Chapter 280 The Three Great Evils

Han Kongque looked at the stone house. The stone house was only more than two meters high and was next to a piece of bluestone. It could be seen that the stone house should be integrated with the surrounding bluestone.

The diameter of the stone house will not exceed one and a half meters. Such a big stone is just a grotto with a diameter of more than one meter. Only children can enter this grotto. If adults want to enter, they can only sit down and curl up.

Go in.

"Clean the floor. Most people can't push such a heavy stone house. It seems that there is no cave on top of this stone house that leads to the ground. So we have to push it aside." Li Xin said.

"How is it possible? How can such a heavy stone house be pushed?" Qian Zhongshu said.

Li Xin said: "If you don't push, how do you know it can't be pushed?"

Seeing Li Xin's confident look, everyone believed him. After the floor was cleaned for a while, Li Xin started to let people wash it with water again.

"Wait a minute." Li Xin grabbed the water pipe from a worker's hand and began to rush towards a certain place. Soon, a groove here was washed out by the water.

"Come here and wash around this groove." Li Xin directed all the workers to wash the floor around him.

Soon, eight grooves were exposed on the floor carved out of solid bluestone.

"Everyone pushed the stone house hard toward the groove to see if it can be pushed." Li Xin directed seven or eight workers, put down the water pipes, and started pushing the stone house.

However, this stone house has not been moved for many years. Even if there is a pulley underneath, it is not easy to push. Soon, Han Peacock’s idea was confirmed. The seven or eight workers could not push the stone house, let alone push.

Even if they tried their best, the stone house would not move at all.

"It shouldn't be! Is it the wrong direction?" Li Xin said to himself.

Han Kongque said: "It should be right, these grooves should be slideways. You all give way and let me try it."

As soon as the workers left, Han Peacock let out a tiger roar and jumped up. He made a tiger leap and kicked his legs on the stone house. He heard a bang. The stone house that had been motionless just now was shaking violently, and he heard a creak.

, the stone house moved slightly.

"Okay, now you are trying to push. You should be able to push now." Han Kongque said.

Li Xindao: "Good kung fu. Your hands are like two doors, and you hit people with your feet. Are your two feet powerful enough?"

"That's a compliment. He has the strength of several hundred kilograms, but the strength of one thousand kilograms is a bit exaggerated." Han Kongque said.

Li Xindao: "If you don't use the strength of your body, you really don't have the strength of a thousand catties. Just rely on your actions just now. Coupled with the inertia of your body, the strength of a thousand catties is indispensable."

"Let's not talk about this, let's see how Shiwu reacts!" Han Kongque said.

Seven or eight workers began to push the stone house again, only to hear a squeaking noise, and the stone house was actually pushed.

Everyone was staring at the bottom of the stone house, but after the stone house moved, there was no movement under the stone house. The exposed ground was no different from the place where the stone house was now, with only some grooves.

"The mechanism is indeed this stone house, but there shouldn't be a passage underneath this stone house. After all, the stone house is so heavy, and it is impossible to dig a passage under it," Han Kongque said.

Li Xin pointed to the bluestone wall behind the stone house and said, "Then there is only one possibility. This stone wall should have existed for a long time. The function of the stone house should be to block this stone wall."

Han Kongque went over and knocked on the stone wall, felt it, and pushed it with his hand. Unexpectedly, he only used a little force. He was dodged, and the stone wall could actually rotate.

There is an axis in the center of the stone wall. With a slight push, the stone wall will rotate, just like a modern rotating glass door.

"Wait, you can't go in." Just as Han Kongque and the others wanted to see what was going on inside, someone stopped them.

Han Kongque looked over and saw that it was an old man. This old man should have followed Gao Dashan: "Old Gao, what do you mean?"

Gao Dashan said: "Xiao Han, you are not qualified to excavate the ancient tombs buried underground in our country, right?"

"I really don't have the qualifications, so I won't go in." Han Kongque smiled and said nothing.

He doesn't need to worry, money planting trees will naturally not make things easier for them.

Sure enough, Qian Zhongshu grabbed a few old men and said, "Come here, send them out. If they don't accept it, beat them out directly."

