Uncle Su was obviously particularly interested in these murals. He took a flashlight and looked at them carefully. It seemed that he wanted to study the story behind each character.
"The archaeological value of tombs with murals like this is very high. The murals can vividly restore ancient humanistic customs, etc., which is much more intuitive than those of gold, silver and jade."
Uncle Su sighed while watching.
I smiled and said, "Uncle, I think it's time for you to join the archaeological team. The archaeological team usually studies historical value. You should be able to make more use of it by following them."
Uncle Su said that the archaeological team cannot excavate various tombs as they wish, but tomb robbers can.
I said that was true, and then I also started to look at these murals, but there were too many people and they were so densely packed that I felt dazzled when I saw the back. In addition, Zhao Hu and I came here for the cultural relics. This mural Since I can't take it with me, I won't be too interested.
"Uncle, please watch here. Let's go in and search again to see if we can find the room full of delicacies."
Zhao Hu said at this time, and at the same time motioned for me to continue walking inside with him.
Although Uncle Su was a little reluctant to part with these murals, he was obviously more interested in the room full of delicacies. He said he didn't want to look at it and walked inside with us.
Behind the front tomb, there is another corridor. This corridor leads directly to the main tomb. When walking towards the main tomb, there are also many ear chambers on both sides.
It is quite strange that there are so many ear chambers in the tombs of the Tang Dynasty.
We went to the ear rooms to take a look. Some of the ear rooms were terracotta warriors and horses, and there were some terracotta warriors and horses, weapons, etc. Some of them had gold, silver, and jade, and some had some silk clothes, as well as mirrors, dressing tables, and chairs. , like a woman's boudoir.
It was obviously strange that the silk clothes looked unseasoned after all these years, but we already knew there was a "problem" with the tomb before we came, so we didn't make too much of a fuss.
After passing dozens of meters of corridor, we arrived at the main tomb chamber.
Compared with the front tomb, the main tomb is much smaller. I think the area is only about 20 to 30 square meters. There is only one stone coffin, and the lid of the coffin was opened. It was probably done by a group of tomb robbers.
Uncle Su carefully walked to the coffin, then climbed up and took a look inside. He said that there was a wooden coffin inside, and the lid of the wooden coffin was closed. He also said that the lid was carved with dragon and phoenix patterns, which looked very beautiful. Exquisite, with many gems inlaid on it.
Zhao Hu and I were also a little curious, so we climbed onto the stone coffin and looked inside.
Indeed, this coffin is very beautiful. When you shine a flashlight on it, the red and sapphires inlaid with it are sparkling, which makes people feel intoxicated.
"That noble concubine is in the wooden coffin, right?" Zhao Hu asked.
Uncle Su said that under normal circumstances, it should be inside, but this tomb is quite evil, so he couldn't tell what was lying inside. He said it might be a hidden weapon or something, or it might be something evil and dirty.
As for whether we should open this wooden coffin and take a look, Zhao Hu and I naturally don’t want to fight. After all, we are only looking for money and don’t want to put ourselves in danger. There is something wrong with the tomb itself, and now we are disturbing the owner of the tomb. , isn’t that just looking for trouble?
But Uncle Su's purpose is different from ours. He just wants to understand the secrets hidden behind this tomb. He said he really wants to open it and take a look.
But he also knew that opening the coffin was dangerous, and it was unfair to put us in danger, so he smiled and said: "I won't open this coffin for now. When you get the treasure out, Yaoji and I will come back later." Look, you just need to wait outside to pick us up. If something happens to us, save us if you can, and leave as soon as possible if you can't."
Zhao Hu said with a smile: "Uncle, what you said is unreasonable. We are still waiting to learn from you. As long as you are sure that you want to open this coffin, then we will open it with you. If there is danger, we will solve it together." That’s it.”
I also said: "Yes, uncle, Xiaoye has hired us for a year. Now we are still her employees. You are her father. When we work for you, we are working. You just give orders. Making money is making money." , work is work.”
