"If you tap a hole on the back of a walking dragon, half of it will escape and half of it will die. If the yin energy does not dissipate, it will be as cold as a cellar, and eventually the bones will not melt in the coffin."
In addition to the good embalming of the coffin, the accumulation of yin energy caused by Feng Shui caves also accounts for a large part of the reason why a person's body does not rot after death.
I have studied this large tomb before, and it happened to be built on the dragon vein of a flat-headed dragon.
A dead man riding on the back of a dragon is good for himself, but not good for his descendants.
This was not considered when this tomb was originally built, or to put it simply... the owner in the coffin has no descendants.
The huge main tomb chamber was empty and cold.
When I saw the lid of the coffin closed, I said doubtfully: "That's wrong... I remembered it wrong? The coffin didn't seem to have a lid at the beginning. What do you think, Brother Yu?"
"I don't remember." Brother Yu shook his head.
At this time Douyazai said: "Fengzi, look at you, you are so suspicious that you are scaring yourself. It was clearly covered when we left. I have a good memory, have you all forgotten?"
Maybe I really forgot to bring my equipment and go forward to open the coffin.
As soon as the coffin was pushed open, a rotten smell hit their faces, and everyone immediately covered their noses.
After waiting for a month to look at it, I found that there was still a lifelike corpse of a beautiful woman in the coffin. It was just a pile of rotten flesh soaked in thick water. The facial features of the female corpse could not be seen clearly.
When we poured water on purpose, we would dry it for thousands of years and wet it for ten thousand years, and it would only last half a year if it didn't dry or wet. This didn't go away.
Having learned the lesson from last time, I didn’t dare to turn on the lights this time for fear of attracting bugs, so I lit a few candles for lighting.
Dou Sprouts suddenly said: "Look, why are there so many maggots in winter?"
I also saw it and yelled: "Nonsense, who told you that there are no maggots in winter? Maggots are found all year round, but they are rare in winter."
Xiaoxuan frowned and said, "Can you two stop talking about it? It's disgusting."
Dou Sprout Zai retorted: "What's so disgusting about this? Zhao Xuanxuan, think about it from another angle. Are the people who send people away for the last journey all maggots? Maggots are good friends of human beings. Maggots are cute little people. People are too fond of maggots."
It’s biased.”
Xiaoxuan frowned and said, "Then take a handful of these cute little ones and show them to me."
Dou Sprout's face changed, and he said there was no need to eat maggots. I mainly wanted to remind you not to be afraid of these things.
We held chopsticks and colanders in our hands, just like eating hot pot, but instead of eating Haidilao, we were eating Coffin Dilao.
Brother Yu said: "There seem to be two pieces of jade floating here." After saying that, he fished them out of the smelly water.
When I looked closer to the light, I saw that these two pieces of jade were very white. One looked like a pig and the other looked like a horse. They were both long and strip-shaped, and their surfaces were covered with Tou Gu Qin.
If you see a strange, elongated jade horse, jade dog, etc. in the antique market, it is likely to be a jade hand.
I took a look and said: "What a good thing, Brother Yu. These two pieces are chicken bone white jade hand grips. They are made into a long shape to facilitate the dead person to hold them in his hands. These kind of things are easy to sell on the black market. There are pigs and horses."
, there should be other ones, and this kind of thing is most likely a complete set."
Sure enough, where we found the jade pig and jade fish, we successively found the jade chicken, jade cow, jade sheep, and jade dog. This is a complete set of six Xixia animal jade hands, all in good condition, and the total value of the set at that time
Probably around 80,000.
I dare not sell the artifacts that came out of this coffin directly. I told you that after taking the head back, I would throw it into boiling water and cook it at high temperature for half an hour. I had high expectations before coming here, but the fact is that there are not many artifacts in this coffin, and they are basically small.
There were about thirty pieces of goods, the most valuable of which was a white jade belt plate inlaid with gold wire. There was no object with a name or inscription on it.
What is his name? Who is his true identity? We have no way of knowing.
