Gluttonous canteen

Chapter 15. Schrödinger's cat

It was easy to determine the location of the drawer burial. Zhang Tao barely made any effort to bump his head against the south wall, and most of the outline of the head of the drawer coffin was already revealed.

The original burial style is very different from the majestic and solemn specifications of the Han and Tang tombs. According to modern standards, it is very simple, of course, it is considered a durable one according to the contemporary standard of "that small box is your forever home". Economical and applicable.

"You said this is a relic of prehistoric civilization?" While Zhang Tao was hiding beside him shaking his hair, Li Chuo curiously moved forward and carefully studied the carved patterns on the exposed coffin head.

He grew up in a lonely palace, and one of his few entertainments was to go to the inner mansion to watch various royal collections, and he also developed the tricky eyes of an archaeologist. Compared with the relics of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, the patterns on the heads of these coffins are a bit too exquisite.

"Well, yes. But I'm still at the stage of bold assumptions and careful verification. It would be easy if Wang Dun was there, and I can do carbon-14 testing based on my own body alone." Zhang Tao shook his head regretfully .

"..." Who can do a carbon-14 test with their own body, just brag, um, but the words of these old cousins ​​should be believed by some people.Li Chuo looked at Zhang Tao's uncle's face, and suddenly felt a sense of grievance as a young celebrity who had to get close to his godfather, although this year-end relationship was not just a generation behind.

"Don't you think the patterns carved on this stone are too exquisite for prehistoric civilization?" Because of his schooling, Li Chuo has been to museums several times with the activities organized by the school, whether it is the remains of the cavemen or the Hemudu culture. The ruins and handwork seem to have never reached such a finely crafted level.

"Hey, there are so many relics of prehistoric civilizations. How many have been dug up by modern people? At most, it's like a blind man trying to figure out an elephant. Didn't you read the scarf that someone dug it in the ancient tomb?"

Zhang Tao doesn't care much about Li Chuo's doubts. It seems that he appreciates this exquisite ancient civilization. At most, he is surprised that the kitten he just brought home will use cat litter by himself. There is nothing more .

"Boss, I've already told you that the picture is a P, can you stop always reposting on WeChat what Pacman is good for? Somewhere you found the truth about aliens in the Han Dynasty who don't wear underwear, etc. Marketing account?" Li Zi, who was doing odd jobs at the side, took the opportunity to express his dissatisfaction with the habits of middle-aged and elderly friends like Zhang Tao.

"Oh, is that so?" Zhang Tao looked at Lizi with a half-smile, the hand holding the head of the coffin shook slightly, there was a loud bang, and the cave vibrated violently a few times, the whole coffin without warning The ground was pulled out by Zhang Tao with his bare hands!

"Boss is mighty! Boss is handsome!" Li Zi kneeled when he disagreed with him, knelt down on the ground with a thud, walked forward a few steps, and hugged Zhang Tao's thigh.

Well, it is the material to become a great eunuch in the study. Li Chuo looked at the carp holding his thigh in relief, thinking secretly that after the success of the restoration plan, it would be quite good to leave a salary for the young man in the harem s position.

"Wow, this drawer is really useful." Zhang Tao seemed to be taken aback by the strength of his hands. In fact, he thought that he would need to use a shovel anyway. It seems that the long-term wet and rainy environment has already made the primitive man The layer of ancient cement that had been applied had been completely corroded, which allowed him to pull out the death drawer relatively easily, but his hand still held his strength. A little conversion would require as much pulling force as four horses.

Zhang Tao thought about it in his heart. It seems that the leader's appeal among the masses is quite good. Under the circumstances of such low productivity at that time, everyone could make such an exquisite and heavy coffin for him without hesitation.

"It's really a turn of wind and water. Is this the place where the body of the modern funeral parlor is stored?" Zhang Tao stretched out his hand to measure the length of the stone slab that was about ten centimeters wide, but he still couldn't see it. Looking at the real content in the drawer, it seems that this tribe also poured the whole country into burying their leader.

"No way, if I remember correctly this kind of funeral, it should be the first time I've discovered it. I've seen some science and education documentaries and related magazine papers before, but I haven't seen it before. How could the funeral home know?"

Li Chuo's interests and hobbies haven't changed much since he arrived in the modern age. Apart from the newly-added regular fanchasing games and visiting station b, he still likes the [-]th set of ccgv and some political, economic and military analysis programs. It's just small The boy's political horizon is very broad, and he can completely defeat the guest commentators on TV who are still nagging.

"You underestimate the human brain too much. You have learned it in class. The utilization rate of the brain of modern people is actually very low. Most of the memory sticks have not been used. Otherwise, how could Wang Dun do it so easily? I will expand the capacity for you, here..." Zhang Tao said, stretching out his slender fingers and poking around Li Chuo's temple.

