A comprehensive overview of tombs: starting with the Yellow Weasel's Tomb

Upon hearing this, Hu Bayi and his two companions, who hadn't paid any attention before, immediately stared at Bai Jing, somewhat unable to believe what they had just heard.

A few thousand yuan is less than ten thousand yuan, but that's several thousand yuan?

When did several thousand become worthless?

You should know that nowadays, having 10,000 yuan is a synonym for being rich.

Even in Beijing, a three-courtyard siheyuan (traditional courtyard house) can be bought for at most ten thousand yuan.

How come it's worthless in Bai Jing's mouth?

Before Bai Jing could react, the fat man immediately shoved into the coffin and took out the two pieces of ancient jade.

Bai Jing was also taken aback by the fat man's actions.

Immediately afterwards, the fat man said, "You have money and don't care about this, but Lao Hu and I do."

After saying that, he stuffed the ancient jade into his pocket.

Seeing this, Bai Jing simply sighed, shook his head, and said nothing more.

But at that moment, the air inside the tomb suddenly felt much colder.

Immediately afterward, Yingzi shouted, "Brother Bai, Brother Hu, look! The color of the candle has changed!"

Bai Jing and Hu Bayi quickly looked towards the candle.

Then I noticed that the flame on the candle had changed color at some point.

A normal candle flame should be orange, but at this moment, the candle flame has turned green.

The fat man noticed it too, but still forced a smile and said, "It's okay, didn't Lao Bai say that as long as the candle doesn't go out, it's not a big problem."

However, as soon as the fat man finished speaking, everyone felt a biting cold wind, and then the candle went out.

"."

In an instant, everyone present, except Bai Jing, had their hearts in their throats.

Yingzi almost cried when she saw this: "Fatty, you're such a jinx!"

The fat man grumbled and said, "What a piece of junk candle! It goes out as soon as the wind blows. It's rubbish."

Hu Bayi glanced around the tomb chamber and felt a chill run down his spine.

Immediately afterwards, Hu Bayi said, "Fatty, put the things back."

This was the first time Hu Bayi had encountered such a situation. He could only think that the tomb owner was angry, so he quickly told Fatty to put the things back in the coffin to see if he could appease the tomb owner's anger.

Bai Jing, however, was staring intently at the corpse of the tomb's occupant inside the coffin.

Suddenly, the tomb owner in the coffin opened his eyes and slowly tried to sit up.

Bai Jing stood behind the head of the tomb owner, calmly watching the tomb owner slowly get up.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Jing spoke.

"Whitey, get to it! Eliminate all the Gu worms inside this corpse!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Pi, who was originally standing on Bai Jing's shoulder, immediately jumped to the edge of the coffin, then tilted his head back, opened his mouth, and spat out a red pill.

Hu Bayi and his two companions were startled by Bai Jing's words and immediately turned to look at him.

But then, the three of them noticed that at this moment, the tomb...

The master was sitting in the coffin, his gaze fixed on Hu Bayi and the other two.

For a moment, their eyes met, and it was very awkward.

Yingzi was the first to react, immediately screaming, "Ah!!!"

Upon hearing Yingzi's scream, Hu Bayi and Fatty immediately reacted, their bodies jerking as they tried to retreat.

Bai Jing ignored the reactions of Hu Bayi and the other two, and instead observed the movements of the tomb's occupant.

The moment he removed the mask from the tomb owner's face, he noticed that the tomb owner's condition was not right.

The tomb owner's reaction at this moment is not that he has risen from the dead; it is likely that someone had administered some kind of secret medicine made from Gu worms into his body before his death.

Once this secret medicine enters the body of the tomb's occupant and the coffin is sealed, the body will remain intact even after hundreds or thousands of years inside.

However, once the coffin containing the tomb's occupant is opened and air enters the coffin, the Gu worms that have been made into secret medicine will hatch in the air.

The eerie wind that blew out the candles was generated by the Gu worms hatching from the body of the tomb's occupant.

This is why the body of the tomb owner appears to rise from the dead, as if it has come back to life.

Bai Jing saw this opportunity and immediately had Bai Pi activate the little white worm to enter the tomb owner's body and kill the Gu worm inside.

Soon, following Bai Pi's movements, countless small white insects converged on Bai Pi and headed towards the tomb owner.

Because of Bai Pi's manipulation, the little white worms did not harm the corpse in the slightest, but they quickly crawled into the body of the tomb owner through the seven orifices, including the mouth and nose.

The tomb owner, who was originally preparing to stand up by supporting himself on both sides of the coffin with his arms, paused at this moment.

