Hearing me say this, Wen Qingshan thought for a moment and said, "Shi Yu is also reasonable, it seems that if you want to solve this mystery, the only way to solve this mystery is to open this coffin to take a look." ”

"Maybe it's not a coffin?" I looked left and right, and I really couldn't connect such a stone platform with a coffin.

"Hehe, if it's a coffin, just see if there is a coffin lid!" After Wen Qingshan finished speaking, he immediately bent down and carefully inspected the stone platform.

He soon discovered that there was a gap at the top of the stone platform, which seemed to him to be the lid of the coffin. Without saying a word, he immediately took off his backpack, took out a crowbar from it, and prepared to pry the coffin lid open.

Seeing this, Ouyang Yi hurriedly grabbed Wen Qingshan's arm and stopped: "Mr. Wen, slow down, the purpose of our coming here is to find the evil stone, as for whether this is a coffin and who is buried inside, it has nothing to do with us, and we can't make any extraneous branches." What's more, it must be very heavy to pry open the lid of this stone, and it may not be easy to pry it open. ”

Wen Qingshan smiled slightly, and said, "What if the evil stone we are looking for is hidden in this coffin through the sky?" ”

When Ouyang Yi heard this, he was stunned, he obviously didn't expect this.

He let go of Wen Qingshan's hand and asked, "Mr. Wen thinks it's possible that the evil stone is hidden here?" ”

Wen Qingshan looked around and replied: "Look at this tomb, although it is spacious, it is empty, and it can't hide anything at all, not to mention that according to what you said, the evil stone is almost half a person high, if the evil stone is really hidden in this tomb, then this coffin is probably the most likely place to hide." ”

After listening to Wen Qingshan's explanation, Ouyang Yi pondered for a moment, then turned his head and shouted at Long Yi and the others.

Chen Biao, Long Yi and Weizi immediately walked over.

Long Yi saw Wen Qingshan standing in front of the stone platform with a crowbar in his hand, and asked puzzledly, "Mr. Wen, what are you doing with a crowbar in your hand?" ”

Wen Qingshan stretched out his hand and patted it lightly on the stone platform, and said with a smile: "Hehe, I was about to pry this coffin open!" ”

When Long Yi heard the coffin, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face, his eyes were fixed on the stone platform, and he asked in a suspicious tone, "Mr. Wen, do you think this is a coffin?" ”

Wen Qingshan pointed to the position on the side of the stone platform, and said: "You look at the position of the stone platform, there is a flat gap, which shows that the whole stone platform is divided into two parts, according to my speculation, there is a chance that this is a coffin through the sky, the upper part is the coffin lid, and the lower part is the coffin body." ”

"Coffin?" Long Yi was slightly stunned, turned his head to look at Ouyang Yi, and asked, "Dr. Ouyang, what is the coffin of Tongtian?" "I didn't expect Long Yi to know about the coffin.

Ouyang Yi said: "Mr. Wen said that the ancients paid attention to the round heaven and the place, and the reason why most of the coffins are square is because they can connect with the spiritual energy of the earth, and the round coffin is called the Tongtian coffin because it can receive the spiritual energy of the nine heavens." ”

"Is there a round coffin in this world?" Long Yi was a little surprised.

"I only heard Mr. Wen talk about it today, don't say I've seen it before, I haven't even heard of it."

Listening to Ouyang Yi's tone, he still seemed to have a trace of doubt about Wen Qingshan's "Tongtian Coffin Theory".

Seeing that they didn't believe it, Wen Qingshan smiled slightly and said: "Because the ancients believed that the round coffin was incomprehensible, and the square coffin was more suitable for placing the corpse, this coffin is indeed quite rare, and even most of the ancient books have no relevant records, and it is normal that you have not heard of it." In fact, I also happened to see a coffin more than ten years ago, so I studied it. ”

"And who will be buried in this coffin?"

"Mr. Wen believes that there is a five-clawed dragon and a nine-feathered phoenix carved on it, which is a symbol of the emperor, so it is very likely that the person lying in the coffin is a person with a heart of rebellion."

"What!?" Ryuichi was completely shocked.

Ouyang Yi changed his words again and said, "Of course, it is also possible that there is no person inside, but the evil stone we are looking for." ”

"The Evil Stone is in here?"

As soon as they heard the evil stone, Long Yi and the three of them suddenly came to their senses.

Ouyang Yi said: "It's not sure yet, but Mr. Wen's analysis is indeed reasonable, I think it is necessary to open it and take a look, however, if there is really an evil stone hidden in it, I am afraid that there is some mechanism, and it is also possible that there is no evil stone in it, but there are evil things, in order to deal with emergencies, so I called you all over." ”

"So what do we do now?" I asked Ouyang Yi.

He stared at the stone platform in front of him and said, "The diameter of this stone lid is close to two, nearly half a foot thick, I'm afraid it will weigh hundreds of catties, and if you want to pry it open, you have to work together." In this way, Captain Chen is in charge of guarding, and the others will pry open the lid of this stone together. ”

Long Yi took out a few crowbars from his backpack, and each person gave one to work, and everyone began to work.

