I created Qin Tianjian in modern times

No one could answer Professor Zhang's question, because even Han Feng and others could not understand the current situation.

The scene is both strange and shocking, and can only be seen by standing on the 99th jade steps.

In other words, only by reaching the top can you see the mysterious figures of those people!

To Qin Shihuang, they are more important than anything else in the world?

Otherwise, why would it be respected so much and engraved in the most important position?

Zhang Xiaoxian immediately recorded what she saw, and the only archaeologist who carried a film camera immediately raised his camera to take a picture of it.

However, Han Feng stopped him: "This is a picture formed by the terrain, light effects and other factors. Don't waste the film. It's impossible to take a picture of it."

Professor Zhang agreed with this, and the archaeological team could only reluctantly put away the film camera.

The scene before him was too bizarre. The First Emperor was portrayed in such detail that even the expression on his face could be shown, but for some reason, the people opposite him were so blurry that he could only vaguely make out a few figures.

What is the reason for this?

Since it was recorded, why was it deliberately hidden?

"Um, did you count how many figures there are?"

Just at this moment, Wen Wenbin's voice suddenly came.

He scratched his head and said uncertainly, "I just counted, is it five people?"

Hearing this, everyone was speechless.

Zhu Qingyang scolded: "Wen Wenbin, your train of thought is really strange. You still have the energy to count now? What are you counting for..."

Zhu Qingyang helped Wen Wenbin count them, and then replied, "Yes, there are exactly five figures. Then, Wen Wenbin, what do you want to say?"

Wen Wenbin scratched his head and said, "Our 788 Exploration Team also has exactly five people..."

"There are five of us too..." As soon as Wen Wenbin said this, everyone was speechless.

"It's indeed a coincidence that there are five people in total, but what does this have to do with us?" Zhu Yingying asked puzzledly.

Facing the doubts, Wen Wenbin laughed dryly: "It's okay, I just said it casually, I think it's quite interesting. Don't look at me like that..."

Everyone stared at Wen Wenbin as if he was a fool, as if wondering why he was so honest.

Unable to bear everyone's gaze, Wen Wenbin shrank back in embarrassment.

He just mentioned it casually because he didn't want to remain silent like the young man. It was because of his personality, but he simply couldn't get a word in.

I didn't expect this casual remark to cause such a big reaction...

But then again, the blurry figures that made Qin Shihuang salute, if we only look at the number of people, does match the number of people in the 788 Exploration Team.

But the problem is that the two are two thousand years apart and have nothing to do with each other. Wen Wenbin is just forcing a connection. It's really speechless!

After this little episode, everyone's attention was once again focused on the scene behind the stairs.

Everyone felt very strange about the scene before them, and could not explain it no matter what.

As an emperor who will be remembered forever, it is impossible for Qin Shihuang to perform or return a gift to people of his time.

So, who are these five blurry figures with tattered clothes, bloodstains, and seemingly serious injuries?

What virtue and ability did they have to make Qin Shihuang bow to them?

This is really incredible and puzzling!

However, according to historical documents, this scene does not make sense in any way.

"Forget it, if you can't figure it out, just stop thinking about it. This is archaeological work and is not within the scope of our mission." Han Feng said helplessly and turned away.

Only then did they suddenly discover that there was another world behind them.

The high platform in front of him was made entirely of precious jade, with eight pillars standing on both sides, each of which was placed with a fist-sized luminous pearl.

There are no dragons and phoenixes carved on these eight pillars, but clear water patterns.

There are four mermaid candles placed under each pillar, and the cold and dim light can barely illuminate the eight pillars.

In the center of the hall, there are four alchemy furnaces.

In the middle was a coffin, and what they didn't expect was that the coffin was red.

The alchemy furnace at the rear is the largest, more than two people tall, and there seem to be quite a few mermaid candles placed inside the furnace.

Two thousand years have passed, and it seems that he is still refining pills.

The other three alchemy furnaces are slightly smaller and are placed on both sides of the coffin.

In front of the largest alchemy furnace, between the coffin, there was a chair made of pure gold, and there was a black bat marked on it.

