If you dig up a corpse at the beginning, the system will be awakened directly.

In fact, even Director Luo did not expect that Guan He would come to help him this time because of his old friendship. Twenty percent of the funerary objects was not a lot, and the distribution decision was on his own side. Giving him some was of no value. In fact, the other party couldn't say anything about the funeral objects.

Of course, although Director Luo is usually a bit scheming, Director He is his old classmate after all, so there is still friendship.

Furthermore, if the merger of the two museums really happens later, then they will be like grasshoppers tied to a rope. In this case, it is not surprising that the other party is willing to help.

With the help of more than [-] people, it only took them half an hour to move all the funerary objects in the tomb onto the truck that was called in advance. They even took away the coffin, leaving only An empty tomb.

Of course, these funerary objects are only complete funerary objects that have been temporarily discovered in the tomb. Other broken funerary objects and other tunnels have not yet been excavated. No one knows whether there is anything else buried underneath.

The most important thing is that they have not yet determined the specific identity of the owner of the tomb. The princes and kings of Chu State passed it down from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

In the more than 63 years of history, there have been a total of 26 monarchs and [-] kings. It is still very difficult to find the owner of the tomb among them.

Su Hao was looking at the tomb information that just appeared, with a deep expression on his face.

【Ancient Tombs】

[Era: Warring States Period]

[Name: Xiong Shang]

[Tomb type: Lord-style tomb]

[Explanation: This type of burial is the type of burial used by monarchs and princes during the Warring States Period. The mausoleum is very large, with earth seals on top and steps below. There are many tombs. Feng shui treasures are chosen for underground burials. Generally, the mausoleum is the core, and terracotta warriors and horses are buried with military formations. , surrounded by sacrificial pits, forming a complete large-scale cemetery]

"Xiong Shang? Is there anyone with this name in history?" Su Hao muttered to himself and quickly began to search for historical information about this name in his mind.

Soon, the image of a Chu monarch appeared in his memory, and the name of this Chu monarch was Xiong Shang.

He was an accomplished king of Chu during the Warring States Period. During his reign, he inherited King Xuan of Chu's cause of revitalizing the Chu State, defeated the Qi army in Xuzhou, and built a city in Jinling (today's Nanjing), thereby expanding the power of the Chu State to the Jianghuai region. During this period, Chu State's economy and military developed rapidly.

But Su Hao will know that he is not the above deeds, but because he is Mi Yue's father.

Mi Yue is much more famous than her father, King Chu Wei. As the biological mother of King Qin Zhaoxiang, and the various deeds that happened to her, it is also because she is the first person in Chinese history to be called the "Queen Mother" people and have received widespread attention.

However, apart from the fact that he is Mi Yue's father, King Wei of Chu actually fulfilled his responsibilities as the king of Chu very well. He was thirsty for talents and actively governed the country. As for guest officials, he successively hired Taoist Zhuangzi and Mohist Tian Jiu, hoping that they could help him govern the country, but unfortunately they all ended in failure.

At home, he formulated laws and sought wise ministers who "do not seek advice from nobles, nor encourage them for salary, but are concerned about the country." Under his governance, Chu State prospered.

And in terms of military affairs, as of the period of King Chu Wei, the Chu State had already had an established cavalry force, known as "cavalry of ten thousand horses." This was also the first complete cavalry unit to appear in Chinese history, and it also played a great role in subsequent wars. role.

In the Battle of Xuzhou, King Wei of Chu defeated Qi. After this battle, "Ying became strong and joined all the princes in the world", and Chu's international status was greatly improved.

However, in the Battle of Xingshan, King Wei of Chu mishandled the situation and not only suffered a defeat, but also allowed Qin to obtain the land west of Hexi.

This was also the beginning of the rise of the Qin State. It is not an exaggeration to say that he pushed the wave of Qin State's unification behind the scenes. Of course, this is just a funny statement.

But now that he knows whose tomb this is, Su Hao's current task is to find relevant evidence in this regard and tell Director Luo the news. After all, the other party won't believe it if he tells it directly, so it's better to start with other aspects first. , confirm a rough range.

