Chapter 1148 Open the Coffin?
Song Rong looked at the dragon-patterned tomb coffin with seven points of curiosity, two points of eagerness, and one point of caution.
When Wang Yuquan opened the lid of the wooden coffin, the mutant corpse-bugs that appeared left a deep impression on Song Rong. Even though it was dark at the time, Song Rong did not see clearly how many corpse-bugs there were, but the rustling footsteps and the screams of Guo Wendong that seemed to be vivid in her ears still made Song Rong feel frightened now.
"We have pulled out all the nails around this dragon-patterned tomb coffin. What is in this coffin? Is there really a jade seal of the heirloom? ... We must open it in the end... But Captain Qin, do you think we should open it now? Or wait until we get out and let others decide?" Pei Yian frowned. She was also very curious about this legendary token that represented the orthodox emperor in the history of China.
But even if she was curious, Qin Feng was the only one who could make the decision among them.
Nowadays, technology is limited. Even if professionals like them carefully excavate and mine, they may not be able to sort out those ordinary burial objects intact.
Not to mention something as important as the emperor's coffin?
You know... after so many years of archaeological excavation, except for those emperor's coffins that have been damaged by tomb robbers and tomb robbers, and the emperor's remains can be seen, in order to ensure that the emperor's remains will not be damaged, the archaeologists will never open the lid of the emperor's coffin in private.
It's not that they are afraid of the other party's remains. The body will be in a terrible state, but they are afraid that once the coffin is opened, the body will come into contact with the air and undergo other changes, causing the entire body to be seriously damaged. That would be a loss!
Especially for an emperor like Emperor Taizong of Tang who is famous throughout the history of China! His existence is even more meaningful! Once his body is devastated, I am afraid that when he looks back, the archaeological leaders will beat their chests and stamp their feet, and they will be in great pain.
"Do you think this tomb coffin should be opened?" Qin Feng frowned and was a little undecided.
The 81 long nails around the dragon-patterned tomb coffin in front of them had been pulled out by the four of them. It was the best thing to open it, but what if something unexpected happened and the other party's body was damaged?
Qin Feng thought about it and felt that his head was two big.
"If we don't open it and take a look, does Captain Qin plan to take these 81 long nails back and fix them?" Song Rong frowned and said in surprise: "Captain, let's not talk about anything else. Look at these long nails on the ground that we pulled out. Many of them are almost broken. They are not complete nails after being pulled out... Even if we want to install the original long nails back, it may not be an easy task."
It has a history of thousands of years from the Tang Dynasty to the present. After such a long time, even if this dragon-patterned tomb coffin is buried underground and well preserved, these nails are not like new ones. They will still oxidize, rust and become extremely fragile.
Under the illumination of the mining lamp, everyone silently looked at the long nails on the ground. A small half of the nails were intact after being pulled out, and the remaining majority were either deformed or broken. Many of the broken heads were even still in the dragon-patterned coffin...
