Chapter 157
At that time, the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, that is, the Yellow River in Jinan Prefecture, burst its embankment, and the waves were monstrous.
The flood was so sudden that no one realized it.
Because at that time, there was no heavy rain in Jinan Province, and the clear sky suddenly thundered at night.
At that time, everyone saw the raging Yellow River and thought that the flood was about to flood their homes.
Many people rushed home to pack up their soft bags and flee...
And many more people hugged each other and wept, waiting for the flood to come—death to come!
Even the local governor fainted overnight and sat in the pavilion all night.
But the next day... The imaginary flood inundated the home, but the scene of flooding everywhere did not appear.
Although the Yellow River burst its banks with strong waves, the flood water did not rush ashore.
But because no one dared to approach the Yellow River, no one knew why.
Then, something even stranger happened.
When the governor reported the strange incident, he accidentally learned that the capital was flooded that night.
The flood that should have appeared in Jinan Mansion appeared in the capital.
No one has been explained for this "flood" incident so far.
But now, in Ye Xiao's opinion, it was because at that time, after Emperor Jiajing ordered Lan Daoxing to kill the evil dragon, Haiyan was unguarded and the flood was out of control, which caused the flood in the capital.
As for the bursting of the Yellow River, it should be inseparable from this sea eye.
Other words...... The sea eye in this river of blood must be able to reach Jinan Mansion hundreds of kilometers away.
Therefore, the backflow of the Yellow River eventually led to the flood of the capital, that is, the "flood flowing".
So, in order to calm the floods.
There must be people with enough life to guard this sea eye.
At the beginning, it should have been Lan Daoxing guarding the sea eye.
Later, after the death of Emperor Jiajing, the body of Emperor Jiajing was stored in the sea eye, and the sea eye was guarded with the "body of a true dragon".
So, the eye of the sea finally calmed down.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiao looked up at the screen.
The archaeological team, led by Professor Yang, has been descending to the beams one after another.
The remains of ancient and modern emperors are often the most interesting thing for the archaeological team.
Speaking of this dragon robe alone, if it is completely stripped from the corpse, it can be assessed as a first-class cultural relic according to the degree of preservation.
These are all ancient cultural heritages, which are of great significance for historical research.
So immediately, everyone in the archaeological team gathered around the corpse, and they all observed excitedly.
I was amazed at how well Emperor Jiajing's dragon robe was preserved.
Immediately, a voice came.
"Look, Professor, there's something in his throat!" exclaimed
one of the team's members, crouched on the beam.
When Professor Yang heard this, he hurriedly came to the corpse and looked at the neck of the "Emperor Jiajing".
Immediately, Professor Yang's eyes lit up and said:
"In ancient times, when princes and nobles were buried, there was generally a tongue-pressing, also called jade, which was a symbol of the ancient corpse funeral system.
"The ancients thought that with gold and jade in their mouths, they could keep the bodies of those who were buried from decaying.
As he spoke, Professor Yang put on his gloves very familiarly, put his index and middle fingers into the mouth of the corpse, and took out a piece of jade.
This piece of jade was spread out in Professor Yang's hands, and everyone looked at it, but they couldn't help but be stunned.
"Why is the jade key??? the jade key?" Professor
Yang was stunned.
In his opinion, if this Jiajing Emperor wants to live forever, of course, it is most appropriate to shout a jade cicada in his mouth.
The cicada means that the golden cicada sheds its shell, that is, regenerates.
Just echoed Emperor Jiajing's wishes.
But...... What does this jade key represent?
Not only Professor Yang and others, but even Professor Zhou Lao and other experts in the seminar were also confused.
Ye Xiao stared at this jade key with burning eyes, and suddenly spoke:
"Do you still remember the brocade wood box in the treasure pavilion on the fourth floor?"
Professor Yang hurriedly beckoned the team members and took out the brocade box in the treasure cabinet on the fourth floor, and pointed the jade key at the keyhole under it.
"Click!"
two very crisp sounds, and the jade key was completely submerged in the keyhole.
Professor Yang's pupils dilated slightly, and he held his breath and began to turn the jade key.
In an instant, only two "pops" were heard, and the brocade box was opened.
Everyone had a look of surprise on their faces, staring at the brocade box in Professor Yang's hand.
With everyone's strong anticipation, the brocade box was slowly opened.
There is no golden light as everyone thinks, and there is no brilliance.
To everyone's disappointment, there was only one crystal pill in the box.
Professor Yang was surprised and said,
"It's just a... Pill ???"
Professor Zhou looked at this scene, and his eyebrows had already been twisted into the shape of "Chuan".
He looked at Ye Xiao a little stunned and asked,
"Why is this box... Just a pill?"
I'm afraid this is the common doubt in everyone's hearts at this time.
The treasure pavilion on the first to third floors was an eye-opener for everyone in the archaeological team.
It stands to reason that in this treasure cabinet on the fourth floor, the things stored should be more eye-catching.
And at this moment, Ye Xiao suddenly spoke.
"Do you still remember the two alchemy monks in the Dan Room?"
"They should be the ones who refined this ambergris elixir!" It's just that Emperor Jiajing died too suddenly, so he didn't have time to take this pill at all.
"And jade is very easy to wear, and after opening the lock once, it is worn and damaged, and it can no longer be used! The meaning of making it into a jade key is very simple
!" "In other words, only Emperor Jiajing can open the box where this elixir is stored! And the person who has immortality is none other than Emperor Jiajing!"
After saying this, everyone present understood.
No wonder this pill is so peculiar, as white as jade.
It turned out to be the ambergris on the bone of the dragon's head, which was refined into an elixir.
"That's... Then does the elixir refined by ambergris really have the effect of immortality?"
In the eyes of the sea, a team member's eyes lit up and he suddenly asked.
When the rest of the people heard this, they couldn't help but breathe.
After all, the real dragons appeared, and everyone was able to see the real ambergris.
Dripping from the keel, the liquid was crystal clear like real elixir and jade milk, and even everyone could feel the magic in it!
Not to mention the alchemy, which has always been endowed with a mythical color since ancient times.
Maybe it's one of the elixirs...
Seeing this scene, everyone's eyes turned red irrepressibly, and they all stared at the crystal elixir in the brocade box in front of them with shortness of breath.
Ye Xiao stood in the hall and clearly saw the changes in the expressions of these people.
