The nerves of the staff who entered and exited the archaeological site were relatively tense, and the staff wearing chemical protective clothing immediately stopped his steps after hearing this, and he turned around a little nervously and asked Tang Fengdao: "What's wrong?"

"Don't step on your front feet. Tang Feng walked quickly into the tomb door and came to the side of the anti-chemical personnel, after that, he squatted down and began to carefully observe the stone slab that the person stepped on. ”

Although everyone thought that Tang Feng's entry into the archaeological team was completely nepotism, on this occasion, no one would think that Tang Feng would joke about this kind of thing. The anti-chemical personnel withdrew their footsteps and exited the tomb door according to their words, Tang Feng took out a small hammer and began to knock on the stone slab, and sure enough, there was a sound from the ground, and there must be something underneath, as for whether it was a trap or a trap, it was unknown. Tang Feng turned around and asked Zhang Keming, "Professor Zhang, what now?"

Archaeology is a serious discipline, of course, archaeologists are not lacking in rigor, Zhang Keming walked into the tomb door and came to Tang Feng's side, he looked at the surrounding situation, and said: "It should not be a dark crossbow, but a trap." "Although the ancient tomb is strange, it is a man-made structure after all, and it is impossible to violate the laws of nature. Because this huge underground palace is under the whole boulder, the structure is very stable, so there is no support column inside the whole underground palace, the field of vision is very broad, if you want to install the dark crossbow, you must dig a pit on the stone wall of the underground palace, but the stone wall of this underground palace is very smooth, there is no trace of artificial excavation; and the height of the ground in the dome of the underground palace is ten meters, it is very difficult to install the dark crossbow at the dome; in addition, only in the stone carving is installed inside, according to the level of science and technology at that time, it is basically impossible to realize; furthermore, the installation of such a mechanism must be set up in the underground traction system, which is equivalent to turning the underground upside down, and the amount of work is doubled。 Considering that Song Huizong ascended the throne as emperor in 1100 and went into the field in 1125, and the chief designer Li Jie died in 1110, the construction time of this underground palace will not be too long, so its design cannot be so complicated.

Tang Feng smiled and said, "Maybe it's not a mechanism, but a place where the treasure is hidden." "This possibility is almost zero, and Tang Feng is joking to liven up the atmosphere.

"Haha. Zhang Keming smiled and said, "For the sake of safety, let's try it with stones." ”

Then, the personnel were evacuated, the wheeled air compressor, to be exact, the gun head of the wheeled self-propelled air compressor was hoisted on the stone, Zhang Keming knocked on the windshield on the cab of the air compressor, and said: "There should be no problem with ordering another wooden board." "While believing in modern technology, we should not underestimate ancient technology, not to mention the recent crossbow arrows in the Qin Dynasty can penetrate the windshield and kill the driver within fifty steps.

After a while, the stone hoisted by the wheeled air compressor drove to the suspected trap, the gun head fell, the stone fell to the ground, and with a bang, the stone slab flipped in response, the stone fell, Tang Feng came to the slate, this is a trapboard, and an iron rod is worn in the middle, which will be turned over once it is load-bearing. Looking down again, there are all spikes with pointed upwards, although these metal spikes have already shown signs of corrosion, but if someone falls, it is estimated that it will become the living sacrifice of Song Huizong.

Due to the discovery of the trap, the whole archaeological work was forced to stop, and the workers began to clear mines, and the staff with the harmful gas analyzer were like Tang Feng, using hammers to open the road step by step, which was troublesome but also brought a benefit, which was very beneficial to the cleaning of the tomb. Slow work out of fine work, four days passed, the entire underground palace found a total of more than 30 traps, each key location has it, fortunately it is a national archaeology, if it is a gang tomb robbery, the loss can be big.

On the afternoon of the fourth day, the lighting and ventilation system inside the underground palace was completed, and Zhang Keming immediately announced that he would officially enter the underground palace on the fifth day.

