What Xuan Mingzi said makes a lot of sense. If it is the unknown creatures on the left area, gnawing on the corpse as food, the coffin in the right area must have been destroyed.

Moreover, compared to preying on fat fish from the river, the corpses in the coffin in the right area are completely within reach for the unknown creatures in the left area.

What's more, if these unknown creatures want to prey on fat fish in the river, they must have fish swimming in the river.

Comparing again, the corpses in the coffin on the right area have always been placed there. If these unknown creatures had food in the corpses in the coffin, they would have been gnawed out long ago, and it would be impossible for them to have a coffin that had not been destroyed.

The open coffin is complete. According to Xuan Mingzi's analysis, Chen Jian believed that the coffin was artificially opened, which is a reasonable analysis.

However, after hearing Chen Jian's words, Xuan Mingzi slowly shook his head and said, "Not sure!"

At this time, Xiao Yurou came to Xuan Mingzi and asked, "The Taoist Master said he was not sure. Could it be that the Taoist Master thought the coffin was opened by the dead corpse inside? Moreover, the Taoist Master said before that this might be a corpse raising place. Are there really zombies in this world?"

"I haven't seen it before." Xuan Mingzi looked at Xiao Yurou, smiled, and said, "So, I don't know if there are zombies."

After a pause, Xuan Mingzi said again: "Don't be misled by the three words "Carrying a Body Land". Although the corpse land is what I said before, in fact, there have been relatively scientific research on the corpse land and some progress has been made. If you want to explain the corpse land, you have to start with several types of corpses."

Chen Jian smiled and said, "We have been in for a long time. If nothing unexpected happens, we will reach the finish line through this area. Everyone eat something, replenish their strength, and listen to the Taoist priest explaining what's going on."

After hearing Chen Jian's words, everyone naturally had no objection. They were almost at the end of the day, so they were not in a hurry. What's more, if they passed through this area, they had not made a decision.

If you want to walk into the area of ​​unknown creatures on the left, it means that there will be a fierce battle, and replenishing your physical strength is necessary.

Xuan Mingzi smiled and said, "At present, the ancient corpses unearthed are divided into four types: mummy corpses, corpses wax, tanned corpses, and wet corpses!"

"Mumblings are mummies, right?" Alice asked.

Xuan Mingzi nodded and said, "Mummy is a type of mummy. Mummies are more common. They are the result of dryness of the entire corpse. Its characteristics are: dark all over the body, dry flesh and bones, low belly, mummies are divided into artificial mummy, and natural mummy. Mummies belong to artificial mummy!"

After a pause, Xuan Mingzi continued: "Natural mummies refer to mummies that have not been processed manually, mainly due to the dry burial environment, which causes dehydration of the corpse. For example, the ancient corpse of Loulan, which we all know, is because the area is low and concave, the climate is dry, and the rainfall is very small. The corpse is only covered with crude wool cloth and sheepskin, with a layer of dry branches and sand on it, and there is no well-sealed coffin. Therefore, the corpse can be contacted with the air circulating outside. In the hot and dry desert, the water in the body evaporates quickly, which is extremely unfavorable for bacterial growth and reproduction. Even the tissue that has begun to corrupt gradually slows down its corruption process and finally is in a static and steady state, so that the corpse can be preserved and become a mummy!"

Everyone nodded silently, and Xuan Mingzi continued: "Corpse wax is more common in corpses that are soaked in water or buried in areas with sufficient moisture, moist, calcium and magnesium, or in soil. They form off-white or yellow-white solid fat-wax-like substances on the surface of the corpse or in the fat tissue in the body. They have a greasy feeling and can be crushed, but they are crisp and brittle."

Xuan Mingzi drank a sip of water and added: "Corpse wax is rare than mummy corpse. The waxy changes are generally only seen in the skin and subcutaneous fat. Because most of the corpse corruption is still in progress during waxy. After the waxy is formed locally, other tissues of the corpse, especially the internal organs, have been mostly destroyed. There are many reports on corpse waxes abroad, but no typical corpse waxes have been found in China. However, many ancient corpse waxes have changed like waxes! Experts believe that this is because although the environment is dry, part of the corpse has dried, its moisture is enough for another part of the corpse to form corpse waxes."

"What is tanned corpse?" Wang Fugui asked while eating supplies.

"Tan corpses are mostly formed in acidic humid soil or mud areas. The corpses are in acidic sludge with low temperature and air not circulating. The growth and reproduction of corruption is inhibited, and the corruption slows down or stops." Xuan Mingzi explained: "The acidic sludge contains a large amount of humus, rich in tannins and a variety of humic acids. It is likely that the effect of these substances makes the skin of the corpses dark and very dense, like tanning skin, causing muscles and organs to be dehydrated, and some proteins are dissolved, so the muscles and internal organs are mentioned to shrink, reduce weight, dissolve the calcium of the bones and teeth, making the bones softer like cartilage, and are easy to cut with a knife. This type of ancient corpse is even rarer!"

Xuan Mingzi said this, opened the supply food packaging bag, and after taking a few bites, he continued to say: "Wet corpses were named in modern times. Because of the development of funeral customs, the most common ancient corpses in my country is that the coffin is sealed and buried deep in the soil, and are all soaked in the coffin liquid. The body surface is moist, the skin has small particles, a small amount of nodules, that is, rashes, and the surface of the internal organs has a small amount of fatty acid salt particles, so it is hard to say that they belong to corpse wax.

The difference between tanned corpses and mummies is even greater. Accordingly, experts soaked them in coffin liquid when unearthed. They have complete appearance, complete internal organs, plump body, elasticity, and joints of the limbs and joints. During dissection, the muscle tissue is clearly layered, the blood vessels and nerves are intact. The tissue structure is well preserved under a microscope. Cell structure can be found in some tissues. These characteristics are combined. Ancient corpses that meet these characteristics are called wet corpses!”

"The most famous wet corpse is the Han Dynasty female corpse, Mrs. Xin Zhui, unearthed from the Han Tomb of Mawangdui!" Chen Jian nodded and said.

Xuan Mingzi also nodded and said, "The formation of these four ancient corpses has a specific geographical environment. As for the fourth type, although it is different, it is because various means were used to deal with the tomb chamber during the burial. However, its essence has not changed. It was chosen to be buried in the so-called Feng Shui treasure land through Feng Shui geodesy. Since the essence has not changed, it can naturally be regarded as the same. You should understand the so-called corpse-raising land now, right?"
