Everyone else looked at me nervously, Zhu Qi was most excited, and the cigarette stick on Zhu Qi's lips drooped down, and I pointed to the river on the silk cloth: "The tomb of the monarch is within the territory of the kingdom of Qiu." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Within the Territory?!" Zhu Qi was taken aback after hearing this, and then shook his head blankly. "I can still get my hands on the ability to explore the tomb, after getting this silk cloth, I have explored all the places where it may be buried, if it is in the territory of the kingdom of Qiu, I should have found something."

"Seventh Master, it's not your ability to visit the tomb, it's that you haven't explored the location of the mausoleum at all." I replied with a faint smile.

"Anything else I haven't explored?" Zhu Qi frowned, and after thinking for a long time, he still shook his head. "This is related to the testament of the ancestors of the Zhu family, I will definitely not deviate, according to the burial system of the Western Zhou Dynasty, but wherever it can be buried, I will not fall anywhere."

"Seventh Master, it's not that you missed something, but the location of the mausoleum you can't reach at all."

"Where the hell?"

"Bury the river!" I pointed to the river on the silk cloth. "The real meaning, the tomb of the monarch of the Kingdom of Yu is at the bottom of the Yellow River!"

……

As soon as my voice fell, everyone in the room was dumbfounded, the cigarette sticks on Zhu Qi's lips fell to the ground, and they looked at each other, and it took a long time for Ying Yuan to speak: "The monarch's mausoleum is at the bottom of the Yellow River?" This, how is this possible? ”

"Chaoge, I'm afraid your inference is up for debate, you must know that the Yellow River has always been flooded and has not been able to be cured so far, under the circumstances at that time, the manpower and material resources of the Kingdom of Qiu could not control the Yellow River at all, and how could the mausoleum be built at the bottom of the Yellow River." Tian Wanqing said.

"Yes, I don't think it's possible, if what you say is true, you have to cut off the flow of the Yellow River first, and you will inevitably have to build a dam upstream, so that it is possible to build a mausoleum somewhere downstream, which is theoretically possible." Xue Xinrou pointed to the course of the Yellow River on the map and said. "However, a king-level mausoleum has to be built for five or six years, and even if a dam can be built in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, it can't store water for more than such a long time without draining floods."

"Don't say that the water has been stored for five or six years, you haven't heard the saying that the Yellow River is not bridged, the Yellow River is turbulent, it is very difficult to erect bridges, and the productivity is backward in ancient times, and it is not possible to make bridges without bridges." Ye Zhiqiu also shook his head at me and said. "If you can't build a bridge, how can you dam it upstream?"

"Besides, the most taboo thing about building a mausoleum is water, once the excavated tomb has water penetration, it will inevitably lead to the collapse of the soil layer, even if the mausoleum can be completed, the burial in it will not be firm, and it will collapse sooner or later." Ying Chengyuan looked at me and said solemnly. "Moreover, the tombs in the Western Zhou Dynasty were all civil structures, even if the tombs were capped, as long as the river was restored, how much pressure it would have to bear at the bottom of the Yellow River was absolutely unbearable with the construction technology at that time."

"In a sturdy burial chamber, it is believed that it will collapse in an instant!" Tian Wanqing said without thinking.

"Yes, of course I know what you said, don't say that it was the Kingdom of Yu 2,000 years ago, even now, it is difficult to build a mausoleum at the bottom of the Yellow River." I smiled faintly and my voice was firm. "However, others can't, but the monarch of the kingdom can do it."

"Why?" Zhu Qi asked.

I pointed to the river that had disappeared on the map and replied, "Why don't you want to think about the river that was supposed to be the course of the Yellow River 2,000 years ago, but why is it not there now?" ”

Tian Wanqing looked down, and quickly raised his head and said: "After the ancient tomb of the Kingdom of Qiu was discovered, the archaeological team specially studied this river, and the reason for the disappearance was that the king of Zhou at that time diverted the Yellow River ......"

Tian Wanqing was suddenly stunned, I knew that most of the people who thought of the mystery of this when I looked at her expression, the frequent disasters of the Yellow River have a long history, and there are countless records in history, because the river is turbid, it is called the turbid river.

The sediment has been increasing unabated, some of these sediments are piled up on the downstream riverbed, accumulating over time, the riverbed is silted high, all rely on the embankment constraints, and the hanging river is formed over time.

After the river bursts, abandon the original riverbed and follow the new road called diversion, the Yellow River due to the sand and siltation, the changes are impermanent, the diversion is very frequent, the earliest can be traced back to the Yu period, when the method of flood control is dredged.

In order to prevent the flooding of the Yellow River, the King of Zhou implemented a diversion project on the Yellow River, and it was the State of Yu who participated in this project.

"That's why there was a deserted river in the territory of the Kingdom of Qiu, and the monarch of the Kingdom of Qiu did the opposite, and after the Yellow River was diverted, the monarch directly built the mausoleum in the old channel." I nodded and continued to say to the others. "The project to divert the Yellow River must be extremely huge, and the construction of a mausoleum on the old river channel will naturally not be noticed, and people who don't know the truth still think that it is part of the project, which is why the tomb of the monarch of the Kingdom of Yu has not been discovered."

