Chapter 314: Everlasting Lamp
Su Jiu looked at the scene in front of him, and the ancient tomb road behind the stone gate had already been completed.
Out of the Yongdao, there is a huge stone chamber.
In the ancient tomb, according to the pattern of the formal burial of the Han people, after the ancient tomb Yongdao, it should be a side room, but the scene in front of him made Su Jiu completely stunned.
"How could it be the main burial chamber? What about the side rooms? Su Jiu muttered, looking at the huge main burial chamber.
The interior of the tomb was not as dimly lit as any other ordinary tomb, but had a faint oil lamp.
"Ever-bright lights? Oh my! Brother Su, is there an ever-bright light here? After Wang Xuan entered the ancient tomb, he saw the scene in front of him and immediately exclaimed.
Wang Xuan's heart was full of shock, this ever-bright lantern, in China, many people have heard of it, and it is not unfamiliar, in the feng shui world, the legend of the ever-bright lantern has always existed.
However, the ever-bright lantern is just a legend, and no one has ever seen it.
In the ancient tombs, it is common to see oil lamps on the stone walls, but they have been extinguished.
It is rumored that the lantern will always burn and bring light.
The ancient tomb, in China, is a person's yin house, in other words, in layman's terms, it is called the yin house where people live after death, and this yin house naturally needs lights.
And the ever-bright lamp is born under this kind of thinking.
Legend has it that the dead also need light to drive out the darkness and illuminate the way to Hades. Therefore, in some ancient tombs, before the tomb is sealed, it is customary to place a lamp inside to illuminate the path of the nine shadows for the deceased.
The scene in front of him obviously shocked Wang Xuan, this ancient tomb Wang Xuan can be sure that it has a history of thousands of years, and no one has ever come, but he actually saw a bright light here.
This phenomenon suddenly made Wang Xuan exclaim, it can burn a lamp that will not be extinguished for thousands of years. Appearing in front of Wang Xuan, how could Wang Xuan not be shocked?
"Brother Wang, don't go over!" Su Jiu stretched out his hand to stop Wang Xuan, who was exclaiming, and squinted at the scene in front of him.
The front is more than just a permanent light.
In the dim light of the ever-bright lamp. Su Jiu could vaguely see that the air under the ever-bright lamp was a little blurry, and something was wrong.
Among the ancient tombs, it is a thousand years ago, it stands to reason. An ancient tomb should be closed for thousands of years, but Su Jiu vaguely saw that the flying dust was flying with the flow of air, and under the dim light, he could see the traces of those flying dust.
This situation is obviously not right, as soon as Wang Xuan saw this ever-bright lamp, he wanted to step forward. Su Jiu naturally had to stop it first.
"Brother Su, what are you doing? That's a lantern! The thousand-year-old secrets of the Chinese feng shui world are about to be revealed! What are you holding me back? Wang Xuan was stopped by Su Jiu like this, and he was immediately puzzled.
The ever-bright lantern is a thousand-year-old puzzle in the Chinese feng shui world, and even in the archaeological world, no one knows why this ever-bright lantern can not be extinguished for thousands of years, you know, since the legend of the ever-bright lantern came out, there are countless people. Research and exploration for this purpose.
Even the feng shui masters in the feng shui world are exploring this secret.
A small oil lamp can burn for thousands of years, not to mention how long the oil in this oil lamp can burn. It is the science and technology of today's society, using fuel, even if it is specially made fuel, lighting a lamp to burn, burning for hundreds of thousands of years, not to mention hundreds of tons of fuel. It is impossible to store so much fuel and then burn it slowly, which is simply not true.
Some people may say that, in fact, this lantern does not burn all the time, but uses a special substance as the lamp oil, and its ignition point is particularly low, once the ancient tomb is opened, as the fresh air comes in, the lamp is lit instantly.
However, just now, Wang Xuan's eyes could see clearly, this everlasting lamp has been burning, and in this ancient tomb, he can also feel that there is no lack of oxygen, and there is no situation where the air does not flow, obviously there are special vents in this ancient tomb, so this explanation is not valid.
Wang Xuan was stopped by Su Jiu like this, and suddenly felt a little unhappy in his heart, as long as he went over and took down this everlasting lamp, to see what was the reason why the everlasting lamp could be made forever, or if this lamp oil was made of a special substance, then he would solve one of the biggest doubts in Chinese history, and for this reason, it is very possible to leave his name in history.
And at this moment, he was stopped by Su Jiu, and he was naturally unhappy.
"Brother Wang, look long, take a closer look and decide that you can't get by." Su Jiu heard this and said lightly.
"Take a closer look?" Being said by Su Jiu, Wang Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses, as a feng shui master in the realm of qi cultivation, his eyesight naturally still exists, in the ancient tomb, under the ever-bright lamp, although it is dim, but it is still possible to see the situation of the main tomb clearly.
