Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Bow and the Crossbow
As I shouted, I pushed Yang Gang and Shangguan Yaxiong to both sides, and I turned around and lay down forward. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Smack...... After two sound......s, suddenly a gust of wind swept over my head, and I looked up to find that a spear flew out of the gate of the Han Palace, and disappeared from my sight in an instant, we got up and looked out of the temple gate, the spear flew to the rammed earth wall of the underground palace, and with a bang, the spear hit the wall directly, straight into the extremely thick wall, and the pole was trembling.
"What's that?" Shangguan Yaxiong slowly got up, covered in dust and asked me in horror.
I looked at the still shaking spear, and I was standing between the two of them, and if I had reacted badly, I would have been pierced by the spear that flew out, or taken out of the palace by the spear that flew out, and pierced into the wall on the spear.
"That's a spear." I replied to Shangguan Yaxiong in a daze.
"Spears? How can a spear fly? Yang Gang asked me with a frown.
I looked at Yang Gang and replied, "The ghost knows how the spear can fly." ”
"I'm scared to death, I almost hit the road again, this spear stabbed must see Lord Yama." Shangguan Yaxiong looked at me, perhaps she saw the fear in my heart from my face.
"What about that thing?" I looked at Yang Gang's hand, and there was nothing in his hand at this time.
Yang Gang raised his hands, and there was indeed nothing in his hands: "I don't know, you pushed me just now, and after you got up, it was gone." ”
"Look for it, see what it is." I was reluctant to throw it away, and I was almost killed by a spear.
But the three of us searched for a long time with a flashlight, and we didn't even see a shadow of a ball, and we didn't know where it rolled at the moment when Yang Gang got out of his hand.
"No, it's gone!" Shangguan Yaxiong was also puzzled, after all, there was no dead corner in the middle of the Han Palace, and there were things that could be easily found on the ground.
"Forget it, let's see how the spear flies out." I gave up looking for the glowing ball and instead looked for how the spear that nearly killed me came out.
The mystery was behind the throne screen, I thought, and I approached cautiously, not daring to walk directly to the throne.
There was still a lot of space behind the throne, and we saw a huge crossbow machine, fixed behind the throne.
"Such a big ballista, is it a legendary giant ballista?" Yang Gang exclaimed.
The ballista machine is supported by a large triangular bracket, not on a cart that can be propelled, so the statement of the giant ballista is inaccurate. The crossbow machine and the triangular stand are mainly made of bronze, so after all this time, it is still intact and can fire huge arrows.
"Oh, that spear isn't a spear, it's a huge arrow." Shangguan Yaxiong also understood that there were no arrows on the crossbow machine, leaving only a mark in the shape of a giant arrow, where the dust was scarce.
"Strong bows and crossbows, all from Han." I am also amazed by the Korean crossbow, after all, such a huge crossbow machine, since we entered the palace of the Han Dynasty did not hear any abnormal sound, obviously the crossbow machine has always been wound, more than 2,000 years, it can still shoot as usual, and the power is huge, I have to be amazed.
Korea was a strong man in making bows and crossbows, and it was the first spear among the seven heroes at that time, and it was reasonable to put this kind of giant crossbow in the palace of the Han king.
"It can't be a burst bolt, right?" Shangguan Yaxiong said.
I'm also thinking about this question, according to the crossbow bolt mechanism on the cross-sea bridge, even if this giant crossbow can be fired in bursts, as long as the opportunity is no longer triggered, then the crossbow machine will no longer be wound, and there will be no giant arrows to shoot again, which is safe for the time being.
Thinking of the mechanism, I said again: "Let's go outside and take a look, Yang just picked up the glowing ball, and the giant arrow shot out, it should have touched the mechanism at that time, and the mechanism was under the glowing ball." ”
Before the three of us turned back to the throne, we could see very clearly under the flashlight, there was a clever mechanism in the original position where the glowing ball was placed, the shape was similar to the tee seat with the top golf ball, and there was a section below the tee seat, obviously this section was under the throne before, and the glowing ball had been pressed underneath, when the ball was taken away, it immediately rose up, and then activated the mechanism, and the giant arrow immediately broke away from the bowstring of the giant crossbow, and the giant arrow was pushed away from the giant crossbow by the bowstring, and then it was a scene that I just saw, Giant spear-like arrows flew out from behind the throne.
