Nine Dragons Coffin Pulling! Wasn't that written in Chu Yunshu's book? The new book asks for everything
Parallel World.
Gan Province, China.
In an underground tomb in the northwest desert of Linning City, it was brightly lit. Many national archaeological team members were traveling between the ground and the underground.
This was an underground ancient tomb that had been accidentally discovered a few days ago. After preliminary exploration, it was confirmed to be a large-scale tomb group that occupied a large area.
After the Chinese government received the news, they immediately dispatched a large number of people and organized some experts and scholars from the archaeological world to explore and excavate.
After a few days of archaeological research, they had almost figured out the situation.
At this moment, in a side hall of the ancient tomb, a few experts and scholars of different ages, with an average age of over 60, were gathered together. They were discussing a pile of artifacts that had just been brought out of the coffin in the side hall.
Beside this group of experts and scholars was a precision camera that was running at high speed to transmit the scene here to the live broadcast room.
Livestreaming archaeology was a popular form of activity in recent years. It was to allow everyone to participate and become interested in the history of their country.
As an ancient civilization, Xia Country had an extremely long history and a vast heritage of civilization.
Unfortunately, as time passed, a large amount of history was lost, creating a blank space and even a broken era.
This was also the fundamental reason why China had large-scale archaeology in recent years and allowed the entire population to participate.
……
As the staff carefully moved out a size but exquisite porcelain vase from the coffin, several archaeologists surrounded it.
Porcelains were often the best evidence of the age of the tomb and the general identity of the tomb owner.
He put on his gloves and took the vase from the staff. The leading professor looked through it carefully with a cold light.
Then, he turned around and nodded to the others."The earth vein is fine and moist, the body is thin and green, with a slight pink color, and the shades are different.”
"Basically, we can conclude that this is a work from the Northern Song Dynasty.”
The experts and scholars present were all experts in the field of archaeology. They had decades of experience. Antiques like porcelain vases, which were relatively easy to identify, could basically be identified at a glance.
Therefore, no one doubted this judgment.
A professor next to him said,""Professor Wen, does that mean that we can already make a judgment?”
Professor Wen nodded. He then held the vase and faced the camera as he spoke to the people in the live broadcast room.
"Everyone in the live broadcast room, look at the vase in my arms. After our appraisal, we determined that this was porcelain produced in the official kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty.”
"Therefore, the identity of the tomb owner of this side hall is roughly between the Song Dynasty and the Song Dynasty.”
"The identity of the owner of this burial tomb should be a general from the Xixia period.”
……
As soon as Professor Wen finished speaking, the already lively live broadcast room was flooded with bullet comments.
"Sure. If it really is a Xixia tomb group, then the archaeological value of this time is too great. There are some missing records of Xixia in our history.”
"I told you this was a Xixia tomb complex.”
"The previous poster is still pretending to be a prophet after the fact.”
"Speaking of which, this vase is really beautiful. This is something from more than a thousand years ago. Whether it's color or texture, it's completely better than the modern crafts I bought. I really want to have one at home.”
"It's at home…Why don't you understand the sentence of ten years?”
"Actually, I have a question. This is just a side hall of the entire tomb group, and it already has a Xixia general buried here.”
Perhaps it was because he saw the last bullet comment, Professor Wen's expression changed and he nodded slightly.
"That's right. This is only a burial hall. If a general of the Western Xia Kingdom can be buried with him, I can make a bold guess about the identity of the tomb's owner. It's very likely that he's an emperor of the Western Xia Kingdom.”
An emperor-grade tomb group was worlds apart from a non-imperial-grade tomb group. The significance they represented was completely different.
If it was really an imperial grade, it would add an important stroke to the history of China. This would definitely be a new chapter in archaeological research.
Therefore, just as Professor Wen finished speaking, the live broadcast room exploded.
"Awesome, awesome! Sure enough, watching the live broadcast is good for eating."
"F * ck! The Emperor of Xixia, brothers, is on fire!”
"As far as I know, this seems to be the first time we've discovered a Xixia imperial tomb, right?”
"Replying to the previous poster, let alone the emperor, this is the first time that a tomb of Xixia has been discovered.”
"Impressive! Professor Wen is awesome! All archeologists are awesome!"
……
After exchanging a few words with the netizens in the live broadcast room, the archaeology professors discussed and then went to the underground palace together.
