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

Chapter 88 The true identity of the statue, everyone suddenly realized! 【Big chapter for subscription】

"Professor beware!!!"

"Lie down!"

In the face of such emergencies, the archaeological team actually had some experience in dealing with them.

If they were not familiar with this kind of strange mechanism and trap before exploring the ancient tomb before the Yin Emperor's tomb, now they have experienced two or three consecutive experience in the ancient tomb, and they already have a certain ability to adapt.

Therefore, at the moment when there was a strange noise and Professor Wen fell backwards, the few people standing closest to him all rushed over.

At the same time, he exclaimed loudly, telling Professor Wen to lie down quickly.

After all, there is a high probability that the sudden dull sound like that just now was triggered by a mechanism, and there may be a crossbow shooting.

Therefore, it is the most sensible choice to lie down and get away from the position where you just raised your toes to trigger the mechanism.

As Professor Wen lay down on the ground, several staff members around him rushed forward and dragged the old comrade aside.

The big guys all stared intently at the green brick under the stone statue in a posture of whole-body alertness, and the guns and explosion-proof shields in the hands of several soldiers were raised, ready to

Prepare to defend.

However, after a muffled bang.

There were no hidden arrows flying out from any mechanism, but a sound similar to that of blue bricks rubbing against each other echoed in everyone's ears.

"boom!"

It seems that the masonry has moved to the end.

With a slight roar, the entire tomb returned to silence, only the members of the archaeological team were left looking at each other, not daring to take it lightly.

After waiting again and again to confirm that there were no traps, the big guy hurriedly helped Professor Wen who was lying on the ground up.

Speaking of which, this old comrade's body is indeed relatively tough, he doesn't look like an old professor in his seventies.

Although the movement of lying on the ground just now was not small, and it seemed that he must have suffered some minor injuries, but at this moment the old professor was still full of energy and did not have any serious reactions.

It seems that the experience of many years of archaeological exploration has given Professor Wen a relatively strong physique.

And after being helped up by the staff.

Professor Wen didn't approach the place where he was standing for the first time, but said to the people who were paying attention to him.

"I was standing there just now, originally I wanted to touch the armor of this stone statue, but because of the height difference, I just tapped my feet.

"I didn't expect that at the moment when I stood on tiptoe, the blue brick that I was standing on under my feet suddenly sank downward."

"I couldn't stand for a while, and then I fell backwards."

Professor Wen's explanation made everyone understand why he had such a reaction before.

But at the same time, it also aroused everyone's interest in the blue brick that was sunken just now.

Therefore, there is no need for Professor Wen to say more.

Several experts and scholars, as well as several soldiers in charge of protection, carefully moved forward a few steps, approaching the foot of the giant statue.

really.

The blue brick and stone floor, which was originally extremely flat and well-proportioned, has now been sunken in its entirety.

And it seems that this sunken blue brick touched some mechanisms, causing the bricks on the left and right sides to move together.

At the moment, at the foot of the several-meter-high statue, what appeared before everyone's eyes was a pothole that wasn't too deep, but not small in size.

To say it is a pothole is actually a bit exaggerated.

In nature, it is more similar to the dark space.

It is the kind of hidden compartment at the head of the bed or in the basement that is often seen in TV dramas, used to hide things.

Facts have also proved that this device is for hiding things, because as everyone approached, under the light of the light, several things just lay quietly in the dark compartment.

Objects on the left and right are best identified.

Because these two things are very large in size.

Professor Wen just took a closer look, and concluded very firmly: "Short halberd!"

After the big guys heard these two words, they gathered around one after another.

Professor Wen explained in detail: "Look at the shapes of the left and right objects. There is a long wooden handle in the middle, and there are crescent-shaped cutting edges on the left and right upper ends, and the top of the long handle is more

tower,

"From this shape, it can be concluded that this object is a relatively well-known weapon, which is the short halberd I just mentioned."

"This is a well-known weapon in the Han Dynasty, but it is not popular. There are not many generals and commanders who use this weapon."

Having said that, everyone nodded.

