Chapter 739 The Secret Under the Pile (Part 2)
Chapter 739 The secret under the pile (Part 2)
After listening to my analysis, Zhang Xinya had a general understanding of the situation underground at Tang Jinghan's construction site. After thinking for a while, she asked me: "You mean...if we drill down that well, we will definitely be able to find the craftsman who was there."
The secret passage dug for escape, along this secret passage, we can enter the tomb unimpeded?"
"Theoretically, there is no problem, but it is difficult to do this. It is as difficult as going to the sky. I have no way to make this decision. I will have to discuss it with Master and the others after I go back before I can make an action plan.
.”
I sighed and murmured: "Liu Quji was from the Western Han Dynasty. His tomb was built two thousand years ago. The escape tunnels dug by those craftsmen were about the same age. After all, they were just craftsmen who did not know any advanced underground palace construction techniques.
, it can be imagined that the secret passage was a hole dug under the soil. To put it bluntly, if it did not collapse during the digging, it would be considered as smoke coming out of the ancestral tomb. However, it turned out that the underground water veins were dug, and the groundwater flushed, and now
No one can tell exactly what it looks like. It may have been a mess long ago, or it may be that the various pressure values have maintained a delicate balance and still exist. Without knowing anything about it, the risk of jumping is too great.
Furthermore, do you think the profession of water ghost is so easy to do? The pile shaft is too deep, and it is full of mud. The pressure is too great. Once you touch it, it will be dark. People without professional training cannot do it, like us.
Like this... if you go down thirty or forty meters, you will go crazy.
There is also a third point. Things like giant corpses will form a nest as soon as they appear. If you encounter them on land, that's fine. But if you encounter them underwater, they will swarm up overwhelmingly. Even if the Celestial Master is caught off guard, you will have to eat them.
Big losses and explanations are possible inside.
With these three things in mind, if we don't think of a way to deal with it, that pile well will be a gate of hell for us, and there will be no return."
After saying this, I pondered for a moment and then said: "If possible, I think the best way is to find the tomb from the surface, and then find the key point and shovel it directly to our destination. This is the right way.
, but it’s too difficult. Who knows which direction the craftsmen dug when they escaped, and how far they dug to find the underground water veins? If you can’t determine this, the chance of finding the tomb is slim! A map ripped from the back of a dead man.
Going up to that mountain is too abrupt, there is no clear surface, and there are countless mountains standing in the forest area. Trying to find the shape of the mountain is like looking for a needle in a haystack, but relying on observing mountains and water, you can find the acupoints by dividing the gold.
, but I don’t have much hope. The map obtained from the Shuanglong spitting bead pot can confirm that the landform has changed too much in ancient and modern times. The old Feng Shui treasure land may not be the Feng Shui treasure land now. The so-called Feng Shui turns in turn. When I come to my house this year,
Mountains do not turn and water does not turn. The forces of heaven and earth are always changing. The cinnabar mole in my heart in the past is now the mosquito blood on my chest. This is the power of time. How many great tombs in the past were damaged by these changes in heaven and earth.
, if the feng shui changes, the tomb may become extremely dangerous, not to mention that Liu Yuan has an insider under his command, so he is not an easy person...
However, no matter what, Brother Yaozi and I have to explore the surrounding area, what if we can find it? If there is really no other way, let’s work hard towards this last resort!”
By this time, the human skin had gradually been burned away, and the dry branches were almost completely burned.
I stood up and stamped out the scattered sparks to prevent unnecessary fires, dusted my pants, and then shook my head and said: "Forget it, let's not mention it for now. My head hurts when I mention that tomb. When I first met
When Xiaozhi came to her, she was completely desperate to escape. Who would have thought that such a fate would be planted? Now that Xiaozhi has come to her side, she gradually develops a love that is hard to leave. In the end, there is no way to escape, and she embarks on the journey.
This road now shows that this person is not as good as God, and everything is God's will."
Zhang Xinya nodded and walked out of the garbage alley with me.
This place is quite remote. There are no taxis, so you can only call one by mobile phone, and you have to wait for a long time.
The two sat down on the curb, sniffed each other's bodies, immediately gave each other a look of disgust, and then distanced themselves at lightning speed.
"By the way, there is another question that I can't figure out. I'm a little confused."
Zhang Xinya suddenly said: "Historically, Liu Quji was exiled by Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty because of his cruelty, and committed suicide on the way. Although he was named Liu, how could he build a large-scale construction project for himself since he was already in such a state of desperation?
It doesn’t make sense to build a tomb and then kill all the craftsmen afterwards.”
"What doesn't make sense? There are so many people in the history books who were as miserable as dogs. When they were buried, the tombs were not ambiguous at all. How can you see the slightest trace of desolation?"
I shook my head and sneered: "You probably still don't understand the seriousness of the ancient classes. Don't you know that noble merchant slaves are inferior to the fifth class people? You are still too young. The saying that a phoenix with fallen feathers is not as good as a chicken is originally true.
What two equals say when they laugh at the other person's downfall, for the people below, it is only right that a camel is so skinny that it is bigger than a horse!"
I had nothing to do, so I carefully explained the confusion in Zhang Xinya's mind.
It has been said for a long time that the slaves of Guiliang merchants are inferior to the fifth class of people.
Noble status actually means nobility, aristocratic families in ancient times.
In recent years, the saying that China has no aristocrats has been very popular. This is right or wrong. It is wrong because China did have aristocrats. It is right because there are no aristocrats in China now. In other words, after the Tang Dynasty, when China turned from an open to a conservative country,
, there will be no more nobles!
If we talk about Chinese nobles, there are probably two most famous ones - the Shandong nobles and the Guanlong nobles.
