Chapter 47 Secret Burial in the Tomb

Ulaanbaatar means Red Heroes, so we didn't go directly to the hotel, and the first stop of the tour was to the Monument to the Heroes of the Soviet Union.

On the way, we also passed by Genghis Khan Mountain, the car drove on the relatively high road, looking at the side of the whole mountain from a distance, there is a huge portrait of Genghis Khan, it is said that in every place in Ulaanbaatar, you can see the portrait on this mountain, which shows how important Genghis Khan occupies in the hearts of the Mongolian people.

I asked Yan Qiu: "Is Genghis Khan buried on this mountain?" ”

The fat brother preemptively said: "You really don't know how to learn, Chengling is obviously in our country, the Yijin Horo Banner grassland on the outskirts of Ordos City." ”

Yan Qiu interrupted the fat brother: "Each other, don't laugh at him, that Chengling is not the place where Genghis Khan is really buried?" ”

The fat brother asked: "Chengling is not a burial place, so where do you say?" ”

Yan Qiu smiled and continued: "The Mongolian people are prevalent in secret burials, so it is still a mystery where exactly to bury them. You said that Chengling, according to historical records, just collected a piece of camel skin, and legend has it that that piece of camel hair absorbed the last breath of Genghis Khan and was called the camel hair of the soul. The Chengling Tomb you are talking about has actually been moved many times, and it was not until 1954 that it was moved from the Taer Temple in Qinghai to its current location. ”

I asked Yanqiu, "Then do you know where Genghis Khan is buried?" ”

Yan Qiu gave a clear answer: "The valley of Mount Kent. ”

She really knew that she was indeed a top student in the Department of Archaeology, which made me look at me with admiration.

But she added, "No one knows where it is." ”

The fat guy said, "Only you know? ”

Yan Qiu smiled and said, "Actually, I don't know. ”

I don't want to let this anti-renunciation conversation continue. He interrupted Yan Qiu and said, "Didn't you say that you were in Qilin Valley? How do you say that no one knows? You don't know either? What does this mean? ”

Yan Qiu explained to me: "Legend has it that he was buried in the valley of Kent Mountain, but where is this Kent Mountain? Where is the valley? Nobody knows. ”

Jiang Li said: "Xiaoxue knows, she said that the birthplace of the Tula River is Mount Kent, and the little stone people in the river come from there. ”

Yan Qiu continued to speak patiently: "This Kent Mountain in Mongolia is not necessarily the Kent Mountain where Genghis Khan was buried at that time. This Kent Mountain is the holy mountain of Mongolia, also known as Buhaner Mountain, which is the birthplace of the wolf tribe, that is, the birthplace of the Mongolian people. In 119 B.C., that is, the fourth year of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, the general Huo Qubing had chased and killed the Huns here, sacrificed to the heavens and the earth here, and was named the Wolf Juxu Mountain, or it may be the Wolf Cave, which was misinterpreted as the Wolf Juxu by later generations. ”

Jiang Li said: "That's right, Genghis Khan is buried in the birthplace of the Mongolian people, that's right." ”

Yan Qiu shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, because Mongolia implements secret burials, it is possible that they released smoke bombs." And this Kent Mountain, there is no place called the valley at all, and for many years, no one knows where it is buried. Archaeological experts from various countries have delineated the location of the tomb, and it is more likely that there are four places, one is the south of Kent Hill and the north of the Krulun River. The second is Mongolia's Hangai Mountain. The third is Liupan Mountain in Ningxia, China. The fourth is the Qianli Mountain of the Etuoke Banner of Ordos City. In recent years, Kyrgyzstan has also been described as a mausoleum, possibly at the bottom of Lake Issyk-Kul in their country. ”

In this way, we completely understand that this Genghis Khan has more eyes than Cao Cao, and people simply spread the graves all over the Eurasian continent, and they are not in the same place at all, and it will take most of their lives to find them all.

Jiang Li looked out the car window, pointed his hand and said, "It must be in that place." ”

Naturally, we couldn't see anything, but I knew that Jiang Li was referring to the destination of our trip, and she said that there was a huge whirlpool. Where was Genghis Khan buried? I think it's unlikely, how can a person's mausoleum have such an effect? It can absorb the earth's qi veins. I've always thought that the mountains and rivers there are out of balance because people don't pay attention to environmental protection, that is, the feng shui there is artificially destroyed or something.

