Xie Qingfeng shook his head and guessed softly.
...
"Legend has it that after King Mu of Zhou twice campaigned against the Quanrong and pacified the west, in the thirteenth year of his reign, he once again launched a western expedition against Kunlun..."
"In 988 BC, King Mu of Zhou led his troops, carrying a large quantity of gold, silver, jewels, silk fabrics, jade artifacts, and exquisite handicrafts, on a tour from Chengzhou in the northwest. Wherever he passed, he was warmly and grandly welcomed by the local people..."
"Legend has it that at the place where the sun finally sets, the Queen Mother of the West gave King Mu of Zhou a grand reception and presented him with a large number of priceless treasures..."
"After King Mu of Zhou died, these rare treasures were buried with him, placed in his tomb by craftsmen, and buried deep underground, their location unknown to anyone..."
"The location of this mysterious royal tomb is recorded in the Warring States period silk manuscript..."
"If we find him, all the rare treasures will reappear, more than an ordinary person could spend in several lifetimes!"
As the stage play progressed...
The background of the Seven Star Lu Palace is gradually becoming clearer.
at the same time.
The images depict the ruined, blood-soaked tomb.
People also realized the extent of the damage and destruction suffered by the tombs after they were looted by grave robbers.
Often, there isn't enough time for professional archaeologists to remedy the situation.
The remains and burial objects in the tomb were mercilessly oxidized by the air.
Aside from the tomb raiders at the scene, the true colors and appearance of the remains at the time of burial will never be seen or known to the world.
"That's strange. It's clearly the tomb of King Mu of the Western Zhou Dynasty, so why is it called the Palace of the King of Lu during the Warring States Period?"
"There's a gap of nearly six hundred years between the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Warring States period!"
"Could it be that the scriptwriter made a mistake and got the tomb owner's name wrong?"
"It's inevitable that a story written so quickly will have some mistakes..."
Soon after, someone noticed the blind spot in the story.
I subconsciously took this as an oversight by screenwriter Wang Yueheng in his haste.
"I'm so conflicted! I want to see these tomb raiders explore ancient tombs."
"Yet they also fear that they might damage well-preserved and precious historical sites, and suffer the wrath of future generations..."
"Why can't the government protect these precious historical sites before tomb raiders do?"
"Nonsense, tomb raiders are just as skilled as top archaeologists."
"Didn't you hear what the protagonist Wu Xie said? These tomb raiders can deduce the location of tombs that archaeological experts can't find just by looking at the positions of the stars in the sky..."
As the plot unfolds...
For viewers witnessing the story of tomb raiding in China for the first time, it was like suddenly opening a door to a new world.
Shocked and amazed, viewers flooded the screen with their thoughts in the comments.
In the auditorium theater audience seats.
Many Asian students from Vietnam, Laos, or Singapore were even more excited than other Chinese students, as if they had been injected with adrenaline.
For these countries that rely on tourism.
Ordinary people, and even social elites, are more interested in stories related to historical sites.
Watching the scenes from "The Lost Tomb" slowly unfold on the stage.
They were even more curious whether their own country's tourist attractions could also fabricate such bizarre and fantastical stories to attract more visitors...
"Is Wang Yueheng planning to show everyone the splendor of ancient imperial tombs from the perspective of a tomb raider?"
"Indeed, no one has told archaeology-related stories from this perspective before..."
"He has a rich imagination; no wonder he's a talented writer who could produce phenomenal works like 'The Storm' and 'Joy of Life'!"
Tong Hua, who had arrived at the study early and was sitting at the computer desk watching the live broadcast, suddenly realized something.
My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally relaxed a little.
"But if it's just like a documentary, then this stage play seems to have no suspense at all..."
After understanding Wang Yueheng's intention, Tong Hua immediately felt a little worried about the future appeal of this stage play.
