When Lei Zi finished saying this, I was dumbfounded. No wonder the mummy felt familiar.
After taking a closer look, I found that the features of this mummy were very similar to mine.
Lone Wolf and I heard the sound, turned to look at Lei Zi's expression, and gradually realized this fact.
Lei Zi said, this mummy looks like me. Could it be that this mummy is my ancestor?
I just dared to think this way. Looking at the mummy in the pit, I suddenly felt frightened in my heart.
If it weren't for the cold weather now, I guess I wouldn't have goosebumps all over my body?
So when I heard Lei Zi say that the mummies in the pit looked like me, I was very shattered.
If this mummy was the owner of this ancient ruins during his lifetime, would he be my relative?
The whole cave was filled with the breath of death, and I even heard the heartbeat in my own body.
Lei Zi's words made me think deeply. Who is this mummy? Why do you look so similar to me?
I stared closely at the huddled mummy, and a series of questions flashed through my mind.
Lone Wolf and Lei Zi didn't speak either. They were probably shocked by this discovery.
After a while, I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down.
Then I looked at the mummy again and looked at it carefully from head to toe.
I found that the clothes on the mummy were very gorgeous, and there were also some jade pendants and gemstone accessories on them.
These are not things that an ordinary person can possess. This person was either rich or noble in ancient times.
But there's one thing I still can't figure out. This mummy has obviously been dead for hundreds of thousands of years.
But the clothes on his body were preserved so well, as if he had just died.
Moreover, this cave is full of cold and damp atmosphere, but the mummy has not been corroded.
How is this done? I couldn't figure it out, so I had to bury my doubts in my heart.
At this moment, I am even more certain that this mummy was definitely not an ordinary person during his lifetime.
If this is the case, then this is most likely his tomb, and the epitaph should not be difficult to find.
I immediately started searching on the walls of the cave, and soon I found writing on a wall.
I shined a flashlight on it and found a short article written on it, but the font was in Song Dynasty.
After seeing this text, I instantly made a simple judgment on the age of the ancient corpse.
The ancient corpse in the cave is not that old and is probably left over from the Ming Dynasty.
The characters are arranged neatly and each line is very clear. Although it is much different from the current simplified characters, it is not difficult for me to understand.
I read it briefly and found that this short article roughly told the life of the mummy owner, and seemed to be a record of his deeds during his lifetime.
But this brief reading also made me fall into silence again, confirming the identity of the mummy in front of me.
At the same time, something was also found on his body. Covered in silk and satin, there was a relic hanging around his waist.
It was a golden sign, engraved with cloud patterns, half an inch thick and three inches long, with coffin mountains engraved on it.
I endured the strong mood swings and picked up the gold medal hidden under the mummy's clothes with trembling hands.
Then he slowly took out the coffin mountainside medal hanging on my waist and compared the two gold medals together.
"This? How is this possible? Xiao Linzi, he is the Taibao of Coffin Mountain?"
Lei Zi couldn't help but exclaimed, and his voice rose several times. It seemed that he was indeed shocked.
"Coffin Mountain Taibao? What does this mean? Could this mummy be Coffin Mountain Taibao?"
I was stunned immediately, and the shock in my heart was no less than that of Lei Zi, or even worse.
The four words "Coffin Mountain Taibao" are very unfamiliar to ordinary people, and anyone who doesn't understand them will be confused.
But to me, the meaning of these four words is like a password that unlocks a shocking secret.
My mind was in a mess at this moment. I had only read the article roughly once, so how could I forget it?
In the short article, the master is described in his life as a monk and a legendary figure.
The description of him in the article is very vague, only briefly introducing some of his deeds, and also saying that he has a relationship with the emperor.
The waistband found on this mummy further confirmed that he and the owner described in the short article were the same person.
The emperor described is Zhu Yuanzhang, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, and the identity of the mummy is also the "Taibao of Coffin Mountain" personally designated by Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty.
"Coffin Mountain Taibao? How is this possible?" I said incoherently.
My whole body froze, and I felt a chill all over my body, as if a basin of cold water was poured on my head.
"Xiao Linzi, this mummy was the Taibao of Coffin Mountain during his lifetime? Then he is the legendary Taibao of Coffin Mountain?" Lei Zi also asked incoherently.
"I don't know either. During the Ming Dynasty, my ancestor of the Feng family was granted the title of King. He led his disciples and was recruited into the palace by Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang and was given the title of "Coffin Mountain Taibao"
"The person who died here may be a disciple of Feng Wangli, and he still needs to be analyzed."
I was filled with doubts, and I just felt that the mummy in front of me was like a mystery that needed to be solved.
It was very quiet in the cave at this time, and Lei Zi, Lone Lang, I, and I couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
After a long time, I took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly, trying to calm myself down.
Then I bowed deeply to the mummy and said, "Senior, if you were the Taibao of Coffin Mountain during your lifetime, you must be a very remarkable person."
"I respect you very much and thank you for leaving these clues so that I can learn about your life story."
During the search, I always had a question in my mind: How did this mummy die?
According to the description in the short article, this mummy was a monk and a legendary figure during his lifetime.
But he died in this dark cave without any trace of a fight.
Moreover, this mummy did not have any wounds or signs of poisoning, and it looked very normal.
So how did he die? And why did he die here? The cause of death remains a mystery.
These questions have been swirling in my mind, and I can't think of an answer even if I try hard.
Unfortunately, the real reason for his death was not left in the cave where he died.
Only some of his past deeds include the Coffin Mountain Taibao of the Feng family, who not only built imperial mausoleums for the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty.
Even more secretly, they adhere to an important task, that is, they have always guarded the dragon veins of the Ming Dynasty.
He was the guardian of the Zhu family's dragon vein in the Ming Dynasty, that is, the Taibao of Coffin Mountain was inextricably linked to the dragon vein.
This secret is buried in the long river of history, and I have not revealed it until now.
And now, the hidden cave in the ancient ruins that I am in is the real location of the three dragon veins.
Kunlun Mountain is the ancestral land of the Dragon Vein, and this mummy is just a watchman left to watch over the Dragon Vein during the Ming Dynasty.
In reverse, we began to infer the dragon veins of Zhu Yuanzhang's dynasty during the Ming Dynasty, and learned that Zhu Yuanzhang's branch of the dragon veins was distributed under the Kunlun Mountains.
I once again analyzed the dragon vein branches of Kunlun Mountain to deduce the connection between Zhu Yuanzhang's royal dragon vein in the Ming Dynasty,
Seeing this, I couldn't help but feel ripples in my heart. It turned out that this mummy actually had such a legendary story during its lifetime.
His life also withered with the passage of time. But his story will remain in this cave forever.
Suddenly, I felt some inexplicable sadness in my heart, because at this moment, I was thinking of someone.
That was Zou Pengyun we met in the Kunlun Glacier Rift. Why do practitioners come to Kunlun?
What purpose do they have? Through the clues I found myself and the situation I learned from Zou Pengyun.
Judging from the scattered clues obtained from my grandfather and even my master, the mummy of the Coffin Mountain Taibao in the ancient ruins where I am.
It is not just to protect the dragon veins of the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty, but to explore the secrets of the Kunlun Mountains through the protection of the dragon veins.
Or can it be understood this way? Are all the Yanlong League and the Coffin Mountain Taibao looking for something in the Kunlun Mountains?
