There is God's will in the dark.

Xu You and Qingming ignored the shocked eyes of the Xuyi County Magistrate and conducted a preliminary survey of Tieshan Temple and the surrounding areas, which almost confirmed that this was the treasure-hiding place recorded in the God of Heaven and God Zhu Wanfang Tu.

However, Tieshan Temple has experienced wars many times. The buildings are now newly built decades ago, and there are not many imprints of Zhangjiao from that era. It is difficult to find the treasure directly according to the tips of the treasure map.

However, Xu You's status is also different from Lin Tongtian who sneaked into Heming Mountain and stole the Five Talisman Sutra. As the saying goes, great power can produce miracles, but it is impossible to use tricks, and brute force can be used.

He quickly ordered Shanzong to transfer 5,000 troops from Xuzhou to Tieshan Temple. The martial law was 20 miles away. He ordered Zu Qi to take the elites from the Ministry of Works to Xuyi, recruit more than 10,000 soldiers and people in the county and county to carry out excavation operations in a noble manner.

Official, that's so tough!

He kept digging for more than 20 days and encountered various technical problems during this period, but they were successfully solved under Zu Yan's organizational difficulties.

Xu You was in charge of the mountain temple and commanded and coordinated all aspects, ensuring that everyone would do their best. In the early morning of the seventh day of the seventh month, when the sky was about to break out, as the rooster sang white, he finally found the underground palace.

The moment it opened, golden light shone out everywhere, as if there was a sun hidden inside!

Everyone was shocked.

The nine dragons are several people tall, and the golden dragons cast in pure gold are more than ten feet long, with a lifelike appearance, with a fang-dance and aura, giving people an absolute sense of oppression from the front.

Behind the golden dragon are piled up like mountains of gold cakes, gold bowls, gold plates, gold Ruyi, gold Buddha, gin wine glasses, etc., countless.

Roughly estimated, it is approximately 130,000 to kilograms. (One kilogram is 224 grams)

This is a wealth that can make anyone crazy about it. No wonder Fengmen has not given up for decades. Many Tianshi masters, Zhu Zhi, Yang Rongying and others have had so many entangled love, hate and love affair around it...

People die for money, birds die for food,

No one can be spared!

Zu Qiong exclaimed: "I didn't expect that it was said that gold in China disappeared since the Western Han Dynasty, and there was such a huge amount hidden here alone."

Xu You smiled and said, "Getting the world depends on the people's hearts, not on the amount of gold, silver and jewelry. Zhang Jiao's fate is enough to be a warning to those who come later."

...

The amount of gold reserved in the Western Han Dynasty was unknown. Later generations speculated that it was 500,000 to 600,000 kilograms, which should actually be greater than this amount. By the Eastern Han Dynasty, these huge amounts of gold suddenly disappeared.

Therefore, the mystery of gold loss has always been one of the hot topics on the streets and alleys in later generations.

Why disappear?

It is roughly divided into four statements. One is the Buddhist theory of gold, Gu Yanwu, Zhao Yi and Chen Zhi all held this statement, but gold disappeared on a large scale in the early Eastern Han Dynasty. At that time, Buddhism was in full swing, and this pot could not be put on the Buddha's head;

First, the theory of foreign trade export. Peng Xinwei and Fu Zhufu held this statement, but foreign trade between the Han Dynasty was exporting goods, and exchanged for gold and silver, which was also untenable;

First, the theory of burial and burial. Tang Renwu held this statement, but almost all the more important Han tombs were stolen later. Why did the stolen gold not re-enter the circulation field? However, at that time, there were still a large number of ordinary merchants and officials who also hid gold, buried it underground and disappeared with the war.

Another one, which many people later believed, was that gold was brass theory in the Western Han Dynasty. This is the most confusing and actually has doubts.

"Han Shu? Food and Memorandum" says: "There are three levels of gold, gold is the upper, platinum is the middle, and red gold is the lower." The words are clearer. Gold is what we call today, platinum is what we call today, and red gold is what we call today's copper.

