Chapter 20: The Burial Pit
Chapter 20 The Burial Pit Panzi said, "Are you all ready?" Let's go. Sanshui said, "Go, go."
โ
We began to walk towards the center of the burial chamber, which was so large that the light could only shine around us, and it was pitch black in the distance.
I looked and saw that the floor was paved with smooth stone slabs, which were broken in places.
And there are weeds, and the grass is all calf high.
The ventilation should be good here, and I guess the remains of the bones will be seen.
The fat man suddenly said: "
Oops, something bites my foot, come and save me.
"I was a little away from the fat man, and I couldn't see what was going on, so I ran over.
I went to him and said,
As for your stinky feet, who is rare, and don't bloody corpses smoke away?
"I saw that the fat man's feet were caught by the mouth of a sheep's head.
I said, "
The fat man really has nothing to do, this sheep's head scares you like this.
The fat man said, "
The light was so dim that I knew it was a sheep's head that caught my feet.
I said, "You don't know what you want to do when you step on it."
โ
The fat man said, "There's only one sheep's head here, and nothing else."
โ
I looked around and saw that there was only this sheep's head.
Xiao Liu ran over and looked at it and said, "
It's no fuss, everyone has seen jackals, ants and snakes before, maybe they have eaten them, or they are sacrifices.
The fat man said, "
I feel like there's some point in that, you can't see it.
"I thought it might mean, but I couldn't figure it out.
I asked the fat man: "
What do you see?
The fat man said, "
I don't see the meaning of this for the time being, but there is definitely an article here.
At this time, Sanshui and Panzi came over, and Panzi said: "
Gone, gone.
"We didn't study the sheep's head anymore and moved on.
After walking for a while, due to the poor light, we only saw these things visually in the burial chamber, and there were three major burial pits in total, one was a livestock burial pit, one was a terracotta pit, and one was a ceremonial pit.
We are standing on the left side of the burial pit, and to the left is the livestock burial pit.
A large number of livestock remains are neatly arranged in the pit, the pit on the left is relatively shallow, the length of the pit is not visible to the eye, a large number of pigs, cattle and sheep and other livestock carcasses are piled up, and there is no other useful thing to see.
The fat man said: "
You see, let me say it, all but the corpses here are skeletons.
I nodded and said, "
Well, there are two more burial pits, look at those two.
"When we came to the pit in the middle, we saw that in the burial pit were a large number of figurines of ceremonial music, all of which were carved in stone.
The fat man said: "
Bringing these figurines to the museum is definitely a major discovery, and it also adds another subject to the archaeological community.
Professor Su said: "
Well, these are definitely major discoveries if they are put in the museum, but from the perspective of respecting history, it is better to seal the ancient tombs underground, we are professional senior thieves, and there are certain rules.
"The whole figurines pit is also a neat and neat stone carving of the figurines.
These figurines come in a variety of forms, some holding pipa and some holding wind instruments.
One of the figurines holds a bronze rod in his hand, and next to it are rows of bells, large and small, arranged in order.
Both the chimes and the tripod are national symbols, and the chimes symbolize the status of the king of the country in the form of a musical instrument.
The fat man said: "
Come and see, it's a lot more interesting than corpses.
"That is, this kind of musical instrument is not only liked by the common people, but also by experts, and corpses are only liked by medical and biological people, and ordinary people will not like it.
โ
I chimed in.
Professor Su said: "Well, the value of this kind of thing is greater than the value of the corpse, but the value of the corpse is also a point, a point of opening.
โ
"This is the largest burial chamber I've ever seen, and it's the largest figurine pit I've ever seen, and that's a big discovery," Bob said.
Alice came over and said, "
You're going to talk and talk, and you're going to see what they're doing.
"Listening to Alice, I saw that Panzi Sanshui and most of the men had gone to the pit on the right, and only a few little followers were here.
I looked at the fat man: "
Let's go, let's see.
The fat man agreed, and we were all crammed into the pit on the right.
The terracotta pit on the right is deeper, wider and larger than the pit on both the left and right.
The three pits are particularly long-lasting.
It is rare for such three pits to exist in such a large burial chamber.
I don't know if I'll ever see this again, but it's the first time I've seen it.
These terracotta warriors are half a head taller than me, and the horses here are bigger than the ones we see in real life.
Some of the warriors carry any kind of weapons, some with swords, some with spears, some with go, and some with stalks.
Seven rows were divided longitudinally, with infantry in front and cavalry in the rear.
Among them, there was a square formation not far apart, and the tall terracotta warriors stood in the middle as if they were the commander or the general.
At the end of the flashlight, a cavalryman was found to be much taller than the other generals and knights, about three meters tall.
The horses of the huge cavalry were more powerful and thicker than the other horses.
The armor of the knight was even more different.
Shoulder armor, helmets, combat boots, and cuirasses are all decorated with carved patterns, which are difficult to see because of the distance.
I said, "
Fatty, Professor Su, did you see that terracotta warrior?
I snapped my finger.
Professor Su looked at it and said, "
Oh, how can there be such a tall terracotta, go, go and see.
