To talk about the method recorded in "Maoshan Secret Yao", it is called "Harrier Turning Over". This method reminds me of the story of Wang Anshi and Liu Gong's father. Someone told Wang Anshi that if the mountains and rivers were drained, there would be 10,000 acres of fertile land. Wang Anshi became worried after hearing this, and asked the historian Liu Gongfu how to deal with the water? Father Liu Gong quipped Wang Anshi and said: "This is easy, as long as you dig a pit as big as a water pool next to it, you can bring in water! What does Xiang Gong think?" It was a joke.
The reason why I thought of this story was that I really wanted to dig a hole next to the tomb to clear the quicksand. The quicksand flows from the tomb to other tunnels, which is similar to the harrier turning over in Peking opera, so it has this name.
The reason why I want to use Harrier to turn over is also reasonable. Because this tomb is in the desert, the terrain is slightly higher than the surrounding area. I pierced a ditch from the quicksand layer, and the sand will rush out from the ditch. In no time or three, the quicksand in the entire tomb can be cleaned. .
We connected the threaded steel pipe and the shovel head. I stepped on a few marks on the ground with my feet to indicate that this is the position of the shovel. The bald head first fixed the shovel head, and then started to shovel with a short-handled hammer. I put one hand on the steel pipe and felt the situation below. When I knocked one knot in total, I felt the bottom of the shovel loosened, so I said, "Yes!"
We pulled up the shovel section by section, and finally brought out a puddle of soil. The bald head forcefully removed the shovel head and walked to show us. Li and I had a look at it, and our faces turned white at the same time, even Zhengyang. Ah, too. It turned out that the sand actually contained a large amount of cinnabar, and the cinnabar and sand mixed together, like a clot of blood.
It is not surprising that cinnabar appeared in the tomb. In the tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty, cinnabar was often found at the bottom of the tomb. Cinnabar was used to drive away ghosts and evil spirits. The ancients were very superstitious. They believed that there was a kind of ghost named Fang Liang who was specialized in stealing corpses and souls. Only cinnabar could drive away. .
There is also a very evil cinnabar tomb. The function of this tomb is to suppress evil. After the tomb is completed, a layer of mellow soil on the raw soil, another layer of gypsum mud and another layer of mellow soil, and then the final sealing work is completed by mixing red clay and cinnabar. It is said that the surface of the soil of this kind of tomb will show a fascinating blood color, although it will not fade after thousands of years, if the tomb is in a humid area, it is like grabbing a handful of blood clotting. If it was rained not long ago, the whole ancient tomb would continuously seep out fine red water drops, as if it was bleeding! This is the formation principle of Changsha Biaoziling Blood Corpse Tomb.
But cinnabar was found in the quicksand tomb, that's not the case at all. The cinnabar at this time can neither exorcise evil spirits nor suppress them. This kind of tomb is extremely rare. Even the four great family of tomb robbers, only Mojin Yimen encountered a case in the Three Kingdoms period, and almost led to the extinction of Mojinmen. Too fierce!
Something like cinnabar is similar to pure Yang blood in witchcraft. Participating in the quicksand means that the blood is still flowing, so that not only the yang qi can circulate through the tomb, but the yin qi can also circulate continuously. In other words, not only the corpse but also the soul of the thing in the tomb has been sealed, and it cannot be superborn. After thousands of years of resentment, the evil spirits in the tombs have increased sharply, and cinnabar has conducted a large amount of quicksand in from the quicksand!
"Something is wrong!" I squeezed a handful of quicksand, frowning slightly. According to the records of "Maoshan Secret Yao", sticky sand means yin, and loose sand means yang. A lot of Yang Qi was obviously introduced into this quicksand. What exactly is going on? Could it be that this thing has been sealed for a thousand years without any grievances
I can't explain all of this for the time being.
According to the position where the shovel fell, draw a shovel area. The location of the quicksand layer of the tomb was roughly determined. Fortunately, it was not very deep, about seven or eight meters underground. What we need to do is to dig a ditch of about ten meters to guide the quicksand to the surrounding low-lying places.
Bald Qiang is like a veteran who has been in the hole for more than ten years. His speed is extremely fast. The three whirlwind shovel flew up and down, and he went down seven or eight meters in one fell swoop. Don't look at Li Dazui that he is skinny, but there are two brushes in the soil. After a while, he dug a ditch more than ten meters from the sand. Then seeing Li Dazui jumped up, he threw the shovel and shouted, "Finished!"
boom! boom!
Quicksand wrapped in rocks, along the channel we dug in advance, surging out like a huge wave, making an ear-splitting roar! The fine sand carried the boulder, and it took a full half an hour before the quicksand was exhausted.
Sure enough, as the quicksand drained away, a brick wall appeared under the hole. The wall was so smooth that there were no gaps. I clasped my hand and there was no echo at all. Dong Tong put a touch on his hand and cried out: "The ancient methods can't even have a gap!"
