Snake Swamp Ghost Town Chapter 17 Whistle Coffin

Regarding his legend, old men generally have two opinions. One is that he really has the unique skills of hair mounds and his two-finger caving is well-deserved; the other is that Zhang Yancheng is a liar who took advantage of ordinary soldiers' superstition about coffins. Fear, calling an ordinary coffin a demon coffin, and then putting on a show to enhance his status.

He only saw Lian Lian standing on top of the iron coffin, helpless, and billowing black smoke came out of the mouth of the bronze man on the iron coffin.

What does this relief mean? The third uncle was surprised. All the murals in the ancient tombs had meanings. They were either symbolic or praising the great achievements of the tomb owners during their lifetime. Does this relief represent the fairyland in mythology, or is it praising the owner of the tomb?

The coffin treated in this way is called a "whistle coffin" because there is a hole in it and it will eventually turn into something similar to a huge iron whistle.

It's not that the third uncle is timid, it's just that this situation is really weird. In such a secret ancient tomb, there was actually a "person" lying on top of the coffin. Anyone who saw it suddenly would tremble a few times.

As soon as he thought about it, he felt relieved, and asked Xie Huanhuan to stay here. If he wanted to take pictures, he would take pictures of this coffin. The foreigner understood him, and he began to search the corners of the tomb for other burial objects.

He looked around with a flashlight, and it was clear that there were no other coffins in the tomb. Obviously, if this was the main tomb, this must be the coffin of the tomb owner.

This tomb has no ear chambers, it is a straight line from bottom to bottom, and the layout is very strange. The ancients believed that death should be treated as life. The layout of this tomb chamber is generally imitated according to the layout of the tomb owner during his lifetime. In other words, the place where the tomb owner lived during his lifetime was also in the same situation. I can't imagine what the situation would be like. There were no ordinary burial objects inside, only those priceless huge porcelains.

In this case, they must not touch the coffin, otherwise they will become cannon fodder for Jude Kao.

Although this iron coffin is extremely delicate and completely different from coffins cast randomly with iron slurry, the deep hole on the coffin looks very much like the legendary "whistle coffin". Nine_Nine_Collection_Books_Net

The third uncle believed in his intuition and felt a little uneasy.

Looking through the hole, the inside of the coffin is dark and unclear. It is not a good method to detect the hole with a flashlight. The scattered light can no longer shine through halfway. I can only feel that there is a light coming from under the throat of this "cast man". The yin energy makes my neck feel stiff just by looking at it. It's really not something ordinary people can do to reach down and touch it.

The shape of this bronze figure relief sculpture is very strange. It has flowing clouds and sideburns, and an exaggerated face. It is a bit like the terracotta figures of the Qin Dynasty. Its limbs are as thick and short as insect legs. The weirdest thing is that the mouth, neither smiling nor angry, turns out to be He tried his best to open it, as if screaming.

This is strange. The tomb that leads the way is the place where the owner of the tomb is located. Why does the main coffin on the coffin bed look like this? Could it be that the owner of the tomb is not a human, but a monster?

However, if he didn't touch the coffin, it seemed a bit too cowardly. He came down from Xie Lianhuan, and it was okay for Xie Lianhua to go out empty-handed. He also went out like this, so how could Jie Lianhua still have the face to say that? Besides, this coffin looks a bit tempting.

At this time, Zhang Yancheng would order people to dig a pit on the spot, sink the demon coffin in the pit, apply mud and melt the weapons, and seal the coffin with molten iron, leaving only a hole on the top of the coffin for only one hand to pass through. When the molten iron solidified, he entered the coffin with one hand and explored the contents. According to legend, this was his ancestral skill of Faqiu Zhonglang using two fingers to explore the cave.

The third uncle remembered the information that Xie Lianhuan had brought from the foreigner, and felt that his guess was correct: the foreigner was so familiar with the structure here, so he must have asked someone to come in to investigate before them, but why didn't the person who came in complete the work? Task? It is estimated that that person was a veteran in this industry like them. When he came in and found such an iron coffin inside, he knew that sealing the corpse in the iron coffin was not a trivial matter, so he gave up temporarily. That's why the foreigner found a half-hearted solution to the problem.

The third uncle shined his flashlight towards the coffin, and the moment he saw the "person\

,"His whole body was almost wrinkled and his scalp was numb. He subconsciously stepped back and took out the knife in his hand. Nine*Nine*Zang*Book*Net

With that said, he climbed up and used his flashlight to shine on the holes in the coffin to see what he could see.