Qian Zhongshu's prestige in his family is still very high, and everyone in their village is named Qian, so when he gave the order, almost no one hesitated.

As soon as Qian Zhongshu finished speaking, several young workers stepped forward and pushed the old men away.

"What are you doing? Do you know this is illegal?" Gao Dashan didn't have much composure at this time.

Jiang Lin was watching the excitement, but when he found someone walking towards him, he immediately said: "I am Han Kongque's friend, I just came to visit my friend."

"Mr. Han?" Qian Zhongshu looked at Han Peacock.

Han Kongque said: "He is indeed my friend."

Just when the experts in Gao Dashan were about to be driven away, Li Xin spoke: "Village Chief Qian, it's best to leave them behind. Since it is the tomb of your ancestors, you are not afraid to let them see it. Besides, I

I suspect this is an empty tomb, and having these people following me can give you proof that you didn’t take anything out of the tomb.”

"Empty tomb?" Qian Zhongshu was surprised.

Li Xin said: "The Taoist priests of Zhenshui Temple must know this passage. What else do you think can be left in the ancient tomb?"

Han Kongque said: "There will always be some left, right? They can't even move the coffins."

"That's true, but it's hard to say what's inside the coffin." Li Xin said again.

"Don't worry about them, let's go down and take a look." Qian Zhongshu stopped the young men who were chasing Gao Dashan.

Li Xin said: "Bring the torch over here."

Han Kongque said: "This passage has been blocked for a long time. It is too dangerous to go in with a torch."

"What are you using torches for? We have flashlights." A young man said.

Qian Zhongshu said: "You kid, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand."

"Brother Han Xing, tell me, why do we need to use torches?" the young man said unconvinced.

Han Xing smiled and said: "If the flame does not go out in the cave, it means there is oxygen inside. However, many tombs have fire dragon traps, so it is very dangerous to enter the ancient tomb with an open flame."

"Fire Dragon Mechanism?" Many people don't know this kind of mechanism.

Han Xing said: "To put it simply, it is gas or methane. If there is such a thing in the cave, or if it is put in specially, it will burn when exposed to fire. If it is in a small cave, it will be even more dangerous and an explosion will occur.

.”

Han Peacock was closest to the door and his perception was clearest. So he said: "There is no smell of decay, so there shouldn't be much danger."

Han Kongque walked in first. The structure of the ancient tomb was very simple. After entering, there was a narrow passage extending downward. The passage seemed to be hollowed out from the rock.

Han Kongque entered first. After entering, his body leaned forward obviously. He took a strange look at the passage. There was a small one-square-meter platform at the door, and the rest was downhill.

Since he had to make way for the people behind him after entering, he could not stay on that flat land, so he went straight down the slope and went deep into the tomb.

After passing this long and narrow passage, the space at the back was not big. There were only three tombs, one main, two auxiliary, and two auxiliary tombs. The two auxiliary tombs were empty and had nothing. It was not until entering the main tomb that I saw a stone coffin.

By this time, no one was fighting for an empty tomb. The only valuable thing was a sarcophagus, but the sarcophagus was probably the ancestors of the Qian family. No matter how self-righteous Gao Dashan and the others thought about this kind of thing, they would not

Dare to open your mouth and fight with the villagers here.

"Let's open the coffin and take a look! If I'm not wrong, the structure here has been destroyed. If the ancestors of the Qian family really knew something, it would be absolutely impossible for their ancestors to stay here. This should be a

An empty coffin." Li Xin said.

The sarcophagus can be easily opened, and there is a wooden coffin inside. When you open it, you will find that there are only some clothes inside, and nothing else. This can be regarded as a tomb of clothes at most.

Li Xin did not look at what was in the sarcophagus. It seemed that he was very confident in his judgment.

Han Kongque saw so many people surrounding the sarcophagus, so he didn't get close. He also began to observe the surrounding environment.

"Mr. Han, have you discovered anything?" Li Xin said.

Han Kongque said: "If anything is discovered, it is that this area should be collapsing, just like the fractures that appear after someone hollows out the ground. This kind of situation is often encountered in many coal mining areas."

