Hearing the fat man's cry, Nan Feng hurriedly jumped off the stone wall and looked for gaps and gaps around him.
The reason why the fat man survived the catastrophe was not directly related to the Eight-part Golden Body. His Eight-part Golden Body had not yet reached the fifth level and could not withstand the heavy pressure. He was alive thanks to Gao Pingsheng. Gao Pingsheng had previously moved a large number of rocks under the stone wall to the south area. It was these rocks that held up the stone wall, leaving some space below the stone wall.
The fat man was stuck under the stone wall, face down, head facing west, and legs facing east.
The gap was narrow and it felt oppressive. The fat man panicked, "Hurry up, I'm going to be suffocated."
"You can retreat if you can." Nanfeng shouted.
"You can't move." The fat man shouted.
"Don't worry, I'll save you." Nanfeng put down the bag, took out a change of clothes, cut it with a short knife, formed a rope, got in close to the ground, and put the rope around the fat man's ankles.
Nanfeng was thin and easy to get in and out. After exiting, he and Zhuge Chanjuan worked together to drag the fat man out.
Seeing the sun again, the fat man was in a good mood and patted the dirt on his body, "Oh, you almost choked me to death."
"Where's the hammer?" Nanfeng looked at the cave on the north side. Compared with the cave in Taiyi Mountain, this cave is larger. The layout inside is also different. You can't see all the details at a glance, but the layout The three sarcophagi in the middle of the cave were clearly visible.
"It's down there. Go and help me take it out." The fat man said.
Everything has its own priority. Nanfeng did not rush to help the fat man get back the hammer, but turned around and walked to the cave on the north side. Zhuge Chanjuan patted the fat man on the shoulder, turned around and followed Nanfeng.
"Why are there three coffins?" Zhuge Chanjuan asked doubtfully.
Nanfeng shook his head. The person who lived here before was one of the nine Taoists who studied the Tortoise Shell Heavenly Book. The Taoist who lived in Taiyi Mountain had already become an immortal. Even if the Taoist who lived here could not ascend, he should only be able to ascend. How come there are three coffins from one coffin
When they reached the entrance of the cave, Nanfeng stopped and looked at the situation in the cave intently. This cave was twice as big as the cave in Taiyi Mountain. There were more utensils in the cave than that one. It was also laid out from east to west, with the east side being the most conspicuous. There are a bunch of chimes, some large and some small, there must be twenty or thirty of them. They should have been hanging on the wooden frame before, but now the wooden frame is rotten and the chimes have fallen to the ground.
In addition to chimes, there are many other musical instruments in the east area. Nanfeng recognized the Yu and Guqin, both of which were in serious decay.
There is a pile of wooden debris in the northern part of the east area. It should have been a large wooden bed before, but it is now decayed and collapsed.
There is a stone platform to the south of the wooden bed. The stone platform is round and has many dishes on it. It should have been a place for eating.
There is something else on the south side of the stone platform. It is a tea table, made of stone, with a teapot and teacups on it. There are two teapots and two sets of teacups, each set contains three.
There is no statue of a god in this cave. To the north is a pile of decayed wooden utensils, which should have been cabinets or boxes before. In the middle area are the three coffins, all of which are stone coffins. The one in the middle is the largest, and the ones on the left and right are slightly smaller, parked in the north and south.
There is a stove in the west area, and there are also many stone niches dug into the mountain. However, they are not filled with books and bamboo slips, but various living utensils. There are all jars, pots and basins, and all kinds of cooking stoves are also complete. There are several sets of woks and pots for cooking meat and bottles for drinking wine.
The fat man came over and looked around, "This Taoist priest lived a very happy life."
Nan Feng also felt the same way. No matter how you look at it, this place doesn't look like a Taoist's place of pure cultivation. Instead, it looks a bit like a golden house where you hide your love, with everything you need to eat, drink, and have fun.
"Why are you still standing there, looking for tortoise shells." The fat man walked into the cave first.
Fatty's favorite thing to do is to collect utensils. Before, he had no ability, so he could only recycle other people's used bottles and jars. Now that he has become more capable, he can't change this habit. But at this time, he is searching for gold and silver utensils and other items. Something interesting to him.
