Dou Sprout hurriedly found a bottle of water from his bag and handed it to the boss.
He unscrewed the bottle cap and drank half the bottle in one go, choking a bit.
"cough"
Everyone looked at the leader, expecting him to speak.
In order to save some electricity, we turned off the flashlight and lit a candle.
Lighting candles in such a deserted cave makes the atmosphere feel a little heavy.
After he calmed his head down, he looked at me and asked, "Yunfeng, have you ever heard of that five-character poem?"
"In the Liuhu Lake of the Iron Tomb, the smoke and light scattered in the water, and there were thousands of hidden stones, soaked in cold water as if they were sealed in a hall."
I thought about it and shook my head and said I had never heard of it.
There are only three or four ancient poems that I remember, all of which are about Goose Goose and Rizhao Incense Burner Makes Purple Smoke.
At this time, Achun said in surprise: "I heard the first sentence, Wang Bantou, are you talking about the Hu Cemetery in Zhoukou, Henan?"
"etc"
Ah Chun's face changed, his eyes widened and he said, "Hu Man. Hu Man Gong??"
Keeping your head silent is considered acquiescence.
"Who is Hu Manggong? I've never heard of him," Douyazai asked while sitting next to the candle.
He frowned and thought for a moment, then expressed his thoughts.
Although there is no physical evidence yet, I think it is very possible after hearing it.
The mystery of the Guizailing sacrificial site may be directly related to this.
To start with, Hu Manggong, also called Chen Hugong, was the founding emperor and first monarch of the Chen Kingdom during the Spring and Autumn Period. His courtesy name was Gui Man.
This man is not only a direct descendant of Shun, but also the ancestor of the current "Chen" surname, which dates back more than three thousand years.
Official history says that this man’s tomb is underwater and was entirely cast with molten iron. This statement is also recognized by the local archaeological team. Also, Wang Liangchen, a Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty, left this sentence in his book, “The cleverly cast iron museum is hidden under the water.
The light leaves the jade leaves shining on the world."
Do you still remember the golden young roses buried in the desert?
I have said that the tomb was made of molten iron. If we had not accidentally discovered the secret tunnel at that time, Douyazai and I would not have been able to dig in.
Quicksand tombs, stone tombs, molten iron tombs, and underwater tombs all have anti-theft functions. Hu Manggong's tomb is both a molten iron tomb and an underwater tomb. This is of course also to prevent theft.
Baotou is from Henan, and they must know more about the ancient tombs in their local area than outsiders. Baotou said that Chen Hugong’s underwater iron tomb was damaged once in history. One theory is that it was damaged by theft, and another theory is that it was damaged by several people.
The descendants of the Chen family moved away.
Chen Hugong was a direct descendant of Emperor Shun, and Guizailing was identified as a sacrificial site for Shun. This must be wrong. You can think about it. Starting from thousands of years ago, people made new stone carvings at Guizailing in Dao County until the Qing Dynasty. The last one should have been made by the Taoist priest during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty.
Why?
Because the Chen surname has never been discontinued in the world!
Keep multiplying and prospering!
Chen Hu Cemetery is now a tourist attraction, and many people named Chen go there to pay their respects during holidays.
To be bold, I may have made a mistake.
An ironclad proof. The bamboo slips unearthed from the Mawangdui Han Tomb record that Shun was buried in Jiuyi Mountain after his death. Jiuyi Mountain is in Ningyuan County, Hunan, very close to Dao County.
If you have local friends, you can take a look.
In the summer, standing on the small slope beside the Gui Zailing pond and looking north, it looks like the orientation of those Gui Zai stone sculptures.
Just in time, you can see the highest point of Jiuyi Mountain.
This is certainly no coincidence.
This is because if the Human Cemetery had moved thousands of miles from the water to this place, the descendants of Emperor Shun would have been buried here, and they could have looked at their ancestors and stayed by their side.
Baotou kept hesitating because there was something he didn't understand, but later I figured it out.
That is, there were two Chen states in history, one was the Chen state in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the other was the Chen state in the Five Dynasties period. Hu Manggong Guiman was the monarch of the Chen state in the Spring and Autumn Period. His descendants surnamed Chen had never heard of migration at that time.
Those who come to Hunan are basically from the north, and Dao County was not part of the Chen Kingdom's territory in ancient times.
Most people in Tianguangdong Village have the surname Tang, but a few people have the surname Chen. There are about twenty or thirty people in total.
If you want to know more, I suggest you look for that video online. In the early years when Geography China was filming The Mystery of Guizailing, they accidentally interviewed a family named Chen in Tianguangdong Village, and they took out a genealogy from their home.
The first name in the family tree is "Shun".
At that time, some experts said that your genealogy was fake and untrue. They analyzed it and said why it was impossible.
The dozen or so villagers surnamed Chen were not very educated and had no idea when their ancestors came here. They were very sad after hearing that their genealogy was not true.
Due to the long time span, it is impossible to find out some things, but I am sure that the genealogy they took out at that time must be true.
As for why this group of people stayed in Tianguangdong Village, I speculate that it has something to do with their profession.
I lived in Tianguangdong Village and learned that the ancestors of this group of people named Chen were stonemasons for several generations. Some very old chisels and hammers were also passed down from their homes, so I guessed that the ancestors of this group of people were the original ghosts.
zailing, stone
part of the carving people.