The fat man said, "
It can't be a general.
I said, "
It must be, the people who generally stand in the center are generally key figures, and this one is so tall that he should still stand in the army.
"When Bob saw that we were going there, he also ran with us to watch, and the whole terracotta pit gave people a shock, a kind of deterrent, and made people awe.
Sanshui and Panzi sat on the edge of the pit and didn't know what to talk about.
The others sat and sat and looked at the terracotta warriors, as if there was a sense of leisure.
I don't know what will happen in the next second, and I feel that everyone is very proud, so there are some disadvantages to the inverted bucket.
Thinking of this, I said, "
Go and see it first, and I'll go in a moment.
I walked up to Panzi and said, "
This cemetery is so big, everyone doesn't know what danger there is, now they are resting and chattering, very lazy, there should be two or three people to stay vigilant, so that everyone will not be caught off guard if there is danger.
After hearing this, Panzi said: "
Well, you're right.
"I saw Pan Zi walk to Sanshui's side, and then said a few words, and two people came out of the people who came with me, and two people came out to the outer edge of the three pits dozens of meters, and a few people from Sanshui's group also came out to guard.
It seems that what I said worked.
At this time, Alice came over and said: "
Xiao Wu, the first time I came to the tomb in China, I found so many strange things, benefiting from the non-line, I don't know how you feel.
โ
I ignored her for a second and said, "I'm going over there to have a look, are you going?"
โ
Alice ignored me, as if angry.
After I finished speaking, I ran to see the huge terracotta warriors, and when I arrived, I saw Professor Su arguing with Bob and the fat man.
Professor Su said: "This general must be a very productive person, huh.
โ
The fat man said: "This must be related to the empty coffin in the middle building before, and the owner of the empty coffin is him, the empty jade coffin."
โ
As soon as I heard the fat man say, I thought of what happened before, the kind of bat that is not afraid of death, and now I feel uncomfortable thinking about it.
Bob said: "This giant terracotta has nothing to do with them, this should be the head of the management of these armies, and he should be the owner of the entire tomb."
โ
Professor Su said: "He is the general who manages these armies, or the number one general of the Bashu Kingdom.
โ
The fat man said: "He has something to do with the empty jade coffin just now, and he is the owner of the empty coffin."
โ
The three of them were arguing and arguing like that, and I was amused by them.
I said, "Hey, it's okay to hear me say a few words."
โ
As if they hadn't heard, the three of them continued to argue.
I didn't even say a word, and they ignored me.
Finally, I said, "Ladies and gentlemen, can you stop arguing.
โ
The fat man heard it and replied to me: "
We are not great gods, we are ordinary people.
I said, "Fatty, you're still arguing."
โ
The fat man said, "Ah, well, don't talk about it."
โ
The fat man stopped talking, no matter how I greeted him, this fat man ยทยทยทยทยท.
I said, "Fatty, isn't it okay for me to compensate you?"
Yes?
Okay?
โ
The fat man said, "Forget it, let's talk about this terracotta warrior."
โ
As soon as I heard it, I could tell that this fat man was doing it on purpose, so I was annoyed.
I said, "Are you fooling me?"
โ
The fat man smiled and said, "If you don't play or be lively, if you keep being nervous underground, you won't be a nervous disorder when you come out."
โ
I said, "
You're a psychopath.
"The four of us gathered in front of the huge terracotta warriors, the terracotta warriors are more than three meters high, the terracotta warriors hold a halberd in their hands, the halberd is standing on the ground by him, this halberd is five meters long, the copper handle is as thick as a person's calf, and this halberd is made of pure bronze, look like this is not less than a thousand catties.
The Terracotta Warriors hold a bronze halberd in their left hand, and pull the reins of the horse in their right hand, and the horse next to them is taller than a camel, and it is almost the same if it is not a few thousand catties, and the Terracotta Warriors have a two-meter-long bronze sword pinned to their waists.
On the whole, it seems that the god of war is in the lower realm, and the gods of heaven come to the world, as if the gods of heaven are leading the heavenly soldiers and generals to prepare for the big war.
I said, "
As for you, don't argue, this person must have something to do with the owner of the tomb, but he is not the owner of the tomb, and he was also a famous figure during his lifetime.
"The three of them listened to what I said and reasoned and didn't argue anymore.
โ
I said, "This terracotta is the biggest tomb I've ever seen, mainly because his weapon is too big and too heavy."
โ
The fat man said: "Well, his weapon plus his height and his war horse are simply against the sky."
โ
Xiao Liu said: "A few bosses, is that big stone man real?"
Is it so tall for a real person?
โ
Frank said, "No way, that there are people who are that tall."
โ
The fat man said: "The world is so big, there are no surprises, he is the miracle, this person, he must have been so tall in his lifetime, including the war horses, the weapons are all built in the original size, the original model."
โ
Bob said, "It doesn't matter how tall the real person is, can you take it?"
However, there have been giants on Earth.
โ
The two stopped talking.
Walking out of the grave, the three of them still argued in a whisper, but there was little movement.
