Chapter 178 Immortal Body and Feathering
Some viewers from eastern Guangdong Province looked at the pictures displayed behind Ye Zhen.
"What kind of black technology did this ancient man master?"
"How on earth was this body preserved? This is outrageous."
"Could it be that the owner of this body is not dead yet?"
"But I heard that the ancient corpse was dissected in order to study the mystery of its incorruptibility."
In fact, after seeing this ancient corpse.
Everyone was talking a lot, and some people said that this ancient corpse was actually not dead yet.
Just waiting for an opportunity to be resurrected.
Isn't this just like the Pharaoh of ancient Egypt?
Preserve your body and wait for the day of resurrection.
The same is true for current cryonics technology.
However, the preservation technology of this ancient corpse seems to be superior to the current cryonics technology.
It can be stored for more than 2000 years, still at normal temperature and pressure.
There is no need for anyone else to manage it. This alone is already more powerful than the cryonics technology.
In fact, until now, the reason why this ancient corpse does not rot has not been understood.
I wish the President of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, as doctors, of course they know a lot about the human body.
"President Zhu, is there really a way to keep a corpse from decaying for thousands of years?"
"This is too outrageous. Even if it is soaked in formalin, it cannot be preserved for more than 2000 years."
"Yes, the formalin solution needs to be replaced during this process."
Formalin is now the most commonly used liquid for preserving specimens, and it is also the best method.
To put it bluntly, formalin solution is an aqueous solution of formaldehyde.
Ye Zhen seemed to know what the audience was thinking, as he looked at the camera with deep eyes.
"Are you all curious about how this ancient man did it?"
“It’s amazing that this body can be preserved for such a long time.
According to the current scientific explanation, the white plaster mud outside the coffin prevents groundwater from seeping into it.
Therefore, the integrity of the ancient tomb can be well preserved.
The second thing is the charcoal under the white plaster mud, which is a full [-] kilograms of charcoal.
The charcoal can absorb water and moisture, and then there is the gas stored in the fire cave.
These gases can serve as a third layer of protection to isolate the outside air.
Just like the inert gas in potato chips when we eat them.
Potato chips can be stored longer.
The same goes for the gas in this fire cave.
However, so far, only such a well-preserved fire cave has been discovered.
So we don’t know what the gas is.
This gas may be the key to preserving the body from decay.
Then there's the brown liquid in the coffin.
However, there is not much liquid left, only two bottles are left.
Later, after testing, it was found that the main ingredients were cinnabar and mercury.
There are also some Chinese herbal ingredients.
However, there is no way to prove that this liquid is related to the corpse's longevity. "
In fact, something minor happened here back then.
Because at the beginning when some staff opened the coffin.
Everyone had come into contact with this brown liquid, and no one took it seriously at first.
But later I discovered that the hands of some of the staff started to itch.
And there were black spots on his hands, which they thought might be due to corpse poison! So at that time, some people said that this ancient corpse was ominous.
Because the staff who had come into contact with the brown liquid had different levels of poisoning.
Finally, it took several years of treatment to recover.
So why did some people say that this ancient corpse should be burned, saying that this ancient corpse was ominous?
In fact, this is just caused by bacteria. More than 2000 years of bacterial corruption and toxins have accumulated in the brown liquid.
How could it not be toxic?
Ye Zhen then said: "Actually, this body is not rotten, and it is not as rare as everyone thinks."
"I will give you an example and everyone will know.
Have you ever been to some Taoist or Buddhist temples and seen some golden bodies?
These are the masters of the incorruptible body.
During their lifetimes, they were often some eminent monks, or some extremely high-level Taoist priests.
After their death, some people's bodies will not decay.
The locals would then build a temple to his body.
Let him become the local patron saint and the incense will continue. "
At this point, some viewers discovered that it seems that it is not uncommon for the body to remain incorruptible.
"Speaking of which, there is actually such a temple near my home. There is a golden statue of a monk in it. It is said to be hundreds of years old."
"Is this the golden body of Buddhism? Does Taoism have something similar?"
"Could it be that this ancient corpse in Mawangdui is some kind of cultivator?"
"I understand, these incorruptible bodies are superpowers!"
At this point, Professor Yan Xin, who was looking at the interface, had an idea.
For his psychic ascension plan, and to gain special powers again.
Yan Xin has been studying various possibilities.
There are all kinds of supernatural beings in Taoism and Buddhism.
Therefore, Yan Xin investigated a lot of content in this area back then.
In the 80s, Yan Xin went to a local village.
According to legend, there is an old man named Wu Yunqing who is a Taoist, and he lived for more than 160 years.
It is important to know that the limit of human lifespan is based on the limits of mitochondria and cell division.
Theoretically, it's only about 120 years old.
This aroused Yan Xin's interest.
Yan Xin shook the red wine glass in his hand and said to himself.
"Don't you rot the body?"
The things I went to investigate back then are still vivid in my mind.
According to local villagers, old man Wu Yunqing calculated the day he would die.
And he told his disciples that after his death.
Just put him in a big tank and dig him out after three years.
If his body rots, it means he has failed.
If the body is not decayed, it means that he has successfully emerged.