The gap between the coffin lid and the coffin body was very obvious, and we easily inserted the sharp end of the crowbar into the gap, but the coffin lid was indeed not ordinarily heavy, and the five of us almost used our strength to feed, and the coffin lid was only pried up a little. Chen Biao, who was originally standing on the side and was in charge of guarding, couldn't stand it anymore, he put away the mercury gun and stepped forward to help.

With great effort, everyone finally pried open the heavy sarcophagus lid. With all the force, the coffin lid was pushed open a gap about a foot wide, Ouyang Yi tilted his neck, looked into the gap, and suddenly his face changed greatly.

"Dr. Ouyang, what's inside?" Long Yi asked, lowering his head and looking inside.

Ouyang Yi raised his head, turned his head to look at Wen Qingshan, and said slowly: "I really let Mr. Wen say yes, this is really a coffin!" Not only was there a person lying inside, but this person was wearing a dragon robe! ”

"Wearing a dragon robe!? No way! This man really thinks of himself as an emperor! I hurriedly looked down into the gap, and by the light on my hat, I saw that there was indeed a person lying inside, and he was really wearing an orange and yellow dragon robe, but because of the angle, I couldn't see the appearance of this person's face.

Everyone was eager to find out the true identity of this person, so they pushed the lid of the coffin open with all their strength.

On second look, this guy was actually wearing a gold mask, covering his entire face, and his whole body was tightly wrapped, and even his hands were wearing silk gloves embroidered with exquisite patterns.

Seeing this, everyone was a little surprised, and I wondered, "Why does this guy still learn from the Egyptian pharaoh to wear a golden mask!" Could it be that he is too ugly to see people! ”

Wen Qingshan cautiously reached over and picked up the mask, everyone looked at it, and couldn't help but be surprised, only under the mask, it turned out to be a head carved from black clay!

"What's going on?"

Ouyang Yi pondered for a moment and said: "In the Qing Dynasty, the death penalty was mostly beheaded, and after some heinous felons were beheaded, their heads would be hung on the city gate for several days. ”

Wen Qingshan nodded and said, "I think it's the same!" This person dares to wear a dragon robe, he must be a rebel, and rebellion is a felony of the Nine Clans, and he will be beheaded......" Before he finished speaking, he suddenly seemed to find something, his face changed slightly, and he hurriedly took off a silk glove on the corpse's hand.

I subconsciously glanced at that hand, and couldn't help but be surprised, that hand was also carved from black clay!

Wen Qingshan said slowly: "This is not a corpse at all, but a clay sculpture!" ”

"Clay sculptures?" Long Yi immediately stepped forward to check it out, nodded at Ouyang Yi, and said, "This is really a clay sculpture!" ”

"What kind of song is this! It's such a strange coffin here, and it's still a clay sculpture inside. "I was wondering, and suddenly I noticed that the wooden sleeper under the head of the clay sculpture seemed to be a wooden box!

I immediately pointed my hand: "Do you look at the pillow under its head, does it look like a wooden box?" ”

Wen Qingshan looked down and said, "It seems to be really a wooden box!" He immediately lifted the clay figure's head up a little and took out the wooden box.

The wooden box is about a foot and a half long, half a foot wide and half a foot high, and is made of dark brown wood, with exquisite patterns carved on it, and the eight corners are covered with gold corners, which is very delicate.

The wooden box was not locked, but Wen Qingshan did not open the wooden box rashly, he turned his head and said to everyone: "Everyone had better take precautions to prevent the wooden box from being hidden." ”

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly put down the glass mask on the helmet. Ryuichi and I took two steps back because the glass mask was damaged.

Wen Qingshan placed the wooden box on the stone platform and carefully opened the wooden box.

There was no hidden weapon or poison gas or anything like that as Wen Qingshan had imagined, and it was very calm, and I poked my head into the wooden box to take a look, only to see a pair of double-scrolled scrolls placed inside.

The scroll is made of yellow brocade silk, and the shaft handle is made of white jade.

Wen Qingshan picked up the scroll from the wooden box, took it in his hand, and said, "This should be a holy decree, and I'm afraid it's still a very important holy decree." ”

"Boss Wen, you haven't even opened it, how do you know?" I asked, puzzled.

Wen Qingshan said with a smile: "Shi Yu, you don't know, this Qing Dynasty holy decree has a lot of exquisiteness, among which the texture of this shaft handle is strictly different according to the different grades of officials: the first product is a jade shaft, the second grade is a black rhinoceros horn shaft, the third grade is a gold shaft, and the fourth and fifth grades are black horn shafts. The materials of the holy decree are often silk brocade fabrics made of fine silk, the pattern is mostly auspicious clouds and cranes, and there are silver dragons flying at both ends of the holy decree as anti-counterfeiting signs. ”
