Wang Guan did not expect that in Tang Qinghua's mouth, he had been promoted to become a big collector. At this moment, after he and Yu Feibai left the residential area, they immediately drove in the direction of Beibi Mountain.

If you want to talk about Beibi Mountain, it is a great literati landscape in Luoyang. Not only is it beautiful and beautiful, but it also has the first ancient tomb museum in China. There are many tombs on the mountain, as evidenced by the ancient poems of the Tang Dynasty poet Wang Jian: there is no idle soil on the north side of the mountain, and it is all the old tombs of Luoyang people. There are many people in the old tombs, and there is no place to buy the gold.

From this poem, we can know that the modern sky-high cemetery is not the first to be created, and it also has certain historical roots. Anyway, in the Tang Dynasty, the land in Beibi Mountain must have been expensive, and sometimes even gold could not be bought. The graves on the mountain are piled up, stubble after stubble, and there is hardly any place for lying cattle.

This is definitely not an exaggeration, just think about it. As the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties, Luoyang has a very long history, so since the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the Ming and Qing dynasties, countless princes and generals, talented men and celebrities can find graves on the mountain.

Born in Suzhou and Hangzhou, died and buried in the north.

This sentence is widely spread among the people, but only when he arrives in Bishan does Wang Guan know the meaning and weight of this sentence.

According to Hou Lao's instructions, the two came to Cuiyun Peak, stood on a high place and looked around, only to see that on the soil ridge of the northern mountain, hundreds of tall and majestic covered bucket-shaped ancient tombs were dotted around, or scattered, or concentrated appeared, which looked very spectacular.

Seeing this situation, Wang Guan naturally couldn't help but sigh: "It is worthy of being the best in China." ”

Pishan is the largest mausoleum group in China, one of the largest national cultural relics protection units in the country, its distribution is dense, the number is large, and the duration of the age is long, naturally it can be called the most in China.

According to historical records, more than a dozen emperors such as Liu Xiu and Yuan Hong reigned in the world, and thousands of generals such as Zhang Yi, Fan Xu, Ban Chao, and Di Renjie were celebrities. Many foreign kings such as King Fuyu and Quan Boy, and even Liu Chan, Li Yu and other kings of the dead country, all rested in peace on the soil ridge of dozens of miles north of Luoyang City. As for the tombs of ordinary rich and noble families, there are countless of them.

From the Han Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, the area around the north of Luoyang has always been a place of eternal rest, and the dignitaries and wealthy businessmen of the past dynasties are proud to be able to get a cemetery in Pishan. Generations of Luoyang people, as well as countless foreigners and foreigners, regard Bishan as the end of their lives.

The reason for this is mainly the majestic mountain in this place. The water is deep and the soil is thick, and the water of Yi and Luo runs through Luoyang City from west to east. The tomb is erected here, which is very in line with the feng shui theory of pillow mountain and river advocated by the ancients.

To put it bluntly, this is a treasure of feng shui in the eyes of the world. In Feng Shui theory, the burial ground emphasizes the condensation of vitality, the wind cannot blow, and there is a flow of water to stop the vitality. That is to say, the meaning of the so-called qi disperses when the wind blows, and the boundary water stops. The area of Pishan can be said to be the north pillow of the mountain, and the south of Luoshui. It is an ideal feng shui blessed place to rely on the mountains and face the water, and the Tibetan wind gathers qi.

In addition, everyone in the world has a herd mentality, thinking that since the emperors of the past dynasties are buried here, then to a certain extent. It also directly confirms the statement that this is indeed a treasure of feng shui.

After thousands of years of accumulation, this concept has naturally formed a unique culture, even deep-rooted. In this case, it is not difficult to understand that there are so many imperial tombs and ancient tombs concentrated on the mountain.

Just when Wang Guan sighed. A young man walked over and asked politely, "May I ask if it's Mr. Wang Guan?" ”

"Yes, I am."

Timely. Wang Guan couldn't care about his emotion, and hurriedly nodded: "Did Elder Hou ask you to pick us up?" ”

"Hmm."

The young man smiled and nodded: "Old Hou has something to do, and it's inconvenient to come over, so let me come over and take you to see him." ”

While explaining, the young man also beckoned the two to get into the car, and then drove away slowly and walked around the mountain. It is worth mentioning that Bishan is not just a mountain. In the geographical sense, the mountain is very extensive, it connects the Qinling Mountains in the west, and stretches along the south bank of the Yellow River to the south bank of the Yellow River in the east to the Guangwu Mountain in the north of Zhengzhou City, which is more than 100 kilometers long.

Even in the narrow sense, the mountain is not small, the approximate range is at the confluence of the Yellow River and the Luohe River on the east and west lines from Mengjin to Yanshi on the north side of Luoyang City, about 50 kilometers from east to west, and 20 kilometers from north to south. The place must be relatively wide, otherwise it will not be able to accommodate the mausoleums of many princes, generals, and cloth people for thousands of years.

However, the car is passing through the mountains, and the more you go, the more remote it becomes. If it wasn't for saying hello in advance, Wang Guan and Yu Feibai were really a little suspicious that the young man was planning to kidnap the ticket.

In any case, the car was picked up by the young man, and after twenty minutes or so, it finally stopped at the foot of a higher hill.

"Here we are."

At the right time, the young man opened the door and got out of the car, and greeted with a smile: "Old Hou is in the tent, I'll take us over ......"

"Here it is...... Archaeological camp? ”

Naturally, the two of them also got out of the car and looked around with some surprise. I saw that the camp was relatively large, with ten camping tents stationed in it, and many stoves were also built.

