Chapter 34 Excavation of the Ruins of the Terracotta Warriors (1)
It is suspected that the official kiln site of Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty is in Liucunbao Township, Weiyang District, Xi'an, which is one of the six districts of the main city of Xi'an.
It is separated from Xianyang by a river, and the southwest is connected with the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
Weiyang District is taken from Weiyang Palace, the palace of the Han Dynasty in the territory, which means "prosperity and prosperity, endless and endless".
In history, there are 11 dynasties such as Qin, Han and Tang dynasties that built the capital of Weiyang, and there are many ancient relics, the area is large, and the value ranks first in the country.
When Yang Xiuwen arrived in the unit's car, he found that it was like a large construction site, with a lot of people.
I saw it by eye, it was about 100 meters long and 50 or 60 meters wide, and it was painted with a white grid.
He put on a straw hat, mask, and gloves to enter the scene, and soon found Zhao Guodong.
Zhao Guodong was very happy to see him and said, "Okay, your kid is here, your Uncle Qian just left, hahaha." The old rules, follow me. ”
Yang Xiuwen was assigned to an area and began the excavation of the site.
The excavation of the ruins is different from the excavation of ancient tombs, and you don't need to be too careful, just dig under the imprint of the former building.
Yang Xiuwen's area is at the exit of the kiln.
He first looked at it with his heavenly eyes, and a meter down, there were fragments of terracotta figurines.
So I didn't hesitate to do it.
The staff in the side area were stunned, what kind of operation is this, not afraid of hurting the cultural relics of the site.
Soon the small area was neatly cleared, and the bulldozers in charge of his area were tired and sweaty.
I muttered in my heart, it's too fast, I can't keep up.
Seeing this, Yang Xiuwen said, "Master, take advantage of the cool now, work for a while, and we will rest as soon as the weather is hot." ”
Sure enough, after a while, he directly announced that he would rest and stop digging. At this time, his area was thirty centimeters deeper than the others.
At this time, he began to wander around each area, and saw the layout of the entire kiln site through the eye of the sky.
During the Western Han Dynasty, thick burials were popular throughout the country, and terracotta figurines were widely used for burials.
There are many differences in the firing of terracotta figurines, at first they are dressed terracotta figurines, and then they feel that they are not enough to be imaged and solemn, so they are changed to naked maids. The site is divided into earthen mills, mud mills, maid mills, drying workshops, glazing workshops, firing kilns, figurines workshops, and abandoned yards.
He is now the head of logistics of the archaeological team of the site, and everyone has obtained it.
Because every day in addition to digging the ruins, he also has time to bring water to everyone.
No, he came to Zhao Guodong's area again, brought him tea, handed him a wet towel, took the small shovel in his hand, and began to clean up the soil.
Zhao Guodong took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Minister Yang, aren't you busy?" Yang Xiuwen stopped what he was doing and smiled bitterly: "Uncle Zhao, can we talk well." Ay. ”
Zhao Guodong laughed and said, "It's not your own work, archaeological work pays attention to coordination, you are good, you ride the dust, and you will give me an honest step-by-step in the future." ”
What can Yang Xiuwen say, he can only agree.
Since then, he has remained consistent with the progress of the working group and devoted himself to cultivation.
He found that by operating the heart technique, he was able to release the aura.
At the beginning, it is the hand, and the aura reaches the inner guan and the Lao palace through the meridians, and the middle rush forms a layer of aura on the surface of the palm.
It seems that the handle of the shovel is held in the hand, but in fact, it is like a magnetic levitation without contact.
This discovery made him excited, why, because if it succeeds, then it can be applied to the feet.
That's the legendary snow treading without a trace.
It was uncomfortable at first, but after a week of adaptation, it is now handy.
Whether you are holding a teacup or carrying a lunch box, you wear gloves throughout the whole process in order not to let others find out.
Starting today, he controlled the aura to his feet.
First to the committee, Heyang, Tayang, Kunlun, Kinmen and finally arrived at Yongquan, for a time the soles of the feet were extremely itchy.
Forcibly and slowly released the aura from the Yongquan acupoint, and the itch disappeared.
It was like stepping on a soft ball under his feet, rolling around.
In order not to let himself fall, he grabbed the handle of the shovel with both hands and propped it on the ground, his feet swaying, and his buttocks were still pouting.
The staff next to me were about to go crazy laughing.
He himself felt indecent, and smiled awkwardly...
Fortunately, he had a day's appearance, and in the evening, he was able to evenly distribute the aura on the surface of his feet, not staggering.
Thirteen days have passed since the site was cleaned up, and the rough outline is still visible.
Yang Xiuwen suddenly stopped digging, turned his head and shouted at Zhao Guodong, "Uncle Zhao, come here and find out." ”
Zhao Guodong rushed over when he heard the sound and saw that fragments of terracotta figurines appeared on the surface of the soil layer, which seemed to be body parts.
He crouched down, picked up a brush and gently swept away the loess, and a crushed terracotta figurine was cleaned out.
The terracotta figurines were gently put together to form a complete terracotta figurine's body, and it can be seen that the terracotta figurines should be painted with lacquer.
Zhao Guodong was very excited, and shouted to the surrounding work area, "Comrades, the terracotta figurines have appeared, from now on, give up the shovel and use a small shovel instead, be careful." ”
After finishing speaking, he squatted down again, looked at the terracotta figurines and said, "Xiuwen, do you know, this is a major discovery, according to my judgment of this terracotta figurines, it should be the same as the lacquer-clothed nude figurines buried in the Emperor Mausoleum of Hanyang Mausoleum. ”
