This is a special kind of corpse poison legend in history books. Of course, there are other legends. How were these corpse poisons formed?
In fact, the appearance of corpse poison was not intentional at first.
It is said that in order to embalm the ancients, they often took highly toxic drugs before death, which helped preserve the body.
This highly toxic drug will corrode the entire internal organs in the human body, turning it into liquid and remaining in the body.
When tomb robbers move the corpse, the body is squeezed, and liquid will spray out from the mouth, which will burn the human skin, forming the so-called "red face".
Later, this kind of thing happened more and more, and some people specially cultivated corpse poison. At this time, the corpse poison not only caused a "red face", but also killed people.
And corpse poisons are all kinds of weird, so when it comes to corpse poisons, everyone becomes cautious.
However, perhaps as Han Kongque said, the corpse poison here had been cleaned up by him unintentionally, and they did not encounter any abnormalities during the rest of the journey.
"Is there no quicksand machine crossbow here?" After successfully walking through a passage that was most suitable for setting up a quicksand machine crossbow, Shan Yinglei began to wonder.
"Wouldn't it be better without it?" Wei Changqing couldn't help but roll his eyes at Shan Yinglei.
"Is there really such a thing?" Zhaodong asked.
Shan Yinglei said: "Of course."
Ma Jifang said: "This should be the quicksand passage. If you add the mechanical crossbow, it will be the quicksand mechanical crossbow. If it is not activated now, it may have been destroyed."
Quicksand Machine Crossbow In all the archaeological reports in China, no clear records about the ancient tomb mechanisms have been found. It is not the domestic archaeological workers who have never encountered these mechanisms. It is just that they were concealed for some unknown reason.
.
During the excavation process, I encountered machine crossbows. This is normal, because the ancient tombs that have been preserved to this day are usually large tombs of princes and generals, so it is normal for machine crossbows to appear in them.
And here, there is sand everywhere, and the possibility of a quicksand passage is too great. Now, Han Peacock also discovered in the ancient tomb that there is indeed quicksand, but this ancient tomb seems to have a tomb within a tomb. They
At this time, the ancient tomb hidden in this ancient tomb was not excavated, so naturally there was no quicksand.
It can be analyzed from this that Ma Jifang and others either really didn't know, or they deliberately concealed what they knew, and now they are deliberately leading them to think in the wrong direction.
In fact, after entering here, the Korean peacocks were surprised that they had been rotating around the center of a circle.
The circle is relatively large, and it goes deep into the ground through downward stairs, so most people don't feel that they are making circular motion around the center of the circle.
But Han Peacock's perception is more than 400 meters, that is, within this radius of 400 meters and a diameter of more than 800 meters, it is all his perception range.
This ancient tomb was very large, but it definitely did not exceed 800 meters in diameter. So Han Kongque felt it very clearly that they had not penetrated deeply into the center of this ancient tomb.
Now, in the center, there is indeed sand. The method of accumulating sand and rocks is used here. When the tomb robbers dig a hole and reach the sand layer, the sand will flow into the hole, and the flow of sand will cause the stone to collapse.
The stones are carefully buried in the sand layer, the smallest is only 3 kilograms, the largest is 165 kilograms. These stones have different shapes and have very sharp edges. The placement of the stones is also carefully designed.
Through perception, Han Peacock discovered that the internal quicksand trap can be roughly divided into a random stone layer, a capping stone layer, a capping stone layer, a waist stone layer and an undercover stone layer, which can prevent thieves from entering from different parts.
If the tomb is excavated and a large amount of sand and stone accumulates in the coffin after the tomb collapses, the tomb robbers can be quickly buried alive, effectively preventing theft.
Just when Han Peacock kept sensing the tomb within the tomb wrapped in quicksand, they had already reached the end of the tomb passage.
"This should be the main tomb chamber of the tomb owner." Shan Yinglei said.
"Have you been here?" Huangshan asked.
"No, but we have been to its periphery before. It should be in this direction, right?" Shan Yinglei pointed to a place.
"How can you be sure?" Huangshan continued to ask.
Shan Yinglei said: "There is a crack here. We detonated the explosives at that time. This should be caused by the blast."
At this time, Han Kongque had already circled around the tomb. This tomb must be an ancient tomb, but it was far different from what he imagined. It was probably a false tomb, a specially built suspicious tomb.
"The shape of the entire tomb is a very ordinary boat-shaped brick chamber tomb, a bit like the tombs from the Northern Song Dynasty. The only difference is that there is a nanmu coffin placed in the tomb. After thousands of years of history, it is still immortal and very well preserved. It is rare.
Ah!" At this time, Han Kongque spoke, interrupting the conversation between Huang Shan and others.
"Yes! After so many years, it's still so well preserved. It's really good." Wei Changqing said.
The coffin is made of a whole piece of nanmu. The widest nanmu is about one meter and the thickness is more than ten centimeters.
"Huh? It must have been opened by someone?" Wei Changqing moved slightly, and the lid of the coffin fell down.
"It must have been opened by someone, otherwise such a big tomb cannot contain just this little thing." Shan Yinglei said.
Ma Jifang also said: "We should have thought of this a long time ago, otherwise where would the things in the passage outside the tomb come from?"
