Chapter 2034: Water Coffin
Before I could get ready, he kicked me in the back, and there was boiling hot water inside!
The highest temperature of the hot springs was above 50 degrees, and my hands turned white, I thought I would be scalded into pigskin, but I didn't expect it to be the white dress on my body, and the white dress turned into a white snake tail.
Snakes are ectotherms whose body temperature changes with air temperature, and the optimal temperature for snake activity is about 20 to 30 degrees, and the growth rate of snakes in this suitable range also rises in a straight line with the rise of temperature.
When I entered the spring, I saw a bottomless spring, and I didn't know what was under the spring, but since he asked me to see it myself, it must have been rewarding.
Bang la blah
I swung the snake's tail, I used to use the power of the white to control the snake's tail to move freely, and I saw a lot of small bubbles bubbling down the water, so I bypassed them one by one.
The deeper I got, the clearer I can see, there are many water coffins piled up at the bottom of the bottom.
In the ancient tomb, there is a kind of coffin called the water coffin, which is not much different from the great coffin from the outside, but the center of its tenth link is that everything outside the coffin is liquid.
Some put pure water on the outside, while others put mercury on the outside.
On the surface of the coffin, you can clearly see that there are many small fish swimming around the corpse, and you can't see the appearance of the corpse, only the general outline.
But it is common sense that it is impossible for a fish to survive in a closed coffin for a long time, so this coffin must be leaking.
But if this is the case, the body cannot be preserved well, I am afraid that even the bones are difficult, the people present are very curious, but also very afraid, at this time the crowd has been divided into two factions, led by some old people, resolutely no longer digging, and to cover the coffin with mud, for fear of affecting the family.
So I didn't dare to touch it, just by looking at the font on the coffin, and the numbers on it, I knew the time of death.
It is a water coffin left thousands of years ago, and this flash is facing Leifeng Pagoda, what is the meaning?
One, two, three...... Thirty-eight, thirty-nine, forty.
Forty coffins, of different sizes and lengths.
The youngest is a small coffin as big as a five-year-old, and the longest is an adult, probably because of the high temperature of the hot spring, there is no moss on it.
I looked at the youngest one, and there were eighteen women and twenty-two men.
There is a coffin that is particularly clear, the body has not been corroded, the facial features are clearly visible, the nose bridge of the side face is exquisite, the black method is draped over the shoulders, wearing a thousand-year-old robe, a large-mouthed wide-sleeved water wave blue robe, the lower skirt is folded, and a pair of white boots are still embroidered, snake-like patterns.
On the lid of the coffin, the name of the deceased, Xu Xian, was written.
"Ancestors!"
Grunt
This is the first time I have seen Xu Xian's appearance, his face is like the moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, his eyebrows are like willows, his body is like a jade tree, his nose is high, his long eyelashes cast a thick shadow under his eyes, the contours of his side face are as sharp and angular as a knife, and his red lips are as thick as a dizzying smile.
Such a person, with his eyes tightly closed, lay there motionless, and slept comfortably.
All the coffins have a certain amount of decay, but he in this coffin still maintains the appearance of thousands of years ago.
I saw that he was spitting bubbles in his mouth, as if he was holding something in his mouth.
So, I made the bold decision to pry open the coffin.
Swimming ashore, I saw Qing Qian, staring at me angrily, as if I had done something wrong.
"Fascinated by it? You think he's handsome, too! ”
It turned out that he was jealous.
"Handsome is real, I want to say that I am so beautiful, it turns out that I rely on the genes of my ancestors, I just want to see what he has in his mouth."
"What's in his mouth?"
Qing Qian, raised his eyebrows and glanced at me, made a noise, turned into a green snake, grabbed my arm, and went into the water again.
I swam and swam twice, and when I swam to the bottom of the water, he saw forty coffins under the water, and he didn't feel new at all, so he naturally swam to Xu Xian's coffin, and after turning around, he stared at the bubbles that came out of Xu Xian's mouth with wide eyes.
"Sure enough, there's something!"
He swung his tail and slammed it into the coffin, but the coffin was useless because of the resistance of the water, so I grunted and suggested that he take the coffin ashore, but he sprayed it.
It is said that the mucus on the coffin is mercury, and the concentration is so deep that it cannot be dissolved at high temperatures, and the toxins may be high.
It turned out that he just wanted to borrow the resistance of water to bounce the coffin.
I saw that he kept swinging his tail and the other coffins were lifted a little, but this one was motionless, so I looked at my white tail.
also followed the clang, clang, swinging the snake's tail.
The resistance of the two snake tails was greater than one, and the hot spring was turned upside down by the two.
Bang, bang, bang, bang on the rocky cliffs.
In the end, under the resistance, all the coffin lids were lifted, and Xu Xian's was also lifted.
I looked at Qingqian, reached out and pinched Xu Xian's chin, the movement was not gentle at all, clasped his lips and teeth, and took out a fiery red bead.
This fiery red bead, and there is a small flame in it, is burning.
"This hot spring is because of this fire bead, if you take it away, the corpses here will be damaged, if you don't take it away, the white obsession will still not disperse."
He handed me the fiery beads and asked me to make a decision.
I glanced at Xu Xian in the coffin, and then looked at the graves of other ancestors, and I finally knew why their coffins couldn't be buried with the village and choose water burial.
Water burial is because when you are alive, you are guilty and need to be washed by the river god, so you are buried in water.
For me, these don't mean anything, because a thousand years have passed, but as a descendant of the Xu family, I want to take away the corpses of my ancestors.
So I turned around and looked at Qing Qian, "I want to ask you to take the bodies of my ancestors out of here, I think they have a decent way to bury them." ”
Qing Qian didn't expect that I would be so decisive, looking at me with different eyes, and then nodded, the snake tail rolled up two, and with three corpses in its mouth, they swam ashore one after another.
When all the bodies were cleaned up, Xu Xian's was left behind, and he was motionless in the water.
"What, not happy?"
"Other people's can, his, I don't want to carry it, I wish the corpse was soaked and fed to the fish."
"You're so stingy!"
Since he didn't carry it, I had to reach out and grab Xu Xian's hands, and this time, I saw the jade bracelet he was wearing, which was exactly the same as the one I had brought before, the love object between him and Bai Qi.
I don't want to forget her when he dies, so I grabbed her very carefully, fearing that the skeleton would fall apart and be carried ashore.
After the fire beads followed me ashore, the water vapor in the cave gradually disappeared, and the corpses on the shore gradually dried up, leaving only the skeleton, and Xu Xian's was the same.