After cleaning the coffin chamber, the archaeologists also began to clean the floor tiles underneath and the surrounding tomb walls, trying to find any tomb chambers or burial pits that might be hidden around them.

After more than two thousand years of baptism, this ancient tomb can be said to be very complete compared to other ancient tombs from the Warring States Period. Not only did the tomb and coffin chambers not collapse, but even the stone steps were not much worn. The product has been in a closed space for two thousand years and has not suffered much damage.

As the mausoleum of a monarch, and it is also a tomb with the title of vassal king, most of the time the tombs are connected together. That is to say, there is very likely to be the tomb of another monarch next to the tomb of a monarch, or even in the tomb. Find ancient tombs that are buried together, such as the tomb of the queen.

Unfortunately, the ancient tomb in front of them is not a so-called joint burial tomb, and there are no tombs around it. After cleaning up the surrounding sand, archaeological experts determined that this is a separate ancient tomb at the level of princes and kings.

Of course, Su Hao had known this for a long time. Where exactly King Chu Wei was buried was still an unsolved mystery in history until yesterday. But now this mystery has been solved resolutely. If they were not buried separately, His tomb should be discovered in [-] with the excavation of the tombs of the kings of Chu.

"Su Hao, which Chu prince's tomb do you think this is? Can you tell?"

Director Luo also remembered that Su Hao had immediately figured out the origin of Yubi City before, and wanted to see if Su Hao knew who the owner of this tomb was.

But ancient tombs are different from ancient cities. Ancient cities can make casual inferences, but not tombs. Solid evidence is needed to confirm the true owner of the ancient tombs.

"The 23 kings of Chu Kingdom, check one by one to see which tombs have not been dug out. This should help us find out who the owner of the tomb is faster." Su Hao also came up with a solution in a hurry. Only in this way can the number of investigations be reduced as much as possible.

"Zhao Guangyi, come here!"

"coming!"

Zhao Guangyi was like a tool man at this time, not an expert at all. He simply moved wherever there was a need. After hearing Director Luo's shout, he immediately walked towards Su Hao.

He knew that Director Luo calling him by his full name must have something he needed to do.

"Old Zhao, please check, how many tombs of Chu kings have been excavated?"

"No need to check, just one." Zhao Guangyi gave the answer directly without even taking out his cell phone.

"I just read the records about the tombs of the kings of Chu two days ago. Only the tomb site of King Chu You is the only tomb of a king of Chu that has been discovered and confirmed so far. Apart from this, no other tombs of kings of Chu have been discovered. The one excavated now can barely be regarded as the second one!"

"What?" Curator Luo was dumbfounded. He originally wanted to rule it out using the elimination method, but now he has only eliminated one monarch. There are still [-] other monarchs whose tombs have not been discovered. This would be quite difficult to confirm. Because of the trouble, I can only slowly find the answer by studying the funerary objects.

Of course, with so many tombs across the country, it is not possible to find the real owner of every tomb. Many unnamed tombs can only be named by the official position of the tomb owner during his lifetime, unless objects that can prove the identity are found in the tomb.

For example, Liu He, Marquis of Haihun, whose tomb was truly identified because a seal with his name was found in the coffin.

Therefore, if you want to confirm the owner of the tomb, you must open a museum and take out the personal burial objects inside to study. Maybe you can find information about the owner of the tomb.

"What should we do now?"

"We can only open the museum and see if there is anything in it that can prove the owner of the tomb."

"we can only do this."

At this time, all the burial objects in Chu's tombs had been removed, and the archaeologists left behind were cleaning the remains of those buried in the tombs. Most of these burials were buried alive, so their postures were quite weird. , archaeologists must restore this posture to the wooden board and then transport it out of the tomb.

This is also to be able to study how these burials died in the future, but one thing is certain, these burials were all extremely miserable, and some had their limbs and bones broken. It was obvious that they suffered inhuman torture during their lifetime.

