Chapter 926: Peerless Treasure "Book of Qi Wang Yi"
Near the magic capital, by the sea, in a renovated dock, the excavation of "Ancient Porcelain No. 1", which is called China's "first shipwreck" by historians, is in full swing.
The damage to the Ancient Porcelain No. 1 was so badly that the entire hull of the ship was broken into several pieces, which were packed in a huge square metal box and "dug out" directly from the bottom of the sea.
Now, they're digging the middle of the hull, the entire hull, including the metal box, which has been immersed in a pool filled with seawater.
The entire dock is enclosed in glass, and the light is very soft, so as not to cause damage to the wreck.
On the shipwreck, a layer of sediment has been washed away, and the archaeologists used an aluminum alloy welded up a one-meter-square frame embedded in the sediment, and then many archaeologists drilled into the exploration square, squatted between the narrow square inches, and brushed off the layers of soil little by little with a small brush......
Just like that, piece by piece, layer by layer, little by little to excavate.
Archaeology is really a very youthful work.
If nothing else, the excavation of such a ship may take ten years or more.
And, God knows what he'll find down there.
If you think about it carefully, it will take almost hundreds of years from the discovery of Ancient Porcelain No. 1, to its salvage, and then to its complete excavation.
All that is done is to discover the past.
It's no wonder that Gu Xiaobai is reluctant to study history.
Who has the time to spend on a broken ship?
At that time, time machines might have been invented!
Moreover, this ship was actually one of the three ships of the time.
Before the ship sank, the crew had tried their best to salvage the materials transported on the ship, so what was left in the cabin, except for some of the goods that had not been salvaged in time, was only some utensils and tools used by the crew.
But for Zou Lao, he is already satisfied.
It can even be said that this ship brought him a lot of surprises, and many views that had been debated for a long time were clearly determined before the sinking of this ship.
This is a major discovery in the field of archaeology, history.
And the underground palace found under Dongyuan University before, it can be said that they complement each other, and the north and south return together.
What made Zou Lao even more excited was that they found some scattered jade plates on the boat, and there were words on the jade plates.
At first they thought it was just an isolated jade tablet, but then they found out more.
The moment he realized that on this set of jade plates, what was recorded was complete, four words appeared in Zou Lao's mind - priceless!
After several days of almost sleepless excavations, they finally found a broken box, as well as dozens of broken jade tablets contained in the box.
The text on it was transcribed and rubbed, and the entire archaeological community was in a boil.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, two thousand six or seven hundred years ago, at least a few thousand words of articles!
This is absolutely priceless!
Whether it is the study of ancient documents or other aspects, this can be called a "major discovery".
Almost the entire archaeological and historical circles are curious about what is written on this set of jade plates!
And Zou Lao even recruited one of his disciples, Zheng Jianguo, to conduct the research of this jade version.
The underground palace under Dongyuan University was enough to send one of his disciples to the Yangtze River Scholar, and this set of jade plates was enough to make another of his disciples rise to the top.
And Zou Lao himself also took the photocopy of the rubbing and studied it silently.
"The ninth day of the first month: the king is angry when he enters, and he is happy when he comes out, so the people are prosperous when he is happy, and the people are declining when he is angry, and the rule of the husband's family and country is ......"
"The tenth day of the first month: Wang is anxious, entering the room, like thunder in an instant, like rain ......"
"Twelve: ......"
Translating the golden text, Zou Lao looked at the words he had translated, and suddenly had a terrible thought in his heart.
Don't......
Is this a divination book?
This format is really similar to the Book of Changes.
"Teacher, teacher!" Zheng Jianguo, a disciple of Zou Lao, pushed the door in and said, "Is this ...... Could it be ......?"
Both people can see the four words in each other's eyes.
Priceless!
This is not only priceless, this is something that money can't even buy!
It may be an extremely important piece of the puzzle in the history of ancient Chinese civilization, and it is the oldest document that has been handed down from ancient times to the present without being copied, annotated, or modified by people in the middle!
Its cultural and archaeological value is immeasurable!
Moreover, all the objects described in this are "kings".
Who is this "king"?
Zou Lao and others rearranged and pieced together the scattered jade plates, and finally found a name.
"Xiaobai"!
Qi Huan Gong Xiaobai!
This is a book that describes the King of Qi and records a certain act of the King of Qi!
Perhaps, it is the record of King Qi seeking revelation from Wu Zhu every time and conducting divination......
And this also means that this is not only a hexagram book, but also a history book, a lost classic!
Let mankind get a glimpse of the bits and pieces of 2,700 years ago through this article!
This huge discovery instantly caused a major earthquake in the domestic historical circles and in the world!
After all, China is the only remaining ancient civilization in the world, and Chinese history is basically the history of East Asia, and most of the history of Asia.
Many experts flew in from all over the world to hold a high-level meeting in the magic capital, and at this meeting, everyone gave the book a name "The Book of Qi Wang Yi".
Because most people think that this book should be some kind of book of divination.
However, after research, they also had to admit that these jade plates were actually incomplete.
There should be more than half or more of the content, I don't know where it is, quietly waiting for the light of day, or it has long disappeared in the long river of time.
Many people hope that in the "Ancient Porcelain No. 1", more jade plates will be found, if this set of jade plates can be collected...... I'm afraid it's enough to make the whole cultural world earthquake!
For a time, because of the discovery of the Book of Qi Wangyi, the excavation team of "Ancient Porcelain No. 1" got more funds, found more scholars and students, and began to excavate faster.
Even in society, there is a wave of archaeology.
At the same time, in Southeast Asia, in the Dragon Palace on the sea, Gu Xiaobai opened a stone box, took out a jade plate from it, and took a look.
Then he was furious in an instant: "Bai Tian, Zhongtu !!!!!!"
......
Two thousand seven hundred years ago, Bai Tian and Zhong Tu squatted outside the door of King Qi's study.
Zhongtu held a brush in his hand and a bamboo board in his hand, on which many things had been written.
"What are you writing about?" Bai Tian leaned over curiously, but Zhongtu didn't show it to him.
At this moment, Gu Xiaobai frowned and pushed the door out, hurriedly went straight to the toilet next to him, and after a while, changed his clothes, and went back to the study with all directions.
Zhong Rabbit instigated the brush that had been dried, instigated himself into an octopus mouth, and wrote on the bamboo board: "The ninth day of the first month: the king is angry when he enters, and he is happy when he comes out, so the people are prosperous when the king is happy, and the king is angry and the people are declining, and the rule of the husband's family and country is just ......."
Next to him, Shirata stretched his neck and laughed as he watched.
"Do you understand what you mean?"
"I don't understand, anyway, that's what Childe asked me to memorize. Zhongtu said.
"This is stable, let the craftsman carve it out later, it must be valuable!" Bai Tian clenched his fist.
Zhong Rabbit grinned at the black octopus mouth and smiled.
Thousands of years later, those researchers never dreamed that the "Book of King Yi of Qi", which they regarded as a treasure, should actually be renamed "The Book of King Qi Gengshu", but they were just two idle guys, secretly poking and poking to record a very spoof history......
And then I fed I don't know how many.
