"Lu Wen!" Everyone here sighed except Abu who was cleaning up the bottles and cans. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

But of course I remember this Lu Wen, this is the curse mark on my grandfather's arm that my father told me, but how did this Western Regions text come to Kunlun Mountain, does this Silk Road still pass through here? However, this Kunlun Mountain is also connected to Xinjiang, and I have never been able to figure out why this ancient script belonging to the ancient kingdom of Loulan appeared here.

My father couldn't figure it out, so he took a flashlight in his hand and shone it on the stele, slowly observed, and counted the words on it, and after a while, he turned to the front of the inscription in the book, and counted the words on the stele again.

At this time, my father seemed to have discovered something and said to us: "The inscription of Lu Wen on this stone tablet and the official script of the Han Dynasty seem to record the same thing, you come and see, the number of words is about the same, but I don't know what it is talking about." ”

The second uncle also turned around, looked at the two stone tablets for a while, and said in surprise: "It seems that this is the case, if nothing else, the content of these two stone tablets is indeed the same!" As he spoke, he pulled me who was standing next to me, "Ji Ming, don't you know these ancient Chinese characters?" Come and take a good look, what is it talking about? ”

"Oooh!" I hurriedly reacted, took a flashlight and looked down at the inscriptions from top to bottom, this number of words is not very many, I recalled some ancient characters in my mind, thought for a moment, and began to slowly decipher.

As for the Lu Wen, I can't understand it, it's crooked here and straight there, and in our eyes it's completely alien writing.

I just had to stare at these official books, and after a while, I had an understanding of the general content of this official book inscription, and took out a sheepskin diary from my backpack and began to record it.

I wanted to wait until I finished recording the contents of this inscription before explaining it to them, so I didn't rush to say, and my father was puzzled when he saw that I had actually memorized the notes: "What, Ji Ming, learn from your grandfather?" The sheepskin that is still used, you can, and if you can't remember anything in the future, you can flip through the notes, which can be very useful. ”

"Hmm." I nodded, put the flashlight in my mouth, and began to record, looking up at the stone tablet, and then bowing my head to record, and after a while, my neck was sore, and I had already written most of this sheepskin, which was also the record.

"Is the record finished? After the record, let's talk about the content of this. The second uncle urged.

I put the parchment diary and pen back in my backpack and said, "This is a story about the ancient kingdom of Loulan and the Han Dynasty. ”

I used a flashlight to illuminate the inscription of that section of the official book, and said: "The Loulan State during the Han Dynasty sometimes became the eyes and ears of the Xiongnu, resisting the Han Dynasty with the Xiongnu, but later belonged to the Han, anyway, it was between the Han and the Xiongnu, skillfully maintaining the political life of the country, but because Loulan was in the communication fortress between the Han and the Western Regions, the Han could not cross this section of the area to attack the Xiongnu, and the Xiongnu could not threaten the Han Dynasty by pretending to borrow the power of Loulan, so the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu tried their best to implement a soft policy towards Loulan. ”

I moved the flashlight to the other half of the inscription and continued: "Loulan was originally neutral in the Xiongnu and Han dynasties, but when the expeditionary force of the Han Dynasty attacked a subject country of the Xiongnu, the king of Loulan was far away with the Xiongnu, and also set up troops to ambush the Han soldiers, which completely angered the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent troops to attack Loulan, the king of Loulan was very frightened, so he immediately opened the city gate to apologize to the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked Loulan to monitor the Xiongnu and report the situation to the Han Dynasty at any time. Speaking of which, the content of the inscription was deciphered.

"Gone?" My dad wondered.

"It's over, this inscription probably records such a story, don't you see that my flashlight is shooting at the bottom of the stele?" I replied.

I know in my heart that this Loulan ancient country is one of the 36 powerful countries in the Western Regions, close to Dunhuang, the park is closely related to the Han Dynasty before and after, and even the "Hanshu Western Regions Records" has a record, this book is like this: "Shanshanguo, whose real name is Loulan, Wang Zhi Mucheng, go to Yangguan 1,600 li, go to Chang'an 6,100 li, household 1,570, mouth 44,100. This is a general introduction to the situation of the ancient kingdom of Loulan.

But this Loulan ancient country to the Han Zhao Emperor period, the relationship between the two countries has deteriorated, Loulan ancient country is basically the puppet of the Han Dynasty, Loulan country is close to the Yumen Pass, the Han envoys often have to pass through the Yumen Pass to the Western Regions, this way to pass through the territory of Loulan country called Bailongdui desert, the desert often has the wind will be quicksand into the air to form a dragon, so that pedestrians lose their way.

Therefore, the Han Dynasty would continue to ask the ancient country of Loulan to provide guides and drinking water for the envoys, but because the Han envoys often abused the guides, the ancient kingdom of Loulan later refused the request of the Han Dynasty, which was the reason for the deterioration of relations between the two countries, and later the Han Dynasty directly sent the prince of Loulan as a hostage with a princess to Loulan, in order to control the situation in Loulan, and then it was convenient to garrison troops in Loulan to attack the Xiongnu.

Later, after the power of the Han Dynasty weakened, the Loulan Kingdom became extremely declining, until it came to an end.

At this time, the second uncle stood beside the stone tablet, stroked the Lu Wen on the stone tablet with his hand, and asked, "Then can you know whose tomb it is?" ”

I replied categorically: "Of course not, at most this can only confirm that the owner of the tomb is a very powerful person in the Han Dynasty, or it may be the tomb of the ancient kingdom of Loulan." ”

My father also felt that it made sense when he heard it, and said: "That's right, the tomb of the Western Regions is not like this, these sixty-four hexagrams are classics of the Central Plains, this Loulan Ancient Kingdom does not understand these, and the bronzes and those bottles and jars on this ladder do not look like things in the Western Regions, you think about it, we are in Kunlun Mountain, around the Valley of Death, where are the tombs of the Western Regions." ”

"Hmm." My second uncle and I nodded in response.

"But how do you explain this?" The second uncle's hand had not yet been lowered from the stone tablet, and he was puzzled.

My father thought for a moment and said, "Maybe the owner of this tomb has some connection with the ancient kingdom of Loulan!" Just now we also listened to Ji Ming explain the content of these inscriptions, the owner of this tomb must have a close connection with the things described on the inscription, otherwise it would be unreasonable for this stone tablet to be erected, as for Lu Wen, the craftsmen who built this tomb must also have people from the ancient country of Loulan. ”

My father does have a point, otherwise I can't find any other better way to explain it, and I really can't say that the owner of this tomb has nothing to do with the ancient kingdom of Loulan.

As we talked, we suddenly found that Abu had gone nowhere, and the second uncle thought that there was something wrong with this Abu, and shouted in this pit: "Abu, Abu, what are you doing?" Where did it go? ”

When Abu heard this, he quickly replied, "Hey, second master, am I here?" It turns out that there is a pit next to this pit, and there are many treasures in it. And Abu's voice came from the side of the pit, not at all in the pit, and his voice was much lower.

When we heard Abu say this, we hurriedly jumped up the stairs and looked at the back of the huge pit, and there was a small tomb here, and in the middle of this pit stood a stone sculpture, and half of this stone sculpture was a human, and the other half was a peacock, especially the tail behind it, which was very eye-catching, and we could tell at a glance that this was the tail of the peacock.
