Chapter 284: Urn Coffin

?“ Eryang, what's wrong with you? I've noticed you sullen since the day, what the hell is going on with you? Yang Lei said, took out a cigarette and lit it.

"Get me one."

"What? You've been quitting for years, so stop smoking. It's hard to quit smoking, and finally you have persevered for so long that you have completely quit, and don't relapse. ”

"Give me one, it's annoying." Yang Lei handed the cigarette he lit to Chen Ziyang, and then lit another one for himself.

"What else can't we say brother, tell me what's going on? Is it because of the jars we dug up during the day? What the hell are those things? I've always wanted to ask but wasn't too embarrassed to ask. ”

Chen Ziyang shook his head and said: "Those things are actually not magical, these jars are urn coffins, that is, coffins that are buttoned up and down with two large urns. Two large urn coffin burial complexes have been found in Xinjiang and Hebei before.

The urn coffin is used most in the Ming Dynasty, the urn coffin of the Ming Dynasty is very large, much larger than this, more than one meter high, the volume is also large, octagonal, the mother and son mouth, round shoulders and abdomen, flat bottom, the coffin of the urn coffin is coated with yellow-brown glaze. The decoration is divided into three layers, each with something different for painting.

The upper layer is generally painted with phoenix birds, musical instruments, calligraphy and paintings, etc.; The middle layer paints three groups of figures, phoenix birds, weeping willows, and green bamboos; The lower layer is painted with Yanglian. The cover is an eight-sided tower-shaped, and in addition to a group of decorated figures, the edged surface is generally painted with patterns such as phoenix birds, flowers, weeping willows, and green bamboos.

The number of these urn coffins we dug out is also very large, and it seems that this is also an urn coffin tomb group. I had never heard of any of them found in Inner Mongolia before, but I guess it was because of these urn coffins buried in the ground that the soil in the gaps between the urn coffins was relatively soft, causing the ground in that place to collapse.

This kind of small urn coffin can not hold adults, usually there are only two uses, one is used to bury babies who died early and children who died young, because they are not yet adults, they do not need to use coffins, and the size of the urn coffin is just right, and the other is used to transfer bones.

The coffin that has been buried is not as good as being still, even if the feng shui of the burial place is very ordinary, there are very few graves to move, if it is forced to move the grave, and the buried person has already decomposed, only bones remain, at this time the urn coffin needs to be used.

When moving the grave, the coffin is usually not moved, because the original coffin is almost rotten, at this time, it is necessary to pick out the remaining bones of the person, put them into the urn coffin, and wait until the new burial place to pour the bones into the coffin, or put the urn coffin directly into the coffin.

In addition, there is a kind of transformation of the urn coffin called the soul bottle, which is used to hold funeral goods. Many things are used when people are alive, and they also want to take them to the underworld to continue to enjoy, which is the reason why the soul bottle is born. The earliest soul bottles were similar to urn coffins, usually filled with grains, and soul bottles were much more in style than urn coffins, with some decorations on them.

Actually, the reason why I'm worried is not because we dug up these urn coffins, I don't know why, since I came here, I always have a feeling of restlessness. It's a strange feeling, like I always think something really bad is going to happen.

We have gone through a lot of dangers together, and even hung by a thread several times, but even when I fell off the broken bridge of the Bohai Palace, thinking that I would definitely die, I didn't feel this way. I'm not telling you a lie, there's something wrong with this place, something very wrong, probably a lot more dangerous than the place we've been before. ”

Yang Lei and Chen Ziyang are always giggling together, and they are not in shape. At this time, it was the first time for Yang Lei to see Chen Ziyang talking to him so solemnly, and Yang Lei knew that Chen Ziyang was definitely not playing tricks.

At this time, the two of them found that Umbrella Shishuai and Ness had already woken up, and were lying on the ground on the side, looking at the two people in sheepskin, listening to the conversation between the two people. Obviously, the conversation between the two people has been listened to by all of them, and the two of them, like Chen Ziyang, are also solemn.

