In the narrow and dark east chamber of the coffin, under the bright flashlight, the box of gold cakes shimmered in front of me.
At this moment, in addition to the joy of getting rich, I also have two fears.
"Bear?"
"Why are these gold cakes engraved with the word "bear"? So the tomb owner's surname is Xiong?"
"Xiong family, Chu Xiong family?"
"Oh my god...which king of Chu is that! All of them have their names in the history books! King Chu You! King Chu Xiang! Wait, etc."
No one would believe it if I told you, how could a certain king of the Chu Kingdom be buried in a small place like Qiyang! Who is he?
But if there really was a king named Xiong from Chu State, why wasn't there a seal on this big tomb? Why didn’t I see any burial pits for carriages and horses? Why didn’t I see the Nine Cauldrons and Eight Gui appear? This is the standard equipment of the king. Let alone the nine tripods and eight guis, I haven’t even seen one tripod or one gui!
Could it be that the Nine Cauldrons and Eight Gui are hidden in other rooms?
Not sure...but one thing is certain! The owner of this large tomb must have been buried in a hurry. The lack of a rammed earth layer may be due to lack of time, and the lack of a sealed earth mound may be because the people at that time wanted to hide some secrets.
I was extremely nervous at the moment.
I looked at the time and saw that it was 3:50 in the middle of the night. There was definitely not enough time. At most, it would be dawn after cleaning the compartment. At that moment, I speeded up and put the material bag on the rotten lacquer box, along with the gold cakes. Dao Duan went out, and then I touched several pieces of fine jade, including jade walls engraved with Chilong patterns, jade rings, jade sword grids, and most importantly, I touched a portable seal the size of an egg, which was too rusty. The handwriting on the seal was hard to see clearly. After taking the things, I didn't dare to stay any longer and immediately crawled back.
When I climbed to the entrance of the cave, I reached up and Brother Yu pulled me up.
Seeing me coming out, Dou Sprout immediately covered his nose and said, "Fengzi! You look like you fell into a latrine! It really stinks!"
Indeed, I am now covered in thousand-year-old mud, all over my body, clothes, and face, and it also exudes a sour smell.
He nodded and said, "It's timed out. It's going to be dawn soon. I have to go back before five o'clock. Pack your things quickly and come down in the evening."
A group of us hurriedly packed up the loot and covered up the robbery hole. After going out, one of us carried a sack and threw it on the three-wheeled motorcycle. The intercom called Xiaoxuan, who was still watching, and we went back together.
When we got home at half past five, we piled all kinds of funerary objects on the ground, with our heads and brows furrowed. Brother Yu was calm, Douyazai and Xiaoxuan were happy. As for me... I can’t tell how I feel now.
Windfall, this is windfall!
I originally wanted to get a copper pot and tripod, but who would have thought that I would accidentally stumble upon so many valuable things! Especially the Bronze Forbidden. This thing is now lying on the ground and covered with a sheet. I don’t dare to open it and look at it! It felt like I was in a dream.
Bean Sprouts, Ma Daha, he doesn’t understand the importance of this thing at all. Let’s put it this way, if the relevant departments now know that there is a Warring States Bronze Forbidden in Qiyang, then our group will be in danger.
He raised his head and took a puff of cigarette, frowned and said: "Everyone should be stricter. From now on, no one should take the initiative to mention this matter to the outside world. Once the order is done, I will have no worries about food and clothing for twenty years. If I can't do it, good......"
We haven't finished the first part, but we know very well that if we don't do it well, we won't have to worry about food and clothing for twenty years.
Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are in heaven, this is the fate of us people.
Afraid?
If it doesn't exist, I'll be afraid of it for five minutes at most.
I carefully rinsed the quick white jade seal with water, and then I could see clearly the words on it, two words
"Zhang Xun".
The portable seal is equivalent to the identity card of the tomb owner, Zhang Xun? I haven't heard of this person at all. Shouldn't his surname be Xiong?
That’s not all yet. We locked the door in the morning, boiled a large pot of water in the courtyard, and treated these heavily rusted bronzes with a greening method. As a result, we found another two-character inscription on a bronze cup.
This new discovery of inscriptions is groundbreaking! Even my head was shocked.
The two gilt inscriptions on the cup are clearly...
"Old cud!"
The king of Chu lost the cud, and Xiong's name was the cud! The king of Chu in the middle and late Warring States Period! The son of the famous King Chu Kaolie!
