"Colonel Flower, do you see something?" I asked Li Huiyan, who was not far away, and she was also looking intently at the small stone platform in the middle of the tomb.

"Not yet, but the only thing that is certain is that this is empty, either the coffin has never been placed here, or the coffin has been artificially replaced." Li Huiyan said, pointing to the small stone platform.

I nodded, I had thought so much about it in my head just now, and naturally I had thought about it clearly.

But even so, I still feel a little strange, the tomb builders have spent so much effort to create such a tomb, is it just to leave it empty? This is also too unreasonable.

From the specifications of this tomb and the distance from the main tomb of the owner of the general's tomb, it can be easily inferred that the owner of this tomb is definitely very close to the owner of the general's tomb, and it is definitely not an ordinary master-servant relationship or superior-subordinate relationship.

As for why there is no coffin in this tomb, for the time being, we can only rely on random speculation, no one knows what the specific situation is, some people may know, but it can never be us.

"I'll go to that chamber, will you go?" The tomb was empty, and I lost interest in looking at the bare stone platform, and instead turned my eyes to an ear chamber on the left side of the tomb, and said to Li Huiyan at the same time.

"No, I'd like to go to the ear room on the right." Li Huiyan shook her head when she heard this.

I didn't force her, and went to the tomb on the left.

It is worth mentioning that although there is no coffin in this tomb, there are two permanent lamps hanging within reach of each stone wall. Li Huiyan took one at random and walked to the ear chamber on the right.

When I walked into the ear chamber on the left, I was stunned by what I saw.

The size of this chamber is not large, not the size of the previous chamber, but the layout inside this chamber is something I have never seen before.

In the ear chamber, directly opposite the doorway is a small rectangular stone platform made of stone, about one meter high, and in front of the stone platform there is a small stone bench also carved out of stone.

On top of the small stone platform, there is a wide bronze mirror with a height of about half a meter and covered with green patina.

The mirror surface of the copper mirror has long been covered by patina, and there is no luster in the past, and the hollow carved patterns on the edge of the copper mirror are all blocked by patina, and the original appearance cannot be seen.

But even so, it is conceivable that the production process of this copper mirror was definitely the top of that era, and it was impossible for ordinary people to have such a thing.

The combination of a small stone table, a bronze mirror, and a stone bench is already evident in the combination of this is a dresser used by women in ancient times.

How could a woman's dresser end up in a burial chamber?

Could it be that the original owner of this tomb was a woman?

I continued to roll my gaze in the ear chamber, and once again landed on a stone bed, carved in the same way as the dressing stone table, but much more delicate.

In addition to the dresser and the stone bed, there are many daily necessities carved in stone in the ear chamber, many of which I have never seen and cannot name, and must have been commonly used by people in the Qin Dynasty.

After observing for a while, I walked out of the ear chamber and looked up to see that Li Huiyan had already returned to the tomb.

"What do you see in the ear chamber over there?" I asked Li Huiyan.

"It's nothing, it's just some clay pots and pans and stuff, and it's like it's been made into a kitchen." Li Huiyan said.

When I heard this, I felt even more incredible.

The transept on the left has a stone bed and a dresser, and it is likely that it is a woman's bedroom.

The ear room on the right has become a kitchen, which makes people feel so close to life.

In a trance, I seemed to see a beautiful woman in ancient costume, busy in the kitchen, preparing meals and waiting for her husband's return, and using her free time to sit at the dresser and dress herself.

Maybe seeing that my expression was a little strange, Li Huiyan walked towards the ear chamber on the left after saying this.

A moment later, after all four transepts around the burial chamber had been viewed by us, an even more vivid picture came to my mind.

By this time, the owner of the tomb was probably able to confirm that it was indeed a woman, to be exact, a woman who lived in the countryside and cultivated the fields for a living.

After getting this result, instead of being the slightest relaxed, I felt a little headache, and I really couldn't figure out why the life portrayal of an ordinary country woman appeared in such a mausoleum of a general of the Qin Dynasty.

What is the relationship between this woman and the owner of this general's tomb?

Husband and wife are not very similar, after all, no general's wife will live in such an environment, others live in a deep mansion compound, and it is impossible to cook by themselves, and there are too many servants under his hand to call.

"What do you think?" I asked Li Huiyan.

"I still have a lot of things I haven't figured out, and I don't know what to say for the time being." Li Huiyan frowned slightly, shook her head and said.

I was a little disappointed when I heard this, but I also expected that each of the four transepts connected to this burial chamber seemed to be a mystery.

"Rice cakes, Sister Lizi, my neck is about to break, these murals are not beautiful at all." At this moment, Xiao Yue, who ran to see the mural with Yang Baichuan, came back listlessly, and began to complain as soon as she saw me and Li Huiyan.