"Eryang, don't think about it so much, aren't we here just looking for those grass crawlers, if we can find it, if we can't find it, we should evacuate quickly, there should be nothing dangerous, let's sleep a little more while it's not dawn, let's find another day tomorrow, and go back at night."

Listening to Yang Lei's words, Chen Ziyang nodded, yes, there is no grave here, and there is no bloody corpse, what are you worried about? Chen Ziyang has never felt this way, as if this is his Jedi in the dark, and it is no wonder that when watching martial arts, there are often old men who tell the protagonist that he can't go anywhere in this life, which may be the reason.

When the sky was slightly bright, all four of them got up. It's not that they don't want to continue to rest, it's too cold to lie down at all, so it's better to get up and move. Thanks to Nice's mosquito repellent, several people were not bitten by mosquitoes that night, and the wolves they feared did not show up.

Ness picked up his bags of bear dung, packed up the sheepskins, and hung them back on horseback. Then a few people tied up their horses and prepared to look for clues to the pubic lice in a different direction. Looking at the seven or eight urn coffins that had been dug up in the distance, several people discussed it and decided that when the matter was over, they would let Nice go to the nearby villages and towns to report it, these things were also cultural relics.

But these things are not good to put like this, although there are few people in this vicinity, but there are occasionally herdsmen or some other tourists who come here, so these urn coffins are still buried, if someone gets rid of them, or accidentally touches them, it is a loss.

Just do it. Everyone returned to the foot of the hill and began to move the coffins one by one to the pit, and then covered the outside with floating soil. This can make Yang Lei angry enough.

"Dig for a while, move it out for a while, move it in after you finish moving, and then bury it again, I say you are idle and have nothing to do, you have to compete with these jars."

It is much more difficult to put the urn coffin into the pit than to carry it out. When lifting it outward, you just need to push it behind to prevent it from falling, and then move it out little by little. However, when it was put inside, the person who received the jar below had to prevent the jar from falling directly and breaking it, and at the same time let the urn coffin move downward, and after only three or four moves, a few people were very tired. So Yang Lei leaned against the side of a jar and rested for a while.

"Rustle, rustle......" A series of rustling sounds came from the jar, making Yang Lei's eyes widen in fright.

"Eryang! Come on! Listen to the sound in this jar! After hearing the strange noise in the jar, Yang Lei was so frightened that he stepped out of the distance, staring at the urn coffin and trembling.

"Are you tired? The contents of the jar have been dead for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years, so how can there be a sound? Did you touch the jar, and the bones in the jar swayed back and forth, you heard it wrong. ”

"Nope! Absolutely nothing! I just rested on it, and I didn't shake it, I heard the sound of fingernails scratching the jar inside, I really didn't lie to you, and I wasn't so tired that I was dizzy, you come and listen. Yang Lei was so frightened that his hair stood up, and he said with a mouthful of crying hatred, seeing that a few people didn't believe it, he was so anxious that he stomped his feet on the side.

Seeing Yang Lei's expression, Chen Ziyang knew that he was not joking. So he crawled out of the pit and slowly approached the jar. I first looked around the front and back of the jar from the outside, and did not find any cracks on the jar, and at the same time, it may be because the age is relatively old, and the two urns that formed the urn coffin before are well combined, and the seams have been solidified by a thick layer of soil, and it seems that the jar is not damaged.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Ziyang put his ear on the urn coffin and stuck it on the urn coffin and listened carefully. But he listened for a long time, but he did not hear any sound coming from inside the jar. So Chen Ziyang raised his head and shook his head at Yang Lei. That meant he didn't hear any strange sounds.

For more than a day, Chen Ziyang has been listless, and Yang Lei knows that he has no intention of playing with himself. It seems that he really didn't hear anything, could it be that he was really tired and hallucinating? So Yang Lei walked over cautiously, still putting his ear on the urn and listening carefully.

In order to completely dispel the doubts in Yang Lei's heart, Chen Ziyang also leaned his ears over, and the two of them faced each other and listened carefully on the outside of the urn coffin. Then Yang Lei roared, suddenly turned back, and ran out more than twenty meters away.

