After participating in the metaphysical variety show, I exploded
Chapter 041 He is not dead yet
The undead was a military general in golden armor, a middle-aged man with a beard, a tiger's head and a swallow, a broad face with a heavy mouth, and a scar running through the left side of his face, adding to his already mighty and burly face. A bit ferocious and domineering.
At this moment, he was looking sadly at the busy workers and archaeologists in the tomb.
Le Qinian stared at him intently.
If his memory is correct, it should be Hussar General Dongfang Changyue, right?
In addition to the coffins of Emperor Yongwen and the Empress, there are many coffins for funerals in the main coffin room.Dongfang Changyue once made extraordinary achievements for Emperor Yongwen, so it is reasonable to be buried with him.
But, uh, this gets a little awkward.
Le Qinian originally thought that all the undead in the tomb had passed away long ago, after all, it had been hundreds of years since Dayong perished.The mausoleum has also been invaded by tomb robbers.If the undead were still in the tomb, how could those two little thieves be allowed to make trouble?
Unexpectedly, Dongfang Changyue's undead were still lingering in the Yangshi.
Let me ask: During the archaeological excavation, the soul of the deceased stood by and stared at it. What kind of feeling is this?
Realizing that someone was staring at him, Dongfang Changyue Chaole Qinian cast a surprised look.
"Daoist Xu Xing?" He murmured, "No, although it looks like it, I'm afraid it isn't? Isn't Taoist Xu Xing passed away?"
Xu Xing - is the Taoist name of Le Qi Nian.
Dongfang Changyue then said to himself: "But he died with that evil man back then, didn't he leave no bones behind? Maybe their cultivators have ascended to Taoism and become immortal?"
Le Qinian looked at him speechlessly.Why talk to yourself out loud in front of him?
He looked around, and the workers and archaeological team members around him were busy with their work, and no one paid attention to him at all.So he lowered his head and squeezed out a few words from the corner of his mouth: "General, you are poor."
Dongfang Changyue turned pale with shock: "Can you see me?"
...Isn't this obvious?
The general's undead stared at Le Qinian, as if he had seen a ghost.Le Qinian thought it was funny, he was obviously a ghost, why was he being looked at like a ghost?
Le Qinian looked at him, and the past suddenly came to his mind like a tide.
At this moment, he seemed to have returned to 700 years ago. He was still a Taoist priest of Xuanqing Temple, and he brought his junior brother to meet Shen Qian, who was still King Huai.King Huai honored the virtuous and virtuous, and sent down talents in an eclectic manner. All kinds of strange people often appeared in the mansion.For example, the blond-haired and blue-eyed Western missionary set up an easel in a corner of the palace from time to time, calling himself a sketcher.Another example is that tall and burly general, with a ferocious appearance, not angry and majestic, but likes to tease the kittens in the palace when no one is around...
For Le Qinian, everything seems to have happened yesterday.But for this world, 700 years have passed.
"You... are really Daoist Xu Xing?" Dongfang Changyue couldn't believe it, and walked around Le Qinian for a long time, muttering, "Has the Taoist priest already ascended to Taoism? Otherwise, how could he have survived to this day?"
"It's a long story." Le Qinian paid attention to the movement around him while talking, "I thought I was going to die when I fought against that evil man, but when I opened my eyes, it was more than 700 years later. I also want to know what happened .”
Dongfang Changyue looked at the Taoist robe on Le Qinian's body, then at the sickle in his hand, and muttered: "I think so. The immortals in the picture scroll are all in neon clothes and feathers. If the Taoist priest really ascends to Taoism, How can you dress so poorly?"
Le Qinian: "..."
So your criterion for judging whether someone is soaring is the gorgeousness of the clothes?
"It's the general, why don't you go to die?" He asked.
"Guarding the imperial mausoleum is an important job, how can I go to die?"
"But General, Dayong is dead..."
Le Qinian thought Dongfang Changyue would be terrified like a widely circulated emoji: What?My Qing Dynasty is dead?Unexpectedly, the Undead General was silent for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Of course I know. His Majesty said at the beginning that although the dragon's veins are still there, the dragon's energy has already been cut off. I am afraid that Dayong is dead. It is a pity that the Taoist priest and Mr. Francis have exhausted their efforts. The construction of this mausoleum continued the Dayong dragon vein, but in the end it still failed to make Dayong eternal..."
