Chapter 624
The top of the cave, which is more than 100 meters high, is as smooth as the wall of the cave, but this is not enough. What surprised them was that the rocks on the top of the cave are densely inlaid with countless precious stones, shining and shining under the reflection of the fire.
These precious stones, the small ones are the size of nails, and the big ones are even as valuable as goose eggs. They are embedded in the top of the cave, giving people a strong sense of violence.
"My God, what's the situation!" Wang Shan couldn't help but wonder. He just felt that his eyes were dazzled, and all he saw were the bright colors.
Not only him, but all of us were shocked.
Wang Lihui murmured: "so many precious stones must be worth a lot of money. Unfortunately, they are too high to be taken down. Otherwise, they will be taken down casually, and they will never worry about food and clothing when they go back."
Li Jianming said with a regretful face: "it's a pity that there is no one who can take advantage of it. Otherwise, you can shoot a few with one shot. Look at the white one, it's so big. It's really rare! I've never seen so many jewels before
Gao Yi nodded with approval. He was also a soldier, and his shooting skills were good. If he had a gun in his hand, he could really knock down the gem on it.
Among the six people, even Zhao Yanzhi, who usually seldom talks, can't help but say: "there are so many precious stones. I don't know what people thought at that time. They should waste them in such a place."
Xiangchuan zazui, some distressed way: "I don't know if this inlay has damaged the gem. I heard that some inlay skills, the gem is cut from the middle, looks complete and round, but actually cut out, only half of it, this value, also need to be greatly reduced."
"What's the use of saying this," Gao Yi shook his head. "As long as you can get it, half of it is worth money! The problem now is that we can't get it at all. "
Rong Guocheng listened to their lively discussions, and could not help but say: "can you have some promise? I haven't wronged you in money on weekdays, but I saw some small stones, just like this!"
Wang Shan shook his head and said, "brother Rong, this is not a small stone. You think, this cave is left over from ancient times. Of course, all the things on it are antiques. They are gems and they are old. Their value is immeasurable!"
"That's to say, even if it's really a stone, the things handed down from ancient times are very valuable. Let's not say they are precious." Li Jianming followed suit.
Rong Guocheng could only shake his head and smile helplessly. These things can really make people move. Even if he was not in such a situation, he would have to figure out how to get those gems down.
However, now that Tang Feng is in front of him, Rong Guocheng doesn't like to talk disorderly. He looks at Tang Feng for fear that he will be displeased by these people's words.
But Tang Feng didn't seem to hear it. He just raised his head slightly, frowned slightly and looked at the gem on the top of the cave.
Rong Guocheng naturally knew that Tang Feng would not covet these gems. With such an expression, he must have seen something. He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mr. Tang, what's wrong with this?"
"Star map of the East." Tang Feng said these words slowly from his mouth.
"Star map of the east?" Rong Guocheng repeated with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "Mr. Tang, what is this?"
Tang Feng did not pay more attention to Rong Guocheng, but looked at Zixuan.
At the moment, Zixuan also looked at the cave top with her eyes wide open. Hearing Tang Feng's words, she drew her eyes back and also looked at Tang Feng. The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, barely showing a smile, and said, "it's really a star map. I've seen it in my family, but it's not such a gem. It's just painted in books. I didn't expect it, It's amazing that someone would make such crazy moves. I don't know how much manpower and financial resources it took to complete this picture with so many precious stones at that time. "
The rest of the people are very puzzled. They look at these gems, but they are randomly inlaid on the top of the cave. The colors of red and green are different, and the light is dazzling, but they can't see the shape of these arrangements.
Meng Gongyun also looked up at the top of the cave. After a long time, he said, "Mr. Tang, Miss Zixuan, what is a star map?"
Zixuan said: "the star map is naturally three walls, four elephants and twenty-eight constellations. Mr. Meng is an archaeologist. He doesn't even know this, does he?"
Meng Gongyun looked at the top of the cave carefully, then shook his head and said, "I naturally know these star regions mentioned by Miss Zixuan, but I can't identify these positions by looking at the image, and I can't even find the north celestial pole."
In the history of China, astrology, as an extremely important science, has been involved in many fields. Whether it is astronomy related to natural science or geomantic omen related to religion, it has an inseparable relationship with it. In many ancient documents, there are relevant records. As a senior professor of archaeology, how can Meng Qiongyun not understand these?
When he heard that they mentioned the astrology, he also observed carefully, trying to find the star area he was familiar with. However, it seemed that he could not find any position he could distinguish. How to look at it, the gemstones seemed to be randomly inlaid and had no clue, so he was puzzled.
Without waiting for Zixuan to answer, Wang Lihui also asked her, "star map? Miss Zixuan, I know that! I've read novels about tomb robberies. It's said that many ancient tombs draw star maps on their vaults. Is that what they are
Hearing that Wang Lihui took out what he saw in his novels as knowledge, Rong Guocheng felt very speechless. When she was about to say something about him, Zixuan said with a smile: "yes, many tombs are accompanied by star maps and other things. Some large royal tombs and the vault of the main tomb do carve or draw special sky maps, To show the dignity of the tomb owner. "
With Zixuan's affirmation, Wang Lihui was even more excited and almost danced. He went on to say: "in my novel, the mausoleum of Emperor Qinshihuang is paved with gold, silver and gems on the ground and inlaid with star images on the vault. Surely it's such a scene? I thought those novels were all made up. I didn't expect that they were all true! "
