"Sudden Sudden Sudden Sudden ......"

The drill bit penetrates the sand layer and goes straight into the ground.

One meter at a time, after nine times the drill pipe was connected, the drill bit drilled through the top of the tomb and entered the tomb.

Unloading the drill rig and lifting the drill pipe, leaving only a stainless steel pipe with a diameter of about two centimeters.

"Collect gas samples!"

"Teacher Li, the oxygen content is six percent!"

"Team Leader Yao, do a good job of sealing and preventing oxygen, Team Xing, get off the camera!"

Xing Feng nodded, and went down the endoscope along the steel tube.

Li Dingan opened the laptop, hula, and surrounded him.

No one spoke, and they all stared at the tomb tightly.

The lens is small, about a centimeter long, but the clarity is very high. The outer ring is covered with dot-shaped laser heads, including the connecting fibers, which reflect the stainless steel tube wall, and the computer screen is bright and dazzling.

But it didn't take long for the screen to dim:

Zuo Peng's eyelids jumped: "The line is broken?" ”

"It's not a broken line!"

Ma Xianming explained in a low voice: "This is because the lens entered the lightless environment and the light suddenly diffused!" ”

"The camera is in the room?"

"Nine times out of ten......"

"Look, there's a wall?"

"And the frescoes...... Eighty percent is the main burial chamber! ”

"Haha...... Look, there are stone tools ......"

A bunch of people were excited, Li Dingan clicked the mouse and slowly turned the camera.

The tomb wall is very high, about five meters, directly to the top of the tomb, very long, at least ten or twenty meters.

In the middle is a false door, with murals on the left and right, which are very well preserved, only the corners are bare with blue bricks.

The camera zooms in to see where the mural is peeling off: yellow mud is plastered under the white ash, and there is a compartment in the middle of the yellow mud, and there are green bricks underneath.

From this, we can know the structure of the tomb wall: it is made of blue bricks, wrapped in two layers of yellow clay, then wrapped in white ash, and then painted.

The patterns are clear and the colors are bright: the red sun hangs high, the green grass is like a blanket, and a healthy horse gallops with its hooves raised.

The general of the horse was dressed in a robe on the left side, his hair was combed (the top and back of his head were shaved, leaving only the top of his eyebrows and the sides of his ears, which were braided), and his upper body was half-subdued, and he wanted to shoot with a bow.

There are still servants around, but most of them are blurred, so it can be inferred that nine out of ten are the owners of the tombs.

But Li Ding'an felt a little strange: first, his hair.

After the sinicization of Liao Taizong (the son of Abaoji), the Khitan people kept their hair regardless of gender, so this hairstyle only existed in the Abaoji period or earlier.

The second is to wear gold flowers on the braid.

This is an ornament only worn by the early Khitan nobles, and only the Nine Tents Khan of the Yaoran clan can wear it.

Roughly before Abaoji established the country, the Khitan nine tribal alliances, and the Xiao family was also one of the nine accounts, but at that time, it was not given the surname Xiao by Abaoji, and it was called the Bali clan.

If it is inferred from this, this tomb should have been built before the founding of Abaoji.

Of course, it may have been painted in memory of the ancestors......

After thinking about it, Li Ding'an zoomed out the camera a little further, and suddenly, two big horses broke into the camera!

Not the one in the mural, but the stone horse, standing on both sides of the tomb door. Looking at the body shape, it is completely carved in imitation of the size of a real horse.

Tomb beasts are very common, from the war to the Republic of China, but most of them are tigers, lions, leopards, or mythical beasts, but with the stone horse tomb, it is really the first time to see it.

The key is that the harness is too complete, with saddles, stirrups, halters, panniers, and even horse chews, orators (pronounced biao, horse chewing outside), mud barriers (leather covering the soil at the lower part of the saddle), chest straps, straps, and so on.

I feel that everything that can be worn on a horse is no different. There are many ornaments, and there are various shapes: there are peach shapes, ruyi shapes, rings, circles, and beast shapes such as tigers, leopards, and pixius.

