A quarter of an hour later, the remaining eight people all climbed up to the edge of the corpse pit at the other end.
Among them, only Tian Mingjian and Ailian Hu were slightly out of breath, because one of the two old men was carrying Lao Hei on his back, and the other was carrying the Blue Eyed Rat King.
Climbing up the edge of the pit here, Liu Shiba realized that the vague palaces in the distance were still far away.
Compared with this allusion of running to death at Wangshan Mountain, it looks very close, but in fact there is still a long distance.
"Eighteen! What to do now?"
Cao Xiong took a breath and asked.
Liu Shiba glanced back and saw the backs of Luo Zhan and Zhu Yingtai disappearing into the computer room at the corner of the corpse pit opposite.
"You guys should take a rest where you are. Lao Cao and I, along with Lao Hei and Bi Yan, will explore the way ahead."
Liu Shiba looked at everyone and said.
"Well! Be careful yourself."
Ning Min'er warned softly.
She had no objection to Liu Shiba going to explore the road. It was something that had to be done. If something happened in front, the people behind could still rescue him. It was the most unwise behavior to line up and go forward together.
The edge of the pit on this side is actually no different from that on the back. The only thing is that the corridor is wider and looks more sinister and dark because there are no lighting installed by the Japanese here.
Maybe the Japanese have never set foot near the edge of the pit here.
Liu Shiba and Cao Xiong turned on the miner's lamp on their helmets and cautiously explored the way forward. Lao Hei and Bi Yan were five meters in front of them...
"Old Cao, who do you think the man in black standing here just now could be? Is he a friend or an enemy?"
Liu Shiba looked around as he walked.
Cao Xiong's eyes flickered and he slowly shook his head and said:
"I don't know who it is, but I can be sure for the time being that there is no malicious intent."
"My heart is beating so hard now. Do you think we are robbing a tomb this time? It's a big tomb, haha!"
Liu Shiba pretended to smile casually.
"How can it be so simple? We are still on the periphery."
Cao Xiong laughed when he heard this, and then said:
"There is a motto for tomb robbers that has been passed down for a long time: there is a right way to rob, which means that tomb robbers must follow the rules and not do anything random.
Most common thieves are just small-time thieves. Real tomb robbers have high knowledge, unique methods, or extraordinary abilities.
These people have a vicious vision and are targeting some royal tombs in China!
For example, Tang Jili may be such a person, who is proficient in identifying antiques, has strong financial support, and has high-tech assistance.
However, how can it be so easy to rob Daling?
Ancient emperors or princes all put a lot of effort into preventing theft. To steal a mausoleum requires a lot of manpower and material resources, or a protective umbrella, to succeed. You are just getting started now!"
Liu Shiba smiled self-deprecatingly and said:
"I can't help it this time. I got news about my father from the will left by my grandfather. No matter what, I have to come and take a look.
By the way, Lao Cao, what do you think of Qin Shihuang’s Mausoleum? The one in Lishan is fake, but is this one real?"
Cao Xiong was silent for a while after hearing this, and slowly explained in a gloomy voice: "Now that we are all here, we will definitely not return empty-handed! As for whether this is true or not, if I think about it, this must be true.
There are many imperial mausoleums in Chinese history, such as Qianling Mausoleum, Maoling Mausoleum, Yue Wang Mausoleum, Chu Wang Mausoleum at Lion Mountain, Liu Bei's Hui Mausoleum, Cao Cao's Tomb under Liujiatun, Ming Dynasty Ming Dynasty Tombs, Qing Tombs, etc.
However, the largest imperial mausoleum in China is none other than the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang. The construction of the mausoleum began as soon as Qin Shihuang ascended the throne. It took 40 years and 800,000 people participated in the construction of the mausoleum.
If the one in Lishan is just a fake mausoleum, then the mausoleum described by Sima Qian must be the one hidden under the base in front of us.
Sima Qian recorded: When the First Emperor came to the throne, more than 700,000 people from all over the world were sent to him, passed through three springs, and placed a bronze coffin.
The palace was filled with hundreds of officials, rare weapons, and strange treasures, and the craftsmen were ordered to make crossbow arrows, and those who got close would shoot at them.
