Fantasy World Transmigration - 701
The next morning, O’Connor and his party came to the construction site at the foot of Lishan Mountain, which had been protected by Feng Yuxiang. The British Council in Wuhan contacted Feng Yuxiang. Before Yan Xiangwen was the governor of Shaanxi, he suddenly suddenly Suicide, Feng Yuxiang, commander of the 11th Division of the Zhijun Army, took over as the Shaanxi Warlord.
Feng Yuxiang was the head of the Beiyang warlord in Shaanxi. When he met O’Connor in the Shaanxi Warlord’s Mansion, he wore a soldier uniform. Because he was a soldier, he always liked to look hard and simple. He believes in Christianity, and when he meets with foreign’believers’, he wears a cross and hung on his chest, which looks nondescript.
In fact, belief in Christianity once became a trend in China at this time. The warlords were proud of their belief in Christianity. Thinking deeply, it was nothing more than to indulge in foreigners. In this stall of Chinese warlords, the foreigners spoke more effectively than the President of Beiyang.
Not to mention other things, it is just that the British have a loose hand, and the arms and loans given to Feng Yuxiang are a bit cheaper, and it is worthy of him to curry favor.
Feng Yuxiang entertained foreign “archaeologists” with great enthusiasm. He graciously invited O’Connor and Laura to pray in the chapel of his home. In the name of discussing the doctrine and the Bible, he let him and These foreigners are familiar with each other.
Although Britain suffered a heavy blow at this time, first Feng Yuxiang might not know it. Second, even if Feng Yuxiang knew, the wealth of the British Empire still had so little. The French and Germans still dare not look down on Great Britain, which exercises sea power. What’s more, Chinese warlords? Although the British family business has been defeated, it is still a bit more noble than the inferior yellow race. O’Connor and others think so.
In their opinion, only Europeans have culture and civilization. Christianity is a universal value. The British are first-class civilized people, Europeans are second-class civilized people, Americans are inferior civilized people, and Japanese are civilized barbarians. , And the Chinese are better than those of African natives at best. They are semi-civilized barbarians, and the religious Chinese are the fully civilized species of civilized barbarians, and they are more noble than others.
So when Feng Yuxiang revealed his identity as a believer, they still had a bit of high opinion and a good impression.
But when the two sides discussed the specific division of interests, this kind of favor was immediately forgotten. The British deputy director who led the way looked cold and said with a hint of order: “We ask the Beiyang side to come forward to protect our archaeology. And suppress local thieves and rebels, and provide convenience for our activities here as far as possible.”
Feng Yuxiang laughed and laughed: “We must protect the legitimate interests of your country, but we can’t sell China’s interests… right? Now on the streets, the reputation for this archeological activity is very bad! Qin Shihuang is China A great emperor, his mausoleum is also an important property and treasure of the Chinese government. If your country is forced to take over its archaeological activities, I am afraid it will stir up controversy against Britain in public opinion. You must know that there are also the southern rebels. The party is making trouble.”
“If we Beiyang make concessions to Britain! The rebels in the south will besiege Beiyang in public opinion, and the cultural and educational circles will also strongly oppose this infringement of Chinese treasures and reselling of Chinese cultural relics…”
The deputy director looked cold and said indifferently: “The British government has no intention of stealing Chinese cultural relics…” As soon as he said this, Feng Yuxiang cursed in his stomach: “You are a lie! Ten years ago, the Dunhuang scriptures in Gansu. It doesn’t seem to be on display in your British Museum? Is it because the Chinese people gave you so many treasures in the China Pavilion?”
“… But with all due respect, the Chinese government does not have the conditions for the excavation and preservation of cultural relics. There is no archaeology in your country. Only under the development and protection of the United Kingdom can the history and culture of your country be recognized and recognized by the international academic community. The results of the recognition will only be left to you, and these precious cultural relics will only be allowed to flow into the international cultural relics market, causing inevitable damage and loss.”
“This archaeological operation is of great importance. Our country hopes that there will be a battalion of embassy escorts to protect our archaeologists at the archaeological site and work normally. At the same time, General Feng also needs to provide reasonable assistance, such as guides and excavators. For the friendship between our two countries, General Feng should carefully consider our proposal.”
In order to force Feng Yuxiang’s consent in the shortest possible time, the deputy director had to violate the usual subtle shit-chucking tactics in the British diplomatic community, and used tough threats to let Feng Yuxiang relax. Sure enough, when the deputy director’s tone was implicitly threatening, Feng Yuxiang had to face it. It’s ugly, but it still agreed to all the requirements of the British side.
The deputy consul knew that the matter of buying for Feng Yuxiang’s advantage later was left to them to solve by themselves, and the top priority now was to let O’Connor and others start their work.
Coming to the foot of Lishan, Laura saw an orderly excavation site. Laura was surprised to see a few people dressed in hemp shoes and dressed as a’tufuzi’, inserting a semi-cylindrical iron into the ground. The shovel, the old man headed by the shovel, had gray hair and still kept the whip from the front. He put the braid on his head and carefully checked the dirt he brought up.