Although Professor Wen is a great scholar in the academic world, he is also the one who has the deepest study of history and the most knowledgeable among all the people present, but the others are equally knowledgeable.

So when Professor Wen said it, they understood.

Halberd, this is one of the eighteen traditional weapons of the Xia Kingdom. Compared with swords, it is not highly used, but it has a very high reputation in the hands of certain people.

For example, Fang Tian's painted halberd in the four famous books, and the single-sided halberd used by many generals described in the book, are the same type of weapon as the short halberd in this dark cell.

After confirming the nature of this thing.

The faces of several experts were full of excited expressions, and everyone could see their excitement.

Among them, Professor Wen ran to the side of one of the short halberds in two or three steps, and then roughly drew the length and width with both hands.

Then very carefully, he took his knuckles and tapped lightly on the crescent blade of the short halberd.

He also held the wooden handle of the short halberd, trying to lift it up, but it took a lot of effort, but he could only move it slightly.

From this aspect alone, it can be highlighted that the weight of these two short halberds may be extraordinary.

"Hiss......... Phoo..."

Gently put the wooden handle back on the ground, Professor Wen stood up and shook his arms.

Just one or two forceful blows just now made him feel a little sore in his arms.

After taking two deep breaths, Professor Wen said to everyone with some emotion.

"Actually, when I saw these two short halberds, I even suspected that they were long halberds, because these two weapons were too long, and some of them exceeded the specifications."

"However, considering the left and right widths of these two halberds, it is inappropriate to say that they are long halberds, so I decided that these two weapons are simply relatively large short halberds.

"I tried it just now, and with all my strength, I could only lift the wooden handle and pull it up a little bit. If I want to hold the weapon completely in my hand, I'm afraid I can't do it.

"Although I haven't measured it carefully, I estimate that these two short halberds add up to two hundred catties."

"However, it is more than enough to match this statue, and it is quite suitable."

Professor Wen just finished speaking.

Immediately, a staff member came up from the side, first measured the diameter of the wooden handle of the short halberd with the instrument in his hand, and then roughly measured the hollow of the statue's hands.

Then he took two pieces of data and said to several experts: "Professors, we have just roughly measured the diameter of the wooden handle of the short halberd and the hollow diameter of the statue's hands. They are almost perfectly matched, and the error is very small."

"If we infer from this data alone, then these two short halberds should be the weapons used by the statue."

Professor Wen nodded.

Then he turned around and faced the crowd.

"Everyone, now we have another important piece of information, that is, the character depicted in this statue, the weapon he uses is a two-handed short halberd."

"If you start from this angle, you may be able to guess the identity of this character."

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a general who used two-handed short halberds.

Moreover, it must belong to Cao Wei's side, and has a very close relationship with Cao Cao himself. Looking at the shape and appearance of this portrait, one can feel an extremely majestic aura.

Combining these information, the answer is already ready to come out.

"Dian Wei!"

"This statue is Dian Wei!"

A sudden voice brought everyone out of their contemplation.

It was Chu Yun who spoke.

In fact, Chu Yun had already guessed when he saw the two short halberds in the dark cell.

According to historical records, it seems that except for the fierce general Dian Wei who died to save Cao Cao in the Battle of Wancheng, no one seems to meet this condition.

So when everyone turned their heads to look at him.

Chu Yun simply walked up to Professor Wen, and then explained while gesticulating: "Whether it is history books or some unofficial texts, there are records that Dian Wei used two-handed short halberds."

"And in Cao Cao's disastrous defeat in the battle of Wancheng, it was because people under Zhang Xiu's faction stole Dianwei's short halberds while he was drunk."

"So that Cao Cao's number one fierce general died in a fierce battle without a weapon in his hand. This is also regarded by Cao Cao as the greatest regret in his life."

"I don't know if you still remember the tomb we passed before, there was a whole wall of murals there, and one of them was the Battle of Wancheng.

"If you have the data captured by your mobile phone, you might as well take it out and compare it to see if the appearance of this statue is the same as Dian Wei in the mural."

In fact, no verification is required.

