Chapter Twenty-Six: The Living Treasure
Stele?
I was immediately interested, and then I got closer, and at first glance, I saw that under a pile of bronzes, there was a cyan stone tablet buried.
I immediately saw that the stele should be engraved with words, but this stele has been buried underground for more than 2,000 years, and the surface has long been covered with a thick layer of dust.
In this way, I also have a rough guess about the origin of this stone tablet, if not surprised, this should be the epitaph of the tomb owner.
To put it bluntly, the epitaph is a way to record the life deeds of the tomb owner, generally speaking, the epitaph will be buried in the tomb, so as long as the epitaph is found, the identity of the tomb owner can be quickly figured out.
However, the words on the stele stumped the fat man, and no one knew this kind of writing because of the inscription on the stele, all of which were common in the Qin Dynasty.
Fat man: "Hey, do we know this kind of character among us?"
"I'll try!"
I said directly, "But it's such a large text, and it will take me time to completely crack it." ”
Tang Jing came up and patted me on the shoulder and said, "Okay?"
I smiled bitterly and said to Tang Jing that it was okay, and immediately squatted down and wiped the dust of the stele with my sleeve while reading the words on it.
In fact, the seal character is the general name of the big seal and the small seal, the big seal generally refers to the oracle bone inscription Jin Wen Zhou Wen six national characters, they preserve the obvious characteristics of the ancient hieroglyphs, and the small seal is also called the Qin seal is the general script of the Qin State, which is characterized by the uniform shape and neatness, the font is easier to write than the Zhou text, in the history of the development of Chinese characters is the transition product between the big seal and the subordinate Kai.
The Chinese characters of our country have undergone more than 6,000 years of changes, and the process has oracle bone inscriptions, Jin Wen, Xiao Seal, Lishu, Kaishu, Book Merchants, Zhou, Qin, Han, Wei, Jin and cursive, the above "Jia, Jin, Li, Caokai, Xing" seven fonts are called Chinese characters seven bodies, and the production of Chinese characters is well documented.
Later, after the Qin Dynasty Prime Minister Li Si, the large seal was changed to a small seal, and the linearization and standardization reached a perfect degree, almost completely separated from the picture and text, and became a neat and harmonious, very beautiful basically rectangular square font.
Although I can't fully understand this kind of text, but my family has been doing this for generations, and the family naturally collects a lot of ancient books, including some ancient books, and my grandfather also taught me some when I am fine, so I dare not say that I know all these words in front of me!
In this way, I watched for two or three hours before finally all the words on the stele were translated, but when I understood the identity of the owner of the tomb, even I was taken aback.
I grass his grandmother, and what is buried in this tomb is actually a historical figure who is famous in the entire history of China.
Who is it?
White up!
That's right, it's the God of Killing...... Bai Qi, we are no strangers to "Bai Qi", especially those who know a little bit about the history of the Qin Dynasty.
Bai Qi once commanded many important battles, breaking the Chu army to attack Yingdu and forcing the Chu state to move the capital, since then the Chu state has been in a slump, and the battle of Yique annihilated the 240,000 allied forces of Han and Wei, completely sweeping the road of the Qin army's eastward advance.
In the Changping War, he annihilated 450,000 Zhao troops in one fell swoop, creating the earliest and largest precedent in Chinese history to encircle and annihilate the enemy.
A total of 450,000 people were killed in the Battle of Changping, together with the 240,000 beheadings of the previous attack on Han and Wei Yuyique, the drowning of hundreds of thousands in the Yandushui irrigation city of Chu, the beheading of 130,000 in Huayang during the attack on Wei, the 20,000 deaths in the battle with the Zhao general Jia Yan, and the beheading of 50,000 in the Chengcheng of Han and the capture of more than 1 million.