I asked Jiang Li, "Is the whirlpool you see?" ”

Jiang Li shook his head and said, "I can't see it." ”

My eyes widened and I asked, "Can't see it?" That's not running for nothing? ”

Jiang Li said again: "I can't see it, it's because we're already in the whirlpool now." ”

As soon as she said this, I immediately felt uncomfortable, it should be the reason for the conditioned reflex, I always felt that my body was starting to be a little overdrawn, and I had no strength in my body. But looking out the sunny car window and the tourists around me talking and laughing, I persuaded myself that I was too sensitive.

Not long after, the car stopped at the foot of a mountain, and in the distance, you could see a gray-white standing humanoid sculpture on the mountain, the man was wearing a hat similar to a steel helmet, but he was not wearing a military uniform, and he was leaning against a large pillar about ten meters high behind him.

We climbed the stairs up the hill with the tourists, and when we reached the top, none of the four of us could walk, so we all sat on the steps, and none of us wanted to continue to walk up one more step.

Xiaoxue laughed at us, we didn't exercise all the time, and we couldn't climb a small hill, so we continued to go up with the tourists.

Now I can clearly see the whole monument, in fact, behind the standing man, there is a sculpture of a flag, due to the angle, I saw it as a pillar at first. Behind the flag, there is a circular sculpture, somewhat resembling a large pavilion without a roof.

The sculpture is supported by three large yellowed white stones, resembling a fire brace for heating in a yurt. Outside the circular sculpture, there are many patterns of military medals, and inside is a circle of murals.

The tourists standing below all tilted their heads and turned to look.

I guess the content of the mural above is nothing more than a scene of mutual assistance and love between the Soviet soldiers and the Mongolian people.

On the side of the road up the mountain, there was a falconer with a large thick glove on his hand, which had two layers, white canvas on the inside and black leather on the outside. This falconer specializes in taking pictures of his eagles and tourists to earn tickets in the pockets of tourists.

When taking pictures, he will put gloves on the hands of tourists, and the eagle will obediently land on the arms of tourists, and when taking pictures, he will also cooperate with the flashing wings, and the tourists who come and go are very satisfied.

But since we sat here, the eagle has not obeyed, and whatever the falconer told it, it came the other way around.

We only snickered on the sidelines, watching the Mongolian brother be overwhelmed by Jiang Li's beast flute.

Times are really different, the proud falcons and mighty falconers in the past have now become small traders who take pictures with passers-by and earn some money to make a living.

After the tourists had enough, we got on the bus and turned back, ate hometown food at a luxurious Chinese restaurant, and finally arrived at the hotel booked by the tour group at about 7 o'clock in the evening.

The hotel is very luxurious, it should be able to reach four stars, the outside is all covered with blue glass windows, and the shape is like a sail, similar to the Burj Al Arab Hotel in Dubai. Xiaoxue seems to have said that it is called Blue Sky Hotel, and we don't care about the name.

Xiaoxue announced the itinerary for tomorrow's visitors, including Sukhbaatar Square, the Bogdahan Museum, Ganden Monastery, and various shopping malls.

After she finished explaining, we and the tourists each got their room cards and quickly returned to the room to rest. We live on the seventeenth floor, one room with Fat Brother and I, and one room with Jiang Li and Yan Qiu.

The furnishings in the hotel are very nice, no different from the domestic luxury hotels. It's just that due to the tight hotel room, the rooms assigned to us are all double beds, and I can only squeeze one with the fat brother. Standing on a high-rise building overlooking the night view of Ulaanbaatar is also very beautiful, although the lights are not as colorful as those in the first-tier cities in China.

I stood by the window and asked the fat brother, "How will we arrange it tomorrow?" ”

The fat brother said: "Tomorrow, we won't follow the group, and we will go directly in the direction of Jiang Li." Strive to get things done quickly, after all, there is a time limit for other people's tour groups, and it is impossible to wait for the four of us in a car. ”

I agreed with the fat brother's opinion, so I called Yan Qiu and asked her and Jiang Li to come to our room to discuss the plan, and I went to Xiaoxue and explained to her, she led the group to play, and we went to do errands.

Xiaoxue's room was on the same floor as ours, and I didn't go far down the corridor before I arrived at her door. The door is not locked, I pushed the door and entered, their room is not as good as ours, it should be an ordinary standard room, there is a TV program in Mongolian in the house, it should be Xiaoxue watching TV.

Walking in, you can see that they are two single beds, and Xiaoxue is actually naked, lazy sheep lying on one of the beds, eating snacks, as if they have just taken a bath, and they still have dry hair towels wrapped around their heads.

Hearing the sound of me coming in, Xiaoxue didn't look at me, but whispered, "Coming back?" ”

I remember that since the hotel only provided a free room for the tour guide, Xiaoxue and the fat driver should have stayed in the same room.
