Yang: "Have you seen Chubby?" ”
Shirley Yang shrugged her shoulders, she found something strange at the bottom of the jade coffin just now, and the sky suddenly darkened, so she didn't pay attention to where the fat man was, we hurriedly looked around, such a big living person, how could it be gone in the blink of an eye? There was not even a movement, I looked around, but found that there was a shoe next to the jade coffin, which was not someone else's, it was the fat man's sake.
At this time, from inside the completely closed jade coffin, there were suddenly a few "bumper bumper" knocks, and to my ears and Shirley Yang, the sound was even more thrilling than the thunder in the sky.
I didn't care about being scared at this time, and beckoned Shirley Yang to hurry up and help open the coffin to save people, why did the fat guy run into the jade coffin, could it be that he was touched by the zongzi in the jade coffin? But the cracks of this jade coffin are sealed with wax, except for a few small cracks, there is no other opening, how did the fat man get into it when he is so big? This is simply antimatter.
Shirley Yang was more cautious: "Don't worry, let's find out what's going on first, we can't be sure yet, the movement inside the jade coffin must be from the fat man." ”
I said to Shirley Young, "Can you not be in a hurry?" If you don't do it again, the cucumber dishes will be cold, if you are afraid, I will do it alone, and I have to take out the fat man if I say anything, I really *** don't believe that a coffin can scare us like this? ”
After I finished speaking, regardless of Shirley Yang's agreement, I buttoned the gas mask to my face, rolled up my sleeves and went to twitch the lid of the jade coffin. The jade coffin was closed so tightly that it was difficult to open it in a hurry, so he had to ask Shirley Yang to use a paratrooper knife to remove the wax from the gap in the coffin lid. I only listened to the knocking sound in the jade coffin, which came and went, and slowly stopped moving.
I was in a cold sweat, and when I saw that there was no movement suddenly, I thought that the fat man was probably done playing, and he had already gone to sell candy through the fart. When I was anxious, I suddenly tightened my feet and neck, and was grabbed by someone, I raised the pickaxe out of instinct, and I wanted to hit it when I returned my hand, but I heard someone say from behind: "Commander Hu, for the sake of the party-state, you hurry up and pull your brother, there is a big hole in this tree that can fall to death." ”
I looked back and saw that it was the fat man who was talking, and he was struggling to get out of a hole in a tree behind me, and I quickly reached out and pulled the fat man up. The hole is overgrown with all kinds of dense parasitic plants, like a natural trap that cannot be spotted without stepping on it. Like this kind of large and small holes, I don't know how many there are on this old banyan tree, all of them are covered with vines and green moss of plants, and it is easy to break the ankle when stepping on the small one, and catch up with the big one, the whole person may fall into it, and the plants at the entrance of the hole hate to be soft, and after the person falls in, it immediately closes, and it is not easy to see through.
It turned out that when we were just about to start "getting promoted and making a fortune", the fat man was startled by the sudden thunder in the sky, and unconsciously took a step back.
I looked at the fat man, and then at the jade coffin, if it wasn't for the fat man banging in the coffin to make a sound, who would it be? Could it be that there are really zombies in this world that can move during the day?
Shirley Yang saw that the fat man had climbed back, so he asked the fat man what was in the tree hole, and the fat man said that there was a lot of bones and rattans there, but he didn't dare to look closely, not to mention how smelly it was in the tree hole, and his choking brain hurt.
Shirley Yang said to me and the fat man: "You two come here to take a look, this incident is far beyond our expectations, the crew of the C-type transport plane, not all of them parachuted out, at least one person died here, his bones are pressed under this jade coffin, and the bottom of this jade coffin may be connected with the tree hole where the fat man fell." ”
I listened to what she said, so I stepped on the lid of the jade coffin and came to the other end, just as Shirley Yang said, there was a human hand pressed in the front corner of the tomb bed of the jade coffin, the palm of this hand was facing down, and it did not rot into white bones, but completely dried up, the black-brown dry skin wrapped the bones, the muscles and water were gone, and the four fingers were tightly inserted into the body of the tree under the jade coffin, thinking that after a long and painful struggle before death, the thumb of the hand bone pressed a small double-ended clip.
I was confused, completely confused, this is a dead man's hand, look at this corpse crushed under the coffin, who is he? And how did it get crushed underneath? What was the sound in the jade coffin just now?
Shirley Young said that this kind of double-ended clamp, when the Allies counterattacked Normandy, began to be used as a simple tool for mutual communication, and could make light and heavy sounds, and was first used in the 82nd and 101st paratrooper divisions, but it could indeed send Morse code signals.
When the fat man and I heard this, we were a little confused, could it be that there was a dead soul who died under the coffin and wanted to get in touch with us?