Use mercury as the rivers, lakes and seas, imbue them with mechanisms, astronomy at the top, geography at the bottom, and human ointment as a candle to save the immortal for a long time.
Such a majestic Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, its true location has never been discovered and opened for two thousand years, and it has been preserved to this day.
But the reason for this, apart from being a cunning rabbit with three caves, is also because it was built too solidly.
The old man is also excited now, the largest and most mysterious underground palace in the world is about to be revealed in front of us."
Speaking of his happiness, Cao Xiong was a little elated...
Liu Shiba stared at Cao Xiong and was about to say something, but he heard Cao Xiong fell violently and shouted miserably:
"What is this? Why is it lying in the middle of the road?"
Quickly shining the miner's lamp forward, Liu Shiba discovered that Cao Xiong's hand was resting on a black stone tablet and he couldn't help rubbing it.
The stone tablet is about half a meter high and half buried underground. There seems to be some words engraved on the tablet.
Those characters should be Chinese characters. Some Liu Shiba recognized them, but some of them seemed not to be Chinese characters.
Liu Shiba frowned and knelt down, and he and Cao Xiong got closer and took a closer look.
Hearing Cao Xiong's screams, Lao Hei and Bi Yan quickly turned back and squatted beside Liu Shiba.
Liu Shiba looked at it for a long time and finally understood what those Chinese characters meant. The rest had more weird glyphs.
"What nonsense is written here?"
Liu Shiba murmured in a low voice.
Just when Liu Shiba was wondering, he heard Cao Xiong talking:
"The Commander of the Japanese Empire Base, Colonel Eijiro Naka, died here in the battle, in the 17th year of the Showa Period."
Japanese?
No wonder he didn’t understand, Liu Shiba slapped his head!
"Old Cao, do you know Japanese? Why the hell can't you tell? Are you also a Japanese spy?"
Liu Shiba joked.
Cao Xiong rolled his eyes and said:
"Is it unusual for an old man to know so many Japanese people after he has lived for so long? Let me tell you, before I became a student of your grandfather, I was still a college student at Kyoto University!"
Hearing Cao Xiong's explanation, Liu Shiba suddenly felt a little bad. He had worked hard for several years to get a second degree?
You Cao Xiong, a charlatan and a fortune teller, is actually a serious college student?
"Okay Shiba, don't worry about this for me. I think this should be a tombstone, and the person buried should be a Japanese colonel. He was not a young official.
He should be the commander of the base. Unexpectedly, he crossed the corpse pit and arrived here?
The rank of colonel is equivalent to the rank of senior colonel in China, and the one above it is major general. Which year in the Gregorian calendar should the Seventeenth Year of Showa be?"
Cao Xiong frowned as he spoke.
Liu Shiba usually loves antiques and can clearly remember the dates and major events of past dynasties, let alone this small issue.
"The 17th year of the Showa era should be 1943."
Liu Shiba said lightly, and then explained:
"Emperor Showa is the 124th emperor of Japan. His real name is Hirohito and his title is Dinomiya.
He is the longest-lived and longest-reigning emperor in Japan, ruling for sixty-three years.
During Hirohito's reign, he directed and planned Japan's successive war of aggression against China and the Pacific War.
It invaded and trampled on China, Southeast Asia, and more than a dozen countries around the Pacific.
In August 1945 of the last century, Hirohito issued an end-of-war edict, representing the unconditional surrender of the Japanese Empire.
And the date on this stone tablet is exactly the time during Hirohito's reign. At that time, Japan had not yet surrendered..."
As he talked, Liu Shiba felt an inexplicable chill down his spine, as if something bad was about to happen...
"Old Cao, step back, there is a problem here."
Liu Shiba warned cautiously.
Cao Xiong looked up in surprise and said strangely:
"Is there no problem? I see that your face looks like that of a rich man. It's okay!"
A trace of black energy flashed across Liu Shiba's face, and he smiled sinisterly:
"Old Cao, don't blame me for not reminding you. Since the Japanese died here, let me tell you who wrote this stone tablet and the words on it?"
Cao Xiong was shocked when he heard this and quickly stood up and took three steps back...
