Chapter 449: Surveying the terrain
"This Qianling is so famous, will it have been stolen by others?" Walking An Xiangfei suddenly asked.
Mu Xiu thought about it, waved his hand and said: "It shouldn't be, since the Qianling Tomb was protected, it is impossible for ordinary tomb robbers to rob the tomb. ”
"And what about before?" An Xiangfei asked.
"Poof, that's not very likely, haven't you heard a few stories about Qianling?" I asked disdainfully
"No, I don't. What legend you can tell me quickly, let me also increase my knowledge. An Xiangfei suddenly became much more excited.
I smiled slightly and said mysteriously:
"Whether the Qianling Underground Palace was stolen and the treasures in its body have always been a matter of great concern. According to the literature, at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the peasants revolted, and the Huangchao was huge. Due to the lack of military resources, he used 400,000 soldiers to dig up the Qianling Tomb, digging a ditch more than 40 meters deep, and did not find the tomb crossing. So far, there is still a deep ditch on the west side of the main peak of Liangshan, which is called "Huangchao Ditch". In the fifth dynasty, Wen Tao was the envoy of the Later Liang Yaozhou Festival, "those who are in the territory of the Tang Dynasty will excavate them and take the gold treasures they have hidden." …… However, the wind and rain in Qianling cannot occur. "In the early years of the Republic of China, warlords fought and robbed ancient tombs. Under the guise of protecting Qianling, Kuomintang general Sun Lianzhong led his subordinates to station Qianling, and used the method of real guns and artillery exercises to cover the troops of a division to steal and excavate Qianling. The soldiers used explosives to blow up many places, but they could not find the entrance to the tomb. Later, when the soldiers were digging blindly, there was a sudden thunderstorm, which did not stop for several days, and rumors spread in the army for a while, saying that Wu Zetian had manifested the clouds...... The theft and excavation failed, and Sun Lianzhong hurriedly led his troops to leave Qianling. ”
"Am I going to be so evil, it looks like we've hit a hard bone this time." An Xiangfei said in a low voice. But as soon as he finished speaking, he added: "But that was in ancient times, and according to the current level of technology, this tomb should not be so difficult." ”
"It's hard to say this, we'll know in two days." Makushu said.
At this time, we happened to walk around the Qianling Tomb for half a circle, and on a stone tablet, we just introduced the story of the discovery of the Qianling, and walked in to take a look at the record:
"The Qianling Tomb Road was discovered by several farmers in the late fifties of the last century.
In the winter of 1958, the Sealand Highway through Qianling was rebuilt, and a large amount of stone was needed. The peasants near Qianling went to Liangshan to blow up stones to get materials. On the afternoon of 27 November, peasant He Sheshe and several companions blew up stones on the southeast slope of the main peak of Liangshan Mountain, one kilometer north of the Wuzibei Monument. Unexpectedly, after the third cannon exploded, a few stone bars flew out of the air, and the smoke dissipated, He Sheshe and a few companions ran over to take a look, only to see that the explosion surface was full of stones, as if they were manually chiseled, with words on them, or something like steel bars connected to them, "Could it be that the aunt's mausoleum was blown up!" The peasants who had lived in Qianling for generations followed Wu Sansi and called Wu Zetian his aunt, and they knew that the bombing of Qianling was a big deal, so they immediately went to the Qianling County Government office and reported the situation to a cadre surnamed Yang. When Cadre Yang heard a few peasants say this, he was also shocked and opened his mouth for a long time. He did not dare to slack off, and immediately reported it to the secretary of the county party committee and the county magistrate. After listening to the report, they did not believe that the peasants could blow up the Qianling Tomb with soil explosives, because Sun Lianzhong in the early years of the Republic of China could not blow up the tomb with foreign explosives. Although they were suspicious, they still asked Cadre Yang to go with the peasants to have a look. There are fifteen miles from the Qianxian County Government to the Liangshan Tomb crossing, and the traffic was inconvenient at that time. When Cadre Yang and his entourage arrived at the place where the artillery was fired, it was already evening. Cadre Yang looked at the scene, and there were indeed stone bars. After he asked a few peasants to cover the explosion point with gravel, he told the peasants that it was forbidden to blow up stones here, and that it was not allowed to publicize the blowing of stones. Hearing what Cadre Yang said, several peasants packed up their tools and went home.
Cadre Yang reported the situation to the county leaders overnight. As soon as the secretary and the county magistrate discussed, they asked him to put down other work, take care of this matter, and immediately go to the provincial capital to report to the superior in charge. On 4 December, the Shaanxi Provincial Cultural Affairs Commission sent Yang Zhengxing, Luo Zhongru, and others to Qianling to immediately investigate the place where the peasants blew up rocks. In February 1960, Shaanxi Province established the "Qianling Excavation Committee." And on April 3, the excavation of the tomb road of the Qianling underground palace began. On May 12, the masonry of the tomb was fully revealed. Excavations show that the tomb road of the Qianling underground palace is in the southeast halfway of the main peak of Liangshan, and is composed of two parts: a trench and a stone cave. The trenches were 17 meters deep and were filled with stone strips 1.25 meters long and 0.4 to 0.6 meters wide. The tomb road is slope-shaped, with a total length of 63.1 meters, wide in the south and narrow in the north, with an average width of 3.9 meters. The stone strips are stacked and buckled along the slope from south to north, a total of 39 layers, 410 pieces of plane luolu, and about 8,000 pieces of stone strips are used for 39 layers. The stone strips are fixed with a dovetail-shaped thin waist iron bolt plate, and the holes between the upper and lower are pierced with iron rods, and the molten tin iron juice is poured into one, and the stone strips are melted as a whole. The excavation situation is the same as the record of "The Old Tang Dynasty Book: The Biography of Yan Shansi" "Qianling Xuanque, its door is blocked with stone, and its stone gap is fixed with cast iron". In addition, archaeologists have not found any traces of robbery and disturbance around Lingshan, thus proving that Qianling is one of the imperial tombs of the Tang Dynasty that have not been stolen and excavated. ”
Throughout the ages, how many gangsters racked their brains and tried their best to find the Qianling underground palace tomb crossing.
"Then according to what I said above, there are really people who have entered the underground palace." An Xiangfei said with a little surprise.
"Yes, I heard that Guo Moruo was also ready to mine this Qianling Tomb but was stopped by our beloved Premier Zhou, saying that it was not allowed to be mined within a hundred years." I said as I walked forward.
"Oh, then what are we going to do, it's so heavily guarded, and it's full of heavily armed guards." An Xiangfei said with a worried face, and then looked at Mu Xiu's relaxed face, Gu Bu walked forward, and said in his mouth: "When the time comes, the mountain people have their own clever plans." ”
"Poof" I couldn't help but stick out my tongue at Makushu's back.
", it's selling off again." Saying that, An Xiangfei and I chased after him.
"What a clever plan you have?" I asked.
"I don't know, but it's imperative that we take a good look at the topography so I can figure out where to start." Makushu looked around, took out the compass and looked at it, and then quickly put the compass into his arms.
Only then did I understand why the shogunate had come in for a tour, it turned out that he had come to survey the acupuncture points. Seeing Mu Xiu's behavior, An Xiangfei and I understood it, and instead of continuing to ask, we looked around carefully to avoid being suspected by the guards, and Mu Xiu took out the compass every few steps to take a closer look