There was still flames lingering in the four-cauldron alchemy furnace, as if a thousand years had passed, and the true fire in the furnace was still burning.

This place looks like a workbench, and the lanterns around it are obviously used for alchemy.

And that pure gold chair seems to be the resting place for the owner here.

From this point of view alone, it is enough to make it clear that this person is extraordinary.

Zhu Qingyang observed the red coffin and the Bagua diagram below, and said thoughtfully: "In that era, red coffins were rare. Coupled with the Bagua diagram below, it reminds me of a very ancient art - soul-nourishing art!"

Hearing this, Han Feng asked in confusion: "What is this?"

Zhu Qingyang frowned and said, "The ancients believed that after death, although the body disappears, the soul is immortal and will enter reincarnation to be reborn. And this soul-nourishing technique is to nourish the soul here after the body dies, and find a suitable body to be reborn."

"Is this true?" Han Feng asked in surprise.

In this regard, Zhu Qingyang gently shook his head: "It should be just a legend. After all, this is against the will of heaven and against the law of reincarnation. But from this we can see that the person buried here should be a person who is very knowledgeable in alchemy. Perhaps this was also a hope for him more than two thousand years ago..."

With doubts, the members of the archaeological team quickly began to inspect the furnaces and even found some elixirs that had long been decayed inside.

Looking at these pills, Professor Zhang sighed: "It seems that Qin Shihuang was obsessed with immortality until his death. It's a pity that no one in the world can make an elixir of immortality, otherwise the world would be in chaos, right?"

Professor Zhang did not notice that when he said this, several team members subconsciously glanced at Bai Hua.

When it comes to matters of immortality, it seems that Bai Hua is the only one who has more say.

Zhu Qingyang's attention was completely focused on the pure gold chair.

He walked around the chair several times and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration: "It's made of pure gold, how luxurious. If I could sit on it, I wonder if it would feel the same as an ordinary chair." As he said that, Zhu Qingyang tried to sit on it.

Seeing this scene, Han Feng immediately said in a stern voice: "Master Cat, be careful, it will be bad if you trigger the mechanism!"

"Crack!"

However, as if in response to Han Feng, the moment Zhu Qingyang sat down, a mechanical sound was heard.

This sound really caused a lot of trouble for the archaeological team, so they all looked around nervously.

However, there were no arrows flying in the sky as imagined, nor any mercury or poisonous insects. Instead, the coffin in front of Zhu Qingyang suddenly opened a crack.

In an instant, Han Feng and others focused their attention on the red coffin, and Zhu Qingyang stood up in fright, not knowing what had happened.

The ancient coffin that was thousands of years old actually opened by itself. This scene was terrifying no matter how you looked at it.

If you don't know, you might think someone pushed open the coffin lid...

But there seemed to be nothing unusual. After the coffin was opened a crack, the surroundings returned to peace again.

Han Feng and the others looked at each other and walked towards the coffin.

After checking to make sure there were no other mechanisms, the archaeological team members came forward to help, and they worked together to open the red coffin.

I thought that after opening it, I would see the remains of rotting corpses, or at least a foul smell.

But after actually opening the coffin, everyone was surprised to find that there was only one set of clothes inside.

"Is it a cenotaph?" Professor Zhang pushed his glasses in surprise. "What's going on? Logically speaking, there was no such custom as a cenotaph during the Qin Dynasty. Who is buried here? Why is there no body?"

This is indeed a difficult problem faced by everyone.

It is not difficult to see that this Xianfang Temple was built for this person, but in the end there was no his body in the coffin, which means that he was not buried at that time.

Then who is the owner of this tomb? It becomes a little confusing.

The clothes in the coffin have long since weathered and are almost unrecognizable from their original appearance.

However, someone soon noticed that there were no other burial objects in the coffin except clothes.

This is very confusing.

Back then, Qin Shihuang completely replicated the capital city of Xianyang, which means there must have been a large hall called Xianfang Hall at that time.

Judging from the current situation, this should be the place where elixirs were specially refined for Qin Shihuang.

This means that the coffin placed here must have been specially prepared for someone.

