In fact, it's not just me. Almost everyone in our group is curious! !
At this time, the fat man suddenly muttered: "Could it be... the legendary corpse-scented konjac?"
Corpse-scented konjac, this is a strange plant that is said to grow in ancient tombs. It is very rare. Even my ancestor, the General of the Fa Qiu, who has been fighting for his whole life, has never seen it, but has only heard of it.
"Fa Qiu Secret Art" says that this corpse-scented konjac is a magical plant that is said to guard the entrance of King Solomon's treasure. It is weirder than the red spider lily in the underworld and can guide people to unknown wrong paths and death. However, after summarizing countless folk legends, my ancestor believed that the corpse-scented konjac was actually a kind of evil plant nourished by human corpses. Of course, not all corpses have the chance to produce corpse-scented konjac. Only corpses buried in coffins made of Kunlun sacred trees can produce this kind of flower. It is said that this flower can emit a very strange fragrance, which will lead people to death step by step. However, my ancestor did not say how the fragrance led people to death, because he had never seen the corpse-scented konjac!
The fat man's guess is absolutely very bold, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a wild imagination.
If it is really the corpse-scented konjac, doesn't it mean that we have found the coffin made of the legendary Kunlun sacred tree? This seems a bit ridiculous...
What is the Kunlun sacred tree? It is a legendary divine object and the treasure of Kunlun Mountain! It is said that the wood can grow even if its roots are cut off. It is the best wood for making coffins. After the body is put in, no antiseptic measures are needed. After tens of millions of years, the body will still look lifelike. It is hundreds of times better than the best wood for making coffins, ebony, or dark wood! Qin Shihuang wanted to find this Kunlun sacred wood to make a coffin, but unfortunately, he was rich in the world, but he couldn't find this rare treasure. He died of illness during the tour and was buried in a hurry.
It can be said that as long as we find the Kunlun sacred wood, it doesn't matter even if it is made into a coffin. If we pry off a piece of the coffin board, we will have enough to eat for a lifetime! !
"Never mind, let's get out first!"
Qing Yi frowned and interrupted our speculation, sighing: "What's the point of thinking so much if you can't get out alive?!"
This brought us back to reality. Looking at the devastation in the tomb, I smiled bitterly in my heart - yes, whether we can get out alive is another matter, what's the point of thinking about these things now?
So, we all shut up and followed Qing Yi step by step through the ear chamber and walked towards the steps leading to the main tomb.
It must be said that as the main site of the blasting, this tomb was really badly damaged. When I walked to the middle of the tomb, I could feel the ground shaking. It was obvious that the main structure had been destroyed. At present, this tomb did not collapse, almost entirely relying on the iron wood as the frame to support it.
In ancient times, there was no reinforced concrete, so when the pavilions were built in the Western Regions, they were all reinforced with a tree called ironwood that was abundant in the Western Regions at that time. This ironwood is also a strange wood, very tough, and it will not rot even if buried in the soil for thousands of years. During the period of the Thirty-Six Kingdoms in the Western Regions, many small countries did not master mature alchemy technology, so they all used this wood as weapons. Not to mention, it is really no worse than ordinary cast iron weapons. Of course, it is definitely not as good as the "hundred-refined steel" that had appeared in the Central Plains at that time.
However, this kind of wood is tough, but after all, it has been underground for 1,800 years. After being bombarded by the fat man with a detonator, it is really unknown how long it can last. Anyway, I am a little scared walking on this "dangerous house".
The closer to the main tomb chamber, the stronger the strange fragrance!
Although my desire to explore was weakened a lot after being hit by Qingyi, the desire for this fragrance in my heart has never disappeared. After walking to the secret door, I almost couldn't wait to get into the main tomb chamber.
Instantly, a strong fragrance completely overwhelmed me.
At this time, I was also shocked by the scene in the main tomb!
Corpse-scented konjac? No!
There was only one coffin in the entire main tomb - a huge lotus made of pure gold was placed in the middle of the main tomb. In the center of the lotus, there was a crystal coffin, which looked magnificent and dreamlike.
The lid of the crystal coffin was open, and inside lay a woman in a gorgeous dress. Her long light golden hair spread like a waterfall in the crystal coffin. She had very fair skin and a slender figure. She lay quietly in the crystal coffin. She didn't look like a woman who had died for a thousand years, but... a woman who was sleeping soundly.
