Chapter 500: The Truth of the Stone Tablet
Directly opposite the coffin, on a point platform, a huge general figurine stood there quietly, burly, wearing armor, standing majestically, holding the sword hanging from his waist in his right hand, his body exuding a shocking murderous aura, looking at the coffin opposite with a cold expression.
"These are the Terracotta Warriors, so the existence of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses will be pushed back hundreds of years, until the Warring States Period?" said an old professor with gray hair, looking at the spectacular scene in front of him, incredulously.
"The real tiger and wolf army is murderous, and they are all warriors who are a hundred. "Leng Yi, as the god of war, pays more attention to the momentum of the terracotta warriors.
"Leng Yi, don't you think there seems to be something wrong with the scene in front of you?" said Ou Cheng with a frown.
"Isn't that right?" Leng Yi didn't understand what Ou Cheng meant.
"Yes, these terracotta warriors always feel weird. Ou Cheng said.
Leng Yi took a closer look, and immediately felt that something was wrong, so he said: "These terracotta warriors and horses don't seem to be protecting this coffin, but confronting this coffin, it seems that they are imprisoning this coffin. ”
"Yes, you're right, that's the feeling, it looks like something must have happened here. Ou Cheng nodded and said.
When the people around heard the conversation between Leng Yi and Ou Cheng, they also looked at the terracotta warriors and coffins in front of them.
"There is a huge stone tablet next to the coffin, I think it will record the origin of these terracotta warriors and coffins, why don't we go over and have a look?" Leng Yi said.
"Let's go over and see. Everyone nodded. I also want to be anxious to understand what kind of place this is, and how can the terracotta warriors and horses of the Qin Dynasty appear?
The group came to the side of the stone stele, and before they had time to look at it, they heard a shocked voice coming: "This coffin turned out to be a yellow intestine inscription." ”
"Old Yang, are you decided?" asked Ou Cheng with a serious face.
"I have studied the coffins of ancient emperors for decades, and naturally I will not be mistaken, this is the legendary yellow intestine inscription. The man known as Lao Yang said with great certainty.
Leng Yi was a little curious, the man named Lao Yang, a thin old man, with gray hair and thick glasses, sometimes Leng Yi couldn't help but sigh at the strange hobby of these archaeological experts, who actually liked to study coffins.
'Yellow intestine inscription' is a coffin chamber used by the emperor at the first level, and the highest level. That is, the coffin chamber is a frame-shaped structure made of cypress trees around it. Yellow intestine refers to the yellow heart of the cypress, that is, the yellow heart of the cypress used in the coffin room. The inscription refers to the fact that the ends of the fir are all pointing inward, that is, the firwood built by the four walls is perpendicular to the wall plate surface of the coffin chamber on the same side, and if you look at it from the inside, only the ends of the firwood are seen on the four walls.
It can be seen that the 'yellow intestine inscription' is a wooden structure located outside the coffin, and it is made of yellow cypress hearts. The yellow intestine is a cypress wood piled up outside the coffin, and the inscription constructed with cypress wood is called the 'yellow intestine inscription'.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, the 'Yellow Intestine Inscription' has appeared, which is for the burial of the Son of Heaven, and the princes are not allowed to enjoy it. During the Warring States Period, the princes no longer took the Zhou royal family seriously, and the royal tombs of various countries successively used the 'yellow intestine inscription' tombs. From this, we can see the identity and status of the owner of the tomb.
Since it was determined to be a tomb with a 'yellow intestine inscription', everyone was immediately attracted to it, and they forgot to see the tombstone for a while.
Leng Yi was not interested in this, and couldn't help but secretly despise: "It's just burying a dead person, and making so many tricks." ”
"This kind of tomb is still exclusive to the emperor's family, and the rest of the people want to use it, so they have to be copied all over the house. As an expert in this area, Lao Yang is naturally happy to introduce it to everyone.
"Since it is dedicated to the emperor's family, could it be that this thousand-year-old tomb is hidden by the emperor who hid his grave in this place?" asked everyone with a fiery heart.
You must know that the discovery of an emperor's tomb and the discovery of a prince's tomb are two different things.
"During the Warring States Period, the system was chaotic, the Zhou royal family was like an ornament, and it was no longer able to call on the world, and many princes had already used the tomb of 'Yellow Intestine Inscription', so it was still difficult to determine the identity of the person in the coffin with only 'Yellow Intestine Inscription'. Lao Yang said.
"Old Qin, you have studied the writing of the Qin State during the Warring States Period, look at what is written on that stone tablet, maybe we can understand the identities of these people. Ou Cheng hurriedly said.
An expert known as Lao Qin immediately came to the stele, carefully looking at the Qin characters on the stele, although he was an expert, there were still many words he didn't know, and he needed to confirm and check them one by one.
There is the existence of Bai Qi, Leng Yizhi looked at it once, and he understood what was going on with these terracotta warriors and coffins.
It turned out that Gongzi Hui was indeed buried in this 'Yellow Intestine Inscription', Gongzi Hui rebelled, and was finally suppressed by the general Sima Cuo, and Gongzi Hui was killed, but at that time, the King of Qin took into account the brotherhood on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was also to show his generosity, appease the princes and princes, and ordered the burial of Gongzi Hui, and allowed the use of the 'Yellow Intestine Inscription' This highest-level burial method.
At the same time, the ancients were very superstitious, and the king of Qin felt that even if Gongzi Hui was buried thickly, he was afraid that he would come out to make trouble after his death, so he ordered craftsmen to pour terracotta warriors and horses around Gongzi Hui's coffin to suppress Gongzi Hui. The general warrior who took the lead was Sima Cuo, the general who suppressed Gongzi Hui at the beginning.
The expert known as Lao Qin did have two brushes, and it didn't take long for him to translate the words on the stele almost equally, although some of them were even guessed, but the meaning was generally not wrong.
"I didn't expect this to be Gongzihui's coffin, so much to our surprise, we thought it would take a long time to dig into the main burial chamber. Ou Cheng said with a sigh.
"It is indeed a bit unexpected to us, here are the most valuable wealth of history, the 'yellow intestine inscription', the terracotta warriors and horses are the country's top cultural relics, we must protect it, we must not lose it. Lao Qin said with emotion.
"Let's get out of this palace quickly, this place has been sealed for more than 2,000 years, and now it has been suddenly opened, many cultural relics have begun to oxidize, and it is imperative to send someone over to protect it as soon as possible." Lao Yang continued.
"Let's get out of this palace now, and everyone be careful not to touch anything around them. Ou Cheng nodded and said.
The group quickly and cautiously exited the palace, for fear that if the movement was a little bigger, the surrounding terracotta warriors and horses would also become like bones in the passage.
