Chapter 229: Dead End

Bai Yi closed the note: "I'm a little curious now, isn't this note handed down by your eldest brother Xiao?" How could he put something so important in your hands? “

"This ......" The thin monkey really couldn't make it up, so he could only raise his hand and surrender: "I am what I call Brother Xiao in my own mouth, this is what happened to my ancestors, I admit it!" “

"Real name?" Bai Yi glanced at him. ()

"Xiao Long." After the thin monkey finished speaking, he was also a little embarrassed, how did this dragon and the thin monkey get connected?

The thin monkey's mouth is quite able to make up, but unfortunately now it is all exposed, Bai Yi is now focusing on the mouth and hands of the corpse in the coffin, this thin monkey has done a good thing for them, breaking the mechanism of the arrow in the mouth, these hands have passed the weight of the boulder just now, and when the upper body bounced up, it also loosened a little, Tang Sancheng looked over curiously: "It seems to be pinching two round balls, how can it be like those old men and old ladies are pinching in their hands?" “

Tang Sanchengcheng is talking about the health ball played by some old men and old ladies in Beijing now, but this is absolutely impossible, because the health ball began in Baoding, also known as Baoding iron ball, put it in the palm of the hand to play, it can not only play a role in the circulation of the whole body qi and blood, activity of muscles and bones, in order to achieve the health care purpose of reconciling yin and yang, originated in the Ming Dynasty four hundred years ago, the material can also be jade. ()

What appeared in the Ming Dynasty four hundred years ago could not appear in the tomb at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Bai Yi naturally vetoed this statement, what is the result, only to break his hand, with the lesson just now, Bai Yi was extra careful this time, he took out a special iron claw from his backpack, this is Liu Zhixi's masterpiece, with this, you can pull the fingers of the corpse without touching the corpse, according to Liu Zhixi, this is the inspiration for him to watch others cook casserole, in order to prevent hot hands, Therefore, the casserole was picked up with a special tong, and as soon as it was improved, it became the current "iron claw".

Bai Yi used the claw to pick up the hand bone, and the thing inside was exposed, it was a ball, it was not wrong, but it was not a baojian ball, it was two jade cicadas, and then the mouth of the corpse was broken, as expected, it was also a jade cicada.

Since the Han Dynasty, the phenomenon of the feathering of the cicada has been compared to the fact that adults can be reborn, so the jade cicada is put into the mouth of the deceased to mean "containing the cicada", which means that the spirit is immortal, reborn and resurrected, and the jade cicada is naturally made of jade, so the jade cicada is not only the ornament of the living, but also the burial jade of the dead. ()

Originally, this jade cicada is generally divided into three types, the first is the crown cicada, which is used for hat ornaments and has no eyes; the second is the cicada, which has a pair of piercing eyes at the top; The third type is the cicada, which presses the tongue in the mouth of the deceased, and the knife technique is simple, without piercing the eyes.

What this corpse holds in its mouth is the third kind of jade cicada, without piercing eyes, and the three jade cicadas are alive and now leaping into Bai Yi's palm.

"Han Eight Knife Jade Cicada." Bai Yi was secretly complacent, these three jade cicadas were all good goods.

"What is the Han Eight Knife?" Tang Sancheng immediately asked.

Bai Yi said: "Han Eight Knife is a kind of craft, refers to the jade cicada in this kind of craft is the most masterpiece, so the value is the highest, Han Eight Knife jade cicadas are flat shapes, the skin is covered with red, the color is mottled and natural, the carving is powerful, the shape is beautiful, if it is placed in the antique market, it must be a hot item." “

"Bai Yi, there seems to be something under this corpse." Tang Sancheng's eyes were sharp, and he saw something flickering under the corpse's waist.

The flickering thing is reflected after coming into contact with the light, Bai Yi's brain turned fast, and immediately thought that it might be a bronze mirror, the bronze mirror of the Eastern Han Dynasty is exquisitely crafted, and the ancients have always believed that the mirror can drive away evil spirits, and the ancient mirror is often the thing used by the tomb owner during his lifetime, and it is reasonable to take the things used in his life to accompany the burial. ()

Lei Zi carefully flipped over the corpse, and Bai Yi took out the shiny thing, and sure enough, it was a bronze mirror, "Four-breasted Divine Beast Mirror." Bai Yi blurted out: "Green Dragon, White Tiger, Jiaolong and Galloping Horse." “

"Really." Tang Sancheng leaned over to look.