Because there is a gap at the top of the cave, the cave is exposed to wind and moisture. All the wooden utensils are damaged, and all the copper utensils are also green. Fatty has experience. He picks out the yellow and gray ones and looks at them. Gold usually does not change color, it is yellow, and silver changes with time. It will gradually turn gray over time.
While the fat man was picking and placing them, Zhuge Chanjuan walked towards the pile of rotten wooden utensils in the north, picked up an object and showed it to Nanfeng, "A woman once lived here."
Nanfeng was looking at the sarcophagi. When he heard the sound, he looked up and saw that Zhuge Chanjuan was holding a grate. Judging from the material, it was made of horn.
At this time, both men and women had long hair, but the tools used to comb their hair were different. Men used combs with wider teeth. Women use combs with denser teeth. If a woman uses a comb, her hair will not be neatly styled and will look sloppy. If a man uses a comb and combs his hair too finely, he will look oily and powdery.
After showing the grate to the south wind, Zhuge Chanjuan knelt down and continued searching. The fat man searched for the pile of musical instruments and walked to the northeast area to look at the remains of the wooden bed. After rummaging through it, he picked up a string of blue beads and said, "Hey, look, what is this?"
Nanfeng shook his head, "I don't recognize him."
"It must be something good strung with gold threads," said the fat man.
"Show me." Zhuge Chanjuan waved to the fat man.
The fat man gave it over, and Zhuge Chanjuan took it and put her hands around her neck, "Give it to me."
"Okay." The fat man said generously.
Nanfeng frowned and looked at Zhuge Chanjuan, "You just wear whatever you want."
"Jingzhou Stone." Zhuge Chanjuan said casually.
The fat man went back to look through the pile of broken beds, and Zhuge Chanjuan looked for the pile of broken boxes and cabinets. From time to time, the two of them found some precious objects and showed them to Nanfeng. After they were sure they were of no use, they took them themselves.
Nanfeng had long known what Fatty was, but he didn't expect that Zhuge Chanjuan was also interested in these things. However, Zhuge Chanjuan didn't like gold and silver, but all kinds of jewelry, bead chains, grates, earrings and other jewelry. .
"Why are there so many ornaments here?" Zhuge Chanjuan asked.
Nanfeng did not answer, but looked at the fat man, "Do you still remember how many Taoist priests were on the murals you saw in the Orc Valley?"
"I didn't count in detail, what's wrong?" the fat man asked.
"Is there any Kun Dao inside?" Nanfeng asked again.
"Kun Dao is a female Taoist priest, right? There seems to be one." The fat man was not sure.
Nanfeng did not ask again. Taoists rarely wear jewelry. Even if it is Kun Dao who lives here, he should not have so many jewelry. Furthermore, Gao Ping should not have been a woman in his previous life. If you think about it carefully, these jewelry should belong to a secular woman, but why would a secular woman appear here? Could it be that she is a Taoist family member
While Nanfeng frowned and thought, the fat man found something else, "Hey, Zhuge, what is this?"
"Coral pendant." Zhuge Chanjuan replied.
"Do you want it?"
"want."
"for you."
"What are you two doing here?" Nanfeng couldn't help but speak.
"You're looking for your heavenly book, what do you care about us?" the fat man answered.
"We are all common people, and we like these things." Zhuge Chanjuan said with a smile.
Nanfeng didn't bother to argue with the two of them, and carefully opened the lid of the sarcophagus on the left side.
There is a corpse in the sarcophagus. Judging from the clothes that have not completely decayed, it should be that of a woman.
"Stop looking. If you want gold and silver jewelry, there are plenty of them here." Nanfeng said.
As soon as the two heard this, they hurried over. As Nanfeng said, there were a large number of burial objects in this coffin, mostly jewelry, including seven or eight strings of hanging beads, six or seven bracelets, and many exquisite playthings. , there are small dolls carved from jade, and pearls the size of chickens, but the pearls have become discolored and mottled.
"What's in its mouth?" The fat man pointed to a jade object in the corpse's mouth.
As soon as the fat man stretched out his hand, Zhuge Chanjuan pushed him away, "Don't move."
Nanfeng turned to look at Zhuge Chanjuan. Zhuge Chanjuan pointed at the throat of the corpse, "This is a woman. Judging from the blackness of her throat bones, she must have been poisoned to death."
"Are you sure?" Nanfeng asked.
