Chapter 111: The Legendary Double-Edged Spear
That night, Li Xian took Zhang Wuchen and came to Sanwang Mountain again to start the "archaeological excavation" of the "Sanwang Mountain Tomb Site".
Due to the exploration work during the day, Li Xian did not have trouble working, and it only took two hours to find the location of the tomb.
In fact, this is not all because of Li Xian's skill in robbing tombs, one of the main reasons is that Murong Jun ordered the killing of King Wu Mourning in Choke Mountain, and then ordered the burial, although it was a princely gift, but after all, there was no intention, whether it was the specifications of the tomb or the means of anti-tomb robbery, it was too different from the ordinary princely tombs, and it was precisely because of this that Li Xian easily came to the tomb.
And when Li Xian came to the tomb and saw all this, he couldn't help but be angry in his heart, because there were no funeral goods in this seemingly vast tomb, not even the clay pots used by ordinary people!
The reason why Li Xian is angry is not because he is greedy for money, in fact, since he started to rob tombs in this life, Li Xian has only robbed and dug up the tombs of those who committed great crimes during his lifetime, bullied the people, and harmed the common people, and he had to do it as a last resort when his finances were particularly tight, and the reason why he "patronized" the tomb of the King of Wu Mourning was that he did not have any intention of obtaining property, and he came purely for the marksmanship of the King of Wu Mourning. And the reason why he was angry was mainly because the former Yan Murong Jun was really too deceitful, and he mourned the heroes of the Heavenly King, and after his death, he didn't even have any funeral goods, which was really a great insult to the Han heroes!
And when Li Xian came to the coffin in the middle, he found that the coffin had long since decayed, and there was nothing else there, only a pile of white bones, and this pile of white bones was only seen as a body, not a skull.
"Murong Jun, the Hulu Domain, originally buried the King of Wu Mourning Heaven with a ceremony in order to appease the hearts of the Han people in the world, but he didn't expect that it would be such a burial method and treat my Han family heroes like this, which is really hateful!" Seeing this scene, Li Xian couldn't help but grit his teeth and scold,
"It's hard to even preserve the body of the Martial Mourning Heavenly King here, and there will definitely be no marksmanship cheats." Li Xian was disappointed and angry, so he had to leave here in a huff, but at this moment, he suddenly saw a little cold light coming from the darkness, although this cold light was very weak, but because Li Xian's eyesight was much beyond ordinary people, coupled with the fact that he had been in battle for a long time, his sensitivity to murderous aura was also a big abnormality, so he could feel the abnormality.
"This bit of coldness, could it be the weapon used by the Martial Mourning Heavenly King?" Thinking of this, Li Xian couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and hurriedly walked towards you, where the cold glow was exuding.
When he came to that thing, Li Xian suddenly felt a burst of joy in his heart, because that thing was really a weapon, and according to historical records, it should be the personal weapon of the King of Martial Mourning, a two-edged spear!
This is the only legacy left by King Wu Mourning during his lifetime, and it is also the only burial item in the entire tomb!
The so-called two-edged spear, in fact, is a special weapon in ancient times, although he is also a spear, but a special spear with a spear head installed at both ends, this spear can kill people at both ends, so the killing efficiency is needless to say, but at the same time there is a drawback, because there are blades at both ends, it is easy to injure the owner, so non-martial arts can not be used.
With reverence, Li Xian carefully lifted the two-edged spear, but suddenly felt a sinking in his hand, and almost threw it to the ground.
Although Li Xian didn't care much about it at first, he was very strong, even if he had something of thirty or fifty pounds, it wouldn't make him feel the slightest heaviness, but now this guy actually made him almost throw him to the ground, which shows how extraordinary he is!
Li Xian shook his head with a wry smile, and then lifted the two-edged spear again, and gently checked it, feeling heavy in his hand, about more than eighty catties, only the handle of the spear was the thickness of a duck's egg, and it could be seen that the whole body of this two-edged spear was made of steel, and it was all solid!
"No wonder the King of Martial Mourning was able to hold this weapon invincible on the battlefield, and he used 10,000 infantry to defeat the famous general Murong Ke of Qianyan ten times, such a weapon is indeed admirable, it seems that the generals of Qianyan also know that they can't afford to use such a big guy, so they took it to the Wumourning Heavenly King to be buried."
Li Xian's heart was full of admiration for the Martial Mourning Heavenly King, gently stroked the two-edged spear, felt the coldness emanating from its body, and then said softly: "Two-edged spear, two-edged spear, you have been lonely for three hundred years, and now that it has come out again, I will definitely live up to your former name, and I will definitely make you famous in the world again, hungry for Hulu meat, thirsty for Hun blood!" ”
Although he didn't get the marksmanship of the Martial Mourning Heavenly King this time, after all, he got the weapon of the Martial Mourning Heavenly King, and Li Xian was not worth the trip. To be honest, he really needs this weapon now, because at the beginning on the battlefield, he suffered several times with bad weapons, and even almost died because the spear in his hand was broken when he was fighting against Yuan Nanjian.