In the afternoon, Liu Yue and Tang Feng climbed the mountain on the boulder together, and the two sat down facing the deep pool, Liu Yue pointed to the faintly visible modern cemetery on the opposite Beibi Mountain, and said: "Born in Suzhou and Hangzhou, buried in Beipi, history has long proved how ridiculous this is, but modern people still can't see through it, and the move of spending a lot of money to sell the Yin Mansion is also a little more generous." ”

Tang Feng said: "The more generous people are, how greedy they are, and the reason why they are generous is because they get much more in return than the cost they pay, and there is even an element of being a thief." The so-called theory of ghosts and gods is completely a psychological suggestion of human beings themselves, not so much that ghosts and gods are fooling the world, but that the world is fooling the gods and ghosts and themselves. ”

Liu Yue looked at Tang Feng and said, "What about you, what words come out of your mouth have changed their taste, the possibility of being a thief is not very good, and the dead can't see these aftermaths, they are all for the living." ”

"Seriously, Liu Yue, every time I see you, I have a feeling of hating to see each other. Tang Feng said this sentence for no reason, most men are greedy, even if they understand it in their hearts, they don't forget to infiltrate two sentences on their lips. In the face of Liu Yue, Tang Feng's solid mental defense line is like the current Great Wall, which has become a tourist area that can be crossed.

There are no confidants in this world, some are just men deceiving themselves.

"Tang Feng, you've become bad. Liu Yue smiled and said to Tang Feng: "Maybe this is a good thing, otherwise there will be again."

Aunt Qiong Yao's miserable and tragic bloody plot was staged, and the world was catastrophic. "The two of them already know the current situation, if there is no Lin Muyu, it is entirely possible for Tang Feng and Liu Yue to come together, in that case, Tang Feng will face new troubles, how can the girls of the big family be so easy to dominate themselves.

Tang Feng sighed and said: "'If' is the most harmful word in this world, and if there is no 'if', the world will be much quieter." From the rebels who steal the country, to the criminals who take risks, to the thieves who take the sheep, they all have "if" in their hearts, and "if" I am ***...... Facts have proved that after all, it is only a minority that "if" has achieved positive results, and most people have been harmed by "if".

Liu Yue asked Tang Fengdao, "Man, what do you want to say?"

"Hey. There was no bottom on this topic, Tang Feng had to change the topic, he said: "Let's get down to business, what do you think is the difficulty of the ancients to carry out large-scale construction underground?"

Liu Yue couldn't wait to kick Tang Feng into the deep pool, this guy fled immediately after two sentences for no reason, despite this, Liu Yue still cooperated with Tang Feng to change the topic, she thought about it and said: "Of course it's a ventilation problem, I'm very strange, how did Li Jie solve this problem, this is more than 300 meters underground." "The emotional film between Tang Feng and Liu Yue is actually very fragile, and what is missing is just an opportunity to break out, and it will be difficult for anyone to control it at that time.

Tang Feng said: "So I think that this underground palace still has secrets that we have not discovered, with the technical conditions at that time, the only way to solve the ventilation problem is to start digging from this side of the cliff at the same time, and then plug it after completion." ”

Liu Yue shook her head and said, "I don't think it's possible, but your inference just now reminds me, I think there is another possibility, there was originally a cave under this boulder, and it was dug up after digging into it on the other side, which is also the reason why the imperial tomb can be completed in just 10 years." ”

Tang Feng nodded and said: "I think your idea is more realistic, Song Huizong is only qualified to build the imperial tomb after his accession to the throne, even if someone takes over after Li Jie's death, the construction time of this underground palace will not exceed 25 years, Song Huizong finally saw that the general trend has gone, and has to close the imperial tomb before the Jin soldiers attack, which shows that there will definitely be a large number of treasures inside the underground palace, but our preliminary detection these days has not found such valuable burial goods as the porcelain of the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty." ”

Liu Yue said: "Maybe it's because the treasury was empty at that time?"

Tang Feng laughed and shook his head, he said, "If Song Huizong can take care of this, he won't be the most emperor in history. 'Huashigang' was actually the fuse that triggered the Fangla uprising in the second year of Xuanhe, which had only more than 100 people at the beginning of the uprising, and reached 200,000 people in just a few days. In the Shunmin society of ancient China, if it weren't for the rulers who made it impossible for the common people to live, who would risk the crime of killing their heads to rebel?"

