Chapter 32: The Jade Man
The two sarcophagi were still in different directions, the lid of the coffin had been lifted fifty years ago, there was nothing inside, Bai Yi was shining around with a flashlight, there was no new discovery, Tang Sancheng also had a heavy face, seeing the empty sarcophagus on the left, Tang Sancheng suddenly thought of something: "Do you remember...... Ever had a scent? β
Bai Yi pondered for a while: "If I remember correctly, when I opened the sarcophagus, I only smelled a foul smell, but I clearly smelled a fragrance." οΌοΌβ
"Yes, only the two of us smelled it, you said this fragrance, could it be ......" Tang Sancheng's conjecture became more and more bold: "The reason for our ageless body?" Forcefully did not smell, so he died of normal old age. β
Bai Yi became excited: "So, if we find the source of the fragrance, we can crack the secret on our body!" Before his words fell, Tang Sancheng had already walked towards the sarcophagus, and there was a momentum of not giving up until the goal was reached, which was rare in Tang Sancheng......
Tang Sancheng's hand touched into the sarcophagus again after fifty years, Bai Yi's light immediately shone in, this was a very careful search, Tang Sancheng's acumen did not help him, finally, he took out his hand in disappointment, looked at Bai Yi, and shook his head dejectedly: "No ......"
Bai Yi stuffed the lamp into Tang Sancheng's hand: "You shine, I'll come!" β
Tang Sancheng smiled: "If I can't find it, you can't find it." ()" Although he said that, he still honestly lit the lamp for Bai Yi, as he said, Bai Yi was also in vain: "Strange, there is no trace left?" β
"Did that Fu Yu of yours say that there is a fragrant Gu?" Tang Sancheng asked: "Isn't Gu poison colorless and tasteless...... Speaking of this, Tang Sancheng himself understood: "Since it is colorless and tasteless, then there is no aroma to talk about." β
Bai Yi muttered, "Isn't it Gu? β
A strong sense of loss hit his heart, Bai Yi squatted on the ground dejectedly, thinking that when he returned to the tomb, as long as he found the source, he would be able to solve the mystery on his body, who knew that he was still standing at the origin and did not take a step forward, Tang Sancheng patted Bai Yi's shoulder: "There must be a cause and an effect, one day, we can find it, don't be discouraged." β
"Why do you have such confidence!" Bai Yi was depressed, he didn't understand Tang Sancheng's love at all, he stretched out his hand and pushed Tang Sancheng fiercely: "Get away!" β
Tang Sancheng was already hungry, and his body was originally thin, this push made Tang Sancheng fall straight to the sarcophagus, he clearly smelled the unique smell of the stone in the sarcophagus, a very solid taste, with a hint of fishy smell of stones, and maybe a thousand-year-old smell of dust, Tang Sancheng's eyes were attracted by the bottom of the sarcophagus, and then quickly looked at another sarcophagus: "Strange!" β
"What?" Bai Yi said angrily.
"The two sarcophagi were supposed to be one and the same." Tang Sancheng scratched his head: "Or this sarcophagus has been split into two." He pointed to the bottom of the sarcophagus: "Look, there are a lot of stone chips here, and the other one, too, has a lot of stone chips under the sarcophagus, and the patterns on these two sarcophagi seem to be complete when put together." β
The two sarcophagi have ornaments on them, dragons without horns, with long beards, and the beards and hairs on their bodies are intertwined with each other, revealing the fangs in their mouths, like a group of monsters devouring each other, the ornaments on the sarcophagus have been seen by the two of them a long time ago, but today, Tang Sancheng has made a different discovery!
