Lao Bai obeyed my master's orders 100%. Without any hesitation, he rolled up his sleeves and took a step forward. Just when his hands were about to touch the corpse, half of a nematode suddenly emerged from a wormhole the size of an ant hole on the corpse's face. It was just thicker and stronger, and it was about to wrap around Lao Bai's fingers.
Lao Bai had suffered from this kind of thing before, and even left an indelible psychological shadow. He was so scared that he withdrew his hand like lightning.
Every tribe has its own leader, whether it is human or animal, and nematodes are no exception.
Obviously, the one in front of us should be the worm king, but this place has long been connected, and this worm king is just struggling to survive. It is estimated that it just tried its best to find a new host for itself. Its failure to get into Lao Bai's body has doomed its fate. We don't need to do anything. Half of its body squirmed for a moment and then drooped limply, hanging on the face of the corpse, motionless.
Lao Bai got scared, turned his head and looked at my master for help, and said tremblingly: "Mr. Zhang, I am most afraid of maggots..."
Swish!
A flash of cold light flashed by.
The half of the corpse's chin fell down with a "thump", and then a large pool of colorful and filthy things could be seen flowing out of the corpse's mouth, and the stench was overwhelming...
The one who drew the sword was naturally my master. At this moment, he stared at this scene and said lightly: "This is the cause of his death."
"Fuck! Is this the internal organs?"
Lao Bai exclaimed, jumped up, and then leaned over to take a look, and shouted with disgust: "It really is, black and purple... This is the lung, my god, what on earth did this man go through, the whole lung is broken, just like Xizhilang jelly, um... It's in a bag, the kind that can be sucked."
We deal with the dead, and we have seen a lot of weird and disgusting corpses. We didn't think it was anything, but after he said that, we couldn't help but feel disgusted.
Brother Yaozi snorted and said expressionlessly: "The corpse is not completely decayed. Only the outside is decayed, but the contents of the stomach are still in the state of death."
As he said, after these internal organs fell to the ground, they decayed in the blink of an eye, and finally turned into a pool of black filth with a foul odor.
Brother Yaozi looked up and asked my master: "Uncle, these internal organs are all broken. Did they suffer a heavy blow before death?"
My master didn't say anything. The sword pointed to the chest of the corpse. The sternum was intact. If the internal organs were shattered by a heavy blow, the sternum or the back spine would definitely not be preserved intact and would have been broken long ago.
"Is he poisoned?"
Wushuang rarely spoke up: "Grandpa once told me that there are some very powerful poison makers in this world who can make powerful poisons that can make people heartbroken."
"The things he vomited out not only have lungs, but also spleen and stomach. If he was poisoned, his stomach must be black."
My master shook his head again and said: "His deformity and broken internal organs are all caused by external forces. Can you think of what kind of force can make people like this?"
I carefully observed the body. There was no external injury, but the internal organs were all rotten. This way of death was too weird and unheard of.
Zhang Xinya seemed to be hesitant to speak. My master was careful and soon noticed Zhang Xinya's strange expression, so he asked her to speak whatever she thought.
"I have some ideas, but... it's too shocking."
Zhang Xinya looked embarrassed and said hesitantly: "Deformed, broken internal organs... This looks like death by radiation!"
"Nuclear radiation?"
Lao Bai rolled his eyes: "Can it be more reliable?!"
"I said it too, it just looks like it!"
Zhang Xinya emphasized: "If it's broken internal organs, there are many explanations, but a healthy person suddenly becomes deformed, this must be a genetic mutation. The combination of these two, except for nuclear radiation, I really can't think of any other possibility!"
We looked at each other, not knowing whether to believe it or not.
Many aspects have proved that this ancient country was extremely glorious and touched the edge of modern science early, but... to say that they have touched nuclear power is still too mysterious. In everyone's mind, humans have only been exposed to this category for the first time since the last century. Now suddenly an unknown ancient country pops up and says that they started playing with this thousands of years ago. This is completely subversive!
At least, I don't believe it! !
Out of brother-sister affection, Brother Yaozi has always been a crazy fan of Zhang Xinya. If there are conditions, he will support her with both hands and feet. If there are no conditions, he will create conditions to support her. After thinking hard for a long time, he suddenly said, "Don't rush to veto Erya. There are many radiations in nature. Maybe they have come into contact with some radioactive minerals?"
