"The material of the main coffin has been analyzed?"

"Yes, the whole coffin belongs to camphor wood."

"Hey, I remember that Jiangxi is rich in camphor trees, right, but in the Western Han Dynasty, camphor wood was used to make coffins, which was only used in the tombs of high-ranking nobles."

"To build such a main coffin more than three meters long, it is very rare to use a large camphor wood."

Kong Jianwen and Wen Yuangen were communicating in a whisper.

After making the decision to open the coffin cover, everyone stood next to the main coffin and waited for the crane.

The main coffin is 3.7 meters long and 1.7 meters wide, and the coffin cover is also so large.

Such a huge coffin cover is obviously not open by manpower.

Therefore, although it was decided to open the coffin cover, it would have to wait for the mechanical car to arrive, and then use a crane to lift the coffin cover.

During this free period of waiting, everyone also looked around the main coffin.

This main coffin, which was originally supposed to be a lacquered wooden coffin, was painted with exquisite lacquer paintings on the body of the coffin.

But because of the long-term soaking in water, many of the paint layers on the main coffin have fallen off, leaving only the black coffin.

However, the lid on the top of the main coffin is orange-red.

This is naturally not the color of the wood itself.

Presumably, this should be a curtain board.

That is to say, originally on the main coffin, it should have been covered with a very large piece of barren curtains, but with the passage of time, these barren curtains and the coffin cover have been integrated.

You must know that the so-called barren curtain is actually a coffin cover, and this thing is made of silk fabric.

Silk fabrics, the main component of which is protein, to be more accurate, is the protein fiber composed of eighteen amino acids in silk.

Protein fibers, in long-term contact with wood, are easy to "stick" together.

Over time, the coffin cover made of camphor wood became orange.

In fact, this orange color should be the original color of camphor wood, and then fused with the red barren curtain.

Under normal circumstances, the main coffin is covered with a curtain roof, and because the curtain has collapsed, there may be traces of weaving and textiles around it.

Therefore, the curtain must be uncovered before the coffin cover plate under the curtain can be disposed of.

Chen Han and Zhuang Yunpeng were lying around the main coffin, and they were unveiling the curtain.

It's a hassle to say, but it's also a hassle to do.

The barren curtain, which is completely bonded to the coffin cover, is obviously impossible to remove if you want to rely on brute force.

In other words, if it is hard to uncover, it will only break the curtain into small pieces, and then continue to stick to the coffin cover.

Fortunately, with the strong assistance of the Jingzhou Cultural Protection Center, they have a large number of chemicals in their hands.

Some chemicals are specially used to separate silk fabrics.

After using these chemicals, it is much easier to remove the curtains.

However, although the difficulty of the work has been reduced, it still took a whole morning of work for everyone to remove the barren curtain, revealing the coffin cover below.

And the two specially transferred cranes have been waiting next to them for a long time.

"Then pry open the coffin cover?" Chen Han looked at Kong Jianwen with some impatience.

Kong Jianwen didn't say anything, just nodded calmly.

Of course, the coffin cover is not simply covered on the main coffin, but is generally nailed to the main coffin.

Therefore, if you want to lift the coffin cover, you must first separate the cover from the main coffin.

To put it simply, you have to pry open the main coffin first!

It's not a hard job, on the contrary, it's a job that needs to be done gently.

Because although these camphor wood are very hard wood, after all, they have been soaked in the ground for more than 2,000 years, and no matter how strong the wood is, it will become very fragile.

Although it is not as fragile as tofu dregs.

However, if you directly pry open the coffin cover, it is more likely that the coffin cover is not pried open, but the position of the pry is rotten.

Therefore, this work must be done meticulously, and it must be strengthened little by little.

In this regard, Zhuang Yunpeng is professional.

His kung fu is really good.

Under Chen Han's onlookers, Zhuang Yunpeng took a steel bar and carefully inserted it into the gap between the coffin cover and the main coffin, and little by little, he opened a gap in one corner.

That's when something dramatic happened.

Through this small gap, Chen Han couldn't help but peek inside.

As a result, when he entered the line of sight with the light, what he saw was a golden splendor!

The inside of the coffin is relatively clean, and there is not as much silt as Chen Han imagined.

Some objects suspected of being gold and jade are lying in the coffin very conspicuously, and some of the gold can actually reflect the golden light under the illumination of the light entering!

"Damn, there are so many gold and jade!" Chen Han shouted without concealment.

Kong Jianwen and Wen Yuangen also hurriedly walked over, bent down and looked through the gap with him.

Completely ignoring Zhuang Yunpeng next to him, in order to support this gap, his face turned red.

"The situation inside the coffin is better than expected, and it hasn't been affected by much from the outside world!"

"It looks like the sealing of this main coffin is very good! A large number of precious cultural relics such as the gold and jade period that have been preserved and are relatively intact may be unearthed! ”

"Do you want to keep driving? Or simply transfer the entire main coffin to the laboratory and open it again? ”

"Nope."

Kong Jianwen shook his head: "This main coffin is estimated to weigh a few times." ”

"It's too difficult to move it to the lab in its entirety."

"If you want to lift it as a whole, I'm afraid the bottom of the coffin can't support such a weight."

"The coffin can only be opened on the spot."

The reason why it was decided to open the coffin on the spot was originally a last resort.

According to the length and width of this coffin, and the assumption that it is stuffed with things, after a simple estimate, it can be concluded that the lightest estimate of this main coffin is two or three tons.

With such a large weight, if it is a new coffin, it may be able to be lifted.

But a coffin that has been soaked in water for thousands of years more than 2,000 years cannot be lifted and transported away.

If you really want to hang it, it may only shatter the entire main coffin, and the consequences will be very serious!

"Hey, let's open the coffin cover first."

Wen Yuangen also came back to his senses, ashamed of his bold idea.

He waved his hand, and Zhuang Yunpeng immediately continued to pry the coffin cover.

Start with the four corners and then work your way up to the middle of the left and right ends.

After all six fulcrums are pried open, it can be basically determined that the coffin cover and the main coffin are separated.

Zhuang Yunpeng did a great job, and the coffin cover did not undergo any deformation or fracture during the whole process.

After this step, the crane that has been waiting next to it for a long time, the variety show can start working.

With the low friction sound between the track and the steel bar, the huge main coffin cover was firmly extracted by the steel bar as thick as a little thumb by the hanger, like an "arm".

With the lifting of the coffin cover, the situation in the main coffin was finally unreservedly displayed in front of everyone.

"! It's a lot of gold again! ”
