"Huh? This is..." I turned around and shouted to them: "It's okay, it's okay, you two didn't run away, she is a sister, and she doesn't look like she's playing with Lily."

At this time, the two girls had already put on their clothes and followed the path I had made. Meihui kept talking, shouting that she was a woman and would gouge out her eyes.

When the two girls got closer, they saw that it was a stone sculpture and it stopped making any sound.

"This seems to be a personal sculpture, it should be carved to imitate the proportions of a real person."

I said it was a human sculpture, but I guess this human sculpture should be a tomb sculpture. There must be another stone sculpture. This custom is found in many mountain cemeteries of ethnic minorities living in the Daxinganling Mountains in Northeast China. Some wealthy families,

Especially for adult women who cannot be buried with their husbands, two stone carvings must be placed in front of the tomb. The stone carvings are the same as the tomb owner's life appearance, and are as vivid as life. There is also a special emphasis on why two statues are used here.

One is used to attract the soul, lest the deceased continue to return to the old house to look for his family after death. After seeing his own stone sculpture, the soul will automatically return to the ghost house.

Another stone carving functions as a tombstone just like us Han people. On it are engraved the names of many tomb owners, their merits and deeds during their lifetime. Of course, if she is a married woman, she must engrave whether she has left any incense for her husband’s family.

, whether they have given birth to a son or a half, whether the children are the eldest sons of their husbands, and whether they have taken over the ancestral property. Women in the feudal dynasty are so miserable. If you do not give birth to a son for your husband, in the eyes of the tribe, you are considered a head wife and your status is extremely humble.

, it is better to live in a side house. After your death, your body will be thrown away by your husband's family in the wilderness and no one will collect it for you at your mother's house.

"It's a coincidence that we came early. I'm afraid we will encounter another ancient tomb today. Girls, get moving to see if this ancient tomb is related to the secret of Tong Jia's family or the legend of Mount Illehuli." Three people gathered around.

Following this stone carving, I began to search for the ancient tomb.

"Brother, look, look here, look here! I'll know it's what you want as soon as you see it!" Meihui deliberately quoted an advertising slogan on TV at the time to attract my attention.

I saw another sculpture exactly like it appeared about ten meters behind the stone woman. It was just that this stone carving was slightly smaller than the previous one, and the carvings on it were more delicate. Even the patterns on the woman's clothes were soft.

Delicate. This stone carving is holding a jade slip in its hand. There is a line of Manchu text engraved on the jade slip. Needless to say, this is the identity of the owner of the tomb. The materials used for this stone carving are also much more expensive than the previous ones. The previous large stone carvings were made from local materials.

, I took a large piece of pine flower stone. It seemed like there was a layer of sludge attached to the outside of the bottle, but I brushed the sludge away with my hands and found that the stone underneath was actually dark green, and this green was very blinking, with a green middle.

There is a slight soft darkness, which makes people feel extremely depressed when they look at it.

"Burmese jade!" I know this thing. When I was a child, I didn't see these good things in the Toudao Street antique market. In the previous dynasties, these things were paid as tribute. Let alone ordinary people, at least it would be a third-grade Yuancai.

If you dare to use it, it’s expensive.

There is something special about identifying jade. A connoisseur of new or old jade can recognize it at a glance. Ancient jade has pulp and jade has aura. If it is worn on the body for a long time, the owner's energy and blood will naturally be absorbed by it. It is sold on the market.