Looking at the chair made of pure gold, it is not difficult to guess that this person must be of extraordinary identity, otherwise why would Qin Shihuang make a golden chair for him?

But why is there no burial object in the coffin? This is really a bit unreasonable!

In doubt, Zhu Qingyang carefully observed the coffin which only contained clothes, and suddenly found that there seemed to be a jade scroll faintly visible under the clothes.

He took out the jade scroll out of curiosity, only to find a few lines of words written on it.

However, when he finished reading these few lines carefully, his expression changed instantly, and he couldn't help but screamed: "This... this... is really a ghost!"

Seeing Zhu Qingyang's huge reaction, Han Feng and others quickly surrounded him.

However, they found that the words on it were completely incomprehensible.

Professor Zhang, the only one who could recognize ancient characters, also came over, but soon the expression on his face was exactly the same as Zhu Qingyang's, full of horror.

"What's going on here?" Zhu Yingying asked anxiously, "What exactly is written on it? Tell me! Why are you playing dumb here?"

Zhu Qingyang's expression changed repeatedly, he seemed to want to say something but hesitated, and he looked like he had difficulty opening his mouth.

After everyone asked him repeatedly, he slowly said, "It says here: Respectfully welcome the great masters of the future generations to come!"

Having said this, Zhu Qingyang could no longer speak, and his voice began to tremble.

"Who are you welcoming? Please tell me clearly!" Han Feng asked with a stronger tone.

But the one who answered him was not Zhu Qingyang, because his lips were trembling and he couldn't speak.

The one who answered Han Feng was Professor Zhang, who was also in a state of shock and answered instinctively: "There are three numbers written in Qin Xiaozhuan under the jade axis..."

"What number?" Han Feng asked hurriedly, frowning.

Professor Zhang swallowed hard and answered, "Five! Four! Three!"

In an instant, the scene fell into an eerie state of silence.

Only the sound of everyone's heartbeat could be heard in the quiet environment, but it was beating exceptionally fast, as if foreshadowing everyone's mood at the moment!

At this moment, everyone understood why Zhu Qingyang and Professor Zhang were so shocked that they were speechless!

Because, the jade scroll left behind thousands of years ago actually mentioned the three numbers "5, 4, and 3"!

Moreover, was it expected that the people who would come to Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum and open the coffin with their own hands a thousand years later would be the 788 Exploration Team?

Otherwise, why would we “respectfully welcome the arrival of great people from future generations”?

Or is this just a coincidence?

For a moment, even Han Feng and the others were a little confused and fell into a state of bewilderment...

This is the first time since I started the mission that I have encountered a situation that is beyond my control and even beyond my understanding.

It seems that the deeper you go into Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum, the more things that cannot be explained.

Why would a scroll written thousands of years ago say "Respectfully welcome the coming of the great masters of the future generations"? It even mentions the numbers "5, 4, 3".

Doesn’t this coincide with the arrival of the 788 Exploration Team?

The prophecy about Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum unexpectedly coincided with the arrival of the 788 Exploration Team.

But how is this possible?

After all, the 788 Exploration Team was only established in 1974, only half a year has passed, and it is more than two thousand years away from the Qin Dynasty!

Even if Qin Shihuang had experts around him, it would be impossible for him to predict the future and know what would happen a thousand years later, right?

"It's incredible!"

"What on earth is going on? This is too mysterious..."

"Could it be just a coincidence? Maybe the ancients just said it as a joke, and they didn't expect it to happen to be right?"

Everyone gathered in front of the red coffin, looking at each other. Apart from the coffin, they didn't find anything else.

But this jade axis left everyone puzzled.

Who was the person who was supposed to be buried in this coffin? What was the meaning of him leaving this jade scroll behind?

What does the number 788 mentioned on the jade axis represent?

These doubts lingered in the minds of the exploration team members for a long time, like a conversation that had taken place thousands of years ago, causing the members of the 788 Exploration Team to break out in cold sweats.

Even Professor Zhang was at a loss. He had been studying archaeology for most of his life and had never encountered such a bizarre thing.

There are indeed countless secrets hidden in the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang...

No one had any idea what was happening before their eyes.

But the investigation cannot stop here and not continue.
