As soon as the fat man heard a few words that no one had seen before, he immediately came to his senses: "So you haven't been stolen below?" Then let's go in and maybe we'll bump into some treasures, so what are you waiting for, hurry down and open the door to see. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

I hurriedly said, "Don't mind, you better wait first, at your weight, the rope has been broken and washed away in the river, see who you go to." ”

In order to be safe, I asked them to prepare three ropes, leaving the second and third children, Da Chun, Li Mei and Tong Qin, two girls waiting on it, and the others were eager to try to come down, Li Guohua was also a little impatient, the fat man was too heavy, so he went down first.

After they all came down, the fat man and I stepped forward to push the stone gate first, the stone gate itself is not big, but the weight is not light, the strength of the milk has been exerted, just pushed open a gap, I don't know how the ancients in the past got it here, Emma and Gu Tong saw that we pushed for a long time and only pushed out a gap, so they came forward to take a hand, five people at the same time against the stone door force, the stone door opened in response.

Behind the stone gate was a brick and stone corridor, spacious and neat, and it was pitch black inside, and the flashlight shone inside, almost engulfed in darkness, and I beckoned the fat man Emma to come forward, and took a rope and tied several people to a rope.

Emma took out a stick of incense and yellow paper from her bag, put the yellow paper on the ground, and inserted the lit incense on the yellow paper, I looked a little strange, how could the archaeologists who had drunk foreign ink still play this set, she said that the purpose of this incense point here is to prevent us from being able to get around it, incense is a very magical thing in the eyes of ancient people, no matter what the ghost is, it is impossible to disperse the smoke floating out of the incense, and it is impossible to extinguish the spark, although there are too many superstitious elements of this kind of thing, but it is better to believe that it exists, not to believe that it is not.

Five people wearing gas masks, walked inside about forty or fifty meters, passed through eight doors in a row, each door was depicted with different ornamental reliefs, the size of the door was about the same, after each door was opened, the corridor was larger than the previous section, and the corridor in front of the last door was at least two people high.

Pushing open the last door, the flashlight entered, and several big men almost screamed. A relief appeared in front of him, and in the middle was carved a hideous face, lifelike, and it looked really terrifying at a glance.

After a false alarm, Gutong and Emma both said that this pattern, the mural has never been walked through. The whole mural is like a stone wall standing at the entrance of the ancient yamen, the size is about 20 square meters, not only the two of them, even we laymen are surprised, this stone gate has just allowed three people to walk side by side, how did such a large stone wall be transported in.

Bypassing the stone wall relief, the space behind Huo Ran is spacious, the flashlight can't shine on the left and right, the height was about five meters before, and the four people are now inside, and the space is very spacious.

Although the space is large, the atmosphere seems a little depressing, the ground is full of white bones, can not find a place to stay, the bones of people and animals are mixed together, extremely loose, one foot is broken, a cursory look around, whether it is a person or an animal everywhere do not see a skull, there is a stone platform in front of it, the stone platform is surrounded by a circle of hands tied behind the back, kneeling on the ground of the dry corpse, the dry corpse has no head, and there is a stick tied to the back.

Even if Emma and Gu Tong are well-informed, such a scene will feel weird, but they are not afraid, Li Guohua, a rich man, has a somewhat ugly face, perhaps because of habit and quality, he quickly calmed down, and stood in the middle of the team without saying a word.

Emma, as the only woman in the team, looked at these bones and sighed: "It's all caused by feudal superstition, if it's an ancient tomb here, these people should be buried, if not, then these people are sacrifices used for sacrifice." ”

Gu Tong nodded and said to everyone: "In my opinion, this should be an altar, used to hold sacrifices, all countries in the ancient Western Regions have the custom of sacrifice, according to different regions, different sects of faith, the means of sacrifice are also different. After the Yanqi Kingdom was subdued by the Tang Dynasty, it was influenced by Buddhism, and this bloody sacrificial custom did not exist. There should also be a burial chamber in this, so let's look for it first. ”

The five of them circled around the four walls and looked around, the stone walls on all four sides were solid, and there would be no other space behind them.

Finally, we set our sights on the stone wall at the doorway and the altar surrounded by headless corpses. The whole stone wall does not have any joints, as if it is carved out of a natural stone, the strange relief on the front, compared to the back of the stone wall, it seems a little strange, there is nothing, Emma walked around the stone wall, carefully found that the eyes of the strange faces carved on the front of the stone wall are loose, and it took a lot of effort to press down the loose stone eye, and then the mural 'bang' muffled sound, echoed in the stone room for a long time, and the sound did not disperse for a long time.