I only heard Shirley Yang say to us: "The armband with a sleeve on this arm is the uniform of the United States Air Force during World War II, and there is this kind of double-headed clip, which China does not have, I speculate that there is something dangerous in this jade coffin, and there is a tree hole under the coffin, which is connected to each other and devours the life that passes by." Last night, the ghost of the pilot who was killed by the jade coffin sent a warning signal to us, not wanting us to repeat his mistakes. ”
I said to Shirley Young, "I didn't know what to warn us about last night. Could it be that there is a ghost in this coffin, and you can't do it if you want to harm the three of us? So why didn't we notice anything? ”
As soon as I spoke, I immediately thought that we were probably wearing authentic "touching gold talismans", and we also wanted Guanyin pendants from big gold teeth, these things are all secluded antiquities, but are these things really that useful? I wasn't sure at all. There must be ghosts in these two old trees, those hidden in the holes inside the trees, I don't know what evil spirits are crooked.
In order to get to the bottom of it, we worked together to pull out the lid of the jade coffin. The jade coffin was full of black and purple liquid, except for the different smells, they were all the same as plasma.
We didn't know if the liquid was poisonous or not, and even though we wore gloves, we still didn't dare to touch it with our hands. The fat man used his pubic claws, and I used a pickaxe to reach into the jade coffin and scoop it twice, and in the blood-like solution, the pickaxe hung out the body of an obese old man. There is only a very thin layer of crystals on the body, as thin as cicada wings, "crystals" are very precious, legend has it that when Han Gaozu was in the line, in the golden jade clothes, there was such a layer of crystals, which was similar to the effect of modern plastic wrap, but at that time, there were no chemical additives.
The fat man used a paratrooper knife to cut through the layer of crystals, so that the corpse wrapped in it was completely exposed, only to see that the old man's body was quite well preserved inside, and his face was larger than ordinary people, according to the photo book, he gave birth to a horse face. I saw that the corpse's eyebrows were white, with a hairpin on his head, and his body was naked, as if he had been soaked in the blood-like liquid for too long, and his body was slightly red.
The fat man scolded: "This dead old man is fat, and he doesn't know how to play tricks on his death." Bidita manganese unveiling ankle and becoming fresh slaughter glutinous and bright, so the bell machinery is good and the bell is bad>, and the bad is stunned
Shirley Yang said to me, "There seems to be a lot of things in the solution in the jade coffin, you can take it out and take a look at it first, and then take care of it." ”
I think this old man, who has been dead for more than 2,000 years, is still preserved vividly, and can even be described by the word "fresh", which is really bizarre enough, this thing cannot be thought about, the more I think about it, the more I feel infiltrating, so I am going to use a mountaineering pickaxe to tear out the body of the white-bearded old man, so as to make room to see what else is under his body.
Unexpectedly, the hand was heavy 2, with the strength of my hands with a mountaineering pickaxe, there were 100 catties, and the weight of the corpse of the white-bearded old man far exceeded my expectations.
I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, could it be this naked corpse, and there was something else attached to it?
I pulled out the mountaineering pickaxe from under the armpit of the corpse, and hooked it in the middle of the jade coffin, and actually pulled out a bloody skinless python from the red and black effusion, and the three of them were taken aback when they saw this scene, it turned out that the old man's body below the shoulder, wrapped around a skinned python, the part where the python corpse and the human corpse meet, due to too much time, has been fused together, and it is difficult to separate, no wonder it feels so heavy just now, and the skinless python corpse is covered with countless red meat lines, and the python meat beats a few times every once in a while, It seems that the corpse has just been skinned and is not yet dead, and we hear the knocking sound in the jade coffin, which is likely to be from it.
The muscles and veins on this python are clearly visible, and I don't know what means are used to peel off the python skin, look at the thickness and size of this python, although it is much smaller than the one we saw in the cave of "Shalong Mountain", it is still much larger than the ordinary python.
The fat man pointed to the skinless python, let us see the many red flesh lines growing on the python's corpse, and said: "There are still things growing on this python meat, how can it be like fish and insects, it seems to be connected to the bottom of the coffin, Lao Hu, you dragged it, I will fish for something below." As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and wanted to go to the bottom of the sea to catch the moon.
Seeing this, Shirley Yang hurriedly stopped the fat man, after all, he didn't know the bottom of this dark red effusion, so he couldn't touch it casually, or use a mountaineering pickaxe or a probe claw, and it was safer to salvage it a little bit.
I lifted the fat old man's body up with all my might, and Shirley Yang used a pickaxe and the fat man took a sapper shovel to search the fluid in the jade coffin, constantly hooking out a few items from it. The first thing found was a gold mask, which may have been worn by a shaman or priest during a ritual, and was made of real gold. The eyes, ears, nose and mouth are inlaid with pure green and white jade, and the jade ornaments are all movable, and when used, the wearer of the mask can remove the green and white jade cover (mountain work) from the gold mask. There are dragon horns on the head of the mask, the shape of the mouth is a tiger's mouth, and the ears are fishtails, which looks very ugly and hideous, but what frightens us the most is the ornamentation of this golden mask, a circle is full of swirl shapes, these vortex compositions are simple, and it looks a little like an eyeball, with two or three layers of small circles in the middle of a circle, the outermost layer seems to represent the eyeball, and the inner layers represent the pupil of the eyeball.
