Chapter 1 Cao Cemetery
Anyang, the ancient capital of the Seven Dynasties, is a historical city. This is where the oracle bone inscription came out, the birthplace of Zhou Yi. Since ancient times, there have been many emperors and heroes, buried here. Therefore, it is also a sacred place for tomb robbers and archaeologists in later generations.
Anyang, Xigaoxue Village, Anfeng Township. In Anyang, where there are many historical towns, Anfeng Township is an inconspicuous small township. It was not until the advent of the Cao Cemetery that it became widely known.
In the dark night, only a few sparse stars dotted the night sky of Xigaoxue Village; The mountains in the distance resemble sleeping beasts; The howling north wind was like its snort. From time to time, there were a few crows in the forest, which seemed to tell something.
"Brother Fei, during this time, we followed the Pan team to excavate the two tombs of No. 1 and No. 2, and the most expensive one is the jade stone worth tens of millions, and the rest are the seven statues that can't be moved. In the long and narrow tomb passage, Chu Fei and Fat Tiger carried a toolbox on their backs, with a miner's lamp on their heads but did not turn it on, only relying on the flashlight that emitted a glimmer in their hands, and cautiously walked towards the depths of the tomb. From a distance, it looks like two ghost fires are fluttering.
"You know a fart, do you remember who was the main coffin in the world and who picked up Cao Gong's body?" Listening to the fat tiger's complaints, Chu Fei turned around and looked at the fat tiger's head with a fried chestnut.
"Ouch, it hurts me. How can I not know this, I was also on the side to help that day, isn't it the main coffin under you and Team Pan. Afterwards, the senior antiques were still unconvinced, shouting that why you were in the coffin, not them. Fat Tiger rubbed his head and said with envy.
"What the ghost is called, it alarmed the others again. Hmph, these dead old men just drank too much milk powder in Sanlu, and their brains were funny. Just a few of them with old arms and legs. couldn't resist the evil spirit in the main coffin anymore, and confessed himself. After Chu Fei finished speaking, he made a gesture to reward the fat tiger with a fried chestnut to eat.
Seeing this, the fat tiger quickly jumped to the side, covering his head with one hand and his mouth with the other, and his face was full of grievances, "Don't scream, don't scream, isn't it okay?" ”
"Count your kid acquaintance, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and keep up" After Chu Fei finished speaking, he beckoned the fat tiger to continue walking.
"In fact, when I first picked up Cao Gong's body, I didn't tell everyone that I came here for this today. Hurry up, there is too much talk outside, and it will be troublesome to be discovered by the patrol, and I will talk to you in detail when I enter the tomb."
"Okay, let's go in and talk about it," Fat Tiger should arrive.
The two came to the tomb gate while talking, and saw that the tomb door was a brick double-coupon arched door. The outer door is nearly two meters wide and about three meters high, and there is a sky-swallowing unicorn beast on the door, and its bloody mouth is wide open, as if it wants to devour everything in front of the door. Push open the outer door, and the inside is the inner door. The inner door is slightly smaller, and there is a green dragon rising from the sky on the door. I saw that its dragon whiskers were fluttering, and the dragon's eyes were like electricity, but there was an extremely ordinary yellow bead in the dragon's mouth, and its material was ordinary Hetian jade sugar.
Through the tomb gate, there is the corridor. The road is paved with bluestone, only two or three meters long and less than one meter high; But each piece of bluestone is huge and shiny. The corridor leads directly to the burial chamber, and the burial chamber is divided into two burial chambers before and after, and each burial chamber has two side chambers, each connected by a corridor.
"Fatty, now that the tomb door is closed, there is no light in the outer door. Put the flashlight in your bag, and use the miner's lamp in the tomb, so it's easier to get things done. Chu Fei said as he turned on the miner's lamp and put the flashlight into his backpack.
"Gotcha, Phineas." Fat Tiger responded.
"Brother Fei, didn't you say that you told me what you were doing today when you entered the tomb, hurry up, don't hide it"
"Let's go, go directly to the main coffin of the back room, don't worry about the front room and the side room, talk as you go" Chu Fei said and quickly walked towards the back room.
"Again. Hey, slow down, wait for me, I'm afraid of the dark. Fat Tiger said helplessly.
"Fatty, when you first opened the main coffin, do you remember the situation inside the coffin?" Chu Fei said as he walked.
"Of course I do, and I won't forget it for the rest of my life."
"It's really unthinkable that the living Cao Cao is a thousand-year-old strange man, a versatile man in civil and military affairs, and he is simply omnipotent. After death, it is even more strange for thousands of years, and the corpse is immortal for thousands of years, which is really amazing. It's a pity that his body was secretly transported away by the State Security Bureau, otherwise I really want to study it well. Fat Tiger said regretfully.
"Yes, I didn't expect his body to be immortal for thousands of years. But you're a pity, even if you give you the corpse, what can you research? You're an archaeologist, when you become a scientist, you'll be able to study the human body. Chu Fei quipped.
"You can't say that, Phineas. Although we archaeologists don't dare to say that we know 500 years later, but the events of the first 2,000 years, I'm afraid that no one knows better than us, right? The emperor is feathered, and Lao Tzu may not be credible when he goes out, right? Now that the thousand-year-old immortal body of Cao Gong has been discovered, there are many things in the world that are difficult to explain even by science. Fat Tiger said.
"Just you, Gali's house, are squatting, and the top students in the house are also boasting about history to me. It's not your ancestors who touched the gold, and passed down something. It just so happens that my brother and I have a good eye for pigs, do you think you can put on the wolf skin of archaeology. But you have a good sentence, and many things are difficult for science to explain. Chu Fei responded.
