hold treasure

"Yes."

Old Dog Wu nodded, and stood up crookedly, "So many people died, and an arm was lost, and most of the things they got were gone, but I didn't expect that there would be this left in the end."

Wang Xiaoliuer blinked his eyes, "This is the wine used for funerals. Judging by the appearance of this pot, it should have a history of at least 2000 years."

Wang Xiaoliuer shook it, heard the sound of clanging and water, and couldn't help but said, "There is indeed a part of it, but I don't recommend opening it."

Old Dog Wu was taken aback, "Why?"

"Um……"

Wang Xiaoliu'er hesitated for a moment, "This is the funeral wine in the ancient tomb, the funeral wine, I don't know if it was given to the living before, but after so many years, I guess it must not be drinkable anymore. "

Wang Xiaoliu'er looked at the shape of the wine jar again, and immediately said, "Master Wu, this thing, it seems, should be from the pre-Qin period. Do you know the identity of the owner of the tomb?"

"I guess I know."

As Wu Laogou said, he let out a long sigh, "If I'm not mistaken, the ancient tomb should be from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."

Wang Xiaoliuer was shocked, "Eastern Zhou Dynasty? The owner of the tomb is..."

"The owner of the tomb, we haven't seen it, but according to our understanding at the time, the owner of the tomb, in general, should be King Zhou Xie, or else, King Zhou Xie's wife, son or something."

"Zhou Xiewang."

Wang Xiaoliu'er's face changed slightly.

Speaking of King Zhou, many people must know King Wen of Zhou, King Zhou Wu, and King Zhou You. These three are all famous in history, but this King Zhou Xie is obviously not famous to modern people.

However, Wang Xiaoliu'er had read many history books, so she knew a little about this person.

King Zhou Xie, whose name is Zhou Yuchen, is said to be the son of King Zhou You, and it is also said that he is the younger brother of King Zhou You.

Back then, King Zhou You got the beauty Baosi and indulged in it, but Baosi was a very beautiful woman, but she had a problem, that is, she didn't smile.At that time, there was a rumor in the harem that this Bao Si was not a human being, but a monster. Otherwise, why couldn't she laugh?

After King Zhou You heard this, he was also very disturbed, so he studied why Bao Si didn't smile all day long, always wanting to make Bao Si happy.

Later, it wasn't because he had listened to some big daddy's words, but this careless guy played a game of "Fenghuo Opera" and made Bao Si laugh.

It's almost enough to play once, right?

He can't, is he still playing?

Play once, have fun once, play once, have fun again, and finally play yourself.

This is the allusion of the notorious "Princes of Fenghuo Opera" in history.

The feudal lords played with the beacon fire indirectly led to the killing of King You of Zhou, the abduction of Bao Si, and the fall of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

But the Zhou Dynasty did not stop there.

Immediately after the Western Zhou Dynasty, an Eastern Zhou Dynasty appeared. The first king of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was considered by many to be King Ping of Zhou. era.

In other words, at that time, there were two kings of Zhou, both of whom claimed to be orthodox.

One of them is King Ping of Zhou, and the other is King Xie of Zhou.

King Zhou Ping is the son of King Zhou You, and also the crown prince originally appointed by King Zhou You. He was born of the queen of King Zhou You, and his status is orthodox. Not a good man and a faithful woman. After Baosi gave birth to a son for King Zhou You, Baosi has been trying to trick King Zhou You to make his son the crown prince. Later, King Zhou You couldn't stand it anymore, so he abolished the former queen. The prince was also abolished, and Baosi was established as the queen, and Baosi's son was the prince.

But this incident completely angered a person. This person is the monarch of Shen Kingdom, known as Shen Hou in history.

It stands to reason that the affairs of the Zhou royal family have nothing to do with you as a subordinate country, but the problem is that the former queen who was abolished by King Zhou You was the daughter of Shen Hou, that is to say, Shen Hou was originally the father-in-law of King Zhou You .

As soon as he heard that his daughter was abolished and his grandson was also abolished, he was very angry. In addition, his good grandson, who later became King Ping of Zhou, came to encourage him. As soon as he slapped the table, he got up and asked rebel.

