This group of people usually don't use their real names, they all call each other nicknames, and the one who came is called Big Bald, about thirty-five or six years old, and there is not a single hair on the door of their heads. He is the old guy who has been following the wild fox for the longest time, and now he is doing well, and his figure is a little fat, and he should lose weight if he gets fat.

If you are doing the trick of gold inverted buckets, you can't be too fat, because it is impossible to play a very spacious hole, and most of the tombs have very little space for underground activities. The big bald head has rarely entered the cave in person in recent years, and usually guards the entrance of the cave like today's wild fox and prepares to count the goods that have been successfully counted.

The big bald head is strong but agile, not only brute strength but also skillful, and he is also a native of the folk blasting expert, before following the wild fox to "do business", in a rural stone mine. Today's thief hole was blown up by the big bald head.

This tomb is located more than seven meters deep underground, according to the Ming Dynasty measurement before and after two zhang seven feet long, the direction of the tomb is not due south, but the ground is 120 gold of Kunshan Ding Wei direction (the geomagnetic direction is between 41.5 degrees and 43.5 degrees west-south). The main burial chamber is connected to a short burial hall and is shaped like a large scoop fastened into the ground. The other end opposite the tomb door is the place where the sacrificial case is set up in the yin house, and the "scoop bottom" with the dome is the main burial chamber where the coffin is placed after the sacrificial case.

There are simple ear chambers on both sides of the connection between the short tomb road and the main burial chamber, and there is no passage between the shape and the main burial chamber, that is, two small burial chambers with a depth of one zhang and two feet are built laterally, which is generally where the coffins of burial goods or wives and concubines are placed. This tomb is already quite large, and it is hard to find among the people.

According to the Ming Dynasty burial system, the tomb door has a stone seal and is difficult to open, the top of the tomb is made of white ash mixed with glutinous rice slurry containing cinnabar to build green bricks, see the scale of this tomb blue bricks at least seven vertical and seven horizontal. There are also anti-theft measures outside the tomb, and a layer of fine pebbles the size of walnuts more than a foot thick is laid on the top of the tomb and around it.

This layer of pebbles is much better than the anti-theft effect of quicksand, the sand layer has been buried in the ground for a long time, it will absorb water and decay and become sticky, and gradually lose its flowing surname, while small pebbles will not. Once someone drills a hole through this layer, it is not only difficult to dig but also easy to cause collapse and be buried inside. Pebbles can be found on the local beach, not far from the river, which is both effective and easy, and the owner of the tomb is very clever.

Although these are buried deep in the ground, according to the results of the secret exploration a few days ago, You Fang drew a very clear sketch, indicating how to enter the big bald head as quickly and conveniently as possible, and what is probably in what direction after entering.

If it is a formal archaeological excavation, the general excavator finds the location of the tomb door, and then tries to open the stone seal and enter it, and takes time to clean it slowly and carefully. If it is a robbery with an open fire, then dig deep and do it, and you can use zha medicine when you open it, and you are not afraid of exposure anyway. But it is not possible to steal and excavate without seeing the light, otherwise the things in the tomb will not come out to pick up the guests, and the police will come to arrest people first.

The "construction drawing" drawn by You Fang is to start from five meters behind the tomb, dig down at an angle of 60 degrees, and the length is about 8.6 meters and the depth is about 7.5 meters, and then turn horizontally to just touch the pebble layer. Past the pebble layer is the back wall of the main burial chamber - the weakest point of the Ming Dynasty masonry tomb, which can be accessed by chiseling two or three layers of wall bricks.

According to the direction set by the tour party, it deviates one meter to the left from the center line of the tomb, which can just avoid the coffin parked against the wall, and enter and exit the entire tomb space very calmly.

After nightfall today, he watched the big bald head use the traditional Luoyang shovel to improve the shovel, and from his designated position to dig a slender deep hole with a diameter of about 15 centimeters, just to reach the edge of the pebble layer, and then put **zha medicine into the hole. It is worthy of being a blasting expert, and the control is quite good, there is only a muffled sound of "poof" when it is detonated, and the swimming party ten meters away only feels that the ground trembles slightly.