They will experience such torture, and only the concubines of the king during his lifetime, the so-called concubines, will be treated. Most of them are not willing to bury the king with him, and most of them will choose to run away.

The punishment for escaping was unbearable for them. If they were caught, these concubines would have their hands and feet broken and thrown directly into ancient tombs for burial.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand. After all, the monarch's women are not to be touched. If the monarch dies, these concubines can naturally only be used as burial objects. Unless they become queens, even noble concubines will not escape death.

In addition, some unrelated people will also be arrested and buried with them. This era can really be called the most dangerous dynasty.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, living burials were very popular among the princes and kings. When King Wu's daughter passed away, King Wu felt guilty for his daughter, so he held his daughter's funeral in a very grand manner.

But such a grand event will definitely attract people to watch. On the day of the funeral, the men and women on the street followed the funeral procession to the cemetery of King Wu’s daughter. King Wu looked at the crowd in front of him and was furious, so he ordered the crowd to All the people were imprisoned in the tomb to bury their daughter with her.

No one knows how many people were temporarily captured and buried with them, but there were at least hundreds. With such indifference to the lives of the people, the subsequent demise of the Wu Kingdom seemed very reasonable.

It can be seen from this example that the burial system of this era is really incomprehensible to modern people. The ancient kings were the only ones. Almost no one objected to what they said. Naturally, even if they thought it was right, it would not matter if it was wrong. If people dare to refute, they can only go in the wrong direction.

"Su Hao, if you are in a hurry, you can leave first. I will give you extra overtime pay today!"

Seeing Su Hao's melancholy expression next to him, Director Luo thought that this guy was worried about missing the appointment ceremony in the afternoon, so he spoke to him.

"Ah, no, it's only eleven o'clock now. There's no rush." ​​Su Hao shook his head and said that he wasn't worried because of this matter. After all, he still had time to go back and take a shower. There was no rush at all. of.

"What's the reason?" Director Luo was puzzled. He had never seen such an expression on Su Hao's face before.

"I just think that the burial system in ancient times is too cruel. When the monarch dies, the concubines also have to be buried with him. If I go there, it is an inhumane system." Su Hao sighed and said what he was thinking. i come out.

"How could the ancient kings be willing to let others get their hands on their women?" Director Luo looked helpless: "This is something that can't be helped. At that time, people's vision was not high, and they didn't know that life is equal. If Even if I knew, I wouldn't do such a cruel thing."

"It's true." Zhao Guangyi also walked up to Director Luo at this time, handed over the tablet and said: "I just checked, there are a total of fifteen skeletons with injuries, three of them suffered fatal injuries, long before they were buried alive He already died a violent death.”

"It's just too cruel."

But even if Su Hao thinks so, this is what happened two thousand years ago after all, and they can't change anything. Moreover, this kind of thing happened often in ancient times. In modern times, such deeds have been eliminated. Naturally, it is not suitable to continue to investigate. Go down.

"It's good to get used to it. If you work in this industry, you won't feel it after seeing these things too much. So are you going back with us now, or are you just running away? I think you won't miss the opportunity to open the coffin. After all, it is extremely difficult. We met, we haven’t opened the library a few times a year before.”

"Don't talk about you, I'm looking forward to it. After all, this is the tomb of King Chu. We have dug out only one tomb of King Chu for sure. This King Chu coffin has never been experienced on site. It is not easy to have such an opportunity. , naturally can’t miss it!”

At this time, Director He also came out. After hearing the conversation between the two, he quickly expressed his opinion. You must know that although he is the director of a provincial museum and the director of the Cultural Relics Bureau, the tomb of King Chu appeared last time. In another province, it is normal for him to have never seen it.

"Then let me go and have a look. I'm not in a hurry to go to school anyway." Su Hao was also persuaded by the two of them. To be honest, being able to see the opening process of King Chu's coffin up close was an unprecedented experience for him. Something not tried.

The most important thing is that this will definitely bring him explosive traffic. His number of fans is still over [-] million away from [-] million, so he must seize this opportunity!
