Chapter 16

that hear everything. If an emergency situation arises, they can handle it.To the southwest of Shun De Shun Feng Shan Park, there's a small gully. Locals call it Fei E Mountain. The old timers say the..."Missing Lost your head! How could a living person just disappear!" It took me a while to recover.

Wang and Sun Laosan's faces were grim, looking preoccupied.

Old Sun San recounted the events in a halting, disjointed manner.

Compared to the East Ear Chamber, the West Ear Chamber hadn't yielded anything significant. Lao Er Sun felt uneasy about this and so, when they worked at night, they split up. Lao Er Sun speculated that there might be a hidden underground chamber beneath the West Ear Chamber, where all those bronze and jade artifacts could be buried.

Sun Lao San was still relatively calm. He immediately joked with his second brother, saying, "I think you, second brother, are completely obsessed."

The expert made deductions about the strange occurrence. He firmly believed that the main burial chamber and coffin wouldn't have disappeared out of thin air. His guess was that, due to earthquakes and years of water seepage, the main burial chamber had collapsed. Therefore, he thought this Western Zhou tomb's main chamber should still be buried underground, making this a "tomb within a tomb" situation, significantly increasing the difficulty.

What is a burial chamber within a tomb

This kind of situation isn't uncommon, especially in areas with frequent earthquakes throughout history. To put it simply, it's a natural disaster evolving.

The main burial chamber has collapsed and sunk, with a depth and location that are completely unpredictable. Finding it requires six parts luck and four parts skill.

Recently, the Sanxingdui site suddenly became popular. For those who don't know, the Sanxingdui civilization ruins were discovered by a national archaeological team in the 1930s. After years of excavation, they still missed several large pits. They just didn't find them... until recently when they were accidentally discovered.

This example is a typical case where an earthquake, a natural disaster, caused the burial pits to be severely displaced, becoming tombs within tombs. Therefore, only people born after 2000 and after 1990 have had the good fortune of witnessing the unearthing of the ancient Shu Kingdom's golden masks.

Sun Lao Er disappeared in the pit and also disappeared in the West Ear Room. Who knows if he fell into some hidden black hole, or maybe some kind of trapdoor. Sun Lao Er's life and death are unknown. As older brothers, Lao Da and Lao San definitely have to find him.

To the living, one must see them alive. To the dead, one must see their body.

They all stayed up all night. Several times, Sun Lao San became agitated and said he wanted to go into the tomb alone to find people, but Wang Ba Tou stopped him each time.

Wang said, "Third Brother, as the leader of our team, I'm even more anxious than you about Second Brother's disappearance. But that doesn't mean we should act recklessly! Third Brother, you've always been calm. Tell me, how many times have people in our line of work encountered this kind of situation and ended up with trouble"

So, Third Brother, we still need to call for help.

”

"Huh Asking for help" I asked curiously, "Calling the head, could it be that we need to call the police Have the police find Big Brother"

Wang glared at me: "Yunfeng, did a donkey kick your head Report to the police Do you want to spend ten years eating gruel in jail"

Being scolded, I stammered and couldn't refute.

Wang said we shouldn't interfere. He claimed he had called for backup and specifically instructed me to keep an eye on Sun Laosan, making sure he didn't sneak away from the tomb alone. He assured me that reinforcements would arrive soon.

I didn't sleep well last night. This morning, I was brushing my teeth in the yard and didn't see a single mole on that woman. I wonder where she went.

"Yúnfēng, you go out and buy a steamer of xiaolongbao for Third Brother, and bring back a bowl of hot pot soup," I suddenly heard Sun Lao San's voice behind me.

Spitting out the mouthwash, I turned to him and said, "No way, Third Brother. You have to keep your head facing me. You can't leave until he shows up with his accomplices."

Sun Lao San's face turned red and then pale.

"Damn it!" He kicked over the trash can in the yard.

In the morning, I was like a bodyguard, following him everywhere. I strictly carried out my task of keeping an eye on him and made sure he didn't sneak away to look for people.