"Hehe, how can I know two thousand years in advance. It's about our Yushu in the wind, the suave Feige. If I were a woman, I wouldn't have to marry you in this life. ”
"It's disgusting, my mother hugged the nausea and cried very sadly, and she died of disgust. You're full of fat, I'm afraid I'll be killed by you. ”
"Straight to the point. At that time, when Team Pan and I went to the coffin, everyone thought that there was some secret treasure in the burial goods that Cao Gong carried with him, which could keep his body immortal for thousands of years. In the end, there was only one sword in the coffin, probably the rumored Heavenly Sword. ”
"At that time, everyone thought that the Heavenly Sword had great power, so it kept Cao Gong's body immortal for thousands of years. However, not long after hearing that the Ministry of State Security had taken Cao Gong's body away with the sword, his body began to decompose, and the Yitian Sword also began to rust. Chu Fei continued.
"That's right, and later everyone thought that the bluestone sarcophagus connected with the bluestone on the ground had a big secret, until the Ministry of State Security once again brought precision instruments and professionals to identify and scan the sarcophagus and the sarcophagus underneath the sarcophagus, and it was understood that the sarcophagus was just a huge jade stone, and there was nothing surprising, that is, it could be sold for a lot of money."
"And there is nothing else under the sarcophagus, if it weren't for the sarcophagus and the bluestone on the ground as one, and just ordinary jadeite, dismantling the sarcophagus would destroy the entire Cao Cemetery, I'm afraid that the Ministry of State Security would have ruined this place a long time ago." Fat Tiger sighed.
"You kid knows a lot, but there is one thing you didn't say right," Chu Fei said.
"Something is wrong? Something is wrong, how many times has this been rechecked before and after, this is the only conclusion. Fat Tiger was unconvinced.
"If the re-examination is correct, then why am I pulling you here today? You must know that modern instruments are not omnipotent, just like the most awesome instruments are a pile of scrap metal in Bermuda. As they spoke, the two of them came to the main coffin in the back room, where Cao Cao had slept for more than a thousand years.
The back room is four meters long from east to west, four meters wide from north to south, and nearly eight meters high, with a circular roof. The tomb type is the heaven and earth tomb in the round place of the sky, in order to highlight the great achievements of Cao Gong.
There are seven statues in the room, which are distributed in the shape of the Big Dipper. They are the statue of the green dragon in the Tianshu position, the white tiger statue in the Tianxuan position, the Vermilion Bird statue in the Tianji position, the Xuangui statue in the Tianquan position, the Teng snake statue in the Yuheng position, the Gou Chen statue in the Kaiyang position, and the Kunpeng statue in the Yaoguang position; Each is lifelike, guarding the main coffin.
"Brother Fei, these seven statues are all lifelike and crystal clear, it would be perfect if they could be taken out" The fat tiger stroked the Teng snake statue next to him, his eyes shining.
"You kid, I really don't know how you got into the archaeological team. We are archaeologists, not tomb robbers, do you hear clearly, not tomb robbers. Before the words fell, Chu Fei looked at the fat tiger's head with two fried chestnuts.
"Oops, it hurts me to death, and I hit again. I didn't just talk about it, but I didn't really take it. Besides, it's all connected, and you can't take it away if you don't break it, and there's no point in breaking it and taking it away. But Phineas, what are we doing today? "It's not a tomb robber, why are you sneaking around, Fat Tiger can't help but feel a little disdainful in his heart.
"Look at your appearance, let me ask you, before the Cao Cemetery was unveiled, it was naturally the ancient cultural relics in the tomb that were of astonishing value. But after seeing the immortal body of Cao Gong for thousands of years, what do you think is the most valuable in it? Chu Fei looked at the fat tiger and said.
"Of course it is... Have you discovered the secret that made Cao Gong's body immortal for thousands of years? Fat Tiger was shocked.
"It seems that you are not very stupid, just a little bit." Chu Fei laughed.
"Brother Fei is still amazing, say it quickly, how did you find out, what are we going to do next" Fat Tiger hugged Chu Fei's arm and said happily.
"Damn, you dead pervert, let go of your stinky hands." Chu Fei said that he wanted to reward the fat tiger with a few fried chestnuts.
"Hehe, I'm so excited, I'm so excited." The fat tiger touched his head embarrassedly.
Chu Fei patted the place where the fat tiger was holding before, and said disdainfully, "When I went down to the coffin with Team Pan before, Team Pan was at the head of the coffin and I was at the end of the coffin." What everyone saw was that Team Pan found Cao Gong's portable sword at the head of the coffin, the Heavenly Sword, and I found nothing at the end of the coffin, but it was not. ”
"I felt a slight chill at the junction between the body and the bottom of the coffin, and if it weren't for the fact that I was born hot and extremely sensitive to cold air, I would not have been able to detect it. So I concluded that under this sarcophagus, there was a stone chamber, and its switch was in this sarcophagus. ”
"And when I visited ancient books before, I found an object and a family in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas". It is rumored that this thing can turn things upside down and change yin and yang; It nourishes all things and immortalizes the body. And on the day of the alignment of the seven stars in each era, there is an unfathomable power. Instrument scanning of shielding points couldn't be easier. ”
"Okay, don't talk nonsense, the entrance is in the sarcophagus, and the mechanism will definitely not go beyond this stone room, you and I will find it quickly." Chu Fei fumbled indoors as he spoke.
"Huh, He's Bi? Although there are countless myths and legends about this thing since ancient times, it can't be true, right? Turning things upside down? Seven Stars in a Row? Really? Then again, there are so many mysterious things in this world. If there is such a thing, it is not completely impossible. Hmph, I'm not as good as you in terms of the study of ancient artifacts and the history of the Three Kingdoms, but when it comes to mechanical skills, then you can't compare with me," Fat Tiger said and jumped into the sarcophagus.
