Wu Zhongyuan agreed with Wang Xinran's suggestion, but he couldn't foresee what kind of problems he might encounter later, because he didn't know what these warriors did after they appeared in various eras, nor did he know where they were buried after they died, let alone what twists and turns he might encounter in the process of finding these warriors.

After waiting for a while, Wu Zhongyuan didn't speak, Wang Xinran said, "Forget it, you don't have to worry about it, I'll deal with it." ”

"Don't have too many people. Wu Zhongyuan said.

"Hmm. Wang gladly responded.

During the flight, Wang Xinran had been busy communicating and receiving various clues from the headquarters, including the funeral system of the Yuan Dynasty, the number of Wu Lu's commanders that year, the cause of Wu Lu's death, and the location of Wu Lu's possible burial.

Most of the funerals in the Yuan Dynasty were thinly buried, this is because the Yuan Dynasty was in power by the Mongols, and they did not have the concept that the Han people died as if they were alive, and in their opinion, people died like lights out, so they rarely built large mausoleums for the dead, and there were few burial goods in the tombs, and few tombs were erected, to put it bluntly, most of them buried the dead without graves, and rarely erected tombstones in front of the graves, and the direct consequence of such funeral characteristics was that their tombs were difficult to find.

The source of the clues is very broad, the clues themselves are not specific, many clues are indirect, taking Wu Lu's cause of death as an example, most historians who find clues believe that he was killed by cannons, the reason why this conclusion is because Tubo had previously submitted to the Yuan Dynasty, in order to help Tubo deal with other tribes that had not surrendered, the Yuan Dynasty had supported them with five cast iron cannons.

In other historical events, there are records of the use of cannons to defend the city, and after the rebellion of the Tibetans occupied Jiezhou, Wu Lu was the side that led the army to attack the city.

This is not counting, but also combined with Wu Lu's personal situation, when Guangwei general Qian Yunzhi once wrote a letter to ask for merit for Wu Lu, the content of this recital was found by historians, which contains Qian Yunzhi's evaluation of Wu Lu, according to Qian Yunzhi, Wu Lu must take the lead in every battle, charge ahead, invincible, and be able to brave the rain of arrows to rush to the enemy without being injured by arrows.

Historians judged from this that Wu Lu moved very fast, and it was difficult for ordinary weapons to hurt him, except for artillery with a large attack range.

The conclusion drawn in this way is not rigorous, but more than seven hundred years ago, Wu Lu is not a very famous person, there are not many records about him in history, it is impossible to be rigorous, even if it is not rigorous clues, it is not easy to get.

In addition, officials of different levels in the Yuan Dynasty enjoyed different funeral regulations, Wu Lu was a four-rank military attache when he died, and the military attache of this level was basically buried wherever he died, according to the location of the war that year, historians deduced the approximate area where Wu Lu might be buried, and even the size of the tomb and the depth of the burial were also inferred.

Two hours later, the plane landed, and the two changed into cars and rushed to the suspected location.

The reason why such a judgment was made was the joint efforts of historians and archaeologists, first of all, they deduced the marching route that Wu Lu led the troops to quell the rebellion, and then deduced that Wu Lu attacked the east gate of Jiezhou City.

On the hill three miles to the southeast, a large number of bones have been unearthed, these bones are neatly unearthed, and the armor unearthed with the bones shows that they are soldiers of the Yuan army, and they were buried here by their comrades after they died in battle, and if they were buried by the enemy, they would not be stacked so neatly.

During the Yuan Dynasty, there was only one large-scale battle here, so historians believe that since this is the place where the corpses of Yuan soldiers are buried, it is very likely that Wu Lu was also buried here.

This hill is now a wasteland, and when the two arrived, there were already many people busy there, these people were not soldiers or policemen, but a group of exploration technicians, who were inserting poles everywhere in the area with a diameter of 500 meters to pull wires, the poles were metal poles, and the lines were metal wires.

What they were looking for was a large piece of iron, and the big axe that Wu Lu used before his death was a steel metal, and the experts deduced that the big axe he used should be buried with it, and this is what they are looking for now.

The sound of the metal detector is different depending on the metal, and there seems to be a large amount of steel metal in this area, and even with the advanced equipment used, it is difficult to analyze which place is the suspicious location in a short period of time.

