Subai frowned and said: "This place is a little strange. I'm a little confused now. I want to reject my previous conclusion. It does look like the style of a Han Dynasty tomb, but there are some places that are different, such as this one.
In the Han Dynasty, the Yinghuang intestines were closely connected and wrapped around the exterior or interior walls, and they look the same here. However, look here, the sleepers in the Han Dynasty actually had dragon-shaped patterns."
Cui Ying looked at the "yellow intestine" on the inner wall. Sure enough, there were shallow patterns carved on the sleepers. A closer look revealed that they were indeed dragon-shaped: "What's wrong with this?"
"The problem is huge." Sub Bai said: "Although the dragon shape is a commonly used pattern in ancient times, the image of the dragon is different in different dynasties. Regarding the origin of the current image of the dragon, there is a more representative statement
After the Yellow Emperor became the leader of the Central Plains tribes, he took the essence of the original totem animals of each tribe and combined them into one body - the horns are like a deer, the mouth is like a pig, the eyes are like a tiger, the ears are like an ox, the neck is like a snake, and the belly is like a snake.
The mirage has scales like a carp, claws like an eagle, and a tail like a fish. It must be in a wishful shape. However, after that, the image of the dragon in each dynasty was different. I won’t talk about anything else. I will only talk about the Qin and Han dynasties.
of."
Cui Ying looked at Sub Bai. This guy was serious now and wanted to listen first before talking. Sub Bai said: "The dragon shape in Qin Dynasty is called Yinglong pattern. The form is simple. The dragon's head looks back and there are no scales on the dragon's body."
Yue Qing took a look at the dragon shape on the sleeper. It was exactly the same as what Su Bai had described: "Is this the dragon shape from the Qin Dynasty?"
"That's right." Sub Bai said: "The dragon shape in Han Dynasty is very different from that in Qin Dynasty. It is called Wadang Qinglong, also called Canglong. The Canglong's body is rolled up, and it suddenly looks like a seal. It is completely different.
The existence of the tomb, you think, the structure of this tomb is a typical Han Dynasty style, but why does the pattern use the Qin Dynasty? Is this a loophole? Or is this a fake tomb, and the person who built this fake tomb does not know what is going on, so
Made something nondescript?"
"Fuck you." Cui Ying patted Subai's forehead: "I was very serious before, why did I suddenly go crazy? Who would go to such trouble to build a fake tomb? If you use a tomb of doubt to confuse people, why bother?
It takes so much effort, do you think how much effort it would take just to build that underground stream?"
"That's true." Su Bai also felt that he was making no sense, and chuckled: "But this kind of thing is always a bit weird, just like in Qin Shi's tomb, when you open the coffin, there is a man dressed in the Ming Dynasty lying inside.
People, but there is always a reason to explain this kind of thing, and there must be a reason for its existence."
Bai Moxuan listened patiently and then said: "Okay, anyway, we know that there is something fishy about this tomb. The owner of the tomb may not be from the Han Dynasty. Well, if we follow him like this, we may lose him."
The four people finally put aside the dragon shape on the sleeper and got into the adjacent cave. This was still a hollow cave. However, after walking in, the four people found a small hole, which was only suitable for a child to stand in and out.
Adults must lie down to go in. There are some signs of wear and tear on the top of the hole, which should be caused by the group in front. Except for Yue Qing, the other three are all tall. Yue Qing smiled bitterly, got in first, and opened the hole.
After the top was dug out and expanded, the three of them were able to get through smoothly, especially Su Bai, who almost got stuck in his back, causing him to complain endlessly.
After leaving the vertical cave tomb, his eyes suddenly opened up. Subai murmured: "What's going on..."
If the characteristics of the tomb just now had made Su Bai suspicious, then he was completely confused now. After leaving the tomb just now, what appeared in front of him was the typical tomb style of the Qin Dynasty!
In ancient times, facing south was respected, and most tombs were oriented in the north-south direction, while the tombs of Qin people were mostly oriented in the east-west direction. Su Bai asked Yue Qing to take a compass to check the direction, and the tomb was indeed oriented east-west!
There is a reason why the tombs of the Qin people are oriented east-west. At that time, the Qin people conquered the land from west to east. The Qin people were a branch of the Huaxia tribe. In the early days, they were mainly active near Tianshui, Gansu. In 770 BC, Qin Xianggong escorted King Ping of Zhou to move eastward.
He was named a prince and the Qin Dynasty was founded. The Qin people were good at fighting. After Shang Yang's reform, they became strong and began to conquer the land from west to east. Before Qin Shihuang, the power had reached the Yellow River.
The west represents hometown, so when people of Qin are buried, they face the west and look at their hometown in the distance.
Another point is that when people of the Qin Dynasty were buried, they often buried with their limbs bent. They curled up their bodies and usually bent the lower parts of their legs. They were divided into supine and sideways bending. Of course, some high-ranking people did not bend their limbs.
.
The tomb suddenly became taller. It was visually estimated to be twenty meters high. However, the tomb was empty. It was made of large stone slabs under the feet. It was square, and each piece was very neat. The stone carvings on the wall were somewhat abstract.
, but Yue Qing saw it: "This seems to be a map, but..."
"It's an ancient map." Su Bai was about to reach out and wipe off the dust on the wall to make the stone carvings more obvious. Suddenly he retracted his hand and looked at Bai Moxuan: "You do it."
