Chapter XXVIII
Lao Hu sighed, a smile appeared on his face again, filled the wine glass for me, and said earnestly: "Brother, we are already a lifelong friendship, brother, I won't say kind words." We also want to make a different living, but you know, we don't have any other craft, and our shop sells fakes, so how can there be so many fools to let us cheat. So if you don't go to rob the tomb, the brothers will really starve to death. ”
Seeing him say this, I can't persuade anymore, after all, we are just friends, and we can't impose our attitude towards life.
Lao Hu followed me: "Brother, my brothers don't treat you as an outsider, the few people sitting here are their own brothers, today we originally had something to discuss with you, I hope my brothers don't see you outside." "Brother Hu has something to say, as long as he can use my place, I will not refuse." I've long seen that they have something to say, and they may not have found a chance to do so. But looking at their appearance, it is very likely that it is the idea of someone's ancestor again.
Lao Hu was very happy, took out a pack of Chinese cigarettes and distributed them to everyone, and then he patted me on the shoulder, turned his head and said to the big guy: "Look, my brother is about righteousness, and you all will learn a little bit in the future." ”
As soon as I heard this, I knew that he was deliberately elevating me, trying to make it difficult for me to refuse in the future.
After taking the cigarette, Lao Hu took out a lighter and specially helped me light it, and it took a long time to pick up the "one~" read the novel xstxt and said: "I want to touch a big tomb, if I touch a few brothers, I can wash my hands and be a new person, I don't know if my brother can help my brother and take us out of the sea of suffering?" ”
Sure enough, as I expected, this master couldn't say anything other than talking about digging up other people's ancestors. It's just that he wants me to help rob the tomb, so he will rob the tomb, and he has to do the same thing as doing good deeds, and get out of the sea of suffering, maybe he will pull me into the sea of suffering.
I didn't answer them immediately, but looked at the other two, only to find that they were both staring at me, and it was clear that the three of them had already planned to dig up whose ancestors, and now they were waiting for me to nod and start digging.
To be honest, I don't want to agree to this, you must know that digging someone's grave is a thing that damages yin morality, although it is impossible to say that the son born in the future will have no asshole, but it is very likely that he will be retributed sooner or later in the future. And I was already guilty of a lack of life, and I had to do good deeds to accumulate virtue, so that I could escape the catastrophe in a year, and pulling me to do this kind of tomb robbery with them would really cost me my life.
But seeing everyone's expectant expressions, and the fact that I am extremely young, I feel that if I should not be under them, I feel that it is too unrighteous, so I have to nod and agree to them.
I also have my own considerations, one is that everyone is a brother who has changed their lives, and I can't refute everyone's face; The second is that even if I go to rob the tomb together, it is better than the three of them going alone, after all, with me, I may be able to help them, save some danger, and then I can persuade them to take one or two valuable things and accept them when they see it, don't play too much and cause too much damage.
When everyone saw that I agreed, the three of them immediately smiled happily, and the fat man stood up and asked the waiter outside the private room for another bottle of liquor, which directly made me dumbfounded. The bottle cap was opened, and a bottle of liquor was evenly distributed to the four of them, and they pushed the cup and drank it.
Just when the four of them were almost drunk, the meal was over. When they returned to the store that night, the three of them got together and began to plan.
To be honest, when I heard Lao Hu tell the owner of the tomb he had chosen, I was stunned. I thought that they must have drunk too much, or they were just crazy, and they were going to rob Cao Cao's tomb
Who is Cao Cao, he is a tomb robber and his ancestor. First of all, Cao Cao was a tomb robber, and Chen Lin wrote an essay when Yuan Shao attacked Cao Cao: "King Liang Xiao, the mother and brother of the first emperor, the tomb is respectful, and the pine and cypress are still respectful." The generals and soldiers came to excavate in person, broke the coffin and naked corpse, and so far the holy court has shed tears, and the people are sad. He also sent a lieutenant general and touched the whole lieutenant, and all the wreckage was exposed."
Historical records record that Cao Cao had set up dozens of "Faqiu Zhonglang Generals" and "Touching Gold School Captains" to dig up tombs all over the world. There are not a few princes and princes in the past dynasties who robbed tombs, such as Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, and Liu Quji, the king of Guangchuan in the Han Dynasty, but like Cao Cao, who specially set up institutions and official positions to dig tombs and pan for gold, they are unprecedented.
Thinking that Lao Hu and the others were going to dig the graves of their ancestors in their own business, I felt that I was instantly overturned by their feats.
Cao Cao is such a tomb robber maniac in Chinese history, can his tomb be easily stolen? You must know that he is suspicious by nature, in order to lie and deceive the world, in order to seek peace underground, he also set up seventy-two suspicious graves to prevent future generations from robbing tombs. There is a legend that Cao Cao made careful arrangements before his death in order to prevent future generations from digging his grave, and on the day of the funeral, all the gates in Yecheng were opened at the same time, and seventy-two coffins were carried out from the four directions of south, east, west and northwest at the same time, and buried in the pre-prepared tomb. As a result, future generations can no longer tell which one is Cao Cao's real tomb and which one is a doubtful tomb that confuses people.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Lao Hu and the three of them were really crazy, but I didn't want to say more, I wanted to let them go. Anyway, Cao Cao's tomb is not so easy to find, and no one has been able to find his tomb for two thousand years, so it is better for them to use this matter to pass some time, so as not to have to focus on other people's ancestors.
