In 1993, large-scale tombs of the Qin State were discovered in Yongxing Township and Yongping Township in Li County, Gansu Province (later, the Qin State Tombs Group in Li County was identified by experts as one of the four major cemeteries of the Qin State in the west.
Cemetery, of course, did not have this concept in the minds of the villagers at that time), this place was first noticed by some villagers who were herding sheep, and some funerary objects were found from the occasionally collapsed tombs.
This was not a big deal at first. There are often news about farmers digging up ancient tombs all over the country. However, the scale of the tombs discovered this time was very large. At first, the villagers did not pay much attention to the tombs and their burial objects.
There are so many concepts, but then someone discovered that these things can be sold for money.
As soon as it was linked to money, this matter became a big deal and spread quickly. Someone continued to dig there and found something else. Immediately afterwards, local residents from all over the country began to flock here in droves.
The excavation methods of these villagers are in no way comparable to those of soil crawlers and archaeological teams. They are absolutely destructive excavations. They used the crudest tools and the most primitive methods to excavate Qin tombs in batches.
An ancient tomb was dug up, and as soon as the tomb was opened, countless hands began to snatch the funerary objects inside.
Later, this group of tombs became the front line of labor, with huge crowds of people and intense enthusiasm, resulting in the destruction and loss of countless precious gold, silver, jade, and bronze wares. This incident spread quickly in the circle, and many gangs relied on the soil to make a living.
And everyone rushed to Gansu, trying to make some money from it.
But the villagers have a strong sense of prevention and their views are very simple. These tombs were found on their land, and everything inside belongs to them. No outsiders can interfere, otherwise they will face countless disasters.
Pickaxes and shovels. So those outsiders settled for the next best thing. They stayed on the front line of labor and paid for the items as soon as they were unearthed from the tombs.
In this way, the relationship between the two parties has become much more harmonious, and the West Frontier Cemetery has become a one-stop cultural logistics line for production and sales.
At that time, the old man had not yet gained a foothold in Jiangbei, and he was a guerrilla who wanted to change places with one shot. He had already adopted me at that time, but I was still young at the time and had no memory of many things. I just remember that the old man often traveled far away, and every time he went out,
Sometimes, he would leave an assistant and a hired nanny to take care of me.
At that time, the main force of the old man was a few uncles and a few young guys. It was at that time that Cao Shi worked for the old man to earn a living. However, he was still very young and could not do big things. He was supported by a few uncles.
They took turns taking it. News of the Xiqu Cemetery spread, and the old man also rushed there with a few of his associates.
After arriving at the place, the old man quickly understood the rules. He couldn't break the rules, so he had to stay on the front line of local villagers' production, waiting to dig out some hard goods and buy them on the spot. But just keep watching.
Found something strange.
The local villagers don't know much about tombs, they only know about sealing and ripening the earth. Compared with those professional earth crawlers, this level is not even a kindergarten. However, the tombs of the Qin Dynasty in the West Frontier Cemetery are very concentrated, and one was excavated.
There are everywhere everywhere, and professional skills don't seem to be of much use. The old man can't stand looking at it. This is simply a violation of the traditions of the country people. The villagers are busy with production, and the old man leaves his workers behind and stays nearby.
After wandering around, I accidentally discovered a tomb on the back side of the mountain.
The people who went down to the pit knew something about Feng Shui leylines, and the old man had always been famous for his eye poison. The tomb he found was isolated from the tombs, and when connected with the nearby Feng Shui, it turned out that this tomb was
The terrain of the tomb can be said to be very poor.
This tomb with extremely bad geomantic omen aroused the old man's interest, and he immediately investigated on the spot. Then, the old man discovered that although this tomb was not far from the Qin tombs in the Western Frontier Cemetery, it was not a Qin tomb. He put down the shovel.
After bringing out the pit ashes, it was roughly determined that it should be a Song tomb. As for the specific stage of the Song Dynasty, it is still unclear.
There was something weird about this tomb, but the old man had lived half his life as a local man and had seen a lot of strange things. He didn't hesitate much and opened the hole right then and there.
It can be said that everything that follows starts from this pit.
