Chapter 12 Rammed Earth Layer
Chapter 12 Rammed Earth Layer
We were very depressed when we saw Li Qing's appearance, although we had already prepared in our hearts, but before we saw the tomb, there was an accident with someone, everyone's hearts were full of dark clouds, and the atmosphere became depressed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info We didn't dare to touch Li Qing, as long as we took a quilt to cover Li Qing's body and made a simple small grave, it could be regarded as burying her. I felt very uncomfortable in my heart, I wanted to bring everyone back safely, but this kind of thing happened, I really don't know how to explain it to Li Qing's family.
Seeing my depressed look, Lan Shan walked up to me and kept patting me on the back and comforting me. Lao Hei said at this time, "You student cubs, when you go to the deep mountains and old forests, you must be honest, don't understand what you don't know anymore, let's go!" ”
Lao Hei didn't have the mood of those of us, he was only suitable for us to get along for about two days, and he couldn't say that this guy was ruthless. We packed up our mood and continued on the road, I saw many students, they were all looking back step by step, constantly looking at Li Qing's small grave, everyone was in a very heavy mood now, and they became much more cautious when walking, and our marching speed became gradually slow.
Time passed slowly, and suddenly we all noticed that the dense forest at this time suddenly became sparse, although there was still a lot of vegetation, but it was the opposite of the towering trees we saw. The trees we were on were barely as tall as a man, and there were a few weeds growing here and there, but they were very low, and most of them looked drooping, as if they were a little malnourished.
At this time, the dense forest suddenly became empty for half a year, this phenomenon is absolutely unusual, and it is very likely that it is where we are going. At this time, Yang Cheng suddenly said, "Teacher, the vegetation here is completely opposite to the previous one, what is the reason!" ”
"In ancient times, in order to prevent their corpses from being eaten by snakes, insects, rats and ants after their deaths, or to keep the dryness of the tomb, they would use lavender, rosemary, thyme, mint, sage and other substances plus some lime powder, cinnabar and other substances will play a role in driving away snakes and insects, but it will also play some side effects, it will be that the soil is strongly alkaline and not suitable for the growth of plants" I patiently explained the things in front of me to Yang Cheng, because there was not too much vegetation, so everyone's mood became happy, At least there should be no poisonous insects or poison dart frogs here.
But at this time, Yang Cheng asked rhetorically, "That's not right!" Teacher. You see there are so many trees in front of you, so tall! ”
I looked in the direction of Yang Cheng's finger, and it was hard to imagine that there could be a tall tree here, which was unreasonable, and completely broke my scientific knowledge. I saw that there were exactly nine large trees in front of me, but although they were tall, they were all withered.
"Old professor, why don't you understand this? Ay! Let's just say that you intellectuals only know how to read to death, and you can't understand what it means to practice to produce true knowledge. "Lao Hei said at this time.
Yang Cheng ran to Lao Hei's side and said, "Big Brother Hei, then tell us what's going on with this thing?" ”
I first preemptively said, "This kind of tree is called a tree that is in line with the technique of ninety-nine, the principle of the unity of heaven and man." In the past, all the princes or nobles would plant a few trees next to their graves, one theory is that this thing has Yin Ze descendants, and one theory says that this thing is called Feng Shui Forest, which represents the meaning of the dragon head in Feng Shui, if Feng Shui is destroyed, the dragon will die. ”
"Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect our old professor to know this, yes! Now that we have found the Feng Shui Forest, it means that the location of the tomb is here. "I seem to be very unhappy that I have stolen the limelight, but it's not a big deal.
Lao Hei chose the position of the northeast direction of the feng shui forest with the compass, we took out the luggage, everyone began to do a big job, some of the students had a shovel in their hands, some did not have tools, they began to dig with their hands, everyone's enthusiasm was very high, the efficiency of the work was very fast, and soon I only heard a metal knock in my ears 'bell!' ’。 Everyone began to gather around, and at this time Yang Cheng shouted, "Teacher, teacher!" Come here, we dug four or five meters, and we can't dig anymore, come and see what's going on! ”
I heard Yang Cheng's shout, and Lao Hei and everyone walked over, only to see that there was a layer of white-gray soil on the ground at this time. Lao Hei said at this time, "Don't waste your efforts, the ancient Liao State is the most important to prevent theft, the mausoleum is filled with yellow clay lime and coarse sand, and then use glutinous rice milk as a binder, after full stirring, layer by layer tamping, very strong, even if you use a sharp pickaxe planer, it is just a small white spot left on it, the hardness is no less than the cement commonly used in modern times, and the main building of blue bricks with a thickness of five meters below can be described as solid, and ordinary people want to steal and have no ability, don't waste your efforts. ”
"What then? Big Brother Black, we can't come in vain, this is the biggest archaeological deed so far, we can't give up all our efforts! Yang Cheng said anxiously, and many students also agreed.
"Don't worry! The mountain people have their own clever plan, this soil layer is called the rammed earth layer, and if you break through here, it is very likely to reach the location of the tomb. Don't worry, let's eat first, by the way, get some glutinous rice soup, it will be useful later! Lao Hei said with a smile.
