This is a bronze mirror. Partridge Master wiped off the dust on it, but the mirror surface is still bright and discernible.
The back is covered with patina, and the edges of the bronze mirror are decorated with bone stones that were a specialty of the Qin Dynasty. These stones are golden in color and can easily be mistaken for gold by those who don’t understand.
"This is a Legalist bronze mirror, a symbol of Legalism in the pre-Qin period. It is the most evil-proof thing in the world.
According to legend, the First Emperor once used it to suppress the corpses of the Yellow River. , actually ended up in the hands of King Xian.
If there is anything in the world that can suppress the corpse transformation, there is no other thing that can be suppressed by this bronze mirror. " < /p>
Before he could finish speaking, Young Master Partridge hurriedly returned to the bronze coffin with the bronze mirror in hand.
At this time, there was already the sound of nails scratching the metal in the copper coffin.
The chain hanging the copper coffin kept shaking. Young Partridge didn't care about anything else. He grabbed the chain of the copper coffin and jumped on top of the copper coffin.
He leaned over and pressed the Legalist mirror into the groove behind the copper coffin. However, because the fat man had pried it off, there was a large piece of space in the groove. Put the mirror on it. , the inlay is not tight and will fall off as soon as you let go.
"Sister, tape, medical tape, find the tape quickly."
Hu Bayi, who was following, saw the copper coffin shaking violently, and Young Master Partridge was lying on it. Don't dare to let go of the bronze mirror.
Lin Ruoyan quickly found the tape and took it out. She and Xue Liyang wrapped the bronze mirror tightly around the circle. The copper coffin was restrained again and stopped shaking violently. The shaking slowly became smaller and smaller. , until still again.
"Fat man, when will you get rid of this problem?" Hu Bayi gritted his teeth.
"And how many candles did you light just now?"
"Three, I am also a cultural person, how can I not know how to count? Look... ..." The fat man turned his head and looked at the corner, and was dumbfounded at first glance.
The original three candles have been extinguished, and only six weak blue lights appear on the right wall.
"This should be reflected by a fire source on the opposite side." Xue Liyang looked at the position opposite the blue light.
It was about seven or eight meters away from where they lit the candles, on the side of the tomb door.
Because the group of people were attracted by the three coffins after entering, the light source was limited. I didn't notice that there was something else in the doorway of the inner tomb.
Lin Ruoyan put out two more miner's lamps. When the light came on, most of the layout of the inner tomb was revealed.
There is a copper pillar on both sides of the tomb wall on this side. Three half-human, half-fish mummies are tied with chains on the top, middle and bottom of each copper pillar, six in total.
These mummies seem to be the legendary sharks. The upper body is in the shape of a woman, the neck is very thin, and the gills are also growing on it.
However, they do not have human skin, but are completelyThe body is covered with fine black scales, except for the belly.
The chains passed through the lute bones of the six sharks, tied them into a kneeling position, and locked them to the copper pillars.
This mermaid with a face covered with black scales has no lips, only two rows of sharp teeth widely opened.
When I shined a flashlight, I saw that there was a piece of tinder inserted into the dry and hard tongue inside, which was emitting a faint blue light.
The six points of light next to the candle should be the reflection of the shark candle.
"Isn't this different from the enchanting and sexy mermaid in our imagination? However, it is still novel. Lao Hu, you said I want to take it out and give it to the museum in our capital. Will you give it to me?" A banner for me?"
The fat man poked the shark corpse with the barrel of his gun.
"Commander Wang, you are of high consciousness, but when did you change your bad-hand problem? I can award you ten banners."
Hu Bayi I let go of my anxious heart. I originally wanted to smoke a cigarette to calm down my shock, but since there was an elder like Mr. Partridge around, I was too embarrassed to take it out.

"The candle is out, I'll light it again." The fat man pointed at the candle and ran over quickly.
"This is the longevity candle, a prop used to indicate that the body of the tomb owner has been destroyed, but the soul still exists. After we come in, the oxygen gradually increases, and the tinder automatically ignites when it encounters the air." Hu Bayi explained.
"Did ancient nobles generally use this shark ointment to make ten thousand year lamps? Why did King Xian directly use its corpse to make candles?" Xue Liyang was confused.
"Legend has it that the East China Sea sharks live under an island made of dead coral in the sea. They are the most obscene, bloodthirsty and cruel. They often make noises in the nearby waters, lure merchants on ships, and eat all their bones.
Yunnan is located in the inland, and it takes a long time to arrest these sharks. In addition, this shark has a violent temperament and is extremely difficult to hunt. It may be too late for King Xian to capture this shark. Make ointment."
Partridge Master said.
"Brother Hu, since the longevity candle represents the physical existence of the tomb owner, how come there are six of them? And..."
Lin Ruoyan pointed to another On the tomb wall on the side: "Three longevity candles also appeared over there."
The direction Lin Ruoyan pointed was exactly where Zhang Qiling was looking.
There are also three copper pillars over there, but they are much scarier than the shark lanterns here.
They were three fat men, two boys and one girl, about eleven or twelve years old, made to look like they were trying to attract children.
The posture is also like kneeling in worship, with a peaceful expression, head bowed and eyes closed.
The position of the belly should be the same as the copper pillar at the back. It is filled with grease. The wick is placed at the navel and hangs down a long length. The grease can flow through the navel and along the wick rope.
"These children..." In the future, they would still be happily going to school. Lin Ruoyan didn't want to look anymore and turned to the other side.
From this angle, she discovered that there was a large bull-headed black copper lamp on the other side of the coffin, which was several times larger than these eternal candles, but it was not lit.
"Brother Hu, there are already ten longevity candles here. Are there ten bodies of kings here?" Lin Ruoyan pointed at the bull-headed lantern and said.
[Host, that vague energy is above. 】The system makes a sound.
When Lin Ruoyan heard the system's words, he raised his head and looked up. Due to the lack of light, nothing unusual could be seen above, except for the slightly hanging copper coffin.
Huh? Shaking? Lin Ruoyan glanced at the copper coffin and looked away, but suddenly realized, there was no one over there, how could it be wandering?
A black shadow jumped on the bronze coffin, it was the little brother.
But the moment he jumped up, the chain hanging the bronze coffin broke, and it hit the ground with him.
When Hu Bayi and the others heard Lin Ruoyan's words, the situation changed before they even reached Niutoudeng.
The bronze coffin broke a big hole on the ground of the tomb. Amidst the sound of several wooden cracks, the bronze coffin only stayed for a moment before falling into the big hole it broke.
Taking advantage of the moment when the copper coffin stopped, Lin Ruoyan's figure flashed up, and she only had time to grab Zhang Qiling's hat and lift him up.
Zhang Qiling did not panic the moment it fell. He listened to the echo of the copper coffin falling to the ground and judged that the space below was not deep, at most three meters high.
But the moment he fell, Lin Ruoyan grabbed his hat and panicked. He was hung up by his neck and almost strangled to death.
Fortunately, the jacket was zippered, so he opened it with one hand and relieved the suffocation around his neck.
He retracted his arms inwards, took off his coat, and jumped down.
! ! ! Although he has good intentions, he will never wear hooded clothes again when he goes to the tomb with her.
I’m not sure whether I’ll fall to death or not, but I’m sure I’ll be strangled to death by her next time.
