Xiao Fei Zhenzhen said: "According to what we saw in front of us to the well-preserved tombs in their original state, we can infer the complex and cumbersome burial process of the tombs at that time, they first dug up large sand pits in an orderly manner, and then put the processed and wrapped deceased in the appropriate position, and then put the coffin together in turn, covered with cover plates, cowhides, and then planted erected wood and wooden pillars before and after the wooden coffin, and finally repeated in the grave pit, layer upon layer of sand, sand piling. Therefore, the position where we are standing now, that is, the sand dunes in front of us, is definitely not a naturally formed landscape, but a layer of tombs and a layer of sand that is densely piled up and stacked on top of each other. And the project is huge, the time is long, as for how many layers are under the tomb and how many coffins there are, that is the matter of archaeologists, we do not know, this is a mystery. "By the way, why are these oars so wide?" Hu Jiaojiao said puzzledly, puzzled by the oar-shaped wooden pillars in front of her, Wang Gongzi said thoughtfully: "About these oars let our descendants know that the people buried here often paddled in their lifetimes, they are the ancestors who like to boat on the lake, free and unrestrained. Zeng Lu said curiously: "Then why do they have to erect so many wooden pillars on the sand dunes? What are they for? It's really incredible, it's really puzzling, and it feels like it's completely redundant." Xiao Fei pondered for a moment, and said thoughtfully: "I think those strange-shaped pillars may have been large buildings in the past, such as the Jongmyo or the like, but after they were built, the wind and sand here were too strong, so they had long been blown away by the desert wind." Wang Gongzi said disapprerovingly: "I think it shouldn't be so complicated, I think it's a totem or something." ”

Quicksand said puzzledly: "Those poplar pillars have multiple edges, circles, oars, and ridges ranging from 6 to 20 edges, what is the meaning of these shapes and numbers?" Because he was also fortunate enough to take Xiao Fei's math class, he benefited a lot and knew more. Everyone shook their heads incomprehensibly, unable to answer at all.

Wang Gongzi was also extremely curious and said: "The wasteland here is an endless desert for hundreds of miles, why is there only a cemetery here? Where do these large wooden pillars come from? What are those tools that make wooden pillars into polygonal bodies? Where are they? Moreover, it is common sense that there should be ruins of human life around such a large cemetery, but why there are no such ruins in a radius of five kilometers in the cemetery, and there are only graves alone? It is really puzzling. ”

We all shook our heads, unable to answer, and perhaps the self-righteous archaeologists were not in agreement, and it was difficult to answer such a difficult question. Because this is the largest number of dried corpses unearthed in the world, it is unique in the world, and it is still unclear how many remain. The excavation and research of this kind of superimposed tombs and other relics is a rare archaeological topic in the prehistoric era of Xinjiang, and will also have a great impact and far-reaching impact on the prehistoric archaeology of the vast area around Xinjiang.

Xiao Fei whispered to me thoughtfully: "This kind of tomb is unique in our country, it is unique, and there is no tomb similar to it even in the world. Because this form of burial is so strange and unique, that you will not find a second such burial method anywhere in the world. Therefore, if we want to accurately answer all the secrets of Xiaohe tombs, we cannot fully explain them by relying only on those one-sided archaeological and historical knowledge, and we should invite first-class experts in various disciplines to the excavation site and place them in the real environment for specific research, including archaeology, environment, anthropology, botany, zoology, primitive religion and other multidisciplinary experts to participate in order to achieve final success. ”

Hu Jiaojiao asked everyone in confusion: "Some of these wooden pillars are painted red, why is this? What do the horizontal decorative patterns carved on the wooden pillars represent? It is really incredible, and I can't understand it." ”

Zeng Lu Daigo said: "Isn't it that these ancestors worshiped the sun, so this pillar hall of the god of death is shrouded in a dazzling red, and they like red very much, just like we respect yellow, and the horizontal ornamentation carved on the wooden pillar is not a scale to record their age at the time of death." Xiao Fei was full of praise and said: "It's very good for Miss Xiao Zeng to make a bold guess, but it still needs to be rigorously and carefully verified, as for the answer, it is estimated that those professional archaeologists are not very clear, only to ask the dead ancestors." ”

"Yes, we're all busy talking, we need to open these ship-shaped coffins and take a look. Hu Jiaojiao sighed and said, yes, yes, Xiaofei also nodded in praise, so we all hurriedly dug up the heavy sand, only to suddenly realize that the surface of the sand dunes was only a part of the columns, and most of them were buried in the depths of the sand. There is usually a coffin underneath each of the thick columns. The poplar pillar at the front of the coffin is thick, and the red willow stick at the foot of the coffin is smaller. When digging down from a huge column to a depth of more than 1 meter, you will find the coffin of the next layer, and the top of the coffin column of the next layer has been intertwined with the coffin and column of the previous layer. Each pillar and the coffin are corresponding, these ancestors are really not afraid of trouble, good intentions.

We opened one of the boat-shaped coffins at random, uncovered the layers of heavy cowhide that were tightly bandaged, only to see that the light yellow coffin with the color of yellow sand was as fresh as ever under the wrapping of the cowhide, intact as before, and there was not even a single grain of sand in these huge boat-shaped coffins into it, which was really rare in ancient times, and the owner of the tomb was lying quietly inside, with a peaceful face and well-preserved, and slept peacefully in the coffin like a boat. This raw, yet safe design gives us a glimpse of the leopard's falling asleep thousands of years ago. The deceased lay on the sand and fell asleep forever, time and space stood still here, there was no life and no death, only the eternal forest tranquility and serenity, it looked so natural, lifelike, as if alive, just sleeping quietly like a sleeping beauty.
