As for the ancient tombs in "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", where mercury was used to poison thieves, there are indeed some ancient tombs. For example, in the most famous ancient tomb of Qin Shihuang, It is infused with mercury. As we all know, mercury is a heavy metal that is toxic in the human body, and it also evaporates. Therefore, ancient people used this characteristic to prevent thieves from entering.

Moreover, mercury also has a property: injecting mercury into the corpse can prevent the corpse from decaying. This is also a common technique used by many ancient people.
However, mercury will gradually fade over time and its toxicity will disappear. Moreover, ancient people would not be so benevolent in treating those who stole their treasures and let them go, allowing the tomb robbers to escape.