After all, the undead general let out a long sigh.
"Daozhang, how did Dayong die?"
"How else can he die, the descendants are unworthy." Le Qinian said helplessly.
After coming to the present world, he has specifically consulted history.The downfall of a dynasty is often the result of the superposition of multiple reasons.If I really want to elaborate, I’m afraid it will take three days and three nights to write a whole doctoral dissertation.So Le Qinian thought about it for a while, and chose the most understandable reason: "Large construction work, waste of money for the people, made the people miserable, and starved everywhere. The common people rose up and shouted that the princes and generals are better than others. ——Probably that's what happened. "
Dongfang Changyue let out another long sigh. "It's so... If it was a foreign enemy's invasion, I wouldn't be so angry. At worst, I can learn from Xiang Yu's words, 'I will die from this day'."
As he spoke, he suddenly shook his head: "No, that's not right. If Dayong had a harmonious government, with virtuous ministers inside and good generals outside, even if the foreign enemy came, how could he destroy us? It must be because he was rotten inside himself before giving him An opportunity for others to take advantage of."
Le Qinian smiled wryly.After so many years, Dongfang Changyue's habit of talking to himself and answering questions by himself still hasn't changed.
"Since Your Majesty knows that Dayong is dead, where is Your Majesty now?" He asked.
"It's passed away." Dongfang Changyue said sullenly, "The rest of the burials have also passed away."
"Then why is the general still here?" Le Qinian was surprised.
"Prevent tomb robbers from coveting His Majesty's treasures." Dongfang Changyue said, "There are many rare treasures stored in the tomb, I am afraid that they will be stolen and sold by tomb robbers, which will take advantage of those shameless thieves, so I voluntarily stay to guard the tomb. It's just that I couldn't even do this task well..."
He looked sadly at the two bones in the corner of the main chamber.
"The two tomb robbers were beheaded by the general?" Le Qinian asked.
"That's right." Dongfang Changyue nodded, "It's just that I didn't expect that their resentment would be so strong that after death they would turn into resentful spirits and occupy the tomb. It was also stolen by that little thief...I...I'm sorry Your Majesty's Ron..."
The undead general looked pained and lowered his head deeply.
Le Qinian finally figured out the ins and outs.He originally thought that there was no soul in the imperial tomb, so the tomb robbers took advantage of the emptiness to enter, but unexpectedly died in the tomb, and finally turned into a resentful spirit.But in fact, the two were killed by the Eastern General guarding the tomb.After those two died, they were many times stronger than before they were alive. General Dongfang was hard to beat with four fists, so he was suppressed until today.
It does happen occasionally.A person who was weak and powerless in life gained extraordinary power after death because of too strong resentment or attachment.
"General, don't blame yourself." Le Qinian comforted, "Who would have thought that those two would turn into spirits? Now that the spirits have been removed by me, the general can go to his death with peace of mind."
"Dao, the Taoist priest is indeed one of His Majesty's most trusted loyal ministers..." Dongfang Changyue was so moved that he stuttered, "Although the Taoist priest left early, His Majesty has not forgotten the Taoist priest, allowing you to be buried in the imperial tomb! "
——Don't use words like "leave early" in front of yourself, okay?I am still alive and kicking!Le Qinian complained secretly.
General Undead pointed to a sarcophagus on the west side of the main coffin chamber, "The Taoist priest didn't leave any bones, so there is only an empty coffin."
As he spoke, he glanced at Le Qinian, his eyes seemed to say: This is a great honor, why don't you kneel down and thank His Majesty's spirit in heaven?
Le Qinian walked to his own coffin.Tai Chi gossip is engraved on the sarcophagus, symbolizing his status as a Taoist priest.He bent his fingers and knocked, and there was a dull echo from the sarcophagus, and it was indeed empty.
It feels so strange, standing in front of your own coffin even though someone else is still alive.Probably few people in the world have had this kind of experience... When the archaeological team found this empty coffin, how would they react?
The identity of the owner of this empty coffin will probably become an eternal mystery in the archaeological world, right?
His behavior attracted nearby archaeological team members.They greeted them dancing and dancing like walking octopuses, commenting around the coffin.
"Fantastic carvings! This is the first time I've seen such patterns! Have you seen anything similar in other ancient tombs?"
