For example, in the local chronicles of Linzhang County, Beihe City, when the local office was sorting out old chronicles, they accidentally discovered a map of Linzhang County from the 35th year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty.
The map clearly shows the tomb of Cao Cao, the tomb of Emperor Wu of the Wei Dynasty, located in Xiwen Village, Xiwen Township, this county.
This picture has a history of 246 years. The paper has long been yellowed and the edges are often damaged, but most of the writing is clearly visible.
The famous Jinfeng Terrace, Tongque Terrace, Bingjing Terrace, as well as villages, rivers, tombs, etc. in Linzhang are marked on the map.
This is basically consistent with the current map, so before the Qing Dynasty, the tomb of Cao Cao, the tomb of Emperor Wu of Wei, was accurately marked south of Xiwen Village.
In this way, two Cao Cao tombs appeared. As for the apparent Cao Cao tomb, it was too easy to be destroyed, which is also a doubtful point.
So how many things were buried with Cao Cao's so-called thin burial?
There are now more than 250 artifacts unearthed from Cao Cao's tomb in Gaoling, Anyang, including gold, silver, copper, iron, jade, stone, ancient, lacquer, pottery, mica and other textures.
The main types of utensils include copper belt hooks, iron armor, iron swords, iron arrowheads, jade beads, crystal beads, agate beads, stone guis, stone walls, stone pillows, stone tablets with engraved names, pottery figurines, etc.

Among them, a total of 59 inscribed stone tablets were unearthed, including rectangular, Gu-shaped, etc. The inscriptions recorded the names and quantities of the burial objects.
It is really puzzling, and even more suspicious, why would the tomb robbers who occasionally regard money as their lives sweep away those valuable bamboo hairpins? It is also worth exploring in depth.
It is no longer an x with a knife and a ruler, but the word "x" is a damaged font in Miaohu.
Except for those things, there is no more one picture, such as a straight collar with a red pattern and seven pairs of white skirts.
Including gold, silver, copper, iron, jade, stone, ancient, lacquer, pottery, mica and other textures.
The emergence of the word "yangdou" began in the Tang Dynasty works "Kaiyuan Zhanjing" and "Youyang Zazu".
There is still controversy in the archaeological community. No archaeological expert believes that this object should be an ordinary agricultural tool.
The dating results show that the robber holes in the tombs are of different ages, ranging from the Eight Kingdoms period to the Qing Dynasty.
What exactly is the seven-foot thinning machine? Experts are still not sure yet, but speculate that it may be a tool to reduce the thickness of objects.
For example, there are seven thousand bamboo hairpins. As the name suggests, bamboo hairpins are not hairpins made of bamboo.
In order to give himself peace a hundred years ago, literary works specifically describe Cao Cao's funeral with 72 coffins at the same time before his death, which is intended to portray his image as a traitor.
Those were cultural relics unearthed from Anyang's Low Mausoleum. The reason why so many of them were discovered has nothing to do with previous robberies.
Now that you can think of it, why is Cao Cao's tomb so easily robbed?
Those unearthed written materials provide important and most direct historical basis for research and determination of the identity of the tomb owner.
At the same time, some important funerary objects of lower specifications were also unearthed.
Are the items recorded under the engraved stone tablet nothing? Whether the burial is really thin or not depends on that.
Other records are difficult to understand due to price comparison, such as the seven-foot thinning machine.
Again, as we all know, Cao Cao was less suspicious during his lifetime.
Apart from those things, there is no cloth, such as "seven feet wide, seven feet long, a tent made of silk, and seven pairs".
No longer seven pounds of Hu Fen, Hu Fen is pepper. It was a spice trafficked to the Central Plains by merchants from the Western Regions. Its purpose may be to embalm corpses.
Cao Cao worked so hard on this, but will his grave be dug up in the end?
After that, the ancients all used the words "shu" and "adzuki bean" to describe "soy beans".
Will that mystery remain sealed forever? The answer is not so.
And what is most worthy of study is, why use 7,000 bamboo hairpins?
There is no troweling yet, so what exactly is such troweling?
So, no matter how you think about it, it feels right.
A casual inventory will reveal that there are only a total of less than 200 funerary objects surviving in the tomb.
Expert analysis believes that the knife ruler may be a kind of ancient ruler, with a shape similar to a knife and a measuring instrument.
There are no less than 8 pieces of them in total, including the stone tablet "often used by King Wu of Wei". Those are obviously all of them.
Those things were still considered for practical use. To truly explain Cao Cao’s so-called modest burial and luxurious burial, we still have to look at his personal accessories.
What is the function of the inscribed stone tablet? To put it simply, it is more like an "account book" that records the list of burial objects in the low tomb.
This does not mean that there were not seven liters of "soybeans" among the seven grains among the funerary objects.
Are there many mysteries in Cao Cao's tomb? We still don't know it yet, but what is certain is that as archeology progresses, some of the mysteries will eventually be solved.
From now on, it cannot be seen that setting up suspicious tombs and imitating tomb robbing could be used by Cao Cao.
Archaeological experts are still unable to determine the type and quantity of the original burial objects.
There is no doubt that from the literal meaning, "Danwen straight collar" should be a straight collar clothing decorated with red pen writing.
The "White Qi Skirt" is a dress made of Luo Qi.
This object was initially identified as the "eight-piece set under the bed", which belonged to the ancient bedding supplies.
Because during the excavation process, archaeological experts also found a "treasure" - an inscribed stone tablet.
On a stone pillow unearthed after the tomb was stolen, there was an inscription "King Wu of Wei often used a comfort stone".
The featured cultural relics mainly include copper belt hooks, iron armor, iron swords, jade beads, crystal beads, agate beads, stone turtles, stone walls, stone pillows, etc.
It is worth mentioning that although the cultural relics in Cao Cao's low mausoleum have been rediscovered, they are still in ruins after being stolen.
It's a pity that the small tomb was excavated very thoroughly. The official archaeologists knew about my existence at all, so they couldn't prove anything.
That is obviously an anomaly. According to experts, the number of robberies in Cao Cao's lower tomb was minor, and there were a few robber holes.
There are 8 extremely precious pieces, each of which is engraved with inscriptions such as "King Wu of Wei often uses a large halberd to carry tigers", "King Wu of Wei often uses a short spear to carry tigers".
However, no experts expressed their approval, thinking that it might be an ancient men's head ornament.
I have also commanded troops to dig graves, so I am well aware of the disadvantages of heavy burials.
That was Cao Cao's Low Tomb that was discovered. If the treasures Chen Wenzhe saw came from that one, it was from another one. As the residence of a generation of celebrities, the Cao Cao Low Tomb that was found now carries the same burden as the tombs of previous dynasties.
Destiny has never escaped the clutches of tomb robbers.
As for the things buried inside, are these things really precious to an Earth King?
At this time, a question naturally arises: What cultural relics have survived in the low tomb of Cao Cao, King Wu of Wei?
But Cao Cao was the King of Wei Wu, so why did he need a bamboo hairpin?
I also think that Cao Cao would build 17 doubtful tombs, but I can still build 87 doubtful tombs.
The account book is also very boring. For example, it does not start with seven liters of soybeans.
Therefore, even Chen Wenzhe believed that the tomb that the tomb robbers robbed was really the tomb of Cao Cao.