"You see, the dragon on this sarcophagus, the hair at the corners of the mouth looks like one is missing, and the other is on the dragon on another sarcophagus! What does this mean? Tang Sancheng scratched his head again: "Ah, I can't think of it, are these two sarcophagi originally a whole body?" Why is it a whole body? β
Bai Yi was silent, suddenly took out a small object from his bag, aimed at the two sarcophagi respectively, pressed the shutter, and a light flashed, Tang Sancheng recognized it: "This is a camera?" How can there be such a small camera? β
"Instead of guessing here, you should take a picture of the color camera brought back from abroad and study it well. Bai Yi was finally inspired by Tang Sancheng's discovery, Bai Yi did not let go of any detail, and when the shooting was finally completed, he explained to Tang Sancheng: "What happened here, what I saw, except for those jewels, must not be revealed to others, except for ...... The Seven Evils. β
"Got it." Tang Sancheng was very happy that Bai Yi trusted the Seven Evils as much as he did, thinking that the Seven Evils and Xiao Ning were still waiting below, he was a little anxious: "Let's get out of here quickly." β
Tang Sancheng and Bai Yi followed the original path back, and came to the stone room where the formation was cast, and the top was a thief hole dug out, at this time, they could still see the moon, the moonlight was sprinkled down, and it was shining on the Seven Evils and Xiao Ning, the two of them looked very strange under the moonlight, Xiao Ning had regained consciousness, and was being held down by the Seven Evils, so embarrassed.
"A bunch of bastards! What kind of hero is a sneak attack from behind! Xiao Ning struggled desperately: "Tang Sancheng, you bastard!" β
Tang Sancheng's heart was weak for a while, and he was speechless, but Bai Yi was soft and hard: "Hmph, you are too naΓ―ve, you don't really think that I will take you to the grave obediently, right?" You're not my partner. β
"You ......" Xiao Ning broke free of the Seven Evils, in fact, the Seven Evils let go of their hands, holding Xiao Ning just now was afraid that she would ruin Tang Sancheng and Bai Yi's affairs, and now that the two of them are back, there is no need to subdue Xiao Ning.
Xiao Ning broke free and jumped in front of Tang Sancheng: "Big liar! The saliva sprayed directly onto Tang Sancheng's face, and Tang Sancheng wiped it with his sleeve: "Saliva ah!" β
This is too leisurely, Xiao Ning was stunned: "What did you say?" β
"I said it was saliva." Tang Sancheng had already finished wiping the saliva on his face: "Don't be angry. β
"You ......" This kind of reaction Xiao Ning had never encountered, she was a little at a loss, and it took a long time before she scolded: "You stupid!" β
"I was an idiot." Tang Sancheng actually laughed, his reaction made Bai Yi completely speechless, and interrupted him: "Enough, let's go up and talk about it, the brothers are still waiting!" β
Bai Yi put his fingers on the side of his mouth, blew out a long whistle, and immediately, the rope on it was put down, and the four of them were pulled up in turn, Bai Yi was the last, and when he climbed out, Wu Tong and others immediately surrounded him, looking at him with expectant eyes, Bai Yi naturally knew what it was for, he threw the bag to the ground: "Look at it, the fruit of victory!" β
Wu Tong and the others raised their hands and cheered, and Xiao Qi couldn't wait to untie the bag and reveal the contents inside...... First of all, there is a pair of jade people, a man and a woman, the jade body is green, there are rust and white Qin on it, the body is flat, and the section is rectangular.
The upper quarter of the female jade figure is a melon seed-shaped head of the human figure, the lower three-quarters part is a rectangular body, the front face is decorated with thin lines meniscus-style eyebrows, olive-shaped order, trapezoidal nose, rectangular small mouth of the human face, there is an upper arc between the shoulders to show the neck, and the waist is a horizontal line to show the belt ornament, and the rest is light and plain.
The male jade is slightly taller and wider than the female jade, and the jade material is dark green with white erosion locally. The body is flattened, and the upper part is human-head-shaped; The lower part is rectangular in shape. The eyebrows, eyes, mouth and whiskers are engraved with yin lines, and the waist is tied with a checkered belt, and he wears a long coat in an upright state.
"This pair of jade ......" Bai Yi called Wu Tong: "Wu Tong, the lights are brighter." β
Wu Tong turned on the flashlight to the highest setting, the light was the strongest, and Bai Yi nodded: "It's okay." He held up the pair of jade figures and examined them carefully: "It's very similar...... The appearance of terracotta warriors. β
"Terracotta?" Tang Sancheng was a little puzzled.
"You have been studying feng shui on the mountain for a long time, you may not know that in 1974, in Shaanxi, the terracotta warriors and horses of Qin Shi Huang were found, those are terracotta figurines that were buried in place of the living, which is very characteristic of the era of the Qin Dynasty, and the images of these two jade people are very close to those servants." Bai Yi said.