"It's amazing, why do I want to carve Tai Chi gossip? If I write a paper on it, will it be published in core journals? Ah, there is hope for this year's job title evaluation!"
Dongfang Changyue looked at the group of whispering archaeologists, and turned to Le Qinian. "Daoist, who are they?" The Undead General was stunned, "How dare they tamper with His Majesty's treasure? Are they also grave robbers?"
Le Qinian covered his mouth and whispered: "This is archaeology, how can it be called tomb robbery? The general's ideological awareness needs to be improved. We are now doing a rescue excavation. If we don't rescue the cultural relics in the tomb, all the cultural relics in the tomb will be lost."
At this time, under the command of Professor Gu, the archaeological team opened the warehouse located on the east side of the main coffin chamber.The warehouse is located in Xun, which belongs to wood and is specially used to store books.
Immediately there were screams of surprise from the team members in the warehouse.
"Ah! Is this "The Legend of the Sea Country" from the reign of Emperor Yongwen! The "Strange Story of the Sea Country" that has not been edited by later generations!"
"Damn it, the entire shelf over here is full of Emperor Wen's living notes! Mom, I want to live here and won't leave!"
"I didn't expect it to be so well preserved... It may be that the tomb robbers thought the books were worthless, so they didn't destroy this place. It was a blessing in disguise!"
Looking at the library full of volumes, Professor Gu couldn't help stretching out his hand to one of the books, but immediately remembered that he was not wearing gloves, for fear of touching the precious cultural relics, and withdrew his hand as if touching a flame.
"What a treasure trove..." He took off his glasses and wiped his eyes with the back of his hand.
The graduate student on the side asked: "Teacher, what's wrong with you? Is the dust blinding your eyes?"
Professor Gu waved his hand, politely rejecting the paper towel handed over by the graduate student.
"I just remembered my mentor." He smiled, but his voice was a little choked up, "It would be great if he was still here... He is an expert on the history of the Yong Dynasty and has written many papers on Emperor Yongwen But because of the lack of hard evidence, those papers have not been published. In order to find evidence, he was still working hard at the front line of archaeological work. He died of cancer a few months ago, and he kept chanting Those papers. If he lived to this day, he would be able to see this place with his own eyes...just a few months away..."
The old professor put on his glasses, looked around at the graduate students, and sighed melancholy, "You are really a lucky generation to encounter such a major archaeological discovery in the prime of your life. Don't waste this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
The graduate students looked at each other.The name of Professor Gu's tutor is naturally known to everyone in their academic circle.Thinking of the old scholar who searched for it all his life, but still missed the discovery of Emperor Wen's tomb, and those stunned youths who were lucky enough to come to this ancient ruin...
Everyone was filled with emotion for a moment.From Professor Gu's tutor, to Professor Gu, to them... When they have students in the future, those students will probably continue to study these cultural relics.
Maybe they will not be able to become great scholars like Professor Gu's mentor in their lifetime, but at least they can protect these cultural relics passed down from their ancestors and pass them on to the next generation.Even if it is impossible to "build a heart for the world and a life for the people".At least it is necessary to "inherit the unique learning for the sake of the past", and leave it to future generations to "create peace for all generations".
After the initial excitement passed, the archaeologists took action in an orderly manner.
Dongfang Changyue floated above them, looking at the archaeologists who were like bees.He half understood most of what they said.But from the attitudes of these people, he could feel that they were completely different from the group of tomb robbers.The tomb robbers took the treasure and ran away, even destroying the tomb in order to steal the treasure.This group of people treated everything carefully. A young man accidentally touched the bookshelf and was scolded by the old man.
"Don't worry, the general, they will not sell the funerary objects, but put them in a museum to protect them. Maybe a museum will be built here in the future, just like the terracotta warriors.
Le Qinian smiled wryly after speaking.The terracotta warriors and horses were discovered only a few decades ago, and the Eastern General probably didn't even know what they were?
"Let's not talk about the dead emperor. Even if he is a living emperor, he still has to buy a ticket to return to his own palace." Le Qinian continued, "Pindao's gossip mirror has also become a cultural relic. If you don't, you won't come back. No, that's not Pindao's gossip mirror." He looked at Dongfang Changyue, "Pindao wants to ask, where is the Xuanqing gossip mirror? Why is the imitation bronze mirror in the tomb?"