"It's a pity that Mr. Han doesn't learn the art of Feng Shui. Your observations are so careful. You are right on target. If I'm not mistaken, the spiritual spring in front of Zhenshui Temple should be older than Zhenshui Temple." Li Xin said.

Han Peacock said strangely: "Didn't the Taoist priests from Zhenshui Temple dig it out after they came?"

"It should have been before. Since Mr. Han can see water, do you think there is water under this tomb?" Li Xin asked.

Han Peacock sensed the moisture around him and found that it was actually empty underneath. However, it was not a tomb underneath, but a dry underground river. The underground river formed a honeycomb shape and hollowed out the entire bottom of the tomb.

"There should have been water before, but it should have dried up now." Han Peacock told the truth.

"That's right. It turns out that there is water underground, so there is no problem with the tomb above. Moreover, this is a good tomb. No matter who is buried here, he will benefit future generations.

But due to the discovery of the spiritual spring, the water here was slowly drained. Even if it was not drained, there was a gap in the underground river. When such a situation occurs, the structure of the hill will be damaged first.

The geological structure is destroyed, and the dragon veins will naturally be affected." Li Xindao.

Han Kongque said: "Are you saying that if too much groundwater is pumped out, the ground will collapse?"

"Yes, this should be the main reason why the hidden golden dragon was destroyed. Otherwise, it is impossible to break so many faults here just by relying on cannonballs." Li Xin said.

"Is it because the dragon veins here were discovered to have been damaged that the descendants of the Qian family moved the remains of their ancestors?" Han Kongque said.

Li Xindao: "I can only think of such an explanation."

"It seems that after this place was damaged, the Taoist Zhenshui Temple later renovated it. They finished using it, and now it's my turn to come here and use it again." Han Kongque said with a wry smile.

Talented people have emerged from generation to generation, and each has led the way for hundreds of years. He can see that if he thinks of something, others may have done it hundreds of years ago, or even thousands of years ago.

Li Xindao: "It's such a pity that this geomantic treasure land was ruined just because I was greedy for some spiritual springs. Otherwise..."

Although Li Xin did not finish speaking, Han Kongque knew what he meant, but even if a dragon vein is preserved, can an emperor be born now?

He didn't believe this. Even if the ancestors of the Qian family were buried here, the Qian family didn't have a famous person, right?

"Mr. Han, you are the most knowledgeable here. Come over and help me read this letter." Just as Han Kongque and Li Xin were considering the changes here, they heard Qian Zhongshu calling him.

"Am I the most knowledgeable? Uncle Qian is trying to bring hatred to me!" Han Kongque looked at Gao Dashan and others whose eyes almost started to burn. Which of these old men is weak in knowledge?

Qian Zhongshu didn't trust those old men, that was for sure. So Han Kongque didn't say much, walked over and saw an envelope with yellowed paper.

"Qian Qianyiliu? Qian Qianyi? This is Qianjiajiao. Your surname is Qian, right?" Han Kongque looked at the four traditional Chinese characters on the envelope and was a little dumbfounded.

Is this really related to Qian Qianyi? If this is the case, the Chronicles of the Nine Kingdoms he collected in the morning is very interesting.

"Who is Qian Qianyi? He is very famous?" Qian Zhongshu asked.

Han Kongque said: "Uncle Qian, where did you find this letter?"

Qian Zhongshu said: "I found it inside the clothes in the tomb. There is a tablet inside the clothes, which is very similar to the tablets of our ancestors. There are hidden slots in such tablets. You see, this letter is hidden in the secret of the tablet."

Inside the tank."

With that said, Qian Zhongshu handed Han Kongque a spiritual tablet written in white with a black background. The spiritual tablet was in Qian Zhongshu's hand. In an instant, a hidden slot appeared, and the letter should have been taken out from here.

There are several large characters written in white paint on the spiritual tablet: Qian Qianyi’s spiritual tablet.

Seeing this spiritual tablet, Han Kongque was inevitably startled again. How could Qian Qianyi be buried here, and in a tomb?

Qian Qianyi is also very famous in modern times. He is most famous for being an old man and a young wife, and he married Liu Rushi, one of the four beauties in the late Ming Dynasty.

