Chapter 1170: Legends
readx;
Listening to Zhuang Rui's explanation, Battle's face couldn't help but change, and when he heard the miserable end of the Qing Dynasty emperor's tomb, his face was even more ugly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Although the Mongolian people's understanding of death, the immortality of the soul is more important than the extinction of the first, but as a descendant of Genghis Khan, Batel of course does not want his ancestors to be like Emperor Qianlong, and finally end up with incomplete bones.
"Okay, Brother Zhuang, I believe in you, so I'll go with Peng Fei to find the army stationed nearby......
After thinking about it again and again, Battle finally agreed to Ren Chunqiang's plan, although excavating the royal tomb would disturb the peace of the ancestors, but it was better than being humiliated by tomb robbers, right?
And Battle also knew in his heart that if what Zhuang Rui found was really the tomb of the Mongolian royal family, then they, the mausoleum keepers, might not be able to stop the tomb development work.
Because although the state will have some policy tilts towards ethnic minorities, it is absolutely impossible to give up the excavation of the tombs of Mongolian emperors in order to take care of their emotions for such a major event as the advent of the Mongolian emperors' tombs.
You must know that Qin Shi Huang was the first emperor to unify the six countries and establish a feudal dynasty, so didn't all the burial pits around the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang be dug up? If it weren't for technical reasons, even the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang would have been seen in the world.
"Brother Battle, it's best if you can understand, I think the people of the steppe also want to see Genghis Khan's demeanor thousands of years ago......"
Hearing that Battle agreed with them to discover the secrets underground, Zhuang Rui was also relieved.
In order to excavate the tomb of Genghis Khan, which has been buried underground for thousands of years, two factors are necessary, the first is the act of the state, which must be presided over by the state, and the second is the support of the Mongols, which is also very important.
You know, if these natives who have lived on the grassland for generations really oppose it vigorously and stumble in the shadows, it will bring many unexpected difficulties to the excavation work.
"Brother Zhuang, I won't go, Lao Ba can go alone......"
Peng Fei was a little unhappy with Ren Chunqiang's arrangement, he was Zhuang Rui's personal bodyguard, what if something happened after he left?
Hearing this, Dr. Ren was stunned for a moment, yes, what qualifications did he have to assign Peng Fei?
"Peng Fei, you have to go, after you get to the garrison, contact my eldest brother immediately, this matter is very important......"
Zhuang Rui understood what Ren Chunqiang meant, and what he meant by letting Peng Fei go, as long as he took into account his identity, or the certificate he carried, he would be taken seriously by the relevant departments.
"Okay, but Brother Zhuang, be careful, that waterway is not good, grandma's, it's all aquatic plants......" Peng Fei saw Zhuang Rui speak, and nodded unhappily at the moment, which was considered to be agreed.
After explaining to Peng Fei, Zhuang Rui turned his head, looked at Ren Chunqiang and said, "Brother Ren, notify the garrison first that I agree, but I'm afraid that you won't be able to enter the secret passage, I want to ...... Let's inform Professor Meng first, and then ask them to bring the equipment used for diving and surveying......"
With Peng Fei's physique, he almost couldn't hold on to the danger in the waterway, if Ren Chunqiang dived, it is estimated that he would be like Zhu Jiuling, who was caught in the gap in the mountain in Jin Yong's martial arts novel "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", stuck in the waterway at the bottom of the lake.
Ren Chunqiang shook his head and said very firmly: "No, I have to go first to see before deciding whether to report, Xiaozhuang, although you are the captain of this archaeological operation, but after leaving Dunhuang, this archaeological operation has actually ended, you have to listen to my ......"
Based on the gold cake that Zhuang Rui took out, Dr. Ren could not conclude that this was a Mongolian royal tomb, because it was also possible that this underground was a refuge built by the royal family of the Yuan Dynasty for future generations to take refuge.
This is very common in all dynasties, a few years ago, there were people in a hundred thousand mountains in Hubei, found many dilapidated buildings of the Ming Dynasty, and in the underground and some buildings, found a large number of grain and weapons.
In the end, after identification, the relevant departments came to an astonishing conclusion that this was built by Zhu Yuanzhang in order to be used for refuge for future generations.
Genghis Khan conquered the world, and the enemies were naturally all over the world, and there was no eternal dynasty in this world, so maybe the bottom was the back road he left.
More importantly, the day after tomorrow in Beijing, there will be a worldwide Dunhuang cultural exchange meeting, in a sense, it can be regarded as a commendation conference, which will be of great help to Ren Chunqiang's future development.
If you rashly listened to Zhuang Rui's words and didn't go to the Dunhuang Academic Exchange Conference, and the discovery here was that the bamboo basket was empty, then Ren Chunqiang didn't get any benefits on both sides, so Dr. Ren decided to go down to investigate in person.
"Damn, look at the, I'll take you to see Genghis Khan's corpse......"