At that time, a heavy truck was passing by the bumpy part of the road on the national highway in the distance, and there was a boom, and the faint explosion completely covered it and was not easy to detect. You Fang was very surprised, only to see that the high temperature and compressed air blew out a deep hole the size of a horse gourd cover in the ground, just enough to drill into a person.

It's no wonder that many tomb robbery sites are very deep, but there is no bulldozing on the surface.

He had already shoveled up the corn stalks around the entrance of the cave and moved them to the side, and when the smoke cleared, he expanded the entrance of the cave into an inverted cone-shaped flare, and then drilled down with the guys. This was a strange move, and the bald man smiled and explained that it was to cover the hole and restore the surface to its original state.

He was about twenty-seven or eight years old, with thinning hair, a pale face, and a man who didn't talk much, short and thin, but his arms and legs were full of tendon flesh. He also wears a one-piece bodysuit commonly known as a "rat suit", with a variety of pockets and ties on his clothes to carry various tools. He wore a helmet-style miner's lamp on his head and a makeshift gas mask on his face that painters used to spray paint.

Tonight, the big bald head and the decadent son are responsible for taking turns to make holes and transport the things in the tomb, and another member of the gang, Mao Er, is in a light truck in a hidden place next to the national highway, pretending to break down overnight to watch the wind, once he finds that something is wrong on the side of the highway, he will send a signal to remind him in time.

The explosion of the thief hole hit the edge of the pebble layer, and how to deal with it next is also a matter of big bald heads and decadents, those who do this line have their own unique skills, since they are prepared, they should be able to pass through the pebble layer without causing collapse, and the task of the tour party is just to guide the way. When the big bald head took over the resting man into the cave and passed through the pebble layer to the back wall of the main burial chamber, he unexpectedly found a corpse there, so he hurried up to report it.

The discovery of bones outside the coffin of the tomb means one thing - it was once visited by tomb robbers! Either the body of the burial was dragged out by the tomb thief and discarded aside, so that the burial goods in the coffin could be searched; Either the tomb robbers died below because of the collapse of the robbery hole, suffocation, injury, and being plotted by their accomplices.

Hearing the words of the big bald head, the wild fox's face sank and asked, "What age are the traces?" ”

Ancient tomb robbers generally only take gold, silver and jewelry, inconvenient to carry and not easy to exchange for cash, but also easy to expose the origin of large ceramics often do not move, in ancient times there was no Christie's auction house to fry Ming and Qing dynasty porcelain, and there was no Ma Wei in the central station flickering. If it is a modern tomb robber, it is difficult to say, and the wild fox and others are aiming for the ancient porcelain in the tomb.

The big bald head grinned: "There are only bones left, at least it was before the Republic of China, it seems that he was buried by a layer of pebbles, and the tomb was not pierced." …… Almost all of his belongings were rotten, and all that was left was this sword and this jade plaque. As he spoke, he handed over two things.

Hearing this, the wild fox also smiled, took the thing, lit the small flashlight on the brim of his hat and said: "This brand looks like something from the Ming Dynasty, and it is very good!" I believe that it is said to be from the hand of the jade master Lu Zigang, and I will study it well during the day. ”

You Fang also glanced at it, the jade plate was about five centimeters long and three centimeters wide, the white texture was very luster, and the surface under the light was faintly covered with a layer of tender yellow floating light, and the carved patterns were extremely smooth and exquisite.

And that sword is not so much a dagger, connected to the sheath less than a foot long, the scabbard has been decayed and can be vaguely distinguished, the original decoration is very luxurious, but the hilt is very intact, it seems to be gilded, there are two Yangwen seal characters on the sword, the talisman body, You Fang did not recognize it for a while.

The mad fox carefully pulled the sword from its tattered scabbard, the blade intact without a trace of rust, but also without lustre, as if it was wrapped in a hazy gray mist. When it came out of its sheath, you had the illusion that it had heard a squeezing sound, like a clear groan and a cry.

I don't know if the crazy fox heard it, but his face changed, and then he put the sword back into the sheath and said to the big bald head: "You go down to the cave and take a layer of soil from the place, quickly!" ”

The big bald head turned and went into the thief hole, and soon took a pile of earth, mixed with pebbles the size of walnuts, which was the layer of soil that had wrapped the sword in the ground. The fox took out a wooden box from his side like a trick, wrapped the sheathed short sword in a piece of yellow silk, and then buried it in the box with soil.