"There's a lot of stuff buried deep in the past."

"Things from the past?" Li Chuo rubbed Zhang Tao's paws, subconsciously rubbing his temples.

"That's right, for example, the boss's brain is very good. Those old erotic palaces, banned novels... Aww!" Li Zi had just made a joke when he was slapped on the rock wall by Zhang Tao. above.

"What I mean is that although modern technology has not been able to detect what is hidden in those brains, there is a theory called the theory of collective unconsciousness. You should have heard of it? It is the assumption that scientists have not yet developed in humans. In the internal memory, some memories and ways of thinking from ancient ancestors are stored."

"You're saying that modern man was probably unknowingly inspired by drawer burials, and therefore invented the funeral home's cold room?"

"That's what it means. Look at my circle of friends. There are flying saucers and computers on the murals of ancient times." Zhang Tao took out his mobile phone and dangled it in front of Li Chuo as if offering a treasure.

"Boss, that's p's... ah!" Before he could finish his sentence, Li Zi was slapped by Zhang Tao and stuffed into the human-shaped groove he knocked out just now.

"Forget it, these are not important, let's open the coffin." Li Chuo was not in the mood to watch the two talk about cross talk, so he directed Zhang Tao to do it quickly.

"Come on!" Without saying a word, Zhang Tao grabbed the edge of the drawer's coffin with both hands, and after a struggle with his physical strength, with the sound of crashing gravel and the slight vibration of the mountain, he pulled out the drawer's coffin a little bit.

"What the hell!" Zhang Tao pulled violently, and the inner space of the sarcophagus finally saw the light of day, but at the same moment, he saw a pair of rotten arms clinging tightly to the drawer. edge!

The scene was very similar to a story he had heard in the alley before. The family’s cat could not be found. It didn't come out, and then it disappeared.

Time has changed, and when Hutonger was about to be demolished 50 years later, the construction team found a complete cat skeleton in the drawer-style kang hole when the kang was demolished. It turned out that the little guy hid things while the owner opened the kang hole It was drilled in when it was time, but it was permanently sealed inside before it could come out. When the skeleton was taken out, the pair of claws were still clinging to the mortise and tenon of the kang hole drawer, showing a posture similar to hunting.

The little owner who had been looking for it for a long time is now very old. He is an old man who has retired for many years. He cried a lot when he saw the cat's skeleton and buried it in the demolished yard. The morning glory of time, once the bulldozer goes down, there is nothing left.

"What kind of burial ceremony is this? Why is the owner of the tomb in such a strange posture?" Li Chuo was quite courageous, and took the initiative to reach out and poke a few phalanxes outside, but the owner who was holding the coffin wall seemed to be It was not very up-to-date, and it was fractured when it was poked by an external force, and the scattered bones fell to the ground, and some fell back into the coffin.

"Maybe it's some new way of playing in their tribe, with the butt facing the sand and falling into the wild goose?" Zhang Tao picked up a few bones from the ground, held them in his hand and looked at them carefully, and found that some of the bones had strange particles.

"This man's hand seems to be a bit deformed. The front of the first phalanx is so smooth. If you don't know, you might think he had a bone cutting operation." But cutting the bone is also cutting off the big pie face, right?Who is free to cut his fingers for fun.

"Ah! No!" Zhang Tao was fiddling with the bone particles in his hand, pouring them from one palm into the other, and then pouring them back from the other. He looked like a little ghost playing with dead bones, and suddenly thought of something , I was shocked all over.

By the way, I heard that the cat's skeleton is also like this. All the sharp nails that belonged to cats have been smoothed out. It seems that they are still making a final struggle before dying, trying to break the thick nails by scratching. Kang cave.

What if the owner of the tomb is the same?Was he buried alive? !That's why he scratched the thick rock wall hysterically. Even though he knew that it was impossible to break through the tightly sealed stone door with human power, under the instinctive will to survive, he kept using his flesh and blood to scratch the remaining stone door. Gap, hoping for a miracle.

"This big brother really has a will of steel." Zhang Tao used his thumb and forefinger to pinch the front end of the phalanx that was worn flat and showed it to Li Chuo and the others.

"Buried alive, scratched until dead."

"But why did they bury their leader alive? Is this a strange custom?" Li Chuo took the finger bone and held it in his hand for a closer look. The rustling scars on the bone still reminded them after thousands of years The deep despair when the owner of the tomb was buried.

"No way, primitive people are very animalistic, and they will basically surrender and submit to the lords of their own tribes, unless...the owners of these finger bones are not the men in the short movie just now, but someone else ?”