We waited vigilantly for a long time, as if nothing had happened except for this muffled sound, as if the mechanism designed by the ancients was just for such a sound, the fat man said: "This mechanism must be scrapped, you have all said, this ancient tomb has a history of thousands of years, even if it is a cannon now, it has to be maintained for so many years, not to mention the bow and arrow spear, it has long been rotten, and it is good to have a sound." ”

There's some truth to what he said, and whatever the mechanism is, at least there should be a door to the rest of the world.

Gu Tong wore heavy myopic glasses, walked around the altar one by one with a flashlight, and when he retreated, his right foot stepped into the air, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks, and he fell straight and screamed, stood up and touched his buttocks, and shouted carelessly. The fat man's eyes were sharp, he could see that something was wrong at a glance, and he quickly rushed up, and he didn't know when a circular pit with a depth of twenty centimeters appeared in the middle of the altar, at first glance, there was no difference between this pit and the material of the altar, and there was a round stone slab at the bottom, a very obvious gap was separated from the middle, there was a beast head on both sides, and a large copper ring was held in his mouth, and there was a vacuum of about five centimeters around the pit.

I looked at the pit, stood up and thought about it, and said, "Could this place be such a pit because Miss Duan touched the mechanism?" ”

Gu Tong said: "This is very likely, after Miss Duan pressed the mechanism just now, because there was a muffled sound, and the continuous sound of painting in this cave, it is easy to hide the sound of the stone slab activity on this altar." And this kind of mechanism is not complicated, after pressing it just now, something must have fallen, and the downward force of the object was skillfully used in it, driving the stone slab, and because it is a stone thing, it can still work even today, thousands of years later. ”

Emma also agreed, and the fat man said impatiently: "Whatever he can't do, since it's opened, let's go down?" ”

I nodded and said that it was no problem, and beckoned the fat man to help me pull the slate away, the fat man rolled up his sleeves, squatted on the ground and pulled it out with me, the slate was like a round stone door that fell to the ground, opened to both sides, skimmed a light stick and threw it in, the bright light of the light stick belonged to the cold light, and we were a little unable to adapt to it for a while. At first glance, it seems to be a stone beast squatting on the ground, rubbing his eyes, and when he looks again, there is only a square coffin at the bottom, saying that it is a coffin, in my opinion, this should be like a coffin box, boxy, long on both sides and short on both sides, without any pattern decoration, a bit like an enlarged stationery box.

This form of coffin and tomb, as far as I know, seems to be a cultural custom that existed before the Qin and Han dynasties, and after the Qin and Han dynasties, under the influence of the Confucian culture of the Han nation, this kind of burial of living people and living creatures gradually became rare, and was replaced by figurines to accompany the burial. Old Master Confucius once scolded: "The initiator has no aftermath." In the ancient funeral customs, there must be a living person to accompany the burial, and then there are terracotta figurines to accompany the burial, but Confucius believes that there is a figurine first, and then there are living people to accompany the burial.

Therefore, the burial of living people and living creatures basically did not appear in Chinese history after the Qin and Han dynasties, and it is speculated that this tomb should be at least before the Qin and Han dynasties, or even beyond, and if you can find something valuable about the Qin and Han dynasties, it is also a great discovery.

At this time, Emma and Gu Tong's eyes suddenly lit up, even Li Guohua, who is usually silent, could breathe fire from both eyes, and before I could speak, Emma jumped down with a flashlight first, and the gas mask covered her face, I couldn't see her expression, but looking at the way she danced, I could guess that there must be some big discovery below.

We also jumped off the tomb one after another, the flashlight shone around, I was dumbfounded, the four walls of the tomb are carved with exquisite colorful murals, birds and animals are lifelike, I looked at it for a long time before I reacted.

Emma walked around the small burial chamber, and the place where the coffin was placed was also a stone platform, which was about half a meter high, and there were some colorful pictures carved on it, but it was far less beautiful than the one on the wall, and Emma looked at it for a long time: "Hey... Why does this place look so familiar? Come and see. ”

Hearing this, I hurried up, and sure enough, a very familiar painting, I can't remember seeing it there, and I don't know what it is, the fat man glanced at it: "Oops... I said you, or have drunk foreign ink, that's all you remember? Isn't this the map of Lao Li's house? ”
