Chapter 3 Great Archaeological Discoveries

September 15, 654 in the Ming calendar.

Wang Yue turned on the live broadcast again.

She has a father who is the deputy director of the National Museum, and has been fascinated by history since she was a child.

Although she is still in graduate school, she has begun to participate in archaeological work, and she hopes that through live broadcasts, netizens can understand the charm of history and reduce the slander and misunderstanding of archaeological work.

"Hello everyone."

"I am Yueyue who loves archaeology."

"We're inside Oxheart Mountain."

"The view around is so beautiful."

"We will look for ancient tombs along the river where artifacts have been found."

"This time, Professor Tang personally led the team, I believe that we will find out soon, please be patient and wish us good luck!"

“……”

Wang Yue hasn't finished yet.

Suddenly, the sky shook.

"Not good!"

"It's an earthquake!"

"Stay safe, everyone!"

This team of more than 20 people, with guides who are familiar with mountain roads and experienced geological experts, soon led everyone to a relatively safe open place to avoid danger.

Wang Yue was frightened for the first time when she encountered this situation, and the movement lasted for half an hour before it began to weaken, and some netizens had already called the police, so she hurriedly appeased.

"Don't worry!"

"It's inevitable that you'll encounter special situations in the wild."

"We have a professional team that is enough to deal with all kinds of accidents."

"Professor Tang, there are many potential safety hazards after the earthquake, and it may be dangerous to continue to explore. ”

Professor Tang Biqing is a spirited old man, although he is over 60 years old, but his body is very tough, he is a leader in the domestic archaeological field, and he is also the commander-in-chief of this archaeological operation.

He nodded and said, "Safety first, we can only pause first." ”

At this time, a sturdy, dark-faced, inch-headed young man ran over, dancing with a red face.

"Professor!"

"A major discovery!"

"We're going to find something amazing!"

Li Qiang is a doctoral student who has been with Professor Tang for two years, and he is hard-working, taciturn, and very steady, and has never been so out of shape as he is now.

Wang Yue asked curiously, "Senior brother, what did you find?" ”

"I can't tell, just look at it!"

The group had to move forward for another ten minutes, and a small hill appeared in front of them, because the earthquake caused a landslide nearby, exposing a black building buried under the hill to the air.

"It's ......"

The hill bag should be a mound of sealed soil.

There is a very large tomb buried in it.

When Professor Tang saw the ancient and mysterious reliefs, the different expressions, and lifelike Buddha statues, his breath was short, and his eyes were filled with tears, and he realized that he had encountered the most important discovery in his life.

The audience in the live broadcast room was stunned.

"it!"

"This is the tomb?"

"Are you sure this is the tomb?"

"It looks like a temple no matter how you look at it!"

"Awesome! Book tomorrow's national headlines! ”

“……”

Three hours later.

Two helicopters landed on Niuxin Mountain.

Professor Tang's team is suspected of finding a large imperial tomb, which is completely different from any known imperial tomb, and is definitely the most significant discovery in the archaeological history in recent decades.

"Professor Tang!"

"How's it going?"

Director Zhang walked into the temporary command center with six old professors in a hurry, and couldn't wait to learn about the situation from Professor Tang, who sent the prepared materials to everyone and introduced them.

"We've completed our initial survey!"

"The style of this tomb is completely different from the Central Plains tombs."

"It is trapezoidal, symmetrical on all sides, with a total of 9 floors, a height of about 48.5 meters, a side length of about 218 meters, covering an area of more than 47,000 square meters, and the entire tomb is a stone structure, all made of black volcanic rock."

Everyone gasped.

Exchange photos with each other and be amazed.

"Although the area cannot be compared with the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang."

"But it's definitely big in the Imperial Mausoleum."

"The most incredible thing is that the entire stone tomb is made of black volcanic stone, and there is no such stone production nearby, so it must have been transported from other places with huge manpower and material resources."

unimaginable!

Subverting cognition!

The style of the tombs varies greatly from era to era.

When the society was stable in the Han Dynasty, funerals were solemn and thick burials were popular.

The situation in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties was turbulent, human life was like grass, and thin burials were very popular.

Such a large stone tomb, even if it is placed in the feudal dynasty during the prosperous period, is also a super project that is extremely laborious and costly, and it cannot be completed in a few decades, not to mention the period of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties with frequent regime changes?

"Judging from the photos taken so far, the stone tomb is expanding from top to bottom, the outer walls are covered with reliefs and scriptures, there are stone wall Buddha shrines every few meters, and it is expected that there will be six or seven hundred stone statues of sitting Buddha."

Professor Tang continued: "The content of these Buddha statues and reliefs outside the stone tomb alone exceeds that of the four major grottoes, which has huge academic value, enough for many scholars to study for most of their lives!" ”

"Incredible!"

"What a miracle!"

"It's the pyramid of the East!"

"This discovery is enough to make a sensation in the world!"

Director Zhang Donghai was shocked and puzzled: "Although statues were prevalent in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and the famous four major grottoes are from this period, there has never been a precedent for carving so many Buddha statues on the tombs. ”

Professor Sun Lao said: "Yes, it is not so much a tomb as a big pagoda in South Asia and Southeast Asia. ”

Professor Li nodded: "Hey, by what you said, I suddenly found that this stone tomb is six or seven percent similar to Borobudur in Indonesia regardless of its appearance or architectural style!" ”

"Indeed."

"I've studied tombs all my life."

"I've never seen a tomb like this."

"Such a large-scale tomb, the manpower and material resources used are extremely huge, it can definitely be called a super project, why hasn't it left a little record in the history books? This simply doesn't make sense! ”

Mysterious!

It's so mysterious!

The thirst for knowledge is burning!

At the same time, they rushed to the point where they were deeply concerned, and the discovery of fragments of cultural relics downstream by the villagers indicated that the tomb had probably been severely damaged, and that the earthquake had exacerbated the situation by directly exposing it to the air.

No one knows how many precious artifacts there are in this tomb.

And these things that have been sealed underground for more than a thousand years, once they encounter air or are soaked in water, the probability of being destroyed is very high, which will cause a major loss to Chinese civilization!

Rescue excavations are urgent!

Xiao Yu has been watching the live broadcast, but he didn't go through the live broadcast room, but used the Book of Creation to observe everything directly from the perspective of God, but sitting at home is no different from being there in person, this feeling of manipulating everything behind the scenes is really not bad.

[Luck +1!] 】

[Luck +1!] 】

【……】

The mysterious tomb has been on the hot search and news one after another, and it is rapidly fermenting and causing a sensation, so there has been some luck feedback.

Xiao Yu noticed that near Ran Yu's tomb, there were several large burial pits.

After Ran Min became emperor, he only lived for two years, in order to prevent Ran Yu's exploits from being erased in later generations, so he seized the time to renovate Ran Yu's tomb, hid the historical truth in the depths of the tomb, and buried 100,000 Hu people nearby for Ran Yu's burial.

Seventeen hundred years ago.

The hero is finally going to be exposed!

Xiao Yu decided to continue to observe behind the scenes.

With the Book of Creation, he can secretly guide the judgment of the archaeologists and team leaders, so that they can excavate the mausoleum faster, and at the same time, he can also create some visions to raise the topic and cause a greater sensation.

This time the layout is good.

The return should be a foregone conclusion.

I hope to make as much luck as possible so that I can move on to the next step of the layout.