Bai Moxuan groaned, stepped forward and rolled up his sleeves to wipe the dust on the wall. The huge map became clearer. Su Bai took a few steps back to see the map completely, "Xiangjun, Guilin
County, Nanhai County..." Su Bai patted his head. Some information flashed in his mind, but it was very blurry. Suddenly, a flash of light flashed through his head, and Subi stuttered: "I, I understand, Nanyue Kingdom!"
Cui Ying and Yue Qing are still familiar with dynasty songs. The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors began, Yao, Shun and Yu were passed down. The Xia, Shang and Western Zhou Dynasties were divided into two periods, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The Qin and Han Dynasties were unified, Wei, Shu and Wu were divided into three parts. The two Jin Dynasties extended forward and backward, and the Southern and Northern Dynasties stood side by side.
, Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties, after the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, the dynasty came to an end. When did the Nanyue Kingdom appear?
Sub Bai said: "I understand, this place has the common characteristics of the Qin and Han dynasties. The map engraved on it is the ancient map of the Nanyue Kingdom, and the counties and counties on it are the components of the Nanyue Kingdom. These guys, originally
That’s why I came here!”
Bai Moxuan groaned: "Can you make it clearer?"
"No," Su Bai patted his head and continued: "I'm a little dizzy. Let me start from the beginning. This South Vietnam country is special. It was established when the Qin Dynasty was about to be destroyed. After the Qin Dynasty unified, he set out to pacify it.
In the land of Baiyue in Lingnan, a military general named Zhao Tuo under his command worked with the general to pacify Lingnan. After that, Lingnan established three counties: Nanhai, Guilin, and Xiang. Zhao Tuo was originally just a county under Longchuan County in Nanhai County.
make
, However, during the reign of Emperor Qin II, Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and others revolted, and the Central Plains was in chaos. The Nanhai Commandery was seriously ill. Before his death, he summoned Zhao Tuo and told him that Nanhai Commandery was close to the mountains and the sea, with favorable terrain and could resist the rebels. Zhao Tuo
Take it
After the fall of Qin, Zhao Tuo raised an army and annexed Guilin County and Xiang County, established the Nanyue Kingdom in Lingnan, and called himself King Wu of Nanyue."
"It turns out there is another South Vietnam country." Yue Qing sighed: "But this group of people actually searched for the South Vietnam country purposefully. It seems that they got some inside information."
"If I guessed correctly, they came for the tomb of King Wu of Nanyue." Su Bai said: "This King Wu of Nanyue was famous for his generosity. After the Qin Dynasty destroyed the Han Dynasty, he broke with Empress Lu in order to confront the Han Dynasty.
, he bribed the nearby territories with property and made them join South Vietnam and oppose Empress Lu. This guy is a rich man."
"No wonder, King Wu of Nanyue traveled through Qin, Yue and Han. This tomb combines the common characteristics of the tomb culture of the Qin and Han dynasties. What we thought was abnormal is actually the most normal state of the person involved." Yue Qing smiled bitterly: "Technical activities
, it’s really a technical job.”
Just when Su Bai revealed the answer, screams suddenly came over, one after another, and more than one person was screaming. Bai Moxuan was startled, and immediately walked quickly inside. As he got closer, he smelled a smell,
Glutinous rice water!
The purpose of the glutinous rice water is to pour it on the body after being poisoned by corpse poison. As long as the corpse poison is not severe, it can relieve the symptoms. But now, the glutinous rice water has no effect on these people. After Bai Moxuan went in, he put his body against
On the rock wall, I saw that the inner room inside was already in a panic, with many figures running around, and the two people lying on the ground were struggling.
A voice rang: "Let me come."
It's the masked man! Dai Jieli's voice also sounded: "What are you going to do?"
"It's useless to use glutinous rice water to poison corpses. The best way is to fight poison with poison." The masked man sneered: "Mr. Baili asked me to obey your command, but in areas you don't understand, it's best to listen to me.
of."
Dai Jieli felt dissatisfied, but she swallowed her breath and said, "It's up to you."
Bailisang, this guy was indeed bribed by Bailisang. Su Bai carefully poked his head out. They all turned off the flashlights and headlights to avoid the light revealing their location. Under the other party's light, they were vaguely aware of each other.
Seeing a total of three people lying on the ground, their bodies curled up in a ball, looking very painful. The masked man still had half a black mask covering the lower part of his face. He took out a box from his arms.
There were probably pills inside. Dai Jieli glanced at the open box and her face darkened. At this moment, Bai Moxuan felt that Dai Jieli's eyes were full of hatred when she looked at the masked man. Why did she hate the masked man so much?
?The reaction to seeing the pill box was also very intense...
Seeing Dai Jieli's expression, the masked man chuckled: "Miss Dai, don't be nervous. I know the purpose of these pills and will never use them wrongly."
Dai Jieli turned away, and the masked man walked up to the three people on the ground, squatted down, and did not let others get their hands on the medicine. He fed the medicine to the three people himself without using his hands. He pulled their chins and pulled them.
With one push, the pill went down the throats of the three of them. Long ago, Fu Yu said that in addition to sacrificing his Yang Qi to cultivate a Yin Qi in his body, this person also took poison made from poisonous plants.
Tang, this person is a master who can skillfully utilize the principle of mutual growth and mutual restraint of poisonous weeds.
So not long after the three people took the pills, their bodies slowly relaxed, and Dai Jieli's complexion became better. The masked man looked at Dai Jieli, and actually reached out and touched her face. His attitude was extremely frivolous, and he was usually temperamental.
The fiery Dai Jieli just gritted her teeth and endured the anger...
