Chapter 1212: The Workshop in the Tomb
The deeper the ability went deeper into the Yongdao, the more shocked Liu Yuhao's face increased, so that in the end, all the things written in Liu Yuhao's eyes were thick and complex.
I saw that the long tomb corridor of less than 100 meters was full of corpses with distorted faces, almost filling the entire tomb passage, with the help of the ability, Liu Yuhao roughly estimated that there were as many as a thousand corpses.
Who, exactly, created this tragedy?
Burial of the living was a very cruel system in slave societies.
Some of the martyrs were buried alive, and some were buried with them after being killed or committing suicide. Its system first began in the Yin Shang period, but when the sixth emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Ming Yingzong, died, in order to protect his woman, he issued an edict before his death: "I can't bear to do it with people for burial, and this matter should be abolished from me." ”
At this point, the funeral system was finally abolished.
Liu Yuhao was shocked not by the system of exterminating the world with the burial of living people, but by the cruelty of thousands of people buried alive in the narrow corridor in front of him.
"Slaughtering the lives of the people, the sum of the creation and creation, however, the Son of Heaven killed and martyred, the many hundreds, and the widows dozens; The generals and doctors were killed, many dozens, and few widows. ”
This is a system set down by the ancestors, and few people dare to violate it easily.
Usually in the tombs of slave owners excavated by archaeology, there are generally a few or dozens of people who are martyred, and in some large tombs, there are two or three hundred people who are martyred. Some of the skeletons have swords next to them, and they are samurai slaves; Some of the skeletons were surrounded by chariots and horses, which were driving slaves; Some of the skeletons have dog bones remaining, and they are dog slaves; Some of the skeletons do not have skulls next to them, and the skulls are on the other side, which are slaves who were killed and buried; Some of the skeletons were still tied behind their backs, and there were obvious signs of struggle, and they were slaves who were buried alive.
Moreover, in the course of Liu Yuhao's five-year professional archaeological study, he has never found any material that records the number of martyrs as many as 1,000 people.
Could it be that there is a tyrannical king buried under the tomb in this tomb?
Strange thoughts instantly appeared in Liu Yuhao's mind.
But immediately, this idea was denied by Liu Yuhao again, no, it must not be.
Since the Song Dynasty until the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there have been less than 30 emperors in total, and except for a few emperors who died unexpectedly, where the rest were buried, and how the mausoleum regulations were recorded in the history books, and they have all been specifically confirmed.
As a proud disciple of Old Man Qi, it is impossible for Liu Yuhao to forget even these simple archaeological basics.
So who else in history could have concocted a funerary tomb on such a huge scale?
Liu Yuhao's breathing became short, and his face gradually began to redden.
For the exploration of the unknown, everyone is full of curiosity in their hearts, even Liu Yuhao is not exempt from vulgarity.
"Brother, have you made any new discoveries?"
After a long time, Liu Yuhao didn't move, Shi Bao called out on the walkie-talkie again, on the one hand, he wanted to satisfy his curiosity for the first time, and in addition, Liu Yuhao's safety was also the focus of Shi Bao's consideration.
It is not a good thing for a large living person to stay in a tomb in the dark for a long time.
"There's a burial pit underground."
Hearing the voice on the walkie-talkie, Liu Yuhao immediately replied without thinking.
But immediately, Liu Yuhao regretted it.
The door of the burial chamber buried underground is at least two or three meters away from Liu Yuhao's current location, if Shi Bao asks how he found out this secret, how can he answer?
"I'll go, confused!"
Liu Yuhao patted his head regretfully, and Shi Bao's voice came from the walkie-talkie again: "Brother, I can't hear what you are saying, if it doesn't work, come up quickly." ”
Zla
There was a cacophony over the intercom.
Liu Yuhao secretly laughed, fortunately, there was a problem with the walkie-talkie, and Shi Bao couldn't hear what he just said clearly, otherwise, he really didn't know how to explain to Shi Bao when he went up.
Suddenly, Liu Yuhao's eyes narrowed tightly, and his narrow eyes flashed with a strange essence.
At the end of the road, Liu Yuhao found a black and withered man's face, although the muscles on the dry corpse's face had completely atrophied, Liu Yuhao could still see a trace of terrifying murderous aura in the man's two empty eyes.
The man seemed to be a military man.
This is Liu Yuhao's first reaction in his head after carefully observing the man's clothes.
The strangest thing is that the man's body is half leaning against the tomb wall, although his expression is also hideous and distorted, but the corners of his mouth are slightly upturned, as if he is happy to have done a big thing, especially the man's posture before he dies, which is obviously completely different from the dry corpses in front of him who are scrambling to escape from the tomb.
Driven by curiosity, Liu Yuhao used his ability to envelop the man, observed carefully, and refused to let go of every detail of the man's body.
"Dashun Imperial Camp?"
Liu Yuhao exclaimed, and a different color shot out of his eyes again.
On the body of the military man, he unexpectedly found an ivory carved brand, the front of the sign actually has the four words of Dashun Imperial Camp, and the back is engraved with another line of small characters indicating the true identity of the military man, "Chinese saber axe captain Jiang".