Seeing these familiar carvings, I and Shirley Yang Fat three people can't help but be a little excited, it seems that the legend of the king has "Yun Chenzhu" is true, this time there is a real contact, and the heart has a little bottom. Even if it is a life of nine deaths, this trip to Yunnan is not in vain after all, and it is not in vain to eat and drink a lot of hard work.
The second is a dragon and tiger short stick, which is ground with a green stone, similar to the length of the ordinary rolling pin used by the common people, the green stone short stick is slightly with a little arc, one end is the dragon's head, one end is the tiger's head, and the place where the two beasts meet is the grip in the middle. The dragon and tiger form is simple, lacking the agility of the artistic style of the Han Dynasty, nor does it have a sense of reality and vitality, but it exudes a majestic and heavy atmosphere, which seems to be at least an antiquity before the pre-Qin period.
The fat man looked at these utensils, wiped the saliva from the corners of his mouth, wiped these few pieces of Ming utensils fished out of the jade coffin, put them into a deerskin bag that was moisture-proof and air-resistant, and prepared to take them back as trophies.
Shirley Yang was in a hurry, and he took it by force in broad daylight, isn't this equivalent to robbing the tomb? After taking a picture and reading it, you should put it back as soon as possible.
The fat man didn't do anything when he heard it: "Why did you come all the way from Beijing to Yunnan?" Isn't it just for the inverted bucket to find out the device? I finally broke the fast and wanted to put it back again, but there was no door. ”
I also advised Shirley Yang: "What tomb robbery is not tomb robbery, how ugly it is, there is a way to steal the country, and those who steal hooks will be punished." At least the school captain still has the rule of not digging three times when he dies poor, and he does not fall three times when he dies when he is rich, isn't it ten thousand times better than those big thieves who steal the country and the people. Since ancient times, people with lofty ideals have been fighting injustice for the heavens, and these things are placed in the deep mountains and old forests and decay with the years, which is the biggest irresponsibility to the people, but I think that what can only take a bright weapon, and what is the old-fashioned rule that you can't touch gold at dawn, it should also change with the further deepening of reform and opening up."
I took advantage of the fat man's busy loading the utensils, and whispered in Shirley Yang's ear: "I don't dare to make a move on this thing when I go back, so let Xiaopang take it back to play for a few days, and when he has played enough, I will come over to you again, which museum you are willing to donate to whatever you want, this is called Wangmei to quench his thirst, or let the fat man see some sweetness, it is easy to affect morale, and the heaviest and heaviest equipment has to be pointed to him to carry it!" ”
Shirley Yang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I really can't help you, we can say it first, except for the dust beads used to save lives, we must not do anything to touch the gold, you should know, I am here for your good"
I hurriedly pretended to be in love, and sincerely said that I must live up to her ardent expectations and pure teachings, but I thought in my heart: "After I go back, I will leave it until I go back, I dare not touch the bronze, I haven't promised Chairman Mao this jade and gold vessel, what I said to others, anyway, I forgot it when I slept in a night, even if I took 10,000 steps back and said, these things are obviously sacrificial vessels, and it is very likely that they have a direct connection with the dust beads, and they can't be put back anyway, and I can't take care of any rules this time, so as not to regret it when you use it in the future. ”
I was making my wishful thinking, but I saw Shirley Yang find something in the coffin again, and the countless red flesh threads born from the python corpse seemed to have life, shaking slightly from time to time, and these flesh threads were connected to the bottom of the jade coffin.
Unexpectedly, this exquisite jade coffin, the four walls and the top cover are all Tibetan dense jade, and the bottom is actually a piece of "succulent wood" as the bottom, the red meat line in the coffin, through the bottom of the "succulent wood" coffin connected to the inside of the old tree, human corpses, pythons, jade coffins, have all been connected together, can no longer be separated.
If you look down, you will find that the trees under the base of the jade coffin have completely decayed due to lack of nutrients, but they are only covered by parasitic plants, barely supporting the jade coffin above, and there is a bottomless tree hole below, which should be connected with the hole where the fat man fell. These tree holes are cleverly camouflaged by the vines of parasitic plants, these natural camouflages, after being broken, within three days, will quickly breed, cover up the traces of the tree holes, with the "wolf eye" flashlight to shine inward, all kinds of dried corpses of various animals entwined by tree vines, including several human remains.
Shirley Yang seemed to suddenly realize: "It's not good, the skinned python corpse in this jade coffin may be a python fed with human chrysalis, and these two husband and wife old banyan trees have been parasitized by the resentful soul of the human chrysalis in the python corpse, and this tree is a giant python." ”
