Chapter seven hundred and ninety-five ancient bear pressure cooker
"I'm afraid you can't imagine that this is a pressure cooker!"
Seeing that Chen Wenzhe didn't speak, Mr. Cui smiled.
Wu Er laughed even harder, he finally knew something that Chen Wenzhe didn't know.
Every time he met Chen Wenzhe, his intelligence made him look like a fool.
This time, I'm afraid I have to get it back.
Chen Wenzhe took a look at this bronze tripod, and sure enough, the lid on it was really special.
Just cover it, there are two accessories pressed on top.
Wu Er saw that Chen Wenzhe really didn't know, so he immediately started talking non-stop.
According to him, this is a custom-made Bear pressure cooker from two thousand years ago.
Today is a world where “everything can be cute”. Everything from household appliances to keychains and mobile phone cases can be made cute.
But if you think being cute is exclusive to modern people, you are wrong.
As early as more than 2,000 years ago, Liu Sheng, Prince Jing of Zhongshan in the Western Han Dynasty, used the "Little Bear Pressure Cooker". Did you not expect it?
Chen Wenzhe really didn't expect it. He knew that in ancient times there were pliers, gears, vernier calipers, and they could also make crystal cups, glass beer bottles, etc. But he didn't expect that now even pressure cookers appeared.
After listening to it for a while, Chen Wenzhe was stunned. The ancestors are truly infinitely wise!
This tripod is a bear-foot bronze tripod with a height of 18.1 cm, a diameter of 17.2 cm, and a belly diameter of 20 cm.
The lid of the tripod is like an upside-down bowl. Before closing the lid, you must first lift off the little beasts on the ears of the tripod.
After the lid of the cauldron is fastened, turn over the cauldron-eared animal button and fasten it on the cover. Turn the cauldron cover to the left so that the head of the little beast on the cover just fits on the cauldron-eared animal button, so that the cauldron lid is locked.
It is cleverly conceived and its operating principle is very similar to that of a modern pressure cooker. It is called the "ancient pressure cooker" and it is absolutely right.
While listening to the introduction, Chen Wenzhe took action.
The small beast on the tripod's ears is carved into a prone position and can be flipped around its axis.
In this way, the lid and the body of the tripod fit tightly together, and the sealing performance is very good, which can avoid steam leakage and speed up the cooking time.
"The one in the domestic museum came from the Han Dynasty Tomb in Mancheng. In order to test its function, a 1:1 replica was specially built. Use it to stew chicken legs, and it will become very soft and rotten in half an hour! But using an ordinary bronze tripod,
Half an hour is not enough." Mr. Cui said with a smile.
Chen Wenzhe was speechless. He invented such a thing to eat in the Han Dynasty. Our ancestors really knew how to live.
However, while marveling at the wisdom of the ancients, Chen Wenzhe also suddenly discovered that the place where this piece was unearthed was also the "Mancheng Han Tomb" in Beihe?
This is more interesting, because Chen Wenzhe knows that this Han tomb is one of the few in China that is well preserved and has never been visited by tomb robbers.
Not wanting to waste too much time, Chen Wenzhe directly activated the Sui Marquis Pearl.
Scenes of images, from near to far, kept appearing before his eyes.
Chen Wenzhe saw the origin of this bronze, and also saw how Wu Er and the others obtained it.
It was actually bought in a small mountain village in the country of South Vietnam?
Keep reading, what did Chen Wenzhe see? A caravan?
It seems that the things carried by the caravan are not simple.
Although I don’t know what the consignment was, this caravan was attacked.
They fled all the way, but they didn't want to give up any of their horses.
And these horses are all carrying things.
Fortunately, there were many escorts and sophisticated weapons, so they were able to repel the enemy's attacks time and time again.
"Boss Chen?" Just when Chen Wenzhe wanted to continue reading, Wu Er woke him up.
"Boss Chen, what's wrong with you? Do you need a break?"
Watching Chen Wenzhe shake his head, Wu Er was a little surprised.
"It's okay, this thing feels unusual!"
This time Chen Wenzhe is not talking nonsense, but is serious.
No matter where this thing comes from, it is always from the Han Dynasty.
And this thing must be related to the royal family of the Han Dynasty, and at least it was buried with a prince.
Coupled with the fact that something similar to this one was unearthed before, it can be shown that it is probably related to Liu Sheng, Prince Jing of Zhongshan in the Han Dynasty.
If this is the case, then perhaps more than just a small bear tripod was buried in that ancient tomb, right?
At this time, Chen Wenzhe thought of Liu Sheng's tomb again. This Han tomb was not simple.
The Han tombs in the city are so huge and the burial objects are luxurious and extravagant, it can be said that the city is full of golden armor!
When archaeologists excavated the tomb in the late 1960s, the level of shock at home and abroad was no less than that of Sanxingdui today!
More than 10,000 pieces of gold, silver, bronze, iron, jade, stone, pottery, lacquerware, silk fabrics and other relics were unearthed, including the famous "Jade Clothes with Golden Threads"!
Of course, the various treasures unearthed are of little use to Chen Wenzhe.
However, Wu Er and Mr. Cui in front of him were useful to him.
Perhaps through them, we can determine the origin of the little bear tripod in front of us!
Many treasures were unearthed from Han tombs throughout the city.
A large number of exquisite wine vessels and food vessels (including a bear pressure cooker) were unearthed from the tomb, as well as a large number of gold and silver medical needles.
The various discoveries made by the archaeological team eventually shocked not only the archaeological community, but also the whole world...
If another ancient tomb of this level is discovered, how many treasures can be harvested?
Or to modify the rhetoric, how many treasures can be hidden in an ancient tomb?
Is there only one huge ancient tomb like Liu Sheng's tomb? And how was it discovered?
In fact, it is not difficult to find, and many things can be traced.
For example, the excavation of Liu Sheng's tomb can start with a mysterious legend...
In that part of the city, there are three villages related to "Ling": Beilingshan Village, Nanlingshan Village and Shouling Village.
There is an ancient and mysterious legend circulating in the village: The ancestors of the villagers came to see the "Prince's Tomb", and there was a "golden head" buried in the tomb.
As for who this prince is and where his tomb is, no one knows.
There is also a mausoleum in the local area, although it looks like an ordinary hill and does not look like a "mausoleum".
But there is a strange phenomenon. Every winter when it snows, there are always two places where the snow melts faster than other places.
In 1968, all parts of the country were engaged in the construction of national defense and war preparation projects.
Soldiers from the engineering corps of the Shendu Military Region drove into Lingshan Mountain for a confidential project.
On the afternoon of May 23, when the soldiers were firing cannons at an area 30 meters away from the top of the mountain, facing east, a strange phenomenon occurred.
Although there was a loud noise and the mountain shook, no rubble broke out.
The two soldiers took the risk and went to check and found a black hole about 60 centimeters in diameter at the bottom of the blast hole.
Everyone widened the hole and lifted a 6-meter-long log up to the bottom of the black hole.
The soldier who climbed along the log into the black hole was shocked by the sight before him.
