"President Zhang, do you know Wen Tao?" Sun Ting looked at Zhang Guozhong and smiled slightly.

"I know, I know so much!" Zhang Guozhong couldn't help laughing when he heard Wen Tao. He was considered to be asking about his strengths. Zhang Guozhong still has a good understanding of the ancient history of China.

Wen Tao, a native of Jingzhaohua, served as the governor of Yaozhou at the end of the Tang Dynasty. After the founding of Later Liang, Zhu Quanzhong, the founding of Later Liang, Wen Tao surrendered to Later Liang with Yaozhou. Later, Zhu Quanzhong changed Yaozhou to Chongzhou, and Wen Tao continued to become the governor of this place.

When Wen Tao was born, it was said that a bandit star fell on Mount Saga. During his seven years in the town, he did not let down the falling bandit star at all. He stole all the tombs of the Tang Dynasty royal tombs in his jurisdiction with his perseverance. Among them, even the famous Zhaoling, it can be said to be a strange flower in the tomb robber world in China. This is also the reason why he was a small governor in the Five Dynasties and chaotic times, he was even more famous than many emperors and generals. Compared with the tomb robbers like Wen Tao who are moving companies, Dong Zhuo in the late Han Dynasty, the tomb robbers robbed by Cao Cao in the late Han Dynasty, the tomb robbers robbed by Cao Cao was simply unavailable. Sun Dianying in the Republic of China was a good citizen.

Theft of Zhaoling should be considered the most glorious page in Wen Tao's tomb robbery career. According to legend, the stolen treasure carts were carried by horses and thousands of people moved in a month. Zhaoling, which is the tomb of Taizong Li Shimin, was the largest imperial tomb in the Tang Dynasty, with a total area of ​​20,000 inches and a circumference of 60 kilometers (the circumference of the Fourth Ring Road in Beijing is only 65 kilometers). There were more than 200 princes and nobles buried with each other. According to modern data, the total value of the entire Zhaoling, including the Taizong Mausoleum and the surrounding Wanghou Mausoleum, is approximately equivalent to the total national output value of about three years of the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. Among the many rare treasures, the original work of Wang Xizhi's "Lanting Preface" should be regarded as the most dazzling treasure among them. In Li Shimin's will, in the will of Li Shimin, the name should be used to bury it with "Lanting Preface". According to historical records, this peak work of Wang Xizhi should be in Li Shimin's coffin.

As the saying goes, man's plan is not as good as heaven's plan. Wen Tao also missed the tomb robbers. When he robbed Wu Zetian's Qianling Mausoleum, wind and rain suddenly fell from the sky, and the excavation project could only stop. When the wind and rain stopped, Wen Tao had just ordered it to continue, and the wind and rain suddenly came again. Wen Tao thought it was God's will, so he gave up Qianling Mausoleum. This was the only good thing Wen Tao did in his life.

"Can't that the tomb of Zhongtiao Mountain also robbed by Wen Tao?" Zhang Guozhong asked.

"No, the owner of that tomb is the one who killed Wen Tao..." A light flashed in Sun Ting's eyes.

"Li Siyuan?" Zhang Guozhong smiled slightly. Since his last trip to Bashan, Zhang Guozhong has also become interested in the history of the Five Dynasties.

"President Zhang is indeed knowledgeable..." Sun Ting smiled and said, "As the saying goes, a big tree attracts wind. In folk legend, in order to protect the officials and lives, Wen Tao used the treasures he robbed from tombs everywhere, but in the end he could never escape the greed of the ruler... The mantis stalked the cicada, and the oriole was behind. When Wen Tao made a fortune due to tomb robbing, there were more than one person who coveted his wealth, and Li Siyuan was one of them..." Sun Ting frowned and began to gesture and analyze.