This bronze mirror is divided into four areas, each area has a divine beast decoration, these four divine beasts have different shapes, the green dragon looks back and swings its tail, the double horns are slender, the mane roots can be distinguished, the white tiger is open teeth and claws, head forward, there seems to be a wing on the side, very powerful, the dragon is strutting, the head is a horn, the dragon scales can be counted, the war horse is galloping, looking back neighing, carrying the saddle, very handsome.

This bronze mirror has been around for so many years, it is covered with ancient rust, so the bright light just now is not too obvious, besides, the so-called mirror in ancient times, is not as clear as the modern glass mirror, but the carving process is very delicate and interesting, Bai Yi saw this bronze mirror, the face is very happy, this ancient mirror with the theme of beasts, people, and scenery is very popular in the Eastern Han Dynasty, this bronze mirror can be said to be the most crafted in the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The thin monkey saw that Bai Yi and they had three jade cicadas in an instant, and now they got this bronze mirror, they were angry and annoyed in their hearts, and they also gave up their handwritings, and the things in the secret room didn't want to expect to get a piece of the pie, the thin monkey's bleak face betrayed his mood, Bai Yi said: "I don't need to be depressed, the things in the secret room, it depends on your performance, as long as you don't play any scheming, you still have a point." “

"You mean really?" Skinny Monkey really didn't expect it.

"Hmph." Bai Yi said coldly: "Believe it or not." “

"Bai Yi, you see this person is still wearing an imperial robe." Lei Zi approached, and took a flashlight to carefully shine on the blurry fabric, which hung loosely on the corpse, looking very dilapidated, but the pattern on it was vaguely a dragon, and the color was earthy yellow.

"The Qin Dynasty was Shuide Shang Black and wore a black dragon robe, the Han Dynasty was Tude Shang Huang and wore a yellow dragon robe, and the Song Dynasty admired Fire Virtue and wore a red dragon robe." Bai Yi said: "This one, strictly speaking, is not a dragon robe, it is a bit nondescript, but it seems to be the result of improvements on the dragon robe of the Eastern Han Dynasty, to say that there is probably only one person in the Yellow Turban Army who can wear this improved dragon robe and be buried." “

"It's Zhang Jiao." The thin monkey seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, and suddenly became excited: "This tomb was brought by General Rengong to repair it, and this Rengong General is Zhang Jiao's younger brother." “

"If you look at it from the perspective of time, there is such a possibility, Zhang Jiao died of illness, not long after he died, his two younger brothers Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang were killed one after another because of the defeat." Bai Yi said: "Then there is Zhang Jiao's uprising, if you don't want to be the king, that's fake, you didn't get your wish before you died, if you let your brother help you get what you want after death, it is also possible, he intends to overthrow the Eastern Han Dynasty, if you directly wear the yellow robe of the Eastern Han Dynasty and bury it, wouldn't it slap yourself?" Therefore, it has been improved, and it makes sense to infer it in this way. “

"Hmm." When Lei Zi looked at Bai Yi, his eyes were full of admiration: "Your analysis is really right, but this mercury pool is a little redundant, and there is nothing particularly valuable in this pottery coffin. If you want me to say, this Zhang Jiao is the same virtue as Xiao Ning, he is afraid of death, he is afraid of rotting and being ruined, so he thought of such a bad idea. “

Lei Zi said it, but by the way, Xiao Ning was involved, and Xiao Ning immediately frowned together: "Lei Zi! “

"I was wrong." Lei Zi recognized his mistake and recognized it happily, who made Tang Sancheng already blow his beard and stare at him?

That's all there is to it here, Bai Yi took the bronze mirror in his hand, and was about to put it on, when he saw the inscription engraved on the reverse side of the bronze mirror...... The rule of heaven, the rule of the earth, the rule of man.

He thought about it, it seems that this corpse is Zhang Jiao's, Zhang Jiao according to the "Taiping Sutra" on the "rule of heaven, there is the rule of the earth, there is the rule of man, the three extremes, and then the rule of all things", the self-proclaimed general of Tiangong.