I never thought a man would cry. I saw that Sun Lao San was crying in the room, lying on the table and mumbling something. No matter where you are, Second Brother, you must hold on. Second Brother, you will definitely be fine.

> At around three o'clock in the afternoon, two people arrived at the hotel, a man and a woman. The man was wearing sunglasses and had a crew cut. He was thin and wiry. The woman looked to be in her thirties, with a cold expression on her face.

After I saw him, he introduced me and said, "Yunfeng, meet you, this is the Yao siblings. They are famous on the road, with a deep family background. Their uncle is a renowned figure in our line of work, Master Yao."

At that time, I just felt that this man and woman were amazing because their aura was different. At the time, I didn't know who Mr. Yao, who told me about it, was. I only had the chance to meet Mr. Yao a few times later.

This person was a strange man. He was also born with his head in his eyes, but his final outcome wasn't very good.

If you're interested, you can search for "Yao Shiye" on Baidu. His tomb-robbing stories could fill a book! I know more about him than you do. If we were to talk about him alone, it would take us three days and three nights.

King brought these two people here mainly because of the woman.

That woman studied international archaeology abroad, and she knows a lot about the mechanisms, traps, diamond-sealed doors, quicksand skyfire flipboards, etc., in the tomb. Her skills could be very helpful to us.

Don't think I'm telling you a fairy tale. Most people just haven't seen them. The traps and mechanisms in those large tombs, the stone slabs that flip, the quicksand pits, they are all real, and many of them still work perfectly today.

Give two examples of large tombs from real life that have good anti-theft measures.

The Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang had a river of mercury, and a mound of earth unseen in the world. It was one hundred and fifty meters high. Two thousand years later, the level of mercury in the soil under Mount Li is still over three hundred times higher than normal. This is how they protected the tomb from thieves. In ancient times, people didn't have anti-toxic face masks. Once a tomb robber dug into the tomb, he would be poisoned within five minutes.

I'm talking about Qianling, the tomb of Wu Zetian and Gaozong. To this day, I believe Qianling is the best-protected imperial tomb in history, even surpassing the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang in Lishan Mountain.

Who wouldn't want to step into the Ganling

Let's not beat around the bush, as for Wang Xizhi's Lanting Preface, eighty percent of it is said to be inside Emperor Li Zhi's coffin. Whoever can get into it, well, let me tell you, their descendants for thirty generations won't have to worry about food and clothing!

The problem is that it really won't go in....

The imperial tomb of Qianling spans across Mount Yueshan and Mount Li. On a night when I was twenty-four, I secretly went to have a look at it.

If you stand on the top of Laushan Mountain and look out on a day when there are stars, if you look closely, you'll see that the shape of Laushan and Liangshen mountains perfectly aligns with the Big Dipper in the sky. What is this called

According to Feng Shui, this is called the Eternal Longevity Domain!

It is said that Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng drew the maps of the Qianling Mausoleum. These two men were geomancers and also served as officials in charge of astronomy, fortune-telling, national protection, and disaster mitigation under Wu Zetian. They were high-ranking officials in the Qintianzhang (Imperial Observatory).

In history, there have been over seventy recorded instances of tomb robbers attempting to loot the Qianling Mausoleum, seventeen of which are particularly well-known.

The military governor Wen Tao led three camps of soldiers to dig up the Ganling tomb. That day, it happened to rain heavily with thunder and lightning, and dozens of people were struck dead by lightning.

The rebel army led by Huang Chao, lacking military pay, dispatched 400,000 soldiers with hoes to dig up the tombs of Liangshan. As a result, they dug up half of Liangshan but didn't find a single thing. To this day, there is still what is known as Huangchao ditch in that area.

This is called being as solid as gold.imer's and can't move half his body, just sitting in a wheelchair!"Xiao Zhu's head shook sadly. "Thirteen years ago, ever since the Vice Chairman took control, the once formidable Changchun Hui has ne...
