[Tomb Raider] Escape

It took two days to clear the tomb passage, and then the archaeological team began to clean the tomb.

Cleaning up the tomb is no different than others. It must be meticulous and meticulous. It is necessary to use a small brush to clean out the cultural relics one by one from the soil to protect the cultural relics to the maximum extent.

When cleaning the tomb, Nangong Gousheng couldn't reach out even if he wanted to, so he and Li Yaoyao stretched their necks and waited eagerly.

The first unearthed cultural relic was a crown with golden steps of ox head and antlers. The caviar pattern on the edge of the crown can be seen mottled, and the blue and emerald inlaid on it are still bright and moving.

When the archaeologists delivered it to Mr. Wang, Mr. Wang almost burst into tears. The hand holding the cultural relic trembled, so frightened that Li Yaoyao squatted beside him and stretched out his hand, for fear that he would smash the cultural relic in agitation. .

"Such a distinctive Xianbei jewelry, so well preserved... Oh my god, my god, my god!" Wang Lao said three times of 'oh my god' in a row, which made Li Yaoyao excited and stared at The gem inlaid on the step shaker, wishing to pick it off and put it in his pocket.

Li Yaoyao quietly asked Nangong Gousheng: "Master, what year is it?"

Nangong Gousheng said: "Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. I guess it may be from the Northern Wei Dynasty. I heard that four Northern Wei tombs have been found in this area before. Helinger County was called Shengle in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and there is still a Shengle now." The town is much smaller than it was back then. Tuoba Gui, Emperor Daowu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, first proclaimed himself king in this place and developed his power. It took more than ten years before he moved his capital to Datong—now in Shanxi—and proclaimed himself emperor. "

"Hey." Li Yaoyao said with a smile, "What a coincidence. We just finished digging the tombs of the Western Xia kings, and now we're digging the graves of their ancestors."

Gou Sheng also laughed.

Soon, more and more cultural relics with distinctive Xianbei ethnic characteristics were unearthed.

More than ten days later, the archaeological team cleared the first text brick from the tomb.

More than 300 text bricks have been unearthed in the middle layer of four other Northern Wei tombs excavated earlier in Inner Mongolia. The text on them has not been fully deciphered, but more than 260 characters can be read.

It's a pity that none of the archaeologists present, including Nangong Gousheng, knew this kind of script, so Mr. Wang asked people to carefully put this brick of script into a bag, and prepared to send it back to the research institute for interpretation.

In the evening, when everyone returned to their residence, Su Yi asked Li Yaoyao, "What does Master think about the progress so far?"

Li Yaoyao said: "Oh, my master said... well, I won't tell you unless you let me ride it."

Su Yi: "..."

Su Yi's face was red, seeing Li Yaoyao's cute face, he was actually very impulsive to hug him and kiss him hard, but he held back, pretending to be careless and said: "Forget it, I will Go ask your master yourself."

Li Yaoyao pouted, and complained very aggrieved: "Why are you like this! It's no fun at all!"

Su Yi secretly laughed.

Li Yaoyao said thoughtfully: "Didn't my master come here two years ago? He found that the stone walls were too thick and it was not easy to cut through, so he thought of dissolving them with feces. Later, he gave up when he found out." It's gone." At that time, Yu Yu was busy cheating women, Li Yaoyao was busy playing with men, only Gou Sheng and She She participated in this tomb robbery. "Actually, he didn't know what was in the tomb at first. He only found out after watching you dig out the treasures. He said that it might be the tomb of a prince in the Northern Wei Dynasty. He died suddenly and was buried in a hurry, so the scale of the tomb is not large. Big. But the status is definitely not low, looking at the burial objects and the handwriting of the tomb sealed with stone slabs and iron water, you know that it must be very rich."

Su Yi said: "Today we dug up a statue of Kalavinka, which is a bit different from the Xixia one. It should have been passed down for hundreds of years and then slowly deformed. At present, only the tombs of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Tombs of the Western Xia Dynasty have unearthed Kalavinka. , this tomb is most likely from the Northern Wei Dynasty and cannot escape... What else did your master say?"

Li Yaoyao scratched her head and said, "Actually, your archaeological team can think of almost everything that Master can think of. There are only so few things. Master is not psychic, and he can't talk to the owner of the tomb by touching things..."

Su Yi was amused by his tone, and said, "Go to sleep. I still need to check some information."

Li Yaoyao immediately widened her glasses and said, "I'll investigate with you! I'm also interested!"

Su Yi turned on the computer, and the first thing he looked up was the information of Tuobagui, Emperor Daowu of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

The Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties were the period with the most frequent regime changes in Chinese history. The turmoil in this period was like splashing dozens of paints on the map at will, each color block vying for its own one-acre three-point land, and at the same time They also want to nibble at other people's food, and in the end they all get mixed together and become a paste.

The Northern Wei Dynasty was a regime of the Tuoba Tribe of the Xianbei nationality. It originally lived in the Heilongjiang and Nenjiang River basins, and later migrated westward to the Mobei area, and then moved to Shengle, and gradually had contacts with Cao Wei and the Western Jin Dynasty.After the Yongjia Rebellion, Daiguo was established.

