Chapter 95: The Qin Dynasty Sarcophagus
In the endless darkness, Wu Ming gradually woke up, he felt that he was lying on his back in a small space, a bit like a coffin, and under him lay a hard human body, which was obviously a dry corpse.
And on his body, there was a soft body, exuding a trace of body temperature, from the feeling of contact between the two, it can be concluded that it should be a woman, Wu Ming thought about it, and secretly said Could it be Alice?
He wanted to move, but found that his body did not have any strength at all, the bones of his whole body seemed to be scattered, and the true qi in his body was also completely dispersed, it seemed that the golden holy sword and the explosion produced by Francis at the end were too powerful, and even under the protection of Qi Shaoguang, he was still seriously injured.
"Alice, is that you?" Wu Ming moved his mouth with difficulty, and shouted at the woman lying on his chest, but the other party was the same as him, there was no reaction, and even Wu Ming basically couldn't feel her breathing.
"Oh no, where the hell is this? If we continue like this, we will not suffocate to death. Wu Ming secretly complained, but after a while, his consciousness was blurred again, and he fell asleep again after a while.
……
Two days later, in Xi'an, China, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, a tomb complex that has not yet been opened.
A large group of archaeological team members are looking at a sarcophagus in the middle of the tomb at the moment and are excited, in the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, the most is the terracotta warriors, but like this sarcophagus, I have never seen it, it took them a month to clean up the soil around the sarcophagus, today is the big day to uncover the sarcophagus and explore the truth.
Looking around, I saw that the sarcophagus was about one person tall, surrounded by carved patterns of the army, and an old professor with white hair was holding reading glasses and looking carefully around the sarcophagus, he was Professor Lin Qingshan, an authoritative professor of the Department of Archaeology of Peking University.
"Teacher, who do you think is in this sarcophagus?" A handsome girl next to the old professor asked, she was Professor Lin's protégé Mo Qian, and this time she came with Lin Qingshan to witness the opening of the sarcophagus.
"I thought it would be a concubine at first, but now it seems that it should be a general." Lin Qingshan said thoughtfully.
"Teacher, let's open it up and take a look." Mo Qian couldn't wait to say that since she accompanied Professor Lin to join this archaeological project, all she has seen are terracotta warriors and horses made of clay, and she has not seen the real bones of the Qin Dynasty.
"Well, everyone get ready...... Lin Qingshan instructed the disciples behind him, the biggest problem in archaeology is not how to excavate it, but how to protect it after excavation.
The sarcophagus didn't know what kind of gluing was used, it was very tightly combined, everyone used a lot of methods, but they couldn't pry it open, and finally used the stupidest method, little by little, the layer of white things that glued the sarcophagus was scraped open with a very thin knife, and finally with the joint force of everyone, the sarcophagus was finally pried open a crack, and everyone let out a burst of cheers.
"Quick, quick, be careful, pull the lid of the sarcophagus back slowly, and the students below pay attention to it." Professor Lin Qingshan, who was standing next to the sarcophagus, turned around and carefully commanded with his back to the sarcophagus, he was about to reveal the true identity of the owner in this sarcophagus, how could he not let his heart surge.
"That, that, that......" As the sarcophagus was gradually pulled apart, Mo Qian, who was standing next to the sarcophagus, suddenly pointed to the inside of the sarcophagus and stammered, with an incredible expression on his face.
"What's the matter, Mo Qian, this, this, this ......" Lin Qingshan also turned around when he heard Mo Qian's voice, and when he saw the situation in the sarcophagus, he was the same as Mo Qian, pointing to the sarcophagus with a shocked face and trembling.
Seeing this, everyone hurriedly relieved the sarcophagus cover, climbed up the earthen platform in one go, leaned over to take a look, and was immediately stunned by the scene in the sarcophagus.
I saw a man and a woman lying in the sarcophagus, the man looked to be no more than twenty years old, he looked like Sven, but there were a lot of blood stains on his face, he should be Asian; And the woman is lying on the man's body at the moment, looking from the side, the bridge of the nose is very high, it is obvious that she is white European, and both of them look like they should be modern. At this moment, the skin on both of them is blue and purple, as if they have been dead for a long time.
"Old, teacher, what's going on? How could there be two such people in the sarcophagus of the Qin Dynasty? The girl named Mo Qian looked at her teacher blankly, the things in front of her were so unbelievable that they simply subverted all her understanding of archaeology, two corpses that looked like modern people were lying in the sarcophagus more than 2,000 years ago, and they had just seen that the sarcophagus was sealed to death.
"I don't know what's going on with this." Lin Qingshan shook his head and said helplessly, facing his many disciples, he really didn't know how to explain to them.
"Professor, what now?" A male student beside Lin Qingshan asked tremblingly, at this moment, everyone fell into an inexplicable fear and confusion, people will have such emotions when facing unknown things.