O’Connor walked behind Laura, surprised: “What are these Chinese doing?”
“Hush!” Laura interrupted him and said in a low voice, “I have heard Chinese archaeologists mention in the archaeological literature that Chinese explorers and tomb thieves use a type called’Luoyang shovel’. The archaeological tools of China brought out tens of feet of underground soil for analysis and inspection. They would observe the color and smell of the soil, determine its age, geological characteristics, and seal the tomb.”
“Experienced Chinese explorers can even use them to determine whether anyone has excavated this land on a large scale hundreds of years ago.”
“It’s amazing!” Laura exclaimed.
“The art of contemplation, the prime minister’s soil tastes water…” The gray-haired old man whispered to Chen Yulou next to him: “I have tasted the surrounding 17 ancient wells, and I am sure that the water here is soft and sweet, with Three points for gold water and seven points for silver water. It can be said to be rich and long. It is similar to each other, weighing eight taels, and good luck.”
“Why does the gentleman frown frequently?” Chen Yulou asked puzzledly.
“It’s the soil brought by the Luoyang shovel. It’s weird! I have already found the upper layer of the first emperor’s tomb, but if it is really according to my exploration, the Qin emperor’s tomb will be 12,000 steps from here, three to the left and three to the left. Within ten thousand steps, there are mud traces of the sealing soil. And the top layer of the sealing soil is blue-black, which is Yang Qing mud, and Yang Qing mud often appears in the Warring States Tomb.”
“But this color of Yangqing mud, I only saw it in a tomb of a nobleman of the Qin Kingdom I visited in the early years. At that time, your father was the leader. He led us to discover this tomb at the foot of Sage Mountain. At that time, we Just noticed the weirdness of this copper-colored seal. Later, when we broke through the thief hole on the seal, something unimaginable happened.”
“Later we learned that this kind of copper-colored sun green mud was called’sting dragon soil.’ This kind of sun green mud needs to be smashed together with the sun green mud excavated from the ancient tomb. The soil pill should weigh nine or two nines, mixed with gu worms and eggs of foreign objects, and poured on the outer layer of the tomb’s sealed soil.”
“There are eight kinds of Gu worm eggs mixed in the soil of the stinging dragon. Adding the eggs of zerg worms blindly called worms, the worms hatch when the wind is covered. If the spring is nourished, then the worms in the sealed soil will slowly lay eggs and die. This kind of worms have a very peculiar temperament and need to be parasitic on the Gu worms to reproduce. At that time, the eggs laid by Gu worms will carry Gu worm eggs and worm eggs, and the worm eggs that hatch together with the worm will parasitize the next generation of Gu worms in the shortest time. In order to allow themselves to parasitize the Gu worms to reproduce Before they die, the worm will secrete a kind of glue like propolis to protect the Gu worm eggs. When they reach adulthood, they have to face the wind to grow wings.”
“So the first batch of hatched worm eggs, the worm eggs that grow out, protect the worm eggs in the soil and die because they don’t see the wind, and their parasitic eggs can last for thousands of years. Vitality. Only when you see the wind, the secretions that are protected outside the Gu worm will disappear, prompting the Gu worm to hatch.”
The old man sighed: “When we robbed the tomb of the nobleman of the Qin Kingdom, the two thousand years of Gu worm eggs inside were exposed to the wind because of the excavation of the tomb of the nobleman of the Qin Kingdom. It’s in our body.” The old man carefully smashed the bronze sealing soil that Luoyang shovel had brought up and showed it to Chen Yulou.
Some of the big ones were as big as sesame seeds, but the small, faintly invisible Gu worms shook off from the enclosed soil.
Chen Yulou’s complexion changed horribly, and he said in a deep voice, “So about a few places under our feet, there is this kind of sealed soil underground? Then, if you dig a robbery hole, about how much of a piece of sealed soil will the worms resurrect?”
The old man pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said, “As the wind blows up in the robbery cave, it will probably alarm the gu worms in the surrounding area.”
“These gu worms love yin and hate the sun. They will not appear on the ground under the sun, but they will soon be spread all over the thief caves. When we enter the thief cave, we are like entering a worm cave, from excavation to sting. From the beginning of the dragon soil, the Gu worms will recover and breed in just three quarters. The larger the area dug out, the more Gu worms will be alarmed.”
“This is the first defense of the Mausoleum of the First Emperor!” Chen Yulou sighed: “With the talent of the First Emperor, I don’t know how much danger there will be…”
O’Connor looked at the few people who were shoveling Luoyang at their feet, and sneered: “I don’t think we need to look forward to those Chinese people. They are ignorant and lazy uncivilized people… Our time is running out, we have to hurry up. Unearthed the dragon emperor’s coffin to prevent the Easterners from resurrecting him.”
Laura objected: “I think we should listen to the opinions of local explorers…”
“Listen to them, we won’t be able to dig the main tomb in a year!” O’Connor left here without looking back and walked towards the tent set up on the scene. He is going to discuss with the supervisor here and follow his instructions. Opinion speeds up the progress.
