Three Night Pearls in the Mancheng Han Tomb (4) (13th Supernatural Event)

So where is the best place for a collective accident? It's the tomb. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoGenerally, after the tomb is built, the owner of the tomb will cause the so-called tomb collapse accident. The tomb must collapse, otherwise it is difficult to explain to the outside world, as soon as the tomb collapses, these tomb-builders will have to die in the tomb, although some of these tomb-builders have been poisoned, and some have been directly killed, but there is no way, the burial is certain! Therefore, the general tomb robbers will be very excited when they see that there are many private skeletons in the tomb, and they will definitely steal a big tomb, which is called "big zongzi" in the jargon.

Of course, there are many ways to avoid tomb robbery, such as the "three caves of the cunning rabbit", such as the tomb of the son and mother, and so on...... But these are all time-consuming and laborious, and there is no simple way to directly "kill people and sell goods".

Some people may question the identity of these tomb makers, why are they willing to build tombs for the emperor's generals? Isn't this self-defeating? When someone uses their power to threaten your family, to threaten your life, you naturally give in. Digression: It is precisely because of China's "thick burial" system that after Lu Ban, there are no more skilled craftsmen in China. Those exquisite mechanism designs in ancient times eventually became children's "playthings". What was really used in architecture has long been lost!

In fact, those skilled craftsmen also have a "struggle", and when they learn that they are building a tomb, they try to leave a way back for themselves as much as possible, such as once they are buried alive in the mausoleum, they must give themselves a way to escape. But the establishment of this escape passage is very passive, it can only be used for the possibility of being buried alive, and it is also very easy to be discovered by those tomb owners, who casually let a cronie make a little poison in this passage, which is considered a perfect crack! Sprinkle poison, it can really be said that God does not know the ghost!

Getting back to the point, 03 walked out of the house after looking at the corpses, and then asked the military to burn the four corpses. 01 did not give the military time to hesitate, and directly under his supervision, the incineration work was completed, and 03 returned to the station with 02 and reported what he learned to Mr. Guo Moruo.

The rest of the matter follows the flow of archaeological work. Early the next morning, Mr. Guo Moruo led the archaeological team to the relevant sites. Although Mr. Guo Moruo did not explore the path last night, he analyzed a lot of detailed information according to the pathfinding situation of 02 and 03, which has to be said to be inseparable from Mr. Guo Moruo's cultural heritage. After Mr. Guo Moruo arrived at the scene, he looked at the terrain and feng shui, which was exactly the same as the pathfinding situation he learned yesterday, so he arranged for his subordinates to go to various locations to "fix the tomb".

Tomb: It is the jargon of the archaeological community, it is a rough quantitative work before the archaeological team opens the tomb, the tomb is very particular, the area is small, it is very likely that it has only opened to the "tip of the iceberg", the area is large, then the workload is geometrically rising. Tomb fixation is entirely an experience and a sensitive sense of history. According to the relevant regulations of the Han Dynasty and the size and distribution characteristics of the tomb of the "king", Mr. Guo Moruo set the area of the tomb at 3,000 cubic meters. It was later proved that Mr. Guo Moruo is worthy of being a leader in the Chinese archaeological field, the total volume area of the Han tomb in Mancheng is 5700 cubic meters, of which Liu Sheng's tomb is exactly 2700 cubic meters, and 3000 cubic meters of the fixed tomb volume is almost consistent, and the 3000 cubic meters found later is the tomb of Liu Sheng's wife Dou Juan, which is a big unexpected discovery!

After all the personnel are assigned, the next step is to dig up the earth and dig the grave with the assistance of the military! An archaeologist assigned a sapper to excavate the earth at a fixed point, and this kind of work is definitely not comparable to the tomb robbers.

The first step of archaeology is called "rough excavation", with the deep pit as the core, the cemetery point as the auxiliary, the sappers are digging with this shovel over there, and 02 and 03 are assisting Mr. Guo Moruo to do the "spreading" work at the deep pit, because this deep pit is the initial discovery point, and has been judged to be the upper Yongdao, so this point has become the focus of the first step of "rough excavation" work.

Due to the suspicion of poison in this upper corridor, 03 prepared the nearby green grass early and boiled it into juice for everyone to take to ensure that nothing went wrong! "Rough excavation" work is to dig up the soil and stones above the tomb, which is mostly rough work, and it stands to reason that experts like Mr. Guo Moruo do not need to participate. But the old gentleman's profession, braving the scorching sun, and a few assistants were beside the sappers, and every time the sappers dug a shovel of soil, Mr. Guo Moruo had to look at the dirt to determine how far away from the location of the tomb.

"Rough digging" is the most tiring work, is the archaeology, the lowest technical content, as long as there is a strong link, everyone worked together, digging to noon, Mr. Guo Moruo shouted "stop", all the archaeological members have passed the word, to stop the excavation of the sappers next to them. Then everyone looked at Mr. Guo Moruo, only to see him jump into another newly dug pit, looking at the dry soil and rocks, nodded with satisfaction and said, "This is it!" ”

02 and 03 came over separately and took a look: the tomb in ancient times was 100% dry in order to rot by moisture, 100% of the drying project has been lost, and now the drying project is used with chemical agents, this thing has a short drying time period, and the most can ensure the drying process for decades, and the short one is a few years and a few months, the most obvious is the desiccant that we often put in food bags. When you see the dry earth and rocks, you know that the tomb is about to surface! At this time, Mr. Guo Moruo began to set up tools and do the necessary "soil sealing" work. (Editor's note: Sealed soil: is a proper name in the archaeological community, to put it bluntly, it is to do the relevant preservation of the cultural relics that are about to be revealed, with the development of science and technology, archaeology has also been changing with each passing day, and today's archaeology also has carbon dating and endoscopic technology, which did not exist at all in the sixties in China.) In order to facilitate the understanding of readers, the author tries not to use professional terms here, and uses the most simple words to show the archaeological process to the majority of readers! Then Mr. Guo Moruo called everyone over, pointed to the dry soil and stone on the ground and said: "Comrades, please stop the rough excavation immediately once you dig out such soil and stone in the process of rough excavation, and then make a report, and wait for my next guidance, is it okay?" After the sappers had identified the dry earth and rock, they received the order to return to their respective points of origin and continue the rough excavation until about 15:00 in the afternoon, when the rough excavation was complete.

At this time, Mr. Guo Moruo had already followed his assistants to open up the entire Shangyong Road, and Mr. Guo Moruo carefully studied the Shangyong Road, and the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became, and immediately found 03 and followed him to study the "secret" of the Shangyong Road.

Mr. Guo Moruo: 03, I have already observed Shangyong Road, and it is very consistent with your inference, this tomb has traces of tomb robbery, and the tomb robbers are definitely a gang.

03: Well, that's how I judged when I saw that corpse.

Mr. Guo Moruo: Then you should also know that the traces of this tomb robbery must have happened not long ago, right?

03: Yes, judging by the appearance of the deceased, he should have just died, Mr. Guo, how do you tell that this tomb robbery happened not long ago?

Mr. Guo Moruo: The traces of crawling in the upper corridor. The upper Yongdao is a simple passage, can only allow one person to crawl out, this upper Yongdao in the construction, obviously more hurried and rough, the material used is actually containing dry ingredients of soil and stone, so when crawling will leave obvious crawling traces, more importantly, presumably the owner of this tomb knows about the matter of the Yongdao, so the poison used is powdered, mixed in this soil and stone, when people crawl, once the dust is inhaled, it will be poisoned and die. I saw some poison ingredients at the scene, so I judged that the tomb robbery had indeed happened not long ago. (To be continued)
