Chapter 203: Investigating people from 5,000 years ago
After that, Chen Zhi began to wait at home, waiting for news of the investigation from Ye Qiu.
He was even a little nervous in his heart. He had brought this news too easily and was afraid that the secret would surface too easily. By then, he would not know how to face Xiqi and Baoping on Xiqi's throne.
However, what I didn't expect was that the wait this time was unexpectedly long.
The network in Ye Qiu's hands was left behind by Mu He. Those agents were very capable and could capture a lot of important information in just one day.
Chen Zhi remembered what Mu Hyuk said at that time, that if a mouse died in someone's house decades ago, they could also find out the male and female of the mouse.
Chen Zhi has never doubted the abilities of this group of people.
However, this time, things turned out to be unexpectedly difficult.
Ye Qiu first faxed a document, which contained official internal information and several very clear pictures.
Bigan Tomb is located in Bigan Temple Village, 7.5 kilometers northeast of today's Weihui City, Henan Province. It is a national key cultural relic protection unit.
Most of the people in Bigan Village have the surname Lin, which is the so-called descendants of Bigan.
But this cemetery dates back to the earliest times and was canonized by King Wu of Zhou Dynasty. It is the first mound-style tomb in China since records began.
There are many historical relics in this cemetery. The interior layout is square, and there are ancient tombstones and inscribed buildings outside, where emperors, generals and ministers from all dynasties and generations came to pay their respects.
Even the world-famous Saint Kong came here personally and carved the four-character stele "Yin Bigan's Tomb" in his handwriting. It still stands in front of the temple, showing its high status.
Because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty named Bigan's posthumous son the Lin clan, the Lin clan was born from then on.
Therefore, "Bigan Temple" is also the first temple of the Lin family in China.
The Lin family is a common surname in China, and there are many talented and famous people. Every time a person with the Lin family name is promising, they come to pay homage to their ancestors. So far, there are memorials and monuments with 1,800 words inscribed on them, which is quite impressive.
In 645 AD, Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty issued a posthumous edict, conferring Bigan the title of Grand Master of Yin, and wrote a sacrificial inscription.
The famous Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai came here again to compose the epitaph of Taishi Yin.
Later, Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty personally inscribed the words "loyalty and filial piety" and sent it to express his humility and love for his ministers.
Emperors such as Yuan Renzong all issued edicts to carry out large-scale repairs to Bigan Temple...
The purpose is simply to let his subjects see that the emperor respects loyal ministers, and to let his subordinates imitate Bigan and become loyal ministers and good generals.
This Bigan Tomb has been enjoying its glory for more than 5,000 years. Now, it is also a national key cultural relic protection unit recorded by the State Council.
Bigan's honor after death was indeed more glorious than when he was alive.
But this was after all 5,000 years ago. Nowadays, people with the surname Lin are everywhere, and there are also many descendants who claim to be Bigan. Whether it is true or not, there is no way to test it now, and no one is serious...
Ye Qiu then sent a series of documents, including the internal management of Bigan's Tomb, external relations, water and electricity building structure diagrams, management personnel, and even the identity of the cleaning lady. He investigated it, but found nothing suspicious.
Not only that, Ye Qiu also conducted a detailed investigation on the villagers of Bigan Village who claimed to be descendants of Bigan...
Including the identity information of all villagers, external information, and even the source of household registration before the founding of the People's Republic of China, all the recorded history of Bigan Village has been thoroughly investigated, but no valuable clues have been found.
There are many people with the Lin surname who say they are descendants of Bigan, but after investigation, some of them changed their surnames several generations ago.
This land of China has experienced many dynasty changes in 5,000 years, the Five Husbands disrupted China, foreign invasions, and the fusion of various major ethnic groups.
Without external protection, ensuring the inheritance of a bloodline is simply a ridiculous thing.
In short, there are already tens of thousands of people with the surname Lin, and none of them can be confirmed to be of Bigan's bloodline.
Ye Qiu finally said that if Chen Zhi insists on looking, he can only do the deepest DNA culture. Taking samples from the blood of more than one billion Chinese people is such a huge project. It will take more than ten years. The result
It may also be unsatisfactory.
Ye Qiu suggested giving up...
But Chen Zhi was still unwilling to give in. He then called Fat Wei and told Fat Wei what he was thinking, asking Fat Wei to go alone and visit Bigan's tomb...
After Fat Wei received the call from Chen Zhi, he went to Henan from other places at Xingye without any hesitation...
Chen Zhi stayed in Fate Hall and waited.
Every day except watering the flowers with an empty head, I don't think about anything, I just wait for news about Fat Wei.
He no longer believes in anything easily, and he won't accept it if others say it's impossible.
But Fat Wei and Chen Zhi are people whom he absolutely trusts. He knows that Fat Wei will do his best to help him find clues, even if he digs three feet to find clues.
And two weeks later, Fat Wei finally came back...
After he just stepped into the house, Chen Zhi saw that he was covered in dust, dusty and musty, and his face became thinner.
It was now afternoon, Ding Ning went out with his classmates again, and Chen Zhi was the only one at home.
After Fat Wei went back, he picked up the kettle and "Gudong~~Gudong~~" filled half the bottle of water, then turned around and closed the door.
Then he sat on the chair exhausted,
“Ouch, I’m in trouble!
But I'm exhausted. I stayed in that shabby cemetery for three days.
Damn~~, you almost made me die of suffocation." When Fat Wei said this, he gasped again, then he arched his body and looked at Chen Zhi,
"Orange! I really tried my best~~~,
Stop thinking nonsense!
There's nothing fishy about Bigan's Tomb. I've walked around it several times in the past few days and I've made inquiries about everyone around it.
That cemetery is real and was definitely built by King Wu of Zhou Dynasty.
I went in and took a look around. The brick walls inside were all mortared and they were of the same age. The coffin was just a decoration and there was nothing inside.
The tombstones issued by emperors from generation to generation outside are all genuine, and the inscriptions and so on are all correct.
I got in in the middle of the night and hid in the ear chamber at the bottom.
There were so many tourists in that place every day and it was so lively. I was afraid that others would hear me, so I only dared to act in the middle of the night.
Although Bigan's tomb is old, there is no underground chamber underneath, let alone any mechanism. There are only four large square grid tombs.
I have played some ancient battles, and I can clearly understand the structure inside.
If there is something fishy down there, it will never be hidden from my eyes.
Chengzi, please give up this time! There is really nothing left in that place.
When Fat Wei said this, he drank half a bottle of water, and then scratched his head:
"But...
But I always feel that it doesn’t look like a cemetery at all!
When it was built, it didn’t look like a cemetery!
It's a bit like..., a bit like a decoration, just like a museum now!
By the way, it was built for others to see!" After Fat Wei finished speaking, he went to look for water again, as if he had been thirsty for three or four days without drinking water.
"What about those people named Lin outside?",
Chen Zhi asked from the side.
"I heard that there are many people named Lin living in Bigan Village outside. The houses are built very densely and have surrounded the Bigan Tomb in circles.
There are several families among them who claim to be the direct descendants of Bigan..."