Now that I have this iron spear, I believe that there will never be such a thing as a broken shaft again.
Therefore, Li Xian's heart was still a little excited, he hurriedly bowed to the body of the King of Wu Mourning, and promised that in the future, the body of the King of Wu Mourning would be moved back to the Central Plains Han Land and the number of honors was honored, and he was buried with a ceremony, so he left the cemetery with a double-edged spear.
Of course, out of respect for the king of martial mourning, and out of good professional ethics, Li did not forget to bury the cemetery when he left the cemetery, and at the same time set up some anti-theft measures in the cemetery to prevent some young people who do not know how to respect national heroes from desecrating the hero's body after breaking in.
After doing this, Li Xian returned to the station with Zhang Wuchen, who had been following closely and not saying a word.
Li Xian's station was actually in a military camp thirty miles away from Yingzhou, in fact, after the order of Gaozong's class master, Li Xian was supposed to return to the court with Li Ji, but Li Xian used to visit Su Mo's friends in the name of leading the palace guards under his command to stay.
In fact, except for some of Li Xian's palace guards who died in battle, most of the others were transferred to generals because of their military merits, and only a few remained by his side, but Gaozong had a decree to order Li Xian to select elites again in the army to enrich the palace guards, and the number of palace guards was increased from 200 to 300. For such a good thing, Li Xian naturally would not refuse, so he selected 300 elites from the army to enrich his command.
Therefore, now Li Xian is leading the latest elite he selected, most of these soldiers are the "righteous servants" of the end of Su who have fought side by side with Li Xian, and they are very admired by Li Xian's bravery, and they have received a lot of favors from Li Xian, so they are all loyal to Li Xian. It is precisely for this reason that Li Xian set up the camp thirty miles away from Yingzhou City, and stopped for a day for no reason, and no one under his command said a word about it.
After Li Xian returned to the camp, it was already the fourth watch, and according to the marching plan, he could rest for two more hours before setting off to enter Yingzhou City, but Li Xian lay in the tent and turned over and over but couldn't sleep, because he always felt that the double-edged spear he got was not so simple.
Because when he returned to the camp and weighed it, this double-edged spear was only eighty-five catties, and according to its length and thickness, it should be about one hundred catties.
So, Li Xian, who was preoccupied, simply got up and calculated on the ground with a sword with the help of the light.
After some precise calculations, Li Xian once again confirmed his conjecture, because according to the volume of this double-edged spear and the density of steel, its weight should not be less than one hundred and ten catties, but its weight was only eighty-five catties, and it was obvious that there was a problem here.
"Either the quality of the iron is not up to par, or there is something else in it."
Li Xian first denied the quality problem, because according to his experience, this double-edged spear was definitely made of stainless steel, and the quality could not be worse.
"In this way, it only proves that part of the spear shaft is hollow, could it be that there is a secret in it?" Thinking of this, Li Xian couldn't help but get excited, if the heavens were pitiful, there was a secret book of martial arts in it, wouldn't it be a great blessing for himself?
Therefore, Li Xian began to scratch his ears and cheeks to find out the secret of this double-edged spear.
However, since this thing was made of stainless steel, how could it be so easy to find out the so-called secret, unless the double-edged spear was cut from it, it was possible to find the hollow place, but at that time there was no sharp weapon that could cut through such pure steel, and it was too difficult to cut it off.
There is only one other way, and that is to set up a furnace and smelt the double-edged spear, and when it turns into molten iron, it will naturally reveal the hollow inside.
But this is even more impossible, first of all, Li Xian is not willing to damage this double-edged spear. And taking a step back, even if Li Xian was willing to damage it, when the spear shaft made of stainless steel was smelted into molten iron, even if there was a marksmanship secret book in it, it would definitely not be able to withstand such high temperature and damage.
"How can this be? Do I know that there is a secret in this double-edged spear, but I am indifferent to this secret lying in it? ”
Li Xian, who was extremely bored, took the two-edged spear and held it with his left hand, but his right hand was exerting force in the other place, he was originally bored under the boredom, but he suddenly felt a sudden loosening of his right hand, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and then his face showed a touch of ecstasy.
"Haha, it seems that God really treats me well, and let me unintentionally find such a big secret." Li Xian's heart was ecstatic, and he didn't stop in his hand, his right hand continued to exert force, only to feel that his hand was getting lighter and lighter, and the secret of the hollow barrel of the gun was about to be exposed in front of him.
