Chapter 850 Tomb Raiders
When Yang Jian here heard Sun Zhanting say that he had participated in the excavation of King Wu's tomb, his eyes suddenly changed and became more enthusiastic.
"Mr. Sun, come in first, the things here are quite special, I will tell you slowly."
Yang Jian led the two of them to the office on the first floor, made a pot of tea, and then sat down and began to explain.
"Actually, the excavation of King Wu's tomb was completed more than ten years ago, and all the excavated cultural relics have been properly protected."
"According to common sense, this place will be handed over to the security guards of the local jurisdiction for management, but something happened three years ago, which made the Archaeological Institute decide to let me station here, and also built a wall."
Hearing what Yang Jian said, Sun Zhanting and Zhao Gang looked at each other, and they both realized that what Yang Jian said three years ago was probably not trivial.
"What happened?" Sun Zhanting asked.
"Someone is robbing the tomb!" Yang Jian said.
"Someone robbed the tomb?" Sun Zhanting frowned.
In fact, not only Sun Zhanting, but even Zhao Gang were surprised that someone came to rob a tomb that had been excavated by the authorities for more than ten years?
Was this man kicked in the head by a donkey, or was he in the water?
First of all, the previous cultural relics or other funerary objects in the tomb must have been cleaned up. Even if there are omissions, they will not be too valuable. In addition, tomb robbery is not a small crime, especially if it is the tomb of King Wu. large tomb.
This kind of thankless thing, and grasping the thing that may have to be sent in for the rest of your life, would anyone do it?
Anyone with a bit of common sense probably wouldn't do it, but now Yang Jian's words have become a fact.
"That's right, but we built the wall not because of the tomb robbery itself, but because of the consequences of the tomb robbery."
When Yang Jian said this, both Sun Zhanting and Zhao Gang felt a little confused.
"Consequences? What consequences? Hasn't King Wu's tomb been excavated a long time ago? Could it be that there is still something that hasn't been discovered?" Zhao Gang looked puzzled.
"You're right. In fact, before the tomb robbery, we always believed that the tomb of King Wu had been excavated, but since the tomb robbery happened, we found a secret room in the tomb of King Wu..."
"Secret room?" Sun Zhanting frowned, a little unwilling to believe it, because he also participated in the previous excavation operation, and no secret room was found at that time.
"Yes, the thing is like this..."
Then Yang Jian briefly introduced the matter to the two of them. It was an autumn morning. The security guard on routine patrol found many wheel marks on the side of King Wu's tomb. Suddenly dumbfounded.
A lot of new soil appeared on the scene. It was obvious that someone had descended into the tomb, and then the security guards called the archaeological team. At that time, Yang Jian happened to be an intern in the Western Regions archaeological team, and he was lucky enough to go down into the tomb with him.
Following the footprints of the tomb robbers, a group of people came to the burial pit of the tomb, which is located to the southwest of the main tomb. When they went in, they all stared wide-eyed.
"Guess what we saw?" Yang Jian stopped here on purpose.
"Did you find the secret room? Didn't you say that before?" Zhao Gang rolled his eyes, this researcher Yang is a bit silly and cute.
"Oh, yes, look at my memory, we discovered that there is a small secret room in the east of the burial pit, that is, on the side close to the main tomb, and there is a stone tablet in the secret room."
"Stone tablet?" Zhao Gang originally thought it was a cultural relic or something else, but he didn't know it was a stone tablet.
"Yes, it is a stone tablet, but on the stone tablet is a type of writing that has never been seen before. It is somewhat similar to hieroglyphics, but after a comparison, it was found that it was not at all." Yang Jian spread his hands.
"However, at that time, the leaders all felt that this stele was very important. They originally wanted to take it down and take it back to the Provincial Museum for study, but after trying it, they couldn't take it down at all."
"Can't you take it off? Why can't you take it off?" Sun Zhanting asked immediately.
"The situation is very special, and I can't explain it clearly. I can take you down to have a look later, and it happens that you, Mr. Sun, were also a part of the research back then. Maybe you have a way." Yang Jian nodded, "But now I have some questions I want to ask you, or this Mr. Zhao."
Yang Jian's questions were not very difficult. They were all about the cultural relics excavated from King Wu's tomb. Zhao Gang was good at these things, and through the books on these cultural relics, a woman's name gradually appeared in sight.
Zheng's family name, courtesy name Shuqing, is a conclusion drawn after studying several women's accessories unearthed from King Wu's tomb.
This discovery may not be a big surprise to ordinary people, but for those who excavate the tomb of King Wu or the personal history of King Wu of Goryeo, this discovery is simply a depth bomb.
The reason for saying this is that everyone believed that King Wu came to the border of the Central Plains because of the edict of Gaoli Taizu Wang Jian, and he wanted to find the monk.
But King Wu fell in love halfway, and judging from the women's jewelry left behind by King Wu, Wang Yan did not get this woman named Zheng Shuqing.
There is also a possibility, that is, King Wu dereliction of duty. He was probably delayed in work by love, and then failed to find the monk within the limited time, which finally led to the death of Taizu.
If this is confirmed, then the history of the Goryeo Dynasty will have to be rewritten. This is no small matter...
"This is a bit interesting. We didn't care about it at that time. It seems that you are also paying attention to it. You will be afraid of future generations."
After listening to what Yang Jian said, Sun Zhanting showed a gratified smile on his face. At that time, their main purpose was to fight against tomb robbers and protect cultural relics, while academic research was delayed.
"Thank you, senior, for your praise, but as you said, this Mr. Zhao is even more powerful than I imagined. The problem that I have checked a lot of information but can't be solved can be easily solved in his opinion. Maybe the piece in the tomb He can still understand the writing on the stele."
After Zhao Gang's performance just now, Yang Jian now admires the young man in front of him who is about ten years younger than him.
Now in this world, the most fearful thing is the kind of young but knowledgeable and capable people who are better than themselves in all aspects.
Faced with this kind of person, he can only accept it helplessly, but Yang Jian doesn't think so. He is different from others since he was a child. catch-up target.
