I just read a piece of news: 1400 years ago, an ancient tomb of a noble girl from the Sui Dynasty was never robbed for thousands of years, all because four characters were carved on the coffin lid: "The one who opens the coffin will die." Tomb raiders don't believe in heaven or officials, but they believe in these four words. It wasn't until 1957 that relevant authorities conducted a "protective excavation," and the coffin was officially opened, revealing 230 rare treasures. The quality was so high that it was considered the top-tier of the Sui Dynasty. Later, people realized that these four words were never truly about preventing tomb robbers. Archaeologists dig, museums preserve, curators monetize, and small workshops make perfect replicas, then carefully place them back in the museum. It turns out that "The one who opens the coffin will die" doesn't mean a person will die; it means the relics will die.
