393 Stepmother Wuding

"Oh my God!"

Through the long robbery hole, the tomb under the Han Tomb, as soon as he entered the side room, Chen Xiu almost didn't break out in a cold sweat.

I saw that the inside of the side room was covered with white bones, and most of the white bones were rotten as soon as they entered, leaving only a skull or a pair of teeth, or one or two femurs, even so, there were a lot of piles in the tomb. You can imagine how many people died in the first place.

"Look at your unproductive appearance!"

Obviously, Chai Hongquan and Tian Yinong often participate in the excavation work, and this kind of dead man's pit has not been seen uncommonly, they are not afraid at all, but they can't imagine that Zhang Lao is also calm, obviously he has also seen such a big scene, and there are many times.

Chen Xiu originally wanted to refute a sentence or two, but when he saw that Zhang Lao was actually squatting down and directly turning over the pile of dead people's bones......

Well, people can't be compared to people.

Although there are not a few people he killed, the killing process is actually very fast, and it will only be solved in a few seconds at most, but let him play with bones like mud, he really doesn't have such a heavy taste.

When it's time to admit it, it should be admitted.

"Judging from the situation, these bones should be more than two thousand years old!" Zhang Lao said as he flipped through the bones and analyzed.

Chen Xiu finally found a chance to refute this time, and complained: "Master Zhang, I don't need to look at this to know that it is more than two thousand years. The Han tombs above are all from the Western Han Dynasty before the New Dynasty, and they have been more than two thousand years, can this tomb under the Han tomb not exceed two thousand years!"

"Just you talk a lot!" Zhang Lao said angrily: "You are so good, then you can come and see who these dead people are?"

“......”

Well, I talk a lot myself.

These old men are all in menopause, and they explode at one point!

Tian Yinong said with a smile: "Little junior brother, in fact, this is not difficult to guess. Nine times out of ten, the people who died were the slaves and craftsmen who built the tomb at that time. And they struggled painfully before they died!"

"Senior brother, you are such a cow, you can know everything before you die!"

Chen Xiu looked at Tian Yinong with admiration, and felt in his heart: "Those who are serious about archaeology are different from cultural relics dealers like me, and their professional knowledge is solid!"

Tian Yinong smiled proudly, pointed to the stone door of the side room and said, "When you participate in a few more archaeological excavations, you can easily guess!"

Chen Xiu looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that the stone door that had been sealed was covered with scratches, and he ran over and compared it with his fingers, and said in surprise: "This is ...... It's all finger-grabbed!"

After the tomb was completed, the descendants of the owner of the tomb often buried the craftsmen and slaves alive so that they would not reveal the location of the tomb.

It is said that the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang originally mobilized 200,000 laborers and 30,000 troops. When Qin Shi Huang died, the mausoleum had not yet been completed, but Li Si and Zhao Gao buried 200,000 migrant workers and 30,000 troops alive under the underground palace in order not to let future generations disturb the first emperor after his death!"

"Lying down, the old society of all evils. I used to think that it was immoral to do archaeological work to dig other people's graves, but now that I think that digging their graves is actually to avenge these craftsmen and slaves!

I can't wait to go to the main tomb now to see who this tomb owner is, and go and lash him out!"

Chen Xiu finally found a reasonable excuse for his grave digging behavior.

The group walked through the side room to the main room.

I saw a main room the size of a basketball court, and there were many clay pots on both sides, even if there were occasionally one or two pieces of porcelain, it was also in the style of half pottery and half porcelain.

These things have a history of more than 2,000 years, and they are very valuable for archaeology, but they are not worth a lot of money in the antique market.

The things on the antique market before it are not that the older they are, the more valuable they are, but more importantly, the manufacturing process and artistic value of the items themselves.

If you don't refer to the artistic value and craftsmanship, it is more than 10,000 years old to get a stone on the mountain, wouldn't it be very valuable!

Obviously, although antiques carry the word "ancient", it does not mean that they are valuable because they are old. Just like the bowls and plates of the kiln in the Yuan Dynasty, they were only a few hundred yuan in the antique market, and 20,000 yuan was already the top of the sky.

Tian Yinong and Chai Hongquan's master and apprentice were both full of interest in those pottery, and they directly squatted down to study, while Chen Xiu and Zhang Haishan were just cultural relics dealers in their bones.

Zhang ...... Master Zhang, look!"

Everyone was awakened by Chen Xiu's sudden exclamation, and they all looked along their fingers, only to see that behind the sarcophagus there was a square tripod with a height of more than 130 centimeters, a mouth length of more than 110 centimeters, and a mouth width of about 80 centimeters

1。

The four corners of the abdomen, the middle of the upper and lower margins, and the upper part of the foot are all placed on the edges.

Chen Xiu looked at this Ding very familiarly, as if he had seen it there, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

However, Chai, Zhang, and Tian recognized the Fang Ding in front of them at a glance, and rubbed their eyes in disbelief.

Tian Yinong muttered in disbelief: "Stepmother Wuding!"

"It turned out to be it, no wonder I looked at it so familiarly!"

Chen Xiu thought about it all of a sudden, no wonder he saw it so familiar.

For the Xia people, whether they are interested in archaeology or not, they are familiar with it, because there is a picture of this stepmother Wuding in the first lesson in the history book.

The stepmother Wuding is said to be a bronze tripod made by the Shang king Wuding for his mother.

Wuding, the mother of the Shang Dynasty, is the oldest known bronze ware in the ancient Xia Dynasty, and it is well organized and meticulously divided, which is enough to represent the highly developed bronze culture of the Shang Dynasty.

Wuding, the mother of the Shang Dynasty, is also a first-class cultural relic prohibited from leaving the country, which can be seen in the status of cultural relics.

The earliest unearthed Wu Ding of the Queen's Mother of Shang was in 1939, when a farmer originally made a fortune by watching people from the next village dig oracle bone inscriptions, and also ran to dig his own ancestral grave, and dug up a bronze tripod.

The inner wall of the bronze tripod abdomen is cast with the three characters of "Houmu Wu", the font gesture is strong, the shape is plump, and the beginning and end of the strokes are more than the peaks and exposures.

Of course, some scholars have proposed that the word "after" should be "Si" in turn by the seal engraving method, and it is more accurate to say that it is also "Si, Mu Wu" in terms of the text, and the correct reading should be "Si Mu Wu".

Of course, the only way to read the specific one correctly is to ask the Shang King Wuding.

In 1939, the Shang Hou's mother Wu Ding had a broken ear, and the remaining ear was also broken down by the villagers and wanted to sell it to a mysterious seller, but it was not sold later due to various historical reasons.