Even Zhang Xinya herself shook her head at this statement. The radiation of those radioactive minerals is not enough to make people look like this. Some are even negligible, not even as strong as the radiation of mobile phones. If people can look like this, the radiation is probably no different from a nuclear reactor leak. This can only mean that the other party has begun to master nuclear power.
Zhang Xinya thought about it and felt that if such a country really emerged a thousand years ago, it would be an invincible force on the entire earth. It would not even need an army. It only needed a few scientists to tinker with it. The powerful Han Dynasty, the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Rome and Persia would all be destroyed. How could such a country be unknown?
So, she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth and laughed at herself. Even she felt that it was unlikely.
We didn't find any answers. Just when we were getting bored and were about to break open the tomb door and enter the tomb directly, Lao Bai suddenly said "Huh", and then he pointed at the deformed corpse and said, "This guy seems to have something under his hem!"
He wanted to touch it with his hands, but he was a little worried that there were still bugs on the corpse, so he pulled out a short knife from his boots and used it to pick the hem of the round-necked robe.
The clothes on the corpse are now in a mess. The moment the tomb door was opened, the corpse decayed, and the moisture and grease evaporated in an instant. These things finally attached to the clothes, making the clothes dirty. Lao Bai just picked it up with the short knife, and he could see the soup dripping down.
Lao Bai was so choked that he couldn't help but turn his face away and gasped.
With a "crack", the belt tied around the corpse's waist suddenly broke due to the pulling force and scattered all over the ground. Although it was dirty, I still found a jade belt and a rhino horn plaque from those bits and pieces. These things are the identity symbols of the corpse. Jade belts and rhino horn plaques are things that only third-rank officials in the Tang Dynasty can use. Guo Xun is also a eunuch, which means that his official position at that time was at least the level of Junior Supervisor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If he is not compared with Gao Lishi, the Duke of Qi and the General of the Cavalry, he is probably at the peak of eunuchs.
After a while, Lao Bai finally recovered from the rolling corpse stench. He was very careful, fearing that something would happen to the corpse again, and carefully lifted the hem and put it on the shoulders of the corpse.
Fortunately, Guo Xun was a Tang Dynasty man, at least he had pants at that time, unlike the Qin and Han dynasties, where the hem of a eunuch could be lifted and he would pee three feet into the wind. It was convenient, but we were not in the mood to observe the body structure of a eunuch. This actually met our inner demands. Guo Xun at least had a pair of tattered shorts on his legs, and between his legs, there was a book! !
This discovery made our eyes shine! !
This book is made of leather. Although it is corrupted, it is generally well preserved, and the loss of content is not too much! !
Guo Xun played a very important role in the whole thing. Although we have seen his body now, his life and death are a mystery, and it is becoming increasingly unclear. The book he carried with him before his death may have some answers. How can we not be excited?
The corpse oil and the moisture on the body soaked the book, so that the handwriting looks very blurred.
Lao Bai picked up the book with a short knife and threw it on the ground with a "pop", splashing the juice everywhere...
It is definitely painful to read such a flavorful book, but in order to understand the mystery in my heart, I still leaned over to carefully identify it.
The book was open. Guo Xun was reading this page at the last moment before his death. There were only a few words on it, and most of them were difficult to recognize. I only saw three words, but I still guessed what the content was at the first time, because it was a famous saying!
"Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers of different species?"
I looked very excited. Could this sentence be the roar in Guo Xun's heart before his death?
This sentence is the famous saying of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang when they rose up in Daze Township. If it is put in the present, these two people can probably be regarded as the pioneers of resistance. Many idiots like to shout this sentence to express their feelings, but in ancient times, this kind of words are a bit sensitive, at least those emperors don't like it. It will cause problems if idiots shout like this...
Unless, he really has a rebellious heart, then there is no need to hide it!
"What does this grandson want to do?"
Lao Bai sniffed: "He is a eunuch. Although he has lost a little meat on his body, he can't be the emperor just because of this little meat!!"
After a pause, he hurriedly urged: "Quick, turn it over and see what this grandson wants to do?!"