Although I participated in the conspiracy that night, it may have been because I drank too much, and I woke up the next day and didn't remember anything, except that they said that they would start to leave for Handan in two days.
To be honest, I am not optimistic about this tomb robbery trip, for thousands of years, there have been many people who want to rob Cao Cao's tomb, and I have not heard of anyone who can find it. So, I didn't take this mission seriously at all, and thought that it would be a sightseeing tour.
However, I also have doubts, because I once read the newspaper that Cao Cao's ancient tomb has been excavated. But Lao Hu and the others insisted that it was just a doubtful tomb, not a real Cao Cao tomb.
I was surprised at the time, so many experts decided that it was Cao Cao's tomb, and it was impossible to look away. But Lao Hu patted me on the shoulder: "Don't believe it? If you don't believe me, I'll show you the tombs they excavated, and you'll agree with what I said. ”
Afterwards, Lao Hu and Fat Man went out and began to prepare all kinds of equipment, leaving me alone in the store to panic.
The next day, we stepped on the departure train and headed straight to Gaoyang Gaoling. It is located in the south of Xigaoxue Village, Anfeng Township, Anyang City, Henan Province, and has been recognized by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage as Cao Cao's tomb, and the reason why Lao Hu took me there is mainly to let me see if the real Cao Cao tomb excavated there.
Cao Cao's Mausoleum is a large brick tomb with many burial chambers. The plane of the tomb is in the shape of a zigzag, the tomb sits west to east, and the total length of the tomb is nearly 60 meters. The plane of the tomb chamber is a trapezoidal shape that is wide in the front and narrow in the back, and is composed of a tomb road, a tomb door, a sealing wall, a road, a main chamber before and after the front and back and four side chambers, with a complex structure and a grand scale.
However, when I went to the local area, I immediately understood what Lao Hu said that this is probably not the real tomb of Cao Cao, because the flaw is in Feng Shui.
Because the ancient Chinese people were very particular about the choice of tomb sites, people with power, money and status, who died and hoped to be buried in the "Feng Shui Treasure Land", especially emperor-level figures, and also required that the burial place was a "dragon vein", so before breaking the ground and building a tomb, they would send a feng shui master to go out to Xiangdi, that is, the so-called "dragon point point". Although feng shui cause and effect is a nihilistic thing, even ordinary people should ask Mr. Yin and Yang to occupy it before being buried, and it is still the case so far, hoping to find an auspicious land that can prosper their children and grandchildren, and no matter how bad it is, it cannot be buried on the murderous ground.
And overlooking the so-called "Cao Cao Tomb" in Gaoling, the excavation site, there is no place to look at it, and the feng shui can be described as mediocre. Cao Cao at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty was not an emperor, but he was more emperor than the emperor, and his cemetery could not have been hastily selected after his death, so it must not be like this in feng shui.
From the historical records of Cao Cao's burial, it can also be inferred that the Cao family attached great importance to feng shui and divination. After Cao Cao's coffin was escorted from Luoyang City to Yecheng by Sima Yi's ministers, he was buried on the agenda. At that time, the Cao family invited a warlock to perform divination and calculate the specific burial date in order to be auspicious. This is the so-called "If you can't get the real dragon, you should also be rich and rich."
When Cao Cao was buried, Cao Pi's "Emperor Wu's Mourning Text" described the whole funeral process in detail. The text also revealed a secret of divination: "Divination and burial are both from and from the tunnel." That is, after the feng shui master (sorcerer) calculated the divination on the spot, he chose the time and said that he could be buried, and then opened the hole leading to the tomb. It can be seen that the Cao family not only chose an auspicious day when Cao Cao was buried, but also chose a good day. Let me ask, will the Cao family, who is so superstitious in feng shui, choose an ordinary place?
And it is recorded in the history books that Cao Cao is also well versed in the way of feng shui, so when choosing his own burial place, he requires "because of the high as the base", secondly, a good cemetery should be open, the situation is vast, the back is relied on, there is a court case in the face, and enough space should be left for the burial tombs of heroes and relatives, and the entrance of the hall should not be narrow, so Cao Cao asked for "wide Zhaoyu".
From the point of view on the ground, the so-called "Cao Cao's Tomb" in Anyang does not show any feng shui momentum: "because of the high base" is not obvious, and "Guangwei Zhaoyu" is not; The water of the Zhanghe River, but it is too close to the Zhanghe River. Even the general feng shui requirements of "there is a front to rely on, there is a photo behind", "back to the mountain, facing the flat river" requirements, and the "dragon" and "sand" that feng shui treasures must have are nowhere to be seen, so it is really likely that this place is a fake tomb, the purpose is to confuse everyone, which is also in line with Cao Cao's treacherous style.
After deducing that the "Cao Cao Tomb" in Anyang, Henan Province was not the real Cao Cao Tomb, we set off again for Handan, Hebei. Because the fat man said that through his years of research and research, the tomb is ** in Yecheng.
