Finding that this was another closed stone room, Meng Zitao was very disappointed in his heart. However, no matter how disappointed he was, he still had to do what he had to do. He took a flashlight and started looking around.
Other changes are not big, but there is an extra sarcophagus in this stone room, and the material of the sarcophagus is unknown. It looks bright red, as if a layer of blood is splashed on the surface. In this environment Downstairs, weird and terrifying.
Seeing this blood coffin, Meng Zitao couldn't help but shudder, thinking, there won't be any monsters or monsters locked up in it!
If it were before, Meng Zitao would definitely not believe such an idea, but after experiencing those "Qiongqi" just now, he couldn't help but have this concern in his mind.
But worries came to an end. After searching for no mechanism in other parts of the stone chamber, Meng Zitao could only turn his attention to the blood coffin.
Meng Zitao walked to the blood coffin nervously. Nothing strange happened and he breathed a sigh of relief. Then he checked the surroundings and found nothing like a mechanism, so he put on a gas mask, took a deep breath, and pushed the lid of the sarcophagus.
Although the lid of this sarcophagus does not seem to be fixed on the surface, it is very difficult to push. Meng Zitao spent a lot of effort to push the lid open.
The moment the coffin lid was pushed open, Meng Zitao took a few steps back, observed for a moment, and saw that no zombies like those in the novel appeared. After waiting for a while, it seemed that there was indeed no danger, and then he stepped forward. forward.
Meng Zitao looked into the sarcophagus, and the first thing he saw was a male corpse, but to his surprise, it turned out to be a mummified corpse.
Normally, after the human body dies, the cells in the body will start their autolysis process. The lysosomes in the cells release various proteolytic enzymes to gradually degrade biological macromolecules into small molecules. In addition to this autolysis process, it is also naturally subject to various putrefaction and decomposition, which is a natural process.
¡°However, the mummy went against this natural process and did not decay. Instead, it was presented to modern people in the form of a mummy. The reason for this situation is mainly due to the dry burial environment, which leads to the dehydration of the corpse and the natural formation of mummies.
For example, the famous Loulan ancient corpse is due to the low terrain, dry climate and very little rainfall in the area. The corpse was only covered with coarse woolen cloth and sheepskin, with a layer of dry branches and sand on top, and there was no well-sealed coffin for burial. The body can be exposed to the air circulating outside. In the hot and dry desert, the water in the body evaporates quickly, which is extremely detrimental to the growth and reproduction of bacteria. Even the tissues that have begun to decay will gradually slow down their decay process, and finally remain in a stable and static state. , so that the body is preserved.
But the strange thing is that, Meng Zitao can clearly feel that although the surrounding area is not very humid, it cannot be said to be dry. If it were dry, the lamp oil would not be preserved, even if it was the shark's oil.
¡°In this case, how did this male corpse become a mummy? Meng Zitao was both shocked and confused about this. But then again, since entering the ancient tomb, he has seen a lot of weird situations, and the appearance of mummies is not too unexpected. For him, as long as there are no zombies, it will be fine.
Meng Zitao then carefully observed the mummy, which was very well preserved. It was wearing a brocade robe and a jade crown. Due to the long time, most of the brocade robe had turned black and was very fragile. It would probably break if touched. .
The mummy¡¯s hand is placed on its chest, and its face looks very peaceful. In addition, there are two pieces of jade placed in its eyes.
The texture of the two jade pieces is warm and moist, and you can tell at a glance that they are high-quality jade. The jade pieces are in the shape of date pits, with a convex surface, a hole drilled at each end, a flat back, fine polishing, and simple and smooth lines.
In our country, the tradition of using jade for burial can be traced back to the middle and late Neolithic Age at least 6,000-5,000 years ago. The deceased was either surrounded or covered with jade congs or jade bis, or covered his eyes with jade pieces, held jade in his hands, and held jade in his mouth. However, the shape of the jade held in his mouth, hands, and eyes was not fixed at that time and had a great influence. of arbitrariness.
Meng Zitao had seen a documentary about jade before and it was mentioned that some corpses in tombs unearthed five thousand years ago and three thousand years ago had jade or jade pieces placed in the eyes, which represented that the person had a noble status in life, and was most likely to be The shaman or wizard of the tribe.
Could it be that this mummy was a wizard during his lifetime?
Thoughts flashed through Meng Zitao's mind. He glanced at the jade piece on his eye but did not touch it. He had read an ancient book before, which said that the jade piece placed on the eye was actually to seal the owner's soul. He was worried about an accident if it moved.
In addition, objects such as jade crowns and brocade clothes of the mummyHe didn't move. Apart from the fact that this was not the purpose of his visit and he didn't want these things, he was mainly worried about an accident.
Meng Zitao continued to observe and immediately found a three-foot-long sword next to the mummy. He picked up the sword and noticed that the scabbard of the sword was made of leather. He did not know what kind of animal skin it was made of. It was completely black. And there are no signs of aging.
