Chapter 619: Treasure - Seventy-two Doubtful Graves

On the other side after Zhou Rui disappeared, Cao Cao, Cao Hong and others walked more than ten miles.

"Cao Hong, let me down", Cao Cao said to Cao Hong.

"Lord, now is not the time", Cao Hong heard Cao Cao's words and hurriedly persuaded him.

Now there are still pursuers, how can they stay casually.

"Let me down", Cao Cao said again, this time in an even stern voice.

"Yes", Cao Hong had no choice but to put Cao Cao down.

"Boyun, I hope you can come back", Cao Cao turned around and looked in the direction where he and the others had fled.

His eyes were full of hope.

In order to save him, Zhou Rui put himself in danger.

In this case, how could he not wait.

Seeing this, Cao Hong sighed silently, and then asked the soldiers to hurry up and rest.

After waiting for almost half a stick of incense.

Zhou Rui still did not appear.

"Lord, you can't wait any longer, if you keep waiting, something is really going to go wrong", Cao Hong came to Cao Cao's side and said bitterly.

"Hey", Cao Cao sighed silently.

"Boyun, I hope we can meet again in the next life", Cao Cao said silently in his heart.

In his opinion, it has not yet returned.

Definitely dead.

You must know that Zhou Rui is facing Lu Bu and thousands of troops.

Under such encirclement, there is absolutely no possibility of survival.

······

At dawn, Cao Cao and the others walked more than 30 miles, just when they were resting under the mound.

Suddenly, a pair of people and horses came, but it was Xu Rong who crossed the river from the upper reaches to chase after him.

"Not good", Cao Hong and the others' faces changed greatly.

Cao Cao even stood up directly from the ground.

In a hurry, Cao Cao saw Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan leading dozens of people to rush over.

"Xu Rong, don't hurt my lord!" Xiahoudun roared angrily, and his voice shook the sky.

Xu Rong heard Xiahoudun's voice, gave up Cao Cao, and came directly towards Xiahoudun.

Xiahoudun was much more dangerous than Cao Cao.

Xiahoudun came to greet him with a gun, and the two of them fought together.

After handing over the horses, Xiahoudun stabbed Xu Rong under the horse, and the rest of the soldiers fled.

Later, Cao Ren, Li Dian, and Le Jin each led troops to find it, and when they saw Cao Cao, they were mixed with joy and sorrow.

Cao Cao gathered more than 500 remnants of his army and returned to Hanoi.

On the other side, the princes divided into Luoyang.

Sun Jian went to extinguish the fire in the palace, and then stationed troops in the city and set up a tent on the foundation of the Jianzhang Palace.

Sun Jian ordered the sergeants to sweep away the rubble of the palace.

All the mausoleums excavated by Dong Zhuo were all closed.

It is even more on the foundation of the Taimiao, please ask all the princes to set up the holy shrine, and then worship it.

When Sun Jian returned to the village, he saw the stars and the moon shining, sitting upright with his sword, and looking up at astronomy.

I saw that the white air in the purple wall was long.

"The emperor star is unknown, the thieves are in chaos, the people are in misery, and the capital is empty!" Sun Jian sighed and burst into tears.

Later, Sun Jian obtained the jade seal, which also completely stimulated Sun Jian's ambition.

······

After Zhou Rui came back, he felt very regretful.

Lu Bu was not left behind.

It's a shame.

Then, Zhou Rui took off the human skin mask on his face, and then restored his original appearance.

Zhou Rui let his horse move freely.

Then put his Fang Tian Painting Halberd on the weapon rack.

Then Zhou Rui began to clean up and harvest.

The red envelope did not immediately reward Zhou Rui.

Because, Cao Cao has not escaped to ascend to heaven.

After the red envelope software detected Cao Cao's safe return, the reward was issued.

And this is already the next day.

Zhou Rui looked at the reward in his hand and couldn't help but be surprised.

Because, the reward in his hand is not simple at all.

In Zhou Rui's hands is a map.