However, Shen Guo's own ability was not enough to shake the Zhou royal family, so this family went outside to unite with some nomads who were eyeing the Zhou royal family at that time. The most powerful of them was the dog army. King Zhou You killed King Zhou You, Quan Rong robbed a lot of property, and even snatched Baosi away, and this Marquis Shen jumped out after King Zhou You died to support his good The grandson inherited the great rule of the Zhou Dynasty, and King Ping of Zhou stepped onto the stage of history.

However, what King Ping Zhou did was very bad in the history at that time, because in fact, King Zhou Ping joined forces with the Quanrong people to kill his own father. Father, Huanlitong betrayed the country and hooked up with the Quanrong people. Just these two sons were cast aside by the world. Although relying on his grandfather to unite several princes and kings to support him at the time, it was embarrassing that he No one stopped him, but after he came to power, the princes from all walks of life looked down on him and refused to meet him. To put it bluntly, everyone didn't like to play with him, thinking he was smelly.

And the Zhou royal family, who was ruthlessly trampled by the Quanrong people, even sneered at him. Those royal orthodox also looked down on him, thinking that King Ping of Zhou killed the king and his father, so he was not qualified to inherit the throne at all. The next heir, that is, King Zhou Xie.

These two groups of people fought against each other, and each played their own way. Judging from the situation at the time, everyone was more inclined to Zhou Xiewang.

King Xie of Zhou, in principle, should also be the orthodox Zhou family, so King Xie Zhou received the support of the princes at that time.

But later, with the development of the historical process, Zhou Pingwang and Zhou Xiewang fought. What is surprising is that the relatively isolated and despised Zhou Pingwang actually won, but in fact, he won and lost.

It is said that he won because he defeated King Zhou Xie and became the only "king" in the world in name, but in fact, his victory was the result of a game between great powers.

The reason why King Ping of Zhou was able to win was because there was the support of Jin at that time. Jin was definitely one of the best big countries at that time, with a large place, strong strength and ambition.

When Shen Guo supported Zhou Pingwang, it was very beautiful, which made Jin State very envious.

Later, Shen Guo himself failed, and Jin Guo wanted to take over.

To put it bluntly, with the support of Shen Guo, King Zhou Ping was just a puppet.

Now that Shen Guo is dead, Jin Guo also wants to be the big brother himself, and also wants to play the addiction of "holding the emperor to make the princes". He supports King Zhou Ping not because of loyalty or anything. To put it bluntly, he supports Jin Guo for himself , in order to control public opinion.

Some people would say, why didn't he support Zhou Xiewang and Zhou Pingwang in order to control the Zhou royal family?

Fundamentally speaking, it was because King Ping of Zhou was weak.

King Zhou Xie had the support of many people at that time. Regardless of his real strength, he had an absolute advantage in terms of word of mouth. How many points?

But King Zhou Ping can't do it, King Zhou Ping is weak, just like the little emperor in the Three Kingdoms period, pitiful, no matter how he fiddles with it, so Jin Guo took action, attacked Zhou Xie Wang, and wiped out Zhou Xie Wang up.of

At this time, there is only one king in the world, but this king is also a puppet.

From then on, the era of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty began, as did the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

The Zhou Dynasty is divided into the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. There are two eras. In the Western Zhou Dynasty, the King of Zhou was still very powerful. In the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the King of Zhou was basically a decoration. There are princes from all walks of life.

Of course, after King Zhou Xie was wiped out, the people of King Zhou Xie disappeared and disappeared. Some said they were massacred, and some said they fled. Anyway, they never appeared in history, so that, until Today, there is still no record about the death of King Zhou Xie from the historical data. This group of people basically didn't make much fuss, and they were considered to have completely exited.

Even, Zhou Xiewang was rarely noticed in history.

So when Master Wu said that this ancient tomb might belong to King Zhou Xie, Wang Xiaoliuer was still shocked.

Old dog Wu was surprised to see Wang Xiaoliuer, but he was also surprised in his heart.

He could tell that Wang Xiaoliuer's expression showed that he might also know something about this "King Xie Zhou".

"Do you know King Zhou Xie?"

Old Dog Wu asked.

"how to say."

Wang Xiaoliuer hesitated for a moment, then rubbed his face, "I know a little bit, a monarch in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was destroyed."

"Correct."

