Among the many tombs I know and have seen, this tomb is probably second to none in terms of airtightness alone.

Some people say that the ancient Egyptians were the most advanced in this technology. Their pyramids are a miracle and difficult to copy.

But for me, a ceremonial officer, that kind of technology is really not that good. Whether it's making mummies or using the principle of leverage to lift huge rocks, they are all tricks that our ancestors failed to do well. However, the Chinese people

It is restrained, and it is important not to expose one's wealth. Most of the tombs are hidden, not as public as the pyramids, with such a big stone lump standing there, like a delicate and frail girl standing in cool clothes and posing among a group of sturdy men.

Isn’t it tempting to scream tomb robbers all over the world? Really speaking, their only outstanding feature lies in their endless and hard-to-prevent black magic. For example, the most famous Pyramid of Khufu, anyone who climbs to the top

, and in the end, all of them rolled down in a hurry and died.

Perhaps due to professional reasons, I have always been paranoid that China is a country that has dominated the world for nearly twenty centuries, and most of its technologies were the most brilliant at that time, including the sealing technology of tombs.

Like the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, even modern people cannot excavate it under relatively safe conditions, or like the Qianling Mausoleum where Emperor Gaozong and Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty slept, the tombs are so strong that even bombs cannot blow them open. These can be said to be the result of tomb sealing technology.

Outstanding.

I don’t know much about the inside story of the First Emperor’s Mausoleum. The tomb official did participate in the design, but the ancestor who participated went to accompany the First Emperor and left no records. I dare not pat my chest and say anything, but do

I know the overall structure of the tomb. In fact, the structural sketch left by the ancestor who designed the tomb is still in my home. I am very knowledgeable. In a sense, the sealing technology of this tomb is

It really surpasses the Qianling Mausoleum. Ninety percent of the materials are super-strength black steel. The further inside, the better the sealing. Even if it takes nearly an hour to open the main tomb chamber, when we actually get inside,

Still feeling bursts of chest tightness and shortness of breath...

This shows that this tomb has almost completely maintained a vacuum state for nearly a thousand years!

However, when we experienced a brief period of discomfort and used the light of a flashlight to clearly see the situation in the tomb, the previous shock was immediately buried and disappeared without a trace.

Nothing else, just because we saw a more impactful scene!!

There was no gloomy atmosphere in the tomb as expected, nor were there any luxurious utensils, not even... not even a coffin!!

What I saw before my eyes was lush greenery, with countless branches hanging down from above my head, as if I had walked into a primeval dense forest.

To be precise, there is only one tree in the main tomb!!

However, this tree is so huge, its trunk is like an angry dragon, and its diameter may be more than ten meters. It is said that the height of such a thick tree is immeasurable, but it is only a few meters high, and the top of the branches is

After reaching the top of the tomb, it stopped growing. Countless paper strips as thick as arms exploded from the top of the canopy, and finally hung down. The branches spread out in the middle, and finally occupied and wrapped the entire tomb chamber.

The moment we stepped into the tomb, we were directly surrounded by this giant tree.

Lao Baisu has always been known for being well-informed, but at this moment, his mouth is wide open, and his expression is as if he has seen a ghost. He keeps mumbling to himself without stopping: "Oh my god... this... is this still called a tomb?"

"Unheard of..."

Brother Yaozi also let out a sigh of relief. After he came to his senses, he pushed me slightly and asked, "Jingzhe, what do you think this means? Although I go to graves a lot, such strange things happen.

I’ve never seen it before!! It’s obviously the main tomb, but there’s no coffin, not even a dead person, it’s just a weird tree!”

Compared to them, I was not that frightened. There are some handbooks left by my ancestors at home. There are countless tombs recorded in them, and there are countless weird ones. Although I have never seen them, I have heard about them a lot.

It can also improve some immunity...

Fortunately, among the many strange tombs in my memory, there are indeed a few that have something to do with the scene in front of me.

