Chapter 102: A full set of guys
Zhao Zimeng squatted on the floor and looked, the green bricks were five centimeters below the floor, and the height of the horizontal wood was about five centimeters - the horizontal wood fell on the floor tiles. The floor is fastened to the crossbar with iron nails.
Except for Zhao Zimeng, Ling Hu Yunfei and Xiang Daimo, everyone else retreated into the courtyard.
Half an hour later, a floor tile with an area of about 10 square meters appeared in front of several people's eyes.
"Rao glance, do you still have to pry the floor again?"
"No more prying, there is a plank under the floor tiles, and there is a pit under the plank."
The four men lifted the bricks and threw them onto the floor next to them.
Underneath the green bricks are wooden planks.
The four men cleaned all the green bricks from the plank, and when they lifted the first plank, they saw several horizontal logs, and under the planks and crosswoods was a deep pit.
There are a dozen planks under the green bricks.
When all the planks were removed, a pit with a length of 3.5 meters and a width of 3 meters appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
The first thing you see is a few beds of cotton tires.
Zhao Zimeng lifted a cotton tire, and the four of them were stunned.
Professor Jin, Professor Nie and Professor Wang also saw it, and they were standing outside the window, which was open.
Zhao Zimeng nodded at Ling Hu Yunfei.
Ling Hu Yunfei walked out of the room.
After a while, Ling Hu Yunfei and Lin Di led Professor Jin, Professor Nie, Professor Wang, Director Zhang, Section Chief Wen and Dean Zuo to the edge of the pit.
Lin Di, Professor Nie, Section Chief Wen, and Dean Zuo took the camera from their necks, and with a "click" sound, the four flashes flashed rapidly.
Except for the light of the flash, everyone's eyes were shining.
At this time. Ma Jianping and Lu Qian had already removed all the cotton tires covering the bronzes.
There are three rows of bronzes, and some straw and cotton tires are stuffed between the bronzes.
When picking up the last cotton tire, Ma Jianping suddenly said loudly, and the tone of his voice changed: "Team Zhao, look-"
Lu Qian and Ma Jianping took up a few things from the corners of the pit one by one.
Several of the people who took the picture stopped taking pictures.
Zhao Zimeng and Ling Hu Yunfei's eyes were focused on this thing.
It was a complete surprise to see these things.
Lu Qian placed a few things on the floor next to him one by one.
Lin Di, Professor Nie, Section Chief Wen, and Dean Zuo were stunned for a moment, and then pointed the lens of the camera at these things.
These things are:
Two Luoyang shovels, in addition to the shovel body, each Luoyang shovel also has six shovel handles - the shovel handle is made of iron, each shovel handle is about 1.5 meters long, and the shovel body is about 80 centimeters long. The six-section shovel handle is screwed together, and with the shovel body, the length is almost ten meters. Such a long Luoyang shovel is suitable for ancient tombs of different depths.
Zhao Zimeng picked up the shovel and tried the curved shovel with his fingers, it was very sharp, no wonder it could probe deep under the soil.
Probably due to the fact that it has not been used for a while, the shovel body and shovel mouth are a little rusty.
The second thing is two miniature pickaxes, the pickaxe head is one-third shorter than the ordinary pickaxe, and the handle is only half the size of the ordinary pickaxe, one is pointed, and the other is flat, the flat head part is wider than the ordinary pickaxe, and it is also sharper than the ordinary pickaxe.
This is an important digging tool, and the pickaxe must be sharper, because the space inside the robbery hole is limited, so only this miniature and special pickaxe can wield it freely.
The third thing was two cloth pockets made of sacks, with ropes tied to the four corners of the cloth bags, and the four ropes were fixed together with a total rope at about fifty centimeters. The length of the total rope is about ten meters.
Obviously, the cloth bag is used to carry the soil, and it is this kind of cloth bag that transports the soil in the thief hole out of the thief hole.
The fourth thing is a rope ladder more than ten meters long. Some thieves are straight up and down, and this kind of rope ladder is necessary to enter and exit the robbery hole.
The rope ladder has been around for some years, and there are many knots and auxiliary ropes on the rope in addition to the hairy head.
The rope ladder is about 40 centimeters wide, and every 60 centimeters or so, there is a rope connected to two main ropes, and this horizontal rope is fixed to a stick about 40 centimeters long.
The fifth thing was three 1.5 m long steel drills, one of which had a rope tied to it.
"What are these three steel drills for?" Zhao Zimeng said.
"These three steel drills are placed above the entrance of the thief hole to make a triangular support, and the soil under the thief hole can only be pulled up with a pulley; After entering the tomb, they can pry the door stone and coffin. โ
Do a triangular bracket? It is no wonder that a rope is tied to one of the steel drills, which is used to fix the three steel drills, and the tips of the three steel drills are inserted into the soil to ensure the stability of the triangular bracket.
The tomb robbers have a lot of food for them!
The sixth thing is a pulley with a diameter of about 20 centimeters. A thicker wire is fixed on the pulley.
The seventh thing is a short-handled shovel, which is used to pluck the soil. The shovel head is slightly smaller than the ordinary shovel head, and the shovel handle is only about 60 centimeters long.