"Did you hear that? Rustling, as if something was scratching the jar inside, you hear me! Did you just hear that? Yang Lei almost cried out these words, it seems that he was not lightly frightened, but in this way, Chen Ziyang couldn't figure it out.

The two of them listened together against the altar just now, but Chen Ziyang didn't hear any sound. But Yang Lei's overreaction proved that he was indeed not lying, which was really strange. One could not hear anything, and the other was scared to death.

When these jars were just dug up yesterday, Chen Ziyang had looked at these jars one by one, and did not find anything strange about them, which is why Chen Ziyang has been restless, but he can be sure that the reason for his restlessness has nothing to do with these jars. But Yang Lei's reaction made his sense of foreboding aggravated.

Umbrella Shishuai and Ness were also frightened by Yang Lei's actions, so the two of them also came over, and they also stuck on the urn coffin and listened carefully, but their reactions were the same as Chen Ziyang's, and they couldn't hear any sound at all. So the three of them looked at Yang Lei like a monster, but Yang Lei didn't say anything and continued to listen.

took out the compass from his body, and Chen Ziyang looked at it carefully. The needle of the compass shook slightly, there was nothing special, there should be nothing evil in the vicinity. Even if there were some strange things in the jar, it was impossible that only Yang Lei could hear the sound in the jar.

"Ziyang, I don't think this kid is joking, he is really scared enough. Why don't we smash this jar open and take a look? If there is really something in it, we can run in time, and if there is nothing, it can also dispel his doubts. Umbrella Shishuai said a compromise solution.

But Chen Ziyang shook his head, and the uneasiness in his heart became heavier and heavier. So he said to Umbrella Shishuai and Nice: "Leave him alone, maybe he is cheating and cheating, and he doesn't want to work, let's not open this kind of urn coffin, if there are really things inside, maybe we will get into trouble, and there will be nothing to do if we bury them." ”

So the three of them sped up, in order to prevent Yang Lei from seeing these jars and get mad again, the three of them soon moved all the remaining stalls back into the big pit, and at the same time used two sapper shovels to fill the floating soil dug around into the big pit.

Yang Lei didn't have the heart to continue to help them find pubic lice, so the three of them asked Yang Lei to lead the horse behind and follow them far away. After changing several locations, the three of them searched the grasslands near the Devil's Howl Slope, but found no clues about pubic lice.

Looking at the hills of the Ghost Howling Slope, Chen Ziyang thought that maybe he had made a mistake in his previous judgment, or these pubic lice were in the hills of the Ghost Howling Slope, not on the nearby grassland. But it doesn't make sense at all, the sheep of the Nice family are infected with pubic lice because they eat the grass of the Ghost Howling Slope, but there is no such thing in the grass in the vicinity, and it seems that the possibility of pubic lice in the hill is not very large.

Because the time was relatively late, and the journey was relatively far, everyone decided to go home for the time being, after all, it was very uncomfortable to sleep in the grassland and at the same time, and at the same time it was frightening, so it was better to go back to the yurt and take a solid rest.

The happiest person at this time is Yang Lei. Although he was listless, he was finally able to stay away from those jars, which made him feel a lot more relieved. Just when a few people passed by the place where the urn coffin was buried, Yang Lei also turned his head to look at the newly turned soil and glared hatefully.

By the time everyone returned to the yurt in Nice, it was already evening. This time, because the three of them were no longer drunk, the three of them were arranged in a yurt. Chen Ziyang was lying there tossing and turning and couldn't fall asleep, just thinking about the reason for his restlessness.

After all, he was tired for two days, and at the same time, he didn't have a good rest the night before, and it didn't take long for Chen Ziyang to fall asleep groggyly, but he didn't sleep well.

In the evening, the sudden feeling of restlessness hit him again strongly. Chen Ziyang sat up with a shudder, and after wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, he suddenly found that Yang Lei beside him was gone.
