Professor Chen stretched out his hand and touched the lid of the coffin and said, "Lao Zhang, if you check here again and confirm that there is no problem, you will open the coffin in a while!" ”

Through Zhang Gong's meticulous inspection, all possible threats were ruled out, and several people discussed, and the coffin opening work was carried out in this way.

With the assistance of Zhu Gong, Zhang Gong put the shovel into the gap of the sarcophagus, and vigorously pried the sarcophagus lid open.

Seeing these bamboo slips, Professor Chen sighed and said lightly: "Alas, it seems that everything here was done by himself, and the one lying down just now was himself." ”

Feng Weiguo asked puzzledly: "How are you sure?" So how did he do it? ”

Professor Chen picked up a bamboo slip and looked at it, and did not reply to Feng Weiguo directly, but said in a light tone: "This bamboo slip records the funeral culture of the Qin Dynasty, and the content of the bamboo slip here should all revolve around the theme of his profession, and it should all record the procedures and methods of etiquette, worship, and funeral, it seems that he is quite dedicated." ”

"Then why is his tomb so fascinating?"

"Maybe it's a kind of misalignment to be fascinated by him, the folklore is all about the information on those pieces of jade, and those are enough to arouse the interest of many parties, and the legends are long and more, so they will naturally produce more legends."

"And that's how the tomb is over?"

"Yes, our mission should be over here, and your place will take over the rest."

"What about the other scenes shown on the bridge in the General's Tomb haven't appeared yet?"

"Those may not be completely real, so far at least the fire is there, the infinite death loop is there, and the slide to the second layer of the ice cave is indeed dangerous, as for the beast biting scene, it is estimated that those beasts have already died in thousands of years."

"And that's it?"

"Yes, it's over, there is not much suspense, there is not as much thriller and supernatural as in the movie, only plain and insipid discoveries."

"But how have the few doubts you mentioned just now changed?"

"This place should have been done by himself, the corpse outside may not have been intended to burn us, but to guide us to the other side to set fire here, so that the ice outside this secret room could be melted, under the effect of high temperature, the stench I smelled actually came from the grease on the crack of the stone door, which should have been smeared by himself, activated the mechanism from the inside and closed it, and then lay on the stone bed and waited for death to come; The entanglement of the identity level is also after the sarcophagus under the stone bed was discovered, I have a new judgment, seeing that he put the bamboo slips in the sarcophagus, and he is lying outside, which shows that he is very dedicated and cherishes his achievements, and he smeared grease on the stone door should also be to better preserve these bamboo slips, which also shows that he understands the harm of air to the preservation of bamboo slips; As for those escape holes, it should be that after discovering these small actions of the craftsmen, he made mistakes and used this hole as an entrance to transport materials, so there must be a mechanism in this hole that can lead to the escape hole outside. ”

"Okay, your judgment is always the most credible, then after finding out the last piece of jade, we will conduct a detailed inspection tomorrow, and then we will officially hand it over."

"Well, I'll make a formal report tomorrow, so let's put an end to this place for the time being."

After Zhang Gong took Feng Weiguo to find out the last piece of jade in the legend, he smashed it in front of everyone, and found the mechanism that Professor Chen judged to close the stone door in the secret room, and the mechanism that led to the escape passage was also found in the southernmost part, and Professor Chen judged it correctly.

Everything here ended with the same people and atmosphere as when Professor Chen and his party first arrived from Beijing. At the airport, Professor Chen led several members of the archaeological team to stand face to face with the local send-off personnel, and after shaking hands one by one, he said to Vice Mayor Zhao: "Mayor Zhao, thank you for your support to our archaeological team during this time, and you have time to be a guest in Beijing." ”

"Beijing is definitely going, Gadfly Mountain is just the beginning, there will be many things in the follow-up that need Professor Chen's help to implement, and you will be sure to trouble you when the time comes."

Professor Chen nodded and then turned to Feng Weiguo and said: "Director Feng, you have to work hard for everything here, these ancient tombs are the crystallization of ancient wisdom, but also the epitome of culture and civilization, there is not much laughter and laughter on the archaeological road, only mutual encouragement and support between our comrades, through this period of contact, I recognize you as a friend, your hometown, if we have time in the next year, we will go over to take a look, help you but a knot." ”

"During this time, I have learned a lot of things that I could not touch before, and I have a new level of understanding of archaeology, which are taught by you, a good teacher, and I will always remember them! If you have time in my hometown, I will arrange and coordinate, and that knot really makes me uncomfortable. In this way, we are about to separate, although I am reluctant to give up, but you have many tasks and are important, so don't say polite words, let's keep communicating at any time. ”

"Don't be sensational, hehe, go ahead, your task is also very heavy, these involve a lot of topics, that is, those people are martyred enough for you to study for a few years, not to mention those bamboo slips, although the temperature environment in the ice cave is said to be below zero, but the temperature conditions alone are definitely not enough to preserve the corpse, so you can continue to cooperate with multiple institutions and departments to study together."

After saying goodbye to Feng Weiguo, Professor Chen walked up to Sun Ju and said with a slight smile: "I have worked hard for you during this time, and those things have happened, thank you for everything you have done for us, thank you!" ”

"Haha, this is not just a guarantee for you, to borrow your words, we are providing security for the past, for tomorrow, for the past thousands of years of civilization, haha, don't say it, I feel sorry for these words."

Professor Chen smiled slightly, and said with a pun: "The guarantee of archaeology comes from the locality, and some rights and wrongs are also directly influenced by the locality. ”

After speaking, Professor Chen and a few people turned around and quickly boarded the plane through the special channel, and disappeared from the sight of several send-off personnel.