"Could it be that the person buried here is Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang?"
In an instant, Liu Yuhao felt that his head was not enough, and the whole person opened his mouth in a daze, unable to believe the conclusion he had reached in his head.
In the past 400 years, the controversy about the mystery of the life and death of King Li Zicheng has not stopped, and different versions have come out more and more, the most famous ones are "Jiugongshan Theory" and "Jiashan Temple Theory".
Liu Yuhao quickly shook his head, putting aside the ridiculous thought in his mind.
No matter where Li Zicheng died in the end, it is impossible for his bones to be buried thousands of miles away from Jiugong Mountain or Jiashan Temple.
But after this unexpected discovery, Liu Yuhao's interest in the mysterious tomb under his feet became even stronger, and through re-observation, he found that the dried corpses in the Yongdao were roughly divided into two types, one was the peasant army wearing white felt hats and blue ethereal arrow clothes, and the other was the ragged authentic peasants.
What is the true identity of those ragged peasants Liu Yuhao is not sure, but Liu Yuhao, who is familiar with history, must "recognize" that the blue ethereal arrow suit is the military uniform of Li Zicheng's army.
Since ancient times, yellow has always been the emperor's exclusive color, whether it is the common people or the princes and generals, and even including the imperial brother, if anyone dares to wear yellow clothes, it will be regarded as a great rebellion against the "crime of bullying the king", which is the clear evidence of the attempt to "seek the dynasty and usurp the throne".
But Li Zicheng's Dashun army has never regarded yellow as a noble, and there is a little-known story in it.
Legend has it that because of the divination and fortune-telling of Song Xiance, Emperor Chongzhen belonged to the fire life, and King Li Chuang belonged to the water life; Water can overcome fire, so Li Zicheng will definitely be able to defeat Zhu Youzhen and eventually replace him.
Yellow represents fire, blue represents water, Li Zicheng not only called himself "King of Water", he wore a light blue arrow suit, called "ethereal clothes", all subordinates, except for civilian personnel, from generals to soldiers, also wore light blue "ethereal clothes".
After being called emperor, he did not follow the tradition of wearing yellow robes, but only added a yellow umbrella when he went out to show the identity of the "emperor", so there was a Dashun army with blue ethereal cloth and arrow clothes as military uniforms.
In fact, there are many similar legends, the most typical of which is the Five Elements of the Imperial Lineage.
Turning over the history, the change of dynasties is dazzling, and there is a main vein to follow. Let's talk about the Tang Dynasty, known as the Tang Dynasty in the east, and the five elements belong to the earth.
The Song Dynasty belonged to Mu and Mu Ketu, so later the Song Dynasty replaced the Tang Dynasty, and then a minority in the north established the Jin State, and the Jin State was established for more than ten years to eliminate the Northern Song Dynasty, how strong was the power of Jin Kemu?
A Yangtze River nourishes the Southern Song Dynasty with aquatic trees. Drain gold with water and drain the gold country. The Yuan Dynasty also belonged to gold, and its official uniforms and military uniforms were all white, which was the true color of gold, and the Yuan character was also gold. Therefore, in the end, the Yuan Dynasty unified the country. To replace the Jin Yuan Dynasty, it can only be a fire dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty came into being.
And the sun and the moon are fire, and the military uniforms of the Ming Dynasty are mostly red, plus a surname Zhu, Zhu is red, and he is an emperor of fire. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng rebelled, the country name Dashun, and the official uniforms were all blue - there were high-level people to guide them, and the next dynasty belonged to water, and the water was blue. At this time, there was a minority in the north after the founding of the Jin, who repeatedly violated the Ming Dynasty and suffered defeat.
Because of Huo Kejin, in 1636 A.D., under the guidance of another master, the name of the country was changed to Qing. The one who is clear, the water is clear. The uniforms of the changed officials and military uniforms are all black, the surface of the water is blue, and the true color of the five elements of the water is black.
Eight years later, the Qing army entered Shanhaiguan, and how many people later opposed the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty was just a spark in the vast ocean. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom rebelled in red clothes and red scarves and occupied half of the south, but unfortunately the south was fire, so the final uprising failed because the fire did not overcome the water. Its Northern Expeditionary Army was flooded, and Shi Dakai was also defeated on the banks of the Dadu River.
Old man Qi also made such a joke with Liu Yuhao back then, the old man said: "The name of a country is so important; So how important is the name of a place and the name of a person! ”
In order to understand the confusion in Xingxing, Liu Yuhao sped up and advanced the ability by another hundred meters, and as a result, at the end of the road, another discovery made Liu Yuhao even more stunned.
"I'll go for it!"
originally thought that what he had found was a suspicious grave, but after seeing the "rich content" at the end of the road, Liu Yuhao couldn't help but curse secretly.
Fifty meters to the right at the end of the road 100 meters away, there are no exquisite murals in Liu Yuhao's imagination, let alone coveted bronze and jade, and there is no coffin that can decipher the true identity of the "tomb owner".
What appeared in front of Liu Yuhao's eyes was actually a "workshop" so big that he smacked his tongue.
Yes, that's a big workshop.
