Chapter 467: The Bronze Gate

Two lifelike golden snakes, staring at everyone, although they knew that the road was fake, but everyone still had a creepy feeling, a statue like a snake, an ordinary cemetery is impossible to appear.

Except for some ethnic minorities, snakes are a symbol of evil, after a person dies, how can he carve a snake that symbolizes evil in his own cemetery, especially in ancient times, then it is even more important to pay attention to these things, every carving in the cemetery, every thing, is allegorical.

This is also the reason why those tomb robbers can easily enter some ancient tombs to steal tomb goods, because as long as they understand tomb science, they can easily know the scale and design of an ancient tomb.

Qin Yu once heard Bao Lao say that in the early days of liberation, there was a master who was a master of the northern Tufuzi, and it is rumored that every time this person entered a tomb, he only stayed for an hour, and after an hour, regardless of whether he had a harvest or not, he immediately withdrew from the ancient tomb.

At that time, many people did not understand why he did this, and it was not until the day that the master washed his hands that he told his peers why.

It turned out that the ancestors of this master were a family of stonemasons, and his ancestors only built tombs for the dead for several generations, and accumulated over several generations, from princes and nobles to the cemeteries of peddlers and pawns, and there were thousands of architectural drawings left behind.

In the generation of this master, it is in the age of war and chaos, and it is difficult for ordinary people to live, where can they take care of the dead.

Seeing that the business was not good, this master suddenly came up with a bold idea, so many cemetery design drawings of his ancestors, with these drawings, he could completely go and rob a few tombs and let him live.

At that time, there were many wars in the country, and tomb robbing became a trend, and this master became a leader in the tomb robbery industry in just three years with his understanding of ancient tomb architecture.

And he has been robbing tombs for decades, but he has not hung a single color. It is also related to the thousands of design drawings left by his ancestors, the tombs he stole were all in the drawings handed down by his ancestors, and with these design drawings, he could avoid many dangers, and in an hour, it was enough to go from the thief hole to the top.

In his words, there are blueprints. It can be completed in an hour, if you can't steal something in an hour, it can only mean that this tomb is very peculiar, not an ordinary tomb burial method, such tombs are generally heavy, so in the face of this kind of tomb, he gave up directly.

The deeds of this tomb robber also reflect the seriousness of the tombs of the ancients from the side. There are certain routines in the specifications and architecture of the cemetery, rather than being built as you want.

Qin Yu and the four of them continued to walk forward, starting from here. Every ten meters there will be a bronze door frame, and the same bronze door frame has two bronze carved golden snakes in the upper left and right corners of each bronze door frame.

"Mr. Qin, did you say that we would enter a snake cave. Peng Fei looked at these golden snakes and couldn't help but speak.

"If it's the snake cave, I don't know if I pushed open the door in front of me. Qin Yu turned around and smiled. Then he turned the bright light into the distance, only to reflect a golden light.

"This is a gilded bronze door?"

Qin Yu and the others walked to this golden bronze door, and Zhuang Rui touched it with his hand for a while. Said to the crowd.

This bronze door is plated with a layer of gold, and the previous golden light is flashed by this layer of gilded reflective strong light, this bronze door is very simple, so simple that there is no stripe pattern on it, it is just a smooth bronze door.

"This tomb is very abnormal. Zhuang Rui pinched his chin with his fingers and said.

As soon as Zhuang Rui's words came out, Qin Yu and the others showed strange expressions on their faces, this ancient tomb was already something that everyone knew was abnormal, from the previous heavenly punishment to the bronze door frame that had just walked through, these had already proved the strangeness of this ancient tomb.

After Zhuang Rui saw everyone's strange expressions, he patted his brain, knowing that they might have misunderstood the meaning of his words, and explained: "I mean, the specifications of this ancient tomb are a little different, you look at the lintel on this bronze door." ”

After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Qin Yu's eyes looked towards Lu, on the bronze door, there was indeed a beam, this was a rectangular stone beam, glued together with the stone wall above, there was only a slight difference in color, if it wasn't for Zhuang Rui's reminder, he really hadn't noticed.

Seeing this stone beam, a thoughtful light flashed in Qin Yu's eyes, and he understood what Zhuang Rui meant by what he said, this ancient tomb is indeed a little different in size.

But Qin Yu understood that it didn't mean that Zhuang Rui and Nazahar also understood Zhuang Rui's words, Peng Fei looked at the stone beam on the door and asked, "Brother Zhuang, what's wrong with this lintel?"

