Chapter 819: Spring and Autumn

Obviously, Xinlan and Xia Qing were not very convinced of the judgments of Gao Chao and the fat man.

Gao Chao explained: "You know what? Now the earliest cast iron cultural relics can be found, that is, the iron sword that appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period, or some cast iron artifacts, because the process at that time seems to have been very mature, so some people believe that in fact, the time when iron tools appeared, much earlier than the Spring and Autumn Period, but it is very strange that the iron artifacts of that era seem to have disappeared suddenly in a certain period of time, so that if you want to use the unearthed cultural relics as a judgment, it can only be said that it is about 2200 years ago. ”

Xia Qing nodded and said: "I also know this, but I just want to know, how do you judge that this gate has a history of more than 2,000 years, I hope you can give a reasonable explanation." ”

Gao Chao smiled and said: "This is our housekeeping ability, don't forget, we are from the antique industry, and we definitely have our own methods for identifying these things." ”

The fat man said impatiently at this time: "Old Gao, why are you explaining this to her?" Did you talk to her? ”

Gao Chao said: "Forget it, since Xia Qing wants to know, then I will say a few words, you look over here......"

As he spoke, Gao Chao touched the iron door in front of him with his hand, and then stroked it gently, he continued: "The cast iron process of that era is different from now, because the cast iron cannot reach a very reasonable proportion now, so the carbon in the cast iron often has problems, which will leave a lot of trachoma on the surface of the cast iron, and some of these trachoma can even be seen directly with the naked eye, and let's put it this way, the iron tools found on the market now are only the case in the Spring and Autumn Period, if it comes to the time after the Warring States Period, there will be no such situation, Because at that time, the cast iron process was already very mature. ”

The fat man couldn't help but say: "Alas, let's hurry up, just finish it in one or two sentences, to put it simply, if you see such a rough iron tool in the ancient tomb, it must be from the Spring and Autumn Period, is this always okay?" Spring and Autumn are more than 2,000 years away from us, so you should understand, right? My Miss Xia? ”

Xia Qing's face was a little red, you know, she is a very demanding woman, and she studied in the UK, whether in archaeology or practice, she has never had an opponent to compete with her, but now, she was in a Chinese tomb, lost to two Changsha antique landlords, I can't help but say that this made her a little unbearable.

Xinlan said at this time: "I didn't expect it, there are still so many places worth studying here, Brother Gao, you have nothing to do in the future, you have to make up for me in the future." ”

Gao Chao smiled and nodded, but the fat man said to Xinlan on the side: "You're okay, we still have something to do, if you are interested in going to Changsha in the future, my brother will take you to play, now, hurry up and think of a way, how to open this iron gate." ”

It seems that everyone has finally forgotten the stubble of the iron gate identification just now, so Xia Qing has more or less a step down, and naturally said: "This iron gate should be solid, it doesn't look like there is a mechanism inside, if you judge according to my experience, this iron door should be closed with brute force, so if we want to open it, it's really very difficult." ”

The fat man was stunned and said, "Brute force is strict? But...... But such a big iron gate must have several tons, who can use brute force to close this iron gate? ”

Xia Qing glanced at the fat man and said, "This can't be done by one person, have you forgotten what is painted in the mural?" I think it's probably the result of a lot of people working together. ”

Gao Chao was a little surprised and said: "If this is the case, those people tried their best to completely seal the iron gate, but they ...... Won't they be able to get out? ”

Xia Qing nodded and said, "This situation is indeed a bit special, those people may have completely buried themselves in the main burial chamber. ”

The fat man was stunned and said, "I'm grass, this is too inhumane, isn't it?" ”

Gao Chao looked at Xia Qing and said, "If you say so, could it be that those people in the 101st Institute back then, or those people later, they haven't opened the main tomb?" ”

Xia Qing checked the iron gate again, shook his head and said, "It seems that there is really no trace of being opened, you come here." ”

Everyone looked in the direction that Xia Qing had guided, and it turned out that Xia Qing pointed to the place where the two iron doors were closed, and she said, "You see, there is still a door ointment left between these gaps, if it has been opened, how can these things be left?" ”

"Door God Anointing?" Xinlan was a little surprised and said, "What is that?" I haven't heard of it. ”

The fat man said on the side: "The door god ointment is the wax used to seal, and it is usually found in the cracks of the ancient tomb doors. ”

Xia Qing said: "This is not necessarily wax, and some will also be replaced with glutinous rice paste." ”

The fat man said helplessly: "Okay, okay, no matter what it is, you are right, it is true that there is a door god anointing ...... among these two doors" He suddenly said happily: "I am in a good mood to see this, hehe, it seems that the two treasures in the main tomb are still there, and we have hope to complete the task this time." ”

What the fat man thought of was not necessarily to really complete the task, he was thinking about how much those two treasures were worth, and the purpose of his coming down this time was nothing more than that.

Gao Chao was also studying this iron gate, and he suddenly said: "I thought of a way, but I don't know if it will work." ”

The fat man said, "Hurry up." ”

Gao Chao thought about it but shook his head a little hesitantly and said, "Oh, or forget it, it's too risky, forget it......"

As a result, this caused everyone's dissatisfaction, especially even Xinlan frowned and said: "Brother Gao, when did you become such a mother-in-law, is there any way to always say what everyone discusses, this is really not like you." ”

The fat man also scolded: "Little Chaozi, why are you so twittering, hurry up." ”

Xia Qing hugged her shoulders and didn't speak, but there was already a look of disdain in her eyes.

Gao Chao only sighed, then glanced at Xia Qing and said, "Comrade Xiao Xia, I thought of those corpse insects in the battery. ”

The fat man was stunned: "What is it?" Corpse...... Corpse bugs? This name sounds scary, what does it mean? ”

Xinlan was also very puzzled, so Gao Chao only told the two of them what happened in the storage room before, and then said: "My idea is to lure those corpse worms over, and then let them consume such a large amount of cast iron, in this case, we can go in, right?" ”

The fat man exclaimed: "My grass, Xiao Chaozi, you are trying to kill us, if those corpse insects only eat the cast iron gate, it's okay, if they suddenly want to change their taste, then won't a few of us be finished?" ”

Gao Chao said helplessly: "I'm just thinking like this, I don't want to say it just now, you have to say it, you see, now it's a little strange for me, right?" ”

Xinlan also shook her head and said, "Brother Gao, I feel that this matter is a bit risky, and it may indeed do more harm than good." ”

At this moment, Xia Qing suddenly said: "Actually, there are not necessarily so many dangers, as long as we can control those insects in a certain area, then they will not pose a threat to us." ”

Gao Chao was stunned and said, "Xia Qing, do you still have a lot of things to hide from me?" ”