Xu Shen's "Shuowen Jiezi" by Xu Shen of the Eastern Han Dynasty can also prove that the fourteenth volume of the book has explanations of entries such as "gold, five-color gold", "silver, white gold", and "copper, red gold".

Therefore, the gold in the Western Han Dynasty should be gold.

Overall, gold in the Spring and Autumn Period refers to copper, gold from the Warring States Period to the Eastern Han Dynasty refers to gold. After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, if there is a unit of measurement added to the rewarded gold, it is gold. If it is not added, it should be copper coins. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, gold refers to silver alone, and adding "two" refers to gold.

All dynasties cannot be generalized.

...

Seeing the underground palace scene in front of him, Xu You thought that the theory of burying the burial of the cellar was the most reasonable. Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban Army was in trouble in the world. I don't know how many wealthy families were robbed, how many tombs of noble relatives were dug, and the gold he robbed was buried in Tieshan Temple. If it weren't for all kinds of chances, there would definitely be no chance to see the light of day again.

By analogy, there should be many similar gold hidden in the cellar, but with the chaos at the end of the dynasty, the warheads suddenly swept across the world, and all the insiders were killed and injured, and thus lost.

Because the nine golden dragons were so ostentatious, Xu You asked Zu Yan to melt on the spot, recast it into gold nuggets, and all of them were shipped back to the capital and filled into the national treasury.

The excavation of the treasures of God caused a sensation. Wei Ting expressed his congratulations sourly. Hou Guan Cao accepted He Ru's suggestion and began to spread prophecies in Jiangdong: Nine dragons appear, the universe is in chaos, and the emperor in white comes out of Mingshan.

Mingshan is also Mingyushan.

The prophecy and rumors reached Xu You's ears. He smiled at Zhan Wenjun and Yu Daozhen and said, "Just report my name directly..."

Zhan Wenjun said: "Do you want the secret office to arrest people?"

Xu You looked at Yu Daozhen and said, "What do you think?"

Yu Daozhen said: "It depends on what Xiaolang means... Anyway, the treasure of God appears in the world because of Xiaolang, and nine golden dragons shock the world. Maybe it can take the opportunity to add fuel to the fire. Then the day of Zen will be within reach..."

"Do you think the time is up?"

Zhan Wenjun and Yu Daozhen looked at each other, and Zhan Wenjun said, "Five years of hard work, the people of Jiangdong will return to their husbands. I think it's time."

Yu Daozhen said: "The military power is in hand, the court is arbitrary, the clans are bowing down, all states, counties, and counties are all wings. The people know the Taiwei but do not know that there is an emperor. The northern border is boundless and the barbarians have no hidden worries. If this is not the time, then Wang Mang cannot usurp the Liu family's world..."

"You are cursing that I am Wang Mang..."

Yu Daozhen smiled and said, "Where can Wang Mang compare with Xiao Lang? But Xiao Lang can naturally do what Wang Mang can do..."

Xu You said calmly: "Then according to what you said, use the prophecies and rumors of the Northern Wei Dynasty and burn another fire. If the Empress Dowager is smart, she will take the initiative to come to me to talk about abdication!"

On the eve of the great change in Jiangdong, the Northern Wei Dynasty was actually not too much. Perhaps Xu You's excavation of the treasure of the God of Heaven had exhausted Yuan Yu's last bit of energy. He knew that the deadline had come, so he sent eunuchs to summon the prince to the palace that night and prepare.

Unexpectedly, the eunuch who passed the order had been secretly bought by Lu Lingzi. He went to the Second Highness's mansion first and reported the matter. Yuan Dun felt like he had lost his parents and cried, "The father is so cruel..."

Lu Lingzi had a pretty face and said, "Why are you crying? It's over here. We can only do it without stopping. Let's take the initiative!"
