I dig ancient tombs for the country

We all looked carefully at the painting in front of us.It depicts a young and beautiful woman in a red wedding dress sitting on the table, followed by many court ladies and eunuchs.A middle-aged man with red hair and blue eyes was striding towards the car.

"Isn't this a picture of a marriage?" The members of the archaeological team pointed to the picture and said.

Professor Sun smiled slightly: "You can see that the bride is wearing a Han costume, which means she is Han. Look at the middle-aged man, he looks dignified, with loose hair and blue eyes, and he is wearing nomadic costumes."

"Oh." Everyone nodded. It seemed that Jiang was still old and hot. There are so many of us, and Professor Sun's observation is not as detailed. So, who are they?

"This is Princess Jiangdu of the Han Dynasty who married Lie Jiaomi, the monarch of Wusun Kingdom." Professor Sun pointed to the beautiful woman in the painting.

"Then this one must be Lie Jiaomi, and looks quite mighty." The big guys pointed at the middle-aged man and talked a lot.

Professor Sun went on to say: "Liejiaomi named Princess Jiangdu as Mrs. You. When he was dying, he asked the princess to remarry his grandson Junxumi."

"Is there such a thing? Junxu Mi is their grandson!" Everyone asked in confusion.

"This is the custom in Wusun. The wife of the previous generation of monarchs can remarry to the next generation of monarchs. Just like the princess Jieyou recorded in the history books, she tried her best for her mother country. She married three times, and the last time she married Giving it to her own son, her decades in Wushan Kingdom are absolutely crucial to the contribution of the Western Han Dynasty."

This is even more unbelievable. For the benefit of the mother country, she actually married her own son. What a great woman she is.

After reading the pictures on the pillars, a group of five of us climbed the ladder hanging in the corner to a tower.

The tower is more than 30 meters high and is also circular.The history of Wusun Kingdom is engraved on the walls of each floor.Especially Lie Jiaomi's heroic deeds occupy half of the tower.Professor Sun explained to us as he walked: "This picture is the detailed process of Lie Jiaomi's defeat of the Dayue Clan. This picture shows that Lie Jiaomi conquered a large area of ​​land from Jinshan to Tianshan."

Every time we walked up a floor, Professor Sun would give lectures, and the monitor and the others would record and take pictures, and I would stroll around to watch the excitement.After finally getting down to the bottom floor, we were immediately shocked by the sight in front of us.

I saw many cups and plates on the table in the aisle on the ground floor.Those cups and plates are oddly shaped, like human skulls.The cup was painted with bright red oil paint, and some strange characters were drawn on it.

The plate is multicolored and divided into three layers. The innermost layer depicts a swaddled baby lying in the grass, and a crow hovering in the air with a piece of meat in its beak.In the middle layer is a wolf nursing the child.On the outermost layer is a young man with red hair and blue eyes riding a horse and leading a large group of people to drive away a group of people.

The figures on the three layers are outlined and dyed with blue and brown, and dotted with rocks, birds and animals. The whole picture is full and vivid.

It is a pity that Wusun Kingdom did not have firing technology at that time, and they mainly engaged in nomadic and animal husbandry. If these paintings were fired on porcelain and pottery, they would definitely be no worse than Yuan blue and white.

Professor Sun picked up a cup, read it several times, and finally pointed to the words on it and said: "This cup and plate are made of the skulls of Yuezhi people."

"Ah!" We exclaimed in unison, how many human skulls are needed to make so many cups and plates!

"This Lie Jiaomi is too cruel." Several archaeologists pointed to Lie Jiaomi's image and had different opinions.

At this time, Professor Sun said unhurriedly: "The ancient feudal system was so cruel. Most of them used force to settle the outcome. The Yuezhi Kingdom killed and was brutally wiped out by the Yuezhi Kingdom, and the casualties were also heavy."

We were all silent for a while, feeling helpless and sorry for the people at that time, we could only blame the cruel feudal system.

While listening to Professor Sun's explanation, I played with those cups and plates, and was deeply confused by the pictures on them.If this batch of cups and plates made of skulls can be placed in a museum for the world to watch and evaluate, it will be worth the money.

While playing around, I found a unique plate.This plate looks like it is made of two skulls, and three people are painted on it. Their faces are lifelike and very agile.The middle one is Lie Jiaomi.On his left is a heroic woman riding majestically on horseback, and on the right is a quiet, beautiful woman with fair skin.These two women may be Lie Jiaomi's left and right wives, it seems that Lie Jiaomi hugs left and right, and lives quite comfortably.

"Professor Sun, can I take this plate away as a token of my search for the ruins this time. But don't worry, I will only take this one."

Professor Sun took the plate and looked at it several times, and said with some reluctance: "Jin Tao, you are too good at picking, this plate is the best one here. Look at this skull, there are not only two skulls, but also The layout is quite peculiar, and the three people above are the most authoritative people in Wusun Kingdom at that time."

After listening to Professor Sun's words, I could only laugh dryly a few times.How can I not understand that Hongmao and I must bring something of value when we go back this time, otherwise we will not be able to pass the test of Mr. Cai. It is related to our future fate, how can I not treat it with caution? .

I wrapped the plate several layers with oiled paper, and carefully put it into the backpack.Then the five of us walked out of the tower and saw a big oval tomb.

This tomb is very peculiar, oval in shape, with many bucket-shaped decorations on the top of the tomb, and a pure wooden structure.The entire tomb is about 12 meters high and has an extremely magnificent appearance. Not only is the shape straight, but also the shape is extremely varied. The bucket offerings on it are surrounded by clouds.

Such a beautiful tomb, it seems that this is undoubtedly Lie Jiaomi's residence.

The tomb is relatively spacious, and there is no gloomy atmosphere in the ancient tomb.There are more than a dozen terracotta figurines standing in the main hall. These terracotta figurines are about 23 centimeters high. They are all red-haired and blue-eyed. They wear Hu clothes and have different expressions. They may represent the attendants and bodyguards of the tomb owner during his lifetime.

A huge piece of wood hangs from the beam of the tomb. The diameter of this piece of wood is about two meters. It looks like the trunk of a big tree. There are branches, and there are still many green leaves hanging on the branches.

"Here, this piece of wood is the legendary Kunlun sacred tree?" Professor Sun pointed to that piece of wood with an expression of astonishment no less than that of Columbus discovering the New World.

The Kunlun Sacred Tree is the best wood. It is said that the Kunlun Sacred Tree can survive even without soil, sunlight and water.If the corpse is put into the Kunlun Shenmu, it is said that the corpse will not rot for ten thousand years, and its face will be lifelike, just like a living person falling asleep.

Who else could put the corpse into the sacred tree except Lie Jiaomi?