After Zhuang Rui heard Dr. Ren's words, he was a little depressed, but he couldn't refute it, thought for a while and said, "Okay, but Brother Ren, if you can't hold it underwater, you must return to the water......
Passing through the waterway from the lake, according to Zhuang Rui's estimate, it will take at least nearly two minutes, and in this time, it will take a distance of thirty or forty meters, he is not optimistic about Ren Chunqiang, which is stronger than bean sprouts, but it is far from being able to hold up a strong body.
"Okay, I know, as long as there is no water ghost down there to hold me, I can't find my own death?"
Ren Chunqiang waved his hand indifferently, but when he talked about the water ghost, he couldn't help but shudder in his heart, if this underground is really Genghis Khan's mausoleum, then maybe how many people died when pruning, maybe there are a lot of unjust souls in this lake.
Of course, Dr. Ren's work ethic, or his expectations for the Mongolian Emperor's Mausoleum, are still commendable, although there are some drums in his heart, he still follows Zhuang Rui down to the lake.
Zhuang Rui first took Ren Chunqiang to dive a few meters, pointed out the entrance of the waterway to him, and then the two resurfaced, took a deep breath, and dived down together.
Not to mention, Zhuang Rui really underestimated Ren Chunqiang before, this guy has a good water nature, he didn't fall behind Zhuang Rui, and entered the waterway with suction one after the other.
In fact, Peng Fei was more struggling before, because he had to eliminate and cut off those aquatic plants, which cost Peng Fei a lot of energy and physical strength, and now Ren Chunqiang only needs to swim along, as long as the water is good, he can swim to the other side of the waterway.
Zhuang Rui, who was swimming in front, tried his best to hold some aquatic plants with his arms, and then used brute force to pull them off, and Ren Chunqiang, who was following behind, suddenly saved a lot of effort, and more than two minutes later, the two of them emerged in the waterhole at the dark river at the same time.
"Brother Ren, are you okay?"
Zhuang Rui stretched out his hand to remove the aquatic plants on his head and face, and crawled out of the waterhole, only hearing Ren Chunqiang's rough panting in his ears.
"I didn't ...... It's okay, Zhuang ...... Zhuang Rui, turn on the flashlight ......"
Suddenly entering an isolated place, the psychological pressure brought by the darkness is even much greater than the physical exhaustion, although some plants in the river seem to be able to emit a faint light, but for Ren Chunqiang, this is just a finger that cannot be seen.
A beam of light flashed from Zhuang Rui's hand, this is not a waterproof flashlight, it is the most ordinary flashlight, but it was wrapped in a plastic bag by Zhuang Rui and brought in.
"Brother Ren, this is the box of gold cakes, you see...... Are there any traces of artificial excavation on the rock walls on these two sides?"
Zhuang Rui waited for Ren Chunqiang to take a break, pointed the flashlight at the pair of gold cakes on the ground, and waited for Dr. Ren to go up and look at it for a while, and then shone on the rock walls on both sides, especially around the re-waterhole, the traces of artificial excavation are very obvious.
"That's right, it was dug artificially, this dark river should have been formed in the middle of karst development, and it is not suitable for human survival and food storage, it seems that this is not a refuge built by the Mongols......"
After looking at it, Dr. Ren's expression became a little excited, and he muttered to himself: "There was once a legend that Genghis Khan's Mausoleum was in the water, is it ...... Is the legend true?"
"And this kind of legend?"
Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, he checked the secret history of Mongolia that was sung and passed down, and he didn't see such a statement?
Ren Chunqiang nodded and said, "This is the kind of statement I saw in a novel, which said that when the tomb of Genghis Khan was built, the people used except for slaves were all the soldiers who were most loyal to Genghis Khan, and these soldiers knew that after they finished building the mausoleum, they would definitely be buried."
Both slaves and soldiers were blindfolded when they went to Genghis Khan's mausoleum, but once there was a thought who deserted and secretly ran away when he returned to the ground to transport stones, and according to him, he heard the sound of water flowing underground.
In the end, the soldiers killed all the craftsmen and slaves after the mausoleum was built, and when they changed their guards, they were killed by other soldiers, and after three times, Genghis Khan's mausoleum became an eternal secret......"
"Ren...... Brother Ren, are you sure this is a novel, not a historical material?"
Zhuang Rui was stupid by Ren Chunqiang's words, because this novel and the tomb of Genghis Khan in the depths of the river are too imaginary, and what he said is extremely accurate.
Entering the cave from the underground of the Alzhai Grottoes, there are many rivers, and the sound of flowing water can naturally be heard, and the funeral pit on the outermost part of Genghis Khan's Mausoleum also proves that the craftsmen were killed, which Zhuang Rui has proved with aura.
"Ahem, it's really a novel, the guy named Ni Kuang in Hong Kong wrote it, I forgot the name, you can look for it......"
Ren Chunqiang's face was slightly red, and he coughed twice to hide his embarrassment, comparing novels with rigorous archaeological science, which was a little too unserious.