Maybe there were a lot of people a long time ago, and most of them died in the quarry area under Rong Cave.
The stone toilets and those bones we saw must be them.
After a few stonemasons escaped, they kept this secret in their hearts because of fear, and no one dared to tell it.
Just like this, hundreds of thousands of years later, until now, the dozens of villagers surnamed Chen in Tianguangdong don't know anything.
Brother Yu took a breath of cold air and asked: "Head, let's talk about the mural of the small underwater house we just saw."
"yes."
He coughed and said: "The underwater house is the iron tomb of Chen Hugong. It is at the bottom of Huaiyang Lake in Henan. The mural in the middle was damaged by moisture. If it is still there, let's look at it together. It should be a record of the tomb relocation event."
mural."
Xiaoxuan asked, who painted the mural? This is what I want to ask too.
The headmaster said: "The mural was painted in the early Qing Dynasty, probably during the period of Shunzhi and Kangxi. I don't know exactly who painted it because there is no signature. There is currently a lack of evidence, but sooner or later we will find out."
"Phew, it's burned to death!"
Dou Sprout was so absorbed in listening that he was very close to the candle and didn't pay attention, so he was burned by the flames.
Dou Yazi blew his hands and said excitedly: "Boss, are there a lot of burial bronzes from the Warring States Period here? Then we are going to distribute them again!"
He sighed and said: "From a Feng Shui perspective, it is unfavorable for a person to be buried in a damp place after death, but when Gong Mangong built an iron tomb and sunk it to the bottom of the lake, he used such powerful anti-theft measures, which shows that he did not want to be disturbed.
.”
After hearing this, my eyelids twitched, and I frowned and asked, "Boss, according to you, there are also very powerful anti-theft measures here?"
"That's right."
He asked me: "Yunfeng, let me take Hu Manggong's underwater iron tomb as an example. Tell me what you can do if you are asked to do it."
I thought for a long time and then said: "Under the water, we can't dig horizontal wells, fill the roof with molten iron, and diamond needles can't penetrate it. If the coffin is also poured with pig iron, we can't unless we pull a gas cylinder and use an air gun to cut it. But in
Underwater”
I frowned and thought for a long time, and finally shook my head helplessly, "Hold my head, I can't get in."
Although I don't want to admit it, I thought about various possibilities, and it really didn't work.
The head suddenly smiled and comforted me and said: "Yunfeng, don't forget, we are from the northern sect. Hu Gong's underwater iron tomb is the only one in history. Let alone you, even if it is the older generation of the family in Changsha,
Master Shi, even if Xu Zhiguo, Wu Zhiguo, Jie Zhiguo, and Wang Zhiguo join forces, they don't dare to guarantee that they can enter. go."
The four people mentioned above are masters of the southern sect. In the southern sect, their status is equivalent to masters of the northern sect's Jiu Qingshui, Yao Wenzhong, and Tian Sanjiu.
"Why are you so cowardly!"
Douyazai immediately stood up and said loudly: "Who said that our Northern faction can't dig out water holes? Even if someone says that, it's useless. I have joined the Northern faction. Zhao Xuanxuan, tell me, who am I?"
Zai lightly kicked Xiaoxuan and asked...
"You are stupid."
Seeing that her clothes were dirty from being kicked, Xiaoxuan scolded Dou Sprout.
"Cough!" Douyazai was a little embarrassed, but he immediately regained his energy and patted his chest.
"I am Zhoushan Little White Dragon!"
"What are you afraid of when I'm here?"
"No matter what the iron tomb or the water tomb is, dig it out, dig it out as hard as you can! We must dig it out! As long as I'm here, you can be more at ease!"
The head smiled helplessly and waved his hand to signal Dou Sprouts to sit down and stop whining there.
"By the way, Wen Bin, the things I asked you to take before coming down, now check to see if there is any water in them."
Brother Yu said yes.
The bag that Brother Yu is carrying is one size larger than the bags that we are carrying. I asked him what he packed before, and Brother Yu said in a mysterious manner that he would not let me know for the time being.
As a result, when Brother Yu opened it, he was dumbfounded.
Brother Yu took out an old wooden box from his bag, opened it, and found a waterproof bag inside, and a large number of detonators in the waterproof bag.
Many people born after 2000 may have never seen this thing. In fact, all tomb robbers use this thing. They don’t use electric detonators, they all use old-fashioned fire detonators.
At that time, the detonator was as long as a cigar, with a fuse dozens of centimeters long, making it easy to carry. It was divided into upper and lower parts. After being lit, the main explosive and auxiliary explosive exploded together, which was very powerful.
The only bad thing is that the safety is not good, you might blow yourself up.
Therefore, the head is rarely used, and we rely on technology to make up for it, using diamond needles to break the stone from the weak points of the tomb.
I guess I let Brother Yu carry his head because he doesn't smoke and doesn't carry a lighter.
Since I brought an old-fashioned fire detonator, it turned out that my head felt troublesome.
This time I want to play big.
.
The mystery of Guiziling has not been solved yet, and all parties are arguing endlessly. Our current cultural relics law does not advocate active excavation. As for the experts about the Ba Tomb of Emperor Hanwen, they are also wrong. There are some things that you can’t dig up unless you dig up.
I don’t know, nothing is impossible.
If, I say if.
If Guizailing is suddenly excavated on a large scale one day, don’t blame me then.
