Chapter 922 There is a different Ming Dynasty in history
"Really?!" Zi Yanling looked surprised.
The man opposite nodded: "Really, I didn't lie to you. If you don't believe me, I will take you there now."
"It's not that I don't believe you, but I'm afraid that you'll make up another story to tease me..." This really can't be blamed on Zi Yanling. It's actually that someone else's lover is a warm man, and hers is a cheat.
Ever since she was little, has she been cheated by Zhuang Chengbi a lot?
I hope Zhuang Chengbi didn't lie to her this time, otherwise...
Zi Yanling studied history, and she discovered a strange thing while studying history - it was recorded in history books that Ming Dynasty Emperor Chengzu once dreamed of a completely different Ming Dynasty, where technology was advanced and there were mechanical beasts flying in the sky and walking on the earth.
This also laid the foundation for the will of Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty to let future generations develop science and technology and realize what he dreamed of as soon as possible.
It’s not strange to dream, but what’s strange is, how could an ancient person dream of modern technology? Even something more advanced than modern technology?!
The lights are bright and the city never sleeps. This is a portrayal of modern society, and it may also be some kind of "imagination" of the ancient city.
But Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty mentioned "electric lights" and "cars", as well as briquettes and electric buildings...
Are you sure these things are not unique to modern times?
So, where did Ming Chengzu, an ancient man, dream about it?
Some people also suspect that this period of history may have been fabricated by later generations, but who made it up is unknown.
This incident just left an impression in Zi Yanling's mind, and she treated it as gossip and chatted with Zhuang Chengbi. Unexpectedly, a few days later, this guy actually told her that when he was traveling somewhere, he seemed to have heard a similar story.
s story.
It was spread by word of mouth among the local elders, and it has long since changed.
But when Zhuang Chengbi was traveling locally, he discovered that this old city once had a name, called "Da Ming City".
Later, after the Qing Dynasty came to power, they felt that the name was not good, so they changed it to "Qing City".
And due to various historical reasons, Daqing City has been deliberately ignored by people, and its economic development is very backward.
Now it has become an "old city" where young people have fled and only a few old people are left behind.
It wasn't until a certain Internet celebrity accidentally walked into this place and discovered that it was a town full of ancient flavor. He took a video and uploaded it, and then the "Qing City" started to move around again.
Zhuang Chengbi is also a traveler. How could he not be moved when he heard about such an ancient town?
So he took a trip, and during this trip, he found a broken town monument. Covered by green moss, it recorded the origin of "Da Ming City" - when the founder of the Ming Dynasty had a dream here, he changed its name to "Da Ming" in order to
What you see in your dream becomes reality.
It also mentioned what was mentioned in the unofficial history.
Zhuang Chengbi had just heard Zi Yanling mention this piece of unofficial history, and then he accidentally discovered a historical monument that also recorded this incident?!
Oh My God!
is this real?!
Just forge a piece of history, and even have a town monument?
If Zhuang Chengbi hadn't had a keen eye and accidentally discovered that this huge stone covered with weeds had words carved on it, in a few years, when the stone is completely weathered and the writings on it are completely unclear, I'm afraid this truth will really be revealed.
was buried.
When Zi Yanling took the tool and carefully wiped off the moss on the town monument, and clearly saw the blurred writing on it, he felt really shocked.
If it’s really a fake, isn’t it too real?!
Zi Yanling was a little unsure, so she took a photo and sent it to her mentor Zhao Wende.
Zhao Wende thought it was a student who found p, but Zi Yanling told him: "It's not p, I took it with my own hands. This stone is right in front of me... If it is a forgery, it is too real."
"Not only that, my friend also talked to the locals, and the local elders also knew this story and said it was passed down orally from their ancestors."
…
With all these things, how could Zhao Wende not be shocked.
When Zi Yanling asked about the unofficial history, he dismissed her with the word "forgery", but what he didn't say was that after later inspection, there was no trace of forgery in the unofficial history book, as if it was a book from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
The history books handed down from the period are generally.
But the content inside was too shocking and unbelievable, and no one could find any other evidence to prove it, so it was suppressed.
And now, his student Zi Yanling told him - not only did we find the town monument, but we also found the witness.
Although, this testimonial is a bit too watery.
But no matter what, Zhao Wende decided to take this trip.
If you want to do archaeology, you have to be unafraid of hard work. Only by witnessing it with your own eyes, conducting field investigations, and producing tangible evidence can you prove what the "truth" is.
"The teacher will come over and let us keep this monument for the time being."
"Okay, let's build a shed and wait for Teacher Zhao to come over."
…
During this period, Zi Yanling was not idle, constantly chatting with local elderly people, trying to dig out more information.
"Even though we are poor here, we are a treasure land of Feng Shui and have produced immortals."
"It's true. I heard it from my grandfather. I don't remember the details, but it just happened. My ancestors also encountered the immortal's cemetery and talked to the immortal dog guarding the cemetery."
"That fairy dog is so powerful, invulnerable..."
…
Zi Yanling was confused when he heard it, as if he was possessed by a demon.
She couldn't describe the feeling, as if something was attracting her and forcing her to expose it all.
After Zhao Wende arrived, he couldn't wait to inspect the town monument. In addition to rubbing the words on it, he also ritually tested the age of the stone.
During this test, Zhao Wende did not speak for a long time.
Because, just like that unofficial history book back then, it actually...
So, is this thing really a forgery? If it is a disguise, why is it so real?
"Yan Ling, do you think there are similar legends in the local area?" Zhao Wende asked while thinking.
"Yes, teacher." Zi Yanling did not hide anything and told Zhao Wende everything she had learned recently.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The teacher and student were silent for a long time, and finally decided to look for the cemetery the old man mentioned.
"Since the old man said that their ancestors saw it near here, it means that there may be an ancient tomb near Daqing City. We only need to check whether there is an ancient tomb nearby and we will know."
"But we don't have such a ceremony, teacher?"
"It's okay, teacher, I'll borrow it."
Zhao Wende spent a lot of effort and various trust connections to finally borrow a set of ground exploration rituals.
"Thank you, Lao Feng."
"Hey, thank you for what? If you really dig an ancient tomb over there, remember to tell me."
"Don't worry, I will definitely call you."
…
My good friend Feng Jiarong comes from a noble family. If we really want to excavate ancient tombs, we must bring him with us. With him here, Zhao Wende does not have to worry about digging half way and running out of money.
Alas... there is no way, who makes the country poor?
Because of their poverty, many tasks cannot be carried out smoothly and they need to seek sponsorship from everywhere.
Thinking of those things, Zhao Wende became a little upset.
It's a pity that he is just a historical researcher, and science and technology can't help, so he can only watch China being bullied internationally.
What is even more disturbing is that China obviously has a history of five thousand years, but due to various reasons, modern young people are not confident in their culture. The work they are doing to promote ancient culture is also not going well and they have suffered setbacks.
"Teacher, there's a reaction! Is there really an ancient tomb down here?!"
Zhao Wende was frightened, but he still said calmly: "It's not certain yet. It's possible that other things with age have been detected. We won't know until we actually dig them out."
"Then dig it out. I believe there must be an ancient tomb here."
