Chapter 103: The Iron Box
The sarcophagus that fell from the ceiling was about two meters long and about one meter wide.
When I saw this sarcophagus, my first feeling was two words, heavy.
The sarcophagus is gray-white, and I don't know exactly what kind of stone it is made of, anyway, it doesn't look very high-grade.
There are many incantations densely engraved on the lid of the coffin, without exception, they are all carved out of the silk script, and there are many words that I can recognize, most of which are related to the five elements and the heavenly and terrestrial branches.
What caught our attention the most was not the incantations, but the lone pine carved in the middle of the coffin lid.
"The branches are like dragons, the leaves are like phoenixes, and the roots are like the roots," Hai Dongqing looked at the pine tree, and said thoughtfully: "Not to mention anything else, just this coffin lid can be worth a lot of money, I didn't expect these ancients to carve the pine on the coffin so expressively."
"Can the coffin lid be sold?" I was stunned: "This thing is unlucky, can anyone buy it?" ”
"I don't sell coffins, I sell lids, what are you afraid of?" Hai Dongqing didn't seem to hate me so much at first, and when he explained to me, he didn't mean to be impatient: "As long as I smash some gaps on the side a little, I can say that this is the town tomb stele in the tomb, and the tombstone is engraved with evergreen immortal pine, which can drive away evil spirits and attract wealth, which is so auspicious."
"Profiteers!" Little Buddha scolded.
"I think Brother Hai is quite business-minded." I laughed.
Hai Dongqing seemed to be quite useful to what I said, glanced at me, and nodded thoughtfully: "You are not wrong in what you said." ”
", don't." The little Buddha said with great interest: "Let's open the coffin now!" ”
The blind boss turned his face sideways, silently listening to Kuroko tell him about the current situation and the things carved on the sarcophagus.
After a while, the blind boss hummed, as if he understood what Kuroko meant, and then he took out a stick of incense from his duffel bag and asked Kuroko to help him light it.
"Uncle." The blind boss smiled at the fat uncle: "It's up to you." ”
"Minor problem." Uncle Fat laughed.
The blind boss nodded, took the incense lit by Kuroko, took a few steps forward, and stopped in front of the sarcophagus.
"Today, we have offended a few of our descendants, please forgive me." The blind boss took the incense and bowed three times to the sarcophagus, and said with words in his mouth: "This is also a last resort to disturb your tranquility."
When the blind boss apologized to the people in the coffin, the fat uncle put down his duffel bag, took out a few pieces of bamboo from his pocket, and walked over slowly.
When we look at this situation, we can't help but be a little curious.
Especially for a layman like me, I have never seen such a serious coffin opening ceremony, and I see how pious the blind boss is
"Phew!"
The blind boss spat on the ground suddenly, and scolded and said, "There is really something wrong with this incense, and Lao Zhang of the dog day sold me the processed products again."
"What's wrong?" Hai Dongqing asked suspiciously.
"The incense ash is falling down, and these few times are floating into the mouth." The blind boss said with grinning teeth.
Well.
When I didn't say what I just said.
Bullshit piety.
At this time, the fat uncle had already circled around the sarcophagus, and every few steps, he put a piece of bamboo on the ground.
By the light of the flashlight, the bamboo pieces seemed to have charms painted on them, and the color should be painted with cinnabar, which was much more complicated than the charms I usually use, and sprinkled with a little gold dust on them.
When Uncle Fat walked back, there were already eight pieces of bamboo on the side of the sarcophagus, one in the south, one in the southeast, one in the northwest, and one in the northwest, and the other four were resting in the southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest directions.
"That's it." The fat uncle said, looking for a sunspot to come to the dagger, and said eagerly: "Open the coffin, even if Qin Shi Huang cheats the corpse and starves, he can stop him!" ”
"Aren't you, uncle, if it's the Yin Yin that sleeps inside, can you stop it?" I asked with a smile.
"If you can stop your hunger." The fat uncle said to me with a smile.
I stopped talking, and waited for them to open the coffin.
The blind boss saw that the fat uncle was fully prepared, and he no longer continued to worship with the tribute incense, but simply squatted on the ground and inserted the tribute incense into the gap between the stone bricks.
