Chapter Seventy-Eight: River Stones
The entrance is much more advanced than the so-called robbery hole, and it is also paved with cement and even tiles, and some reinforcement has been made inside.
Lao Bai didn't go to the tomb this time, he had to stay outside to coordinate the overall situation, Zhou Sunming and Xiaoqu went to the tomb with me, of course, there were a few people such as Mengzi.
Zhou Lao's "repentance and reform" is very fast, at the same time, he also consciously wants to push his grandson to our side, Lao Bai's view on this is happy to see it, although the hometown is a bit "two" and "natural", but the Mesozoic also produced a few good seedlings, this Zhou Sun Ming is one of them.
is also a "survey" word door, and Zhou Sunming can be recognized by Lao Bai, which is enough to prove his strength.
Mengzi was the first to go down, I was the second, followed by Zhou Sunming and Xiaoqu.
In fact, I also know in my heart that organizing a team to go in first is not only to explore the layout of the tomb, but also an "adventure".
Because the one who designed this burial chamber,
It's Chen Daoren!
Historically, the head of the Zhongtang Mountain Movers, Lao Bai and I were almost killed when we went to the tomb where his son was, and this is probably the place where Chen Daoren designed to be buried with Yang Yuhuan.
For Chen Daoren, this tomb is definitely a combination of what he has learned all his life, and it is impossible for him to let his future peers easily touch it.
Even, he may make some designs to break the net, and therefore, our group is more likely to explore the bottom.
After going down, there was a long corridor, and the air began to gradually become moist.
There is an underground river nearby, and no one knows if it passed through here thousands of years ago.
When we came down from the hole above and entered the corridor of the tomb, we all felt an oppressive atmosphere. The Zhu Gate was behind us, and we did not open the Zhu Gate, but chose to enter through the middle through a perforation.
No one spoke, everyone was very cautious, although everyone knew in their hearts that Yang Guifei's coffin was near here, but no one dared to take it lightly, this was a long life.
"Master, let's go fifty meters further and we'll go out."
The fierce man who walked in the front said to me.
I nodded and agreed, and if I made sure that the fifty meters were fine, I could dig up further.
We can afford to wait, and we can afford to consume, using modern machinery and equipment and today's official identity, and Chen Daoren, who was in a feudal society thousands of years ago.
We really took advantage of the right time, place and people.
"No, why aren't there murals in the tomb?" Zhou Sunming asked.
Indeed, the surrounding roads are bare bluestone bricks, which seem a little rough and simple, this kind of ancient tomb, generally burying some county kings who have no real power, is almost the same, for the real top princes and nobles, it is a bit cheap, let alone Yang Guifei.
Although Yang Guifei died, the Tang Dynasty was in the Anshi Rebellion, and she died in that environment, at least it was impossible for the imperial court to give her a beautiful burial, in fact, where Yang Guifei's tomb is has always been an unsolved mystery.
But there is Chen Dao, if this guy really wants to "stay with Yang Guifei for life" and insists on "greening" Xuanzong, he may really dare and be willing to take out all his family resources to use in the construction of this tomb.
Therefore, Chen Daoren decided the lower limit of this tomb, and at present, the layout and style of this tomb are a bit unusually low.
"This is a tomb within a tomb." I guessed.
When I say this,
Zhou Sunming glanced at me with some surprise, and Xiaoqu and Mengzi also narrowed their eyes.
Tomb in the tomb, I have experienced, for example, the tomb of the Ming Dynasty prince last time is the tomb in the tomb, just like the "magpie's nest dove occupy", borrowing the tomb of the predecessors to construct their own tombs, saving time and effort, generally used in special circumstances.
As we continued walking, Xiaoqu suddenly stopped, and knocked on the wall of the corridor with a small iron rod in his hand.
"Empty." Xiaoqu said.
We've done some probing before, so we have a rough idea of the pattern.
"Break it open." I said.
Lao Bai didn't give us this task, but since I've decided, I don't have to worry about it.
Xiaoqu nodded, and motioned for the two people around him to pry open a few green bricks on the wall of the corridor with him.
"Bang la la ............"
It's the underground river, it's the sound of water.
"It's a miracle that this burial chamber still exists." Zhou Sunming poked his head out and glanced at the flashlight a few times and said, "If this underground river deviates one meter to this side or the water depth is half a meter upward, the position of the tunnel where we are now will collapse." ”
"Get out of the way." I said.
Zhou Sunming's face was a little sneering, and he gave up his position to me.
I bit the flashlight in my mouth and looked over to the side of the underground river, I don't know why, I have a special feeling about this current, and I always feel that there is something wrong with this current here.
"Mengzi, take a look from above." I commanded the fierce son.
"Okay."
Mengzi was very obedient, drilled directly out of this gap, and then grabbed the surface of the blue brick outside with both hands and moved to the side.
"What's over there?" I shouted.
"Woo woo woo .................."
Mengzi took out the flashlight in his mouth, barely fixed his body with one hand, and shouted at the same time:
"Murals, there's murals here!"
Everyone present, including me, was stunned,
We are located in the tomb corridor,
But why do the murals appear on the outer wall of the tomb?
This doesn't make sense.
The fierce man crawled some distance again, and then shouted again:
"Master, there are stone piers here."
"What kind of stone pier?" Zhou Sunming shouted over there.
"There is a bulge in the middle of the upper circle and the lower circle, and I don't know what age it is." Matsuko replied.
"It's a river stone!" Zhou Sunming said to me with some excitement, "Master, this means that this underground river is not naturally formed, someone has dug it here."
When the river workers were digging the canals, in our part of the country, there was a custom that the river stones were buried to suppress the water veins, just like the worship of gods in a new house. ”
"In other words, the waterways have been altered, and the murals are outside, and we, in fact, are not on the inside, we are also outside?" Xiaoqu fell into deep thought.
"I see!" Zhou Sunming looked at me and continued: "It's like the tomb pattern in the tomb that the master said before is different, and Chen Daoren also used this method back then.
He borrowed the tomb, but renovated it.
And
It's really turned it upside down.
It's like a piece of clothing, staggered front and back! ”
