Chapter 12: The Coffin Without a Lid
A spirit all over the body, the calf seems to be bitten by something, but there is no follow-up action, my psychological quality is very good, although often startled, but in the dim environment all around, there is only me, this reaction is too normal, I bent down to get in, through the door, I saw a human skull stuck on the leg, the calf stuck in the upper and lower jawbones, just now it was this bite my leg, the flashlight shined on it, the oval stone top, hanging dozens of floating bones, Behind is a butcher's hook deeply hooked the backbone, the bones are a little incomplete, as if they were abused and hung here, the surface is a little oxidized, it can be seen that a long time has passed, in such a sealed hole is still slightly fluttering, there is a vent here, but the head of the dry bone above me is gone, it may be too long to shake, and it just fell off when my leg stretched in, stuck on my leg, you say coincidentally, all dead only the skeleton remains, and you have to scare me, in line with the principle of respecting the dead, I took the skull off the calf, carefully placed it on the ground, the electric light shone around, this is a square stone chamber, on the top of the oval, hung with many iron hooks, at first the flashlight to the place is limited, come in and look, the space is indeed much larger than I imagined, in the middle of the distance is a monolithic boulder, on which is placed a huge coffin, two or three times larger than the average coffin. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
After entering this stone room, there is a downward staircase, about a meter or so, I jumped down directly with my hands, stepped on something that seemed to be a tree branch, looked around, only to find that the bones I saw in the passage just now, just a small thing, the ground in this stone room, a thick layer of human bones, stepped on it and clicked, walked on it in a cold sweat, there was always a feeling of uneasiness, I didn't look down anymore, and kept walking towards the coffin.
This short distance of dozens of meters, I seem to walk for an hour, especially when I know that the bones under my feet are the bones, it is really like walking on thin ice, I feel really uncomfortable, when I walked to the coffin, I used the lamp to shine carefully, and found that the coffin is not lacquer-dyed, but natural black wood, black wood is a kind of wood, the head texture is hard, dense, put in the water will sink. They are generally carved into works of art, the appearance looks the same as painted with black lacquer, dark and shiny, a piece of black wood carved products are hard-won, it is said that a set of black wood carved furniture, worth millions, such a large piece of coffin, it is all made of black wood, and the surface is warm as jade, it looks like a long time, this casually dismantled a coffin, it is worth a lot, it can be seen that the person inside the coffin is definitely not an ordinary person, I circled around the coffin, on the other side of the coffin, there is a stone tablet on the huge stone, the light shines on it, the font is cinnabar red, almost all of them are written in ancient Chinese, I don't understand it, but there are a few big characters engraved in the middle, which almost occupy all the middle parts of the stele, these four words are almost the same as the current way of writing, I know it, it is written.
Live forever.
Live forever? I looked at the tired bones under my feet, the bones hanging from the hook on my head were still shaking, in stark contrast to this luxurious coffin, I don't think this would be a tomb, I don't think this is a tomb, human beings in the long river of history for thousands of years, forward and forward, indomitable, this spirit is unquestionable, but the results achieved are half the effort, the financial and human resources spent are endless, so far there is no result -- human beings have nothing to do about their own longevity, I have read in the history books, immortality is nothing more than two methods, One of the most famous cases of the Inner Dan is that Xu Fu took a thousand boys and girls to Penglai to refine medicine for Qin Shi Huang, and the result is gone, the most famous of the Outer Danshu is the more popular golden jade clothes in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the jade clothes are also called "jade box", "jade sheng", the Han Dynasty emperors and senior nobles often used funeral clothes when they died, and the appearance wraps the people who wear them. The Han Dynasty people believed that jade was the "mountain elite", and the gold and jade were placed in the nine orifices of the people, and the essence of the people would not leak out, so that the bones could not be corrupted, and the regeneration of the afterlife could be sold, so the jade used for funerals occupied an important position in the Han jade, mostly made of gold wire and thin jade pieces, I had seen an imitation of the golden raincoat in the museum in Zhengzhou, a huge glass was contained inside, although it was an imitation, but it looked eerie, and there was a kind of immortality that was not recorded in the history books.
It is still in the Eastern Han Dynasty when Taoism became popular, continue life, compared to the first two methods of immortality, at most it consumes some human wealth, and this is very damaging to yin morality, with the life of others, continue my yang life, this kind of record in history is very rare, it is said that at that time Taoism arose, each family in order to obtain the favor of the court boasted of refining the immortal medicine, the emperor after eating it told the emperor that you are not dead, no one can see whether it is effective in a short period of time, unless the emperor eats it and dies, this point of back, receive the reward and play disappear, claimed to be an immortal who had ascended, but in fact, he took the money that he couldn't spend in his life to go back to the countryside to live a small life, leaving only a legend for the rivers and lakes.
Rich and powerful emperors and nobles, what do they lack? Of course, they want to live forever, so at that time, there were countless liars who disguised themselves as Taoist priests, and even developed into various schools, which one is big, and the nobles will find which one specializes in refining medicine, for these "medicines" rich people will never be stingy, and finally all the nobles' refining drugs have been contracted by several big factions, and the general small Taoist sects can only deceive ordinary people, which can not deceive a few money, at this time there is a new rise of Taoism, in order to distinguish it from other Taoism, put forward a new concept, The life span of all people in the world is limited, if you want to live long, you have to take someone else's life to renew it, if a person dies there is a rhetoric, as long as he continues his life, after a period of time he will wake up again, because after death to wake up again needs to be restarted, so it is best to start to renew life when you are alive, the nobles and princes listened, it makes sense, so they have asked this Taoism to guide, and then this genre is the same for a while, and even suppressed the inner Dan flow, and the outer Dan flow, which shows the importance of innovation, Their exact method is unknown, but the necessary point is to kill people, kill many, many people, and the more people they kill, the longer they live.
Later, the emperor of later generations thought it was too absurd, and ordered the slaughter of the members of this faction, and since then the stream of life has disappeared from the world.
The person in the coffin is likely to be used to continue life, although some people died, but he wanted more people to die with him, a hundred years later, it is not the same as a white bone, I stepped on the stone tablet, climbed to the huge stone, the coffin is one person high, I stand on the stone and the coffin parallel, but I can't see the inside at all, I don't have the habit of tomb robbers lifting the coffin lid, and I can't lift it when it's so big, I stretch out my hand to touch it.
The hand shook twice in the air, it was empty, and there was no lid on it......
