Chapter 1169: Persuasion

"The tomb of the thousand-year-old ghost? What did you say? Is there something wrong with your mind or is I not awake now?"

Ren Chunqiang was a little confused. After taking the object that was a little dim and black to throw at Zhuang Rui, his right hand sank suddenly and almost grabbed the golden cake. It was obvious that the weight of the object exceeded Ren Chunqiang's estimate.

Generally, gold unearthed in tombs is not the shiny gold that people imagine, but the surface will be a little dark and dark. People who have not studied gold may even think it is brass.

However, Dr. Ren had seen a lot of gold and silver unearthed. As soon as he got it, he immediately recognized it. He opened his mouth in surprise and asked, "This...is this gold?"

Just as he woke up from the shock of being ghosts, Dr. Ren couldn't help but shake his head, carefully cleaved the golden cake in his hand, and even took the golden cake in his mouth and bit it. He wanted to confirm that this was not his own hallucination.

You should know that the higher the purity of gold, the softer it is, and you can mark shallow marks with your fingernails. After Dr. Ren took the golden cake from his mouth, two tooth marks were in his eyes.

"Zhuang Rui, where did you get gold of such high purity?"

Looking at the teeth marks on the golden cake, Ren Chunqiang became more and more surprised. Could it be that there is really a crystal palace hidden in the lake? Otherwise, Zhuang Rui would have even brought a piece of gold after he had not been missing for more than an hour?

"Brother Ren, look at what is written on it?" Zhuang Rui smiled without answering.

"Hmm? This...is this font?"

Dr. Ren's face turned red. He had just looked carefully. There were indeed some lines on the golden cake, but he regarded it as some patterns. After hearing what Zhuang Rui said, he began to observe again.

"This... should be the earliest type of ancient Mongolian characters..."

Looking at the words on the golden cake, Dr. Ren pondered for a while and said with a wry smile: "This kind of words were only circulated among the Mongolian royal family at that time, and ordinary Mongolians were not allowed to learn them, so they were lost later. Now, not many people know this type of font..."

Although Dr. Ren's research direction was not Mongolian culture, he knew a little about the history of that time, but he could not recognize the words on it like Zhuang Rui.

"Hehe, Brother Ren, I just happen to know these words. When it is read together, it is called "Borjijin". What can you think of?"

Zhuang Rui laughed when he heard this. This was the first time he had seen his senior brother who seemed to know everything. He still had something he didn't know about theory.

"Borjijin? Why does it make you so uncomfortable to read? Brother Zhuang, what does this mean?"

Before Dr. Ren could answer, Peng Fei, who had recovered from the side, asked, "He had seen a lot of golden cakes like this in the cave under the water."

"Hey, I said, what are your expressions?"

After Peng Fei asked, he didn't see Zhuang Rui answering his words, but he saw the people around him, all of whom opened their mouths wide, all of whom were shocked, confused, and excited.

"Bo...Bojijin, that...that is our Mongolian Khan, Temujin's surname, Ba...Boter's eldest brother is Borjijin..."

Timur's stuttering words relieved Peng Fei's confusion. As the golden family more than a thousand years ago, only the descendants of Temujin were qualified for the surname "Borjijin".

And Bater happened to be a direct descendant of Temujin. His ancestors have been staying on the grasslands to protect their ancestors for thousands of years. When they were placed in the Qing Dynasty, Bater might be able to become a Mongolian prince.

The word "Borjijin" is left on this golden cake, which will be related to Genghis Khan no matter what. Therefore, except for Peng Fei, who is covered in a mushy head, the other people who know the origin of these four words are all shocked.

"Zhuang Rui, you read that right?"

Dr. Ren asked half-believably, he was really a little unbelievable. Zhuang Rui could find any information about the Golden Family when he was fishing in the lake?

Zhuang Rui shook his head and said with a serious look on his face: "Brother Ren, you don't know my major. I do not know Mongolian characters, but some books published in modern times have comments on these words..."

"Then... how did this... get this thing?"

At this time, Dr. Ren remembered to ask about Zhuang Rui’s experience at the bottom of the lake. In just over an hour, Zhuang Rui went from missing to appearing, and then brought such an amazing object, which made Dr. Ren’s brain a little hypoxia.

"Uh, that's it. There is a cave at the bottom of the lake. After I swam in, I found it..."

Zhuang Rui half-true and half-falsely told him about the process at the bottom of the lake, and focused on explaining carefully the traces of axe-chief on the other side of the cave at the bottom of the lake. Of course, the cave was just discovered by accident.

"Is this... Could it be the tomb of the Mongolian royal?"

Out of the sensitivity of archaeological work, Dr. Ren's first thought in his mind was to discover the Mongolian royal tomb after listening to Zhuang Rui's story.

