Chapter 189 Mysterious Woman
After hearing Xu Jingheng's words, the other guests all moved closer to the two of them. No one wanted to miss such a good live teaching.
Jin Suiran had been following behind Xu Zhao. The murals in the tomb were huge and looked a bit scary. She nervously grabbed the protective suit behind Xu Zhao's waist.
The three photographers seemed to have made an appointment. Two of them took pictures of the guests, and the remaining one pointed the camera at the mural, slowly moving the lens from left to right to record the entire mural.
The audience squatting in the guest's live broadcast room can only see part of the mural through the camera, while those squatting in another live broadcast room can see the complete mural.
When the program is officially broadcast, the two shots will be edited together in post-production to make it easier for viewers who have not seen it to watch.
Zheng Wen, who was watching the monitor in the tent, was grinning so hard that his mouth almost reached his ears, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were so many that they could kill several mosquitoes.
The screen of the mobile phone in my hand is showing the live broadcast popularity sent by the live broadcast platform.
Their live broadcast room has already ranked in the top ten of the popularity list, and is showing a trend of catching up with the top three.
“This episode will definitely be a big hit after it airs!”
…
In the main coffin chamber.
Xu Jingheng stood in front of the murals and identified them one by one.
The young man sitting on the left in the mural should be Shen Lingge, and the people sitting opposite them should be Yu Chengyan and his wife.
As for the woman sitting next to Shen Lingge.
This is also the most puzzling part of this mural.
Everyone's face was clear except hers, which was completely gray.
Some people have suggested that the paint may have fallen off due to air movement, thus destroying the woman's face.
However, this speculation was refuted by other archaeologists the next second after it was put forward.
The facial expressions of other characters are clearly visible, so why is it that only this face has lost its shape? Moreover, apart from the face, the clothes on the woman's body and the accessories in her hair are all portrayed very clearly and are even well preserved.
This makes some experts suspect that perhaps, this face may not have been painted with facial features in the beginning.
But why didn't the face of a woman who could accompany Shen Lingge to meet Yu Chengyan and was specially painted so delicately be left behind?
Xu Jingheng expressed his doubts.
Xu Zhao knew at a glance that it was herself, but if she told the truth, how should she explain it?
So he pretended to say it casually, “Perhaps, this girl didn’t want to stay. That’s why Shen Lingge deliberately erased it.”
Also, who is this woman's identity?
Judging from her clothes, she was not gorgeous, even ordinary. She did not look like a daughter of a noble family, but more like an ordinary person.
In the ancient times with strict hierarchy, if it was an ordinary person, what kind of opportunity would he have to meet Shen Lingge and sit with him?
This mysterious woman has become another unsolved mystery.
Xu Jingheng: "I'm really curious about this woman's identity."
"Could it be the woman that Shen Lingge likes?" Tang Qianshuo suddenly popped his head up and walked to the other side of Xu Zhao. He looked up and felt that he could not see the entire mural, so he took two steps back.
Xu Zhao immediately shook his head to deny it without any thought.
Xu Jingheng asked: "How do you say that?"
Xu Zhao replied: "Chen Lingge at this time looked like he was fifteen or sixteen years old, a minor, and the woman, judging from her figure and body shape, was at least in her twenties. There was an age difference between the two."
"But I remember that Emperor Zhaohe and Concubine Su were also in a relationship where the woman was older than the man."
Sun Runchen's voice appeared again behind Xu Zhao.
When she looked back, she could only see a group of guests wearing protective clothing, and could only tell who was who based on their height and body shape.
Xu Zhao: “…”
How could she explain this?
There was silence for a moment.
Sun Runchen was probably also regretting why he spoke so quickly. It was not common in ancient times for a woman to be older than a man, so it was impossible for two of them to appear at once.
"I'm just stating my opinion. Everyone has a different understanding," Xu Zhao said, shrugged, and continued walking to the next mural.
She couldn't explain the murals at the back, as she had never witnessed them. She could only explain them based on what was painted on the murals and her own understanding.
Fortunately, the following pictures are relatively easy to understand. They are basically about easy-to-recognize things like his diplomatic mission to the State of Jin, marrying and having children, ascending the throne, and unifying the four kingdoms.
Even so, Xu Jingheng was shocked by his daughter's insights.
Could it be that my daughter has always had a talent for archaeology, but it was not revealed when she was young, but now that she is older, it has become more apparent?
Xu Jingheng even began to consider whether to persuade his daughter to pursue a doctorate in archaeology, perhaps so that she could inherit his legacy in the future.
The next second, a basin of cold water was poured over.
"Dad, I have a stable job now, and making money makes me happier."
You know your own father best. He has been devoted to academics for so many years. He never hides his facial expression and his thoughts are all written on his face.
With her understanding of her father, she could tell at a glance what her father was thinking. Xu Zhao leaned against Xu Jingheng and whispered his thoughts.
Some unpleasant things must be nipped in the bud!
"Okay, I don't mean anything else." Xu Jingheng didn't expect that his thoughts were seen through by his daughter. He smiled awkwardly to hide his embarrassment.
…
Xu Jingheng then began to introduce other layout objects in the main coffin chamber.
Several guests were also busy. They knew they couldn't miss such a good opportunity.
When guests hear something they don’t understand, they will boldly raise it, some by putting forward their own ideas, and some by raising their own questions.
Only Xu Zhao, after greeting the photographer, silently walked to the high platform in the middle of the main coffin room, stepped onto the stairs and came to the coffin.
Xu Zhao didn't know much about the shape of the coffin, he just roughly observed the patterns on it.
A thousand years have passed, but the colors on the coffin are still bright. Walking around the coffin and reaching the other end, Xu Zhao seemed to see something and squatted down.
There seemed to be words carved on both sides of one end of the coffin. At first glance, they looked like couplets. Only when you got closer could you see clearly what was written on them.
On the left side it says "Those who see the coffin will get rich", and on the right side it says "Those who open the coffin will die".
Xu Zhao: “…”
The four characters on the right have the style of being placed for tomb robbers in ancient times.
But the sentence on the left is inexplicably modern.
She remembered that when she saw horror videos on TikTok before, this sentence was all over the comments.
She remembered that she had never said anything like this to Shen Lingge.
In other words, if she said this to Shen Lingge, then she would travel through time at least once more.
But what is the opportunity?
The previous times of time travel were all through some things, what would it be this time? Xu Zhao squatted in front of the coffin, staring at the eight words in front of him.
Could it be this coffin?
Xu Zhao's eyes were determined and he raised his hands which he had just subconsciously clenched.