The murals are not valuable, but the stone carvings of the ancient tomb are priceless. Although the screen wall is very large and unlikely to be shipped out, the third uncle saw it and couldn't help but take a look.

The third uncle saw that his feet were shaking, so he knew that he was still scared. This behavior may be to show off in front of the third uncle and save the face of being frightened just now.

"Whistle coffin" is still a saying handed down before liberation. Before EMI, the third uncle also listened to the old man's talk. It is said that at that time, there was a warlord in the western Hunan area, and he had a group of capable fighting men. The leader was named Zhang Yancheng. This man was said to be a descendant of General Cao Cao Faqiu. He had supernatural powers. The five fingers of his left hand were extremely long. They are almost the same. They can raise hills from flat ground, taste the soil to find tombs, and their tomb robbing skills are really impressive. This warlord followed Sun Yat-sen in the Northern Expedition. Zhang Yancheng was ordered to raise military pay, so he used ancient methods to rob tombs. Along the way north, he uncovered countless hidden ancient tombs, and he became famous. At that time, there was a saying in western Hunan that "when you arrive in Yancheng, the little ghost jumps, and when the king of hell comes, you will change your route." On the one hand, people were mythical, and on the other hand, we also know that Zhang Yancheng's tomb robbing activities were rampant.

The third uncle did not know that the owner of the tomb here was Wang Zanghai at the time, so he had no way of associating it. However, this exquisite relief left a very deep impression on him. He told me that even at that time, the screen wall was priceless. If he could take it out, he would put it in his bedroom and look at it every day.

My grandfather actually believed that Zhang Yancheng was an expert. That was because Zhang Yancheng's style of sealing demon coffins with molten iron had some side evidence. It is said that a bronze coffin similar to what Zhang Yancheng said was found in the mud where the Yellow River was diverted before liberation. There was indeed a hole as thick as an arm on the top of the coffin, but no one dared to reach in. Even those who were brave enough to use fire tongs could only use it. There was a lot of yellow mud inside. Later, during the "Great Leap Forward", the coffin was directly thrown into the steel-making furnace for refining. I don't know if anything happened to it.

But there is another very special situation, that is, after the cow blood is poured on it, it is like being poured on sand and gravel, and the blood seeps into the coffin body. This is an omen that is even more unlucky than the transformation of the corpse. This means that the blood in the coffin is Something, maybe not a human corpse. Book Collection Network

At this time, Xie Lianhuan also realized that it was a false alarm and walked over again, looking at the iron coffin with lingering fear. After looking around, he tried to push the coffin lid.

The third uncle couldn't make up his mind, but after thinking about it, his reason prevailed. He said that his ancestors' experience meant that the coffin should be touched last. He should first see what good things there are in other places here. He would leave the coffin for today. If you don't touch it, this ancient tomb won't escape. If they come down tomorrow night with fire chopsticks and black donkey hooves, it will be much safer than now. That's not cowardly.

The third uncle was stepped on by him and almost fell down, but at this time, he used a flashlight to see clearly what was on the coffin. It turned out to be a false alarm. The person on the coffin was a bronze figurine, tightly Attached to the black coffin.

Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly smelled a strange smell, as if something was burning.

If there's not a human corpse in the coffin, what is that? The answer is, unspeakable corpses. In China, such things are collectively called demons.

However, the third uncle was young at the time and would not take what the old man said too seriously. Although I was a little flustered, I was not afraid. Instead, he became curious, wondering what could be inside?

When the third uncle looked at it, he immediately felt something strange in his heart. Most people value peace and tranquility, but the combination of the iron coffin and the bronze man looked indescribably sinister and strange, something very wrong. Is this really the coffin of the tomb owner?

He couldn't help but cursed secretly, thinking that he was really stingy, why was there nothing? Could it be that the coffin was so big and made of iron, and that guy had stuffed all the funerary objects inside? Is this coffin used as a safe?

This person has a special way of robbing tombs. If he encounters a coffin opened in a bloody and evil place, he will drizzle the coffin with cow blood and observe the reaction of the coffin. If there is an abnormal sound in the coffin, the coffin owner may transform into a corpse. , the soldiers would drag the coffin out of the ancient tomb and expose it to the sun before opening it; if there is no abnormal movement in the coffin, you have to look at the surface of the coffin. In most cases, the cow blood will not condense and flow along the body of the coffin to the bottom of the coffin, which means that nothing is wrong. The coffin was opened fine.

wrong! The third uncle took a breath when he saw it, and then he immediately remembered the clues, and he felt bad in his heart.

