After the first hall after the Broken Dragon Stone, Wang Lao and Liu Yue were stunned, even Zhao Yong, who had no literary and artistic cells, was stunned after seeing the exquisite murals on the rock walls on all sides.After a long time, Wang Lao Cai said tremblingly: "National treasure!
An absolute national treasure mural!
”Liu Yue also shook his head and said: "Teacher Wang, these murals are much better than the guest envoy map, polo map, hunting travel map, tomb of Prince Yide, honor guard map, and palace maid map of Princess Yongtai's tomb!"
I've never seen such a beautiful tomb mural, and the scale is second to none in China.Especially after more than a thousand years, it is rare that these murals can still remain so complete and beautiful. ”At this time, Wang Lao had gradually recovered, and he thought for a while before he said, "It seems that the excavation work of this Wu Zetian Mausoleum needs to be suspended.The tomb itself is sealed, so even after more than 1,000 years, it can still be preserved very well.But if this ancient tomb is excavated, once these murals come into contact with the outside air, I am afraid that it will not take a few minutes to destroy all of them. ”Liu Yue picked up the camera and began to shoot the murals on the four rock walls, and the more he shot, the more he muttered.Such exquisite murals are a treasure from heaven for archaeologists.In the eyes of outsiders, these murals may just be beautiful and valuable, but for archaeologists like them, through these murals, they can analyze the cultural characteristics of the Wu and Zhou periods, and can even combine other historical materials to analyze the folk ecology of the Wu and Zhou periods.For these archaeologists, graphics and fonts are the most precious treasures.In addition to these beautiful murals, they also photographed the mechanical power that uses the water of the dark river to drive it.For this kind of mechanism that can still exert its power after more than a thousand years, Wang Lao and Liu Yue are also amazed.As for Zhao Yong, he couldn't wait to go in and take a closer look at how these mechanisms were designed and built.In fact, even after more than a thousand years, these mechanisms can still maintain sufficient power, and it has a lot to do with the fact that the tomb has been sealed, and if the tomb is excavated, it is difficult to say how long these mechanisms can be maintained under oxidation.It was not easy to come in once, especially after seeing these murals, Wang Lao knew very well that it was almost impossible to excavate this Wu Zetian Mausoleum.The state will never destroy such a precious fresco, and would rather not excavate this ancient tomb than allow the destruction of these exquisite murals.Therefore, Wang Lao and Liu Yue are here to watch very carefully and seriously.Even the two of them weren't sure when the next time they would come in, so they might as well take advantage of this opportunity to appreciate it for a while.If it weren't for the fact that there was something more important waiting for them in the back, they might both have stayed here until the compressed air bottle ran out of air.This time, the equipment they used was provided by the military.It's like this small air compression bottle, but it can provide an adult with nearly three hours of breathing time.Now that they've been in the water, it's been almost an hour, so there's still two hours left for them at most.Under Yang Jing's urging, Wang Lao and the others reluctantly left here, and then followed Yang Jing into the core area of Wu Zetianling.The first thing I saw was naturally the stone platform where Yuechengzi sat back then, but when Yang Jing first came, he had already collected all the remains of Yuechengzi and put them into a wooden box made of Jin Sinan's gloomy wood, and this box was still the box that Yang Jing found from Mu Tianbo's treasure back then to hold those gems, and finally Yang Jing vacated a remains used to hold Yuechengzi."