"Ahem, cough, cough ......" At this moment, the man in the sarcophagus coughed violently, it turned out that it was Wu Ming who breathed fresh air all of a sudden, and he couldn't adapt to it, he was lying in the sarcophagus with Alice, fell into a coma, and was almost suffocated to death, but fortunately, they met Lin Qingshan They opened the sarcophagus and sent fresh air in time, this time he slowly woke up, just now he just regained consciousness, so he took a few breaths of fresh air, and this time he coughed.
"Ah......, the corpse." The male classmate who asked the question just now was the first to shout, and then a group of people suddenly dispersed, only Lin Qingshan and Mo Qian did not move their steps, they knew that there were no ghosts in this world, and the man in front of them was obviously a living person who had not yet died.
"Alice, how are you?" Wu Ming ignored them, but gently held Alice's shoulders on his chest, shook and asked, but she still hadn't woken up, it seemed that Alice's injuries were no less than his.
"Ahem, can you help us up?" Wu Ming raised his eyelids, barely squeezed out a smile on his face, and looked at Lin Qingshan beside the sarcophagus and said weakly.
"Mo Qian, come and help, you guys, come back and help." Hearing Wu Ming's authentic Mandarin, Lin Qingshan's heart was settled, and he immediately commanded the people behind him, and then together with Mo Qian, he helped Alice from Wu Ming's body, and then a few students came over, and helped Wu Ming up with fear on their faces, revealing the dried corpse under him.
"Thank you, I think you're looking for that brother." Wu Ming stood beside the sarcophagus and pointed to the dried corpse in the sarcophagus.
"Hehe, we're interested in you now." Seeing that Wu Ming and the others didn't look anything unusual after they got up, Mo Qian's courage hit a little, and while helping Alice, he said with a smile to Wu Ming.
"Well, yes, Mo Qian is right, we are more interested in you than in him now, hahaha." Lin Qingshan also laughed, what he wanted to know most now was why the two modern people were still alive in the sarcophagus of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang more than two thousand years ago.
"Ahem, let's drink it first." Wu Ming licked his chapped lips and said to Mo Qian on the side, he saw that she was carrying a kettle, Mo Qian hurriedly smiled and handed his kettle to Wu Ming, Wu Ming took the kettle, but walked to Alice first, unscrewed the lid of the kettle, pinched her small mouth, poured some water into it, and then drank a little himself.
"Ahem......" Alice also woke up faintly, and found that Wu Ming was standing in front of her, and she was surrounded by a man and a woman with her arms crossed, and there were many strangers standing around, so she subconsciously wanted to break free of the support of the two and run to Wu Ming's side.
"Alice, don't be afraid, they're all good people." Wu Ming helped Alice from Lin Qingshan and Mo Qian's hands, said with a smile, then gently shook her arm, and whispered in her ear: "Alice, don't talk yet, I'll deal with it, remember, you must close your eyes later." ”
"Ahem, I think everyone must be surprised, why do we two modern people appear in this sarcophagus, come on, come closer, let me explain to you in detail." As he spoke, Wu Ming took out the amnestic stick from his arms and adjusted the time.
"Look, we can appear in this sarcophagus because of it, everyone look carefully." Wu Ming raised the amnestic stick high, pointed the blue light at everyone, and then gently pressed the button, after a dazzling blue light, everyone only felt a flower in front of them, and then saw a man and a woman standing next to the sarcophagus.
"Hey, who are you? How to trespass into our archaeological site, go away, don't destroy the relics. A student from Lin Qingshan shouted at Wu Ming.
"Everyone, I'm sorry, our brother and sister were shopping outside just now, and accidentally fell down and climbed in, let's go immediately." Wu Ming hurriedly smiled, full of nonsense, and then helped Alice to leave quickly.
"Mo Qian, you will go out and explain to the security personnel at the scene, you must supervise more, don't let idle people enter the scene, we are going to open the sarcophagus today, such an important matter, I don't want any accidents." Lin Qingshan said to Mo Qian.
"Well, okay, teacher, hey, teacher, the sarcophagus is open, look." Mo Qian agreed, and was about to turn around and walk outside, looking for a good explanation from the security guard, but found that the sarcophagus lid on the stone platform had been opened.
"What? The sarcophagus was opened, could it be that the man and the woman were tomb robbers just now? Quick, Mo Qian, you quickly take someone to call the security guards to stop them, and the others come with me to see if there is anything missing in the sarcophagus and protect the relics in the sarcophagus. Lin Qingshan turned around and looked, and sure enough, he found that the lid of the sarcophagus had been opened, and hurriedly commanded nervously.
It turned out that when Wu Ming woke up, he called the car soul Xiaohong in the Ferrari through the control bead, and asked her to come over to pick him up quickly, and at this moment he and Alice were already on the way to the Crossing Authority.
The next day, a shocking news came from the Chinese archaeological community, that is, a dry corpse of more than 2,000 years was found at the excavation site of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shi Huang, and the news revealed that the muscles of the dried corpse were still very elastic, just like a living person. It's just that the dried corpse was immediately taken over by the state security department and transported away, and this news was immediately denied by the Chinese official, and the relevant witnesses were also given a gag order not to leak half a word, and in the end, it was not done, of course, this is all a later story.