Li Siyuan, the Mingzong of the Later Tang Dynasty, was named Miao Jilie. After becoming the adopted son of Li Keyong, the Taizu of the Later Tang Dynasty, he changed his name to Li Siyuan. He was originally a military general and had no culture. Although he was quite upright and cared about the people's livelihood. He was once called the wise ruler of the Five Dynasties, he still could not escape the greed unique to being a military general. One of the reasons why he killed Wen Tao was worried that Wen Tao's fickleness would threaten the comfort of the country. Another reason was that he saw the huge wealth obtained by Wen Tao's tomb robbing.

"The "Lanting Preface" is in Li Siyuan's tomb?" Zhang Guozhong has gained some knowledge this time. Unexpectedly, the two rare treasures, He Shibi Seal and "Lanting Preface" were taken for themselves by these emperors of the Five Dynasties.

"Yes, in order to please Li Siyuan to promote and save his life, Wen Tao did not hesitate to present the most valuable "Lanting Preface" on his hand to Li Siyuan, but this aroused Li Siyuan's greed, so he simply killed Wen Tao and took his property back to the national treasury..." Sun Ting said, "The reason why the treasury was relatively abundant during Li Siyuan's administration was that in addition to the fact that Li Siyuan was benevolent in politics, the country was rich and the people were strong, confiscating Wen Tao's property also made Li Siyuan make enough money..."

"By the way, according to Mr. Sun, the failure of Yun Lingzi's series of plans is related to this tomb. What's going on?"

"President Zhang, I just said that Wen Tao also made mistakes in tomb robbing..." Sun Ting said, "When he robbed Qianling, Wen Tao encountered wind and rain, which led to Wen Tao giving up Qianling."

"Could it be... this Li Siyuan Mausoleum has similarities with Qianling?" Zhang Guozhong was puzzled.

"Isn't it a similar thing? It can be said that it's getting worse..." Sun Ting smiled slightly, "Li Siyuan killed no one else, but Wen Tao, the founder of the tomb robbery industry. According to Taoist theory, Zhaoling should be regarded as the Tangling with the most complex formation, and Wen Tao still robbed it without any effort, so Li Siyuan had to consider using some unique methods to build his own tomb..."

The "Canceled Dragon Formation" is the most popular anti-robbery bureau in the Tang Dynasty. This abnormal popularity of course also led to a group of sorcerers who specialize in the study of "Canceled Dragon Formation". Although Zhaoling is complicated, in the eyes of these sorcerers, it is just like high school students encountering arithmetic problems of addition and subtraction. According to legend, Zhaoling uses the most complex "Yancha" in the "Canceled Dragon Formation". Every burial palace noble has an independent "Canceled Dragon Formation". Each independent "Canceled Dragon Formation" exists as a garrison of the "main formation" of Taizong Mausoleum.

If the complexity is modern, it is simply incredible. However, Wen Tao didn't know which immortal he invited. In less than a month, he broke the "Yanju" of Zhaoling and moved all the treasures inside. Given the lessons of Zhaoling, Li Siyuan believed that the traditional "dragon engraving formation" was difficult to play a role in the anti-theft, so he used the "corpse refining cauldron" to create a unique "dragon engraving formation". Although its basic principle has not yet deviated from the foundation of the "dragon engraving formation", the actual effect is far higher than that of Zhaoling.

"The nine-tailed raccoon cat temporarily broke the corpse refining kiln by hitting the head, which gave Yun Lingzi a great inspiration. Later, Yun Lingzi broke the 'corpse refining pot'. The principle is similar to the principle of hitting the head of the raccoon. It was only temporarily broken, not really broken. I don't know the specific principle very well, but it is certain that Yun Lingzi was sure to restore the power of the corpse refining pot at any time when Kazua Shigetaro and Sakurai Seizo appeared. Although he himself was not spared at that time, the death of the two Japanese was certain..." Sun Ting shook his head and showed a very regretful expression.

"Then what? What's going on when the heavy rain blows out the soul-sucking fragrance? Could it be that there are wind controls in Li Siyuan's tomb?" Zhang Guozhong seemed a little disbelief. In his impression, although the Taoist numbers were profound, they were not as powerful as calling the wind and rain.

"The only time Wen Tao missed the tomb robber was in Qianling..." Sun Ting said, "The reason for the failure was that it was raining..."