After Chu Yun categorically gave the conclusion that this person is Dian Wei, everyone has already chosen to believe it.

Because they think so too.

Can be qualified to be listed in Cao Cao's tomb, enjoy a tomb alone, and use two-handed short halberds, except for Dian Wei, I really can't think of anyone else.

But even so.

Still, a professor hurriedly took out his mobile phone, found the mural he had taken before, and then moved a little away from the statue, and then took out the two images for comparison.

Only ten seconds later.

The professor said loudly to the crowd: "There is a great similarity, and it can basically be concluded that this statue is Dian Wei!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was immediately refreshed.

For the archaeological team, they have obtained another important information.

Since this statue is Dian Wei, his statue was placed in Cao Cao's tomb, and he enjoyed a separate tomb room, and it was in a relatively rear position, which can explain a lot of information.

And it's not over yet.

Because there are not only two weapons in the dark compartment.

In addition to two short halberds, one on the left and one on the right, there is also a roll of cloth in the center.

Under Professor Wen's command, several researchers carefully carried out the roll of cloth together.

Just from the appearance, this roll of cloth is a bit like a scroll, the whole body is white, and the outermost circle is inlaid with gold thread.

Putting the scroll on the tray, Professor Wen unfolded it gently.

Then a line of official script characters appeared.

For the study of such ancient text content, Professor Wen can be said to be an old expert.

So with just a glance, Professor Wen read out the building of this line of text.

"Gu was ashamed of Dian Wei in 657 years of his life, Zixiu, and now Zixiu was buried with his mother, so Dianwei was buried in Gu's tomb."

It's that simple.

For everyone, it can be said to be quite understandable.

Zixiu is the name of Cao Cao's eldest son, Cao Ang, who also died in the Battle of Wancheng. Like Dian Wei, he fought to save Cao Cao to the death.

Cao Cao said that he was ashamed of these two people in his life, but there was nothing wrong with it.

After Professor Wen finished reading this sentence.

Straightening up, he turned around and said to everyone: "Looking at the words and expressions on this scroll, it should be Cao Cao's will when he was dying.

"For Cao Ang and Dian Wei, Cao Cao felt guilty, and because his original wife, Mrs. Ding, regarded Cao Ang as his own, Cao Mengde, who also had regrets for Mrs. Ding, took Cao Ang as his own.

He was buried with Mrs. Ding.

"As for Dian Wei, he chose to be buried in his own tomb in the form of such a statue, so as to appease the guilt in his heart."

Listening to Professor Wen's explanation.

Chu Yun looked up at such a four-meter-high statue, and said with emotion and doubt.

"Professors, tell me why Cao Cao didn't choose to bury Dian Wei's body, but made such a statue instead.

"Could it be that Dian Wei's body was destroyed in the battle of Wancheng, or has it been lost?"

Suddenly I heard Chu Yun's question.

Everyone, including Professor Wen, was taken aback for a moment.

Immediately there was another burst of bewilderment.

Not to mention, every time Chu Yun asked a question, he was able to ask the key points. As soon as this question was thrown out, everyone fell into thinking again.

Professor Wen looked at the scrolls in the tray, scratched his chin, and muttered thoughtfully.

"It's kind of weird."

"It stands to reason that for a person like Dian Wei, since Cao Cao felt guilty and wanted him to be buried, the first choice would be to bury Dian Wei's body in a coffin to accompany him.

He sleeps underground together forever. "

"Even if Cao Cao was defeated in the Battle of Wancheng and Dian Wei's body could not be found, then a Clothes Tomb should be set up."

"Building such a huge statue is really not in line with common sense."

Everyone pondered this question for a long time but couldn't figure it out.

Therefore, it can only be recorded for the time being, as a doubt, to wait for the next exploration, or to investigate further after returning to the ground.

Let the staff seal the scroll and save it.

Professor Wen looked at the hidden compartment with nothing else and the still standing statue, and slapped everyone.

"Old Liu, you guys should do some more research, I'll go over there to have a look at that stone door, and figure out what mechanism is there to open it.

However, at this moment.

Sudden mutation!!!