"The prince collapsed, and the river was buried...... That's what it means, no wonder I searched all over the territory of the kingdom, but I couldn't find any clues about the tomb of the king, and I would have thought that the mausoleum would be built under the riverbed. Zhu Qi suddenly realized.

"Now that you know the place, it's not easy to do, hurry up and find out the location of the tomb." Tian Ji said.

"How?" Tian Wanqing looked up at Tian Ji.

"Mom, there are many ways to visit the tomb, which is completely different from your archaeological excavation method, isn't there still the seventh master and my dad here, and besides, Chaoge was trained by Uncle Ye himself, there are three generations of tomb exploration masters in this room, as long as you know the place, you can dig out any tomb."

"Of course, I believe that this is not a difficult thing in other places, but if the mausoleum is built under the ancient river channel, no matter what method is used to explore the tomb, it is impossible to know the location of the ancient tomb." Tian Wanqing said solemnly.

"Aunt Tian, why can't you find out under the ancient river channel?" Xue Xinrou asked.

"After the riverbed dries up, after a long period of sun and rain, the sedimented water on the riverbed will solidify and be rock-solid, making it difficult to knock down the probe shovel."

"yes, that's a tricky question." Ying Cheng Yuan asked with a solemn expression. "Wanqing, you are most familiar with this section of the river, how long is it?"

"The measured distance is more than thirty kilometers."

"Such a long distance......" Zhu Qi picked up the cigarette stick on the ground, lowered his head and pondered for a moment before saying. The mausoleum may be built in any location, if you want to find out the location of the tomb, it is necessary to use the way of caving with plum blossom piles, and the matter is very important and can not leak the news, just rely on these people in the house, say less, and there will be no results in five or six years. ”

"I think it's more than that, although the river is deserted, it's not that no one is moving, we are blatantly digging holes in the river, with the identity of the seventh master and Uncle Ying, presumably in ten days and half a month at most, the news will leak out." Gong Jue said.

I shook my head silently, sighed heavily, and said, these are not the key, the most troublesome is not these problems, even if we can explore the more than 30 kilometers of river without being discovered, the final result is nothing.

"Why?" Ye Zhiqiu asked.

"After the shovel is hit, it is based on the soil structure, color and inclusions brought out, etc., to judge the unearthed quality and whether there are ancient tombs underground, and the simple thing is to see if there is living soil underneath......

"There can't be living soil under the ancient river channel!" Ying Yuan was taken aback, and his voice was anxious when he took my words. "The soil layer under the ancient river channel is all sedimented silt and river sand, and when the mausoleum was built, the excavated and buried dead soil, and the whole ancient river channel is the same, that is, all the dead soil within the 30 kilometers range."

"This monarch of the Kingdom of Yu is really a bit interesting, I don't know if this person chose the location of the mausoleum at will, or decided to build the mausoleum under the ancient river channel after a thousand choices, if it is deliberate, then this person may have built the most secret and safest tomb, no one should try to find the location of this mausoleum." Zhu Qi took a puff of cigarette and said slowly.

"Is there no other way?" Ye Zhiqiu was anxious.

"There shouldn't be, after the ancient tomb of the Kingdom of Yu was discovered, because only civilian tombs were found, and the noble tombs have not been discovered so far, so in addition to the archaeological team, there are many tomb robbers trying to find the location of the noble tombs, but so far I have not heard any news that any noble tombs have been discovered, if the tombs are under the river, it must be impossible to harvest unless the entire river is dug three feet into the ground." Tian Wanqing shook her head and replied.

Zhu Qi spit out a puff of smoke, took the current map on the table to him, stared at it silently for a long time, pointed to the map with a cigarette stick and asked Tian Wanqing: "This is the location of the first ancient tomb of the Kingdom of Qiu, the archaeological team in the southeast and west has explored the edge, and you found the ancient tombs in the north, but the Yellow River Ancient Road is in the east, why didn't you explore this place in depth back then?" ”

"The excavation to the east did not find any more burial sites, and the proximity to the Yellow River Ancient Road, the archaeological team deduced that there should be no more ancient tombs, and later the eastern area was divided into local residents who were expropriated for expropriating land for the excavation of ancient tombs, and this village is now called Xinyu Village."

"Xinyu Village is on the edge of the Yellow River Ancient Road!" Zhu Qi frowned, as if he had thought of something, and looked up at Ying Chengyuan. "How many gophers do you have here?"

Ying Chengyuan didn't say a word, and asked Jiang Wufu downstairs to come up, and after whispering a few words, it didn't take long for Jiang Wufu to come up with a heavy bag, Ying Chengyuan put the bag on the table and opened it, which was full of yellow gold bars, not to mention that there were hundreds of them.

"If you don't have so many, take seven or eight with you, and let's go out for a walk." Zhu Qi cleaned up the cigarette stick and said meaningfully.