Wang Xuan squinted, and then began to look at the main burial chamber.
The main burial chamber is very spacious, in the room a sarcophagus is placed in the center, on both sides of the sarcophagus, there are two stone pillars, take a closer look, just the old-fashioned lighthouse, the stone pillar lighthouse is not high, about one meter high, the lighthouse has no light, obviously it has long been extinguished.
And the ever-bright lamp, just on the wall behind the sarcophagus, hanging, on the wall under the ever-bright lamp, faintly visible, there is a large stone carving.
The pattern of the entire main tomb seems to be very empty, the position where Su Jiu Wang Xuan is standing is a passage leading to the main tomb, on the four walls around, Wang Xuan found that in addition to the stone wall in the direction of the ever-bright lamp There is no passage, there are three passages on both sides of the sarcophagus, and he is facing the sarcophagus, and he is four or five meters away on both sides of the passage, and there is also a passage for each of them.
"Nine passages?" Wang Xuan took a look, looked around, and was puzzled, before he finished speaking, Wang Xuan seemed to have thought of something, the whole person was a spirit, and the scalp suddenly involuntarily haired, like a static electricity, from the scalp, to the whole body, all over the body.
"Brother Su, this can't be ......" Wang Xuan muttered to Su Jiu with some horror.
"What do you say? Why else am I stopping you? Looking at Wang Xuan's frightened expression, Su Jiu couldn't help but ask rhetorically.
"This can't be true, right? I'll go! Wang Xuan saw Su Jiu's expression like this, and his face couldn't help but change drastically, looking at the scene in front of him, it seemed that this main tomb was like hell, as long as he took a step forward, he would step into hell. Frightened, the whole person stood in place, not daring to move.
And Ronnie Chan on the side saw Wang Xuan and Su Jiu's expressions at this moment, and his face was immediately full of doubts, and the whole person was speechless, I don't know what the two of them are talking about?
"Master Su, what's wrong? Can't you go into this main burial chamber? After Wang Xuan discovered the lantern, Ronnie Chan also looked at the lantern with a shocked face, as an archaeological enthusiast, he naturally understood the meaning of the lantern.
In Chinese history, and even in archaeology, there has been a debate about the meaning of the existence of the lantern, and for thousands of years, legends have existed, but in the history of China, until now, there has been no physical object of the lantern as evidence. At present, there is an everlasting lamp in the main tomb here, which has a shocking effect on archaeology and even history, which is known by thinking about it with your toes, if you take this everlasting lamp out, what kind of impact will it have, what kind of shock it will cause.
Thinking of this, Ronnie Chan couldn't help but breathe quickly.
"You really can't just go in casually, this main burial chamber is not so easy to enter! Boss Chen, you'd better not move now, don't move a single step, otherwise it will be very dangerous. Hearing Boss Chen's question, Su Jiu pondered for a moment and said lightly, Su Jiu's eyes kept staring at the front for observation, never left, and didn't even blink.
If Ronnie Chan had noticed, what Su Jiu was observing was not the ever-bright lamp, but the sarcophagus under the ever-bright lamp.
Su Jiu squinted his eyes and kept staring at the sarcophagus, as if he was trying to figure out something.
"Master Su, what do you say?" When Ronnie Chan heard Su Jiu say this, he immediately became puzzled.
The main burial chamber is in front, and the three of them are now standing in front of this Yongdao entrance, and they have all entered the main burial chamber, as long as they go forward, it is the middle of the main burial chamber of the ancient tomb, and there is no obstruction in the middle, and there is no insurmountable ravine, why can't they enter? Ronnie Chan was immediately blindsided by Su Jiu's words.
"Brother Su, what should we do next?" Before Su Jiu could answer Ronnie Chan's question, Wang Xuan on the side came back to his senses at this time and asked directly to Su Jiu.
Su Jiu still didn't reply, and continued to stare ahead.
"Master Wang, do you know?"
Seeing that Su Jiu didn't speak, Ronnie Chen, who was curious, asked Wang Xuan again.
"Boss Chen, do you see the passages around here?" When Wang Xuan heard this, he said to Boss Chen.
"See, nine passages, it's normal! Ordinary tombs, generally speaking, also have several passages, Han formal burials, generally speaking, are seven passages, the higher the specifications of the ancient tomb, the more passages, this is normal, is what Master Su said has something to do with this passage? ”
When Ronnie Chan heard Wang Xuan say this, he immediately looked around, and with the help of the faint light of the ever-bright lamp and the strong light overhead, he found the passage of the stone wall on three sides, and counted it, exactly nine.
As an archaeological enthusiast, I still have a certain amount of research on some ancient tombs in China, and I have a little understanding of the specifications and layout of this ancient tomb, not that I don't know anything. (To be continued.) )