Dongfang Changyue looked distressed: "Daoist Master Xu Zhi originally wanted to use the Xuanqing Bagua mirror to guard the tomb, but His Majesty loves the people like a son, saying that it is a treasure passed down from generation to generation by the Taoist master, and it is inevitable to win people's love." Alright, I ordered Daoist Xu Zhi to make a fake one and replace it."
Xuzhi is Jun Niyun's Taoist name.
strangeness.If the Xuanqing gossip mirror is still in the hands of the younger brother, then it should be passed on to his descendants.But Jun Xiuyan doesn't seem to know this at all.Could it be that the Xuanqing gossip mirror was lost on the way of inheritance?Or, as a junior in the family, Jun Xiuyan is not qualified to know about family treasures?
I'd better go back and ask Jun Xiuyan.
"General, Pindao is going out." Le Qinian whispered, "See you another day."
"Wait a minute, Daoist." The Undead General floated over, "I'll go out with you and have a look. I'm curious what the outside world looks like now."
Le Qinian shrugged, and led Dongfang Changyue's undead through the main coffin chamber, returning to the ground along the way.
When going down to the tomb, the long tomb passage will make people feel that "I am walking towards the underworld".But when you leave the mausoleum and step on the tomb passage, slowly ascending, you will have a feeling of "finally returning from the underworld to the yang world".
Le Qinian passed by the workers or archaeologists entering and leaving the tomb.Some people cast curious glances at him, while more people were busy with their work and didn't have time to look at him at all.
I don't know if it's because I spent too much energy today, but for such a long distance, Le Qinian was out of breath.After finally getting out of Shimen, he supported the isolation shed to stabilize his body, stood still and looked down the mountain.
It is now the time when the lights are on.Because it is on the mountain, it can still shine a little bit of the setting sun.The last ray of light from the sunset passed through the distant mountain peaks and shone on Le Qinian's side face, casting a layer of golden red on his fair skin.There is also a golden light floating in the peach blossom eyes, like a pool of sparkling spring water.
The onlookers gathered outside the tomb have gone home, and the reporters have also dispersed.Only the archaeological team and the engineering team are still busy in the base.
The field of vision here is extremely wide, and you can see the lights of every household in Majia Village at the foot of the mountain. From a distance, it looks like a bright floating boat floating in the mountains.
Dongfang Changyue stared at the small village in the mountain depression, slightly surprised: "What era is it now, that even ordinary people can afford lamps?"
"That's called an electric light." Le Qinian explained, "It's a new modern invention."
"It seems that this is an era of peace." Dongfang Changyue sighed, "Daoist, do you still remember that when we gathered under His Majesty's command, everyone swore that we would fight for His Majesty and assist him in restoring Dayong?"
Le Qinian nodded: "Of course I remember it. It seems like it happened yesterday."
"Later, His Majesty really became the hero of a generation, and everyone praised His Majesty as an invincible king, and called it a prosperous age." A nostalgic smile appeared on Dongfang Changyue's rough face, "Oh, I forgot, The Daoist must have already known this, didn't he?"
"I've read it in history books." Le Qinian said.
Emperor Yongwen Shenqian's reign title was "Tianfeng", and his reign was also called the prosperous age of Tianfeng by later generations.
"Compared with His Majesty's prosperous age, who is better?"
They are hundreds of years behind, how can they compare?Isn't this Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong?Le Qi Nian complained.
He thought for a while, then turned his gaze to the village down the mountain.It hasn't been long since he came to this era, so he can only give a rough idea based on his observations these days and the memory of his original body.
"In today's world, everyone can eat and clothe themselves," he said. "Children can go to school for free. Even those from poor families can afford to go to college as long as they can get the gold medal. Women can go out to show their faces and work just like men. Support the family. When a natural disaster occurs on one side, there will be support from all sides.”
Dongfang Changyue was surprised: "Which dynasty and generation is it now, and which Mingjun is sitting on the throne? I really want to meet him for a while!"
Le Qinian couldn't laugh or cry: "There is no emperor for a long time. Now the people are the masters for themselves."
Dongfang Changyue didn't quite believe it, stared at him for a long time, and found that he wasn't joking.
