About 150 miles west from Xi'an, is Qianxian County.

Because there is Qianling, there is Qianxian.

The Tang Dynasty burial system is "because the mountain is the mausoleum", and the mausoleum is built on the mountain with the trend of "dragon pan phoenix".

Qianling is located in Liangshan, ten miles north of Qianxian County, because it is located in the northwest of Xi'an, in the direction of the Qiangua in the five elements of the eight trigrams, so it is named Qianling.

There are three peaks in Liangshan, one north and two south, among which the north peak is the highest, and Qianling is on the top of the abrupt and lonely north peak.

The two peaks in the south face each other from east to west, and there is a Sima Road in the middle, and there are two water belts of the Swill River and the Moshui River on the left and right, and the momentum is very majestic.

Looking up at the Qianling Tomb from the bottom of the mountain, you can feel the glorious atmosphere that has passed through thousands of years.

It was the sixth month of the lunar calendar, and the sun was fierce, but the vegetation of Qianling was luxuriant, and it was still a little cool, and it was not scorching.

Although it is not the peak season, along the Shinto Road that winds up from the castle gate, you can see more or less tourists gathering from time to time, climbing the stairs.

"I can't believe it, Wu Zetian is sleeping in this mountain, this is the only female emperor in our country for thousands of years." Someone craned their necks and sighed.

The tour guide in front corrected: "This is not rigorous, Qianling is the joint tomb of Tang Gaozong Li Zhi and Wu Zetian." It's just that Wu Zetian is too famous, so Li Zhi's name is not obvious. ”

"With such a wife, Li Zhi must be very hard, right? After death, they will be crushed. ”

The tourist said solemnly.

"I really can't answer this tourist's question, because I haven't married such a wife, and I haven't died, I really don't know."

The guide's exaggerated remarks caused a burst of laughter in the crowd.

……

Chang Xian slowly followed behind the crowd, with a relaxed face.

He is a department head of the Xi'an project department of Jinmen Xingchen Company, and the project passed the acceptance of Party A on time two days ago, and the project department is ready to withdraw to Tianjin in a few days.

The Qianling Tomb is known as the "Three Gorges Project" in the archaeological circles among the imperial tombs of the Chinese dynasties. As a top student of the History Department of Nankai University, it is a good choice to travel to Qianling at this time.

Standing on the Liangshan Shinto Road and looking at Xi'an, Chang Xian felt a kind of intimacy between the Qin bricks and Han tiles, and the heavy momentum accumulated over thousands of years seemed to call for the ancient roots of the Chinese descendants hidden deep in the blood.

In contrast, although the capital is also an ancient capital, the style is subtly different.

The atmosphere of the capital is modern, and it is a radiant Gongbi painting; The temperament of Xi'an, but it seems to be looking at people from a different world, like an ancient bronze, the pulp has been polished by the years to be round and heavy, shining with a deep and deep light.

Chang Xian closed his eyes, raised his head, and took a deep breath, wanting to feel this ancient and vast breath.

……

The tour guide held a small red flag and explained as he walked ahead.

"When the Qianling Tomb was built, it was in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the national strength was abundant, the scale was large, the building was majestic and magnificent, and it could be called the crown of the emperors' tombs in the past dynasties.

Originally, there were two inner and outer cities and four gates, and there were more than 300 buildings such as the sacrificial hall, the Que Tower, the ancestral hall, the lower palace, etc., at both ends of the Shinto, but now there are only the stone statues of Weng Zhong at both ends of the Shinto and the wordless stone tablet. Travelers who have watched "Detective Di Renjie" may know better than me......"

"What is a wordless stele?"

"There are two stone tablets on the top of the Qianling, the one on the west side is the Shusheng Ji tablet of Tang Gaozong, and the one on the west side is the tablet of Wu Zetian. Generally, the stele should be full of words, singing praises or something, but Wu Zetian's stele is particularly strange, there is not a word on it. ”

"Why did Wu Zetian erect a wordless monument for himself? Do you feel like you have nothing to say? ”

"I don't know about this again, but there have been many sayings, some say that Wu Zetian thinks that women should not be called emperors, so he doesn't dare to set up a monument to leave a message, and some say that Wu Zetian thinks that his merits are too great, and there is no need to set up a monument to pass ......."