But it's not your average map.

It is recorded - Cao Cao's tomb.

There are many mysteries in Cao Cao's tomb, and it is said that there are "seventy-two doubtful graves".

No one knows where Cao Cao's real grave is.

Legend has it that Cao Cao was afraid that his grave would be excavated after his death, so he built seventy-two doubtful graves in the Yecheng area.

There are many legends about Cao Cao's mausoleum in history.

In particular, the truth of the "Seventy-two Doubtful Graves" has whetted people's appetite. Many archaeologists have speculated that Cao Cao's suspected tomb was actually a large group of ancient tombs of the Northern Dynasty, and pointed out that the exact number is not seventy-two, but one hundred and thirty-four. In the eyes of the ancients, seventy-two is just an approximate number, not a real reference, so the "seventy-two doubtful graves" only cite a large number, indicating that Cao Cao has many doubtful graves, but Cao Cao's tomb is indeed not in this "seventy-two doubtful graves".

Speaking of the origin of the "Seventy-two Doubtful Graves", Jian'an twenty-three years, may have a premonition that his life was coming to an end, Cao Cao specially issued a "Final Order" to arrange the things after his death, because he had special feelings for Yecheng, so Cao Cao decided to choose his tomb for the Yecheng generation.

But archaeological evidence shows that it is actually a group of tombs of the Northern Dynasties.

Zhou Rui looked at the location of Cao Cao's tomb on the map.

What is certain is that Cao Cao's tomb has not been excavated so far.

Moreover, Cao Cao's tomb was built quite hidden.

The tombs that have been discovered and identified are one of the seventy-two doubtful graves.

(Pure fiction)

Because this tomb is actually in "Qingzhou".

"Is it because of the Qingzhou soldiers?" Zhou Rui secretly pondered in his heart, he couldn't understand why Cao Cao built the tomb in Qingzhou.

After thinking about it for a long time, Zhou Rui thought of Qingzhou Bing.

The Qingzhou soldiers can be said to be the main force under Cao Cao.

made great contributions to Cao Cao.

The main force of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army surrendered unconditionally to Cao. After surrendering, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, including their families, totaled more than one million people, including tens of thousands of people who were in good health, were organized by Cao Cao into relatively independent "Qingzhou soldiers".

As for the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, which was not accepted as soldiers, they concentrated on agricultural production and used it as rear supplies.

Under Cao Cao's management, the Qingzhou soldiers were no longer the same as the previous outcasts, and soon after they were engaged in battle.

They went from being unorganized and undisciplined idle personnel to well-trained and capable troops who had made great contributions to Cao Cao's cause, and their sons inherited their father's business and existed for a long time, and the name of Qingzhou soldiers existed for a total of 28 years, and after Cao Cao's death, they thought that they had lost their allegiance to their leader, and there was no such wise person to lead them, and they each asked to disperse.

"Maybe, this is a reason", Zhou Rui couldn't understand, so he could only reluctantly think so.

(Purely fictitious!!)

There is also a story about "Cao Cao's Tomb" in "Strange Tales from Liao Zhai".

There is a river outside Yecheng, the water is very fast, and the place near the bank is especially deep and dark.

In the middle of summer, when someone went to bathe in the river to cool off, suddenly there was the sound of swords and axes from the water, and the person who went into the water was broken into two and floated to the surface.

This phenomenon spreads among the people, causing them to be frightened and strange. When the magistrates heard about this, they sent a number of men to the upper reaches to cut off the river and dry it up. So it was discovered that there was a deep cave under the cliff, and in the cave was placed a wheel, on which were mounted a sharp blade like frost.

People dismantled the wheel and entered the cave, and found a small stone tablet in the cave, on which the font was the seal script of the Han Dynasty.

Reading these articles carefully, I learned that this was Cao Cao's tomb.

So the people opened Cao Cao's coffin, scattered Cao Cao's bones, and took away all the gold, silver and jewelry that he was buried with.