Compared with the mediocrity and incompetence of Song Huizong, Emperor Chongzhen, who hanged himself in the coal mountain, can be regarded as a Ming monarch. If it is in modern times, Zhao Ji's resume of Song Huizong will be very bright, in addition to the position of "emperor", I am afraid that "painter" and "calligrapher" will also be written. Generally, emperors with a level of making limerick poems and writing fat heads and big ears are very remarkable, but if they are like Zhao Ji, the level of writing, painting, and writing poems has reached an unprecedented level, it is undoubtedly a great misfortune for the country. Look at who he appointed, Cai Jing, Wang Huang, Tong Guan, Gao Yu, Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng, Zhu Mian, the emperor in just 25 years, it is not easy to gather so many ancient "best talents".

At that time, Song Huizong had a whim to build the country's largest garden project "Genyue", that is, a modern artificial rockery. The rockery needs to be decorated with strange stones and rare flowers and trees, so he set up a bureau in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and Zhu Mian, a native of Suzhou recommended by Cai Jing, was the leader to collect strange flowers and stones in the southeast of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. After the flowers and stones are searched, they are transported to the capital by waterway, and a group of ten boats is called a "gang", which is the "flower stone gang".

The flower stone class has lasted for more than 20 years, and later, not only the stone of Taihu Lake, the bamboo of Zhejiang, but also the lychee of Fujian, the coconut fruit of Hainan, and even the exotic flowers and fruits of Liangguang and Sichuan, all searched. In order to ensure the transportation of Huashigang, even the official and civilian transportation at that time had to make way, and countless ships and merchant ships were forcibly requisitioned, and the people who were requisitioned up and down the country were as many as one million.

The slogan of the Fangla uprising was to punish Zhu Mian on the side of the Qing monarch, saying that Song Huizong was "instigated" by Zhu Mian and other villains, the colored dogs and horses were so rotten, the flower and stone outline worked the people and lost the money, and the northern capture lost power and humiliated the country.

After the incident became bigger, Song Huizong had to pretend to be guilty of his own edict, revoke the Suzhou and Hangzhou Yingfeng Bureau, suspend the operation of Huashigang, and dismiss Zhu Mian. At this time, Song Jiang listened to his nonsense and crusaded against Fang La, but everyone knew that the rabbit died and the dog cooked. As for Song Huizong, before the rest of Fang La's troops were completely cleaned up, he slapped himself, revived the Huashi Gang, and reinstated Zhu Mianguan, so that the emperor deserved to suffer **.

All kinds of signs are showing that the imperial tomb of Song Huizong will never be so shabby, and there must be something that has not been discovered.

Liu Yue nodded and said, "Hearing you say this, I really think that we still have places that have not yet been discovered, and it is impossible to look at the scale of this underground palace." "Doubtful graves are also called false graves, fake graves, false tombs, etc., is one of the most famous anti-theft means, Cao Cao in the historical record has seventy-two doubtful graves. To put it bluntly, the suspicious grave is to fake a number of tombs and hide the burial place of the real corpse.

In short, Tang Feng thought that there were still treasures in this underground palace, and Tang Feng was excited at night and didn't sleep well, if he found a hidden treasure, should he tell Zhang Keming, or should he keep the secret first, and then steal it himself? Of course, the latter is pure imagination, and the loss is too great.

The next day, Tang Feng, Liu Yue and Zhang Keming bypassed the "landmines" they found and went straight to the coffin, the coffin storage place of this underground palace was like the center stage of a big star's concert, and those stone carving troops were like a fascinated audience, they were all facing the coffin.

The central depression where the coffin is located is divided into four steps that slope downward, each step is 5 meters high, which is said to be a staircase, but it is actually very open, 10 meters long. Song Huizong's artist's character is evident here, with buildings on each staircase, which are like today's parks, with pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, and real people can walk directly into them.

With the coffin as the center of the circle, four passages extend in all directions, Tang Feng is not interested in the opening of the coffin, and there will definitely be no corpses inside. The ancient funeral system is much the same, the thickness of the coffin that the Son of Heaven drove into Tibet, the number of layers, and the spatial layout of the burial goods around the coffin are regular, and the burial goods in the coffin will definitely not be put in first, although it is an empty coffin, and there are no burial goods, but the archaeologists also have to be careful to guard against the mechanism, which is the most likely place to set up the organ "general gate", fortunately, they have a high-sensitivity instrument, do not worry about being hit.