"It seems that not only Dayong, but also the dynasties of later generations cannot escape the fate of destruction."
The Undead General looked at the black shadows of the mountains in the distance, "It's a pity. It took so much effort to build this huge mausoleum, but Dayong still fell apart in the end. Dynasties rose and fell, and what is eternal?"
Le Qinian also looked into the distance with him, remembering the verses he just learned not long ago:
【"I am the king of kings, I am the king of all kings, and I dare to be subdued by the gods!" There is nothing else, but around the ruins, the lonely flat sand is empty and vast, stretching out to the desolate four directions. 】
"General, please go back to the tomb." Le Qinian said, "You are the body of the undead, and you will lose your soul when exposed to the sun."
Under the setting sun, Dongfang Changyue's figure faded away.
But he just stared at the small village in the mountains.
The villagers who went down the mountain returned home in groups of three and four.The sound of calling people to eat echoed everywhere.Farmers returning late drove their tractors back to the village in a chug.The children came back from school holding hands, bouncing up and down, with their red scarves fluttering on their chests.
"Daoist, let me take a look again." Dongfang Changyue said in a trance, "Look at this beautiful river and mountain, and all the sentient beings."
Suddenly, a shout came from the bottom of the mountain: "Xiao Le, you are out! The show is over! Everyone go to the farmhouse for dinner!"
Le Qinian glanced in the direction of the sound, and it turned out to be Tang Yucheng.
He looked at Dongfang Changyue beside him: "General?"
Dongfang Changyue closed his eyes. "Master Daoist, remember to tell those 'archaeologists' that there is a sealed porcelain bottle in the burial object. Don't break it, and you can't remove the seal."
"Why?" Le Qinian was puzzled.
"After the battle between the evil man Wuming and the Taoist priest, the ghost persisted. Taoist Xuzhi and Mr. Francis joined hands to seal the soul of that person in a porcelain vase and put it in the ground. If the porcelain vase is broken, that guy will regain his soul." become free."
Le Qinian was dumbfounded, but felt a chill creeping up his back and to the top of his head.
No one told him that the evil ignorant is still alive!
No, he himself is still alive, and it doesn't seem surprising that that guy is alive...
It was just such a momentary distraction, when he looked around again, the general's undead had disappeared without a trace.
At the same time, a golden light shot up from Daqiu Mountain and flew towards the sky, like a fierce tiger riding the wind.
The wind follows the tiger, and the cloud follows the dragon.As a military general with outstanding achievements and eternal fame, Dongfang Changyue will naturally not go to the underworld after his death, but will be ushered into the sky.
When Tang Yucheng walked up the mountain, he felt a gust of wind blowing by him.
"Tsk, it's windy on the mountain." He muttered, and then shouted loudly, "Xiao Le, come down! The farmhouse's meal is ready!"
For some reason, Le Qinian stood there in a daze, as if he didn't hear what he said.
"Xiao Le? Xiao Le? Nian Bao?" Tang Yucheng stepped forward, held the young man's shoulders and shook them lightly, "Why are you in a daze?"
The setting sun was completely engulfed by the mountains.The earth was plunged into darkness.
Le Qinian spent a lot of energy dealing with the undead of the two tomb robbers in the tomb.I went in and out with the archaeological team and worked for a long time, but now I just feel weak.
"Brother Tang, tell the archaeological team," he said dizzily, "there is a porcelain vase in the tomb..."
"Huh? What's a defective product?" Tang Yucheng didn't hear clearly.
"Absolutely not...open..."
After saying this, Le Qinian's body softened and he just fell down.
At this moment, he was looking sadly at the busy workers and archaeologists in the tomb.
Le Qinian stared at him intently.
If his memory is correct, it should be Hussar General Dongfang Changyue, right?
In addition to the coffins of Emperor Yongwen and the Empress, there are many coffins for funerals in the main coffin room.Dongfang Changyue once made extraordinary achievements for Emperor Yongwen, so it is reasonable to be buried with him.

Let me ask: During the archaeological excavation, the soul of the deceased stood by and stared at it. What kind of feeling is this?
Realizing that someone was staring at him, Dongfang Changyue Chaole Qinian cast a surprised look.
"Daoist Xu Xing?" He murmured, "No, although it looks like it, I'm afraid it isn't? Isn't Taoist Xu Xing passed away?"