At this moment, there are many people in the camp who are washing rice and choosing vegetables, and it seems that they are going to make lunch. However, many more people are concentrated in higher ground, digging with tools such as hoes and shovels. Bishan is a place where the mausoleums are concentrated, and those who dare to dig in broad daylight are either farmers who plough the fields or archaeological teams.

"That's right, it's the archaeological team." The young man was also a little surprised, after all, in his opinion, Hou Lao should know what was going on when he found someone to come over, but they didn't seem to know about the situation.

Despite the doubts in his heart, the young man didn't say much, and led the two of them directly to a tent in the middle of the camp.

"Old Hou, I'm picking someone up."

Approaching the tent, the young man did not rush in, but reminded him in a loud voice.

“…… Come on in. ”

Hou Lao's voice came out, and then someone opened the curtain in the tent.

"Huh!"

Seeing the person who opened the curtain, Wang Guan and Yu Feibai were very surprised: "Boss Fang, why are you here?" ”

"It's not just me, but also Elder Zeng." This person was Fang Mingsheng, I saw him smiling, like a master, and said, "Come in, I'll wait for you." ”

"Zeng Lao is also here."

In an instant, Wang Guan and Yu Feibai glanced at each other. More certain of their previous speculations. The matter is absolutely inseparable from the things of the organ box, otherwise Zeng Lao would not have traveled thousands of miles to Chaozhou.

"Hou Lao, Zeng Lao......"

Of course, the two of them didn't think much about it at this time, anyway, they would definitely know the answer later, and they walked directly into the spacious tent at the moment, and sure enough, they saw two old people drinking tea and chatting.

"You're here......"

At this time, Hou Lao smiled and beckoned, and he didn't look anxious at all.

"Come, sit down and have tea." At the same time, Zeng Lao also said with a smile: "This is the authentic oolong tea I brought from Chaozhou." Come and taste it, too. ”

Seeing the two of them so calm, Wang Guan and Yu Feibai also calmed down, walked over directly and sat down, and then raised their glasses to taste the gongfu tea brewed with oolong tea leaves.

After a round, after drinking a few sips of tea soup, Wang Guan's spirit was also invigorated, and he tasted it calmly. It's just that Yu Feibai couldn't hold it back, and finally asked: "Old Hou, is there a big tomb in the design of the underground palace in the trap box?" ”

"Guessed it?"

Obvious things. Hou Lao didn't intend to hide it, he nodded directly and smiled: "It's here, I guess you should have expected it, there are two pieces of cloth in the machine box." One piece of cloth is the design of the underground palace, and the other piece of cloth is the specific location. According to our research, this tomb should be nearby. ”

"Did you dig it out?" Yu Feibai asked with concern.

"Almost." Hou Lao smiled and did not reveal specific details.

"Oh." Yu Feibai was a little disappointed. But he was also very happy: "It's best to dig it, after all, I heard that the mausoleum on the mountain can be said to be nine out of ten tombs." I'm afraid that this place will also be stolen and dug up, so the bamboo basket will be empty. ”

"Not only are there ten tombs and nine emptiness, but even ten tombs and ten empty cases." Speaking of this topic, the smile on Hou Lao's face flickered, replaced by deep sorrow.

Ten tombs and ten emptiness, this is not an exaggeration. After all, since the Han Dynasty, it has been common for princely tombs to be stolen and excavated. It is said that Liu Xiu, the Guangwu Emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, witnessed the tragic situation of the Western Han Emperor's Mausoleum being stolen and excavated near Chang'an, so he ordered the world to implement a simple burial.

It wasn't until later, when Liu Xiu sat firmly on the country and began to build his own mausoleum, he was still worried that if the imperial mausoleum built was too ostentatious, it would be difficult to escape the doom of theft and excavation by future generations. In fact, Liu Xiu was very prescient, and his worries were not superfluous.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, before the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao, as the overlord of one party, directly used his brains on the ancient prince's mausoleum in order to raise military materials. Not only him, but also the princes at that time, Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao and others, including the Yellow Turban Army, the Black Mountain Army and the like, have more or less done this kind of lack of morality.

Before Cao Cao became the hegemon of the north, the area around Luoyang was the territory of the Western Liang warlords. The warlord who was born in a martial arts is not as particular about his appearance as Cao Cao, and he signaled his subordinates to act secretly and pay attention to the influence. For Xiliangjun, face etiquette is all false, and the actual benefits are the most important.

When Dong Zhuo sent Chang'an to the west, he directly destroyed Luoyang in a fire, so his subordinates could not reap the benefits, so they naturally targeted the mausoleum in the mountain, which should be the first time that the tombs in the mountain were seriously damaged.

However, history is always repeating itself, after returning from chaos, the emperor and the general did not learn a lesson, and continued to build a mausoleum and a tomb on the mountain, and then it was stolen and dug up in troubled times. And so it goes on and on, without rest.

However, the tomb robbery that really caused serious damage to the tomb group occurred in modern times, triggered by the construction of the Bianluo Railway. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Qing government borrowed money from a Belgian company to build the Bianluo Railway, which passed through the southern foot of the Bishan Mountain, and continuously dug up ancient tombs when taking soil on the spot, which aroused great interest from foreign technicians present, and they collected a large number of antiquities and sent them back to Europe and the United States.

I heard that the contents of the tomb could be sold for money, at that time, China's economy was withering, the country was in chaos, and many greedy people began to search and dig ancient tombs everywhere...... (To be continued......)