"Then let's open this coffin and take a look?"
Zhao Hu and I looked at each other and nodded.
"Then I'll do a ceremony first, you guys wait a moment."
Uncle Su jumped down from the coffin, and then took out a white candle and a golden ring from the bag he carried.
This ring looks a bit like a necklace. Although it is gold, you can tell that it is not gold because it is bright and dazzling.
He first placed the golden ring on the floor, then lit the white candle, and dropped some wax oil in the center of the ring. Before the wax oil solidified, he glued the root of the candle to the wax oil.
Then, he stuck the index fingers and thumbs of both hands on the edge of the ring, picked up the ring and slowly moved it upward. When the ring was taken out from above the candle, the flame of the candle suddenly went out, and then a puff of green smoke came out. Come.
The green smoke had no intention of dissipating or fading, and was very strong.
Uncle Su then placed the ring on the ground again, and the green smoke rolled down and attached to the ring.
To be honest, Zhao Hu and I were very excited at this time. Uncle Su was obviously as capable as Master Li. He was probably doing some kind of formation.
This also made me feel more at ease. Since Uncle Su has real abilities, there is no need to be too afraid even if there are any evil spirits in the tomb.
Then, Uncle Su knelt on the ground, closed his eyes and began to bow.
While bowing, he recited a mantra: "The heaven and earth are natural, the odor is dispersed, the cave is mysterious, the sun shines brightly, the power of the eight directions makes me natural, the spiritual treasure talisman tells the nine heavens..."
When Uncle Su was reciting the incantation, the green smoke on the ring began to dissipate and spread around. Soon I smelled a fragrance. This fragrance seemed to have a refreshing effect, and I felt that my whole body was instantly refreshed. A lot.
After reciting the incantation, the entire main tomb was filled with this fragrance. Uncle Su stood up from the ground and said to us with a smile: "I just recited a great magic spell to exorcise ghosts. Even if there is evil in this coffin or something, Yes, I have temporarily suppressed it, let’s just open it.”
Then, we climbed up to the coffin again and pushed one of the coffin lids outward to reveal a larger gap. Then we took out some steel rods, ropes and other tools, opened the coffin lid, and then slowly moved it to one side. Push it into the gap.
When the lid of the coffin was pushed open, I kept my eyes on the inside.
The first thing that caught my eye was the golden quilt spread around the coffin, and then some funerary objects placed on the quilt. These funerary objects were all good things at first glance, and were more exquisite than those placed in the niches outside. Much more valuable.
Immediately afterwards, I saw another skull, with a skeleton frame attached to the bottom of the skull. However, the skeleton frame was wearing a red phoenix pattern robe. Judging from the state of preservation of the robe, it was intact, just like the silk clothes in the ear room outside. , they all look like they were just made.
After the entire coffin lid was pushed open and we took a look at the contents inside, there was nothing particularly surprising to us.
Zhao Hu also said at this time: "It's just a white skeleton, and then a bunch of funerary objects. I thought when I opened the coffin lid, it was a zombie or something, and it would jump up and bite people. It seems that I thought too much."
I asked whether we were too sensitive, and maybe this tomb was not as scary as the previous colleagues said.
"How about you sprinkle some chicken blood or quicklime on the bones and see if there is any reaction?" Zhao Hu said with a smile.
I said forget it, they didn't provoke me, so let's not disturb them. After saying that, I asked Uncle Su if he had noticed anything.
Uncle Su said that he had found nothing for the time being, and then opened the funerary objects next to the bones, as if he was looking for something.
"Why is there nothing that can prove her identity? There are no epitaphs found in the main tomb chamber or the front tomb chamber, right?" Uncle Su looked at me and Zhao Hu and asked.
I just finished speaking and didn't realize it. Suddenly there was a "pitch, prick, prick" sound from the walkie-talkie. It seemed that someone was talking to us, but the signal was very poor, so it was all noise.