Listening to the questions and answers between the tourists in front of her and the tour guide, Chang Xian stopped, thought about it seriously, and said to herself softly: "I think she should have a clear conscience about the path she chose, and she is not afraid of the evaluation of future generations, so she calmly left the stele there." ”

"In fact, it should be like this, just be worthy of your life, as long as you don't go against your heart, even if you insist on something that others seem stupid, why bother with the name behind you? Who is qualified to judge her? ”

……

The tour guide guides the crowd to walk slowly, sometimes climbing up to take a look, sometimes going downhill to find the ancients, and stopping and stopping.

Often idle in the back, the cool mountain breeze blows occasionally, the shadow of the mountain trees is everywhere, occasionally you will see an ancient monument, a broken wall, and feel that the valley is deep, and the heart is full of wonderful feelings.

"Everyone has been walking for a while, and I'm a little tired, I'll tell you something I know, to refresh everyone, okay?"

The tour guide stopped, raised the little red flag, and said with a smile: "There are natural enemies in everything, and when you arrive in this land of Sanqin, everyone knows a common saying, if you want to be rich, have fewer children and rob more tombs, right?" ”

"That is, the past few steps are Luoyang, who doesn't know Luoyang shovel!"

As soon as this matter is mentioned, the masses of the people will have the spirit.

The tour guide haha and said: "The ancients paid attention to "death is like life", and those emperors still wanted to enjoy the luxury of life when they arrived below, so they often had a large number of treasures hidden in their tombs, which would naturally be flocked to by many tomb robbers. ”

"Speaking of which, over the past thousand years, there have been many stolen imperial tombs, but there are three exceptions."

The tour guide sold a pass and asked, "Who knows which three?" ”

As soon as the tour guide's voice fell, someone replied: "I don't know anything else, the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang must be yes!" ”

"Yes, what else?"

Seeing that no one could talk about it, the tour guide said: "Of the three imperial tombs, one is the tomb robber does not dare to steal, and that is the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang that this tourist said." ”

"One is something that tomb robbers can't find, and that's the Mausoleum of Genghis Khan on the steppe. What about the other one? ”

The tour guide stepped on Liangshan under his feet and said: "There is another one that is not stolen by tomb robbers, and that is the Qianling Tomb in front of us." ”

"Why can't you steal it? Did someone steal it? ”

Tourists asked with great interest, the emperor and tomb robbers are quite mysterious, and together they are even more gimmicks.

"Has anyone stolen it? You take it back, it's too much for someone to steal. ”

The tour guide is a serious way.

"Qianling is famous for not being afraid of thieves, for more than a thousand years, there have been too many crooked thoughts, but Qianling has never been stolen!"

"At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Huang Chao used 400,000 soldiers to dig up the Qianling Tomb, 400,000 people, what is this concept? We don't have that many people in a county. So many people dug a ditch more than 40 meters deep, but they did not find the entrance to the tomb. ”

Ooh! Tourists gasped as they thought about the scene.

"You may say, there are a lot of them in the Yellow Nest, but it won't be long. That's long. ”

"In the fifth generation, there was a turtle grandson named Wen Tao. This grandson was an envoy in this place, and if he didn't do anything, he organized the army to dig up the imperial tomb of the Tang Dynasty. From Li Shimin's Zhaoling to his descendants, it was all planed and planed. ”

The tour guide's words made the crowd explode, and there is still such a thing in feelings, I have never heard of it!

Chang Xian's face sank like water, shaking his head and saying nothing.

Those who study history know that Wen Tao is the ancestor of the tomb robbers, known as the "thief saint", this one lacks great virtue, and with his sins, he has been merciful for three thousand years.