Wu Laogou nodded, and while speaking, for some reason, two lines of tears came down, "After I knew the location of this ancient tomb, I asked many people to go there. Counting it, it was only a dozen times. This time, It's the closest it's ever been."

Wang Xiaoliu'er pursed her lips, feeling a little puzzled, "You, did you know that the tomb belonged to King Zhou Xie?"

"I know about it."

Old Dog Wu sighed, "Actually, that ancient tomb was left by Master Yao. It was a wish that Master Yao failed to fulfill."

Wang Xiaoliu'er was even more puzzled after hearing this, "Master Wu, let me tell you, don't mind, I think, with your current position of power, if you don't do this, you can already be considered rich and powerful, why bother?" Woolen cloth?"

"I understand your idea."

Old Dog Wu was still crying, "I'm already very rich, and money is not important to me. What I really care about is my life."

"That's not right."

Wang Xiaoliu'er spread his hands, "Since life is more important, why did you go into the mountain? Isn't that a joke with your own life?"

"I am already a dying person."

Old Dog Wu drooped his eyelids, "You are a miracle doctor, you should have seen it long ago, right? Most people in our line of work will not end well. I can live to this day, which is considered pretty good."

"When I came to see you last time, I saw something, but I didn't say anything."

Wang Xiaoliuer hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth, "Your condition is not very good, but it has nothing to do with your previous leg problems."

"I know I know."

Wu Laogou nodded, "My illness has been going on for many years. The doctor said that I can last for a few months at most. Otherwise, I wouldn't be in such a hurry to go in person."

"Do you want to fulfill a wish in your lifetime?"

"No, I want to give it a try before I die."

"You want to go to the ancient tomb to find a way to save your life."

"Correct."

Old Dog Wu nodded, raised his cloudy eyes, and looked at Wang Xiaoliuer, "My illness is terminally ill, and it cannot be cured at all. Unfortunately, Master Yao also has a similar problem. When I was arrested, it was similar to my current situation, so many times, I felt that this might be fate and retribution."

He curled his lips, picked up a pipe from one side, lit it, and continued, "This time, I went into the mountain and failed. The last chance is gone. I know, the time left for me Not much more. In fact, on the way back, I thought about it, let’s just forget about it. People, they’re all the same, they’re all going to die.”

Wang Xiaoliuer remained silent.

Old Dog Wu raised his eyelids, "Are you wondering, wondering, what am I looking for in the ancient tomb?"

"Could it be, is it the elixir of life?"

Wang Xiaoliuer smiled wryly and shrugged his shoulders. After Wu Laogou finished listening, he looked at Wang Xiaoliuer, and he nodded.

To Wang Xiaoliu'er's surprise, he nodded.

"Master Yao, before I went in, I didn't go out for a few years, and I was just studying this."

Wu Laogou said, looking at the map hanging on the wall from a distance, "He made a big one before, and I don't know which emperor's tomb he dug. He got a lot of good things. But he didn't pay much attention to it. Among those treasures, he was only interested in a volume of silk books. At that time, he was silent at home and didn't come out. He studied all day long and returned to all over the country to find Many experts and so on. We all thought that he might have found a treasure map or something, otherwise, how could he be so concerned? It turned out that he was researching, not a treasure map. For me, it doesn't matter, what he really quarrels with is one thing. That thing can turn the dead back to life and live forever."

"There is no such thing in this world!"

Wang Xiaoliuer tilted her body, looking very puzzled, "You really believe in immortality! As far as I know, there is basically no such thing as immortality! There is no such thing as fairy medicine!"

Wu Laogou nodded, "I used to think so, but later, I learned more about things, and I was shaken."

"Shaken?"

"Shaken."

Wu Laogou took another puff of cigarette, "Little brother, you are a capable person. I can come back this time thanks to what you gave me. I treat you as my own. So, I will tell you Let’s be honest. Master Yao has said more than once that he has two major regrets in his life. One is that he failed to excavate the Qin Mausoleum, and the other is that he failed to dig the Eastern Zhou Tomb. What's so good about the Eastern Zhou Tomb that it can be compared with Qin Shihuang's mausoleum?"

Wang Xiaoliuer blinked, "Then, you asked him?"

"Asked."

"Then, what did he say?"