After saying hello to Zhang Keming, Tang Feng and Liu Yue began to inspect the future staircase scenic spot together, and the feeling of strolling through the staircase pavilions was very wonderful, and the only fly in the ointment was that there was no water under the small bridge. Tang Feng believed that if Song Huizong was finally buried here, there should be mercury under the small bridge.

Mercury is a liquid metal that is very versatile and was a common embalming agent for corpses in ancient times. In the tombs of the Qin, Han and before, there are many records of the use of mercury, and there is a mercury pool in the Qihuan cemetery. In addition, the toxic gas formed by the evaporation of mercury can also play a role in killing and injuring tomb robbers.

Among the mausoleums that used mercury to fight tomb robbery, the most famous is the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang. Sima Qian's "Records of the First Emperor of the Qin Dynasty" has the following records, with mercury as a hundred rivers and seas, the machine is instilled, with astronomy on the top and geography on the bottom.

Sima Qian's description of the interior of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has not yet been answered, but one thing is certain: there is a factual basis for mercury as a hundred rivers and seas, and according to the identification, the mercury content of the soil in the mound of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is eight times that of other places in the vicinity. Mercury has evaporated and infiltrated into the soil, which is enough to indicate that there is a large amount of it inside the underground palace

The presence of mercury.

After the carpet tapping of the archaeological staff, Liu Yue and Tang Feng no longer worried about the trap, and after walking for more than three hours, they came to the artificial building at the bottom, the theme here is to depict the street scene of Bianjing in the Northern Song Dynasty, giving people a feeling of entering the "Qingming Riverside Map", I don't know if Li Jie referred to this national treasure when he built this underground palace. However, there are no statues of people in these landscapes, and fortunately Song Huizong is not buried here, in case he wants to think of performance art, many people will be unlucky.

"Yo, it turned out to be Tang Gongzi, I haven't seen you for a long time, today I have a fate, how about going in and drinking a glass of water and wine?" Liu Yue said to Tang Feng in a tone of voice.

Tang Feng looked at the restaurant on the side, learned Liu Yue's tone and said, "Miss Liu, please." ”

Liu Yue corrected him and said: "It should be Liu Gongzi, how can women in the Northern Song Dynasty be so open." ”

Tang Feng said: "You are still serious. ”

Liu Yue took out the map inside the archaeologists and said: "This restaurant has a wine cellar, there is really wine, the wine cellar has been investigated, there is no organ, we can smell the wine, drink wine, it will be exempt, it has not been identified, maybe it will be poisonous." ”

Tang Feng said: "Even if it has been identified, what can it be? This is a cultural relic, you can't drink it, let's go, go to the wine cellar and have a look." ”

The two came to the wine cellar, and Liu Yue said: "Tang Gongzi, the things here can't be moved, maybe just turning a wine jar will touch the mechanism." ”

Tang Feng stretched out his hand and touched a wine jar, and said with a smile: "Liu Gongzi's words are wrong, life is not martial arts, where will there be so many organs." ”

The shape of this cellar is a deformed "convex" shape, except that the protruding part is narrower, no more than two meters long and wide. Liu Yue was about to speak, and inadvertently saw a painting hanging at the bottom of the "convex" glyph, she said while walking towards the painting: "Hey, there is a painting here, which famous artist's handwriting?"

Tang Feng said casually: "Young Master Liu, you'd better not go into this kind of small corner, the organs in large places can't be designed, and small places ......" Tang Feng hadn't finished speaking, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, there was movement in the mouth of the protruding part, and he hurriedly shouted: "Liu Yue, come out quickly!"

"Well, that's a pretty good painting... Ah, what's wrong?" Liu Yue turned around, everything was too late, above the mouth of the protruding part, a stone slab fell with a bang, Liu Yue didn't have time to react at all, Tang Feng's reaction time was more than Liu Yue, and his skills were faster than Liu Yue, and when the stone slab was about to be sealed, he leaned over and rolled in.