The tour guide drank saliva and continued: "You want to ask Wen Tao how long he has been digging?" Seven years! In the past seven years, Wen Tao has stolen almost all the tombs of the Tang Emperor, but every time he is ready to attack the Qianling, there is lightning and thunder in the sky, and there is a storm. ”

"Who is Wen Tao? He was not afraid of this, and continued to do it, and the second time was lightning and thunder, and the storm was raging. For the third time, it's still like this. At this moment, even if Wen Tao is bold, the soldiers below are also weak, who dares to move! In this way, even if it is Wen Tao, the turtle grandson, there is no way to take Qianling. ”

Without waiting for the tourists to raise the bar, the tour guide continued: "You will definitely say that it is the guy in their hands who can't do anything, how is it in modern times." Let me tell you this, in modern times, it's not very good! ”

"When he arrived in the Republic of China, the warlord Sun Lianzhong saw that the Tanglin thief Sun Dianying had obtained a large number of treasures by digging up the tombs of Cixi and Qianlong, and his eyes were red, so he followed Sun Dianying's example, and under the guise of protecting the Qianling Tomb, he announced that he was going to conduct military exercises and sent a division of troops to try to steal and excavate the Qianling."

However, no matter whether they used artillery, explosives or manpower to excavate, they could not find the tomb door of the Qianling. Later, it suddenly rained heavily, and it didn't stop for several days and nights, and it was rumored in the army that Wu Zetian was angry, and the soldiers no longer dared to do anything. Sun Lianzhong had no choice but to withdraw his troops. Tell me, how can this be explained? ”

The voice of the guide seemed to be a little mysterious: "We all know that science can't explain everything, and some people are willing to interpret this matter from the perspective of metaphysics." There are two feng shui masters in our history, one is called Yuan Tiangang and the other is called Li Chunfeng, have you heard of it? ”

"It's to write "Push. The one of the backs? ”

In the crowd, Master Arino said.

"Yes, that's him."

The tour guide nodded to the praise, and then said: "Tang Gaozong Li Zhi has always had a long-cherished wish, that is, to be buried in Chang'an after death. So they sent Yuan and Li to find a suitable piece of auspicious soil near Chang'an, and Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng each chose a direction, starting from Chang'an City and visiting Sanqin. ”

Yuan Tiangang first found a piece of feng shui treasure land and buried a copper coin at the dragon's eye. Immediately afterwards, Li Chunfeng also found a treasure land and drove a nail at the dragon's eye. It turned out that the two of them were the same, and they both chose Liangshan. ”

"Liangshan Mountain faces each other across Wushui and Jiuzhi Mountain, and there is lacquer water in the west to connect with Loujing Mountain and Qishan Mountain, gathering wind and water. And at the dragon's eye, the nail that Li Chunfeng nailed happened to pass through the center hole of Yuan Tiangang's copper coin. This is the famous 'gold needle through copper coin'! ”

"it! It's kind of interesting! ”

The crowd erupted in amazement.

He often reads history, and this story is also one of the topics of conversation between classmates when he was in college, and he listens to the tour guide's colorful storytelling, and has no intention of participating.

I saw a stone tablet standing next to the road in front of me, engraved with the poem "No word tablet, who stands up?" Li Xitang, Zhou Xiwu. Thousands of years of grievances are tied to a piece of soil, and the remaining sons of the Tang family are insufficient, and this meaning is obscure in Khotan. ”

This is Yonghuai Wu Zetian, calligraphy from Yan Zhenqing to start, and He Shaoji, Weng Tongyi two two things, with the pen subtle and simple, unique style, is the contemporary Shaanxi Mr. Chen Shaomo's handwriting.

Often idle love calligraphy, and love this poem, can't help but see the joy of hunting, strolling forward, stretching out his finger along the stone tablet carvings began to copy.

"Li Xitang......, hiss!"

When the word "Tang" came to the bottom of the stele, it was already the bottom of the stele, and his fingers touched a lump on the ground, although the lump was small, but somehow, a burst of abnormal pain made Chang Xian wake up from the artistic conception of calligraphy.

With a muffled snort, he clearly looked at a cut on his finger, and blood seeped out at once.

A green copper coin phantom with an inexplicable breath rushed straight to his mind along his fingers, and he was often idle and unbearable, and passed out.

"Sir, sir...... are you alright...... Mr. ......"

Chang Xian seemed to hear the tour guide running over and shouting, and seemed to see a Taoist priest, with brown on the top and clothes on the bottom, covered with a coat, rich and chic, and the air was magnificent, fluttering with a dusty surface, and the man chanted: "The golden wind has not moved the cicada to feel first......