"This lintel in ancient times is not any person who built a house can be installed, ordinary people can not have a lintel, only those court officials live in the mansion can have a lintel, as for the rich, even if it is rich and rival the country, as long as there is no official status, there can be no lintel. ”

"We often hear a word, called: glorious lintel, get ahead, in fact, this is the ancient people's yearning for status, only with an official identity, can you glorify the lintel, glorify the ancestors. ”

"The same cemetery after the death of this person also has such specifications, the tomb door of ordinary people is not allowed to have a lintel, if it is to withstand the pressure of the earth above, it can only be supported by stone slabs. ”

After Zhuang Rui finished speaking, Peng Fei still looked puzzled and said, "Doesn't that mean that the owner of this tomb was an official in front of him?"

"I usually tell you to read more books without doing anything, but you just don't want to, and now you still ask such a low-level question. Zhuang Rui did not answer directly, but opened his mouth to teach Peng Fei a lesson, Peng Fei is obviously often educated by Zhuang Rui, quite a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, and said with a smile:

"Isn't it because Brother Zhuang is here, it's useless for me to learn. Besides, I get dizzy when I see a book, and I'd rather fight the white lion than read it. ”

Peng Fei's hippie smiling face made Zhuang Rui grit his teeth angrily, but now at this time, he didn't say much about him, so he could only explain patiently: "In the tomb of ordinary officials, there will be a record of the official's life on the tomb door, which is called the literati tablet. ”

Qin Yu listened to Zhuang Rui's explanation, a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, Zhuang Rui's words were a little unexplained, this literati tablet, in fact, is the hope of these officials After arriving in the underworld, they can still enjoy privileged treatment, this literati tablet is a bit similar to a modern letter of introduction.

"Maybe this bronze door is not the tomb door of this cemetery, the real tomb door is inside this bronze door. Peng Fei put forward his own opinion.

"Have you ever seen a person with two doors with lintels on them?" Zhuang Rui glanced at Peng Fei and said angrily.

Peng Fei scratched his head and thought about it, in his impression, it seems that there really is no house with two lintels, of course, the mansion here refers to those ancient houses. Renovated or antique houses are not among them, and sometimes they ignore these rules for the sake of overall aesthetics.

"Brother Zhuang, you forgot a possibility. Qin Yu looked at Zhuang Rui, at first he also thought that there was a problem with the construction of this ancient tomb, but just now when Zhuang Rui explained to Peng Fei and them, he thought of a possibility.

"If the owner of this tomb was a military commander during his lifetime, then all this makes sense again. ”

Qin Yu's words made Zhuang Rui stunned for a moment, and then a look of sudden realization appeared on his face, and said: "Qin Yu, what you said is right, I didn't think of this aspect, if it is a military general, it is indeed possible to do without the literati monument." ”

"Brother Zhuang, Mr. Qin, in fact, I don't think there's any point in us discussing this here, since we've come to this point, we always have to go in, whether it's a civilian, official or military general, when we go in, everything will be clear. ”

Peng Fei pursed his lips, according to his theory, he should have broken into the door, and when he got inside, wouldn't it be clear whose tomb it was, and he would be able to study outside for a long time?

Qin Yu and Zhuang Rui were stunned for a moment when they heard Peng Fei's words, the two glanced at each other, and Ha Lu Ha Da Lu laughed, too, their current behavior is quite a bit of an ancient sour Confucianism, this is all at the door, just break the door and go in, why do you have to study for a long time.

"No wonder some people say: scholars make mistakes, which is sometimes overthinking, and it is indeed not a good thing. Zhuang Rui sighed and said.

The laughter of the two made Peng Fei on the side full of doubts and puzzled, could it be that what he said just now was so funny?

"Let's go inside. ”

Qin Yu no longer hesitated, put his hand on the bronze door, and pushed it straight in, and after a few "squeaks", Peng Fei couldn't wait to take the strong light and shine towards the door.

"Damn, what is this?"

Peng Fei's strong light shone inside, and countless cold lights were reflected at once, the brightness of this strong light was a thousand degrees, Peng Fei burst into tears on the spot, and hurriedly turned off the strong light in his hand and closed his eyes.

"Qin Yu, can you see what is inside?" Zhuang Rui saw Peng Fei's appearance, his expression became nervous, and he asked Qin Yu.

"It's a mirror!"

Qin Yu's brows also furrowed, after the bronze door was pushed open, there was still a corridor inside, and when Peng Fei's strong light shone in just now, he could see what was inside.

In the corridor, whether it is on both sides of the corridor, or under the feet of the head, it is no longer a cyan slate, all of them have become mirrors, all mirrors, just now Peng Fei hurt his eyes because of the reflection of the mirror.

PS: The prize guessing link has arrived, guess who the owner of this tomb is, the first one to guess will be rewarded with a set of five elements of Taoism. (To be continued......)