I replied, "This kind of tomb brick is a mosaic-like earth brick structure, that is, one side is concave and the other side is convex, and the two bricks fit perfectly. That's why it can be smooth as a mirror!"
"Boy, that's easy! Just pull out a brick and the structure of this wall will be destroyed!"
When I heard Zhengyang say this, I immediately became happy. This kind of wall doesn't even have a gap, how do you draw it? Use explosives? This kind of brick is used for the floor tiles of the Golden Temple in the Forbidden City, and the detonator can only blast a small hole. Just rely on a few of our physical mortals to be able to extract
Just as I was wandering around, Zhengyang touched the wall with two fingers, touching it up and down, and with a puff, a wall brick was pulled out by the root. All of us were dumbfounded, how powerful should those two fingers be
"There are still mechanisms in this brick wall, so be careful when you move and turn your head. If there is a trace of sparks, then we will be finished!"
We took a lot of effort to remove the brick wall carefully.
Sure enough, a layer of fire dragon oil was wrapped in a crispy skin. Once this thing broke, it would burn when it saw the air. We carefully buried the fire dragon oil in the sand, and then completely removed the tomb wall.
"Boy, there is a set. It's a pity that you don't become a tomb thief!" Li said coldly. I was dumbfounded. Although we are not tomb robbers, there is no difference between tomb robbers. In fact, ancient tomb thieves have used this method many times.
We walked in the tomb, and with the help of a miner's lamp, we found a burglary hole unexpectedly. The robbery hole is circular, "This is a tomb before the Tang Dynasty!" I can finally show off in front of such a birdman. Bald Qiang was delighted when he heard it, "Okay, you kid! Tell me to Master Qiang, how do you see that he is from before Tang?" In this respect, I'm familiar with every family, and I'm naturally not humble. "Before Tang Tombs are often vertical tombs. The so-called vertical tombs are digging holes from the ground, supporting them with stone bars above the tomb, and then covering them with sealing soil. The soil of this tomb is very thick, and there are only circular robbing holes. It was enough to bear it. After the Tang Dynasty, the tombs were often cut on the hills, and the soil was thick, so square caves were dug. Yuandong can only climb into it, and square caves can walk in. So the imprint of the era of robbery is obvious!"
"There is such a great knowledge here? It really is like a mountain! My Li Dazui has convinced you!"
"Brother Li, the knowledge in this has grown. We moved Shanlishi, which is considered to be the least knowledgeable among the four big families, and there is a full three thousand pages of mystery!"
"What about those who robbed holes?"
"I'm all dead!" Dong Tong said coldly. I had a good impression of her before. I thought it was a casual little girl. However, after contacting her for a few days, I discovered that this girl is not only indifferent, but also quite belly. black. Sure enough, we followed the thieves, and there were seven or eight thieves in a radius along the way. "Fuck! There is actually an old man machine!" Li Dazui exclaimed, I think he is so unremarkable, he is almost suffocated! That mobile phone was a popular style ten years ago, which means that this tomb has been visited by a tomb thief once in the last ten years!
"Do you dare to steal this tomb?" Zhengyang seemed to mutter to himself.
Soon, the pirate hole changed from a circle to a triangle, and the Populus euphratica wooden frame was densely supported, and we continued to walk inside with our cat. The bald head was at the forefront, and it didn't take long for him to yell "Fuck! Ghost!" It is reasonable to say that people like bald head are also involved in many weird incidents, so they won't be so yelling.
I saw a few people lying on the ground arrogantly, completely skeletonized, and from their bodies, we could vaguely see that they had experienced a fierce battle before them. All of the spine bones of these people were broken and they were twisted alive. One of them had five holes in his skull, as if it had been inserted by five fingers.
The death of those few people was too terrifying, no wonder Brother Qiang would scream like this. According to reason, his courage should be one of the best among us. It's not that he is a bullshit in his heart, or that this thing is too scary. We paused and observed these people carefully. It was a bit terrifying and crippling. To be honest, if I didn't help but let me see it, I would scream, even louder than he screamed.
After coming over for a while, I carefully observed the surroundings, and in my mind roughly guessed how these people died. Needless to say, these people must be tomb robbers. They escaped the quicksand and dug up from the bottom of the tomb into the tomb. Encountered something unclean in the tomb, was driven to the tunnel by that thing, and then was bent to death. Thinking of this, I don't feel the cold sweat, my face turns green.
The whole person was so scared, and after a long time of work, my chest became stuffy!
In addition to the bite of the sand mallet on my shoulder, its poison gas exploded. My eyes went dark and I passed out into a coma! Two eyelids were fighting up and down, and a dark shadow was vaguely seen, drifting past the tunnel. That is by no means any one of the five of us. I didn't have time to think about it, and the thing disappeared in a flash.
What is that thing? After all, I didn't resist the poison gas and passed out in a coma! (To be continued) (End of this chapter)