Xu Xing - is the Taoist name of Le Qi Nian.
Dongfang Changyue then said to himself: "But he died with that evil man back then, didn't he leave no bones behind? Maybe their cultivators have ascended to Taoism and become immortal?"
Le Qinian looked at him speechlessly.Why talk to yourself out loud in front of him?
He looked around, and the workers and archaeological team members around him were busy with their work, and no one paid attention to him at all.So he lowered his head and squeezed out a few words from the corner of his mouth: "General, you are poor."
Dongfang Changyue turned pale with shock: "Can you see me?"
...Isn't this obvious?
The general's undead stared at Le Qinian, as if he had seen a ghost.Le Qinian thought it was funny, he was obviously a ghost, why was he being looked at like a ghost?
Le Qinian looked at him, and the past suddenly came to his mind like a tide.
At this moment, he seemed to have returned to 700 years ago. He was still a Taoist priest of Xuanqing Temple, and he brought his junior brother to meet Shen Qian, who was still King Huai.King Huai honored the virtuous and virtuous, and sent down talents in an eclectic manner. All kinds of strange people often appeared in the mansion.For example, the blond-haired and blue-eyed Western missionary set up an easel in a corner of the palace from time to time, calling himself a sketcher.Another example is that tall and burly general, with a ferocious appearance, not angry and majestic, but likes to tease the kittens in the palace when no one is around...
For Le Qinian, everything seems to have happened yesterday.But for this world, 700 years have passed.
"You... are really Daoist Xu Xing?" Dongfang Changyue couldn't believe it, and walked around Le Qinian for a long time, muttering, "Has the Taoist priest already ascended to Taoism? Otherwise, how could he have survived to this day?"

"Ah! Is this "The Legend of the Sea Country" from the reign of Emperor Yongwen! The "Strange Story of the Sea Country" that has not been edited by later generations!"
"Damn it, the entire shelf over here is full of Emperor Wen's living notes! Mom, I want to live here and won't leave!"
"I didn't expect it to be so well preserved... It may be that the tomb robbers thought the books were worthless, so they didn't destroy this place. It was a blessing in disguise!"
Looking at the library full of volumes, Professor Gu couldn't help stretching out his hand to one of the books, but immediately remembered that he was not wearing gloves, for fear of touching the precious cultural relics, and withdrew his hand as if touching a flame.
"What a treasure trove..." He took off his glasses and wiped his eyes with the back of his hand.
The graduate student on the side asked: "Teacher, what's wrong with you? Is the dust blinding your eyes?"
Professor Gu waved his hand, politely rejecting the paper towel handed over by the graduate student.
"I just remembered my mentor." He smiled, but his voice was a little choked up, "It would be great if he was still here... He is an expert on the history of the Yong Dynasty and has written many papers on Emperor Yongwen But because of the lack of hard evidence, those papers have not been published. In order to find evidence, he was still working hard at the front line of archaeological work. He died of cancer a few months ago, and he kept chanting Those papers. If he lived to this day, he would be able to see this place with his own eyes...just a few months away..."
The old professor put on his glasses, looked around at the graduate students, and sighed melancholy, "You are really a lucky generation to encounter such a major archaeological discovery in the prime of your life. Don't waste this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
The graduate students looked at each other.The name of Professor Gu's tutor is naturally known to everyone in their academic circle.Thinking of the old scholar who searched for it all his life, but still missed the discovery of Emperor Wen's tomb, and those stunned youths who were lucky enough to come to this ancient ruin...
Everyone was filled with emotion for a moment.From Professor Gu's tutor, to Professor Gu, to them... When they have students in the future, those students will probably continue to study these cultural relics.
Maybe they will not be able to become great scholars like Professor Gu's mentor in their lifetime, but at least they can protect these cultural relics passed down from their ancestors and pass them on to the next generation.Even if it is impossible to "build a heart for the world and a life for the people".At least it is necessary to "inherit the unique learning for the sake of the past", and leave it to future generations to "create peace for all generations".
After the initial excitement passed, the archaeologists took action in an orderly manner.
Dongfang Changyue floated above them, looking at the archaeologists who were like bees.He half understood most of what they said.But from the attitudes of these people, he could feel that they were completely different from the group of tomb robbers.The tomb robbers took the treasure and ran away, even destroying the tomb in order to steal the treasure.This group of people treated everything carefully. A young man accidentally touched the bookshelf and was scolded by the old man.