Unfortunately, her face was covered with a jade mask, so I couldn't get a glimpse of her true appearance.
The jade mask is actually a jade mask. There are two types: one is a jade mask, and the other is a whole jade mask. This funeral tradition was very popular from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Han Dynasty, and it was also popular in the ancient Maya for a long time, because the ancients believed that wearing a jade mask on the face could prevent the soul from leaving the body, so that the body would never rot.
The jade mask on this woman's face is a whole jade mask, which almost covers her entire face, so that I can only see her crystal jade ears and a white neck.
Needless to say, this should be the Queen of Jingjue!
And the fragrance that deeply attracted me was emitted from her body!
So, did I encounter the legendary fragrant corpse? But it doesn't look like it!
A fragrant corpse is a corpse that emits a fragrance. The reason for its formation is hard to say, because so far only one fragrant corpse has been unearthed, which was a Qing Dynasty fragrant corpse unearthed in Dangshan. The fragrant corpse was wearing the official uniform of a first-rank official with a unicorn patch, but there was a fatal wound on the neck. The whole body exuded a strange fragrance. People speculated that the "Dangshan fragrant corpse" might be the legendary fragrant concubine of Emperor Qianlong.
However, the Dangshan fragrant corpse only emits fragrance after the coffin is opened. Although it is well preserved, it is only relative to the corpse!
Archaeologists are actually more bullshitty than writers. They clearly unearthed an ancient corpse with dry and black skin, which can only be barely said to be well preserved, but they like to say that it is extremely well preserved and lifelike, which makes people feel itchy. As a result, when they get closer, they take a look-damn, it's just a piece of air-dried bacon!
I have also seen pictures of the Dangshan Incense Corpse, which is completely different from the Queen of Jingjue in front of me!
The corpse of the Queen of Jingjue is truly lifelike, and looks just like a sleeping beauty!
Under the stimulation of the strong fragrance and curiosity, I actually had an idea that scared myself at this time - go over and take off the jade mask covering her face to see how beautiful she is.
I think she must be a woman of peerless beauty.
As soon as this idea came up, it was like a seed taking root and sprouting, and it was out of control, urging me to go over and take off the jade mask to see how enchanting and beautiful this former number one beauty in the Western Regions was!
Driven by this thought, I couldn't help but take a step forward. As soon as I took this step, I realized that it was not just me. Zhang Jinya and Fatty were also the same. Almost all of them looked obsessed. Zhang Jinya was even more unbearable. His drool was hanging down to his chin, drooping for a long time!
What surprised me even more was that Qingyi, Lin Qing, Cao Yuan and others were also the same. They walked over there with full obsession. Even Zhou Jing, a little kid who hadn't grown all his hair, was the same! ! !
I vaguely sensed that something was wrong. Others were interested in the appearance of the Queen of Jingjue, but Qingyi was devoted to Taoism and Zhou Jing was just an ignorant child. It was a bit strange that the two of them were curious about the appearance of the Queen of Jingjue.
But at this time, the desire to explore in my heart became stronger and stronger. I couldn't hold it back. I was always curious about what kind of face was under the jade mask! !
"Xiaotian!"
At this time, Hua Mulan's voice suddenly sounded in my heart: "Something is wrong, very wrong! We... seem to be in trouble!!"
I was shocked. This was the first time Hua Mulan spoke to me after she got angry with me, but I didn't care about being happy. I asked in my heart: "What's wrong? Did you see something?"
"You and I are in tune with each other. I can feel what you see, and I see the same thing as you. I suspect that I may be in trouble too!"
Hua Mulan's voice was indescribably solemn: "What a powerful thing, there must be something strange in it, as if something is confusing us! Your friends are all immersed in it and can't extricate themselves, but you and I are still barely keeping our sanity and not deeply involved. I guess I was barely able to resist because I am not a yang person; and you, I am afraid that you have the Buddha's relics to protect you, so you have not completely fallen for the time being! "
I was stunned, and I was a little anxious at the moment: "You mean... there is something wrong with the body of the Queen of Jingjue!"
"It's hard to say."
Hua Mulan hesitated and said: "We may have been deceived now, but we are not as deeply deceived as your friends, so what we see, smell, and hear may be false! In this state, we can't tell right from wrong, but I guess it is related to the body!"
Speaking of this, Hua Mulan pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "By the way, you might as well try to use the killing spirit! Killing spirit breaks the delusion, maybe you can see some clues!"
