On the way to the tomb of the king in the western suburbs, Lao Gu told us some legends about this tomb. It is said that Ran Min, the king of Wu Mourning, was killed in Liaoning after the defeat, and later the monarch of Qianyan posthumously named him the king of Wu Mourning, in fact, it was not because of respect for him, but because after Ran Min was killed in the curbing of the mountain, all the grass and trees around the mountain withered, and the locusts rose in a big way, and the weather was dry and rainless since May until December. The ancients were superstitious and thought that killing Ran Min provoked the wrath of the sky, so they pursued the worship, and on the day of the worship, it snowed heavily, which has to be said to be very magical.

As a national hero, Ran Min has a large number of followers both during his life and after his death, and even today, some people who know Ran Min's life and deeds also respect him. Ran Min's old department, there were two veterans who had been the captain of the touching gold, after the defeat of Ran Min, secretly paid attention to the whereabouts of Ran Tianwang, and tracked all the way from the Central Plains to Liaoning, at that time, the Xianbei nobles did not allow the people to worship Ran Min, and the place where Ran Min's body was buried was very strict, especially after the heavy snowfall, don't sleep with the people, even the Xianbei nobles believed that Ran Min was the person of destiny, so no one was allowed to approach the burial place.

The two veterans followed Ran Tianwang for half their lives, and they couldn't bear to let Ran Tianwang die in a foreign land, so they planned to use their own means to steal Ran Tianwang's bones and send his soul back to his hometown. The two men disguised themselves as woodcutters and set up a thatched hut nearby, and the two worked in shifts, one hunting and chopping wood in the mountains, and going to the city to exchange some silver to make ends meet, and the other to steal holes in the thatched hut day and night.

It took a full year for the two to take out the bones of Ran Tianwang through the robbery hole, and then use the fur accumulated from hunting for a year, pretend to be a fur dealer, and return to Ran Tianwang's hometown Neihuang, which is now the territory of Anyin City, the local people and craftsmen heard the news, secretly gathered together, and spontaneously built a mausoleum for this national hero in Chinese history.

"It is said that the tomb of King Ran is different from other large mausoleums. But all the mausoleums of princes and generals, because they are afraid of people robbing the tomb, so after the tomb is built, the craftsmen who make the tomb will basically suffocate to death in it to prevent the leakage of the mausoleum structure, for thousands of years, it has been the case, so the experienced craftsmen will leave a trap door in the tomb when building the tomb, in case of accidents. However, as far as I know, there is no trapdoor in the tomb of King Ran. "Lao Gu seems to be very familiar with that period of history, and told us all the way, and finally talked about the ancient tomb.

"Professor Gu, why are you so clear about these things, are these legends here? Why doesn't this tomb have a trapdoor? Jing'er tilted her head and asked Lao Gu with big beautiful eyes.

"Stinky girl, you all said that I was old." Lao Gu yawned, "The two veterans who stole the bones of Ran Tianwang back then, one of them is the ancestor of my family, these things are also stories that have been passed down from generation to generation in the family, of course I know, as for why there is no trapdoor in the tomb of Ran Tianwang, it is because this mausoleum was built by people at that time spontaneously for Ran Tianwang, no one supervised it, and no one would kill the craftsman, so naturally there was no need to leave a trap door, but ...... It is said that when the mausoleum was completed, more than 100 soldiers of the remnants of the Praetorian Guard under King Ran Tianwang volunteered to stay in the tomb and bury Ran Min Dadai. ”

"Voluntary burial? It can't be! Jing'er called out again, "How can anyone be so full that they will voluntarily give others a funeral?" ”

"Jing'er, this is what you don't understand, in ancient times, many of those loyal ministers and martyrs were willing to give martyrs to the heroes and emperors, at that time, there was still faith in people's hearts, unlike now......" The blind man who had not spoken all the time interjected.

"The Qin, Han, Wei and Jin dynasties never had ministers who committed suicide after the death of the country, and the suicide due to the loss of the country started from Ran Min's Wei State, and the martyrs at that time had ministers and soldiers, and the first heroic name of Ran Tianwang was not in vain." Lao Gu sighed, pointed to the intersection in front of him and said, "Turn right here." "According to Lao Gu's command, I drove the car into a ravine.

"Okay, get out of the car, the road ahead, you can't rely on the car." The car stopped at the end of the road, and Lao Gu was the first to jump out of the car, take out the big backpack that belonged to him from the trunk, and carry it on his back. The three of us also took out our respective backpacks, speaking of which, my backpack was the largest, no problem, except for carrying some things that I needed to go to the grave, and I also had some guys in my backpack that were specially designed to deal with demons and monsters, including my Ingram M10 submachine gun.

After following Lao Gu in the ravine for a while, Lao Gu led us to the mouth of a cave. The cave is not deep, only a few meters in the cave, there is a broken stone tablet, I took a closer look, the stone tablet is clearly written "Wei Wu XX King" and other words.