"Guozhong, there are some things in ancient times that you and my head can imagine... Taoism can indeed summon wind and rain. When Wen Tao stole Qianling, he encountered wind and rain suddenly. In fact, those spells that control the rain by controlling the rain took effect. We don't know, we can't say that others can't..." Old Liu took a breath and curled his mouth, "Those spells are actually scary tricks. Unexpectedly, Wen Tao was really caught. His adviser may be the same as you, thinking that Dao Seven could not control the rain by controlling the rain, so he suggested that he stop. Unexpectedly, Li Siyuan used this trick in his tomb with reference to Wen Tao's success or failure..."

"According to the Chiho Tanaka, when Yun Lingzi lit three incense sticks, the sky suddenly changed drastically, and the wind and rain poured down. Yukiko Harada's face also changed. Yun Lingzi suddenly pulled out his sword and stabbed Sakuzo Sakurai, who was closer to him, and was shot to death by the Japanese soldiers next to him..." Speaking of this, Sun Ting's tone seemed a little excited, and he slapped the table with his fist.

"That's the soul-scent fragrance..." Old Liu frowned and thoughtful, "According to my analysis, the situation at that time was probably like this: Yun Lingzi referred to the method of the raccoon cat, temporarily broke the "dragon engraving formation" composed of the corpse refining cauldron, and used the burial formation to temporarily lead the power of the corpse refining cauldron to the three Maoshan children. In theory, there is a strict time limit to doing this. If the power of the corpse refining cauldron is not drawn back within a certain period of time, then the three Maoshan brothers must have life worries. However, when Yun Lingzi lit the soul-scent incense and was about to lead the corpse refining cauldron back, suddenly the ways of calling the wind and rain in Li Siyuan's tomb took effect, extinguishing the soul-scent incense, and the burial formation failed. Maoshan was sure to kill the three brothers, but Yun Lingzi was alone in his mind.

After throwing it, seeing that the ignition formation was not completed, he wanted to stab Sakurai Satomi Sakurai with real kung fu, but he was shot to death..." Old Liu paused and adjusted his thoughts for a moment, "After the power of the corpse refining cauldron was led away by the ignition formation, the 'dragon engraving formation' was basically no power. So after Yun Lingzi's death, the Japanese swaggered and emptied all the burial objects in Li Siyuan's tomb, including the rare treasure "Lanting Preface"... But all of this, especially the rain, Old Ma Sijia was not aware of it. Seeing that the three disciples died tragically, the national treasure was also emptied by the Japanese pirates, but Yun Lingzi disappeared. Old Ma had to suspect Yun Lingzi's head, so Yun Lingzi had the reputation of being a traitor..." Speaking of this, even Old Liu sighed.

"So that's the case..." Zhang Guozhong sighed and smacked the table with his fist, "By the way, who is Tanaka Chiho?"

"It was Sakurai Shizo's personal bodyguard at that time. I made a special trip to Japan to visit this person. According to his description, Yun Lingzi was shot at least seven times, and finally stood up with a sword. Even Yukiro Harada himself finally bowed to Yun Lingzi's body..." Speaking of this, Sun Ting's eyes suddenly turned red and his tone was trembling, "President Zhang, I have been looking at the ins and outs of Yun Lingzi for a whole five years, but the Taoist people in the mainland and Hong Kong do not believe what I said at all, so I hope you can help me clarify this matter as the head of Maoshan, and give Yun Lingzi a clear innocence. I am grateful to you!" Speaking of this, Sun Ting suddenly gritted his teeth and stood up, bowing deeply to Zhang Guozhong.

"Mr. Sun! No way!" Zhang Guozhong hurriedly stood up and helped him, "Mr. Sun, it is our unshirkable responsibility to clarify his innocence for the anti-Japanese patriots... Sit down quickly!" After Zhang Guozhong helped Sun Ting sit down, he couldn't help but wonder, "Please forgive me for taking the initiative. I wonder what Mr. Sun has been working hard for five years for a person he has never known each other?"
