Chapter 146 The First Emperor
Chapter 145: First Emperor
Above the stone steps there is a pair of stone carved unicorns, with their heads raised and their chests looking into the distance.
The stone sculpture is very tall, ten or three feet tall, but the whole statue is not as vivid as the kirins of later generations, but is made in freehand carving.
The reason why Yun Lang was able to recognize that it was a pair of unicorns rather than something was entirely because of the scales on its body.
There are not many divine beasts with dragon heads and horse bodies, and the unicorn is the most common one.
Yun Lang looked at it very carefully. The origin of stone sculpture art originated in the north, and portrait sculpture art originated in the pre-Qin Dynasty.
Long ago, Yun Lang learned from history books that there was a statue of Meng Ben at the head of Xianyang Bridge. The statue was carrying a rope and seemed to be dragging the Xianyang Bridge without causing it to fall to the river.
This statue is three feet tall, and it is said that magical things often happen.
Walking from the flat ground to the Zhangtai, the steps are very high. It is difficult for Yun Lang to walk up step by step. I don’t know why the First Emperor built such a high staircase. Does he think he will become tall after he is resurrected?
In the middle of the steps are huge brick carvings, and each Qin brick is extremely huge. Just the complex Kuilong pattern on it is enough to make Yun Lang admire him.
Walking up the first step, Yun Lang looked back at Dazai in the distance, and saw that Dazai had opened the lead shell and was admiring the eye of the candle dragon inside the shell, not caring about Yun Lang's stay or not.
It doesn't matter now, no matter how Dazai looks at it, it doesn't matter...
Yun Lang turned his head and looked at the two huge golden men standing on the first step, sighed and prepared to continue climbing up.
Two golden men held a giant sword and the other held a giant axe. The giant sword and the giant axe crossed each other and blocked the way forward. No matter who wanted to pass, they could only get through the gap between the giant sword and the giant axe crossed each other.
As soon as he approached the giant sword, the giant axe, and the short crossbow that Yun Lang hung on his waist floated up. If it weren't for the hook, it would have been stuck to the giant sword and the giant axe.
The crossbow arrow automatically left the bag, and stuck one branch to the giant sword. The dagger in Yun Lang's arms also seemed to be ready to move.
There is a small stone tablet beside the giant sword and the giant axe, with the word "removal of armor" written on it. Yun Lang leaned over and passed by the giant sword and axe under the ground. Others may be surprised. For Yun Lang, two magnets are nothing.
He also took back the crossbow arrow. Although he was struggling to walk out and went far, the impact of magnetism on metal was already very small.
Xiang Ji may not have much attention to the wealth in the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, but these twelve golden men were too important to him.
He was the invincible commander in the world, but not a wise ruler. When he led his army to storm the world, Liu Bang was taking his subordinates to rest in Shu. When he calmed down the world and prepared to end his habit of wandering and fighting and began to find a suitable place to build a country and establish a career, Liu Bang took him armed the army of Teeth out of the mountain.
He defeated Liu Bang countless times. Every time, after Liu Bang was defeated, he could return to Shu to recuperate and prepare to make a comeback. Xiang Ji was still consuming his originally small vitality.
In the battle at Gaixia, Xiang Yi was defeated. It was not that he was not brave, but that the enemy's weapons were sharper than his armor, the enemy's armor was stronger than his, the enemy's soldiers ate more than his soldiers, and the enemy's soldiers wore warmer than his soldiers...
Liu Bang was a loser in front of Xiang Jie all his life. He only won once, and the world's surname was Liu from now on!
If the title borrowed the twelve golden men... history might be rewritten.
Standing in the Qin Dynasty's hall, missing Xiang Jie and Liu Bang, it is obviously inappropriate. However, the Qin Empire is only left with this tomb, and I think the First Emperor will not have any objection.
This is the situation is better than that of people. If it is still the era of the Qin Dynasty, just countless iron cavalry and armored soldiers can make Yun Lang respect him enough.
The Great Qin State won the world with its iron cavalry, but lost its power because of its stronger iron cavalry, which is very fair in itself.
Qin State is still dark, so except for the thick black like night on the Zhangtai, there is only the dark red blood-like black left.