It is covered with dust, and it is not possible to see the specific material, but it can be inferred: after a thousand years, it has not decayed, and there is no trace of rust, then it is definitely not wood or iron, and copper.

If it weren't for gold and silver, it could only be jade...... A rough count shows that there are at least a hundred ornaments on the two horses.

Li Ding'an turned the camera angle again: there are Ming utensils under the tomb wall, and the shape of the utensils is very miscellaneous, there are bowls, cups, bottles, pots and cans, which are also full of dust.

The texture cannot escape copper, iron and porcelain.

The camera rises and then rotates left and right, and it can be seen that the burial chamber is large: but there are only burial goods underground, and there are no coffins.

There is a tomb passage in the distance, and there are murals on both walls.

Roughly you can only see so much, at first glance, it seems normal, but the more Li Dingan looks, the more he feels incongruous:

One is the hair, the second is the gold ornaments, and the third is the left robe, all of which belong to the Abaoji period or earlier.

But the ornaments on the stone horse, as well as the Ming utensils in the front room, are all products of Liao Taizong (the son of Yelu Abaoji) after the sinicization.

In particular, the thin-necked bottle and the cockscomb pot, which were created by the craftsmen of the Ding kiln in Hebei Province after the annexation of the Liao Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty, combined the white porcelain craft with the Khitan culture, and were not formed until the grandson of Liao Taizong, that is, Xiao Yanyan.

There is a gap of hundreds of years between the two......

After thinking about it, without a clue, Li Dingan closed the computer:

"This is the Frontrooms, and the coffin or bones should be in the Backrooms, and possibly the Middle Rooms...... Xing team, three meters to the east, miss the hole in the tomb wall, the depth is still nine meters, pay attention to the sealing ......"

"Understood!"

Immediately, the drilling rig sounded again, and after about half an hour, the speculum went down to the burial chamber.

Suddenly, everyone's eyes widened: nearly 400 square meters, it was actually stuffed impermeable?

There are many burial goods: bottles and jars, stone sheep and stone tigers, and fierce unicorns...... But it's all on all four sides.

Looking at the middle again, it can simply brighten people's eyes: hundreds of stone people and stone horses, all life-size, the key is: people and horses are armored?

Although it is rusty, you can still see the exquisiteness of the forging.

Zuo Pengxiao's teeth came out: The Qin Emperor's Mausoleum is just a pottery maid, and it is actually carved in stone?

It's just carved in stone, and it's still armored?

Armour!

Don't talk about it, I've never heard of it.

I knew that there was such a strange thing, and what kind of stone piles were dug ......

He rubbed his hands excitedly and pricked up his ears again:

"Old Ma, this tomb is very strange!"

"It's a bit weird, it feels like time and space are separated? And it's the first time I've seen so much armor with so much armor? ”

One top three crossbows, three top three into the underworld.

This is a smooth sentence on the Internet, but it is not a casual fabrication by netizens: from the Han Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, more than three pairs of armor were privately hidden, and they were all punished as rebellion.

Also includes the Liao Dynasty.

What's more, is it hundreds of pairs, or is it a complete armor?

If you want to say that this is not a preparation for a rebellion, Li Ding'an didn't believe it when he was killed: Li Shimin captured the Xuanwu Gate with a hundred armor soldiers, and Nurhachi started with thirteen pairs of armor...... There aren't too many similar examples.

This is not the first case of burying armor in the tomb and waiting for an opportunity to rebel: the famous Western Han Dynasty general Zhou Yafu and his son did it. As a result, Zhou Yafu was starved to death by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che......

But this is not the strangest place, but the middle of the burial chamber, in the middle of the hundred armor: a high brick platform with a huge stone coffin on it.

"Khitan burials, never coffins, including the emperor...... But here, it's such a big bottle? It's so weird......"

Zuo Peng was even more excited: It's weird......