All the burial buildings in the periphery had been explored, leaving only the underground palace as the core of the tombs. Whether this was a tomb of an emperor or not would depend on the next revelation.
However, when the experts and scholars, as well as the netizens in the livestream, saw the huge stone door that was several meters tall and the dragon-shaped pattern engraved on it…
Everyone understood the same logic, and the answer seemed to be obvious.
During the Northern Song Dynasty, the dragon was already the exclusive totem of the emperor. The Western Xia, which admired the culture of the Central Plains, would never allow anyone other than the emperor to use this pattern.
"Hiss…Hu!"
Professor Wen took a deep breath and waved his hand. The staff at the side immediately pulled the gate.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the two huge stone doors opened with a bang. A cold air burst out from the inside, making everyone present shiver.
The underground palace was very vast, but it was abnormally flat. There were no high platforms or low valleys. At a glance, one could see the three-story coffin lying flat in the center of the underground palace.
Head facing east, feet facing west.
However, when the professors saw the scene in the underground palace clearly, their hearts could not help but skip a beat.
Everyone was shocked by what they saw!
To the east of the coffin, there were nine huge dragon carvings.
They were several meters long, with towering horns and sharp claws. The nine divine dragons had different expressions, as if they were swallowing clouds and spitting fog, summoning the wind and rain.
What shocked everyone the most was that there was a huge iron chain tied to the tail of the nine dragon-shaped sculptures, which was connected to the coffin in the center of the underground palace.
It was as if these nine divine dragons were pulling the emperor in the coffin up to the sky!
"Gulp…"
In the silent crowd, someone swallowed a mouthful of saliva, but it did not seem out of place.
Because everyone was extremely shocked!
What kind of ritual was this?
Why was the tomb of the Western Xia emperor built to such a standard? Why was it specially placed in such a landscape?
What did this buried Xixia emperor want to do? Pray to ascend to heaven and become an immortal?
It was hard to understand. There had never been such a burial ceremony in the Northern Song Dynasty!
……
Professor Wen, who was shocked, seemed to have left his body. He raised his hand in a daze, as if he was about to walk forward to take a look.
However, before he could take a step, his assistant beside him suddenly screamed.
"Professor Wen, look at the live broadcast room!”
The assistant's exclamation instantly woke Professor Wen up. He frowned slightly but still took the monitor from the assistant.
However, when he saw the barrage of bullet comments in the live broadcast room, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
Dumbfounded!
As a hot topic nowadays, every archeology event was broadcasted live on all platforms. Moreover, it was always the hottest topic. Under normal circumstances, there would be 100,000 live viewers.
However, there were only a few people who were engrossed in discussing archaeology itself, and the bullet comments were definitely all about their own topics.
However, when Professor Wen picked up the display screen, he realized that the popularity of the live broadcast room was soaring. It was about to break through the million mark.
Rows of bullet comments flooded the screen, and almost all of them were just four words.
"Nine Dragons Coffin Pulling!"
"F * ck! F * ck, f * ck! Brothers, isn't this the content of Chu Yun's Tomb Hunting Diary?”
"I'm a loyal fan of his. I remember it clearly. It was the sixth volume of the third volume. That volume was about the Western Xia palace. At that time, I was shocked for a long time when I read about the Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin!”
"What he wrote is exactly the same as what we're seeing now. To have such a similarity, I'm afraid that it can only be written facing each other.”
"Ridiculous! How did Chu Yun know that there were nine dragons pulling the coffin in the ancient tomb of the Western Xia Kingdom?”
"I always thought that Chu Yun wrote books based on his imagination. I was wrong.”
"Good fellow, I call you good fellow!”
"No wonder his novels are so realistic. It turns out that this is his personal experience!”
"The grave robber is the author of the novel!”
At this moment, no one was paying attention to who was lying in the coffin in the middle of the underground palace. Almost all the netizens were scrolling through the author named Chu Yun and his grave-searching diary.
Professor Wen had never read this series of novels.
However, he could not help but frown, his heart filled with doubts.
Who was Chu Yun?
How did he know that there was a strange scene of nine dragons pulling a coffin in the tomb of the Western Xia emperor?
This was a mysterious ritual that had never been recorded in history books. Even the leading archaeologists who had studied it for decades had never seen such a spectacle before.
Could it be that this person had entered the Xixia ancient tomb before?
Professor Wen was shocked!
