Daily life in Kaifeng dormitory

Before Murong Chang could finish his love words, he shut up himself.Ni Yexin, who was standing opposite him, stopped talking, and closed her eyes tightly, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and the trembling frequency was quite fast.

Speaking of which, Ni Yexin's eyelashes seem to be quite long.

But Murong Daxia is definitely not thinking about this issue in his mind now, Murong Changqing's expression changed, and he said, "What are you doing with your eyes closed?"

Ni Yexin opened a small gap in his right eye, as if he was peeking at Murong Changqing, and said, "I dare not watch this kind of scene, in fact, I am also very shy."

After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes firmly again, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up, wishing he could grin to the base of his ears.

Murong Changqing's face turned blue, and he said, "What's the scene? Open your eyes for me, don't close them."

Ni Yexin's eyelashes quivered twice quickly, and said, "Don't you want to cover my mouth with your mouth?"

Murong Changqing clenched his fists and said, "Of course not!"

Ni Yexin immediately said: "Then your words don't count!"

Murong Changqing: "..."

Murong Changqing almost raised his hand to grab Ni Yexin's pipa bone, but he abruptly withdrew his hand. He was not afraid that Ni Yexin's pipa bone would be broken for a while, but because he was afraid that he had just met Ni Yexin. Shoulder, the other party will say even more strange words.

For example... why did they have a skin-to-skin relationship... something like that.

Hero Murong immediately thought of something strange, his face changed several times, and finally his arms drooped.

The corn and popcorn hid far away, they both tilted their heads to look at Ni Yexin and Murong Changqing, they really didn't know what they were doing.

Murong Chang was discouraged, flung his sleeves and wanted to leave again, he suddenly felt that he was really full to come out to talk to Ni Yexin, every time he talked to Ni Yexin, he would never be able to please him.

Ni Yexin saw that Murong Changqing was about to leave, so he quickly ran over at a brisk pace, blocking Murong Changqing's way, and said, "Hero Murong, I have something serious to say!"

"You?" Murong Changqing looked at him suspiciously.

Ni Yexin said: "Because it is getting late, the night is dark and the wind is high, and there is no one around, why don't we go to the yamen!"

"Go to the yamen?" Murong Chang was taken aback for a moment, thinking that Ni Yexin was going to talk to him again, but he didn't expect that what he said was indeed serious.

Murong Chang said puzzledly: "What are you doing in the yamen?"

Ni Yexin said: "Naturally, I'm looking at the mummy sacrifice."

In ancient times, people were not used as sacrifices. After all, in the past, slaves were even worse than livestock, and they were slaughtered by others. However, it was really rare in the Song Dynasty. Although there were many murderers in the Song Dynasty An order until death, but killing for life is the general principle.

Ni Yexin had never seen such a sacrificial offering, nor had she seen a mummy. After hearing Feng Qian's story, she was really curious about this case.

Murong gave him a sideways look, and said, "Now? In the morning tomorrow, won't the Yamen's arresters take you there?"

Ni Yexin nodded and said, "Yes, but we have to wait all night, it's a waste of time. And don't you want to go and see the snake pattern earlier?"

Speaking of the snake pattern totem, Murong Changqing frowned, obviously moved by Ni Yexin's words.

Ni Yexin tugged Murong Changqing's sleeve immediately, and the two left Feng's house immediately and went to the yamen.

The two of them didn't even leave the main entrance, they jumped over the wall and left Feng's house. The town is very small, and they arrived at the Yamen after a short walk.

It was getting dark now, and there was no one inside or outside the yamen, but there were a few rooms with lights on, probably the officials and police officers were living in them.

Although Ni Yexin's martial arts are far inferior to Murong Changqing's, it's easy to do this kind of thing. They jumped into the yamen, and no one can find out.

Murong Changqing was looking around with squinted eyes, wanting to see which room was the place where the mummy was placed.As he was watching, he felt Ni Yexin blowing into his ear.

Murong Chang was taken aback, and said in a low voice, "What are you doing?"

"Hero Murong, your ears are red." Ni Yexin said, "Does it itch when you breathe in?"

"Shut up..." Murong Changqing was almost suffocated by himself.

Ni Yexin whispered again: "Actually, I think there is another reason to come to see the mummy at night."

"What?" Murong Changqing asked curiously.

Ni Yexin put on a serious expression and said, "Of course it's because there are only the two of us at night. Tomorrow, during the day, there will be arrests and official errands. It's also Chi Long and Zhao Yin's. We can't be left alone. They are too in the way."

Murong Changqing: "..."

It was only now that Murong Changqing calmly raised his hand and brushed his ear, feeling that it was still very cold and itchy.Then he said blankly: "I'll go back later, and I'll tell Chi Long and Zhao Yin for you, you said they were in the way."

Ni Yexin smiled and said: "Actually, I think Chi Long is not smart, but he has already found himself in the way. Otherwise, he would not have dragged Zhao Yin and ran away that day."

Murong Changqing suddenly recalled some bad memories...

Murong Changqing realized that he had fallen into Ni Yexin's trap again, so he changed the subject stiffly and said, "Where is the corpse?"

