Bai Yi was a little excited when he heard this, and he really got something from the auspicious acupoint in the bamboo forest: "Master, did you really get something from the bamboo forest?"

"That's right, going down the robbery cave, we found a large tomb. There are many water vessels, sinks, lupans, etc. with inscriptions engraved on it. Wang's inscription." He Baosheng was very impressed with that experience, and he remembered some details clearly.

"Xu Guo." Bai Yi murmured: "Master, after going down, you went to Yincao?" Bai Yi actually had no idea about Yincao, so he could only ask He Baosheng for all the clues about Yincao.

"No, things are far more complicated than you imagined." He Baosheng said: "After we went down, we found that the tomb below was 49 square meters in size, and there were [-] coffins on several sides."

49. This number has a very unusual meaning in ancient China. The ancients practiced a cycle, seven, seven, forty-nine, or ninety-nine, 81, etc.According to the customs in many areas of China, from death to burial, it takes 49 days of sacrifice, and the eternal lamp has to be lit for 49 consecutive days.There will be a big sacrificial ceremony every seven days, what kind of ancient tomb is this, there are so many coffins!

"Bai Yi, you might not have imagined that when these coffins were opened, there were still the same type of melon seeds inside, and they were in an undigested state." He Baosheng's expression was a little exaggerated.

Bai Yi said: "This shows at least two things. First, these people died in the summer when the melons and fruits were ripe and ate the poisonous melons. Second, these people may have died at the same time, and they were After falling asleep."

"That's right, Bai Yi, you are still the same as before, good at analyzing." He Baosheng nodded appreciatively: "Guess again, what else is different in these 49 coffins?"

"Don't tell me that all 49 coffins are empty, Master." Bai Yi has completely returned to the state of chatting with Master back then.

"Oh, just opening these 49 coffins made me and Xiaogui very tired. The result is really irritating. These 49 coffins are full of women's corpses!" He Baosheng closed his eyes, as if recalling that time The scene: "Their postures are also very strange. They lie on the right side, with their left leg resting on the right leg, and their right hand resting on their head, as if they are sleeping comfortably. Such movements are obviously not a state of natural death. It was deliberately placed during the burial."

"Naked burial?" Bai Yi said, "Master, are these 49 coffins all made of a whole piece of log and split in half from the middle?"

"How do you know?" He Baosheng was shocked.

"This is the custom of naked burial." Bai Yi said: "Naked burial without a quilt or coffin for the deceased is called naked burial. It is an ancient burial method of the Han nationality. Until the Western Han Dynasty, the custom of naked burial was still maintained. After death, people take off their clothes, wrap them in deerskin, or put them in a whole section of log coffin, in order to maintain the integrity of the soul."

"Not bad, Bai Yi, your knowledge and experience have increased a lot over the years." He Baosheng praised: "I, an old man, can't compare to you."

"Where is it?" Bai Yi said: "Master, you are more funny than before. By the way, Master, did you know the identities of these corpses in that tomb?"

"Well." He Baosheng said: "At that time, we deduced from the inscriptions that these people were people from 500 years ago. Back then, there were only Ganyue people and Yangyue people in Jiangxi. Xu Guo was in the Western Zhou Dynasty. The largest country in the Dongyi Group is nothing more than one of these two types of people."

"That's right, but Master, when it comes to this, it's just a matter in the underground palace, that evil woman." Bai Yi met He Baosheng's eyes, a little embarrassed: "Master, I know I'm too impatient, but, you know , outside, Tang Sancheng and the others will run in soon, and it will be difficult for us to talk, Master, before they come back, you old man will make a long story short."

"Okay, when we went down to the underground palace where the naked body was buried, we didn't find any particularly valuable artifacts. You also know that we followed Lord Guan, and we haven't seen any rare artifacts. The Ming artifacts in the underground palace at that time The weapon couldn't get into our eyes at all, and for a while, Xiaogui and I were a little disappointed."

Just when He Baosheng was disappointed, he saw a light shining on the wall. He asked Xiaogui if he saw it. Xiaogui looked at the wall suspiciously and shook his head repeatedly: "No, brother, are you blind?" gone?"

He Baosheng also thought he was delusional, because the light was not an open flame or a lighting facility, it was like a hallucination that appeared in a flash. He began to walk around in the tomb, trying to find other artifacts, Xiaogui Then he packed up the artifacts that had been discovered. Although they were not eye-catching, they were valuable anyway, and he couldn't go up empty-handed after they got down. He Baosheng saw a little light again, which came out from the stone wall of the tomb, faintly. The ground, like a will-o'-the-wisp that suddenly appeared, flickered towards He Baosheng.

This time, He Baosheng didn't ask Xiaogui if he could see it. He walked towards the wall in a mysterious way. When Bai Yi heard this, he saw the unusual look on He Baosheng's face, and knew that the light was definitely not simple. ...

It is indeed not simple. When He Baosheng walked to the wall, the light disappeared again. This time, He Baosheng stopped going to other places and just waited there. He had a feeling that the light would still be there. Then, just five seconds after He Baosheng thought this way, the light flickered inside the wall again. He Baosheng saw the timing right this time, and stretched out a hand to touch the light...

He Baosheng suddenly stopped talking at this point, and now Bai Yi was very anxious to death: "Master, what happened later, you want to play tricks, but you can't sell it here!"

"It's not that I don't want to talk about it, it's that I can't use words to describe the scene and feelings at that time." The expression on He Baosheng's face was a little confused: "Apprentice, I have thought about it countless times afterwards, what happened at that time, But I only remember that there was light that enveloped my body, a very soft light, and how things happened afterwards, I seem to have lost my memory."

He Baosheng continued: "It's not that your master is hypocritical. There is really no way to describe what happened in an instant. That feeling can only be remembered in my heart. What is that?"

"It can only be understood, not expressed in words." Bai Yi understood.