This celebrity was an acquaintance. The cemetery where he died was also in his hometown. Although Liu Rushi did not enter his family cemetery, her cemetery was not far from Qian Qianyi's cemetery. For such a celebrity, everything is in doubt.

It's transparent, how could his spirit appear here, and the time is wrong.

The age of this ancient tomb must be more than 370 years. Thinking of this, Han Kongque's heart moved. Qian Qianyi died 370 years ago. Could it be that Qian Qianyi's spiritual tablet was placed here at that time?

If this is the case, what is the relationship between this Qian family member and Qian Qianyi?

Full of doubts in his heart, Han Kongque opened the letter. Sure enough, it was a suicide note left by Qian Qianyi, and the Qian family members surnamed Qian were indeed Qian Qianyi's descendants.

"What's written in the letter?" Qian Zhongshu asked anxiously.

Han Kongque said: "The general meaning is that Qian Qianyi was going to do some dangerous things and was afraid of harming the nine tribes, so he left a way out. He hid some of the family's books here and moved them secretly.

A son was raised here, took root here anonymously, and guarded this ancient tomb."

"Where are the books?" Gao Dashan couldn't help but asked.

Han Kongque said: "We are not the first to discover this place, so you have also seen that there is not a single book here?"

"Show us the letter. We can't trust you. Who knows if what you say is true?" said an old man.

Han Kongque directly returned the letter to Qian Zhongshu and said, "Uncle Qian, you can do it yourself."

At this time, Qian Zhongshu had already guessed something. There were not many literate people in their village, so there was something wrong with the ancient books that appeared in their village.

There used to be a lot of ancient books in their village. He knew better than anyone how those ancient books came about. Apart from some of them coming from Zhenshui Temple, some of them were handed down from ancestors.

Therefore, by this time, he already knew completely who owned the ancient books they snatched from Zhenshui Temple. Those books originally belonged to their Qian family, but they were just moved out of the tomb by the Taoist priests of Zhenshui Temple.

Naturally, these money-planting trees will not be told, and the origin of the Nine Kingdoms Chronicles that Han Kongque purchased from Qian Danniu's house today is also very clear. It must be Qian Qianyi's collection, because it contains Qian Qianyi's collection of books.

print.

Qian Zhongshu knew the whereabouts of those ancient books. Although he felt extremely regretful, he also knew that he would not be able to gain anything more, so he directly handed the envelope to Gao Dashan, letting them give up.

Qian Qianyi loved rare ancient books when he was young, and was famous in Jiangnan for his rich collection of books.

After the bibliophile Zhao Qimei passed away, all the books in his "Maiwang Pavilion" were given to him for 20,000 gold.

He also purchased the collections of well-known book collectors such as Liu Feng's "Guanzai Pavilion", Qian Yunzhi's "Xuanqing Room", and Yang Yi's "Qi Hui Shan Fang", including more than 10,000 volumes of Tang manuscripts, Song and Yuan editions, and rare editions.

Later, he spent a lot of money to collect ancient books, and the book collectors gathered in front of his door. The collection of books was equal to the collection of books in the royal family, and exceeded the collections of Ye Sheng, Wu Kuan, Zhu Mumu and others.

In his middle age, Qian Qianyi once built a "Fushanshui Fang" to hide the books he collected. In his later years, he lived in "Hongdou Villa" and built a new "Jiangyun Tower", which means "the descent of the immortal grandma Jiangyun of the True Emperor", so he named it

The library is called "Jiangyun Tower", which contains unique copies carved from the Song Dynasty and many secret volumes.

His collection of books was carefully renovated, divided into categories, and divided into 73 large cabinets. He claimed: "I became poor in old age, but books can make me rich."

Scholars say that "south of the Yangtze River, there is no wealth greater than money in collecting books."

But in the seventh year of Shunzhi (1650), the young girl and her wet nurse were playing in the library, and the candle accidentally fell into the pile of paper, which caught fire and was burned.

He claimed that the fire at Jiangyun Tower, the burning of books by Emperor Liang Yuan in Jiangling, and the burning of books by Li Zicheng in Wenyuan Pavilion were the "three major calamities for book collection".
