Eight hundred and ninetieth chapters Huangchang title (1)
Chapter 895 Huang Chang Ti Couple (1)
"It's not the Dragon-Breaking Stone. The Dragon-Breaking Stone is usually placed at the entrance of the mausoleum. After the burial is complete, someone will put down the Dragon-Breaking Stone. Once it falls, the tomb door will be closed, and Yin and Yang will be separated from each other from then on..."
Professor Meng looked at the horizontal stone in front of him, and kept hitting it with a hammer. After a while, he said: "Xiao Ren, Xiao Zhuang, let's go back and prepare chisels to break through this horizontal stone...
"
"Punch...through?"
Dr. Ren was startled and said in a confused tone: "Teacher, instead of punching through this stone, we might as well dig through it from the side. Looking at the thickness of this stone, I'm afraid it must be several meters?"
It is true that the archaeological team has to dig up soil, but the task of digging out rocks is indeed a bit difficult for these scholars. It will take only three to five days to break through such a large stone, and it will definitely not be possible to get it down.
Professor Meng shook his head and said: "No, the integrity of the corridor cannot be damaged. Let's go back today. I will ask someone to bring a manual stone crusher. It can be opened in one day..."
According to Professor Meng's idea, after excavation, this ancient tomb can be handed over to the local archaeological department as a demonstration of a large tomb of the Han Dynasty, and can also be developed into a tourist attraction. If the corridor is destroyed, where can we find these in the future?
Chinese bricks to fill in?
Being blocked in front of the horizontal stone, today's work could not continue. Everyone could only go back to the mountain and return to Zhang Daniu's home with the results of the day's excavation.
Except for the "Taosha" plaque, Professor Meng handed over all the unearthed cultural relics to the local archaeological department and took them back. As for the bronze plaque, Professor Meng also wanted to do further research. After registering it, Professor Meng
Leave it behind.
The next day, the local cultural relics department brought in a stone crusher. After re-entering the tomb passage, Zhuang Rui used the stone crusher to drill holes in different positions of the horizontal stone, and then used a chisel to dig.
A group of people worked for a full day before breaking apart the stone, which weighed more than several thousand kilograms, to reveal the tomb door inside.
The tomb door is about two meters high and consists of two doors. It is carved from a single piece of white stone. One door is carved with a pattern of a dragon flying to the sky, and the other door is a phoenix flying in the sky. Two doors are carved in ancient China.
The sacred objects are vividly displayed on the stone gate.
After Professor Meng saw Shimen, he was very excited. He stroked the smooth jade-like white stone with his hand and murmured to himself: "I can't believe it, I can't believe it. This is a major discovery in the archaeological world..."
"Teacher, it is normal to use white marble as the tomb door in a tomb..."
Zhuang Rui was a little puzzled by Professor Meng's emotion. He had once visited the Ming Tombs. The tomb doors in the underground palace were made of white stone, and many buildings in the underground palace were made of white stone.
of.
"Xiaozhuang, you...well, you should read more about the unearthed tombs in the future..."
When Professor Meng was excited, he was interrupted by Zhuang Rui, a disciple. He pointed at Zhuang Rui and continued: "White stone is also called white marble. According to historical records, white stone was mined in the south of the Tang Dynasty.
During the time before and after the imperial edict, this Han tomb is at least two thousand years old, do you understand?"
Professor Meng's words made Zhuang Rui suddenly realize that the Tang Dynasty was only more than a thousand years ago. The emergence of this stone gate has advanced the history of the use of white stone in China. This is indeed a major event.
Archaeological discoveries.
Zhuang Rui saw Professor Meng constantly looking at the gap in the white stone door, and stepped forward and said: "Teacher, this tomb door is behind the Hengshi. There shouldn't be any hidden weapons, right?"
Zhuang Rui had already sensed it with his spiritual energy. In the groove behind the stone door, there was no stone blocking the door, and there were no mechanisms on either side of the stone door.
However, in the tomb chamber behind the stone gate, Zhuang Rui felt a very strong and rich spiritual energy, so he said something. In fact, Zhuang Rui wanted to see what was inside as soon as possible.
"It's hard to say..."
After observing the white stone door for a while, Professor Meng said: "This stone door should be able to be pushed open directly. Xiaozhuang, if you are strong, stay and push the door. Remember, after pushing the door open, you must hold your breath and step back.
Everyone else should step back and wait for the tomb door to open to allow the air to circulate before entering..."
Because the tomb chamber is sealed all the year round, some poisonous gases will form inside. In ancient times, many tomb robbers couldn't wait to enter the tomb chamber after breaking through it, but they were often suffocated to death by the poisonous gas.
Moreover, some toxins are not spread through the air. After being contaminated by humans, they can also cause some diseases that have never been seen before.
It is widely circulated that those who died inexplicably when they entered the Egyptian pyramids for the first time were cursed by the Pharaoh, and that it was the Pharaoh's ghost that took away their lives.