I only heard the mad fox say with a little pride: "This sword used to be a killing soldier, and it was very spiritual, but it was sealed by Yin Qi for too long. Don't look at it so well preserved, if you take it out like this and be washed by yang energy, it won't be long before it decays. Fortunately, he met me, first sealed it temporarily, and went back to spend a lot of effort to re-raise the blade and open the light to see the sky, and it was still a magic weapon to ward off evil spirits. ”

You Fang was really shocked this time, he didn't expect the wild fox to do this! He had long heard Wu Lao say that an archaeological term is called "time hourglass", many antiquities are well preserved in the unchanging burial environment, and when they were first excavated, they were the same as thousands of years ago, but they quickly oxidized and decayed. It is like the hourglass of time that has stood still for thousands of years, and the moment the antiquities are unearthed, they suddenly and rapidly accelerate the passage of time.

Archaeologists have seen intact fruit on the altar of the ancient underground palace, but once exposed to the modern environment, it immediately turns into scorched earth at a speed visible to the naked eye, which is stunning. So far, scientific and technological means have not been able to completely solve the problem of time hourglass in archaeological excavations, and can only be delayed as much as possible, and some antiquities are well preserved except for the material reasons, which are often due to various coincidences that are difficult to explain.

Crazy Fox obviously saw that this ancient sword might decay quickly after it was unearthed, and immediately sealed it, listening to his tone, there was still a way to keep it as good as new. You Fang asked curiously: "Master Fox, what's going on with the Yin Qi Seal?" What is the doorway to re-raise the blade and open the light? ”

The mad fox didn't answer, and said in a show-off tone: "My hand is not easy to use for everything, only an ancient weapon with a spirit surname is good." ”

The big bald head took off his gloves and helmet-type miner's lamp, scratched the back of his head and smiled at You Fang: "This is our boss's secret that is not passed on, I have been with the boss for ten years, and I haven't learned it." ”

The big bald head has a pig's kidney face, and when he smiles, there are crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, just like an honest and honest farmer, who looks harmless to humans and animals. But You Fang knows very well that the big bald head is the most vicious one in this gang, and there has been more than one guy who has gone out of his way and a "traitor" who has hooked up with outsiders and disappeared in his hands, leaving no trace at all.

This unique skill of the wild fox is very valuable, and if Mr. Wu learns about it, he will definitely learn and ask for advice at any cost, because it is a way to protect historical heritage.

Thinking of Wu Lao, You Fang was speechless for a while, and the atmosphere was a little silent. The wild fox turned his head and talked about the topic just now: "There are tomb owners buried in this underground, as well as ancient counterparts of unknown ages, according to Mr. You's view, the topography of today's mountains and rivers is different from that of ancient times. According to the current feng shui bureau, what is the point of being buried here? ”

You Fang replied without raising his head: "Cut off the children and grandchildren." ”

The wild fox sighed: "So dangerous? So the feng shui master who lit the cave for this tomb owner five hundred years ago didn't see the changes five hundred years later? ”

You Fang shook his head and said: "Looking at the topography of mountains and rivers five hundred years later, it is much more difficult than looking at the feng shui bureau five hundred years ago, after all, the past has happened and will not change, but the future is quite variable." At the time of burial, the number of feng shui fortunes was the most important, and after the reincarnation of the Yuan Yun in 180 years, the influence of the ancient tomb on future generations was already very weak. …… In fact, at the end of the day, this is all. ”

The big bald head interjected on the side: "Even if it's, the owner of this tomb is depressed enough, and after five hundred years, he was cut off by Mr. You for such a feng shui bureau." ”

You Fang: "Today's burial is in line with this situation, and it has little to do with the owner of the tomb five hundred years ago." Even if there is a relationship, it is estimated that the owner of the tomb will not care, don't forget who he is, he is a eunuch! ”

The big bald head patted his head: "Mr. You didn't mention it, I almost forgot, we dug a eunuch's grave today, and we are still a big eunuch!" ”

Who is the owner of this large tomb underground? To be honest, You Fang didn't know, he just designed to lure the crazy fox and others to take the bait, and happened to find an ancient tomb here. If the "historical data" he fabricated is true, then this tomb can be said to be a major discovery in the history of Chinese porcelain, because the name planted by You Fang to the owner of the tomb is - Zhu Yuanzuo!

