Chen Zhi and the others began to walk into the darkness ahead, and the buildings there began to show their full shapes...
It was indeed a sacrificial temple, square and simple, without any decoration.
The temple's roof reveals its curved shape in the darkness, which is a typical pre-Qin period style.
However, the workmanship of the entire temple is relatively thick and the color is gray. It is difficult to tell what color it is in the dark.
The entire sacrificial temple looks like a big stone, like a clumsy jade blank. We know that there is something inside, but there is really no clue about it outside.
The temple feels a bit eerie in the dark. I wonder if it is because of the air pressure here, which makes people feel depressed and resistant, and they dare not enter easily...
According to past habits, Chen Zhi and the others first checked around the entire temple. This temple had no windows, no back door, no external decoration, and only an empty doorway.
The edge of the door was inlaid with red stone, just like the current red painted wooden door.
After entering from the door, I saw an empty area, and everything in the temple was fully exposed and could be seen at a glance.
This sacrificial temple is about 100 square meters, which is really not big and not too high.
There is not even a statue of a god in the temple, and there are no large stone monuments. The surrounding walls are all gray and primitive walls, and the ground is made of hard stone slabs.
The overall look is a bit disappointing, do you feel like you are in the wrong place?
But when Chen Zhi and others walked to the middle of the ground, they could clearly confirm that they were definitely on the right track.
The floor here is really simple, made of solid hard stone bricks.
The size of the stone bricks is very large, each one is two to three meters long and wide, making the entire temple floor look very unified.
But on the ground in the middle of the temple, there was a round piece of jade placed very casually, reflecting softly under the light.
Chen Zhi and the others walked over and looked at it with a searchlight. It turned out to be a double-row jade...
Jade is the oldest jade ornament in China. It is in the shape of a ring, usually with a gap in the ring.
It is said that this kind of jade was mainly used as earrings and accessories in ancient times.
Because small jade ornaments were often unearthed in pairs in the ears of the deceased, similar to today's earrings, while larger ones were unearthed from ornaments and talismans worn by the deceased.
But in fact, if you think about it carefully, you will understand that such large pieces of jade are extremely cumbersome for decoration and are basically not practical.
And so far, most jade ornaments have been found in cemeteries and have not been used in daily life. This proves that jade ornaments may actually have other functions in the pre-Qin period...
As for the real purpose, there are many opinions in ancient and modern times:
There is a saying that ornaments are used for decoration and have no meaning.
Others say that this jade is a kind of messenger, used to convey things. When meeting the jade, it means to break off the relationship and it is used to say goodbye.
But some people say that Yujue actually represents the law of heaven and earth, and is a form of hiding secrets in the pre-Qin era.
But how to hide it and the specific method of use are now out of the question.
This piece of jade in the ground is a pair of double rows of jade.
The so-called double-row jade ornaments are two pieces of jade ornaments carved directly on a single piece of jade, which are naturally joined together and inseparable.
This is a bit like a jade chain!
Each of this pair of jade stones is about the size of a bowl. When placed on the ground, it looks like an Arabic numeral 8 lying horizontally. But when you look closely, there are two bayonet holes on it, which can put the two jade stones back together.
, very clever.
Chen Zhi picked up the pair of jade stones, turned them over in his hands, then looked at the stone bricks below and stepped on them with his feet.
The bottom is completely solid and there are no mechanisms visible.
It seems that there is nothing left in this sacrificial temple except this pair of jade...
"It's really weird~~, is it just a pair of things?",
Fat Wei was shining a searchlight on the pair of Kodama Jue, his face full of bewilderment.
"Don't tell me about the tomb of the God of Cooking. In the end, a pair of things were sacrificed after all the efforts were made, right?
This is too shabby!!
How difficult was the economy of the Shang Dynasty at that time? The old emperor didn’t even give him any burial objects!!
There are no statues of gods or tombstones. It is worse than a common people's cemetery.
You are too damn cautious! You are so stingy!!"
"It's not important...",
Chen Zhi turned his head and glanced at Fat Wei gently:
"The most important thing is that there is no door leading to the main tomb!!"
"ah!
Ah! Right~", Fat Wei finally reacted at this time.
Although this square temple looks simple on the surface, it is actually a dead end.
Once here, there is no passage leading to the next exit.
The purpose of their coming here is to find the tomb, in other words, they want to find the coffin where the god was cooked.
But in such an empty place, there were no rooms or dark rooms, everything was clearly displayed in front of them, and there was nothing.
I'm afraid they came here in vain...
"Damn it!
Are you playing this trick with me?",
At this time, Fat Wei put all his equipment on the ground, opened the zipper of the package, and started to get his assembly tools.
"I want to hide the cemetery and build a temple on it to pretend to be mysterious, but I am too underestimated!!
This is what I do in my profession. As long as there is a hole underground, I can definitely point it out for him.
I said Orange, don’t worry about it, just wait nearby!!”
After Fat Wei finished speaking, he started to lie down on the ground with the guy, touching every square brick, knocking here and there, looking for possible traps and holes.
This small temple of less than 100 square meters was quickly explored by him.
But in the end, it was discovered that the stone bricks below were all solid, and there was no possibility of any mechanism.
After that, Fat Wei didn't care to hold back his anger softly. He simply started playing tricks, assembling all the simple tools in the tool bag, and pulled the ghost knife to help.
If you see any noise, dismantle it.
However, the entire temple is made of hard stone, which is extremely hard. It is really difficult to insert a hole and pry open the stone slabs.
With their efforts, they finally pried open two large floor tiles and found that there was still dirt underneath, with no sign of any passage.
Fat Wei became anxious now. He dug out another floor tile along the corner of the wall and dug five or six meters deep. Finally, he put down the shovel to detect the soil and found that there was no problem with the soil quality.
In other words, from here to below, there is nothing but real land...