"Little Buddha, let's go over and carry the coffin lid." Hai Dongqing said, put down the bag he was carrying, and rubbed his shoulders: "Don't drag me back for a while." ”
"I don't like to talk to birdmen like you, damn, just don't hold me back"
Hai Dongqing and Little Buddha still like to quarrel so much, the two of them are fighting one by one, and they walked towards the sarcophagus with a relaxed face.
I have to say that I am very envious of their relaxed performance.
Maybe it's because of the two of them who are professionally matched, so they can be so calm when doing things, and they must be nervous when they put it on me and let me open the coffin.
But that's not all.
Little Buddha walked to the end of the coffin, looked at the coffin lid with a frown, and asked Hai Dongqing: "Are you going to sell this coffin cover?" If I'm really going to buy it, I'll light it up, so I don't break it for you. ”
"I'm just joking." Hai Dongqing looked at the little Buddha helplessly: "Are we still short of this money?" ”
Damn, capitalism kills people, look at this situation, these two grandsons really don't take money as money.
After hearing Hai Dongqing's answer, the little Buddha nodded and said, That's the same.
In the next second, he jerked up his right leg, which was also the only normal one, and kicked sideways against the coffin lid of the sarcophagus.
As his shoes touched the lid of the coffin, we heard a loud bang distinctly
"Fuck" I looked at the coffin lid that was kicked crooked by the little Buddha, and muttered in a cold sweat: "Is this still the fucking human strength?"
Before I could come to my senses, I saw that the part of the coffin lid that was kicked by the little Buddha suddenly cracked more than a dozen conspicuous cracks, and with the sound of stones falling to the ground, the coffin lid was directly shattered.
"It's good now." Little Buddha said happily, walked to the crooked coffin lid, put his two hands under the coffin lid, and slowly pushed it to the side.
Soon, the lid of the coffin at the other end was also crooked, Hai Dongqing walked over and carried the other end, and the two of them lifted the coffin lid out of thin air so easily
If I hadn't seen this scene with my own eyes, I'm afraid I wouldn't have believed that their strength was so great!
"Buddha Buddha" I tentatively asked the little Buddha: "Are your feet okay?" ”
"It's okay." The little Buddha looked at me suspiciously, as if wondering why I would ask such a question.
"Didn't you break a bone just now?" I asked, confused.
Little Buddha grinned, showed a sunny smile, and said two words to me in a low voice.
"Huh."
I swear that if I ever worry about Little Buddha again, I'll be a grandson.
At this time, the little Buddha and Hai Dongqing had already made great efforts, and they were carefully moving the coffin lid to the side.
As they moved to the side, their expressions changed.
Little Buddha and Hai Dongqing did not have the surprise of finding the baby on their faces, but there was a kind of doubt?
After about ten seconds, they estimated that it was too troublesome, so they casually threw the coffin lid to the side, and did not mean to handle it lightly.
With a muffled sound, the coffin lid rolled around on the ground, and then it steadied itself.
At this time, Little Buddha and Hai Dongqing also waved at us and motioned for us to come over.
"Looks like nothing is going on." The fat uncle seemed to be relieved, and said with a smile: "Let's go over and have a look." ”
As soon as we heard Uncle Fat say this, we put down our hearts and walked to the sarcophagus in three steps and two steps.
There was indeed a dead man in the coffin, but it was definitely not the kind of corpse that could deceive the corpse.
The reason is simple.
If you want to cheat the corpse, you must have meat, otherwise it will be difficult for yin qi to gather in the body.
If the bone frame wants to cheat the corpse and pinch people, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky.
From ancient times to the present, there are only a few rare injustices that can be used to this one, so I won't mention this for the time being.
The skeleton was lying flat in the coffin, its mouth wide open, as if it were saying something.
Its hands rested on its abdomen, clutching a rusty iron box
"Baby in here?" I asked curiously.
"I don't know." Little Buddha frowned: "I really haven't seen anyone take an iron box to put a baby." ”
"Indeed." Hai Dongqing nodded, his eyes full of surprise: "I have seen jade boxes and copper boxes, but this kind of iron box"
"You haven't seen it?" I asked.
"It's not like I haven't seen it." The blind boss took over the conversation and said with a wry smile: "In the hands of ancient warlocks, iron boxes were used to hold injustices, not treasures. ”