We ignored her little complaints and instead asked, "What's on those murals?" ”

"Forget." Xiao Yue said, seeing me and Li Huiyan looking at her with burning eyes, she immediately shrugged her head and continued: "Okay, I admit that I only looked at the first two murals, and the back ones didn't look at all at all. ”

I was a little speechless, I didn't know what to say, probably because of what happened in Qin Dong before, Xiao Yue was listless, and I couldn't bear to blame her.

"Brother three years, I have read all the contents of the murals, and I have a general understanding." At this time, Yang Baichuan suddenly stood up to relieve Xiao Yue.

"Oh? Let's just say it, I'm curious about what's on the mural. I said.

Anyone who knows anything about tombs knows that two things are crucial in determining the identity and life history of a tomb owner.

The first is epitaphs, in the past archaeology, there are many large tombs whose owners are unknown, and they are determined by relying on the excavated epitaphs.

The second is the frescoes in the tomb, most of the murals in the tomb of the tomb owner depict the life deeds of the tomb owner, and many unknown mysteries can be solved based on this.

Of course, if there are tombstones, it is another matter, in fact, most ancient tombs buried in the ground do not have tombstones.

The content of these murals is roughly as follows: in a poor mountain village lives a loving couple, the family has four small grass houses, the husband is burly and a natural hunter, and the wife is gentle and kind, and is a well-known good wife in ten miles and eight towns. Until one day, the wolf smoke was everywhere, and her husband chose to join the army in order to serve the country, and he never returned. ”

"The wife waited at home, but she never heard from her husband. Until one day, her husband returned from riding a horse in a military uniform, and he was already a Yum general admired by everyone. The husband left the small mountain village with his wife and returned to his general's mansion. But when the wife returned to the general's mansion, she sadly found that her husband had already been a group of wives and concubines. ”

After being taken back to the general's mansion, the wife forced a smile in front of her husband every day, and lived in great pain. Looking at her husband's group of wives and concubines, the wife couldn't accept all these changes, and she would rather her husband had already died on the battlefield. Until one day she mustered up the courage to escape from the General's Mansion and returned to the small mountain village. ”

Soon after, her husband found her again, but this time she refused to go back, and she had to stay in the small mountain village to live alone.

"That's roughly the way the content of the murals is, there were originally three murals in the back, but they were artificially destroyed, and there was no way to see the specific appearance, so there is no way to speculate what happened later." Yang Baichuan said.

During the war years, the husband joined the army and the wife stayed at home alone.

To be honest, such plots were too common during the period from the Warring States Period to the Qin Dynasty, and there was not much reference value at all.

The most important frescoes are obviously the three that were destroyed in the back, and they are supposed to record what happened after the husband found his wife again, but unfortunately there is no way to restore them.

Could it be that the owner of this tomb is the wife in the mural? The identity of her and the owner of the tomb is actually husband and wife?

Thinking of the furnishings in the four ear chambers, the answer is already coming out. Nine times out of ten, the pattern of these four ear chambers is copied from the pattern of the four thatched houses in the countryside, and it may even be completely restored and moved to the tomb.

In this way, it seems that the reason why there are these four incompatible transepts in a huge general's tomb seems to be able to be explained smoothly.

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a clicking sound not far from where Village Chief Yao was.

I quickly put away all my thoughts and walked over with the others. Village Chief Yao said that it was a little difficult to open the tomb door, but he never expected that it would be difficult to reach the bottom of this tomb, and it took nearly ten minutes before and after.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you that the grimace pattern is actually a ghost totem." Village Chief Yao opened the tomb door and said to us without looking back.

"Ghost totem? What's that? The dragon totem and wolf totem have heard of it, is there still a nation in this world that regards ghosts as totems? "Village Chief Yao's words confuse me.

"If there is no now, it does not mean that there were no ancient times, there are too many unsolved mysteries in this world that we do not know." Li Huiyan said on the side.

Having said that, I'm a little unconvinced that the dragon and the wolf as totems can be seen as the worship of nature.

Treating ghosts as totems, is there ever a nation that we don't know about worshipping death?

Village Chief Yao's simple words were like a bombshell thrown into my mind, and in an instant my mind became a mess.

I couldn't figure it out, I still couldn't figure it out, I looked up at Li Huiyan beside me, and she was also frowning.

But Village Chief Yao himself is concentrating on opening the tomb door at this time.

After Village Chief Yao finished saying that, he never opened his mouth again.

Although my heart was full of countless questions, in order not to disturb Village Chief Yao, I had to keep silent for the time being. To find this site, please search for "6 Mao" or enter the URL:.