What is in this box is the remains of Yue Chengzi, the last time I came here, the remains of Yue Chengzi sat on this stone platform, and the jade seal of the country was in his arms.I took the heirloom jade seal and finally put his remains in this box. ”Wang Lao and Liu Yue folded their hands in front of the box and bowed, and then they focused on the stone tablet next to the stone platform.This stele is the second stele carved by Yue Chengzi, compared to the previous stele, there is a lot more content recorded on this stele, and this stele is still carved in the inscription, so Yang Jing needs to translate the content of this stele for Wang Lao.Liu Yue took the camera and carefully photographed the inscription while listening to Yang Jing's translation.In fact, the content recorded on this inscription is nothing more than that Yue Chengzi traveled the world after leaving Wangwu Mountain, and accidentally got a secret scroll, and knew the general location of a mausoleum built by Wu Zetian back then, and then it took Yue Chengzi six years to find here, so he used this place as a secret base for him, and built a Yue Cheng Temple outside the entrance.The following is a record of how Yuechengzi Yuechengzi met Li Congke, how he was valued by Li Congke, and how he was summoned by Li Congke to Beijing after Li Congke ascended the throne and became the late emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty.It focuses on the process of how to get the national seal.After Yue Chengzi drank the wine given by Li Congke, because he secretly took the antidote he configured, he was not poisoned on the spot, but saw Li Congke with his wife, children and old mother, sitting on the Xuanwu Tower with the jade seal of the country in his hand, and then ordered the guards of the forbidden army to set fire to the Xuanwu Tower.Because Li Congke threw himself into the fire, the entire Luoyang Palace was in chaos, and the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace took advantage of the chaos to loot many treasures and escaped, but no one came to Xuanwu Tower because of the fire.After the fire was extinguished, Yuechengzi secretly found the jade seal that had not been burned, and then quietly slipped out of Luoyang Palace and returned to Yuechengguan.However, because the residual poison has not been cleared, Yue Chengzi has not been known for a long time, and left a stone tablet in the cave hall outside, and restarted these mechanisms, and finally came here alone, after carving this stone tablet, holding the jade seal of the country and waiting for death to come.The content recorded on this inscription has clearly explained how Yue Chengzi got the jade seal of the country back then, if these two inscriptions are true, then the authenticity of the jade seal of the country has been unmistakable.Although Wang Lao didn't know much about the inscription, he also knew some of the inscription, and he had no doubt that Yang Jing would cheat in translation, after all, these things had already been recorded and photographed, and after going back, he would find an expert who was proficient in the inscription to translate it, and he would know whether the content recorded on this tablet was true or false.Like the previous stele, after Liu Yue finished shooting, he used the tools he carried with him to remove a little bit of powder from an inconspicuous place in this stele, and used it for carbon 14 identification after he returned.Only when it is confirmed in time that these two inscriptions were left by Yuechengzi more than 1,000 years ago, can the authenticity of the national seal be finally confirmed.After doing all this work, Yang Jing led the three of them to the burial chamber where the burial goods should have been placed.Obviously, if the gate has not been closed, then naturally there is no burial goods, and there is not even a gate, I am afraid that it has not been completed.If there is no completed burial chamber, it is naturally impossible to place burial goods.These tombs were naturally empty, and the contents had long been looted by Yang Jing.And those tombs without gates, in fact, originally had gates, but those gates belonged to the kind of real broken dragon stones that could not be reopened once they fell, and the burial goods had been placed in the previous tombs, so the broken dragon stones had already been put down, and even Yue Chengzi did not open the doors of these tombs back then.However, when Yang Jing first came, he had the big killer weapon of storage space, and the doors of these tombs couldn't stop him at all, so he directly took away all these gates.That's why it creates the illusion that these tombs haven't even had their doors repaired.Of course, Yang Jing couldn't admit these things, he just said that when he first came in, this place was already like this.Obviously, the reason why these tombs were empty was that there were originally burial goods inside, but they were taken away by Yue Chengzi; Otherwise, Wu Zetian didn't have time to put the funeral goods inside at all.Wang Lao believes in the latter more.After all, except for some important funerary goods, most of the funerary goods will be buried in the tomb with the emperor after his death.As for Yang Jing taking these burial goods, Wang Lao never thought about it at all.He had just finished walking through this ancient tomb, so he naturally knew that this ancient tomb was so complicated and dangerous, if there were a large number of burial goods here, it would be absolutely impossible for Yang Jing to get these burial goods out alone.After all, the more precious Dayu Jiuding and Qin Twelve Golden People are here!
The first time Yang Jing came, he only brought out the jade seal of the country, which was the most normal performance.The situation of the burial chamber was naturally photographed by Liu Yue at all, and one of the main tasks he followed this time was to shoot everything he saw."
Elder Wang, there is another layer of burial chamber below, which should be the main burial chamber, but it is all empty inside, and the burial chamber next to the main burial chamber is also empty, we can go down and have a look in a while.Well, this burial chamber is the last burial chamber on this level, and it is another important target of our visit!
”Yang Jing pointed to the tomb that did not fall off the tomb door and said, and then took the lead in walking in.In the last tomb on this floor, Wang Lao and the others finally saw Wu Zetian's imitation of Dayu Jiuding and Qin Twelve Golden People.