Just imagine who except the Mongolian emperors is capable of digging caves at the bottom of a lake? And its motivation is naturally self-evident, and it must be the place where the emperor lives after his death.

Thinking of this, Dr. Ren couldn't help but feel excited. The tomb of the Mongolian emperor is a goal pursued by countless people for thousands of years. In terms of its mysterious and hiddenness, even the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang cannot be compared with it.

"Brother Ren, I'm not sure, but there must be huge secrets hidden inside. I think... we need to conduct further surveys..."

Zhuang Rui shook his head. Of course, he would not say the Mausoleum of Genghis Khan at the end of the dark river. Out of concern for the spiritual energy in his eyes, Zhuang Rui did not want to say too much. He just needed some guidance at this time.

"It's necessary, of course, it's necessary, it's simply necessary..."

After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Dr. Ren pointed his head like a rattle. What a joke? He found clues about the Mongolian imperial tomb. That was something that shocked the world. Is it unnecessary?

If it can be truly confirmed that there is an imperial tomb inside, then the few people present will be kept in history, just like the archaeological predecessors who discovered "fossils of Beijing skulls", which has become a model for later generations to learn and admire.

"Brother Ren, maybe there is nothing inside. Over the years, many people have claimed to have discovered Genghis Khan's Mausoleum or Mongolian Prince's Mausoleum..."

Zhuang Rui deliberately poured a basin of cold water. What he said is true. Since the beginning of the last century, countless people have had fantasies about the Mongolian royal tombs, and even large consortiums from many countries have sponsored some explorers to enter Inner Mongolia and Outer Mongolia for archaeological exploration.

There were also many scholars and expedition teams who claimed that they had discovered the Genghis Khan's Mausoleum, but the final scientific research results proved that at best they had discovered some tombs of ordinary Mongolians, and they were not even considered nobles.

After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Dr. Ren waved his hand repeatedly and said, "Different, Zhuang Rui, that's different. The previous discoveries were all excavated on the surface, and the caves you found underground were at least ten meters deep, and it is very likely that they were built by the Mongolian emperor..."

Zhuang Rui was happy when he heard this. He was afraid that Ren Chunqiang would not believe it. Now that he saw Ren Chunqiang's attitude, he probably could start counting down the imperial tomb when it was released.

"Brother Ren, then... what should we do?" Zhuang Rui deliberately acted like he didn't know what to do.

"Zhuang Rui, I want to go down with you. After seeing the conclusive situation inside, if it is the same as you said, it must be reported to the instructor immediately..."

Dr. Ren is still extremely rigorous in archaeology. He has to see the situation inside with his own eyes before he will make a decision.

"In addition, we must ask the local garrison to strictly block the place and not allow any outsiders to enter. Brother Bartel, you and Peng Fei should be asked to do this matter together. Remember not to leak any news..."

Ren Chunqiang attaches great importance to the protection of the unearth of the tomb. You should know that man-made disasters are sometimes more serious than natural disasters. If those with ulterior motives learn that there is a Mongolian imperial tomb here, maybe before they can excavate, the building will be empty.

"This...this..."

But Dr. Ren didn't expect that after he said this, Bater, who had always been generous, showed a look of embarrassment on his face. Ren Chunqiang thought about it and realized immediately.

As the direct descendant of Githis Khan, Bater now heard that outsiders were trying to dig up the tomb of his ancestors. His mood must be quite complicated. It would be extremely rare to turn against Zhuang Rui and others.

"Brother Bater, Mongolian culture is an extremely important piece of history in China. The purpose of our archaeology is to excavate and sort out these history that have been forgotten by future generations, so that the historical truth will be reproduced in the world. Moreover, during the excavation process, we will definitely protect the remains of our ancestors..."

Zhuang Rui also guessed what Bartel was thinking. After seeing Batel's ugly face relaxed for a moment, he continued: "The national archaeological excavation will ensure the integrity of the tomb to the greatest extent. If you are taken first by a tomb robber, you may not only be robbed, but also the corpses of your ancestors will be destroyed..."

Generally, the most valuable burial objects in various tombs are next to the corpse of the tomb owner in the coffin. Therefore, after entering the tomb robbers, they focus on the coffin inside. Almost as long as they are robbed tombs, it is inevitable that they will abandon the corpse and bones.

Like when Sun Dianying robbed Cixi Qianlong's tomb, he plundered Cixi's body and threw the bones underground. When the Qing officials later entered the tomb, the uncorrupted corpse was already terrible.

Emperor Qianlong's fate was even more miserable. Emperor Qianlong, who claimed to be the ten-perfect emperor, and the empress's corpse was abandoned like grass and spread all over the tomb palace.

This led to the fact that the Qing officials who finally cleaned up the mess could not distinguish the mixed corpses at all. After the death of Emperor Shiquan, he was incomplete.