Zhuge Chanjuan nodded, picked up a hosta from the top of the coffin, and pushed aside the pile of rotten clothes, "This man should have been twenty-three or four years old when he died. He was poisoned, and the poison was crane crown red."
"Hedinghong?" Nanfeng frowned. Hedinghong has nothing to do with the crane bird. It is a red poison. Because the color is similar to the crane's top, it is named Hedinghong. This substance is highly poisonous and will soon be poisoned. It is difficult to rescue, and the poisoned person will be very painful.
"Yes, this girl has never given birth before." Zhuge Chanjuan said.
The fat man was very curious, "Can you see this?"
"What's the point?" Zhuge Chanjuan said proudly, "I can also see that this girl used rouge and gouache a lot in the past, and ate more meat, and her body was very turbid."
Seeing the suspicious look on the fat man's face, Zhuge Chanjuan picked up the head in the coffin and pointed at its cheekbones, "It's white elsewhere and gray here. This is the result of lead and mercury blush remaining over time."
When the fat man nodded, Zhuge Chanjuan put down the skull again, took the humerus of her arm and broke it off the edge of the sarcophagus, pointing to the broken stubble, "Meat can replenish blood and qi. If you eat meat regularly, the bone marrow will be full and the medullary canal will be thick. If you eat vegetarian food all year round, your qi and blood will be weak. There is less bone marrow and the medullary canal is narrow.”
"Awesome, you should become a widower." The fat man gave Zhuge Chanjuan a thumbs up.
Nanfeng continued, "Everything has pros and cons. Meat contains a lot of turbid qi. Although it nourishes blood qi, it also adds turbid qi, which is not good for practice. However, it is not good to just be a vegetarian. Insufficient blood qi will shorten your life. This scale is difficult to measure. "
"Look at how knowledgeable my little man is." Zhuge Chanjuan smiled.
"So shameless." The fat man smiled.
Zhuge Chanjuan didn't take it seriously and looked at Nanfeng, "Have you finished reading?"
Nan Feng nodded.
With his permission, Zhuge Chanjuan went to get the things buried in the coffin. The fat man also reached out and said, "Give me a few, give me a few."
"What do you want it for? This is for women."
"Give it to my wife."
"It's unlucky to take something from a dead person. Why are you a girl so vulgar?" Nanfeng shook his head helplessly.
"Husband, I am in good health and tired, please help me." Zhuge Chanjuan murmured, pretending to be weak, and after saying this, she asked, "Isn't this vulgar?"
Nanfeng frowned, and the fat man laughed, "Hahaha, just a few days after you came out of Huazi's Nest, you are so elegant that you think it's too vulgar."
"Give this to me."
"You have it all, give it to me."
"Guess the game, whoever wins gets it."
"Okay, come."
Nanfeng thought the two were making trouble but couldn't stop them, so he went to the east and opened the sarcophagus on the right side. Inside was also the bones of a woman and a large number of burial objects.
"How old was this person when he died, and what was the cause of death?" Nanfeng waved his hand and called Zhuge Chanjuan over.
Zhuge Chanjuan went over to check it out, "She was not very old either. She was not poisoned. She died of being stabbed with a sharp weapon."
The fat man also came over, "It seems that the boy named Gao was not a good person in his previous life. He lived and drank wildly and even killed people to be buried with him when he died."
Since no tortoise shell was found in the coffin, Nanfeng walked towards the coffin in the middle.
Fatty and Zhuge Chanjuan were dividing the jewelry in the coffin again.
"Why do you need so much gold and silver jewelry?" Nanfeng was not very happy.
"It's okay to give it as a gift." Zhuge Chanjuan said casually.
"Be careful, I want to open the master's coffin." Nanfeng reminded.
When the two heard the sound, they stopped taking it and moved to Nanfeng's left and right sides, waiting for him to open the coffin.
"What will be inside?" The fat man was very curious.
"Gao Pingsheng was an immortal from the Immortal Family. Even if he became an Earth Immortal, there would be no bones left behind. There must be some utensils he used during his lifetime in the coffin, and the tortoise shell should be among them." Nanfeng opened the coffin while speaking. build.
After the coffin lid was lifted, the three of them could see clearly what was inside the coffin. Nanfeng guessed half of it right. There was indeed a piece of tortoise shell in the coffin, but there was also a corpse in the coffin...
