First of all, I would like to state that this part of the content is only a personal opinion, only for everyone to understand the relevant methods of ancient tomb robbing, do not imitate, tomb robbery is illegal, and hope to respect the deceased.

(1) In this line, tomb robbery is generally divided into four steps, namely, looking, smelling, asking, and cutting.

"Wang" refers to looking at qi and feng shui, and talks about how to judge the approximate location of the ancient tomb through the topography. There are many ways to do this.

First of all, you have to have a certain basic knowledge of Feng Shui, and the general burial place of the ancient tomb will be chosen in the place where the mountain and water are located, but it should be noted that it is very necessary to understand the customs of the area where the ancient tomb is located and the dynasty of the ancient tomb, because they are very different.

To give a few examples, in the Wei and Jin dynasties, huge thick mountain stones were built into arches, and the gaps were glued with hemp fish glue; In the Tang Dynasty, mountains were generally opened as mausoleums, and the momentum was huge; After the Qing Dynasty, more bluestone bricks were used, which were extremely strong.

Secondly, you can determine the location of the tomb by looking at the vegetation on the surface. Generally, the vegetation above the tomb does not grow well, and the grass is yellow, because the groundwater level in the place where the tomb is located is very low, and it is generally difficult for groundwater and rainwater to seep into the tomb. Moreover, when the ancients buried the coffin, they did not use ordinary soil, but used dry charcoal, viscous white plaster mud, and lime-based triple soil, which was covered, backfilled, and tamped layer by layer from bottom to top, from the inside and outside;

In addition, there is a method called "snow hunting", that is, if there is no vegetation on the ground, then it is necessary to choose winter to visit the tomb. On snowy days, the temperature of the stratum where the tomb is located and the rate at which the water is absorbed on the ground are different from those of the surrounding plots, so it can be seen by the melting of the snow water. If there is a tomb on flat ground, snow is easier to form, and the humidity rate is slower than in other places; If the ground is uneven, or has a certain elevation, it is better to judge that the place where the snow is difficult to form is where the ancient tomb is located.

"Smell" refers to smelling, relying on the smell of the earth to judge whether the tomb has been stolen, or judging the approximate dynasty of the tomb according to the soil, and even specially trained tomb robbers to find the tomb by smelling.

It is important to know that in the tombs of the Qin and Han dynasties, mercury and cinnabar were often poured for embalming, and the walls of the tombs after the Tang and Song dynasties were usually smeared with green plaster. However, it should be noted that these smells are not smelled by ordinary people because of the fact that the tomb is filled with rammed earth, so special training is required, and the tomb robber dog in front of it came into being.

"Asking" refers to talking to local elders or other prestigious people to find out some information about the ancient tomb, at this time you may need to pretend to be a feng shui gentleman to show your tongue skills;

"Cutting" is divided into three levels, the first layer refers to how to shovel and make holes, to find the fastest way to the coffin of the thief hole; The second level refers to how to touch the treasure from the deceased, and here there is a lot of attention to be paid to, and the tomb robber needs to go from head to mouth, then to anus, and finally to feet. What is important is to be quiet and accurate, and there is no omission; The last layer, which is also the deepest, is that when the experience matures, the approximate age can be judged by the touch of the hand on the antiquity. This layer is the supreme realm of tomb robbers.

(2) Methods for cracking some common mechanisms in ancient tombs.

Breaking the Sky Treasure Dragon Fire Glazed Roof: Dig from the side, and the dragon fire glazed tiles on the top will not break.

Break the rammed earth layer: Use a large spoon to pour vinegar over the rammed earth layer spoonful by spoonful, and when the bucket of vinegar is finished, the tomb wall will be almost corroded.

Breaking the Hanging Soul Ladder: It is easy to walk out blindly with your eyes closed.

Breaking the quicksand layer: Explode a large pit underground, and the quicksand is guided into the pit, and when it runs out, you can go down the hole. But this one is dangerous and requires a great deal of expertise.

Others, such as poisoned arrows and crossbows, mercury and poisonous gas, need to wear professional protective clothing and gas masks, otherwise this unpredictable thing will have to lie on the ground nine times out of ten.
