The Explanation Is Not Clear, The Tomb Robbery Novel I Wrote Came True

It is located at the intersection of the two wide sleeves of this deep curvy garment, which is roughly in the middle of the waist.

It is obvious that a light wooden box can be seen. Although it is wrapped by two sleeves, some corners are still exposed.

Professor Wen beckoned, and several beams of lights came over immediately, and then two staff members carefully lifted up the two sleeves, one left and one right.

Sure enough, a long box was hidden underneath.

It is different from the box when the Suihou Pearl was discovered. From the perspective of texture and cost, this box is obviously a bit worse.

And the cost of the box can often show the value of some of the treasures inside.

This shows that the value of this treasure in Wang Mang's tomb is obviously far inferior to that of the Suihou Pearl.

However, Professor Wen and others did not express too much disappointment.

The value is not as good as the Suihou Pearl, which is a matter of course, but it can be called a top national treasure.

It can be called the top treasure together with He's Bi, and they often don't come across a treasure of this level in dozens of ancient tombs.

Can you still count on Liu Xiu to shake a super-standard burial object in the ancient tomb built by his competitor?

After putting on professional gloves to avoid direct contact, Professor Wen immediately opened the lid of the box.

There is no brilliance, and there is no dazzling emerald jade. What is lying in the box is an ordinary-looking bronze ware.

It's just that the shape of this bronze ware is rather weird, consisting of upper and lower parts.

The upper part is a bronze handle in the shape of "factory", and there are scratches at regular intervals, very similar to the readings of a ruler.

The lower part is a semi-structure attached to the factory-shaped structure, a handle that can be moved by hand, and a shelf that can slide as a whole.

Combining the upper and lower parts is this strange bronze ware.

Such a discovery immediately made everyone present a little confused, and the faces of the big guys were full of confusion.

What is this?

They have seen oddly shaped bronze wares in the past, but they can roughly tell what their function is.

For example, the wine bar for drinking, the wine bucket for holding wine, and some other practical items.

But this thing... It seems that there is no relevant reference in the history books.

The shape of this bronze ware suddenly stumped Professor Wen and others.

If you bring this object back to the research institute and give them a certain amount of time, they will definitely be able to find out the basic prototype.

But the problem is that it's a bit abrupt now, and they won't be able to remember it for a while, that is, their thinking is immature.

After pondering for half a minute, Professor Wen still had no idea, so he pinned his idea on Chu Yun.

You need to use your familiarity with ancient tombs and identification of treasures. I am not the most knowledgeable among these people, and there is a big boss here.

I don't know, so maybe Chu Yun doesn't know.

Thinking of this, Professor Wen immediately asked, "Chu Yun, based on your knowledge and experience, what should be the function of this bronze vessel?"

Chu Yun, who heard Professor Wen's question, did not give an answer immediately.

The moment the old professor opened the box, Chu Yun's attention was actually no longer on it, because he heard the long-lost system sound again.

"Ding!"

"Congratulations to the host for successfully finding the treasure 【Bronze Caliper】"

"As a measuring tool made of bronze, the bronze caliper itself is not of high value, and its material and workmanship are very common."

"However, the time of its appearance and the vigorous promotion of the ruler at that time, Wang Mang, attached an indelible mystery to this treasure.

"Such a mysterious image like the overlapping of time and space, and the reversal of time, gives the bronze caliper an unparalleled added value."

"Please host to make the following choices."

"Own a bronze caliper, or exchange for a chance to win a lottery."

At the moment when the system sound is heard.

Chu Yun was extremely shocked.

It can be said that since he went down to Wang Mang's tomb, he never thought that he could find any particularly valuable treasures in it.

The reason why he is willing to come down with the archaeological team is to explore and see how mysterious Wang Mang really is.

After all, two completely different time and space, the tomb of Emperor Yin has refreshed his cognition, and it is normal for Wang Mang's tomb to have some changes.

However, the prompt sound of the system now gave him a great surprise.

It turns out that the system's judgment on treasures is not limited to the level of its own value, but also considers the added value.

And this added value not only includes the precipitation of time, but also covers mystery.

