Chapter 198 – Snowy Mountain Golden Body Mummy
We stood on the ice and looked down, it seems that this ice bucket is not a product of nature, the frozen bodies in the ice wall, are in a mysterious pose, standing low looking down at the slanting bottom, the fat man looked after the laugh and scolded: “dying still do not forget to look down to pick up the wallet.”
I waved my hand to them, don’t discuss, have to hurry down to save Han Shuna up, no matter how to look at, this ice cave is permeated with a very heavy evil atmosphere, never a good place.
So the crowd rushed to put down the rope, I copied up the ice chisel tugging the climbing rope to slide into the ice cave, followed by Shirley Yang also followed down, the two of us could not care about looking around the ice wall in the dead, hurriedly check Han Shuna’s injuries, there is no obvious physical trauma, that is, the face of the ice slipped a few shallow scratches, the person is just unconscious in the past.
I took out the saltpeter, in her nose, Han Shuna immediately sneezed, awake, I asked her whether there is no injury? Han Shuna shook her head, it turned out that she just shoes loose, low re-tied, has been and the crowd pulled away from the distance, when the guys see finally found the top of the dragon, are very excited, so for a moment did not notice that someone fell out of the team, Han Shuna rushed up, deviated from the route, a foot step through the ice shells fell in here, where the black huffing and puffing, on the flashlight to light up, and then ready to send a signal to call for help, but did not wait for the openings, on the I found that the surrounding area is full of ancient ice corpses, although she usually contacted a lot of ancient corpses, single in this special environment, no thought preparation, then was stunned fainted.
I see Han Shuna is not injured, put down the heart, held up the wolf-eye flashlight to look around the body in the ice, not like in the dedication of the King’s Tomb in the Heavenly Palace to see the bronze, these bodies may be alive when frozen in the ice wall, fresh as life, inside a layer next to a layer, stood full, it is difficult to estimate the specific number of corpses in the ice, but can be seen, no less than dozens of, although dressed in ancient clothes and crowns, but not the devil’s clothing. But it is not the costume of the magic country.
Shirley Yang to Han Shuna hooked on the “fast hanging”, ready to let Uncle Ming fat man, in the above will Han Shuna pull up, the two low ready, suddenly all exclaimed, respectively, backward leap away, as if to see the ground has a poisonous snake.
I was busy looking down, with a flashlight on the ground level smooth ice, only to see a hazy black figure inside, curled up human body, shrunken into a ball, horizontal inverted frozen in the ground in the ice, cold eyes, may also think it is a frozen oversized shrimp.
I said to Shirley Yang, “What’s so scary about this? It’s just frozen dead people, but how did it strike such a strange pose?”
Shirley Yang shrugged and said, “I didn’t even see what was underneath, I was just startled by Sister Han.”
Han Shuna said, “Just now when I took a look at the figure down here, it seemed to be curled up in a ball, I thought of a fetus, but then I suddenly thought of how in the world there could be such a big fetus, so I jumped backward in fear.”
I let Han Shuna first go up, her specialty is ancient corpse identification, in this also can not help much help, can only add to the chaos, wait for her to go up I and Shirley Yang in the ice bucket discussed a few words, here may be the reincarnation of the religious Lord’s tomb, this buried with the evil god demon tower of the glacier, it must be the later generations of reincarnation believers in the eyes of the holy land, their successive generations of the patriarch of the believers, probably after death are also buried in this place, this ice bucket is one of the place! This curled up black shadow under the ground is probably one of the sect masters, these people around are the believers who accompany the burial, the glacier surrounded by the nine layers of the demon tower, and I don’t know how many of these ice cellar burials, it may be worthwhile to dig out the body of the sect masters under the ice, and see if there is any information in his burial goods.
Two people finished the discussion, also from the ice cellar climbed back to the top, the plan to the crowd said once again, we are now in the location, can be said to be the four snowy peaks of their respective glaciers convergence, forming a large and thick and deep “ice tongue”, here the terrain is uneven, the ice gully crevasses, due to the construction of the demon tower of the time Tantric Buddhism has not even been shaped! Because when the demon tower was built, the tantric sect had not even formed the theory of feng shui, that era is too old, so it is not possible to use the method of gold points, rather than looking for a needle in a haystack as in the ice tongue gradually check, it is better to dig this reincarnation of the religious master of the tomb, in order to determine the exact location of the demon tower.
Uncle Ming and other people do not have experience in this area, naturally how I how is, arrangements have been made, just now the ice bucket next to the insertion of a branch of the wind horse flag as a sign, on the ground to set up a tent, by Peter Huang and the guide is responsible for sentinel guards, to prevent the wolves to sneak attack, Uncle Ming and Han Shuna is responsible for the expedition’s food, I took Ah Xiang, Shirley Yang and Fatty, after eating, into the ice bucket to start work.
At this time it will be late, the distant forest, came a burst of wolves wailing howl, it seems that the king of the wolves also gathered wolves, trailing to the, I heard the wolf howl, remembered the Gemma military doctor that the green belly, hate to gnash your teeth, instructed the first one and other people to be careful to be on the lookout, and then moved the instruments, down into the ice cellar.