Then he sat motionless in the coffin.

It is unknown what happened inside the tomb owner's body, but about several tens of seconds passed.

But in the eyes of Hu Bayi and his two companions, those few dozen seconds felt like an eternity.

In the blink of an eye, tiny white worms slowly crawled out of the body of the deceased.

Bai Jing knew that the matter was over.

Speaking of which, the white man is the most proficient in illusion and Gu worms.

White skin can pull an adult into the illusion he has set up in an instant.

In addition to the illusion, the little white worms transformed from the white-skinned red cinnabar are most adept at meticulous destruction. Once they enter someone's body, they can quickly destroy the ecosystem within that person.

This time was no different. The white worms entered the body of the tomb owner and killed all the Gu worms that were manipulating the tomb owner to rise from the dead, thus preventing the tomb owner from taking further action.

Soon, countless small white worms returned to the Crimson Pill. When the last small white worm entered the White Skin's body, the White Skin swallowed the Crimson Pill.

Then Bai Pi jumped onto Bai Jing's shoulder and started squeaking.

Upon hearing Bai Pi's voice, Bai Jing laughed and said, "Okay, I'll give you an extra meal after we go out."

Hearing Bai Jing's assurance, Bai Pi stopped making a fuss.

Bai Jing looked into the coffin and saw a bronze button inside.

Bai Jing seemed to have guessed something, reached into the coffin, and took out the bronze button.

Meanwhile, Hu Bayi and his two companions on the other side finally came to their senses.

The fat man muttered, "Is this little thing really that powerful?"

Although Hu Bayi and Yingzi didn't speak, they both swallowed hard.

Today's events have had a huge impact on them.

Chapter 132 The Identity of the Tomb Owner

Ignoring the reactions of others, Bai Jing stepped forward and gently laid the tomb owner back down, so that he lay in the coffin as before.

Seeing that it was almost identical to when he had just opened the coffin, Bai Jing nodded in satisfaction. Then he took out the bronze button he had just taken from under the tomb owner and examined it, discovering that it was engraved with several characters in Jurchen script and Chinese seal script.

It was probably because the copper button had been stored in a sealed space. Although there was some rust on the copper button, Bai Jing was still able to see the characters on it.

'Yanzhan Toad Seal'

After seeing the words clearly, Bai Jing was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the tomb owner again.

He already knows.

Based on the content of the murals, it should be pretty close to the truth.

The tomb's occupant was likely Guo Hama, a famous general of the Jin Dynasty, whose family produced many outstanding archers.

During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of Jin, he and his elder brother Guo Lu were both recruited into the army because of their archery skills.

In the early years of Xingding, Guo Luda was appointed as the prefect of Pingliang Prefecture and the governor of Huizhou due to his outstanding military achievements. He was promoted one rank and was given the surname Yanzhan. He was ordered to guard Huizhou, and Guo Hama naturally followed his brother in the army.

Later, Guo Hama repeatedly made military achievements and was highly valued by Emperor Aizong of Jin.

Therefore, Guo Hama spent his entire life in the Jin court. Even three years after the fall of the Jin Dynasty, Guo Hama remained trapped in the isolated city, fighting until the very last moment, and finally died by self-immolation.

The tomb owner's body clearly showed signs of being scorched by flames. Combined with the murals and bronze buttons, this must undoubtedly be Guo Hama.

As an aside, according to the official seal system of the Jin Dynasty, official seals were made of different materials according to different statuses, and were divided into four levels: gold, jade, silver, and bronze.

The highest-ranking gold seal could only be used by the emperor, because the name of the Jin Dynasty was "Jin," so the gold seal held the highest status in the Jin Dynasty. At the same time, the gold seal was carved with a dragon shape, which was called the dragon knob, and was inscribed with the seal of the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty.

Below the gold seal is the jade seal. In the Jin Dynasty, very few people could actually use jade seals. Only the crown prince, empress, empress dowager and other people who were called imperial nobles could not use jade to make official seals.

For example, the crown prince's seal was made of jade with a tortoise-shaped knob, and inscribed with "Treasure of the Crown Prince".

Then it was made of silver, cast from silver, and was usually used by royalty or other members of the imperial family, such as princes.

Its shape is that of a camel-shaped knob, and it is called a 'seal', such as the seal of King X.

Finally, there is the bronze seal. In the Jin Dynasty, even if you were a powerful first-rank official, as long as you were not a member of the imperial family, you would use a bronze seal.

The bronze seal knob has no animal design; it is simply a rectangular plate with the characters "XXX Seal" written on it in Jurchen or Han script.
