In the narrow and dark east chamber of the coffin, under the strong light of a flashlight, the box of gold cakes shimmered in front of me.
At this moment, in addition to the joy of getting rich, there are also two parts of fear in my heart.
"Bear?"
"Why are these gold cakes engraved with the word "bear"? So the tomb owner's surname is Xiong?"
"Xiong family, Chu Xiong family?"
"Oh my God...which king of Chu is that! All of them have their names in the history books! King Chu You! King Chu Xiang! Wait, etc."
No one would believe it if you tell me. How could a certain king of Chu be buried in a small place like Qiyang! Who is he?
But if there is really a Xiong surnamed king of Chu State, why is there no seal in this big tomb? Why don’t you see the burial pits of chariots and horses? Why don’t you see the nine tripods and eight guis appearing? This is the standard equipment of the monarch, let alone the nine tripods and eight guis now.
Gui, I haven’t even seen a single tripod or Gui so far!
Could it be that the Nine Cauldrons and Eight Gui are hidden in other rooms?
Not sure...but one thing is certain! The owner of this large tomb must have been buried in a hurry. The lack of a rammed earth layer may be because there was not enough time at that time, and the lack of a sealed earth mound may be because the people at that time wanted to hide some secrets.
I was extremely nervous at the moment.
I looked at the time and saw that it was 3:50 in the middle of the night. I definitely didn't have enough time. It would be dawn at most after cleaning the compartment. I speeded up and put the material bag on the rotten lacquer box, along with the gold cakes.
I walked out, and then I touched several pieces of fine jade, including a jade wall engraved with a dragon pattern, a jade ring, a jade sword grid, and most importantly, I touched a portable seal the size of an egg, which was too rusty.
The handwriting on the seal was hard to see clearly. After taking the things, I didn't dare to stay any longer and immediately crawled back.
When I climbed to the entrance of the cave, I reached up and Brother Yu pulled me up.
Seeing me coming out, Dou Sprout immediately covered his nose and said, "Fengzi! You look like you fell into a latrine! It stinks!"
Indeed, I am now covered in thousand-year-old mud, all over my body, clothes and face, and I also exude a sour smell.
He nodded and said, "It's timed out. It's going to be dawn soon. You have to go back before five o'clock. Pack your things quickly and come down in the evening."
A group of us hurriedly packed up the loot and covered up the robbery hole. After going out, one of us carried a sack and threw it on the three-wheeled motorcycle. The intercom called Xiaoxuan, who was still watching, and we went back together.
When we got home at half past five, we piled all kinds of funerary objects on the ground, knitted our heads and frowned, Brother Yu was calm, Douyazai and Xiaoxuan were happy, and as for me... I can't tell how I feel now.
Windfall, this is windfall!
I originally wanted to get a copper pot and tripod, but who would have thought that I would accidentally find so many valuable things! Especially the bronze ban, which is now lying on the ground covered with a sheet, and I don’t dare to open it.
Look! I feel like I am in a dream.
Bean sprout boy Ma Daha, he doesn’t understand the importance of this thing at all. Let’s put it this way, if the relevant departments now know that a Warring States copper fortress has been built in Qiyang, then our group will be in danger.
He raised his head and took a puff of cigarette, frowned and said: "Everyone should be stricter. From now on, no one should take the initiative to mention this matter to the outside world. Once the order is done, I will have no worries about food and clothing for twenty years. If I can't do it,
good......"
We haven't finished the first part, but we know very well that if we don't do it well, we won't have to worry about food and clothing for twenty years.
Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are in heaven, this is the fate of us people.
Afraid?
If it doesn't exist, I'll be afraid of it for five minutes at most.
I carefully rinsed the white jade seal with water, and then I could see clearly the words on it, two words
"Zhang Xun".
The portable seal is like the identity card of the tomb owner, Zhang Xun? I have never heard of this person. Shouldn't his surname be Xiong?
That’s not all yet. We locked the door in the morning, boiled a large pot of water in the courtyard, and treated these heavily rusted bronzes with a greening method. As a result, we found another two-character inscription on a bronze cup.
This new discovery of inscriptions is truly shocking! Even my head was shocked.
The two gilt inscriptions on the cup are clearly...
"Old cud!"
The king of Chu is Fu Chu, and the Xiong family is named Fu Chu! The king of Chu in the middle and late Warring States Period! The son of the famous King Kaolie of Chu!