After thinking for a moment, I said: "In the past, in some remote and desolate places, there were always some weird and unruly folk customs. They were not completely nonsense, but were somewhat sophisticated. For example, cutting a tree into a coffin was probably a way of finding a coffin after death.

A very thick tree, hollowed out the inside of the trunk, and then placed the deceased inside.

Although both have the word "tree", this burial method is completely different from tree burial. Tree burial involves burying human ashes under a tree, which are completely different things.

As far as I know, this kind of burial method often appears in some places with very dangerous geographical patterns. In these places, the water and soil do not support people, but harm them. According to the Yin and Yang family, it means that the five elements are out of balance and the earthy atmosphere is too heavy, so after death

, can’t be buried in the ground, cut the tree into a coffin, which also uses the technique of the five elements to restrain the earth. The tree restrains the earth, so the earth cannot corrode the tree, and people can sleep peacefully when they lie in it!!”

"So, you mean...this giant tree is the coffin?"

Brother Yaozi asked, and seeing me nodding, he added: "But, what you said about cutting a tree into a coffin is to restrain the rustic. What is the purpose of this?"

"Of course it's also to restrain rusticity."

I couldn't help laughing and said: "Old people always like to scold young people for not knowing how high the sky is. Now that technology has developed, people really know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is. However, even though the sky is high, you can reach it and even leap over it."

, The earth is not as thick as the sky is high, but human beings have only dug up a small amount of it. Compared with the earth that carries everything, although the sea water is deep, it is just a big bubble on the earth. Therefore, even in such a dangerous place,

Earth energy is still everywhere.

Such an evil thing as the Jade Bone Corpse must be destroyed by heaven and earth because of the harmony of heaven and earth. Hiding in this place, heaven cannot punish it, but earth can destroy it. I think it is probably because I am worried about being affected by the earth's energy.

, that’s why the Di people used such a weird burial method, just to calm down the earth’s energy, which is equivalent to a sea-fixing needle!”

Lao Bai hurriedly took the opportunity to interject and asked: "So, the person here is Yang Guifei?"

"As always, it's hard to say!"

I said: "The Bamboo Tomb itself is not big. With such a towering tree standing here, it can definitely control the place. Concubine Yang no longer has to hide in the tree. As long as she is in this tomb, she can go anywhere."

Can be stable..."

When I saw him, I still wanted to ask. I waved my hands repeatedly and gave so many gestures that I couldn’t even explain them. To be able to say this is because I stand on the shoulders of giants. I have a high starting point. I have all the experiences of the ritual officials of the past generations in my mind.

Looking back, we can see the thousands of years of funerals in China. Following these experiences, we can always tell a story no matter what it is. But if we go deeper, it is deliberately making things difficult for me.

At this time, my master suddenly moved. He had been standing at the door of the tomb looking back and forth without saying a word, just listening to me. Now he suddenly made a move and went straight to the tree trunk. I was shocked. This

The tree is so weird. I have never heard of it, let alone seen it. Who knows if it may be dangerous, but before I could warn him, he had already walked to the trunk, stretched out his hand and patted the trunk gently.

The sound was very muffled and I couldn't hear what was going on.

Immediately, he carefully inspected the tree trunk for a long time before turning back and saying, "There are no traces of dissection."

Lao Bai murmured that the work was too perfect and my master didn't notice it? All the signs in this ancient tomb show that this Di Ren country is very good at seamless splicing, but my master is not good at this.

I had a hand at home, and the masters didn’t have the skills of a plenary session, so they pushed me and asked me to go up and have a look. At any rate, my hands were trained in boy’s skills...

Before he finished speaking, my master suddenly said three words slowly and forcefully: "Fangzi Coffin!"

Fangzi coffin?

I had never heard of such a name for this burial method of cutting a tree into a coffin. I immediately understood that my master was probably talking about this tree. Seeing that he had been under the canopy of the tree for a long time without any danger, I hurriedly followed him.

