The Complete Works of the Tomb, Part Two: Exploring the Qinling Mountains 261

With a "squeak", the car stopped at the entrance of Guizigou Village. As soon as the car stopped, Liu Ming opened the door first and walked out. When I saw it, I quickly got out of the car, and then I grabbed Liu Ming and said:

"We're just going to see him?"

"Yeah, what should we say when the time comes?" Fatty and Li Fang asked next to them.

"I saw this Huangshi when I was ten years old, and he hugged me at the time. I believe he would recognize us if I showed him something..." Liu Ming said something shocking!

"You...you have met him?" Li Fang couldn't believe Liu Ming's words.

Liu Mingming nodded, and without saying a word, he walked towards the place where Huang Shi lived in the village! The fat man quickly caught up with Liu Ming and asked, "What are you showing him?"

As Liu Ming walked, he pulled a small pendant from his neck and handed it to the fat man. Li Fang and I quickly stretched our heads to take a look.

This is the jade cicada that Liu Ming has been carrying around his neck. When I first saw this jade cicada, I could tell it was something extraordinary. The whole jade cicada was crystal clear. I could touch the jade cicada with my hand.

It feels extremely oily. The whole little cicada is a little bit bigger, but the carving skills are very superb. The little jade cicada is as big as a thumb, and you can even see that the eyes in his eyes can be divided into several layers...

"This... this seems to be a piece of Hetian jade?" The fat man took the jade and felt it with his hands and immediately told the material of the jade. The fat man had no other ability, he just had a feeling for precious things.

"This...is this...something in a dead man's mouth?" Li Fang took one look at it and immediately told the origin of this thing.

"That's right, this thing is the body protection contained in the mouth of the dead body." I looked at Li Fang and the fat man with admiration.

In fact, the first time I saw the jade cicada in Liu Ming's neck, I knew it was poured out of a tomb.

This kind of thing is kept in the mouth to protect the body after death. In the ancient Chinese burial system, most wealthy families would put a small piece of jade carving or carving in the mouth of the corpse after the death of a close relative.

This custom of golden eagles has been going on for thousands of years.

Often this small piece of jade or gold carving is the most valuable thing in the entire tomb, and the jade cicada around Liu Ming's neck can be seen from the material, craftsmanship, and format that it is a Han Dynasty piece.

The early extraordinary thing, that is, its origin is definitely not simple. This jade cicada should have been poured out of the tomb of a nobleman if it was not a prince.

"Yes, this is the protective body that the dead man holds in his mouth. Huangshi gave it to my father on his birthday when I was ten years old. Later, my father gave it to me. I believe it is such a precious thing.

He must recognize it." Liu Ming looked at my confused eyes and said, then he reached out and took the little jade cicada from the fat man's hand and put it around his neck. I could tell from Liu Ming's expression that Liu Ming

He is very concerned about the gift his father gave him...