Uncle Ming then hung up a fluorescent light to illuminate the top, he is an old hand at dumping ancient corpses, and when he saw a corpse with such a bizarre posture under the ice, he was also hunting for it, and maybe this could dig out a valuable glacier crystal corpse, so he watched from the top with Han Shuna.
Bring Ah Xiang around, can be much more convenient than lighting candles, but Ah Xiang is very timid, in order to prevent her from being scared silly to speak, we still follow the old rules, in the southeast corner of the raw door, lit a tallow candle.
Fatty, as I said, filled the ginger juice in a pneumatic spray can, first gave the ice on the ground a few sprays, and then all that needed to be done was to slowly wait for it to penetrate.
Around the ice wall in the frozen corpses, are lowering their heads watching us to dig open the ice, just like a group of watchers in the crowd around us, not a word of cold stare, which makes people feel very uncomfortable, the fat man said that this is too fucking twisted, or we look for a piece of cloth to the ice around the wall are blocked, is really looking at the heart of the people hair ah.
I said to the fat man: “You are not a big girl, but also afraid of being looked at, you just as those dead bodies do not exist on the good ……” I said, but also feel that this ice bucket in the evil awesome, never seen this way of burial, and the owner of the tomb did not have a coffin, but also set the With a big shrimp child like frozen underneath, later on exactly what will dig up to a thing, really not good to say.
Shirley Yang probably saw that I was a little hesitant, said to me: “Reincarnation Sect retains a lot of cult traditions of the Devil’s Kingdom, in the Heroic King’s Rap Psalm, the Devil’s Kingdom is a country that worships the abyss and the cave, surrounded by the pallbearers, making the posture of looking down into the abyss, which probably has something to do with their religious beliefs, no need to make a big deal about it. ”
At this time the ginger juice has penetrated almost, we will use the ice chisel wind drill digging, ginger juice is the nemesis of the solid ice, ten thousand years of basalt ice can be solved, this ice is not much thick, not much time, digging off a square ice cover, and then there is no more ice underneath, we found that the swim bladder of the fish is sticking under the ice, and the body is wrapped in it.
A look at the body, everyone felt a few surprised, Ah Xiang scared all over the body shaking, Shirley Yang had to put her arms around, asked her if she found something? Ah Xiang shook her head, just felt that the corpse was too horrible.
I turned my head to look at the candle, normal burning, it seems that there is no problem, it is composed to watch the body exposed under the ice, did not break the ice before, what I saw was a black shadow, but then look, the body is very huge, the whole body is white, not necrophilia that kind of white hairs, like the whole body up a thick layer of hard cocoon, there are a few places where the white cocoon shells come off, revealing the inside of the golden light, it seems to be full of gold. Seems to be all gold.
The body hands and knees, curled up into a ball, this may also and reincarnation sect evil teachings related to the death will be reborn, so the dead will be posed as a return to the mother in the fetal posture.
Uncle Ming also saw clearly on it, “Wow thia, this is the snow mountain mummy ah, not good, not good, this snow mountain golden body mummy is worth more than a million ah …… only the age is too close, if a little longer than the glacier crystal corpse is also about the same.”
I looked up and asked Uncle Ming: “What is the snow mountain gold mummy?” For these “bone antiques”, none of us know Uncle Ming and his mistress in detail.
Uncle Ming in order to see more clearly, also down to the ice cellar, good in this ice bucket is more spacious, more than one person, the space will not seem too constricted, Uncle Ming holding a magnifying glass to see half a day, reach out in the white cocoon shell of the corpse and touch, add to add their own fingers: “No mistake, absolutely is the Snowy Mountains mummified body.”
This kind of body treatment is very complicated, first of all, the deceased will be placed in a specific posture, installed into the sarcophagus, filled with marsh salt inside, parked for about three months, waiting for the salt to be completely inhaled into all parts of the body, replacing all the water in the body, to be properly salted, and then apply a layer of cement-like material, this material by sandalwood powder, spices, soil, and a variety of medicines formulated.
Then this substance will gradually solidify and harden, all the body of all the concave or wrinkled parts, such as the eyes, cheeks, stomach, will expand on their own to form a natural and harmonious proportion, and then coated with a layer of gold lacquer skin, which is the golden body, and finally with a layer of marsh salt wrapped in a layer of only some of the religion’s Patriarch, the Lord of the Church is entitled to enjoy such treatment.
Fatty and I listened to the silly, did not expect the dumplings and such a complicated production process, Uncle Ming said let’s do it to move up the snowy mountain mummy, but we found that we could not move, the body is still under the ice, frozen into one, extremely strong, with a flashlight to the depths of the light, the ice under the ice seems to have a lot of things, but through the ice is not very clear.
So once again took out the spray bottle, the ginger juice sprayed on the ice, and so on for a while, it is estimated that almost, so an ice brazier hit down, not along the ice brazier pierced the ice, suddenly emerged a long column of huge blue fire, with can be pierced the bones of the ear of the sound of the whistling sound, straight from the deepest part of the ice bucket jumped up into the sky.
