68. Chapter 68 The identity of the owner of the tomb is revealed
"Hahaha... Male Gobi, I thought I was dead."
After resting for a while, Liu Jinsheng got up with difficulty. His previous sprint was a bit difficult even for Liu Jinsheng's physique, not to mention that he was chasing a big rice dumpling behind him.
"Do you think this big rice dumpling will escape again?" Liu Jinsheng asked worriedly.
"It shouldn't be possible. There is a nest of corpse-eating beetles down there. Whether it's a rice dumpling or a person falling in, as long as it's a corpse, those corpse-eating beetles will eat it up."
Liu Jinsheng thought so too, nodded, and then thanked Yin Hu on the side: "Thank you for saving me just now."
Hearing this, Yin Hu glanced at him and said calmly: "No, I owe you a life. We are even."
"Ah...I can't hear you?"
Liu Jinsheng tilted his other ear. Since Yin Hu had almost fired against his ear just now, his ear on that side was still buzzing!
"never mind!"
"If you say it again, I still can't hear you!"
"..." Yin Hu was speechless.
"Hahaha..." Shi Tieniu looked on and smiled happily.
The three men repaired it a little and came to the tomb owner's coffin. They saw that the coffin had been pried open. No need to guess that it must have been pried open by Brother Chong, Bold and a few others. According to Bold's instructions along the way,
In such a situation where people are obsessed with money, without Li Changzhu's suppression, how could they not take action in the face of such a huge temptation!
At this time, the coffin was empty. It was not difficult for Liu Jinsheng and the others to know where the owner of the tomb had gone, because they had just opened a big hole in the head of the owner here!
"Hey, let's see if there are any good things here first." Shi Tienniu smiled and then moved the coffin lid.
After removing the coffin lid, the rare treasures Shi Tieniu expected did not appear. There were only some rotten cotton wool, and some of them that were not rotten could be seen with exquisite patterns on the surface. These corroded ones
The cotton batting was none other than silk cloth, which was extremely precious at that time.
During the Shang Dynasty, ordinary people could only wear clothes made of animal skins and burlap. Only princes and nobles could use silk to make clothes. At that time, silk was a far more precious item than bronzes and jade.
, and what was inside the coffin at this time was obviously extremely precious fabric at that time. It even had exquisite patterns on it, which was even more rare and valuable.
But of course Shi Tieniu, a big old man, didn't understand this. When he saw that there was nothing in the coffin, he immediately shouted dissatisfied: "What's going on? There's nothing?"
"Haha!" Liu Jinsheng shook his head and said, "Aren't you satisfied that there are so many treasures in the side hall?"
At this time, Liu Jinsheng suddenly felt the consciousness in his upper dantian move, and he couldn't help but paused.
"Huh? My consciousness seems to have sensed something?" Liu Jinsheng frowned slightly, and suddenly the jade pendant that Liu Jinsheng gave him last time flashed through his mind, and he was immediately overjoyed, "Is there something similar to that jade pendant in this coffin?
items?”
Thinking of this, Liu Jinsheng hurriedly reached into the coffin and started groping around.
"Hey! Aren't you saying I'm greedy? Why am I so anxious?" Shi Tieniu said with disdain.
Liu Jinsheng did not respond to him. He took the initiative to activate his consciousness and began to explore inside the coffin. Suddenly, he felt a hard object pressed against his hand.
Suddenly, Liu Jinsheng raised the corners of his mouth, showed a proud smile, and secretly said: "Hey... I found it."
He reached out and took out the hard object. At the same time, he also touched a weapon next to the hard object, which he also took out.
When he took a look in front of the miner's lamp, he was shocked to find that the hard object in his hand turned out to be a seal. Although he couldn't tell what the seal was engraved on, the texture was very hard and had a cold feeling.
The feeling was exactly the same as the green energy Liu Jinsheng felt on the jade pendant before.
The other thing is a short blade. The entire short blade is straight and sharp. When illuminated by the light, it can actually reflect bursts of cold light. On the body of the short blade, there are intersecting lines, intertwined into
Grid-like, it looks very strong and orderly.
"From the Shang Dynasty to the present, after thousands of years of washing, it is still as good as new. This short blade must be at the level of a magic weapon." Liu Jinsheng admired in his heart.
Suddenly, Liu Jinsheng's mind flashed, and a chilly coldness suddenly surged out from the short blade in his hand, suddenly covering his consciousness before Liu Jinsheng had time to react.
"kill……"
"ah……"
For a moment, Liu Jinsheng's eyes turned blood red, and at the same time, there seemed to be bursts of fighting sounds in his ears. He couldn't help but feel that he was inexplicably irritable, and he had the urge to kill others.
Just when he was about to lose control, a chill suddenly came from his upper dantian, which was his consciousness. Suddenly his eyes cleared, and the inexplicable irritability that filled his ears and heart suddenly disappeared.
Liu Jinsheng came back to his senses, shuddered suddenly, and couldn't help but look at the short blade in his hand with horror. "What happened just now?"
"Jinzi, what's wrong with you?" At this time, Shi Tieniu patted him and asked, "Why are you in a daze? Are you okay?"