"Don't worry, the general, they will not sell the funerary objects, but put them in a museum to protect them. Maybe a museum will be built here in the future, just like the terracotta warriors.
Le Qinian smiled wryly after speaking.The terracotta warriors and horses were discovered only a few decades ago, and the Eastern General probably didn't even know what they were?
"Let's not talk about the dead emperor. Even if he is a living emperor, he still has to buy a ticket to return to his own palace." Le Qinian continued, "Pindao's gossip mirror has also become a cultural relic. If you don't, you won't come back. No, that's not Pindao's gossip mirror." He looked at Dongfang Changyue, "Pindao wants to ask, where is the Xuanqing gossip mirror? Why is the imitation bronze mirror in the tomb?"
Dongfang Changyue looked distressed: "Daoist Master Xu Zhi originally wanted to use the Xuanqing Bagua mirror to guard the tomb, but His Majesty loves the people like a son, saying that it is a treasure passed down from generation to generation by the Taoist master, and it is inevitable to win people's love." Alright, I ordered Daoist Xu Zhi to make a fake one and replace it."
Xuzhi is Jun Niyun's Taoist name.
strangeness.If the Xuanqing gossip mirror is still in the hands of the younger brother, then it should be passed on to his descendants.But Jun Xiuyan doesn't seem to know this at all.Could it be that the Xuanqing gossip mirror was lost on the way of inheritance?Or, as a junior in the family, Jun Xiuyan is not qualified to know about family treasures?
I'd better go back and ask Jun Xiuyan.
"General, Pindao is going out." Le Qinian whispered, "See you another day."
"Wait a minute, Daoist." The Undead General floated over, "I'll go out with you and have a look. I'm curious what the outside world looks like now."
Le Qinian shrugged, and led Dongfang Changyue's undead through the main coffin chamber, returning to the ground along the way.
When going down to the tomb, the long tomb passage will make people feel that "I am walking towards the underworld".But when you leave the mausoleum and step on the tomb passage, slowly ascending, you will have a feeling of "finally returning from the underworld to the yang world".
Le Qinian passed by the workers or archaeologists entering and leaving the tomb.Some people cast curious glances at him, while more people were busy with their work and didn't have time to look at him at all.
I don't know if it's because I spent too much energy today, but for such a long distance, Le Qinian was out of breath.After finally getting out of Shimen, he supported the isolation shed to stabilize his body, stood still and looked down the mountain.
It is now the time when the lights are on.Because it is on the mountain, it can still shine a little bit of the setting sun.The last ray of light from the sunset passed through the distant mountain peaks and shone on Le Qinian's side face, casting a layer of golden red on his fair skin.There is also a golden light floating in the peach blossom eyes, like a pool of sparkling spring water.
The onlookers gathered outside the tomb have gone home, and the reporters have also dispersed.Only the archaeological team and the engineering team are still busy in the base.
The field of vision here is extremely wide, and you can see the lights of every household in Majia Village at the foot of the mountain. From a distance, it looks like a bright floating boat floating in the mountains.
Dongfang Changyue stared at the small village in the mountain depression, slightly surprised: "What era is it now, that even ordinary people can afford lamps?"
"That's called an electric light." Le Qinian explained, "It's a new modern invention."
"It seems that this is an era of peace." Dongfang Changyue sighed, "Daoist, do you still remember that when we gathered under His Majesty's command, everyone swore that we would fight for His Majesty and assist him in restoring Dayong?"
Le Qinian nodded: "Of course I remember it. It seems like it happened yesterday."
"Later, His Majesty really became the hero of a generation, and everyone praised His Majesty as an invincible king, and called it a prosperous age." A nostalgic smile appeared on Dongfang Changyue's rough face, "Oh, I forgot, The Daoist must have already known this, didn't he?"
"I've read it in history books." Le Qinian said.
Emperor Yongwen Shenqian's reign title was "Tianfeng", and his reign was also called the prosperous age of Tianfeng by later generations.
"Compared with His Majesty's prosperous age, who is better?"
They are hundreds of years behind, how can they compare?Isn't this Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong?Le Qi Nian complained.
