It Was This Item Lying in the Coffin! Everyone was shocked!
After they had officially decided to open the ancient bronze coffin, Professor Wen and the other experts looked much more serious.
For top experts in the field of archaeology like them, every ancient tomb was adding to the foundation of China's history.
As the core essence of every ancient tomb, the coffin of the tomb owner would always be the most important research object.
This was especially so for the Yin Emperor's tomb.
It was extremely strange from the inside out. This person had never been recorded in history. Be it in the annals of history or in the novels of the people, there was no record of this Yin Emperor, not even a word or two.
A mysterious figure like this who had been buried in the long river of history was even more worthy of their investigation.
Not to mention the strange layout of the tomb and the simple and crude coffin of the tomb owner.
"Everyone, pay attention. Put on anti-virus equipment and experimental gloves. When the coffin is opened later, pay attention to keep a distance from the coffin.”
Following Professor Wen's instructions, the researchers of the archaeological team also followed his instructions and made their preparations.
This had happened before. In order to prevent someone from opening the coffin, the owner of the tomb had hidden poison gas in the coffin and even a crossbow launcher.
In the end, the staff responsible for opening the coffin suffered casualties.
And the owner of Yin Emperor's tomb was a typical sinister person. Since he could set up a mechanism on the back of the stone tablet to lure people into the tomb, it wouldn't be strange for him to do something on the coffin.
"Kacha!"
As the lock gripped the four edges of the coffin lid tightly, Professor Wen gave the order and the staff pulled the hook lock together.
The thick bronze coffin lid made a dull sound and then separated from the coffin body. It was slowly pulled into the air by the members of the archaeological team.
It was very calm.
The coffin did not emit any poisonous gas, nor did any arrows fly out. It was still lying there quietly.
However, people could clearly notice that the top of the entire tomb had already been illuminated by a golden light.
This seemed to be the reflection of the light when it shone on the object inside the ancient bronze coffin.
……
After the staff locked the coffin lid with a hook and placed it flat on the steps at the side, Professor Wen and the others immediately dressed up and approached the bronze coffin impatiently.
However, when Chu Yun and the others arrived beside the coffin and cautiously looked inside, what they saw immediately shocked everyone.
There was indeed a human figure lying in the coffin, but it was neither a corpse nor a decomposed skeleton.
Instead, it was a golden human figurine that was similar in size to a real person, but it was clearly different from a real person.
The golden light on the ceiling of the tomb was reflected by this golden statue.
Seeing this golden figure, everyone present fell into shock.
Because this was completely different from what they had imagined!
Why was there such a thing lying in the coffin? Could it be that this golden statue was the owner of the tomb, the legendary Yin Emperor that was not recorded in history?
How was this possible?
"Quick, bring our detector over and check the material of this statue.”
Following the professor's instructions, a staff member immediately picked up an instrument and started testing.
Everyone, including Chu Yun, quietly stared at the golden figure and the numbers displayed on the instrument beside it.
After a while, the staff read the data on the instrument and said to Professor Wen and the others with certainty.
"Professor, the data displayed by the instrument can confirm that this statue is made of gold from head to toe.”
"Although the purity of the gold used is questionable, it does not affect the nature of this statue.”
……
As soon as the staff member finished speaking.
"Hiss!"
Gasps sounded in the tomb. Everyone looked at the golden man lying in the coffin with shock.
This was too exaggerated!
It was actually a human figurine that was completely made of gold. How much gold did it cost?
The one lying in the coffin was the size of a normal adult man.
The density of gold was more than 15 times that of a human body, which meant that this golden statue weighed nearly a ton.
No wonder it was stored in a bronze coffin. If it was made of wood, it would have collapsed long ago!
F * ck!
This was too f * cking generous.
Professor Wen and the other experts had decades of experience exploring ancient tombs and had seen many rich and powerful tomb owners.
Many people paid attention to death, so the funerary objects brought into the tomb were their favorite when they were alive, and they were very expensive and luxurious.
But even so, they had never seen anyone use a ton of gold just to build a golden statue for themselves.
During the Qin Dynasty, other than the royal family, who else had such capital?
At this moment, the doubts in everyone's hearts did not decrease. Instead, they became even more intense with the appearance of the golden man.
What was the identity of the tomb owner? Why was he able to take out such a huge amount of gold to place a golden statue here?
Why wasn't the corpse lying in the bronze coffin but this thing? Was there any particular reason?
……
As the coffin lid was lifted, Chu Yun, who had been quietly observing from the side, frowned slightly.
The system did not show any reaction to this golden statue. Firstly, the mission did not show that it was completed, and secondly, the system did not tell him that it was a treasure.
This meant that in the system's assessment, this human figurine made of gold was nothing.
However, this was also very reasonable.
Antiques and antiques were valuable because they were endowed with time and history.
This golden lump did not have any superb craftsmanship, nor did it reflect any special culture. Most importantly, it had no facial features.
If that was the case, it would really be a lump of gold. After dragging it back to smelt it and pouring it back into the mold, it would probably be exactly the same.
Chu Yun did not care too much about this golden statue. He did not have much use for it. He could not possibly drag it back and put it at home. There was no need to exchange it for money.
After pondering for a moment, Chu Yun asked Professor Wen.
"Professor Wen, it is rumored that after Qin Shihuang unified the world and established the Qin Dynasty, in order to completely eliminate the possibility of the descendants of the six countries rising again, he was forced to return to the Qin Dynasty.”
"The weapon that can destroy the world was forged into the Twelve Golden Men. Could this be one of them?”
