Chapter 1314 The Divorced Merchant's Daughter - Side Story 6 (End)
such as:
What is the working principle of the water elevator in Shu Jiao's tomb?
Are the strange, unseen creatures in Shu Jiao's tomb the earliest examples of biological hybridization, evolution, and mutation research? What did they eat and drink for nine hundred years in the tomb? How did they survive?
Another example:
How was the DNA evidence from Shu Jiao's tomb obtained?
How is speech recognition done?
Logically speaking, over nine hundred years ago, the technology tree wouldn't have been that advanced, right?
And those vanished ancient kingdoms—Shu Jiao didn't mention a single word about them!
Hey ~
It's not that it wasn't mentioned.
Because Shu You later discovered some books in the study in Shu Jiao's tomb.
"Da Yong Feng Wu Zhi"
The Laws and Regulations of the Qiang Kingdom
The Great Zhao Diet Record
"The Complete Records of Events in Xuguo"...
It covers books on daily life, legal knowledge, aesthetics, and agricultural techniques from those lost ancient kingdoms.
This further confirms that those countries do exist and are not fictional.
but……
Where exactly are those countries located?
Why haven't any graves been unearthed yet?
And these technologies are truly cutting-edge...
There's really no way to explain this!
Every member of the archaeological research team was completely baffled. They hadn't solved a single mystery, but instead, they had unearthed even more mysteries in Shu Jiao's tomb.
Will they ever be able to find the truth in history in their lifetime?
The most, most, most important thing is!
Shu You brought out several bottles of pills from the tomb.
Nine hundred years!
The elixir, which was made 921 years ago, did not turn to ashes when its lid was opened. Instead, it remained crystal clear, round, and shiny, and even emitted a pleasant medicinal fragrance.
and!
This medicine is still usable!
It's 921, and it's still usable. It's one thing that science can't determine its exact ingredients, but this stuff supposedly has beauty benefits when ingested?!
Gan!
What on earth happened?!
This has left not only archaeologists bewildered, but also leading researchers in the biological and medical fields, who have collectively racked their brains and worked together overnight to set up more than a dozen research institutes.
Everyone was so busy they were completely overwhelmed.
The blue snake, which was tricked out of Shu Jiao's tomb, was brought to the laboratory and carefully fed with selected food, but it refused to eat.
Finally, having exhausted all other options, they searched the tomb for a long time before tentatively tossing it a gemstone.
ate.
It ate it!
But if you give it another piece, it won't eat it again.
Later, everyone discovered that it was picky about its food; it wouldn't eat anything of slightly lower quality. It only ate the kind that cost at least 50,000 yuan on the market, one of which could last for three days.
Everyone:...
That mutated bird, hey, even better, it eats verdigris!
Thumb frog, which eats pearls.
Moreover, if it weren't for someone from the Shu family acting as a stabilizing force in the research institute, these mutated animals would have killed everyone long ago. The toxins extracted from them are ten times stronger than those from Australian box jellyfish.
It's the effect of neurotoxins combined with sulfuric acid.
Three seconds to kill.
No solution.
These researchers were ecstatic, wishing they could spend 24 hours a day at the research institute, spending every day with these "little cuties," and lingering in the paradise of SCI.
the other side.
The archaeologist stayed on Miro Island, carefully flipping through the books. His obsessive dedication made Shu You a little worried.
She wouldn't know how to handle it if she suddenly died on the island.
I tried to persuade them several times, but it was no use.
They tirelessly flipped through books day and night, trying to find a little bit of "historical truth" within them.
As for Shu Jiao's subsequent sweet stories, they had absolutely no interest in them.
However, netizens are interested.
Keeping male concubines in ancient times was one thing, but to become related by marriage with the emperor who later rebelled in Daxing... what can I say about that?
That's interesting~~~
In a short time, topics such as "consciousness awakening", "don't marry down", "mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship", and "Shu Jiao's time travel theory or alien theory" became hot topics online.
"Wait! Jade Kingdom, this environmental description... Quick, bring up the map of the Northern Continent!"
Suddenly, an old man discovered a useful piece of information.
Just as I was adjusting the map, a phone call came in.
The old man looked up and saw it was his student. His brows immediately furrowed, and he answered the phone with a worried expression, "What trouble have you gotten into now?"
Did you not reveal my name?
"teacher!!!"
An excited female voice came from the other end of the phone, "Breaking news! I've discovered a double-layered cenotaph! The burial goods inside are extremely luxurious."
"Oh, whose is it?"
"do not know."
The girl shook her head. "Based on the available information, we can only determine that the tomb's occupant's surname was Shu. This tomb was built by her daughter, 'Shu'."
The tombstone reads: "Tomb of the late mother, née Shu. Daughter Shu, weeping and kneeling."
This is not right.
The old man immediately became serious.
The format of this inscription is incorrect. It lacks a name, place of origin, date of birth and death, epitaph, and even the names of the deceased's descendants are unclear.
It seems like they're deliberately hiding something.
Moreover, it's a cenotaph!
"This is a double-layered cenotaph."
The girl's voice continued, "The extravagance of the burial goods is no less than that of King Mu's tomb last year, and the scale is enormous. But at the very top, there is only a very ordinary coffin."
"In the main burial chamber, there were no remains, only two coarse cloth garments, one large and one small."
"It feels like they were poor before, so they were buried somewhere random, but later they became rich and built a luxurious mausoleum."
The old man listened patiently and carefully, then asked, "Is there any other information?"
"Have."
The girl added, "In the main burial chamber, there are inscriptions, but they are written very vaguely, even strangely."
She sent the old man a picture.
Yesterday's deeds died in the fire; today's deeds are reborn from the fire.
[Body like withered wood, heart like ashes, I borrow this physical form to make my way in the future.]
Surprising.
It's really weird.
Even the old man frowned when he saw it.
Who "died in the fire," and who "came back to life"?
Who has a body like withered wood and a heart like ashes, and who has "borrowed a skin to make a living"?
Who is buried in this cenotaph?
"anything else?"
The old man asked again, looking very confused.
"It's gone for now."
The girl sighed softly, "Teacher, I came to you to ask if you remember any wealthy people in history, especially maritime merchants, whose hometown was in District D..."
"No."
The old man pondered for a long time before replying, then asked, "How did you determine that he was a maritime merchant?"
"The burial goods were mostly from foreign countries. And they were all the most precious kind, rare items that money couldn't buy."
The girl took a few more photos and sent them to him, saying, "Teacher, could you please ask him again for me?"
"I suspect that the owner of the cenotaph may have had a split personality. Because of her drastic change in temperament, she was suspected by the ancients to be possessed by a wandering ghost, so they killed her."
Old man: …
What else do you want to ask?
If he doesn't know, how could anyone else know?
It's over.
Another unsolved mystery in history is about to emerge!
Then I thought about the ancient kingdom's disappearance mystery information that I couldn't find even if I died, the bunch of high-tech products unearthed from Shu Jiao's tomb whose principles I still haven't figured out, and the mutated creatures whose existence I haven't been able to figure out...
There's also the possibility of "reincarnation" in the unknown tombs recently excavated by his students.
They've been digging graves all these years, and it's all been for nothing!
what?
Why does he believe in reincarnation?
Then ask about the elixir that came out of Shu Jiao's tomb.
That thing... there's no way to explain it scientifically!