While the technicians were busy, several explorers with instruments were brought in, and these people carried instruments specifically to find underground water sources.

Why these people came, Wu Zhongyuan didn't know, and after asking Wang Xinran, it suddenly dawned on him that Wu Lu was a drunkard, and every time there was a war, he would definitely drink a lot of alcohol. In addition, although Wu Lu died in the battle of Jiezhou, the battle ended with the victory of the Yuan army, Wu Lu's commanders did not deduct the salaries of their subordinates like other generals, and they were all the first soldiers in the battle, so his subordinates should respect him very much, and after capturing Jiezhou, there were reasons and conditions to use a lot of wine to bury Wu Lu.

The later group of technicians did not come to look for water, but for wine.

Three meters underground, where there are steel-like metals and liquids, it may be where Wu Lu's tomb is located.

Soon, technicians zeroed in on a suspected location, located in a bush on the mountainside.

Pushing aside the shrubs, Wu Zhongyuan and Wang Xinran looked at each other, there was a round hole with a diameter of about five centimeters on the ground, and the soil outside the hole was still wet, and the round hole went straight to the ground.

"Why are they so fast?" Wu Zhongyuan was surprised, his own experts and scholars could already be described as thinking carefully and being extremely frightened, but the other party still took the lead.

"Maybe not much faster than us," Wang said happily, "and they are using the Luoyang shovel to determine the location of the tomb, and they haven't had time to dig it yet." ”

"This is not the Luoyang shovel," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "The Luoyang shovel has a cover on the outside, which will leave indentations on the ground when exploring, and there are no circular indentations around this hole." ”

Instead of meaningless speculation, it is better to verify and determine, there is official support, what you want, and soon the extended internal probe was sent, probing down the hole, extending about three meters down, blocked by gray bricks.

The picture on the display screen made the two of them overjoyed, the round hole did not enter the tomb, and whatever was in the tomb was intact.

The question facing the two at the moment was whether to dig up this tomb, and after deliberation, Wang Xinran chose a compromise method, using equipment to drill through the brick wall and see what was inside.

In the evening, the drilling equipment drilled through the gray bricks, which were thinner than the two expected, with only two layers, and white ash in the middle.

The burial chamber is very well preserved, but it is very shabby, only one zhang square, very small and very short, there is no coffin in the burial chamber, the bones are wrapped in leather and other things, there are many wine jars placed around the bones, there is a big axe that has rotted off the handle of the axe on the left and right sides of the bones, which is the best proof of the identity of the owner of the tomb.

It is not difficult to dig up this tomb, but Wang Xinran did not do that, because China's attitude towards ancient tombs is rescue excavation, although the matter is urgent, but also to minimize the damage to the ancient tomb.

The extended camera has a remote control function, remote control, and slowly peels off the severely decayed leather outside the bones, revealing the bones inside.

First of all, it can be determined that this corpse is Wu Lu, but the cause of his death was not killed by a cannon, but by an arrow, and there is an obvious arrow hole left by a medium arrow in the center of the brow of the corpse.

There are already several corpses with similar genetic mutations, and the main purpose of the two of them is to find the spirit stone that belongs to Wu Lu, but after carefully looking around the bones and all over the tomb, they did not find the existence of the spirit stone.

Eventually, they decided to dig up the graves, as the jars were sealed and they couldn't be sure what was inside.

After digging up the graves, the two opened the wine jars one by one, and found that most of the wine jars were empty, and the ones that were not empty were only a little muddy black water, and they searched all the corners of the tomb, and there was no shadow of the spirit stone.

Finding Wu Lu's grave was a great accident, to put it bluntly, it was all about luck, but now it seems that the luck of the two is not good enough, and they finally found the grave, and there was no spirit stone in the tomb.

On the left side of the bones, scattered some beads the size of fingernails, this bead is not white, but blue, archaeology is no stranger to this material, this is not Hetian jade, but lapis lazuli, a kind of jade from Afghanistan.

There were a total of twelve lapis lazuli beads scattered around, Wang Xinran picked them up, looked at them one by one, and when he saw the third one, he handed the beads to Wu Zhongyuan, "There are words on it." ”

Wu Zhongyuan stretched out his hand to take it, only to see a small character engraved on the bead, "Cloud ......"