A pottery figurine with hands spread out stood on the last step. Unlike the mighty six golden men in front, this guy looked very thin. Since he had already stretched out his hand, he always had to give something.
Yun Lang took out a piece of golden cake picked up from outside and put it on his hand...
Gold is a good thing. Yun Lang used to think so. When the gold was placed in his hand, the guy's belly cracked and a set of black crowns was exposed.
Yun Lang took it out and found that this was a set of clothing belonging to Dazai. It should have looked very luxurious back then. After decades of baptism, even if no one has worn it, the clothes look very old.
Yun Lang shook the dust on his clothes and put it on. However, as soon as his feet were put in, the upper cracked when his uppers cracked. He had to put on his shoes again, took the golden cake from the eunuch's hand, and gritted his teeth to meet the first emperor in the Han civilization.
The Zhangtai is extremely dilapidated and there is wind here, so those gorgeous silk curtains have fallen, like the passing Qin Empire.
When he came to the world of Qin, Yun Lang naturally did not dare to act rashly. He imitated Dazai's appearance and shouted loudly: "I trust Dazai Zhangtai Yunlang to meet His Majesty the First Emperor!"
Perhaps it was a little louder, and there was a rumbling sound on the board platform. A pole used to hang the curtain fell off the roof. The dust stained on the curtain splashed, making Yun Lang's face full of dust.
After the smoke and dust were gone, Zhangtai became an ancient temple that no one cares about, and all the desolation, desolation and dilapidation can be found here.
Yun Lang sighed and stepped into the hall. He had to walk in for the last step. The reason why Dazai outside was not dead was waiting for him to put on his new Dazai clothes to see him for the last time.
Yun Lang has seen many emperors' palaces, including those who have seen the Qing Dynasty in Beijing, those who have seen the Song Dynasty in Kaifeng Prefecture, and those who have seen the simulated Tang Empire in Xi'an. The Zhangtai of the Qin Dynasty in front of him was not beyond Yun Lang's expectations.
The huge palace was full of thick pillars. Standing at the door and looking in, it was like seeing a forest of pillars.
There is a fully armed armored soldier behind each pillar. Each armored soldier looks like he is selective and ferocious. Yun Lang has no doubt that these pillars and the warriors behind the pillar are still lethal. Just look at the holes in the pillars and the sharp weapons in the warrior's hands.
A golden cake was thrown out by Yun Lang. The golden cake made a series of crisp sounds on the smooth ground, and finally stopped on a floor and wandered around.
Yunlang threw a golden cake down the floor with every step. When he arrived at the twenty-stop position Dazai said, he stopped firmly, waved his sleeves and took a step back, and then took another step forward. After performing the etiquette like a dance, he knelt on the floor and said loudly: "My new Dazai Yunlang of the Jontai Palace greets His Majesty the First Emperor."
The hall was silent and Yun Lang didn't care. He stared at the huge coffin and said, "The fourth-generation Grand Priest Gu Yun has now dying and his blood is not long. Therefore, I recommend that I serve Your Majesty as the fifth-generation Grand Priest. I also ask Your Majesty to allow Gu Yun to retire. Yun Lang takes his new position. I will definitely live up to your Majesty's entrustment, guard the tomb, and wait for Your Majesty to return."
The First Emperor's coffin was lonely and silent. Neither had a thin and shriveled claw lifted the coffin and grabbed Yun Lang and chewed it. There was no strange voice saying the word "correct". What left Yun Lang was still silent.
Yun Lang had long regarded this journey as a visit to the grave, so naturally he did not expect anyone to respond. Even if the body of the First Emperor was in the coffin, it was just a symbol.
Yun Lang took out a bundle of bamboo slips from his backpack and recited loudly: "My minister, Dazai Zhangtai, Yun Lang, gave a speech to His Majesty the First Emperor.
Now that the Han Dynasty is in power, the fake emperor Liu Che has the power of a tiger and wolf. He searched for the righteous men of our Great Qin like boiling oil in a fierce fire. He also harassed the remnants of Xiang's family frequently. I vowed to fight back to death. In less than three years, the Lingwei had been killed and injured, but the Grand Priest Gu Yun still..."
