"Are you sure this is the final test result?"
In the Ancient Xianyang Museum, old man Li Yunshan grabbed the report in his hand and raised his head in disbelief.
"What else do you think?"
Opposite him, an old man in a white coat who looked to be in his sixties or seventies took off his glasses tiredly and rubbed his eyes, feeling helpless.
"I'm not telling you, Lao Li, is this really a cultural relic, a pill made by ancient people?"
"Although the instruments and equipment here are limited, generally speaking, the results will not cause too many errors... Let me tell you clearly, there are too many harmful substances mixed in this so-called elixir."
"Many ingredients cannot be identified because it took too long, but some can still be distinguished, such as arsenic and mercury..."
"It doesn't look like something edible at all."
After saying this, the old man turned around and left, leaving only the dull old Li Yunshan behind.
Something you can't eat?
Arsenic?
mercury?
What are these?
Old man Li Yunshan lowered his head and looked at the report in his hand.
Almost immediately after returning from the ancient Xianyang ruins, old man Li Yunshan quickly launched an investigation into the elixir.
In order to perfectly detect the material, he even used his connections to recruit himself, a top contemporary physics professor at Yenching University.
But when he arrived, the results of the test made old Li Yunshan dumbfounded on the spot!
"Grandpa, how are you? Have the test results of the three pills come out?" Ye Qingyao, who was passing by, came forward curiously and asked.
"They're all out."
Old man Li Yunshan smiled bitterly and handed her the test report: "As for the results, you can see for yourself."
After receiving the test report, Ye Qingyao looked at it suspiciously.
But after just browsing for a few seconds, Ye Qingyao's expression changed a little...
"this....."
"Test report, right?"
"Why is the material of this elixir like this?"
"The old man Shangguan from Yanjing University took the test, can you tell me whether it's accurate?" Old man Li Yunshan rubbed his eyebrows vigorously, and felt helpless.
In fact, no wonder Ye Qingyao questioned it!
Because the material on this test report is really outrageous!
After testing, it was found that in addition to a large amount of charcoal, the ingredients of these three elixirs were also mixed with a lot of harmful substances!
Although these two elixirs have been around for so long that most of the materials cannot be identified, there are still many things that can be determined!
Among them, the most abundant ones are mercury and arsenic! !
That’s outrageous!
Is this really a pill?
Even if the ancient people had no common sense, they would not put arsenic and mercury in the alchemy furnace to make elixirs like crazy!
It’s not even just the three elixirs placed in the white jade plate!
Even after the elixirs dug out in the mountains and hidden in jade boxes were opened, the ingredients detected were not much different from these three!
All are mixed and disordered medicinal materials!
Looking at the test report in his hand, Ye Qingyao's face turned ugly.
Is this an elixir?
It would be more appropriate to say it is Poison Pill!
After eating it, I went to heaven on the spot!
"What's going on?"
What was the First Emperor doing?
Is this really the elixir built by the First Emperor before he ascended the throne?
Before that, Ye Qingyao actually somewhat believed in the things recorded on the jade tablet.
But now, she has become more and more suspicious!
I just feel a big headache!
Even if you had no common sense, you wouldn't use so many toxic materials to build an elixir, right?
That is the future emperor of the ages!
"Not only that, Lao Lu and the others have been to the Yanjing Museum and the Magic City Museum in the past few days, and have read through many ancient books and history books... but they have not found any records about this period of time."
Old man Li Yunshan sighed and replied.
"There is no... any record?" Ye Qingyao's beautiful eyes widened, and then like a deflated rubber ball, he was a little lost: "How could this be?"
"If it hadn't been left by the First Emperor before he ascended the throne, who would have left so many relics more than two thousand years ago?"
In fact, it’s not just old man Li Yunshan and Ye Qingyao!
In the past few days, almost all the archaeologists and experts in various subjects who participated in the investigation of the two ruins in ancient Xianyang have become numb!
Because they discovered that some things in this ruins were a little abnormal!
Just like the three pills stored in the huge pill furnace, regardless of their material composition, how can they still maintain their original appearance after more than two thousand years?
You must know that the caves have been broken, even the hard bronze is rotting, and the rocks are weathered, and why can these pills remain in this state?
Although it is gray and uneven... there is no trace of corrosion!
There are also many things recorded on those jade slips and stone tablets!
Many archaeologists have searched through various rare ancient books of the Qin Dynasty, but there is no record of this period!
In just a few days, many archaeologists have looked through so many rare books that their eyes have turned into pandas, but they still haven't found any traces!
The most important thing now is to find out whether it is related to the First Emperor!
History is rigorous. If they cannot find enough evidence, even if they excavate cultural relics, they cannot be sure that these are the remains of the First Emperor!
And what has caused many archaeologists a headache recently is that not only the origin of the cultural relics cannot be proven, but also since the relics of the alchemy ceremony were brought back to the museum, there seem to be more animals around!
All kinds of stray cats, stray dogs, insects, mice, and even birds are always around!
Biologists arrived and searched several times, but could not find the cause.
In addition, professional biologists also investigated the incident when he was attacked by many animals when he returned from the dense forest.
As a result, when they went there, they found nothing at all, let alone a clouded leopard, not even a moon bear. The only ones they could see were a few wild boars...
In the end, I could only write it down for now and let it go.
In addition, after bringing back the elixir, old man Li Yunshan and others finally had time to fully study Ding Qin Jian.
It doesn't matter if you don't study it. Once you study it, you will find that the Ding Qin Sword is even weirder!
In order to identify its materials, old man Li Yunshan even invited a professional chemist, and the identified ingredients turned out to be ordinary ancient weapons!
Iron, tin, copper, lead, and trace amounts of nickel, magnesium, aluminum, zinc, silicon, manganese, titanium and other elements....
It seems to be mixed with some meteorite.
Other than that, nothing unusual at all.
"But why has it remained so immortal for thousands of years and so sharp?"
Countless archaeologists have been unable to find a suitable scientific explanation for all this.
The reason why the Yue King Goujian Sword has remained immortal for thousands of years is because the blade of the sword has been vulcanized, and the copper used is of excellent quality with very few impurities. It is made with excellent craftsmanship and was protected by a scabbard when it was unearthed.
The external reason is also that the tomb environment is good. Several other bronze swords that were almost not rusted were also unearthed from the same tomb.
But now, what happened to this Ding Qin sword?
According to Tang Yuer's account, the sword was buried in the soil when it was discovered, and was washed out by rain.
In this environment, it is destined to be extremely humid. How does it maintain its immortality for thousands of years?
After so many years, the body of the sword is still as clean as new. It is no exaggeration to say that the hair has been blown off!
If it hadn't been excavated from ancient ruins, and the pattern and craftsmanship were quite complex, they would have thought it was a modern imitation!
When Ye Qingyao and old man Li Yunshan brought the appraisal report back, everyone laughed bitterly when they saw all this.
"It's obviously an ordinary material, but it can remain immortal for thousands of years and be so sharp..."
"And this elixir has not decayed after countless years..."
"Is it because of the forging and refining skills?"
"But what kind of skills can turn decay into magic? I have begun to doubt the authenticity of the records on the stone tablet. Maybe it is not impossible that there were practitioners and Qi refiners in ancient times."