The history of Chinese eunuchs has been thousands of years, but the power and influence of eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty reached its peak, unlike the Qing Dynasty, the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty were famous for interfering in court politics, and the scope of activities was not limited to the palace and the capital, and they were also sent to various places to serve as town envoys, supervisors, etc., to control the military and political power of one side, and to supervise local officials.

From the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the royal family opened an official kiln in Jingdezhen, specializing in firing imperial palace porcelain. Since the Yongle era of the Ming Dynasty, the pottery supervisor responsible for the firing of the official kiln in Jingdezhen has been served by eunuchs. Eunuch interference was a major cancer in the politics of the Ming Dynasty, and there were many corrupt and cruel eunuchs in the successive governors, but there were also people who did quite a lot during their tenure.

During the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty, Jingdezhen official kiln porcelain ushered in a historical peak in terms of craftsmanship and artistic level, and a large number of fine products emerged to be famous all over the world. Not only are there historical materials, but also the "Tao Ya" written by the Qing Dynasty people who specializes in porcelain science also has a special description, and the evaluation of Zhu Yuanzuo is quite high.

The above can be clearly verified, but there are also "legends" that are not recorded in official historical materials, such as where is Zhu Yuanzuo from? Where are you buried after death? In what format is it buried? It is said that Zhu Yuanzuo is a person from Wangwei Village, Hebei, and the nearest village to this place was called Wangwei Village in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzuo made porcelain and became famous at home, won the commendation of the emperors of the two dynasties, died of illness in his later years on the way back to Beijing to report on his work, just near his hometown, Hongzhi Emperor grace his hometown to return to his hometown for burial. These so-called "historical materials" are all compiled by You Fang, but what they say has a nose and eyes, and they are not entirely false. There is indeed Zhu Yuanzuo in history, and the nearest village is indeed an ancient and famous micro village.

Modern people engage in research, the most headache is in the face of a sea of information, but now there is a very convenient means of science and technology is to search on the Internet, maybe in which corner of the network can find this inconspicuous clue. Crazy Fox also searched the Internet and found that many historical materials and folklore that introduce ancient ceramics and officials have clues of a few words, which are completely consistent with what You Fang said.

Some of the information is readily available on the Internet, and some of the information is posted bits and pieces on the Internet under various pseudonyms after spending two months on the Internet, for fear that the wild fox will not search for it. In fact, the wild fox and You Fang were also hooked up in a forum to discuss feng shui and local legends, and they seemed to meet by chance, but they didn't know that You Fang had already planned it.

Times are different, and even tomb robbers have stepped on the Internet!

When they arrived near Wangwei Village, after half a month of field investigation, You Fang and others really found a deep tomb in this cornfield, looking at the specifications of this tomb and the depth of burial, the contents are definitely valuable.

The big bald head muttered: "How did the eunuch come here, it is more than 200 miles away from the capital." ”

Crazy Fox said: "What's this, in 2003, Chengdu also found nine Ming Dynasty eunuch tombs, the scale is not small, and no one has entered the No. 3 tomb, it is said that more than a dozen pieces of ancient porcelain inside are very intact, the most beautiful is a 47 cm high Jiajing blue and white porcelain jar, as well as three authentic Xuande copper furnaces. …… Alas, I just got the news too late! …… The eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty ran all over the place, there were many rich and powerful, wasn't Zheng He a eunuch? I also went to the West! ”

The big bald head flattered: "The boss doesn't have to sigh, we haven't caught up with the business in Chengdu, won't the work here be made up?" That eunuch Zhu made porcelain during his lifetime, and he built such a big tomb, do you still need to think about anything in it! ”

You Fang nodded and said: "Of course, Zhu Yuanzuo's most proud life is to make porcelain, and the burial in the tomb can be imagined." In ancient times, many eunuchs were illiterate, but this great eunuch Zhu was very educated, and he also had a poem about porcelain burning-

The potter came to the ceremony, and Dalin looked around a column.

Zhumen is close to Qianfeng, and Danque is far away from Wanlideng.

The spring brocade column of Chicheng rises in the sun, and it is said that the purple sea is bright.

