Cover it with several layers of linen and pay more attention to it than those gold ingots. Li Mo and Chen Xiaojun each stood in a position and stretched out their hands to carefully uncover the linen cloth. However, with a little force, the linen cloth fell into pieces and had completely decayed after more than a hundred years.
"Xiaojun, come here with some sticks and let's pick them apart."
"good."
Soon Chen Xiaojun found five long sticks and called Zheng Bin and others over. The staff who were cleaning the weapons stopped what they were doing, and the cameraman also walked over to Li Mo and started taking pictures.
"Let's all start together."
Five people stood in different positions and started to lift several layers of linen with sticks. Under the bright searchlight, a bright golden light suddenly came into everyone's eyes.
Those golden reflections made everyone close their eyes subconsciously. After gradually adapting, everyone exclaimed.
The small part that was exposed was a strip-shaped table in the style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. On the table were placed the Four Treasures of the Study and a few books.
Li Mo walked to the long table and smelled the rich aroma. He shined a light with his portable flashlight and found that the main body of this strip-shaped table was actually made of golden nanmu. After being covered with linen cloth for so long, the small space was filled with the aroma of nanmu, so the fragrance was strong when it was uncovered.
At the same time, this golden nanmu table is also wrapped with a large amount of gold inlays, and each of the four table legs is wrapped with a golden dragon. The golden dragon has five claws, vivid dragon scales on its body, a huge head, and looks forward to it. The dragons each held a huge pearl in their mouths. It had been a while, and the surface of the pearls was slightly gray.
The four corners of the table are covered with gold sheets, and the surface is engraved with giant dragons and auspicious clouds flying in the sky.
His eyes came to the four treasures of the study and the books on the table.
Every page of the book is made of gold sheets, and the large characters engraved on the cover of the front page are: Original Dao Salvation Song.
What follows is of course the detailed content of Song of Salvation, a religious propaganda work written by Hong Xiuquan, the King of Heaven.
The cover of another golden book is engraved with: The Tianchao Land Acquisition System, which was a policy program promulgated by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom after it established its capital in Tianjing.
Li Mo didn't read the contents in detail. He carefully closed the golden book and looked at the four treasures of the study. The inkstone and brush were all wrapped in gold foil, with five-clawed golden dragons engraved on the surface. As for the paper, it was a piece of thin gold paper without any carvings on it. They were all placed in a lidless wooden box made of golden nanmu.
Looking at the scene in front of them, everyone didn't even dare to take a breath. This is just a small part of the story, and it turns out that such an important national treasure has been born.
In the Qing Dynasty, only the emperor was qualified to use the five-clawed dragon, followed by four-clawed, three-clawed, etc., which represented the status of the prince, prince, etc. Shi Dakai actually hid such a five-clawed golden dragon table and the four treasures of the study in this huge treasure cave. This is the rhythm of his desire to ascend the throne as the emperor.
The uprising has not yet won the final victory, and the country is still uncertain, but preparations for ascending to the throne have been made in advance, which shows the great ambition.
"Teacher Li, should we continue to uncover the remaining linen coverings?" Zheng Bin came back to his senses and asked softly. He even thought about whether he could still see dragon chairs and the like in the future, and even find things like Shangfang swords, jade seals, etc. used by the emperors of the Qing Dynasty.
Everyone looked at Li Mo, he was the biggest here.
"Reveal."
Several people more carefully removed the linen cloth, and then a total of four thick pillars appeared. Both ends of each pillar were placed on high rocks, and the middle part was suspended in the air.
Li Mo made a visual inspection and found that each pillar was about three meters long. This was not the most shocking thing. When they appeared, everyone's eyes were attracted by the golden dragons circling up on the four pillars. .
You read that right, four huge and majestic golden dragons are cast on the four golden nanmu pillars. The dragon raised its head and opened its huge mouth, as if full of invincible domineering power to engulf the world.
Gulu gulu, even Li Mo swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva involuntarily. There were many treasures in his hands, but none of them could bring him such a shock.
"Everyone, stop being stunned and remove all the remaining linen in one go."
Several people took a deep breath and moved faster. Soon the linen cloth was uncovered and thrown aside, and everything hidden underneath was exposed to everyone's eyes.
There is a stone platform that is much higher in the middle, and a golden dragon chair sits quietly on the stone platform.
The main structure of the dragon chair is still made of golden nanmu, but the ends of the two armrests are two dragon heads. When people sit on it, their hands can just hold the dragon heads. A five-clawed golden dragon is also cast on the back of the chair. A huge dragon head emerges from the back, and the dragon's eyes look straight ahead, giving people the same powerful aura and pressure.
At the same time, the exposed nanmu part of the dragon chair is regularly inlaid with precious rubies, sapphires, and purple sapphires. The number of various gemstones alone is probably more than two hundred.
This gold dragon chair inlaid with gems can be called the best dragon chair in the world, although it has never been sat on by a real emperor.
These are the most important treasures in Shi Dakai's treasure trove.
It's really incredible. Once such a treasure appears, the whole world will explode.
Li Mo's eyes shifted from the dragon chair to other things. There were also nanmu five-clawed golden dragon stools, nine in total.
There was a circle of people around, and under the strong searchlight, the golden light shone in all directions, reflecting on everyone's face, showing a look of obsession.
Li Mo coughed lightly, causing everyone who was watching to come back to their senses one by one.
"Teacher Li, have we seen a miracle?" a staff member said excitedly, and then couldn't help but jump up and cheer. This contagiousness soon caused others to shout too, and everyone was venting the surging emotions in their bodies.
Li Mo had a smile on his face. These are the most essential parts of Shi Dakai's treasure, which are enough to be passed down through history and allow historians to conduct deeper research on the history of the peasant uprising during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
"Everyone, please be quiet and let me say a few words."
Li Mo raised his hand and shouted a few words.
Everyone gradually became quiet and looked at him, wanting to hear what he had to say.
"The excavation of the Shidakai treasure has successfully progressed to the final stage. Everyone here is a major contributor. When the country holds a press conference, I will propose that everyone be invited to the press conference."
This is to give them glory and substantial benefits.
"Teacher Li, you are so handsome."
A female teacher in her twenties shouted excitedly.
"I love you."
"we love you too."
A group of irritated old men shouted, which made Li Mo have to smile.
"Okay, let's continue working."
Li Mo took out his mobile phone and took more than 20 photos from different angles. Then he walked to the entrance of the cave. The heavy rain outside had changed and it was expected to stop in a while.
There is no signal at the bottom of the valley. It seems that the only way to go up is to contact Professor Zhu Changping and the other three. He will notify him of the discovery here as soon as possible, and then ask Shibin to arrange for fully armed people to come down to guard the treasure cave.
The most important thing is that he is thinking about how to transport the dragon chair, dragon pillar, dragon stool and dragon table intact.
"Uncle Junior, I came at the right time. I witnessed the birth of history with my own eyes for the first time."
Chen Xiaojun walked to Li Mo and said happily that this scene was the second time for him. The first time was the birth of the treasure of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.
"When those few things are shipped out, you personally lead the people and immediately charter a plane to escort them back to Kyoto."
"yes."