Such a large-scale Tushan tomb almost replicates the entire ancient Western Xia imperial mausoleum system underground! Originally, a tomb within a tomb was designed, and even the coffin was protected by corpse poison. However, no priceless cultural relics were found in the coffin of the tomb owner. Ghosts Know what's going on.
After finishing the work, Douyazai and I sat in the southwest corner of the tomb to rest and smoke. Douyazai looked around and said, "Fengzi, I guess the owner of this tomb is probably not Li Xian. Think about it, even if he was in trouble, he was still the emperor, and he also established the West." Wu Erguo, how could a person like him be buried with dozens of small things in his coffin?"
"So what do you think?"
Dou Yazai blew out a puff of smoke, pointed at the top of the tomb and frowned: "I think this big tomb is the imperial mausoleum, but this man died first and moved in."
Dou Yazai pointed at the red coffin and said: "Maybe he is Li Xian's imperial concubine. Because she is a man, she was opposed by the ministers of the Western Wu Kingdom and was prohibited from being buried in the imperial mausoleum. But Li Xian liked him, so he secretly buried her in the imperial mausoleum." He was buried here. At that time, he was afraid of attracting opposition, so he only dared to give a sparse burial."
Dou Sprouts usually says nine out of ten sentences that are unreliable, but there is one that is reliable. The more I think about it, the more likely it is that what he said is possible. Is this not the main tomb, but a companion tomb?
I immediately stood up, pointed to the north corner of the tomb and said, "Brother Yu, take a crowbar and knock the wall bricks hard a few times."
"Xiaoxuan, you go too and knock bricks on the wall in the west corner."
Soon, Xiaoxuan and Brother Yu were knocking on the wall bricks with a clanging sound.
I listened to the echo, frowned and said, "Keep knocking, don't stop."
"Fengzi, what are you doing?"
I ignored Dou Sprout and instead lay down with my ears pressed against the tomb floor tiles, listening carefully to the vibrations and echoes underground.
Sound can propagate through gases, liquids and solids. Even in a relatively closed environment, as long as it is not a vacuum, the sound can be transmitted to the surrounding walls.
If there is a small space behind a wall, the sound will be reflected back through the air after reaching the small space. Ordinary people's ears cannot detect this difference. Some animals in life, such as dogs, can.
At this time, he raised his head and frowned and said: "Yunfeng, Mr. Jiao and I inspected this place. There should be no tombs. Do you hear there is something wrong?"
"Stop it, Brother Yu, don't knock it yet."
I frowned and said, "It's not a trap. Just now Brother Yu knocked on the wall, and I always felt... the echo seemed to be blocked by something."
"you sure?"
"I'm not sure. I have a vague feeling."
"In which direction specifically?" He turned his head and asked again.
I shook my head again and said that the direction was not certain, it might be under our feet.
After hearing this, Tou Tou took a breath and said, "If it's really like what you said, it's a tomb within a tomb within a tomb."
People in ancient times were very sophisticated and were afraid of being stolen. Many people would hide valuables in the mezzanines of tomb walls. Now regular troops in the industry even use cavity meters. Wherever there is a mezzanine, the machine will scan it and it will be clear. Ours There was no such thing back then, so finding a mezzanine all depended on experience and luck.
Finding a mezzanine is a big problem. From my experience, let me give you an example in practice.
For example, there is a large-scale underground palace in the Tang Dynasty underground. Its structure is basically in the shape of a long strip, and there is a gap in the middle of the long strip! There are three thousand-pound stone doors! The area in front of each stone door is divided into tomb passages and caves. and patios. The more patios there are, the more distinguished the tomb owner was.
The owner of the tomb is a man. I have seen one with seven patios. The worst is a first-class official or a prince. The owner of the tomb is a woman. The highest I have seen is one with six patios. This can only be a princess.
Or for a princess, an ordinary tomb of Madam Gaoming would never dare to build six patios.
There is a small niche on the patio. The mezzanine is usually hidden behind the small niche. It can be opened with a crowbar. There must be something good hidden inside.
