Chapter 1878 Magical Sword

In 494 BC, after the Wu State defeated the Yue State, the Yue King Gou Jian saved the country from destruction by offering the peerless beauty Xi Shi.

Then Gou Jian was forced to fight hard for 20 years, and finally counterattacked the state of Wu.

After a series of fierce battles, Gou Jian finally destroyed the state of Wu and became the last overlord in the Spring and Autumn Period.

As Gou Jian's sword, this sword is naturally of great importance, but why does it appear in the tomb of a Chu state?

From a historical analysis, Gou Jian once married his daughter to King Zhao of Chu in order to win over the state of Chu against the state of Wu.

Feeling that giving up his daughter was not enough, Gou Jian gave his sword to King Chu Zhao. King Chu Zhao couldn't put it down, and later gave it to his favorite son. The owner of the tomb where the sword was found should be Descendants of the son of King Zhao of Chu.

Of course, this is not the point. Please move to the next door for the plot about antiques!

The point is the magic of this sword, one of which is its sharpness.

According to the recollections of archaeologists at the time, this sword was sharper than imagined. When it was first taken out, it was so cold and sharp that one of the team members cut his finger without paying attention, causing bleeding.

When testing the sharpness of the sword, the sword cut through 16 layers of white paper with just a little force.

Obviously, judging from the general level of bronze weapons in the Spring and Autumn Period, it should be difficult to find such a sharp sword. This is one of the doubts.

The second puzzling thing is the lack of rust.

Anyone with relevant knowledge knows that although bronze is not as easy to rust as iron, rust is inevitable because it is metal after all.

Judging from the antiques that have been discovered, especially the bronze weapons of the same era as the Goujian Sword, they were all completely different when they were unearthed.

For example, the famous Fuchai Spear of King Wu was unearthed in a nearby Chu tomb in 1983. The Fuchai Spear represented the highest level of bronzes produced by the Wu State during that period, and was also a national treasure weapon at that time.

However, when it was unearthed, not only was the spear handle almost completely rotten, but its bronze surface was also covered with a layer of green rust, making it impossible to see its original appearance.

Then there was a special flash when the Goujian Sword was discovered. Later, when archaeologists were studying the Goujian Sword, it also appeared, and they were startled by it.

It was supposed to be bronze,

That is to say, the yellow-colored Goujian sword sometimes suddenly flashes white light.

Especially in the sun, Goujian sword sometimes shines with white light, sometimes with yellow light.

This is an incredible thing. At that time, many people still had feudal superstitions in their hearts, which led some scholars to think that there was a monster in the sword and to be afraid of it. The security guards in charge of guarding the Goujian Sword in the museum never dared to do so at night. Get close to it.

Then the key point came. Experts who studied Goujian Sword discovered that this sword actually contained metal memory function.

However, this matter has never been proven by the authorities. It has only been circulated in the market. Maybe it is necessary to keep it confidential?

Legend has it that during the testing of the Goujian Sword, a higher temperature was used to test the performance.

Who knew that the test was not very rigorous, the one-time heating was too high, the sword was applied too hard, and a serious accident occurred.

In an instant, the sword twisted and turned into a twisted sword.

The tester was shocked. You must know that this is a national treasure. If a treasure of this level is damaged in his hands, he will have to bear a heavy responsibility. Even if he does not go to jail, he will definitely lose his job.

To make matters worse, the sword had to be sent to another place for exhibition the next day, which was something that could not be hidden even if he wanted to.

The testers had no choice but to take the sword from the provincial museum to the icy and snowy Northeast.

At that time, the temperature in the Northeast was extremely low, reaching minus 30 degrees at one time. After arriving in the Ice City, the testers opened the box tremblingly and prepared to report their major mistakes to the supervisor. Something shocking happened - Gou Jianjian in the severe cold. It actually returned to its original shape, not at all the distorted appearance it had before.

The testers were stunned and panicked for a moment.

If many people hadn't witnessed this, I'm afraid the person who said this would have been sent for examination as mentally ill.

In the 1960s, country Z's metal technology was lagging behind, and no one could explain why.

In the 1970s, the West suddenly began to vigorously develop memory metal. Domestic talents understood something. The Goujian Sword may be made of memory metal.

But theoretically speaking, not to mention before 2000, even in the 1970s, Country Z did not have memory metal technology.

As for the magical Goujian Sword, we can only give a reasonable explanation from a scientific perspective as much as possible. For example, on the issue of sharpness, scholars explained that it is made of copper, tin and a small amount of aluminum, iron, nickel, sulfur and other alloys, among which The blade of the sword has more tin, so it is sharper.

It is not easy to rust because it adopts vulcanization treatment. It is this technology that produces a vulcanized coating on the surface of the bronze vessel, which is extremely hard and never rusts.

The special sparkle is due to the special casting method of the sword. Each part of the sword has different metals. The spine of the sword contains more copper, giving it a yellow color, while the blade contains more tin, so it appears white.

As for the memory metal part, science is still confused, and it is really not something they can explain.

Not only that, the previous analyzes have also been overturned, proving to be unreliable speculations.

For example, there were indeed many weapons made of copper-tin alloy in ancient times, but I have never heard of any that were so sharp after 2000 years ago.

As for not rusting easily, is it vulcanized? Do you really think the experts haven’t done experiments? The so-called surface vulcanization is just due to the corruption of other items in the sword box, causing sulfur to appear in the air and contaminating the sword.

In other words, Goujian Sword has not been vulcanized at all!

The same goes for the special flash. Later, replicas were made to imitate the Goujian sword. However, the same magical two-color flash did not appear in the replicas using the same alloy ratio.

As for the memory function of metal, it cannot be explained at all.

People are accustomed to making mysterious guesses about unexplainable things, such as aliens and gods, or simply blaming them on prehistoric civilizations.

Therefore, there is a saying in the market that Goujian Sword is a special technology that transcends the times and may come from prehistory.

At that time, the strength of the Yue State was not strong, but it was able to destroy the powerful Wu State. This was inseparable from the strength of its weapons.

And why does the Yue State have weapons that surpass those of the Wu State? The two countries are obviously close to each other and their technical levels are about the same. Why do you want to overtake in a corner?

One theory is that Gou Jian discovered prehistoric technology, which just caters to the Western view. The West believes that there have been many civilizations on the earth, but they were destroyed whenever they developed to a certain extent.

As for why it perished, there are many theories, but they are nothing more than various versions of the end of the world, or the theory of plate drift.

The earth's crust drifted, causing the buildings and creatures on the ground and in the sea to be basically destroyed, and the wreckage even sank deep into the ground. Only small and low-level creatures could survive.

The current deepest drilling record of mankind is only more than 12,000 meters in the Mariana Trench, which is far from the underground core, and there is no evidence of past civilization.