The process of digging the pit was uneventful. The old man brought something out of the pit. Cao Shi didn't know what it was specifically. Because several of his uncles were there at the time, he was still unable to handle the responsibility, and confidential matters could not be dealt with.
to his participation.
After returning from the Western Frontier Cemetery, the old man decided to seize the territory of Jiangbei. This seemed to be an almost impossible task at the time, but the old man did it. He completely surrendered to Xue Jinwandou and quit forever.
Jiangbei.
In the process of fighting Xue Jinwan, the old man cultivated his own power, and it was at that time that Cao Shi gradually emerged. After Xue Jinwan was driven out of Jiangbei and the old man gained a foothold, several unknown origins
People came to Jiangbei and joined the old man's camp.
The origins of these people are still a mystery until now. The old man has never mentioned it, and Cao Shi can't find out. These people are running around with people, and the old man is taking command in Jiangbei. Business in those two years was very difficult.
Every time we take action, we lose more or less manpower.
Cao Shi didn't know much about these things at the time. He only knew that people always died in those two years, but he didn't know why they died. This kind of endless casualties made people feel uneasy, and the old man may have realized that he couldn't be so forceful.
If you keep doing it, you will ruin the power you just cultivated and lose the hard-earned territory. So after that, these actions slowly converged and decreased. Then, those people of unknown origin disappeared completely and never appeared again.
.
Cao Shi didn't know whether these people had retired or died. In short, he never saw them again.
It wasn't until Cao Shi was valued by the old man that he gradually came into contact with these things and understood some of the secrets. In fact, these things are indeed a bit complicated. Except for the old man, it is impossible for anyone to fully understand them. People's thinking is opaque.
, especially the leader who controls so many stalls, it would be impossible to suppress it without the city government.
However, I don’t understand the process of these things, but I know that it all seems to be related to the Xixia Bronze Medal. This is my speculation, but there are many basis to explain the problem.
After those people disappeared, Jiangbei became much calmer, and many things went underground. Even the guys below couldn't know about it. So the old man's people were divided into two parts, one part ran the stall to make money, and the other part
I don't see the light and specialize in taking care of these things.
The uncles were old and couldn't do anything, so they washed their hands one after another. Cao Shi also grew up through continuous training over the years and was valued by the old man. He gained some authority, learned some inside stories, and was entrusted with the task.
heavy responsibility.
The old man has a total of three Xixia bronze medals. One of them was obtained earlier. It may have been obtained by several uncles. Cao Shi did not know. The other two were found by Cao Shi. The process in between was not
Having said that, it was very difficult anyway. It was precisely because of this that the old man relied more and more on Cao Shi and temporarily handed over most of the power to him, because this was a man who could handle big responsibilities.
When talking about this, Cao Shi suddenly asked me: "Do you still remember the twins?"
I nodded. This kind of thing shocked people so much that as long as I'm still alive, I can't forget it.
Cao Shi sighed softly, probably because this conversation reminded him of the deceased Cao Shuang. He only paused for a moment and then continued: "The Xixia bronze medal has a lot to do with the twins."
My nerves were deeply touched at once. Mustache also said similar things to me at the beginning, but he refused to go into details. Maybe he really didn’t know the truth, or maybe he wanted to hide it from me. In short, I have been trying to
I was upset when I couldn't get the answer, but I didn't expect that Cao Shi knew this too.
At this time, I was completely immersed in the whole thing, and I was really looking forward to Cao Shi telling me more about the inside story. But Cao Shi looked into my eyes, shook his head and said: "The relationship between the Xixia Bronze Medal and the Twins is the core of the whole incident.
, if you know this, there is no need to fight desperately to find these bronze medals. Master Ba has been looking for it, and others have also been looking for it. This is the most dangerous part of this matter."
"Why?"
"Many people are doing the same thing, looking for the same thing, which means they are all on the same line. If you keep your head down and do it quietly, it may be better. If someone gets wind of it, someone will come over and kill you immediately.
, you can’t imagine the energy of those people. After the corpses found in Yuanshan were transported back, Master Ba secretly did a lot of things in order to be 100% sure whether the corpses were twins. Master Tian, I am not being alarmist.
, there are many hidden things that you don’t know, and you may have never thought about them.”