"That's not right! Let's not talk about the diamond wall, let's talk about the poisonous gas and the fire pit inside. Who can get in without destroying them?" Huang Shan said.
Han Kongque shook his head and said: "If I had brought you in directly without destroying the biogas chambers, wouldn't I have come in without leaving any traces?"
"Don't discuss this yet, let's take a look at the harvest!" Wei Changqing got a pair of leather gloves from somewhere, put them on, and started rummaging around in the coffin.
The best things in a large tomb should be in the coffin, but this tomb is obviously unusual, so not much was found. Only bracelets, silver hairpins, silver combs, copper coins and other scattered small items were found.
In an imaginary imperial mausoleum, only a bronze mirror, a pair of bracelets, two porcelain powder boxes, six silver hairpins, a silver comb, a wooden comb, two pottery pots and 50 copper coins were found.
Not everyone can accept it.
Moreover, due to the age, these things have been corroded to varying degrees, and the unearthed silver jewelry has been carbonized and turned black.
But after peeling away the mud, the original appearance of each piece of exquisite jewelry is revealed, which is full of surprises.
Han Peacock also found the words "Long Live Qianqiu" engraved on a bronze mirror.
At this time, Wei Changqing discovered a well-preserved soy sauce-colored porcelain bowl, which made him overjoyed.
The inner and outer bottoms of the porcelain bowl are white. The glaze of the porcelain bowl is densely bonded, indicating that the firing temperature is high. Some of the accumulated glaze areas are covered with kiln-transformed glaze. It is very exquisite. Han Peacock speculates that it is a porcelain, Zhou kiln system or Yao, Zhou kiln.
products.
"When porcelain bowls were fired in the past, the bowls were stacked one on top of the other. The areas where the bottoms of the bowls were in contact with each other were not coated with glaze. After firing, they formed a white, astringent ring. This is definitely a good thing!"
After Zhaodong Ke took it, he immediately praised it.
At this time, Wei Changqing picked up the bronze mirror in Han Peacock's hand: "Long live Qianqiu? Is this something used by the emperor?"
"This is the Liushan Bronze Mirror. Ordinary people should not dare to use these four words." Han Kongque glanced at Ma Jifang and Shan Yinglei with a smile.
The Liushan Bronze Mirror, also known as the Six Mountains Pattern Bronze Mirror, is a bronze mirror from the Warring States Period in China, with a diameter of 23.2 cm and a thickness of 0.6 cm. It is collected in the Museum of Chinese History.
Bronze mirrors of the Warring States period have rich and colorful decorations. The geometric patterns include mountain-shaped patterns, rhombus patterns, continuous arc patterns, etc. Among them, the mountain-shaped mirrors are widely distributed in large quantities and can be regarded as a model of Warring States bronze mirrors.
Mountain-shaped mirrors are also called T-shaped mirrors and T-shaped mirrors by foreign scholars. These bronze mirrors are all round, with square or round button bases. The button bases are decorated with feather-like ground patterns, and the ground patterns are regularly arranged in three directions.
to six themed patterns similar to mountain characters.
There are two kinds of mountain characters: left-handed and right-handed. According to the number of mountain characters, they can be divided into four types: three mountain mirrors, four mountain mirrors, five mountain mirrors and six mountain mirrors. Among them, the number of four mountain mirrors unearthed is the largest, accounting for hundreds of mountain mirrors.
Seventy to eighty percent.
There are very few six-mountain mirrors among the mountain-shaped mirrors. This mirror is one of the finest. It has a square shape, three-string buttons, and a double round button base. There are six mountain-shaped mirrors outside the base. The font is thin and has a large inclination.
The vertical painting in the middle of the mountain character is very long, holding up against the edge of the mirror. The outer frame of each mountain character is inlaid with a thin edge, and the thin edge on the left extends to the bottom edge of another mountain character, forming a six-pointed star shape.
Six petals protrude evenly from the outside of the button base, and there is another petal on the right side of each mountain character, for a total of 12 petals, which are exquisite and gorgeous.
Han Kongque remembered the six-mountain bronze mirror and the five-mountain bronze mirror found in the ancient tombs of the Warring States Period in China. This time, this six-mountain bronze mirror was also unearthed in this tomb that looked like a Northern Song Dynasty. This is unusual.
Although many bronze mirrors with a mountain pattern have been unearthed, such an exquisite bronze mirror with a six-mountain pattern is absolutely rare. Therefore, although the things unearthed from this ancient tomb may look inconspicuous, they definitely belong to that kind of low-key luxury.
Of course, this bronze mirror is different from the round shape of the original six-mountain-pattern bronze mirror unearthed during the Warring States Period. This mirror is square in shape, with a side length of 15 cm, an inner diameter of 12 cm, and an edge width of 1.5 cm.
Although it is slightly smaller than the originally discovered bronze mirror with the six-mountain pattern of the Warring States Period, this bronze mirror is also exquisitely made. On the back of the bronze mirror, there is a pattern of entangled peonies engraved on it, indicating wealth and good luck. Four peonies are lifelike, with the middle
There is also a raised handle.
This is not the best thing about this bronze mirror, but the most amazing thing about this bronze mirror is that the mirror surface is smooth, just like a new environment. Even in the dark ancient tombs, with some lights, the mirror surface shines
