After speaking, Xiaohua asked me, can you see what dynasty established everything here.

I said, "It's hard to say, it's not a typical monument, if it's the site of an ancient tomb or a temple, because its carved buildings contain a lot of cultural details, it's easy to know its dynasty, but if you find the ruins of a blacksmith's shop, unless the blacksmith is part of a large ancient city ruins, it's hard to know its date, because there are so few places in the blacksmith to carry cultural information." ”

All the patterns and textures on the walls, including the stone carvings on the walls and the iron plates here, lacked the characteristics of a particular dynasty, so it was almost impossible to tell in which era they were built, and I didn't delve into them, because I had subconsciously associated them with style lei.

There are iron tools here, and the earliest official appearance was in the Spring and Autumn Period, but because of the existence of meteoric iron, in fact, it is difficult to judge the age by iron tools alone. However, because style lei is involved, then, even if it was not established in the Qing Dynasty, it must have been used in the Qing Dynasty.

I've always thought that I, an undergraduate student in the People's Republic of China, couldn't do it. "Do you think you can see anything from the dynasties here?" I asked.

"Chinese tomb culture is constantly evolving, and all kinds of elaborate institutions have very clear characteristics of the times, and the more developed the dynasty, the more technological leaps will appear. For example, the pigeon that appeared in the Han Dynasty developed into a chain plate in the Tang Dynasty, and the Liao people were located in the northern cold land, and the ancient tombs and tombs there were mostly highly poisonous, and the stones were discharged, and they arrived in the Qing Dynasty. The entry of foreign machinery and technology has enriched the development of strange and obscene arts, and even made a mechanism that can restore itself without sound, if you can know what era it was built in. You probably know that there are several possibilities here. Xiaohua said: "To give an extreme example, this is definitely not modern. Then there would be no such thing as infrared that we need to worry about. ”

I've heard my grandfather say this, and it's true, but I think it's too risky to use this trick here. Because I have been through a lot of things before, I understand that the only thing I can be sure of in this mystery of thousands of years ago is that the ancients cannot be underestimated.

My grandfather also told me another example. In a tomb of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he saw a very strange pottery, which was a long pottery vase. It's full of hand-counted holes, more like a musical instrument. He thought he had found a vessel for "filtering", but when he picked up the pottery it was very, very heavy, and then when he turned it upside down to see what was going on, in that instant, through the hole in the pottery. There are a lot of small stone carving hands. All the hands have an arc, half of the hole in the hand. Spread to the left, while the other side of the hole extends the arm to the right.

All the hands form a fan like a peacock spreading its wings.

With such a composition, his gaze naturally focuses on the middle of the fan. I saw that in the middle line, in the hole in the center of the row, a black statue of the Buddha protruded from it. With the Buddha's hands on both sides, it looks like a thousand-armed Kannon embedded in a bottle.

He froze, because at that moment, all the holes were growing "things" at the same time. And it immediately grew into such a thing, and the process was actually extremely shocking. He even thought. The bottle is a living thing.

Later, it was lost when he fled. He never saw it again, but he liked it so much that he wanted a modern craftsman to make a copy, but none of the modern craftsmen could make it, because they couldn't set up the bracket inside the pottery that had already been fired. Even if you barely make a look, it's not like that at all.

In the Northern Zhou Dynasty, there should not have been such elaborate skills, and my grandfather told me that this shows that there will be some people in each dynasty who completely transcend the era in which they lived. The more inscrutable the tomb, the more unconventional the place, the more likely it is to see this kind of thing.

However, anyway, I can't analyze the dynasty here, so I didn't say much to Xiaohua, so we had to continue to think about it. You still have to understand the strangeness in the photo.

But what does this mean? This is much more difficult than simply finding the graphical information from these figures, because it is more disorganized. If it was something that only someone in their family knew, it would be almost impossible to guess.

In addition, there is basically no information to check in this mysterious family, so basically we are facing an unsolvable situation.

Thinking of this, I immediately began to admire the designers of this bureau back then, if this was an anti-tomb measure, it would have been too successful.

I remember my grandfather said that there are several levels of anti-theft measures, and often all large tombs have such characteristics.

The first is that it can't be found; The second is that it can't be opened; The third is that it cannot be taken away. This Zhangjia Ancient Building has achieved the extreme in almost every point. No wonder after all these years, everyone has been helpless against it.

But, when you think about it this way, isn't there nothing you can do? The only thing that can be done now is to leave here and go everywhere to collect information about Zhangjialou, with the degree of secrecy of Zhangjiagulou, not to mention whether it can be found, even if there is really some information, I am afraid it will take more than half a year, not to mention whether the information is useful.

I was very frustrated when I thought of this, I am such a person, as long as there is a little hope, I will be full of energy, but once my consciousness judges that this thing is impossible, then I will immediately fall, and Xiaohua listened to me, and fell silent.

We've been delayed for a long time. But I had no clue, and I felt a little hopeless. I felt that even if we tried in vain for a few more days, we could only send a letter back and tell the old woman: "Sorry, we can't do it, or let's go back to Beijing and take a shower and see if there is any other way?" ”

I don't mind, but I always feel that by doing this, the Wu family's face will definitely be lost by me, although in fact, the Wu family has no face left until now. However, I know that Xiaohua can't give up so easily.

He was silent for a moment, and then said to the Sichuan guy: "You help me send a letter back and tell them that the photo cannot be declassified, and we will take our own way and let them wait for a while." ”

The Chengdu guy nodded, but his face changed slightly: "Boss, you come by yourself?" Would you like to give Mr. a call? ”

Xiaohua shook her head: "It's okay, I can handle it." ”

The guy nodded and went out, and I pulled the rope to send him out, and asked Xiaohua, "What do you call our own way?" What else can be done now? ”

"Think differently. All the tricks, the tricks, if you can't unravel the front, you can use a more brutal method. ”

I still didn't understand, so he took a sip of soju and said, "If you can't restore a Rubik's cube, what's the easiest way?" He made a breaking motion, "Pick off all the colors on the Rubik's cube and put them back on as you want." ”

"Ah, you mean? You're going to-"

"I'm going to unravel it from the inside of the machine." "I'm going to go behind the walls of these caves and see how this mechanism is structured," he said. (To be continued)