In fact, after the autopsy and examination of the corpses of the deceased, it was found that their bodies were infected by an unknown virus, which was most likely caused by the pyramid being sealed all year round.
Most of the ancient tombs that Professor Meng has excavated in the past have been robbed ten or twenty times. The air has already circulated, so they can directly enter the tomb chamber.
But from now on, it seems that this tomb has not been opened, and no one knows what is inside. That's why Professor Meng was so careful, and after repeatedly warning Zhuang Rui, he led everyone back.
After Professor Meng and others retreated to the first tomb chamber, Zhuang Rui looked at the white stone door and took a deep breath. Behind this stone door was an unknown world, a world that has driven countless tomb robbers crazy throughout the ages.
Zhuang Rui put his hands on the animal heads of the stone door and pushed hard. The two stone doors carved with dragons and phoenixes slowly opened inward with a "click" sound. It was hard to believe that this
The tomb door that has never been opened in more than two thousand years is still so flexible.
While pushing the stone door open, Zhuang Rui stepped back. When leaving, with only the faint light, he saw that there seemed to be an altar in the middle of the tomb, but he did not see the imaginary coffin.
Even after walking and crawling through the trap, Zhuang Rui couldn't hold it in any longer. He opened his mouth and took a breath of air. What surprised him a little was that there seemed to be a faint smell of trees hidden in this breath of air.
Refreshing smell.
"Damn, it's not like he was poisoned, right?"
Zhuang Rui was shocked in his heart. It was written in martial arts novels that the more poisonous the poison, the more beautiful it is. It was like the red crane crown, but the one who got the poison would be killed, and there was no cure.
After arriving at the first tomb with worries about gains and losses, Zhuang Rui said loudly: "Teacher, exit quickly. There is a weird smell in there. I suspect it is poison gas..."
After all, I have spiritual energy to protect myself, so I may not be afraid of this gas, but it is hard to say for the teacher and others. If all of them fall in the ancient tomb today, it will definitely shock the entire Chinese archaeological community tomorrow.
"Weird taste?"
Professor Meng was stunned for a moment, but his body did not move, and then asked: "What is the smell? A rancid smell or something?"
Zhuang Rui shook his head when he heard this and said: "It's not a rotten smell, but it has a bit of fragrance. By the way, it reminds me of the fragrance of trees. Teacher, let's exit first. Who knows where the dead are buried? How does this smell come out?
of……"
“Refreshing scent?!”
After Professor Meng heard Zhuang Rui's words, his eyes suddenly widened. He did not go back, but walked towards the tomb passage, and sniffed hard, as if he wanted to smell what Zhuang Rui said.
"Brother, please give me some advice, teacher. Hey, let me tell you, you also..."
Zhuang Rui was shocked when he saw Professor Meng's behavior and quickly asked Dr. Ren to persuade his mentor, only to find that Ren Chunqiang was walking towards the corridor like Professor Meng.
"Haha, hahaha, Xiaozhuang, it's amazing, we found an incredible Han tomb..."
Just when Zhuang Rui was a little confused, Professor Meng suddenly burst into laughter, and the hearty laughter echoed in the tomb passage for a long time.
"This is not poisonous gas. I didn't expect it. No, I should have thought of it..."
After Professor Meng smelled the smell, he exited the corridor and started walking back and forth in the tomb chamber. He looked extremely excited, as if he was dozens of years younger.
After Zhuang Rui heard Professor Meng's words, he knew that he might have made some kind of joke, and said angrily: "Teacher, this... even if this is not poisonous gas, it has been accumulated in the tombs for more than two thousand years, so there is no good in smelling it, right?
?”
"It's no good, but it's not serious. Let's wait for an hour before going in..."
Professor Meng was obviously in a very good mood and kept walking around the tomb. Zhuang Rui looked a little confused. He touched Dr. Ren who was also excited with his elbow and said: "Brother Ren, teacher this... is
What's the matter?"
"Hey, Zhuang Rui, the tomb we discovered this time is amazing. It is a large tomb with a "Huang Chang Ti Cou"..."
Ren Chunqiang was even more excited than Professor Meng and wanted to rush into the tomb right now. He had only heard about the tomb of "Huang Chang Ti Cou" in the Han Dynasty and had never seen it with his own eyes.
"Huang Chang Ti Minu?!"
Zhuang Rui was stunned when he heard this. "Tizuo" is a kind of burial style that started in ancient times. It was mostly seen in the Han Dynasty. It was rarely used after the Han Dynasty. To be precise, it was used less after the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Zhuang Rui now understood why the two of them were so excited. Although Huang Changtizuo's tombs have been found many times in China, they were all from the Western Han Dynasty, and most of them had been stolen, so they were not very complete.
If this tomb is really that of Huang Chang, then the history of ancient emperors building tombs in Mang Mountain since the Eastern Han Dynasty will be rewritten.
"Okay, let's go in and take a look..."
Professor Meng, who was always steady, waited restlessly for more than two hours and then took the lead to walk towards the corridor. The answer may be revealed as to who the owner of this tomb is.