The third uncle looked around the tomb, but didn't see anything that could be moved out, so he walked back. Behind the coffin bed was a screen wall. He walked around and looked behind the screen wall. There was still some space, but the ground was still empty.

The third uncle felt a chill as he thought about it. Thinking about how strange and mysterious this ancient tomb was, it was deep in the abyss of the sea. Maybe it was not a human tomb, but maybe it belonged to the Sea Dragon King. Thinking back to what Jude Kao asked Xie Huanhua to do, he couldn't help but feel guilty. Could it be that Jude Kao knew that the tomb owner was not a human being, so he asked Xie Huanhua to take photos for study?

It is said that Zhang Yancheng only used his two-finger caving skills three times in his life, and he escaped with all his strength. The best time was when he took out a twenty-four-scented golden grape from the coffin, which was only the size of a molar tooth. , said to be hidden in the mouth of the corpse. Zhang Yancheng later joined the warlords in the melee and his whereabouts are unknown. Some people say that he defected to the revolution. Finally, he died in a shelter during the "Cultural Revolution". Others say that he died in Huanggutun. After all, he is a mysterious figure.

The third uncle thought it was funny, so he shined a flashlight on his face to stop him from wasting his efforts. If this is a "whistle coffin", it is obvious that the processor of this coffin belongs to the same sect as Zhang Yancheng. The things inside this iron coffin are definitely not good, and this iron coffin was not built with the intention of others opening it. The only way to get something is to put your hand into the coffin hole like Zhang Yancheng did.

In order to take a closer look, he pushed away the chain link and walked over. When he took a closer look, he was even more surprised and found that the huge black coffin was actually a carved iron coffin. The bronze figure seemed to be a decoration added later. What's even more strange is that the position of the bronze man's mouth is sunken from the coffin lid, causing a deep hole to appear on the coffin lid. I don't know if it penetrates the coffin lid and leads to the inside of the coffin.

At this moment of fright, Jie Lianhuan also retreated to his third uncle's side. He must have never had any trouble in a fight before. He was so frightened that even his face changed. He retreated hastily and stepped on his third uncle's foot. superior. Jiu-Jiu-Zang-Book-Net

However, the screen wall was too huge and it was impossible to transport it out at that time. Although the third uncle was itchy, there was nothing he could do. He looked at it carefully several times and wanted to ask Xie Lianhuan to come over and take a photo of it so that he could brag among his colleagues in the future.

Thinking that it was really possible, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. At this time, he suddenly saw very complicated carvings on the back of the screen wall.

When exploring the cave, he would order someone to hold his arm with a three-foot pipa scissor, and tie the "knocking handle" to the horse's tail so that if he felt something was wrong, others could whip the horse immediately. The horse would be frightened and run away, pulling the engine. , the extremely sharp pipa scissors will immediately cut off, cutting off the hand to save your life.

He was stunned for a moment, wondering what was going on. This was a tomb, how could such a smell appear? He hurriedly ran out of the screen wall and looked outside. Then, he saw a scene that stunned him.

(These things are currently worth more than three billion.)

The coffin is sealed with pig iron and has holes in the body. Could this coffin be the "whistle coffin" that old people call it?

What the truth is, no one knows.

When he shined his flashlight on it, he was surprised. The reliefs behind the wall were not the ordinary auspicious beasts, clouds, Buddhas, or the images of rituals, music, and immortality. Instead, they were several palaces with flying eaves and phoenix roofs, and carved beams and painted buildings. They were very finely carved. , even the tiles are embossed one by one. Moreover, the appearance of each palace is different. Some are two-story and some are one-story. They are also visually distant and near, and they are well-proportioned. The third uncle counted, there were seven in total, arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper. Between each palace, you could see countless pavilions and pavilions, half hidden and half visible, while other details were obscured by the carved clouds. . The background of this relief is huge rocks, obviously a big mountain, and the composition of the palace is in the lower part of the entire relief. The meaning is very clear, these are seven palaces built in a huge valley, filled with clouds and mist. The things outside the palace are obscured and mysterious.
