Chapter 168: Tomb Robbery and Archaeology
readx;
The form of tombs in China for thousands of years comes from the feng shui layout of the five elements bred by the 64 hexagrams of Fuxi. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The old man is a professor in the archaeological circle, and Shen Meng is also his disciple at present.
"Underwater tombs are rare, and I've only encountered them three times. This cemetery is the most exquisite, looking at its style, it should be the cemetery of the kings and nobles of the Qing Dynasty. The feng shui pattern is quite good, you come and see. The old man said to Shen Meng.
Shen Meng saw the underwater cemetery for the first time, so he was very interested.
When she looked at the picture on the picture, the stone gate was carved with a lot of patterns, which looked very exquisite and mysterious.
"Do you want to pump water?" asked the graduate student next to the old man.
The pumping machine is ready, and it will take a whole day to drain the lake. However, if they don't drain it, they won't be able to study it, and even if the stone door of the tomb is opened, the lake will rush into it and flood everything inside the tomb.
"Hurry up and get the water clean as soon as possible. The old man spoke.
Shen Meng looked at it for a while, and couldn't see the reason, so he introduced Yang Fan and them first.
Yang Fan knew that this old man's name was Chu Xiushan, a professor of archaeology at Shuimu University, and he was very famous in the circle, and his status was the same as that of Jia Lao and them in the antique industry.
Shen Meng gave the picture to Yang Fan and they had a look, after all, these people were all playing antiques, and they still had some understanding of history and other knowledge, maybe they would recognize the patterns on it.
She herself is looking around, and she also has a little research on the feng shui pattern. If there is no water. This cemetery is treacherous. You must not bury anyone. But with water. That's another story.
"This archaeology is quite professional. Yang Fan said.
But the monk who quit greed pursed his lips: "Tomb robbery is tomb robbery, what kind of ancient test?"
In his opinion, the so-called archaeology is not much different from tomb robbery, which is also about digging graves, but with more care and less damage to the cemetery. But the tombs have been dug up by you, do you care how much they destroy?
And. These archaeological methods, means, etc. are completely the set of tomb robbers, and there are not many things that belong to "oneself".
"Ahem!" Chu Lao was slightly embarrassed and turned his face away.
Now, many people know about his achievements in archaeology, but few people know that he also has an identity. He is a tomb robber of the Authentic Sect, and a very famous captain of the gold school in ancient times.
The prototype of touching gold began in the Warring States Period, and he was proficient in "Finding the Dragon" and "Dividing the Gold and Fixing the Acupoints", focusing on technical links. Cao Cao set up the post of Touching the Golden School Captain to dig the mound, so the disciples of the Golden Gate are also called the Touching Gold School Captain. When it came to the time of the Song and Yuan dynasties. There are few disciples in the three sects of Faqiu, Yishan, and Jieling, so it is often considered that the sect inheritance is severed. Only one door left is touching gold.
In the Golden Gate lineage, only those who have obtained the orthodox Golden Talisman can be called the Golden Captain. The folk orthodoxy known as the digging of the hill is similar to the means of the Faqiu Tianguan, and is the best at calculating the location of the treasures of the ancient tomb with feng shui and astrological signs. Pay attention to acting, leave a way back, and do not do things absolutely.
This secret is that his son doesn't know, and because no one in the descendants is interested in archaeology, he is ready to pass on all the skills to Shen Meng, a female disciple. That girl's talent for tomb robbing is very high, which makes him very satisfied.
"How did you find this ancient tomb?" Yang Fan was curious.
It stands to reason that there is no trace of a cemetery in this vicinity, and all of them are buried at the bottom of the lake, so it should not be easy to find!
"An old friend of the old man lives nearby, I came to play for two days, and when I saw this lake, I immediately recognized it as an artificial lake, so I studied it and guessed that there was an ancient tomb below. Chu Lao stroked his beard and smiled, a little proud.
This method is now comparable to very few people.
Yang Fan listened to the old man's analysis, and immediately stood in awe, he was a capable person.
"Old Chu is very capable. ā
Chu Lao waved his hand: "I am also a three-legged cat kung fu, there are many capable people in ancient times, but unfortunately many things have been lost." ā
He told Yang Fan that in ancient times, there were many capable tomb robbers, and a tomb robber with no name might be better than him.
"When I was first liberated, I shot an old tomb thief who sold all the cultural relics and national treasures he had stolen in his life to foreigners. That guy is a powerful, well-known Wen family. Specializing in robbing the tombs of the Han and Tang dynasties, as long as the unearthed artifacts are smelled, they can be accurately determined. ā
He told Yang Fan a story about a tomb robber who brought some old lacquerware, saying that it was from a princely tomb. He leaned on the couch, picked up a piece of lacquerware while smoking opium, put it to his nose and sniffed it, and said with a smile: "Brother Ren, your lacquerware has been soaked in a urine pit, and the time to take it out should be about seven months." This person was shocked and said, "Offended!
Yang Fan was very emotional after hearing this, although tomb robbery is disgraceful, it is also a university question.
He hadn't heard of the tomb robber that Chu Lao said, but he heard of a tomb robber named "Jiao Si".
That guy not only mastered the ability to distinguish the texture and color of the soil that ordinary tomb robbers would have, but also was good at using some natural phenomena to help him find the location of the grave.
For example, "thunder and lightning", Jiao Si went out to rob the tomb during the thunderstorm, he asked the people who robbed the tomb with him to stand in four different directions, after the rain, the people in the east ran over and said that when the thunder just now, he heard a faint sound in the underground in which direction he wanted to respond. Jiao Si was very happy and said, "We found it!"
It sounds amazing, but it's also backed by science.
The underground where there is a tomb is empty, and when there is thunder, it is easy to form a resonance, and it sounds as if there is something underground that corresponds to the thunder.
"I've never seen this thing. Hu Wei looked at it for a while and gave the picture to Yang Fan.
Yang Fan glanced at it a few times and felt a little familiar. It's a strange familiarity, I haven't seen those carvings, but it's familiar.
He pondered, trying to make sense of the situation. After a long time, he exhaled.
It turned out that the familiarity was conveyed to him by the Ming Mu Fu, and he really hadn't seen it.
"What? have you seen it?" Hu Wei's heart tightened, and when he saw Yang Fan's expression of relief, he knew that this guy knew about those carvings.
"It seems to be a feng shui formation. Yang Fan said.
"Feng Shui Formation?" Old Chu glanced at Yang Fan in surprise, with a faint suspicion in his eyes.
It's no wonder that he doesn't recognize those things, although he doesn't specialize in feng shui fortune telling, but he does have some involvement. If you know a young person, can you not doubt it?
"Baishi Fu Yin Array, there should be a dragon vein underneath, which is locked. Yang Fan said the information sent by the Ming Mu Fu.
After speaking, Hu Wei and the others all looked at monkeys with the same eyes. I know that this kid is very good at antiques, but I never knew that this guy could still play feng shui! )