I stretched out my hand and gently rubbed the tree trunk. Sure enough, there were no artificial traces on it, so I asked my master, is Fangzi the name of this kind of tree?

My master shook his head and said: "The name of the tree is Ruomu, and its branches can be used as coffins. Therefore, the branches are also called Fangzi. Fangzi itself means coffin. For the sake of smoothness, everyone simply calls it Fangzi Coffin."

"

"Master, are you sure it's Ruomu Zhi?"

I looked weird and said softly: "Is there really Ruomu in this world?"

To put it more fashionably, I am a huge fan of my master, and I always believe everything he says, but this time I really... can’t believe it!

Perhaps most people have never heard of Ruomu, but nine out of ten Chinese people must have heard of the Fusang tree. The legendary Eastern sacred tree, on which lived the ten children of Xi He and Emperor Jun, also

It was the three-legged golden crow, which was finally shot by Hou Yi "biubiu". This is the story of Hou Yi shooting the sun, a story that even a child can tell fluently.

Ruomu, just like Fusang, is a first-class sacred tree in the world. Fusang is in the East China Sea. It is said that it is the starting point of Xihe's control of the sun, which is where the sun rises. Ruomu is in the west, where the sun sets.

!!

Regarding my question, my master just asked me, have you ever believed in the existence of ghosts and gods?

Then, I couldn't say a word.

"Myths and legends all have their origins."

My master sighed: "The ancients would be full of awe for some extraordinarily huge things or incomprehensible powers. They would call them sacred and pass them down from generation to generation. They have long been passed down as mysterious and mysterious. In fact, these things are not that mysterious in the first place."

It’s an exaggeration. There are still such things as Ruomu. My master traveled all over the world in the past and once saw a Ruomu in Kunlun, which was a hundred meters high and grew in a canyon that never saw light all year round. He once told me about this in detail.

Describing the situation at that time, he also said that Ruomu's paper strips were extremely thick, and the structure inside was hollow like bamboo. Sometimes it also stored water. The locals discovered that not only the inside of the trunk was hollow, but also the branches.

It also had the same structure. One section was just big enough to hold a person, so they were dried and made into a coffin. At first glance, it looked like a huge bamboo tube. This kind of coffin was called Fangzi coffin.

In fact, Ruomu is just a relatively spiritual tree. It is extremely rare and does not have any magical power. If it must be said to be unique, it is that it has very strong vitality. When the branches are cut, as long as they are not exposed to light or dried,

When planted on the ground, it will take root and sprout. Unfortunately, it only grows slowly. The tree we see is probably made of Ruomu branches that were used to bury the deceased before they were dried and placed in the tomb. It took thousands of years to grow into what it is.

of."

Bang!

With a sword chant, my master pulled out the ancient sword and sneered, saying since he was not sure who was in the coffin, he would split it open and take a look. He then swept the tree trunk with his sword.

His ancient sword was an ancestral weapon of the Qingwei Dao. It had been passed down for many years, but it was as sharp as the Baipi Dao. In his hand, it exerted its due power. With one sweep of the sword, there was a "click"

, a huge crack was split in the thick tree trunk, and a light green liquid "gurgled" came out from it, and the fishy smell hit the nostrils for a while!

"Oh My God……"

Brother Yao Zi held his nose and backed away a little, and said in a voiceless voice: "This is the smelly water soaked in wet corpses. The water is green in color, and the corpses inside have most likely changed!"

My master did not take action again. He squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the green water gushing from the tree trunk, and suddenly said: "It's not Yang Guifei. She has been buried for more than a thousand years. She has already been completed. Her jade bones have become the weather, and her evil nature has faded away.

That can’t be the case, it’s Samael in the tree!”

After saying this, he shouted sternly: "Jingzhe, hurry up and find the tomb door. Let's leave here. Things may change if we wait too long!"