Later, according to Liang Qichao's research, a total of 2 million people died in the entire Warring States period, and Bai Qi alone was based on one-half, and the existence of Qin General Bai Qi made the other six countries frightened and had no power to fight back, which greatly weakened the combat power of the six countries and laid a solid foundation for Qin Shi Huang to unify the six countries in the future.
It is undeniable that Bai Qi's combat command ability greatly represents the highest level of war in the Warring States Period, and later because of the disagreement with King Qin Zhao on the issue of sending troops to Zhao State, he was reluctant to lead the troops to attack Zhao State, so King Qin Zhao suspected that Bai Qi deliberately delayed and had a heart of disobedience.
The fat man naturally knew this too, and at the moment they all had a bitter face, and Peng Hui's expression was even worse: "Xiao Xuan is not mistaken!
"You can't be wrong, that's what the stele says. ”
I asked, "What's wrong?"
Peng Hui let out a long sigh and then said: "Of course there is a problem, if it is really a bad star, I don't think our next road will be too easy, first of all, this killing is too deep and there are many debts, and he can't enter reincarnation, this is certain, and in the end, he died unjustly, so it will definitely not stop after death, and eighty percent of them have become zongzi." ”
The fat man also said: "Hey, that's right, but there is one thing we can rest assured, don't forget that there is an old man of the Lu family and my grandfather in front of him, if there is really any powerful guy, there is a chance that he will be able to deal with it, plus our gang, I estimate that there should be a fight." ”
"I hope so!"
Peng Hui only said one word, and then stopped talking, anyway, no matter what! The result of our final discussion is still to enter the main tomb, there is no way to go behind the road, not to mention the Yin soldiers in the front room, the mandrill group in the cave alone is enough to kill, so we have no way to retreat but to go forward.
After a while, we continued to set off again, this time our goal is very clear, that is, the core location of this ancient tomb is the main burial chamber, to be honest, after figuring out that the owner of the tomb is Bai Qi, I am more or less excited in my heart, this man who enjoys a very prestigious reputation in the entire history of China is what it is, even if it is a corpse that has been dead for more than 2,000 years, I also want to see it, I can't be born in this kind of family, and I have been influenced by the ears and eyes, and naturally I have a strong interest in these things.
The distribution room is a long and narrow road leading to the main burial chamber, I don't know how long this road is, anyway, we have been walking along the road for several kilometers without seeing the end, and finally I am really tired and simply stop for a night of rest.
After the only food leftover was eaten, we took turns to be on guard, and the rest of the people went to sleep directly, in fact, there is no difference between day and night in this kind of environment at the moment, and the place where we are is at least hundreds of meters deep underground, this kind of place is dark regardless of yin and yang.
I looked at the time on my phone just now, and it was the third day that we came out of Yang Guozhong's tomb, so we had been trapped underground for five days.
I shook my head vigorously and stopped thinking about it, I just closed my eyes and slept for about three or four hours!
At that moment, I got up directly from the sleeping bag and went to the vigil, a few hours later everyone woke up one after another, cleaned up and continued to go straight to the main tomb, our team walked more than ten kilometers, and finally even Yun Zhongzi began to scold the mother, a vigorous bureaucracy, why is a road so long, I don't know how many craftsmen were tired to build it at the beginning.
I was not surprised and silently followed the group, and gradually I slowly noticed that the ground under our feet had a layer of white mist at some point, and this fog came strangely without warning, as if it had come out all at once.
Not only did I find the problem, and they stopped to check the situation, but at this moment, without warning, I heard a strange hissing sound suddenly from under my feet, I was curious and squatted down directly to check, this look didn't matter and I was stunned for a moment, and saw that the military boots on my feet actually melted, and the height of the melt was exactly where the fog on the ground could reach.
Fortunately, we were wearing military-quality military boots, which was terrible enough, so I hurriedly reminded: "Everyone get out of here! This white mist has a corrosive effect, and you can't even leave a complete corpse if you run slowly." ”
Our team doesn't get along with each other through a few days of running-in, and after a long time of cooperation, you don't need to explain too much, you can understand what the other party means, and you don't hesitate to speed up the run, and I don't know how this fog is formed, anyway, it's terrible!
