Timur's tomb in Samarkand
There are many things in history that cannot be explained by science, and these supernatural phenomena have been spread in a superstitious way. Curse is also a kind of superstition, people are both afraid and curious about the curse, and people gradually found that some curses in the end actually became real events, the following small series will take stock of the five strange and mysterious curses in history.

V. The Curse of Timur the Great: In 1941, a Soviet scientific research team opened the Timurid Mausoleum in Samarkand, and after opening the sarcophagus, found the remains of Timur, and the researchers were surprised by the size of Timur's skeleton, speculating that his height was about 190cm. Just as everyone was preparing to delve into this skeleton, a line was found on the back of the sarcophagus: Anyone who opens the sarcophagus will be defeated by the evils of war! On the morning of the day after Timurid's sarcophagus was opened, Hitler launched barbarossa's plan to invade the Soviet Union. The Soviet-German War broke out, and the Soviet Union suffered repeated defeats and heavy losses. Realizing the seriousness of the matter, the scientific team approached the general Zhukov and described in detail the whole process of the incident, and Zhukov immediately reported the situation to Stalin. Frightened by Hitler, Stalin ordered Tamerlane's remains to be put on a plane on July 16, 1942 (the day before the Battle of Stalingrad), flew around Moscow three times (Russians usually circled the idols around Moscow three times before the war to beg for victory in the war), and then re-buried Timur. So the Germans began to retreat, and finally surrendered in defeat.

Iv. The Curse of the Pharaoh: In the deep passages of the Egyptian pyramids, a solemn and majestic incantation is engraved: Whoever disturbs the peace of the pharaoh, the wings of death will descend on him. It was thought that the incantations were inscribed on the tombways only to frighten the tomb robbers and save the pharaoh's and the treasures of the tombs from being moved. With the rise of modern archaeology, many Western scholars and explorers came to Egypt to excavate monuments, but they did not take this seriously. Yet what has happened over the centuries has forced those who daredevil to be intimidated by spells: the vast majority of those who enter the Pharaonic Tomb Treasure, whether explorers, tomb robbers or, soon contract an incurable disease or die inexplicably in an accident. One had to wonder if this was the manifestation of Pharaoh's spell.

Three: The Curse of the Yehenara Clan: When Nurhaci destroyed the Yehe Jurchens, the Yehe chief Buyangu surrendered and saw Nurhaci arrogant and did not worship, Nurhaci was furious and ordered him to be hanged. Before dying, Buyangu cursed the heavens: "Even if there is only one woman left in yehenara, I will destroy the Jurchens of Jianzhou." After the Qing Dynasty, it was found that the manchu Qing dynasty was indeed inextricably linked to the two women of the Yehenara clan. Empress Dowager Cixi, the last ruler of the Qing Dynasty, and Empress Longyu, who signed the edict of abdication, were both of the Yehenara clan.

Second, the curse of Tecommse: In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, in order to expand its territory to the West, the United States used various methods to plunder the land owned by the local indigenous Indians. In order to protect their homeland, the Indians were forced to rebel and a large-scale war broke out. Tqumseh was the famous Indian leader who emerged in the process. In September 1813, Harrison led his troops in pursuit of the fleeing British and Indian forces. In the end, the coalition forces were completely destroyed on the banks of the River Thames in Canada, and Tecommesai was also heroically sacrificed. In order to deter the Indians, Harrison dismembered and skinned Tkumsai's body and made the peeled human skin into a razor sharpener belt.
It is said that before his death, Tkumse cursed: "Hudson will soon die: when he dies you will remember the death of my people, and you will think that I have lost my strength: I, dimming the sun, and making the Indians abstain from spirits." But I tell you Harrison is going to die, and every 20 years since then the Supreme Leader will die. Their deaths will make everyone remember the deaths of our Indian people. So Harrison, elected in 1840, died in January, Lincoln, elected in 1860, Garfield, who was elected in 1880, McKinley, who was elected in 1900, died suddenly during the office of Harding, elected in 1920, Roosevelt, who was elected in 1940, and Kennedy, who was elected in 1960, was assassinated. However, Reagan, who was elected in 1980, survived the assassination; George W. Bush, who was elected in 2000, was choked by a cookie, but in the end there was no danger. It seems that the "Curse of Tqumsai" has been cracked, and it is not known what will happen later...
First, my mother's curse: The curse that I still can't let go of is from my mother, and when I grew up, I found that many of my friends around me had received such a curse, and all of them were realized. It reminds me of an afternoon many years ago, when I came home playing in mud, my mother was very angry, hitting and scolding. While playing, he said: "You know every day that you can't play well and study, and when your Aunt Li's children are admitted to prestigious universities in the future, and your Aunt Wang's children make a lot of money, you won't wait to regret it in the future." Later, one was admitted to Fudan, and one set up a small company. And I'm struggling to code words every day.
