Gao Shou raised his arm and picked up Yan Jiu and Huo Qingyi one by one. Then, he started to look around.
If one had to use a word to describe it, it would be extremely simple. There was a coffin in the middle, and the surrounding walls were painted with murals. Other than that, there seemed to be nothing else.
"Boss, the coffin is right there. Are we going there now?”Yan Jiu stared at the coffin in the middle of the room and said to Gao Shou.
Although this was Yan Jiu's first time entering a tomb and he did not know much about this industry, Yan Jiu knew that the truly good things were all placed in the coffin of the tomb owner. Any one of the things placed inside would be priceless.
"Don't move! It's a little strange." Gao Shou stretched out his arm and stopped Yan Jiu, who was eager to try. Then, he observed his surroundings. It seemed that there was no place that could be used as a mechanism, let alone other passages. He couldn't help but ask curiously,"This seems a little too concise."
"There is indeed a little, but it is a tomb from the Northern Song Dynasty after all. It is said to be the most important in the East. Moreover, this is only the tomb of a deputy general. Although it may be the deputy general of General Yue, the Yue Family Army can be called the New Fourth Army in ancient times. If that was the case, it was already not bad to have such a tomb.”
Huo Qingyi rubbed her chin and pondered for a while before walking towards the walls.
"Hey, Mr. Hunt, be careful of the organization!”Seeing Huo Qingyi walk away without any protection, Yan Jiu couldn't help but stop her with concern.
Although he didn't know much, after Gao Shou's brainwashing these days, although he didn't know how much he had heard, at least he had heard the horror in the tomb. This was also why it could control its greed and open the coffin without thinking about anything.
"It's fine. This is the first time I've seen such a simple tomb. If there's a place in this tomb that can be used as a trap, it's probably that coffin.”Gao Shou shook his head and said.
He had observed for a while just now. This was indeed the first time he had seen such a tomb in his life.
In ancient times, the dead would either be buried in a random pit or built an underground palace. The only thing Gao Shou could think of was the secret in the tomb mentioned by the system.
As he thought about it, Gao Shou walked to Huo Qingyi's side and looked at the mural on the wall. He turned around and said to Huo Qingyi,""Scholar, do you know what these paintings are about?”
Huo Qingyi looked at the mural for a while before she slowly said," If I'm not wrong, this should be a record of General Yue and why the owner of the tomb was here.”
"The first painting should be about a person standing behind a general, examining the three armies, and then going out to defeat the enemy. Wherever the army went, the enemy retreated step by step. This general led the army to recover many cities. Based on the appearance of the weapons and armor of the enemy, these troops should be the Jin soldiers. And this general should be General Yue Fei Yue. The person standing next to General Yue should be General Yue's deputy, which meant that he was the owner of this tomb.”
Huo Qingyi walked towards the second mural.
"Just as the general led the army and was about to defeat the enemy again and recover all the lost territory, he was summoned back by the emperor and his military power was confiscated. And the painting next to it had a dangerous little person whispering something into the Emperor's ear. This should be Qin Hui, who framed General Yue Fei and imprisoned him in history. Immediately after, there was a drawing below. This small person had once again arrived at the Jin people's tent and bent his knees. Meanwhile, the people inside the Jin people's tent were laughing loudly. This should be the Shaoxing Peace Conference in history.”
After Huo Qingyi finished speaking, Gao Shou clenched his fists tightly. It wasn't just Gao Shou, Yan Jiu and Huo Qingyi's faces were ashen as well.
Gao Shou remembered very clearly that the peace negotiations in Shaoxing were actually just like cutting meat to feed the wolves. From the Song Dynasty to the Jin Dynasty, all the land above the Huaihe River was ceded to the Jin Dynasty, and 250,000 bolts of silver silk were offered to the Jin Dynasty every year.
From then on, the Song Dynasty could no longer compete with the Jin Dynasty. Even if Yue Fei came out of the mountain again, it would not do.
Huo Qingyi's face was ashen as she walked towards the next mural.
"And this painting says that after General Yue Fei returned to the capital, he was imprisoned. The little man appeared again. This time, he took a whip and other torture tools to whip General Yue Fei, but General Yue Fei had a firm appearance and did not have the intention of lowering his head. The next painting depicted General Yue Fei's tragic death in the Supreme Court.”
"And below it is written the words of the Song Dynasty, which should be the final words of Yue Fei's confession before his death.”
"The sun is shining, the sun is shining!"
Hearing this, Gao Shou couldn't help but lower his head. After a long time, he calmed down his turbulent heart. He then raised his head and said to Huo Qingyi,""There are records in these history books. Could it be that all the murals are painted like this? If that was the case, there was no need to continue reading, right?”
"Then, after General Yue Fei was killed, a jailer named Kui Shun took the risk to steal Yue Fei's body. Then, he carried it out of Hangzhou City and buried it beside the Jiuqu Temple outside Qiantang Gate. The jailer named Kui Shun told his son about this before he died. It was only after Song Xiaozong ascended the throne that Yue Fei was rehabilitated. Kui Shun's son told the emperor about the past, and Emperor Xiaozong of Song changed Fei's burial to Xixia Ridge in West Lake. Later, the Song court posthumously gave Yue Fei the posthumous title of "Wu Mu". When Song Ningzong was posthumous, he was granted the title of King of E. When Li Zong was posthumous, he changed his posthumous title to Zhongwu. Is it these?"
"But this shouldn't be General Yue Fei's tomb, right? After all, let's not talk about why General Yue's tomb would be here. Just the information we learned before clearly stated that this should be the tomb of one of his deputy generals, right?”
After hearing Gao Shou's words, Huo Qingyi didn't continue to walk back. After she saw a painting, she stopped and said,""What you're talking about is indeed recorded in the history books, but look at this painting.”
Gao Shou frowned and then walked forward, wondering if there was anything else that he didn't know about in the history books.
