Zhuang Rui also visited tombs more than 2,000 years ago. At the Institute of Archaeology of Beijing University, he faced the skulls of dead people every day. According to this, he was not a timid person. At the very least, he was a staunch atheist.
But the scene he just felt still made Zhuang Rui feel chilly in his heart, the hairs all over his body were breaking out, and his scalp was numb. In this broad daylight, he felt a little bit windy.
Although Zhuang Rui clearly knew that many things in this world were just to scare him, he still didn't have the courage to continue investigating the situation underground. Instead, he walked out of the long grass and walked towards a slightly higher hill.
"Damn it, no wonder the Mongolians believe in Buddhism and kill too many people. Please pray to Buddhism to calm your mind, right?"
Feeling the direct sunlight above his head, Zhuang Rui calmed down a little, but his thoughts were a bit extreme. When the Yuan Dynasty was strong, more than a million people were killed. Compared with this, the underground burial pit is simply not enough.
With Tao.
After calming down for a while, Zhuang Rui began to recall the scene he had just seen. In fact, it was not uncommon for living people to be buried in some ancient tombs. Some of them were the wives, concubines, and servants of the deceased. In the tombs of male and female nobles of the Shang Dynasty, they were all buried.
A large number of people died.
Archaeologists have discovered from the excavated ancient tombs that there are 164 skeletons of martyrs in the tomb of King Shang in Houjiazhuang, Yinxu, and 164 skeletons of martyrs in the tomb of King Shang in Houjiazhuang, Yinxu.
People were buried as martyrs, and the tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng contained the remains of 21 victims, all of whom were young women.
As for King You of Zhou who loved to play beacon fire with the princes and lost his kingdom, there were more than a hundred corpses in his tomb, only one of them was male, and the rest were all female, all of them were his concubines. It should be said that they were all
They are the concubines and maids who died and were buried.
However, the burial of living people was a cruel and barbaric system no matter which dynasty it was in. After the Qin and Han Dynasties, it was somewhat restrained, and wooden figurines and pottery figurines were often used instead. After the Qin and Han Dynasties, few people were buried with sacrifices.
However, in the Ming Dynasty, the practice of human sacrifice revived. Taizu of the Ming Dynasty was the first to set a precedent. Later, Emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty and Shunzhi Dynasty all had sacrificial burials. Later, it was not until the Kangxi period that the feudal era burial system was ended.
These are all recorded in existing history, but like the history of the Yuan Dynasty in Mongolia, there are very few records in history books. To this day, not even a tomb of the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty has been found, let alone whether we understand the burial system of the Yuan Dynasty.
However, in this tomb of an unknown person, thousands of corpses were found only in the peripheral stage. This is unique among the known tombs of all dynasties. At least Zhuang Rui has never heard of it.
"There are layers of corpses in the pit. They should have been killed first and then thrown inside. These dead people must have been the craftsmen who dug the tomb. They killed them first and buried them later to prevent them from becoming familiar with the tomb and leaving an escape route.
…”
Zhuang Rui suddenly remembered the results of his survey just now. There was no trace of spiritual energy in that space. This showed that this tunnel was not used for human sacrifice, but was supposed to bury the craftsmen who dug the tomb.
You know, most of the people who died were the concubines of ancient emperors. The soldiers who were used to supervise the tombs would never dare to be disrespectful to those women, and they would also have some accessories they wore with them. It was impossible for them to have a trace of aura.
No.
As for the burial pit that Zhuang Rui discovered, it was obvious that people had been stripped naked and thrown in. As for the identities of those people, it was easy to figure out.
Ninety percent of the identity of these people should be the craftsmen who built this tomb.
In ancient times, the craftsmen who built the tombs behind the emperors were very special beings. Their status was very low, and they were mostly composed of slaves and criminals.
Generally speaking, the emperor began to build his own mausoleum in the second year after he ascended the throne. The construction of his mausoleum could take up to several decades or only a few years. During this period, it was these craftsmen who
Portraits of people's lives.
Due to the confidentiality of tombs, the final outcome of all craftsmen involved in the construction of the emperor's tomb is death. Since the tomb itself was built by these craftsmen, in order to prevent them from destroying the emperor's coffin or leaving a way out, these craftsmen often
They were all buried after being killed.
For example, after the death of Qin Shihuang, Qin II once issued an order announcing that all the concubines and daughters in the harem would be buried. Including the craftsmen of Lishan at that time, the total number was as high as tens of thousands.
Since the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shihuang were unearthed in the last century, hundreds of people's pits and thousands of people's pits have been discovered around Lishan Mountain. This is the reason.
"No, we must find this tomb and see who has such a big hand?"