"No, it's okay!" Liu Jinsheng was confused for a moment, then put away the short blade in his hand, "I like this short blade, give it to me."
"Really! Okay, you can keep it then!" Shi Tieniu curled his lips. Originally, he wanted to see if the thing could be sold for a good price, but since Liu Jinsheng liked it, forget it.
At this moment, Yin Hu suddenly shined the miner's lamp towards the side hall of the ancient tomb and yelled: "Who is it? Come out!"
Hearing the sound, Liu Jinsheng and Shi Tieniu reacted hurriedly, tensed their nerves and became alert in that direction.
Under the watchful eye of the three men, a figure walked out of the side hall. Liu Jinsheng and Dingqing took a look and couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. The other person was none other than Li Changzhu, who was chasing Fu Haibo at first and then disappeared.
"Brother Zhu, it turns out it's you! I thought it was..."
"Oh! What do you think it is?" Li Changzhu asked.
"It's okay, where are the others?" Liu Jinsheng looked around him and asked.
Li Changzhu shook his head and said solemnly: "I don't know, I chased that Fu Haibo to the side hall, and accidentally hit the trap. I fell into the trap, and I managed to escape with great difficulty."
Having said this, he cast his eyes on Shi Tieniu, who was beside Liu Jinsheng. His eyes showed alertness, and he was obviously wary of this stranger who suddenly appeared.
Liu Jinsheng seemed to sense Li Changzhu's hostility towards Shi Tieniu, and hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "Don't be nervous, this is my good brother. He came in with A Yin last time and was trapped in the ancient tomb.
In addition to touching the treasure this time, one of our main purposes is to hope to find him."
Hearing this, Li Changzhu couldn't help but froze for a moment, stared at Liu Jinsheng, and then breathed a sigh of relief, "I didn't expect Brother Liu to be so loyal and willing to take risks for his own brother. I feel ashamed of myself!"
Those who dare to go to ancient tombs to rob tombs are usually desperadoes, and there are those who stab people in the back for money. If you encounter any danger underground, no one can care about others. They only care about themselves, let alone return to the ancient tombs.
Someone was saved inside.
This is why when tomb robbers usually team up, they always find people who are blood relatives with them, because they don't want to be tricked by the other party after they get the treasure.
At this time, Shi Tieniu was also looking at the other person. His eyes converged and he seemed to be thinking about something. As for Yin Hu, he relaxed slightly after seeing the person coming. At the same time, he became more hopeful about going out.
One point, after all, the other party is an expert!
"Did you see what happened just now?" Liu Jinsheng asked.
Li Changzhu stepped forward, frowned, shook his head, and replied, "No, you were already there when I came out, but I think something strange must have happened."
The three of them, Liu Jinsheng, looked at each other, and then he said with a helpless smile: "It's more than weird, I just met a big rice dumpling."
"What! Big Zongzi..." Li Changzhu was startled and looked around hurriedly.
"Don't worry! Zongzi has been solved by us."
Li Changzhu breathed a sigh of relief. This ancient tomb was very evil, and various strange events had been happening since he entered it. Even he, a professional tomb robber, found it difficult.
"Brother Zhu, you are an expert. Let's see who the owner of this tomb is."
At Liu Jinsheng's greeting, Li Changzhu approached the coffin and inspected it. There were many ancient characters carved on the coffin, which Liu Jinsheng could not understand.
After a while, Li Changzhu stood up and said in surprise: "Haha, the identity of this tomb owner is not simple!"
The name of the tomb owner here is Yu Zhong, and there were two Yu Zhongs in history. According to historical records, King Tai of Zhou had three sons, the eldest son Taibo (Tai Bo), the second son Zhong Yong and the youngest son Ji Li. At that time, King Tai of Zhou wanted to
The throne was passed to the third son Ji Li. After Taibo understood his father's intention, he and his second brother Zhongyong took the opportunity to collect medicine for their father and fled to the desolate south of the Yangtze River. They settled in Meili (now Meicun, Wuxi, Jiangsu) and started their own business.
The foundation was established and the ancient kingdom of Gou Wu was established.
Later, the uncle died without any heirs, so he could only pass the position to his younger brother Zhongyong, who was Wu Zhongyong, and Wu Zhongyong was also called Yu Zhong, Wu Zhong, which one.
But this tomb does not belong to this king, but to the second Yu Zhong.
At that time, King Wu defeated Yin Zhou. King Wu sent people to search for the descendants of Zhong Yong, his uncle, and found Zhou Zhang. Zhou Zhang was already the king of Wu at that time, so he still granted him the title of Wu. He also granted Zhou Zhang's younger brother Yu Zhong the title of Xia in the north of Zhou Dynasty.
The former location of the capital was Yu Zhong, and this Yu Zhong ranked among the princes.
At that time, the Jiangsu area happened to be under the jurisdiction of the State of Wu, and Yu Zhong happened to be a prince, which explains why the ancient tombs here were at the princely level.
Just when Liu Jinsheng and others were surprised to learn the true identity of the owner of the ancient tomb, a figure suddenly burst out of the tomb passage. The figure was covered in blood and suffered serious injuries.
As soon as the visitor appeared, he suddenly shouted at Liu Jinsheng and others.
