Chapter Twenty-Four: The Celestial Soldiers
"Old man, although I didn't read much, I still graduated from primary school, and I also won a little red flower in history class at that time. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Now you just flicker a few words, you just want Jin Ye to believe you, it's a bit difficult, right? ”
Jin Buchang was also full of doubts about Old Man Mu, and pouted with disbelief: "According to what you say now, Qin Shihuang's old boy ruled the six countries, relying on a batch of live zongzi?" That's a bit unrealistic, isn't it? Are you fooling us, or is this old man of yours fooling you? ”
"This is a bad ......" Old Man Mu restrained his smile, his expression became a little serious, and he opened his mouth with a sneer: "History? Where does history come from? It is people who sketch and write history. ”
He made no secret of the sarcasm and disdain in his words: "To be human cannot escape the innate dispositions of arrogance, jealousy, anger, laziness, greed, gluttony, and lust." Any temptation of any kind can lead to a real history that will be buried in the long river of time. History? ”
"Hahahaha......" Old Man Mu suddenly laughed loudly: "History is always just the triumph of the victor, and only the victor has the right to write history!" ……”
I have been speechless, quietly listening to the conversation between Old Man Mu and Jin Buchang, and trying to sort out the information revealed by Old Man Mu in his words.
Old Man Mu is narrating a so-called fact in his mouth, but this fact seems to touch the normal worldview of most people.
Qin Shi Huang unified the six kingdoms, relying on the power of gods and ghosts? And after the unification, Qin Shi Huang, the reason for burning books and pit Confucianism was to hide the power of gods and ghosts? Either point can really subvert a normal person's worldview. If the twilight old man in front of me was not a great man who once dominated the world, then I would definitely think that this old man was completely insane.
I don't believe in ghosts and gods, I only believe in science, and the reason why science can't explain things is not that science can't explain them, but that science hasn't developed to the level where they can be explained.
After experiencing Ni Tian's deception, I feel that I have grown a lot invisibly. At the very least, my not-so-bright mind has begun to try to analyze the various problems that are encountered.
How much of Old Man Mu's words can be believed? I can't confirm it, but the black-haired monster with the bloody corpse in the grassland tomb inadvertently resurfaced in my mind.
If, this black-haired bloody corpse is the heavenly soldier in the mouth of the old man Mu. It seems to me that it is more of an unknown beast than a man, and that it is not an ordinary beast in its ferocity and tyranny. But even so, if you have to say that you will not die or die, it still seems a little too far-fetched. After all, I have seen with my own eyes that after facing a cold head-on slash, this black-haired bloody corpse finally returned to the West Heaven, and the dead could not die again.
It is undeniable that in the era of cold weapons, this ferocious unknown monster can indeed play a great role on the battlefield. But if it is placed in the current era of science and technology, let alone nuclear weapons, atomic bombs, hydrogen bombs and other top-level armament deterrence, even if a shuttle assault rifle is sprayed, I estimate that it will be beaten into a hornet's nest.
If you think about it according to this logic, Old Man Mu's purpose of wanting to explore the secrets of the Heavenly Soldiers seems to become even more mysterious, because this so-called Heavenly Soldier has no substantial value at all in military affairs.
"Damn, destroy the three views, destroy the three views." Jin Buchang kept shaking his head, sighing and muttering to himself.
Old Man Mu chatted with interest, and the words became more and more: "Old man, I know that it is really not easy for you to accept this kind of strange power and chaos. The Qin Dynasty is too far away from modern times, and many things have long been unverifiable and disappeared into the torrent of history, which has also left too many mysteries through the ages.
According to the records, it took the first emperor nine years to dominate the world. In just nine years, the other six countries that were also the Seven Heroes of the Warring States were annexed, and from a military point of view, in the Spring and Autumn Warring States in the era of cold weapons, this was a completely impossible miracle.
Although Qin is strong, killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 is the most basic military common sense in the era of cold weapons. So how did the Qin State quickly complete the supply of soldiers after the war?
According to the data, the reason why Qin Shi Huang chose the Terracotta Warriors and Horses to accompany the burial is that the prototype of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses is the most brave and good at fighting, conquering all the battles, and being invincible. But so far, no record of this corps has been found, even when Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, fought to the death with the main army of Qin, he did not show up?
According to the records, the first emperor burned books and pit Confucianism in order to strengthen the centralization of power and strengthen the control of the people's thoughts. Qin Shi Huang, a statesman and military strategist, if it wasn't for some special reason, how could he use the method of burning history books and killing Confucian scholars to strengthen the centralization of power?
Joke, big joke! Hahahahaha. Old Man Mu laughed to himself, but I was really speechless for the questions he asked.
After Old Man Mu laughed, his tone returned to calm, and his unhurried voice sounded again: "So, are you willing to believe in a history full of flaws and mysteries?" Or are you willing to believe what you see with your own eyes. ”
Jin Buchang's mouth moved, he wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything in the end, and instead fell into thought, and his hand touched the extremely thick gold chain hanging around his neck.
Old Man Mu didn't rush and gave us enough time to sort out our thoughts. To be honest, I still haven't figured out why Old Man Mu is telling us this. Even if what he said was true, what does it have to do with me and Jin Buchang? With the power of the Mu family, even if they want to explore some so-called mysterious tombs, there should not be any shortage of manpower and need to support the pot.
The hall was silent again for a long time, and then Old Man Mu slowly spoke again: "Old man, I'm old, and my legs and feet are not good, and I can't do this kind of thing to go to the tomb." So I invited you two here this time, just to ask you to do a little favor with your face, and follow my people to the ancient tomb in the suicide note. ”
My eyes widened, almost suspecting that I had misheard, what? Do you want us to rob his grave? Depend on! Sick, right?
To tell you the truth, I am indeed full of curiosity about the mysterious ancient tomb that Old Man Mu said. After all, if this is true, then this journey is very likely to become an epic journey to uncover the mystery of Qin Shi Huang's domination of the world and the origin of the terracotta warriors. Although the means may be illegal, it is undoubtedly full of curiosity and temptation for anyone.
But the problem is that Jin Buchang is a tomb robber, and it may be useful to find him. What about me? Why did Mr. Mu invite me to join the gang? From a professional point of view, I am not a professional tomb robber at all, no matter how stupid this old man is, he will not go to great lengths to invite a half-hanger to help him rob the tomb, right? Besides, judging from the analysis of the power of the Mu family in the south of the city, I really don't believe that they will not be able to invite tomb robbers who are more powerful than Jin Buchang.
I smiled and tried to be polite: "Master Mu raises love, I believe you also know that I am just a small shopkeeper of an antique shop, and I am not a person in the tomb robbery road at all." I'm afraid I'm really afraid that I'm dragging you back, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it......"