Daowu Emperor Tuoba Gui was the grandson of Dai Wang Tuoba Shiyiqian. When he was five years old, the former Qin Dynasty destroyed the Dai Kingdom, and his mother Helan took him to flee.Ten years later, the 15-year-old Tuoba Gui took advantage of the collapse of the former Qin Dynasty to re-establish the Dai State and establish its capital in Shengle.In the following year, the name of the country was changed to "Wei", which was the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Su Yi said: "I have a conjecture... If the owner of the tomb is a woman, is it possible that it is the tomb of Tuobagui's mother He Lan?"

Li Yaoyao squinted at him: "You really dare to guess."

Su Yi said solemnly: "Bold assumptions, rigorous reasoning, and careful verification." At present, there is no object unearthed in the tomb that can prove the gender of the tomb owner. It is possible to open the coffin until the tomb is completely cleaned.

Su Yi then said with some regret: "But there is no record about the Helan family in history. We don't even know the year she died."

The two continued to look down.

When Tuobagui was 27 years old, he moved the capital from Shengle to Datong.He was a warrior, and one sentence is enough to sum up his life's achievements: "Gaoliu City was defeated, Liu Xian was defeated in Mize Lake, Rouran was attacked thousands of miles away, Xiongnu was crossed across the river, Gaoche was attacked in the north, horses were drinking in Beihai, tigers walked in the Central Plains, and they were defeated. Houyan."

It's a pity that the hero did not die well. The middle-aged Tuoba Gui became irritable and even insane. At the age of 39, he was assassinated by his son Tuoba Shao.

Li Yaoyao was stunned: "I don't doubt at all that Xixia is a descendant of the Northern Wei Dynasty. The founding emperors were all killed by their own sons. What is this? Is it a tradition of the Xianbei people?"

Su Yi smiled and said: "Since the Northern Wei Dynasty is targeted, the regime of the Northern Wei Dynasty was concentrated in Shengle for only 13 years. Judging from the current funeral objects and the fact that he did not use bricks but sealed them with stone slabs and molten iron, this man His status should not be low. Assuming this is the case, then if the emperor moves the capital, he should also leave, so this person died during the 13 years when Shengle was the capital."

However, there is actually very little information about the Northern Wei Dynasty in the history of this period of time.One is that the general environment is too chaotic and complicated, and it is difficult for later generations to verify it when they compiled history. The other is that the Northern Wei Dynasty was still in the development stage at this time and was not strong.

The two searched for information for a long time but found nothing. Su Yi rubbed the eye point, leaned back on the chair and said, "Actually, it is not easy to keep this tomb. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties—especially the Southern and Northern Dynasties, There are very few tombs that can be preserved, because the people who fought in troubled times were struggling to survive, and the warlords did not have the money to maintain huge military expenses, so the emperors and generals took the lead in robbing tombs to obtain money, which made the hills of the Central Plains everywhere."

Li Yaoyao said: "I know, I know, Cao Cao just robbed the tomb!"

Su Yi said: "Yes, in fact, it started from the time of the Three Kingdoms, and it seems that Cao Cao took the lead. Therefore, Cao Cao and Cao Pi took the lead. The Wei nobles advocated simple burials, and they were afraid that the tree would attract the wind. But at that time, it was not as exaggerated as the Southern and Northern Dynasties. Most of the Southern and Northern Dynasties were started by emperors who robbed tombs, and there was also a Shixing King Chen Shuling who liked to collect dead bones from tombs and became famous. Just think about how powerful the trend of tomb robbing is.” There are not many tombs left in the historical period, and countless tombs from the previous dynasty were destroyed during this period.

Due to the limited information at hand, the two did not struggle any further.

Li Yaoyao knelt on the ground and spread the quilt, Su Yi suddenly leaned up and pecked him on the face very quickly, before he could react, jumped into the bathroom and locked the door.

Li Yaoyao stayed for a while, then rubbed her cheek and scolded funnyly: "You must be sick, how old are you, and you still play such innocent tricks!" Having said that, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

When Su Yi came out of the bathroom, Li Yaoyao stared at him flatteringly, and could only shake her tail: "Honey, can I sleep on the bed today?"

Su Yi said blankly: "Don't push yourself too hard! I haven't felt your sincerity yet!"

Li Yaoyao curled her lips, and muttered reluctantly: "Do it, you can do it, you can't kill you! I really owe you!" Even though he said so, he obediently got into the bed on the floor and fell asleep. .

The excavation work is still going on. As usual, Su Yi can receive a kiss and a good morning every morning, so she feels refreshed and energetic every day.

On this day, Su Yi personally cleared out a necklace from the tomb and handed it to Mr. Wang.

This is a golden dragon necklace. The dragon head is rolled with gold sheets, the dragon horns are coiled with gold wire, and there are dragon beards coiled with gold wire on both sides of the longan. It is very well preserved.

Elder Wang said solemnly, "Necklaces represent a prominent position among the Xianbei people. Ordinary people cannot use them. And dragons... can't be used indiscriminately."