"That's what Professor Chan said? I said, since I found it, why didn't there be any protection measures here, and even this stele was thrown here like this? It's a crime! Jing'er, an archaeologist as the target, was simply indignant when he saw this way of dealing with it.

"Hehe, no way, this is the meaning of the above, don't let publicity, don't let publicity, if you find it, you just don't find it, no matter what it is, it's put in place, just think that someone knows." Lao Gu shrugged his shoulders helplessly, "There were too many people killed by Ran Tianwang back then, and I was afraid that excavating his tomb and setting up a monument for him would cause dissatisfaction among some people." ”

"Disgusting." The blind man spat on the stone wall on one side.

"Who's to say it isn't." Lao Gu still showed great helplessness, but what he said next was very solemn, "Okay, don't talk about these unhappy things, according to the news left by my ancestors, as well as Lao Chen's exploration, the tomb of Ran Tianwang is here, he asked me to take you in, in addition to helping you guide the way, there is also a meaning that I want to supervise you, I will say ugly things in front, the tomb of Ran Tianwang, we can only enter, not steal, Lao Chen said that you need something called Tianwang Ling, and I don't know if there is anything in it, If there is, you can only take out the Heavenly King's Order, and you are not allowed to bring out other things, even if it is a brick or a stone, otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind to you. If there is no Ran Tianwang, our Han people in the north are dead, the existence of this tomb, in fact, some of the big tomb robber families around have heard of it, but there is also a way to steal, although there is no agreement, but no one has ever hit the idea of the tomb of Ran Tianwang. ”

"Old Gu, don't worry, you are not the only one who admires Ran Tianwang, and ......" My hand touched the small porcelain vase on my chest, and the hook halberd immediately appeared in my hand. If I wantonly destroy the tomb of the Ran Heavenly King, I'm afraid even it won't forgive me. ”

"This is ......" Lao Gu saw the hook halberd in my hand that emitted a faint white light, stretched out his hand, and wanted to take it to see, I didn't stop it, just turned the hook upside down, stuck it in the ground, and then made a gesture of please. However, the halberd left my hand, and the white light immediately dissipated.

"This, this is ...... Is this the Celestial Halberd? Lao Gu stroked the seemingly ordinary hook halberd in disbelief, "That's right, that's right, it must be the Heavenly King's halberd, this is exactly the same as the hook halberd in the hand of Ran Tianwang on the painting handed down from my family!" Lao Gu said, very excitedly took out a very old cloth from his coat pocket, unfolded it to show us, only to see that the cloth was painted with a mighty general riding a red dragon horse, a double-edged spear in his left hand, and a hook halberd in his right hand, which was the mighty general I saw when I got the hook halberd.

"I said Lao Gu, this thing of yours is also an antiquity, why do you still carry it with you." The blind man didn't have the same empathy as me and Lao Gu, but he just felt that it was very strange for Lao Gu to carry such an ancient painting with him.

"This is what you don't understand, doing our business, more or less will bring some evil spirits on the body, don't the novels say that we dig graves, to bring a pangolin claw made of gold talismans, in fact, this thing is a meaning to ward off evil spirits, each family is different, our family has eaten inverted rice for generations, simply take this portrait of Ran Tianwang as a talisman. In order to protect our Han people, Ran Tianwang has killed countless people, and he is very murderous, and ordinary demons and monsters dare not be presumptuous in front of the portrait of the king of heaven. In fact, the statues of King Ran are everywhere, and they are famous. It's just that no one knows about it now. ”

"Huh? Everywhere? "This sentence blindfolded me, I read those materials before, Ran Min's affairs are all secret, and when are they everywhere.

Lao Gu heard this, one hand in front of the chest made a lifting posture, "the world knows that the king of Tota Li Jing, is the incarnation of the Tang Dynasty general Li Jing, but the folk worship of the king of Tota, as early as the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, there are rumors, because of the Hu people's fear of Ran Tianwang, the people do not dare to openly build a temple for Ran Tianwang, because there is a proverb that says, 'Li who destroys Hu', the people will entrust to pay tribute to Li Tianwang to build a temple for Ran Min, and the name 'Jing' is taken from the meaning of stability and peace. ”

Lao Gu's words made the blind man roll his eyes and shout, "I don't read much, don't lie to me." And I smiled helplessly, whether the legend of King Tota is true or not, at least, it carries the sorrow of some people. To be honest, the more I learned about this hero, the more ashamed I felt. Was that my past life? If that was my past life, am I living too mediocre in this life? Now, I have to come to his tomb to pick up things.

"Forget it, Lao Gu, don't talk about this, let's start the whole thing, start early, end it early, don't disturb the heroic spirits of the ancestors for too long." Retracting the hook halberd and shaking the sapper shovel in his hand, it was time to open the halberd.
