After Datou's reminder, those people also got the idea, opened a hole on the side of the pottery jar, and released the coffin liquid. The rest of the team were also curious about their actions and gathered around to join in the fun.
There was a guy down there holding a gun and laughing: "Wei Laosan, you are also following the tricks of the local masters."
The man named Wei Laosan was the one who dug the hole in the pottery jar. He scolded back: "Don't be sarcastic. Don't be impatient when you pick out the good stuff later."
"I just heard that there was a white female corpse inside. Why, you miss your mother-in-law." The man replied with a smile.
All the liquid in the urn and coffin was drained, and a few people gathered around to watch. There was limited space on the top, so I came down. I didn't know what the big head said, but I saw Wei Laosan taking off his armed belt and trying to be soft. The body was lifted up on a stretcher, but unfortunately the body was wrapped in a layer of corpse oil, making it too slippery to lift.
Datou yelled, "Wait a minute," then turned around and called me: "Second Master, come up here and see what this is."
I climbed up curiously, not knowing what he was up to. I peeked inexplicably and found that in the water jar, in addition to the corpse and the sediment below, there were also some white paper figures that fell on the corpse because the water ran away. superior.
"It's a proxy."
"Are these paper figures? What are they used for?" Big Head asked me.
"Yes." I nodded, pointed at the paper figures and said, "The purpose is related to the 'cinnabar' on the paper figures. As the name suggests, Daidou means 'replacing the puppet'. In Japan, if someone has died in the family, especially Those who hang themselves will think that the evil spirits are too strong and will find a substitute, so the local people will put a paper figure under the pillow of a newborn baby with another baby drawn on it. They believe that this can attract evil spirits and bad luck to the puppet. After a year, people will hold a ceremony to put the dolls into the river and send them away, which is very similar to the funeral custom of sending meat dumplings in Taiwan."
"What do you mean, you want to transfer bad luck to this corpse?" Datou pointed at the corpse in confusion.
"No, I said that the purpose of paper figures is related to 'cinnabar'. You see, the paper figures here represent the meaning of exorcising ghosts."
Datou asked suspiciously: "Second Master, I don't have much education, so don't lie to me. Just these four points mean exorcising ghosts? I still believe it if you say it means four loaves."
I cursed, "Damn, you think I'm as unreliable as you. Let me tell you, in Japan, people have believed that sumo wrestlers have the power to keep ghosts away from them since ancient times. In all Japanese god worship ceremonies, The highest-level yokozuna in sumo wrestling will be approached to enter the venue. The wrestlers have a classic move, which is to alternately raise their legs high and then step heavily on the ground. This move is called the "four legs". The Japanese believe that The 'four strands' have the effect of 'trembling the earth and shaking the mountains', which will make the surrounding ghosts disperse, so if you see, those four points represent the 'four strands', which is to drive away ghosts."
Datou showed a genuine expression and muttered: "I thought every time I shook, it was because my pants were tight."
Wei Laosan looked around, swallowed, and shouted at me: "Stop talking nonsense, where did this ghost come from."
I shook my head and told him: "Japanese ghosts are different from Chinese ghosts. They think ghosts are natural monsters, the ones with horns on their foreheads, sharp claws and sharp teeth."
At this point, Datou and I looked at each other. He looked down at the corpse at the bottom of the urn and frowned. I had an intuition that he already regretted tricking those people into opening the coffin, but they had already accomplished this step and they would not accept it easily. hand.
The two of us retreated silently. Maitreya's people were still thinking of a solution. Datou whispered to me: "What do you think it could be?"
I cursed: "The devil knows what it is, but it's definitely not a good thing. You said you were lying to them, but it's okay now. It's hard to get off the horse."
His big head turned red and he cursed: "Who lied to them? I tell you that what I said about the fetus is all true. The person who died back then was none other than my old cousin. After he came back, he kept talking about it. People say that the urn is the urn. After he died, I was curious about a person who went to that tomb. The urn had been taken away by them, and I saw the urn, which was exactly the same as this one, so..."
I knew what he wanted to do, and said: "So you feel itchy when you see this urn coffin, don't you? I say you really want money at the expense of your life, and you dare to open any coffin. If you really want it, if you really want something, you can Just wait for future generations to open your coffin."
Datou was also a little embarrassed and muttered: "Isn't it that I am looking at strong soldiers and horses?"
"Also, I don't feel that there is any device inside. If you think about it, the pottery urns have been opened by Little Japan. Even if there is a device, they have taken it away. Take a step back and say, even if there is, then you think about it. After careful consideration, with the number and equipment of the little devils at that time, they were not able to take away the device..." I glanced at him, gritted my teeth and said, "I'm afraid there isn't a good person inside."
He wondered: "What else could it be?"
"Look at the surrounding environment." I looked around and said: "Where is this place, the little devil's laboratory, what was their purpose at that time, to win the battle, based on these two points, what can you think of?"
Datou glanced at me confusedly, then opened his mouth wide and said in surprise: "Weapons? Biochemical weapons?"
"It's very possible. They dug here and found something that could be used in war." I turned back to look at the jar niches on the surrounding stone pillars and whispered, "I think it's corpse poison. You also saw it along the way. Clues, there are knowledgeable people in the team of little devils, I think they are probably planning to extract the mold from the ancient corpses to make bacterial weapons."
Datou suddenly slapped his head. I was confused by his sudden action. He lowered his head and whispered to me: "We were still wondering at first how such a strong defense of the little devil was suddenly breached. What do you think? Could it be that the rot started from the inside?"
I looked at him in surprise. Big Tou's brain circuits are sometimes so strange, but what he said this time was completely possible. When I looked at the "boiler" again, I knew exactly what it was used for. It must be for observation. As for the test subjects, they were standing outside at the time, watching how the test subjects who had been infected with corpse poison were suffering inside.
I sighed and felt unfortunate for the victims. I poked my head and asked him if he could sing some verses about "Bliss in the Past". He said that he couldn't. At most, he could hum a few verses from previous years. The girl's version of the Great Compassion Mantra, I said, damn, don't you corpse lifters always recite the Purana Sutra before opening the coffin and lifting up the body? He said that it stands to reason that students have to get full marks in the exam, so there are no corpse lifters allowed. Are you not good at studying it? Is it okay if you can't memorize it?
The two of us were bickering when someone suddenly shouted, "Yes."