Qiyang Tomb, the identity of the tomb owner is full of mysteries! According to the seal, the tomb owner is named Zhang Xun, but in his tomb there is a bronze cup that the King of Chu carried the cud! There are also copper bans! Gold cakes! Various exquisite jade articles!
I immediately checked some information on my mobile phone, and found no information about Zhang Xun!
Judging from the data, it seems that this person did not exist in history!
But I know that this man named Zhang Xun must have really existed two thousand years ago! And he had a very close relationship with King Chu of Chu! There are dozens of gold cakes in the tomb, including copper bans and a large number of jade articles! It may be that King Chu
It was given as an exceptional gift to this person for enjoyment.
How dare the common people enjoy the emperor's copper ban?
This situation completely violated social rules at the time! Perhaps because he was afraid of being discovered, he was buried secretly without leaving any traces of earth.
At that time, the Qiyang area in Yongzhou was indeed the territory of the Chu State! This man named Zhang Xun may have lived in this area at that time. Thinking of this, I suddenly thought of another thing.
I hurriedly said: "Head! Last time I took the landlord to watch a play, I heard him mention it! There seems to be a Zhang Gong Village not far from our place! The owner of the tomb is named Zhang Xun. Could there be some kind of connection between them?
relation?"
He thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "It is possible. Anyway, this person's identity is not simple. There are still two compartments that have not been cleared. We must clean them tonight."
Douyazai immediately asked: "Botou, what about other places in the tomb? We don't want the things in the hole in the wall of the tomb passage and the ear chamber? I can't bear to part with it."
I said, "Yazi, what are you thinking about every day? Haven't you noticed yet? There is no aperture in this bell tomb at all! All the funerary objects are basically concentrated in the coffin!"
Dou Yazai said anxiously: "Even if there is no ear chamber! There must be wall holes on both sides of the tomb passage! There must be good things in the wall holes!"
I was stunned, and he said it was possible. The tombs of the Warring States Period in the Western Zhou Dynasty all had the habit of digging out niches, and they usually contained things like oil lamps, small tomb-killing beasts, or human-shaped pottery figurines.
I didn't sleep well for two days, so I rubbed my face vigorously and said, "Hey, after we finish clearing the coffin, why don't you go take a look in the tomb passage?"
Xiaoxuan, who had been listening, frowned and said: "The stone gate is very heavy, I'm afraid it won't be easy to open."
Douyazai immediately ran to Xiaoxuan, pointed at himself and said: "Zhao Xuanxuan! What's wrong with me! Who am I!"
Xiaoxuan held a cigarette between her fingers, glanced at Dou Sprout Zai and said, "You are an idiot."
"you!"
"never mind!"
Douyazai smiled and said: "A good man won't fight with women, and I won't be as knowledgeable as you."
Douyazai said loudly: "We have a kidnapper's needle! If that doesn't work, dig a well and go through the stone gate! If that doesn't work, just put on a detonator and blow it up!"
We were having a heated discussion when we suddenly heard a banging on the door, and then we heard the landlord, Lao Ji, shouting outside: "I've got something for you! Open the door!"
We quickly pushed everything under the bed, then swept the floor and asked me to open the door.
Open the door.
The landlord stood on tiptoes to look in, but I immediately blocked him and said with a smile, "What do you want from us, brother?"
"Haha, it's okay. I just saw that you guys have been mysterious these past two days, so I came to ask, are you really collecting mats?"
My face darkened: "Brother, what do you mean by this? If we don't collect the mats, can we still do anything illegal and disorderly?"
He smiled and said: "I didn't say you did anything illegal, why are you panicking? I mean you collected the mat straw and didn't dry it! You didn't bundle it either! You just piled it up in the yard casually, and it didn't last two days.
It won’t be usable if it gets wet.”
I explained: "It's not that we won't do it! It's just that we have collected it everywhere in the past two days! We haven't had time to do it yet! We thought we would wait until more was collected and finally do it together. That would save time, wouldn't it?"
After chatting at the door for a while, I sent the landlord away. I hurried back into the house and frowned: "Boss, we have to be careful with our goods. This landlord is very observant."
"Did he find anything?"
"It hasn't been discovered yet."
He kept tapping his head and fingers on the table. He thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Just in case, there is an abandoned sweet potato cellar behind the house. Those mats came in handy. Wrap our goods in mats and hide them all.
Go to the waste sweet potato cellar and do it now."
