This kind of jar needs to be disposed of back home, so we simply wrapped it in a sack and continued digging the ancient tomb.
Working from the first half of the night to the second half of the night, six earth pit tombs were dug in a row. The number was very dense. The distance between the tombs was no more than ten meters.
Bricks, with soil directly buried on top.
No coffin was seen, and no bones were seen.
In these pit tombs, we dug out a money jar weighing more than 20 kilograms and six plastic porcelain urns. In addition, there are no valuable burial objects. This should be the former civilian burial area.
, and all were cremated.
Who has seen ancient porcelain urns?
It was hundreds of times more complicated to make than the urns used by people today, and it had to be fired several times.
The porcelain is kneaded, grated, glazed, put into the kiln, positioned, spliced, etc. The six items we excavated contain the ashes of previous people.
Around the jar, small houses, small stairs, small people, puppies, ducks and calves are embossed in relief. The small people allude to the deceased himself, which means that after the person dies, he will have all kinds of animals and live a prosperous life.
Therefore, if anyone sees jars and bottles with this type of theme, they are used to contain ashes and will not run away.
Dou Sprout patted the soil, unscrewed the bottle, took a sip of water, and suddenly said: "Zhao Xuanxuan, there seems to be an old man behind you, wearing a shroud with a green face."
Xiaoxuan stared at Douyazai coldly.
The next second, she raised the Luoyang shovel high and slapped the bean sprouts on the head.
Dou Sprout threw the water and ran away, shouting: "I was wrong! Sister Xuan, I was wrong!"
"Don't make trouble, don't run around here."
Xiaoxuan listened to me and still chased Bean Sprouts with the Luoyang shovel. As Bean Sprouts was running, he suddenly tripped over something and made a thud! He fell face first to the ground and wailed continuously.
Brother Yu helped him up and told him to be careful and stop running around.
I walked over and took a look with my flashlight, and found that what tripped Bean Sprouts was a cylindrical stone sticking out of the ground, like a head of some kind of stone sculpture, with a square hat on.
I frowned and dug a few shovels down, and soon the facial features of a stone warrior statue were revealed. The face had been buried in the soil for who knows how many years. It was severely oxidized and gave people the impression that it had gone through many vicissitudes of life.
The diameter of this stone warrior statue's bald head is only half a meter! You can imagine how big the body buried in the soil is.
This thing is strange to ordinary people, but it is nothing to us, and we have seen it a lot. It may be a stone statue that was placed here to guard the cemetery a long time ago. The mountains and rivers changed, and it was buried by the loess a few hundred years later.
Since it was almost dawn, I packed up my things and went back to continue exploring the forest the next day.
When we returned to the experimental field at dawn, Lao Guo saw us carrying several large jars back. His eyes immediately went straight, and he kept asking us what good treasures we had dug.
After sending Lao Guo away, Xiaoxuan wanted to open the small money jar weighing more than 20 kilograms first.
She squatted on the ground and fiddled with the knife for a long time. The mouth was opened, but the copper coins inside were rusted into a big piece and could not be poured out.
Xiaoxuan held the jar and shook it left and right. She became anxious and asked me, "I can't get Yunfeng out! Please think of a way!"
Seeing her anxious look, I smiled and said, "If you have a way, give it to me."
I took the jar, raised it high, and threw it to the ground. I heard a snap! The whole jar fell to pieces!
Kangding has a humid climate, so copper and iron rust badly. The money here has rusted into a big mountain of money.
Grass...
I probably looked at it and was dumbfounded! On the surface, Qianshan almost all contained the same kind of copper coins.
All are Kaiyuan Tongbao!
Why is a jar full of Kaiyuan Tongbao?
No one knows. You have to ask the person who buried the jar in the first place. That's what grave robbing is like. You will often dig up things you didn't expect.
Xiaoxuan looked a little disappointed and said, "It's over. Kaiyuan Tongbao is worthless. I heard people say that each one is only worth 20 cents. We wasted so much time."
"Not necessarily, Xiaoxuan. Most of them are worthless, but there are some that are very valuable. Maybe there are some in this mountain of money."
"In this case, you go to Lao Guo's kitchen, get a bucket, a bottle of sesame oil, a bag of alkaline noodles, and get the two watermelons he kept in the greenhouse."
"What to do?" Xiaoxuan asked.
I said you don’t understand, go and get it quickly.
The hard green rust on copper coins must be bothering many people. Most people in modern times use various chemical solutions or vinegar to remove the hard rust, but at the same time it will destroy the coating on the surface of the copper coins.
Well, it might even make the copper coin red, which would be useless.
Xiaomi once taught me a method, also called the Mi's money laundering method. So far, only three people know it. Let me teach it to you.
