Chapter 280: Red Brick and Green Tile House

After removing the stones, Lin Musen was finally able to see the eerie appearance of the cave

When you encounter a cave, you can't get into it right away, it's common sense.

But Lin Musen didn't have time to wait outside for a long time. So he decided to take the risk anyway.

If there is poisonous gas underneath, arson is the best option.

In the mango orchard, the fire has just been set out, so there is no shortage of fuel. At least some of the charcoal remains were left behind.

Picking up firewood is also considered a normal thing. It is estimated that Zhuang Xiaowei will not have any doubts when he sees it.

When throwing firewood and leaves down, Lin Musen judged the depth of the bottom of the cave by the sound. Looking down from above, there will be some visual errors. It's safer to test with this method.

Lin Musen estimated that the depth of the underground will not be too deep, and it is estimated that there is a depth of the second floor.

Fortunately, he had already prepared in his heart, and when he went to buy a diamond machine, he bought a rope by the way.

For people who are used to mountaineering, it is not too difficult to climb down two floors with a rope and a few nails and chisels.

When climbing a mountain, you will often encounter an environment where there is no road, or the path leads to a road that goes straight up and down.

By the time he had put the rope in order and secured it nearby, the flames were almost gone.

Lin Musenjin waited for a while, practicing his self-created martial arts moves, and was sweating all over his body before pulling the rope and jumping off the cave.

Lin Musen took a moment to step on the ground, looked up, and the light could fall smoothly, so his position was not too gloomy.

The cave was not big, and he found that the ground here was very flat, and if he hadn't thrown something down to burn it, there should have been no debris, only dust that had escaped from nowhere.

Thick, stepping on it will slightly excite the dust.

This place is beyond Lin Musen's imagination. The cave in his imagination is either a buried treasure or a warehouse where things are piled up.

If it's both, there should be boxes and bags, large and small. Then, because of the rat infestation, a few holes are bitten, and the contents will fall out, revealing rusty gold, silver, or at least copper coins that large families often keep in their cellars.

But Lin Musen only saw the flat ground. You can even see the place, there should have been a tree, but the trees are gone.

"No potatoes, no cabbage, no carrots. I heard that these plants are especially suitable for placing in the cellar space. ”

Lin Musen continued to walk forward, and the light gradually dimmed, so he turned on the safety light on his hat.

His hat is not a special hat, it is a hat that ordinary pit workers wear.

What Lin Musen prepared this time was very targeted.

After walking about fifty meters, he realized that what he had thought was a wall turned out to be a wall.

It is not accurate to say that it is a wall, it is very much like the blue bricks paved in front of the loess cave, but Nandayuan Island is a red earth belt, so the bricks burned here are reddish in color, so here are red bricks.

Of course, the house has no glass, and there will be no glass windows.

When the house was built in this place, the glass industry in Hsinchu had not yet emerged.

But the house has small holes, and there are boards that look a little rotten.

Lin Musen remembered that in the museum, the window described in ancient times was a wooden board, and when the weather was good, the wooden board would be erected with a stick, and when it rained, the stick would of course be put away.

Now, the stick seems to fall to the ground, so the board was originally erected.

If he saw such a house on the Loess Plateau, he would think that this was a cave, and this was the great cultural heritage of human civilization.

But in the soil, there is a house made of red bricks, which is more or less strange.

Doesn't it mean that the ancestors were very poor? I remember that in the era of island governance, and in the early Qing Dynasty, when Hong Kong was opened to trade, most of the people still lived in earthen houses or thatched houses, and there was a brick house, all of which were rich families.

"I probably forgot that Zhuang Xiaowei was not an ordinary person's home, his family was a big landlord a long time ago, and at that time, a big landlord could apply to the county government to open up dozens of square kilometers of land.

If you plant such a large piece of land, you are not a rich man, and in the end you will become a rich man. ”

The instinct of the Department of Geography and Resources allowed Lin Musen to casually glance at the roof and roof ridge.

But after sweeping over, Lin Musen was stunned.

The ridge is combined with the roof of the cave, and it is not visible.

The "green" tiles can still be seen on both sides of the event.

"Green" tiles?

This reminded Lin Musen of the Hakka ancestral house in Miaoli Yuemei.

There is a courtyard house with more than 20 dragon guards.

The roof of the main house is covered with green tiles.

It is said that that place is the so-called shrimp hole in feng shui, and if the roof is built with red tiles, the shrimp will die, and the feng shui of that place will be destroyed.

Then the descendants of later generations did not know, and later replaced with red tiles, and the family slowly declined.

Red bricks and red tiles are normal for the people of Dayuan Island.

"Why are there green tiles here?

Lin Musen muttered.

If the history of this place is less than 400 years, then the construction of this place should have something to do with Zhuang Xiaowei.

If it is more than 400 years, it should be related to the Siraya tribe.

But this house is in the shape of a house in the Ming and Qing dynasties, so it is very unlikely that it belongs to the Siraya tribe.

"Could it be that this is their family's burial ground?"

Lin Musen knew that he might not be able to find the answer, and he had no talent for solving puzzles in the first place.

At most, I was able to observe more carefully, so I was able to notice some differences.

Forget it and take a look,

The so-called high-door family, but this house is only in the shape of a dragon, not a triple courtyard, nor a quadrangle.

It is not the basic shape of the front house and backyard of the shop.

A dragon, generally only if the family population is relatively simple, will be built in this way.

Generally speaking, it also represents ordinary people.

The wealthy like their own space, so the wealthy family likes the form of a triple courtyard or a quadrangle.

As for the gardens and small bridges and flowing water in Suzhou, there was no way to appear in the simple era.

Later, the more famous Banqiao Lin Family Garden, as well as the Wufeng Lin Family, were already the extreme.

By the way, as long as you find the hall number, you may be able to find the origin of this family, and maybe even the age can be found.

Traditionally, the place where the hall number is placed is the tombstone, and if it is a home, the hall number is usually placed in front of the main hall door.

Or above the place of worship of ancestors.

Lin Musen took a flashlight to shine on the top of the door, but found no similar plaque or words on it.