He thought for a while, then turned his gaze to the village down the mountain.It hasn't been long since he came to this era, so he can only give a rough idea based on his observations these days and the memory of his original body.
"In today's world, everyone can eat and clothe themselves," he said. "Children can go to school for free. Even those from poor families can afford to go to college as long as they can get the gold medal. Women can go out to show their faces and work just like men. Support the family. When a natural disaster occurs on one side, there will be support from all sides.”
Dongfang Changyue was surprised: "Which dynasty and generation is it now, and which Mingjun is sitting on the throne? I really want to meet him for a while!"
Le Qinian couldn't laugh or cry: "There is no emperor for a long time. Now the people are the masters for themselves."
Dongfang Changyue didn't quite believe it, stared at him for a long time, and found that he wasn't joking.
"It seems that not only Dayong, but also the dynasties of later generations cannot escape the fate of destruction."
The Undead General looked at the black shadows of the mountains in the distance, "It's a pity. It took so much effort to build this huge mausoleum, but Dayong still fell apart in the end. Dynasties rose and fell, and what is eternal?"
Le Qinian also looked into the distance with him, remembering the verses he just learned not long ago:
【"I am the king of kings, I am the king of all kings, and I dare to be subdued by the gods!" There is nothing else, but around the ruins, the lonely flat sand is empty and vast, stretching out to the desolate four directions. 】
"General, please go back to the tomb." Le Qinian said, "You are the body of the undead, and you will lose your soul when exposed to the sun."
Under the setting sun, Dongfang Changyue's figure faded away.
But he just stared at the small village in the mountains.
The villagers who went down the mountain returned home in groups of three and four.The sound of calling people to eat echoed everywhere.Farmers returning late drove their tractors back to the village in a chug.The children came back from school holding hands, bouncing up and down, with their red scarves fluttering on their chests.
"Daoist, let me take a look again." Dongfang Changyue said in a trance, "Look at this beautiful river and mountain, and all the sentient beings."
Suddenly, a shout came from the bottom of the mountain: "Xiao Le, you are out! The show is over! Everyone go to the farmhouse for dinner!"
Le Qinian glanced in the direction of the sound, and it turned out to be Tang Yucheng.
He looked at Dongfang Changyue beside him: "General?"
Dongfang Changyue closed his eyes. "Master Daoist, remember to tell those 'archaeologists' that there is a sealed porcelain bottle in the burial object. Don't break it, and you can't remove the seal."
"Why?" Le Qinian was puzzled.
"After the battle between the evil man Wuming and the Taoist priest, the ghost persisted. Taoist Xuzhi and Mr. Francis joined hands to seal the soul of that person in a porcelain vase and put it in the ground. If the porcelain vase is broken, that guy will regain his soul." become free."
Le Qinian was dumbfounded, but felt a chill creeping up his back and to the top of his head.
No one told him that the evil ignorant is still alive!
No, he himself is still alive, and it doesn't seem surprising that that guy is alive...
It was just such a momentary distraction, when he looked around again, the general's undead had disappeared without a trace.
At the same time, a golden light shot up from Daqiu Mountain and flew towards the sky, like a fierce tiger riding the wind.
The wind follows the tiger, and the cloud follows the dragon.As a military general with outstanding achievements and eternal fame, Dongfang Changyue will naturally not go to the underworld after his death, but will be ushered into the sky.
When Tang Yucheng walked up the mountain, he felt a gust of wind blowing by him.
"Tsk, it's windy on the mountain." He muttered, and then shouted loudly, "Xiao Le, come down! The farmhouse's meal is ready!"
For some reason, Le Qinian stood there in a daze, as if he didn't hear what he said.
"Xiao Le? Xiao Le? Nian Bao?" Tang Yucheng stepped forward, held the young man's shoulders and shook them lightly, "Why are you in a daze?"
The setting sun was completely engulfed by the mountains.The earth was plunged into darkness.
Le Qinian spent a lot of energy dealing with the undead of the two tomb robbers in the tomb.I went in and out with the archaeological team and worked for a long time, but now I just feel weak.
"Brother Tang, tell the archaeological team," he said dizzily, "there is a porcelain vase in the tomb..."
"Huh? What's a defective product?" Tang Yucheng didn't hear clearly.
"Absolutely not...open..."
After saying this, Le Qinian's body softened and he just fell down.