After looking at the scabbard, Meng Zitao pulled out the sword with a slight exertion. He saw that the blade was not long, the spine of the sword was convex, and the sword was wide. The whole body of the sword was black and shiny, and the sun, moon and stars were engraved on one side of the sword. , with mountains, rivers and vegetation carved on one side, and the blade is so sharp that it gives people a chill just looking at it.
"this¡¡"
Meng Zitao looked at the pattern engraved on the sword, his heart moved, and a look of shock appeared on his face: "Is this the legendary Xia Yu sword?"
Xia Yu Sword, many people call it Xuanyuan Xia Yu Sword, but in fact, Xuanyuan Sword and Xia Yu Sword are actually two swords. In addition to the sun, moon and stars on one side of the sword, the Xia Yu Sword is engraved with mountains, rivers and vegetation on the other side, and there is also a book on farming and animal husbandry on the hilt. , on the one hand, he wrote about the strategy of unifying the whole world.
The hilt of this sword does not have any of these carvings, so it should obviously be different from the legendary Xia Yu sword. The results given by the special ability show that this sword should be a product of the Xia Dynasty more than 3,000 years ago. In terms of age, , and the production period of Xia Yujian is also different. In terms of value, it is also much lower than Xia Yujian.
Therefore, it is more likely that this sword is actually an imitation of Xia Yu's sword.
But no matter what, this sword has experienced more than three thousand years without a trace of rust, which proves its value.
Without taking anything else, Meng Zitao was so happy to see the hunting spirit that he prepared to take away the sword. Moreover, the ancient tomb was really weird. With such a sword in hand, he might be able to solve some troubles at a critical moment.
Putting the sword away, Meng Zitao found that except for the jade crown, brocade clothes and two pieces of jade that were found before the sword, there was nothing else in the coffin. This was really unreasonable.
Immediately, he thought that the ancient tomb should have at least two floors. The people in this sarcophagus were probably just wizards or subordinates, not the owner of the tomb. It was normal to only have these things.
Meng Zitao bowed to the mummy, and then he moved the mummy to see if there were any mechanisms or passages under the corpse, but he didn't find any.
Shaking his head in disappointment, Meng Zitao was about to leave when he suddenly noticed that the mummy seemed to have something in its mouth. In terms of the form of jade burial, it was normal for the mummy to have jade in its mouth, but he discovered that the mummy's mouth was full of jade. The jade inside is somewhat like a yin-yang stone.
He hesitated for a moment, opened the mouth of the mummy with his hand, took out the stone in the mouth, and took a closer look to see that it was really a Yin-Yang stone.
However, this Yin-Yang stone is a little weird, because it is actually warm, feeling about forty degrees. Like before, the only thing he encountered that could generate heat was the dragon turtle statue, but it was only slightly warm and could not be compared with this Yin-Yang stone.
This unexpected discovery made Meng Zitao immediately have a guess. Could it be because of the Yin-Yang stone that carries temperature? In addition, the coffin is very well-sealed. Over time, the water is evaporated. Will this corpse become a mummy?
The three Yin-Yang stones discovered one after another should not be simple. They must all be treasures, but they do not help Meng Zitao's current predicament. He put away the warm yin-yang stone, then bowed to the mummy again, and closed the coffin lid again, and then he felt a little confused.
This stone room should be the last one now. There are no clues of any mechanism found here. Where can he find it?
What should I do next? Can I just die here?
Meng Zitao was a little hesitant. He couldn't think of any solution for a while. Then he suddenly had an idea and thought of something. Are those "Qiongqi" really sealed in those stone piles? This was obviously too contrary to common sense. Although too many strange things had happened since entering the ancient tomb, he still couldn't believe that those stone piles would become "wonderful".
Thinking of this, Meng Zitao packed up his things and returned to the place where "Qiongqi" appeared just now. When he was about to reach that location, he found that the stone pile that had disappeared had reappeared. This made him pause, worried that a few "Qiongqi" would suddenly appear.
Meng Zitao shook his head and smiled. He was really bitten by a snake once, and he has been afraid of well ropes for ten years. Not to mention other things, he was able to defeat "Qiongqi" with one punch before. If "Qiongqi" appeared again, wouldn't it still be the same ending?
"Bang!"
At this moment, Meng Zitao suddenly heard a gunshot. Although the sound was very small, with his current hearing, he could still tell that the gunshot was the sound of the same submachine pistol as his.
Meng Zitao became excited: "It's Dajun! He's still alive!"
But then, Meng Zitao became nervous again. Since the army had fired, it meant that they were probably in danger. If they encountered "Qiongqi" and the army didn't have Yin Yang Stone on them, it would definitely be difficult to defeat. Then it would probably be Encountered an unexpected incident(remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com)The sound of a gun.