Even if the military boots we wore were thick enough, they were still corroded by the mist, and the surface was almost corroded, and the soles of the shoes were directly half wiped off, so we ran madly towards the main tomb.
The fat man said as he ran: "What the hell is this! There are dozens of buckets that Lao Tzu has poured down, so why haven't I seen this thing?" ”
At this time, we all took care of running for our lives, how could we have time to take care of the fat man! Yun Zhongzi even kicked the fat man's ass directly, so that he couldn't give the girl a kick down, and the fat man shut up and didn't break it.
When we ran in a nervous mood for dozens of meters, Penghui in front of me suddenly stopped and reminded us: "There is a situation!"
His warning, we immediately became vigilant, ready for battle, and then quietly moved forward for more than ten meters, and then vaguely heard the sound of two old men scolding in the darkness not far ahead.
"You old king and eight calves, I have the fuck to blame you before entering the mountain, I reminded you again and again, the most important thing is that the equipment is good now, and we two old guys can only wait here for death. ”
"Oh hey, okay, don't fuck it, didn't I expect to encounter acid mist?"
"Anyway, I don't care, I'll take off your old calf's underwear and put it on your feet after a while. ”
"Wei Fatty, you are a deflated three, don't ignore people, Lao Tzu will stuff your pants in your mouth in a while, believe it or not?"
Immediately after that, the two of them scolded each other in a storm, and I was speechless, and these two old guys scolded the street more than the young people.
But I still can't help but get a little excited, because this voice is too familiar to me, and the one who scolds the most is my grandfather.
I was just about to speak, when Yun Zhongzi took the lead and said, "These two old immortals haven't hung up yet! ”
The corridor suddenly fell silent, and after two long hours, my grandfather's voice sounded again: "Is that you, the old madman?"
Yun Zhongzi scolded: "Of course the nonsense is me, who else but me?"
"Grandpa, is that you?"
I also opened my mouth to scream, and then ran over and waited for sure that it was my grandfather, and my nerves that had been tense for many days finally relaxed: "Great, so you are not dead?"
"Xiao Xuan?"
Grandpa was stunned and frowned when he saw me, and slapped me on the back of the head and scolded directly: "You little rabbit, didn't I say I wouldn't let you find me, who let you come?"
To be honest, when I first saw my grandfather, I was so excited that I almost cried, but my grandfather's hand was too dark and he didn't pay attention at all, and directly slapped me with a liexi so that I fell down directly.
At this time, the fat man also came over, and he was scolded unexpectedly, but what made me a little funny was that the old man Wei was actually a fat man, his belly was not much smaller than Wei Xiong, plus a round fat face, the whole fat man looked like when he got old, I was not only thinking about whether this fat man was also inherited?
Later, I learned that the reason why they stayed in place was that their shoes were completely corroded, and now they can only stand on top of the backpack so that their feet do not touch the white mist, and the rest is simple, while we can still hold on for a while, we will simply run on their backs.
Later, after listening to my grandfather, we learned that in fact, their journey was relatively smooth, after all, they were two old oilmen with decades of experience in inverted fighting, and the hidden weapons couldn't stop them at all, and they didn't fight with the bronze armored corpse formed by Yang Guozhong, but they just ran away after dealing with two hits and finding the secret passage.
After escaping the siege of the mandrills, they entered the ancient tomb, in fact, they knew early on that what was buried in this tomb was Bai Qi, and we walked and said that when we completely walked out of this white mist, we had already come to the front of the two stone gates.
The two stone doors are made of two pieces of overall white jade, about three meters high and more than five meters wide, and the surface is extremely smooth like a mirror.
To put it bluntly, blame my grandfather, my grandfather is used to saving money and saving money in his usual life, and when he bought equipment, he bought two pairs of relatively cheap hiking shoes.
