"How could this be? The owner of the coffin had already become a skeleton. How could these two children be preserved so well? It can't be fake, right?"
Hu Bayi, who was still in disbelief, said,"
When they saw the boy and girl in the coffin, they were shocked.
Logically speaking, after so many years, the bones of these two children should be gone! How could it still be preserved so vividly?
"If I'm not wrong, it should be because of mercury. Only mercury can keep a corpse from rotting for thousands of years.”Qin Mu asked.
"Mercury? Why was there mercury? Moreover, how could these two children appear in someone else's coffin?”Yingzi asked curiously.
"They should be the children that the coffin owner chose to be buried with. In history, some nobles believed that as long as they could be accompanied by children, they could protect the prosperity of the family. Moreover, after death, they would not be lonely and could also show their status when they were alive. Therefore, in the Jin Dynasty, many dignitaries and nobles chose to be buried with children in order to show their power.”Qin Mu explained.
"Moreover, these corpses were all alive when they were filled with silver. A small hole was made on their heads with a wooden awl, and then mercury was poured in. After they died, their ears, nose, and throat were blocked with mercury. This way, the corpses would not rot for thousands of years like specimens.”
"That's too cruel!"
"The evil feudal society actually harmed so many innocent children.”
"These bastards are simply inhuman. Even animals would not do such a thing.”
“……”
After listening to Qin Mu's explanation.
Yingzi, Hu Bayi, and Fatty Wang were all furious.
Those nobles of the Jin Dynasty were too cruel. They actually used this method to bury people. It was simply torturing them to death! Moreover, they were all such young children. At the thought of this, the few of them felt a little indignant.
"Alright, the deceased has passed away. It's useless to say this now. The only thing we can do is to bring them out of the cemetery. Bury them properly so that they can reincarnate!”As Qin Mu spoke, he took out a piece of cloth from his bag and wrapped the boy and girl up.
Then, he walked out.
Everyone naturally had no objections.
Due to the battle with the bat, the exit had been blown up. Therefore, if they wanted to get out, they could only take the path to the main hall. Although the door was sealed, they had explosives now. As long as the dosage was about the same, they should be able to blow up the door smoothly without damaging the main body of the tomb.
And how to control the dosage.
Qin Mu naturally didn't need to worry about this. Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang were both experts.
If they were to make dumplings.
The two of them were indeed no match for him, but if they were to fiddle with bombs, they would definitely have no problem. After all, they had been dealing with bombs all the time during their years in the military. Therefore, it was naturally not difficult for them to blow up a door.
He quickly went around the armory and took some bombs and ammunition.
The few of them returned to the main tomb.
He looked at the sealed door.
Fatty Wang smiled and said,"You guys watch carefully."
"Brother Fatty, are you reliable? Could it be that the entire tomb chamber will explode? If that's the case, we really won't be able to get out.”Yingzi said worriedly. After all, Fatty Wang was indeed unreliable along the way. He was the one who caused the danger several times.
"Don't worry, sister. I'm indeed unreliable in other aspects, but when it comes to fiddling with bombs, even Old Hu isn't my match. When I was seven or eight years old, Old Master led me to play with this thing.”Fatty Wang said with a smug smile on his face.
Then, he placed the bomb on the door.
Then, he adjusted his position.
"Cover your ears and find a place to hide!"”
"Alright!"
Hu Bayi nodded.
After that, Qin Mu and Ying Zi also hid.
After everyone hid, Fatty immediately lit the fuse and wanted to run to the side.
A moment later, there was a loud bang.
Immediately after, the bomb exploded in the entire tomb. The door that was originally tightly shut was instantly opened. When they saw that the door was unobstructed, everyone's faces revealed joy. Then, they walked out.
Soon, they had reached the surface.
Immediately after, they dug a pit and placed the boys and girls inside. They made a simple grave. Although it was a little sloppy, it was much better than lying inside. After burying the boys and girls, Fatty Wang and Hu Bayi said,"Old Qin, we're going back to the capital to sell these things. What about you?”
As Old Hu finished speaking.
Qin Mu was just about to speak when suddenly, the system's notification sounded in his mind.
[Ding-dong. The host has activated the main mission selection.]”
"Option 1: Follow Fatty and Hu Bayi back to the capital, find Xue Li Yang and head to the ancient tomb of Jingjue City. Reward: Golden Pupil (Able to appraise all cultural relics in the world)"
"Option 2: Go to the desert alone to find Jingjue Ancient City. (Reward: Searching the Coffin with Two Fingers.)"
"Option 3: Stay in Ganggang Yingzi Village (Reward: 100,000 yuan in cash.）”
" I choose mission one."
When he saw the three choices given by the system, he was stunned.
Qin Mu chose the first option without hesitation. After all, it was impossible for him to go to Jingjue Ancient City alone. He didn't even know the route. As for staying in Ganggang Yingzi Village? That was even more impossible. It wasn't easy for him to transmigrate to this world, so Qin Mu naturally wanted his life to be more rich and not stay here forever.
Most importantly, the Golden Pupils could identify all the relics in the world.
Just this reward alone was enough to make him tempted.
Thinking of this, Qin Mu looked at Fatty and said,""I'll go with you! It just so happens that I also want to sell my mask for some money. However, before I leave, I still have something to tell you. Yingzi, there are many good things in this underground tomb. Now that the danger inside has been resolved by us, you can ask the villagers to come and take some back when you go back.”
"Are you leaving just like that? Aren't you going back to the village to take a look?" Yingzi asked with a melancholic tone. It wasn't that she was worried about Fatty and Hu Bayi, but that she couldn't bear to part with Qin Mu.
"No, we're in a hurry to get rid of these things.”Fatty said.
"Um…can we meet again? Brother Mu?" Yingzi asked with a slightly red face.
"Of course we can see each other again. I'll come back to see you. You can also go to Beijing to see us!”Qin Mu said with a smile.
"Alright, then we'll make a deal. I'll go to the capital to see you.”After Yingzi finished speaking, she immediately ran into the distance. Clearly, she was shy. Seeing her like this, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang had an expression of understanding.