The four rich flames are day and night, who knows the courtiers to read Li Bing. ……”

You Fang chanted poetry softly in the night breeze, and the big bald head shivered inexplicably: "Mr. You, don't read it, why do I feel hairy in my heart?" ”

You Fang asked rhetorically: "I've done this business, and my guts are still so small?" ”

The big bald head smiled embarrassedly: "It's been more than ten years, I've heard all kinds of sounds when I robbed the tomb, and I'm not afraid of anything except the siren now, but I've never heard anyone reciting poetry outside the mouth of the cave, which feels weird." ”

At this moment, the detractor came out from two meters away, turned off the miner's lamp and said in a low voice: "It's penetrated, Mr. You pointed to the right position, I glanced at it, there are a lot of things in it, this time it can be sent!" ”

The wild fox's face was solemn, his eyes were very excited, and he waved his hand: "Hurry up and vent your yin qi, go down and touch things in fifteen minutes, and move smartly!" ”

After the tomb chamber, which had been isolated from the outside world for thousands of years, was opened, tomb robbers generally did not enter immediately, and the inside may be deprived of oxygen or filled with toxic gases, allowing the internal and external air to circulate and deflect yin. Crazy Fox and others brought a simple blast equipment, that is, a folding air bag connected to a long pipe into the tomb, constantly opening and retracting the air bag to expel the air in the tomb from the thief hole, which can save time.

Fifteen minutes later, the big bald head and the declining son went down one after another, and the wild fox was very interested, like a general who patrolled the battlefield after winning a battle, and looked around and said: "Since ancient times, feng shui has talked about earth qi, and this thing is really wonderful, and the tomb is buried so deep that it can still affect the growth of corn on the surface." ”

This corn field looks lush, but the corn within about three meters directly above the tomb does not grow as well as other places, the heading is short, the fruit is not full enough, and the distribution of the difference is very regular, confined to such a circle, and the further you go to the center, the more obvious it is.

This subtle difference is not noticeable from standing in place, and even the farmers who cultivate the land can hardly notice that there are some buds of rice, straw, and corn leaves at the feet of the wild fox and You Fang, which they have picked from the nearby fields after observing the anomaly in the distant high ground.

You Fang explained: "There is an archaeological term called 'rice remains', which is about this phenomenon, which was discovered by a foreign devil hundreds of years ago, when he used it to explore the distribution of the remains of ancient Roman ports, and it is said that the effect of observation is most obvious when it is observed with grown corn. "These are all the knowledge that Mr. Wu once introduced to You Fang, and they are being used at this moment.

The wild fox said in a mocking tone: "What kind of foreign devil discovery, our ancestors in this line will have been a thousand years ago, Mr. You, although you are proficient in feng shui, you still have to learn a little bit of eyesight in this area." Since ancient times, we have been looking for the relics of the Yin House, and paying attention to 'watching the green seedlings in spring, listening to thunder in summer, and observing dry water in autumn and enjoying snow in winter'. …… If you look at the vegetation, you don't need to look at the corn after it grows, no matter what kind of field, the spring time when the green seedlings germinate is the best time to test the ground, haven't you heard of these? ”

You Fang had to admire: "Master Fox is a big expert, I have to learn more from you in the future." ”

Crazy Fox is a very calm person, but sometimes he likes to show off and like to listen to people's praise, so he immediately nodded and said: "Let's learn from each other, don't always hide your feng shui secrets, what you have with me is good." …… Although Mr. Palm Eye generally doesn't need to go down to the hole, it's best to practice courage and insight, or go down and have a look today? …… It's okay, isn't it just a dead person, there's nothing to be afraid of! ”

The entrance to the cave was only more than two meters away from their foothold, and it was almost invisible at night without careful observation, and the wild fox had already walked to the entrance of the cave as he spoke, and his body turned his back to Youfang. - This is a God-given opportunity, if you don't do it at this time, I'm afraid you won't be able to wait for such a good opportunity anymore!

Crazy Fox has not only practiced martial arts but also killed people with his own hands, not an ordinary little thief, this kind of person not only reacts quickly but also has very sharp intuition. When he spoke, his heart tightened inexplicably, and he felt that the You Fang behind him was a little too quiet, and there seemed to be a dangerous breath in the wind, so he immediately turned around on the spot.

I continue asking for collection, recommendation!
