Chapter 112: The Bronze Gate
Sun Rui stood in front of the bronze door more than three meters high, his whole body trembling uncontrollably, not only shocked, but also excited.
It's been two months, two whole months, thousands of them have been hiding in this desolate Xiqi Mountain, almost digging three feet into the ground but not even digging a single pottery tile, and today they finally got their wish.
The tomb of the ancient period, this is the tomb of the ancient period! It is definitely a discovery that shocks the past and the present, and it is a discovery that has never been made before! Sun Rui seems to have seen countless honors and bonuses, and he is flying towards him with wings.
Until a staff member next to him asked him: "Team Sun, what is engraved on this bronze door? It seems to be a text, right?"
Only then did he come back to his senses and carefully examine the incomparably heavy bronze door.
As the excavation progressed, the originally verdant surface of the bronze door began to oxidize as soon as it touched the air, and the color quickly became dull, but it did not affect the shock it brought to people in the slightest.
The bronze door on the opposite side is carved with intricate patterns, and in the middle of the left and right doors, there is a hieroglyphic pattern from top to bottom, lined up.
There are similarities and differences between the two patterns on the left and right, and although everyone doesn't know why, they all have a feeling, as if they just stare at this pattern for a long time, they will feel a kind of impact that hits the soul, making people in a trance.
"This one...... I don't know, ask Lao Pan, eh! Lao Pan, what kind of words do you see engraved on that door?" Sun Rui was a little embarrassed, although he was the nominal captain of this archaeological team, in fact, those who were familiar with him knew that the ink in his stomach was pitiful. That is to say, he has a set of sophistication in dealing with human affairs, can pull resources, and can win people's hearts, so he is the captain of the archaeological team.
"I'll see. After Pan Heping finished speaking, he raised his head, pushed his glasses, and began to carefully study the two lines of text, but after a while, he frowned, obviously he didn't know this kind of text.
"This is the text of ancient times, which translates roughly as 'Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are dogs, and saints are unkind, and people are dogs'. At this moment, Elder Peng stepped forward, walked to his side, and said lightly.
"Wow! Teacher Peng is really knowledgeable, I only know a little about this kind of ancient writing, but I didn't expect you to even know this, admire and admire! It's just that as far as I know, all the cultural relics left over from the ancient period are in the hands of the descendants of the ancient seven clans, could it be that Elder Peng, you are also one of them?"
Pan Heping has been dealing with the history and culture of the ancient period for half his life, and he knows a little about the affairs of the upper-ranking seven clans, but he doesn't care about Elder Peng's identity at this time, he just wants to know how he knows this.
It's just that the speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional, and as soon as he said this, several people around him pricked up their ears and leaned in this direction. Pan Heping didn't care about Elder Peng's identity, they were very curious.
Elder Peng and his entourage of five people were directly parachuted into the archaeological team as consultants for this operation at the beginning of the excavation work, and it is said that the information about this ancient tomb was provided by them at the earliest.
It's just that this group of five people is extremely low-key, and they hardly leave their tents except for meetings that they have to attend. But even so, no one in the entire archaeological team dared to underestimate them, because the insights they put forward were very good every time, and the suggestions they provided often proved to be feasible.
"Well, well, the old man does have some relationship with them. It's just a long story, so I won't delay everyone's time here. Elder Peng was also stunned, obviously he didn't expect this Pan Heping to be able to think so much at once, but after all, he was a person who had experienced strong winds and waves, so he cleverly avoided this topic in just a few words.
Seeing that everyone couldn't get any valuable information, the soul of gossip gradually cooled down.
"By the way, we found the door of this tomb, but now how to open it?" Sun Rui was originally a member of this gossip team, and although he was disappointed at this time, he finally had the heart to care about the actual problems in front of him.
"Once this kind of bronze gate begins to oxidize, its strength will drop significantly, and it will definitely be possible to break through the door through some violent means. "It's an engineer who speaks.
This bronze gate itself is a rare relic of ancient relics, which must be preserved, and it must be preserved very completely, which will be an important material for us to study ancient culture in the future. When Pan Heping heard this, he immediately became anxious.
"But Lao Pan, what if this door can't be opened? Do we just let this great opportunity in front of us not cherish it, and finally let others take the lead? So I think, take a look first, if there is really no way, breaking the door is also a choice in the end. After all, Sun Rui is the leader of the archaeological team, and what he said at this time is still quite weighty, although Lao Pan still wants to say something more, but he didn't open his mouth after all.
"You don't have to argue, I think this bronze gate will open on its own soon. At this time, it was Elder Peng who spoke, and he stretched out his hand and pointed to the pair of beast head knockers on the bronze door, motioning for everyone to take a look.
Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and saw that the base of the knocker of the beast's head the size of a human face flickered, as if a colorful band of light appeared, and the band of light rotated clockwise from the 12 o'clock position of the knocker all the way along the edge of the base, and at this time it had turned to the 9 o'clock position.
Several people present were well-informed, and when they saw this situation, they already had a guess in their hearts. It seemed that as long as the colorful light band turned around and returned to the direction of 12 o'clock, something would definitely happen.
The white clouds drifted in the sky, and the warm sunlight once again penetrated the clouds and hit the bronze door, and the colorful light band on the base of the door knocker began to slowly rotate again.
10 o'clock, 11 o'clock...... 12 o'clock.
Finally, two door knockers, two bases, and two colorful halos have been fully formed.
At this moment, there seemed to be an ethereal sound of bells and drums beating from inside the bronze door, and everyone's faces were in a trance, as if they were listening to a sermon by a saint, and they only felt that their souls seemed to be sublimated at this moment.
"Squeak-"
In the pious and fiery eyes of everyone, the bronze gate really moved, although it only moved slowly, although the sound was extremely harsh, but it fell on everyone's ears, like a beautiful sound of heaven.
"Everyone, hurry back!" The first to react was Sun Rui, who stood at the front, and it was also the first time to see the black crack in the door that had just opened.
Generally speaking, this kind of ancient tomb, because it is isolated from the world for many years, will suddenly open some poisonous gases from inside. After all, Sun Rui is the captain of an archaeological team, and he is also experienced in this area, so at this time, he reflexively commanded everyone to retreat, just in case.