Three years later, as expected, the villagers followed the agreement they made with the old old man was dug out of the vat.
At that time, many villagers saw the excavation process.
As expected, old man Wu Yunqing's body was not corrupted and was still intact.
This is an incorruptible golden body.
After the local villagers saw it, they all said that Wu Qingyun had achieved enlightenment and ascended to heaven.
He got rid of his physical body and ascended to heaven.
At that time, I wanted to be able to see the situation inside through the big tank.
This large vat was covered with glass after the tomb was opened.
I found water droplets on the glass of this large tank.
Any normal person would know that this corpse might have already finished decomposing.
But after opening it, they discovered that Wu Yunqing's body was not only free of corruption.
There is also a feeling of black and red.
However, after the vat was opened, the body quickly began to wither.
After the local government learned about it, many media immediately came to report it.
He also built a crystal coffin for old man Wu Yunqing and evacuated the inside.
A temple was built for him locally and a golden body was built for him.
Yan Xin was very curious about this matter. He suspected that it had something to do with psychic energy! And after investigation, it was discovered that the old man Wu Yunqing practiced a technique called Jiuzhuan Huandan when he was alive.
In fact, there is a small episode in it.
Because old man Wu Yunqing agreed that it would not be opened until three years later.
But this matter has already spread a lot locally.
There are all kinds of rumors.
So two years and three months later, the local director of cultural relics wanted to secretly open the vat.
Want to see what's going on inside.
I have to say that this director of cultural relics is really smart. He wanted to confirm this situation in advance.
I took advantage of the night to open old man Wu Yunqing's tank.
Fortunately, the flesh inside was not corrupted, but it lost almost a year.
No one knows what impact this will have.
Not to mention that the body has been taken out, but it can only continue like this.
After leaving the tank, the body was still soft and elastic.
It is almost the same as the ancient corpse in the Mawangdui Han Tomb.
It was impossible to tell that this was a corpse that had been buried for three years.
It seemed as if it had been buried not long ago.
Later, Yan Xin continued to investigate and found that before Wu Yunqing's death, it was said that he had reached the Bigu stage of cultivation.
There was no need to eat for a long time before death.
Yan Xin also did an examination at the beginning to see if Wu Yunqing's body had been soaked in formalin or something else.
Unexpectedly, there was nothing.
Why is this so shocking?
Because under normal circumstances, if this body is not processed, let alone how many years it will be.
It will start to rot within two days.
Not to mention that your body will still be moisturized and your skin will remain elastic and corrosion-free years later.
This is simply unscientific and impossible to do.
But Yan Xin himself was a professor of biology, so he could confirm it at the time.
This has not been processed by any technology at all. This is the reason for Wu Yunqing himself.
At that time, Yan Xin thought that he had found traces of psychic energy.
Yan Xin believed that Wu Yunqing had already reached a certain level of cultivation at that time.
It can already absorb spiritual energy in the air, which is spiritual energy.
After going through inedia, all the impurities in the body have disappeared.
Just through breathing, you can absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and form spiritual energy in your body.
This spiritual energy can provide the needs of the body.
Sure enough, before he died, old man Wu Yunqing clearly calculated and knew the date of his death.
Moreover, he had started fasting more than two months before his death and stopped eating anything.
According to current science, it is impossible to continue living without eating or drinking for more than two months.
But old man Wu Yunqing did it.
Yan Xin suspected that the old man Wu Yunqing was trying to break through a certain realm.
In the words of the novel, it is a retreat to level up.
In the end, old man Wu Yunqing's physical body did not decay, and Yan Xin suspected that it was because of his spiritual power.
It's a pity that Yan Xin finally found the Nine Turns of Returning Alchemy Skill that Wu Yunqing had practiced during his lifetime, but he still didn't develop any spiritual power.
Regarding the age of old man Wu Yunqing, it is even more of an unsolved mystery.
However, according to reporters who reported at the time, Wu Yunqing was already an old man before the founding of the People's Republic of China.
When he was reporting, Wu Yunqing was already an old man.
Yan Xin believes that all this is because qigong is spiritual, but old man Wu Yunqing is already dead.
Yan Xin also lost the clue.
Ye Zhen said: "Actually, this is not uncommon in Taoism and Buddhism.
In both Taoism and Buddhism, there are people whose bodies are incorruptible.
The golden bodies of these people are also enshrined in some folk temples.
Is it possible that the ancient corpses in Mawangdui actually don't use these external things?
Can the body still be incorruptible? "
Here we have to mention some incredible cultural relics unearthed in Mawangdui.
This may have a lot to do with corpse immortality, immortality and cultivation.
I saw a picture appearing behind Ye Zhen.
I saw in the picture that there are many different villains, and the movements of the villains are different.
Looking around, there are at least dozens of villains.
"This is what was unearthed in the Mawangdui Han Tomb."
"The meticulous color silk painting is called "Guide Picture"."
"This may be the key to the immortality and immortality of ancient corpses."
It looks brightly colored and is still clearly visible after more than 2000 years.
This is a rare and precious cultural relic.
But what does this picture have to do with the immortal body and immortality?
The audience looked at this picture full of little people in confusion.