"I'm going to kill you, or I'll be a murderer." Yang Gang regretted his recklessness a little.
Shangguan Yaxiong continued: "So, tomb robbery is a delicate job, and you must be cautious every step of the way, otherwise it will become a frightening step." ”
"It's a pity that I can't find the glowing ball, so I can't tell what it is." I regret that I may be missing out on a real treasure.
"That can't be what the grave robbers are looking for, is it?" Yang Gang asked me.
I glanced at Yang Gang, who was also staring at me, remembering the picture of him just being quick, I paused, and then shook my head.
"What are they looking for?" Shangguan Yaxiong then asked me.
I thought about it and told them, "They are looking for a long-lost treasure, and no one can even tell where it is." ”
"And how can they be sure they can find the treasure they want here?" Yang Gang then asked me.
I thought about it and said to them: "He's wall knows, and in the end it will fall into the hands of Qin Shi Huang." ”
"He's wall, isn't it made into a jade seal?" Yang Gang asked me again.
I shook my head: "Who knows, everything that knows is already ancient, let's not talk about this, let's go to the secondary rooms on both sides to have a look." ”
The left and right rooms of the Han Palace, we chose to enter the left room, the ground is full of dust, the cloth sails are so rotten that they are scattered on the ground, so the original appearance of the ground is no longer clear, in this case, walking is like crossing the river by feeling the stones, and you have to be cautious every step of the way.
The door of the second room was also closed, and it didn't look very bad, but when I raised my hand and gently pushed it, the door immediately scattered on the ground, and when my feet stepped on it, it immediately turned into powder, which did not seem to be made of durable materials.
"There are a lot of things, and maybe valuable cultural relics." Although the windows on three sides here are almost non-functional, and the light is better than that of the main room, we are used to the light of the flashlight, and we still use the flashlight to watch the funeral goods displayed in the left room, under the cover of thick dust, we can see the general shape of the utensils, but we don't know what it is, what material, and many things, so Yang Gang said with a smile.
"There are so many things in this second room, there is still a secondary room in this Han Palace, I don't know how many are there, we missed the second room of the Qi Palace." Shangguan Yaxiong felt a little sorry for the Zhang brothers in the Qi Palace.
I took a look at the contents of the room, and judging from the outline, many of them were bronze, and some of them were broken wooden boxes, and most of them were unenriched, and were placed directly on the countertop or the floor.
"Bronze...... Or bronze...... "Yang Gang and Shangguan Yaxiong wiped off the dust and looked at many cultural relics, all of which were bronze, and most of them were bronze ritual vessels and wine vessels.
For those of us who went deep into the tomb with bags on our backs, most of the bronzes were considered large items and were not convenient to carry, so I just hoped to take a look, and I didn't plan to bring one or two bronzes, unless there were bronzes that could be held in one hand, such as the dagger worn on the corpse sitting on the throne of the Qi Palace.
I squatted on the ground beside a cow-shaped bronze and wiped the dust off the bronzes, the bronzes were beautiful, exquisitely cast, and vivid, a cow with its neck on its back, with stubby legs and a slightly bulging belly, and very little patina on the utensils.
"Do you know what this thing is?" Shangguan Yaxiong approached me and asked.
The bronze was named according to its purpose and shape, and I tapped the ox-shaped bronze with my knuckles, and the inside was empty, and I guessed that it was a wine vessel for wine, so I told Shangguan Yaxiong, "This should be called '觥', which is a wine vessel for wine." ”
"Wine vessels, could it be that there is a bar in there?" Shangguan Yaxiong joked.
I also smiled and went to remove the cover, but I couldn't open it, it seemed that the age was rusted to death, I tried again, and the result was still.
"I guess this can't be opened at all, it's not a wine vessel, it's just a model of a cow, and it's abstract." Shangguan Yaxiong continued to joke.
I glanced at her, obviously she was doubting my judgment, and even doubting my knowledge, I had to prove it to her once, I moved the ox-shaped bronze squirt, it was very heavy, and I shook it, and there was actually a liquid swaying sound from the squirt, I glared at Shangguan Yaxiong: "Did you hear it, there is liquid in it." ”