The bronze caliper, that is, the bronze version of the vernier caliper, appeared in the Western Han Dynasty more than two thousand years ago.

It is a measurement tool vigorously promoted by Wang Mang after he came to power.

It is precisely because of the appearance of this thing that the netizens of Daxing ridiculed Wang Mang for traveling through hiding.

Because the vernier caliper is different from ordinary measuring instruments, it is a precision measurement tool, and it was widely used in scientific experiments in modern times.

And Wang Mang directly manifested this thing in the Western Han Dynasty more than 2,000 years ago, and it really cannot but make people suspect that he is really a time traveler.

This is probably what the system calls mystery.

It also adds a very high added value to the rendering of this bronze caliper.

And for the two options given by the system.

Chu Yun chose to redeem the number of lucky draws without hesitation.

This time the choice was even better than last time, Chu Yun didn't even have the slightest hesitation.

After all, the so-called mysterious value does not have much room for research for Chu Yun.

After all, Suihou Pearl is the most precious treasure in the world, a priceless item, even if it is not for sale and placed at home, it will still be refreshing and dazzling.

But this bronze caliper is really not very useful, and it is far inferior to Sui Houzhu for Chu Yun.

He even traded Sui Houzhu for the number of lottery draws, would he let this opportunity go easily?

After all, there are not many times when the system can recognize it and give him a chance to exchange it.

"Ding""!"

"Congratulations to the host for winning three lucky draw opportunities, and now the total number of lucky draws has been seven."

The sound of the system once again lifted Chu Yun's spirits, and there was something hard to conceal in his eyes.

THREE DRAWS!!!

Good guy, a little bit of atmosphere!

At first, I thought that even if I could redeem the number of lucky draws, it would only be once or twice, but I didn't expect this item to be worth three times in the system's waiting list.

This was simply a surprise!

In this way, Chu Yun's accumulative times reached seven times, which means that he is not far from the start of the ten consecutive draws.

Chu Yun, who woke up from the system's broadcast sound, couldn't hear Professor Wen's inquiry.

He immediately walked to Professor Wen's side with steady steps, put on his gloves, and took the bronze caliper from the old professor.

Gently swipe the cursor located in the lower half, and then explained to everyone.

"The upper part has a scale, the lower part is a sliding vernier, and between the two bronze handles on the left, objects can be tightly fitted and clamped.

"Everyone may wish to think about it for a while. In the field of mathematics, is there any tool that is somewhat similar to the bronze vessel in my hand?"

Chu Yun's voice just fell.

Even before Professor Wen and the others thought for a second, a voice from the side broke through the quiet underground palace.

"Vernier Calipers!!!"

Everyone turned their heads instantly.

I saw a relatively young staff member.

Seeing that everyone turned their eyes to him, the staff member wearing glasses shrank back a little shyly.

Then he boldly said: "I major in mathematics. I am mainly responsible for surveying and mapping in the research institute. I often use vernier calipers."

"The upper part has a scale, and the lower part is a movable vernier, and looking at this shape, isn't it a vernier caliper?"

As soon as a word came out, it seemed to set off a stormy sea.

Everyone in the underground palace stared wide-eyed, listening to this answer in disbelief as if a stone broke the sky.

Shock!!!

Vernier caliper?

Maybe people in the world like the people of Jiumen don't know much about such scientific instruments, but knowledgeable experts such as Professor Wen undoubtedly know about it.

yes!

Isn't this thing exactly the same?

Except that the scale is somewhat blurred and the use of materials is relatively crude, there is almost no difference in other aspects.

But the first two problems are just the limitations of the times.

What really shocked everyone happened to be this design principle.

When did vernier calipers appear?

Before the ancient tomb of Wang Mang was excavated, the earliest definition of vernier caliper in surveying was generally believed to be in England hundreds of years ago.

But now the facts are telling them.

This is simply a fallacy!!!

The origin of the vernier caliper is not a foreign country at all, but Xiangguo's own country!

And the time of appearance was at the beginning of the Christian era at the junction of the Han Dynasty, which was more than a thousand years earlier than the appearance of foreign vernier calipers.