There is no room dedicated to storing corpses in the yamen, and each room looks similar.

Ni Yexin raised her hand and pointed, "It's definitely this one."

Murong Changqing was full of confidence when he heard what he said, and looked along the pointer, and immediately didn't know what to say. He now very much agrees with Ni Yexin's opinion.

It was the most corner room, and it looked particularly inconspicuous in the dark, but there were two yellow talisman-like things pasted on the door of the room, probably not tightly pasted, and it was "sparse" when blown by the wind. It's ringing, it looks weird and it sounds weird too.

Murong Changqing couldn't help but raised his hand and pressed his forehead. Ni Yexin had already walked over, stretched out his hand and pulled the yellow talisman on the door, and said with a smile: "Hero Murong, is this for suppressing evil? Or exorcising evil spirits?" of?"

"I'm not a Taoist priest, how do I know." Murong Chang said affectionately, raised his hand, tore off those things, and threw them aside.

Ni Yexin couldn't help laughing, and said: "Early tomorrow morning, someone saw that the yellow talisman had fallen off, and probably thought there was a fake corpse inside! Would it scare people?"

Murong Chang ignored him, opened the door and walked in. It was dark inside, with almost nothing in it, and a big box was placed almost in the middle.Next to the box is a table, which is not big, and there are some autopsy tools on it, but those tools are neatly placed, and they don't look like they have been used.

For a basically inexperienced operator, it's no wonder that he has no clue when performing an autopsy on a mummy.

They didn't have anything like a lantern, so they could only observe the whole room through the moonlight squeezed in through the cracks in the doors and windows.

Murong Changqing had already walked to the big box in two steps. The box didn't have a lid, but now a lid was added with a yellow talisman on it. It seems that the people in the yamen added the lid because they were afraid that the mummified corpse would crawl out.

Murong Changqing was about to reach out to open the lid, but when he looked back, he found that Ni Yexin was still standing at the door, not knowing what he was looking at.

Murong Changqing frowned and said, "Come here quickly, why are you dawdling? You didn't say you wanted to see the corpse, but now you dawdle, are you afraid?"

Ni Yexin just came over and said: "Hero Murong, you don't understand now. You say you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. The light here is too dark, and your eyes are not used to the light here. You can't see clearly. Look at it." It’s useless to watch. To get used to it, it takes at least half a cup of tea, so at this time, I’ll take a look at the environment here.”

Murong Chang couldn't help but give Ni Yexin a blank look, then without saying a word, he lifted the lid of the box by himself.

The big box was very big, and after the lid was lifted, it stood beside it. Murong Changqing immediately held his breath, took a step back, and covered his nose with his hand.

Standing behind him, Ni Yexin also smelled an indescribable smell, and couldn't help sniffing hard.

Murong Changqing turned around and pinched the back of Ni Yexin's neck. Ni Yexin almost cried out, but Murong Changqing blocked her mouth and nose.

Murong Chang said affectionately: "Don't die, don't breathe."

Ni Yexin uttered "huh" twice. Murong Changqing covered his mouth and nose, and he was speechless. He quickly reached out and grabbed his hand, pulled his hand down, and said, "Murong Hero , it’s not poisonous, don’t worry.”

The weird smell is really bad and makes people feel uncomfortable after smelling it.But Murong Changqing tried to exercise his internal energy, and there was indeed nothing unusual.

Ni Yexin looked at Murong Changqing's hand away with reluctance, and then he said: "Hero Murong, take a few deep breaths."

"What are you doing?" Murong Changqing disliked this smell very much, for fear of getting it on himself, he didn't want to take a deep breath at all.

Ni Yexin said: "You have to smell it carefully, does it smell like pepper?"

Murong Chang frowned affectionately, and looked at him like an idiot.

Ni Yexin said: "I once read some books that introduced the embalming of corpses. Because the internal organs of the corpse are easy to rot, it is easier to preserve the corpse after digging out the internal organs. Then dry the corpse, just like bacon, so The corpse can be preserved for a longer period of time. Then, some special mixed spices can be placed around the corpse, such as prickly ash, which has a very strong smell, so as to achieve the effect of preventing insects and embalming.”

Ni Yexin gave Murong Changqing a science introduction with a smile, and Murong Changqing looked at him no longer like an idiot, but it was not much better.

Murong Chang said affectionately: "I don't want to know how to make a mummy. Go and see the corpse quickly, and then go and see where the snake pattern totem is in the box."

Because of the smell of the corpse, Murong Changqing didn't want to get close to that corpse at all.

Ni Yexin did not refute, but took two more steps, then leaned forward to look into the big box.

As soon as he raised his head, he suddenly took a deep breath of "Ho!".

Murong Changqing was startled, and immediately rushed over, saying, "What's wrong?"

Ni Yexin patted his chest and said, "It's all right, I was just startled by the corpse. It was the first time I saw it, and it was really scary."

Murong Changqing: "..."

Because the corpse was fully dehydrated, it really couldn't see its original appearance at all, just like a skeleton with skin.

Ni Yexin looked at it intently, and said, "Did you know? After the corpse has been embalmed, it is almost impossible to determine the time of death."