After figuring out the joints, Zhuang Rui secretly made a decision in his heart, and the panic just now weakened a lot. These craftsmen were like cattle and sheep who were slaughtered at will. Could it be that their tempers became stronger after death, and they could still
Why don't you come to disturb yourself?
Thinking of this, Zhuang Rui took a deep breath, but this time he did not close his eyes, but opened his eyes wide. The aura released by the room full of bones in the ground was really too permeable. Open your eyes wide and see the sunshine.
, Zhuang Rui felt more or less at ease.
After the spiritual energy escaped into the ground, it soon reached the tomb passage full of dead bodies. However, Zhuang Rui had no intention of exploring at this moment. After passing it in a hurry, he continued to investigate.
"Damn it, is it endless? Or is it a dead person?"
Behind the burial pit of the craftsman, there was also a space with a length and width of nearly a hundred square meters. In this space, Zhuang Rui also found some bones of dead people.
However, compared to the previous burial pit, the number of dead people here was much smaller, with only a dozen or so people. Moreover, Zhuang Rui also found some objects containing spiritual energy next to the bones and on the walls around the tomb.
"She must be the concubine who was buried..."
Wrapping those small objects with spiritual energy, Zhuang Rui sensed from their appearance that they should be some gold, silver, and jade jewelry. As for the things containing spiritual energy on the wall, they were very beautifully made ever-burning lamps.
"This should be the main tomb below, right?"
After exploring this place, Zhuang Rui felt a little excited. The spider web-like underground maze, the massive underground tunnel, and the tragic burial pit all showed that the identity of the owner of the tomb was not trivial.
Even though Zhuang Rui couldn't tell the secret in his eyes and couldn't unearth the tomb, the identity of the owner of the tomb still had a great attraction for him.
"This this……"
When Zhuang Rui entered the next tomb chamber through the spiritual energy in his eyes, he suddenly felt that his eyes were shining with light. The tomb room was filled with strong spiritual energy, which nourished Zhuang Rui's eyes and made him feel comfortable.
"What a big gesture..."
Zhuang Rui is no stranger to this kind of aura. He has experienced it as early as when he was in Myanmar. This is the aura generated by gold. However, in this tomb with an area of hundreds of square meters, everything is made of gold.
Made.
The ceiling at the top, the surrounding walls, and the floor under the feet are all paved with gold bricks. On both sides of this golden tomb, there are rows of long weapon racks. These weapon racks and the swords, axes and axes on them,
They are all made of gold.
"Grandma's is actually solid..."
In the middle of the golden tomb, there are four horses made of gold. The size of the horses is exactly the same as the real ones. The carriage coming from behind is also made of pure gold. Zhuang Rui used his spiritual energy to sense that these horses are not
It's hollow, but actually made entirely of pure gold.
"Damn it, no wonder it's called the Golden Family. It dares to use all the gold stolen from all over the world here?"
The more Zhuang Rui looked at it, the more frightened he became. His relatively strong heart kept beating "dong dong". Compared with the gold he got in Myanmar, it was just a drop in the ocean.
Zhuang Rui simply couldn't estimate how much this room full of gold was worth. I'm afraid it couldn't be compared to the gold reserves that Bald Chiang brought to Taiwan in 1949, right?
Zhuang Rui is now quite certain that this large tomb must be a Yuan Dynasty tomb.
Apart from anything else, except for the dynasty that rode on horseback to expand and plunder crazily, I am afraid that no other dynasty would be willing to use so much gold to build a military and horse weapons room.
Only the Yuan Dynasty, which once drank from the Danube River and established its royal tent on the land of Europe, could have such great efforts and so much wealth.
Who says this treasure will be carried with it in life and death? At least the emperor in the tomb successfully did it.
If this tomb has no choice but to see the light of day, then the gold that is enough to drive any country crazy may still be parked here hundreds of thousands of years later.
"If this place could be excavated, it would probably cause a bigger sensation than the opening of the pyramid. If the government knew that there was such a huge amount of wealth hidden underground, they would probably be tempted, right?"
Zhuang Rui felt the spiritual energy in the underground golden room, and he had a lot of thoughts in his heart. From his original intention, he wanted to make this the greatest miracle in the history of world archeology appear in the world. However, in this way, Zhuang Rui had to expose what he saw.
secret.
"Brother, I'm just thirty this year. My wife and children have only been on the hot bed for two years. I don't want to become a guinea pig so soon..."
After thinking about it in his mind, Zhuang Rui made a decision. Anyway, the things dug up were not his own. There was no need to sacrifice his wife and soldiers to do it for himself, right?
"After my brother dies, write this place in your memoirs. Whether the government is willing to dig it out then is beyond our control..."
Zhuang Rui found an excuse to comfort himself, and reluctantly looked away from the golden room. Now he wanted to determine the owner of this big tomb. He couldn't write an anonymous person in his memoirs in the future, right?