Moreover, the prototype of the vernier caliper invented in England hundreds of years ago is almost the same as the one they are holding in their hands in terms of craftsmanship.

This fully shows that the technology of Xia Kingdom in this area is far ahead of foreign countries for more than a thousand years.

This is absolutely an astonishing discovery.

This will rewrite the history of surveying in one fell swoop, and it can definitely be called an epic archaeological discovery.

Shocking emotions instantly flooded everyone's hearts!

This is the historical heritage of the country, the wisdom of the ancestors has been ahead of those foreign countries for thousands of years.

These countries with a short history, compared with the Xia Kingdom, are no different from the fireflies competing with the sun and the moon.

At the same time, a sense of pride also arises spontaneously.

Such a great discovery was made by their archaeological team, which further proves that there is a reason why archaeology is valued.

At least in the area of ​​surveying, didn't they stand up?

Professor Wen and others were extremely excited.

With blazing light in his eyes, he looked at the bronze caliper in Chu Yun's hand.

And at this moment in the live broadcast room, the audience who are always paying attention to the archaeological trends also cheered after experiencing this result.

Everyone is from the Xia Kingdom, so they will naturally cheer and be proud of their country's historical heritage. At this moment, the live broadcast room is full of cheers and cheers.

..." Awesome!!! Our ancestors are awesome, those things that foreigners are complacent about, our ancestors created them more than a thousand years ahead of them.

"This once again proves that we are an ancient civilization, and an irreplaceable country with the longest history!"

"Damn it! I'll start writing a long article right now, and I'll post it on social platforms as soon as I finish. I want to tell everyone the good news as quickly as possible."

"I didn't notice it when I saw it for the first time. As expected, it is Chu Yun who discovered the essence of things at a glance."

"Don't make trouble, appraising treasures is a basic skill necessary for an experienced tomb robber."

"Emperor Chu Tian has made great achievements! I don't know if it will be useful for us to report him as a tomb robber.

"Good guy, you still want to send Chu Yun in, it seems that you are a real fan!"

"Get the bamboo shoots! Other fans are thinking about how to protect their idols, but you are thinking about sending Chu Yun in every day."

"In fact, compared to this, I pay more attention to it. Wang Mang invented the vernier caliper more than two thousand years ago. Isn't he really a time traveler?"

Although everyone present did not pay attention to the barrage in the live broadcast room, almost the same question did emerge in the hearts of Professor Wen and others.

How did Wang Mang invent this thing?

It was the end of the Western Han Dynasty!

Regardless of the technology or the concept, they are actually quite immature. According to the normal development track, there is no condition for inventing the vernier caliper at all.

(Good Nuo Zhao) But it seems like a space-time jump. In the measuring tool, a large distance has been directly crossed.

The technology tree directly grows to the vernier caliper.

This has to make people suspicious.

Is Wang Mang a special person?

Holding the vernier caliper in both hands, Professor Wen said with a slight frown while watching.

"Looking at Wang Mang's life, it can be said to be full of legends."

"Before he took power, he behaved no differently from the general nobles of the Western Han Dynasty.

"But after he became the auxiliary minister and completely manipulated the government, it looked different."

"Deliberate reform, some measures are extremely radical, even surpassing the level that should have been in that era.

"Land reform, slavery, and law, and many other aspects tend to be some modern reforms."

"Now that there is such a vernier caliper, it can be said that it is completely ahead of the times."

"To be honest, I am a bit puzzled by the mystery revealed by this person.

"Could it be that there are people who are born with knowledge?"

As Professor Wen's voice fell.

His assistant said hesitantly: "Professor, there is actually a saying circulating on the Internet that Wang Mang was originally a modern person who traveled through the past."

The assistant's supplement [suddenly made several experts and scholars present dumbfounded.

The atmosphere in the entire underground palace also relaxed.

They will definitely not believe in the so-called time travel theory, no matter how unscientific it is, it is impossible for this kind of space-time paradox to appear.

Interrupted by such a one.

With a smile on his face, Professor Wen put the vernier caliper back into the box, and asked the staff to keep it carefully.

Then he turned his gaze back to the sarcophagus.