The eighth thing is three special horse lanterns, Zhao Zimeng and Ling Hu Yunfei were at the scene of the crime, and they had seen the same horse lantern above the entrance of the robbery cave, and the horse lantern was left at the scene of the crime because the glass cover was broken.
The last thing was a black compass about twenty-five centimeters in diameterโthe compass was placed in a cloth pocket.
This compass is supposed to be used to determine the feng shui of the ancient tomb, the location of the tomb chamber and the direction of the tomb road.
The above nine things are indispensable tools for tomb robbing.
"Whose are these things?"
"It's Rao Zhilong, Rao Zhiyun, Jie Wenjiang and Li Dasen. Originally, I planned to throw these things in the tomb, but Jie Wenjiang said that they would be used in the future, so I hid them here. โ
"In addition to the Ion Mountain Late Ming Dynasty Ancient Tomb, have you also stolen other ancient tombs?"
"We've robbed a few ancient tombs. But it's all petty fighting, and there are very few things in the ancient tomb. โ
"Where are these tombs?"
"One is in Yinniu Mountain, one is in Lion's Head Mountain, and one is in Lingshan. Our main purpose is to excavate the ancient tomb of Ion Mountain, but we must wait for the people from Huaigu Village to move out. Rao Zhilong: They are people who can't be idle, and if they don't dig graves, they will be uncomfortable. โ
No wonder Rao Zhilong, who lives in Qiyunguan, often goes out day and night.
"Is everything in the Late Ming Ancient Tomb of Ion Mountain here?"
"It's all here."
"Jiewenjiang and Li Dasen are so relieved of you?"
"They are not familiar with the people in Jingxi, so there are so many things, so we can only put them here, but in order to reassure everyone, we have done everything we can to consider."
"What is the perfect consideration?"
"Their families know they're coming to Jingxi, and if something happens to them, their family will think of me."
"Didn't the two brothers Rao Zhilong, Rao Zhiyun and Zhang Fang's family know that they came to Jingxi?"
"I don't know. They robbed tombs as a profession, often running outside, and only returned to their hometown once in a few years. Jie Wenjiang and I found them in Mengzhou, and they haven't been in contact with their families since they came to Jingxi. โ
"All three of us have a list in our hands, and everything is written on the list, and when we have everything processed, the three of us go our separate ways."
"How many things are there?"
"There are seventeen bronze objects, three of which are sold, and fourteen of them, and thirty-one of them of jade, and one of them, and thirty of them; Fifty-eight pieces of gold. It's all here. In addition to that, I asked them to take turns living here. They both have the keys here. โ
"These things, did you originally plan to give them to Cai Yaohui?"
"Yes, we have been staring at Cai Yaohui for a long time, only he can eat these things, others, we don't know the roots, we don't know the bottom, and we don't dare to act rashly. There are still three lives in it, and we don't dare to run around like headless flies. โ
"With so many things, if they are all sold to Cai Yaohui, I'm afraid it will take a long time!"
"Yes, so, while we are spying on Cai Yaohui, we are also spying on another person."
"Who is this man?"
"It's Huo Wangting of Wen Cuixuan in District 1. After Cai Yaohui's accident, we plan to find Boss Huo. Results ......"
The four flashes began to flicker again.
Professor Nie, Section Chief Wen, and Dean Zuo circled around the pit, pressing the shutter constantly. More than a dozen bronzes are gathered in an earthen kang, which is nothing short of a miracle.
Everyone was very excited, because Zhao Zimeng and her comrades-in-arms reacted quickly, there were a lot of burial goods in the Late Ming Ancient Tomb in Ion Mountain.
The happiest person is Dean Zuo, who is already thinking about organizing an exhibition of artifacts from the Late Ming Dynasty tombs in Ion Mountain. In this exhibition, he also has a special exhibition of bronzes.
Zhu Yousong has done a great thing, he brought together so many bronzes from different periods, so there will be today's bronze exhibition, if Zhu Yousong doesn't do this, after so many years, who knows where these bronzes will go?
Ma Jianping and Lu Qian took out three wooden boxes from a corner of the pit.
Ling Hu Yunfei opened the lid of the wooden box.
Inside the two wooden boxes are jade incense burners: a green jade incense burner and a yellow jade incense burner.
Inside the third wooden chest are jade and gold objects.
Ling Hu Yunfei put on a mask and gloves, and counted the jade and gold objects in the two wooden boxes, the jade was indeed thirty, and the gold was indeed fifty-eight.
Everyone put on masks and gloves, moved the bronzes in the pit to the courtyard, registered them one by one, and handled the transfer procedures of cultural relics at the same time.
Professor Nie, Dean Zuo, and Section Chief Wen, including Lin Di, also had to take some photos. These photographs, together with the handover list, are to be filed by the police, the Cultural Relics Bureau and the museum for the record. All cultural relics should be numbered one by one with the list and photos.
Because the number of cultural relics is relatively large and the level is very high, it is not necessary to be sloppy.
Under Professor Nie's guidance, fifteen bronzes and two jade incense burners were arranged in two rows in the courtyard.
Previously, the courtyard gate had been closed.
Among the fourteen bronzes, there are two four-legged square tripods, five three-legged round tripods, one two-legged bronze incense burner, one three-legged bronze incense burner, one four-legged bronze incense burner, and none of the other bronzes have feet.