The inheritance of the Shandong gentry has a long history. Many of the ancestors of the seven sects and five surnames were nobles who existed when the Emperor of Zhou divided the world, and some were from the pre-Qin and Han dynasties. The family fortune lasted for more than a thousand years, but by the time of the Huang Chao uprising in the late Tang Dynasty, they were basically
Because the war is over.
The Guanlong nobles came relatively later. During the period of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Northern Six Towns were established. This group came from the Northern Six Towns. It was a mixture of Hu and Han. It was a very powerful military group. The emperors of the Western Wei, Northern Zhou, Sui, and Tang dynasties all came from.
Regarding this group, saying that it can dominate the rise and fall of a dynasty, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty's expedition to Goguryeo was actually bleeding the Guanlong Group. When the group failed, it also killed itself. However, this group finally ran into the sun and the moon.
The one in Lingkong was beaten to pieces by a woman, and he was completely defeated by the result.
In addition, there are also the Jiangnan scribes who migrated to the south, and even the many glorious clans left behind by the Emperor Zhou when he enfeoffed...
But without exception, basically with the end of the Tang Dynasty, these nobles were finished. After the Tang Dynasty, there were no real aristocratic families. The noble status was still retained, but it was just a group of vested interests setting up to protect their own interests.
Under the rules and regulations, let them sit there and count upwards. If they can't count seven generations, their faces will turn green. Without a thousand-year inheritance, do they have the nerve to call themselves aristocrats?
As for good people, they are actually the vast majority of ordinary people.
A businessman is a merchant, a lower-class person in ancient times.
Finally, there are the lower class slaves and the low class. The slaves are people who were sold into slavery, and there are also prisoners of war who were captured. The low class is more complicated. After the guilty, there are prostitutes and actors, such as those in the capital.
Lehu, Shanshan Leji, Guangdong Danhu, Zhejiang Jiuzhou Fishing Boat, Shibu, Jiangsu Beggar Household, etc...
In ancient times, slaves and lowly people were not called people, and they were killed at will. It was basically a matter of paying compensation, and they were no different from commodities.
The demoted king would definitely not be able to get craftsmen and people of good origin to build his tomb, but if he was a slave or a lowly citizen, there would be no problem. Liu Quji had a lot of money, and he could easily buy thousands of slaves and ordinary people.
I mean, I can kill him with one blow after repairing his tomb, and there will be no problem.
Although I have been demoted, my status as a slave and a humble status are private property and the public has no control over them!!
"The people who died in that secret passage must all be slaves and lowly people!"
I said expressionlessly: "Slave status and humble status are as obvious as straw. Anyone who is bought to build a tomb will not end well. Only this kind of person will be bought to build a tomb."
Knowing that he was bound to die, he harbored the idea of escape. After many good people were conscripted into hard labor, even if they were repairing tombs, they would not have such thoughts. After all, there were very few emperors who killed good people to fill their tombs. They were poked in the back by history books and courtiers.
They are all trivial. If one makes trouble and the world is full of war, who would dare to do it? This is why the locations of many emperors' tombs are recorded in history books. There are so many good people who built tombs, but they can't kill people and silence them. If they can't hide it, they simply have to do it.
Fang Fang can record it, but the mechanisms in the tomb are set up to death, or like Cao Pi, he directly told the world - there is nothing buried in my grave, don't come to dig me up."
The two chatted for a while, then the car arrived.
When we returned to the B&B, Tang Jinghan still didn't leave, looking at us eagerly.
Naturally, I would not disappoint him, saying that I had gained a lot of clues and gains.
In this way, Tang Jinghan was satisfied and left happily. This man was smart and knew that there were some things he shouldn't ask, so he simply didn't ask. He just wanted some news that would make him feel at ease.
I hesitated for a moment and finally didn't mention too many things. Now was not the time. If we did, people would look down on us.
After Tang Jinghan left, I sat down, asked Zhang Xinya to take out the map, and told me all my guesses.
After I finished speaking, my master had no idea. Apparently, he was afraid of the huge pile of corpses hidden under the pile shaft. After thinking for a while, he said: "It's better to wait until we get rid of that thing on the construction site.
By the way, let's discuss it after walking around a little bit. Although the situation is gradually becoming clearer, it is still not convenient to make a hasty decision."
I nodded, this was what I meant, and it coincided with me.
The Yin slave kept clamoring to improve the formula, so I didn't bring the wind chime with me, but left it in the room.
This guy has been thinking about how to make Lao Bai more...a bit more charming all day long. He has tried so many things, but it has made Brother Yao Zi very miserable. He has gone out to buy it many times.
However, fortunately, something has been gained.
Instead of using talcum powder, use rice milk instead, which is like making sweet potato starch. After the rice milk settles, a layer of sediment is obtained in the lower layer. After drying, some herbal residues are added to it, and the smell is pungent.
As for its gender, I have no doubts about it at this moment. If such a wretched master had been a woman during his lifetime, what would have happened?
The four words "fragrant, warm and compact" made Lao Bai so embarrassed and angry that he wailed and rushed forward to fight me.
Obviously, this hurt him completely.
The bad idea was obviously given to me by my master in a blink of an eye, but at this moment, this person looked calm and relaxed, as if he didn't know me. He even frowned when he looked at me and the slave, and his eyes gave people a feeling
It was like looking at a pile of poop piled on the side of the road. It was already disgusting, but it was piled in a place where it shouldn't be, so it became even more disgusting. The disgust made my heart twitch and I looked at it eagerly.
He shook his sleeves, brushed his clothes and walked away. At the end, he snorted coldly, so coldly...
The huge blame was thrown at me, and I couldn't tell the story of my suffering. I had to take a few punches from Lao Bai before I gave up.
Due to Tang Jinghan's sudden visit this afternoon, our planned itinerary has changed. After meeting Fei Xuemei, we came back too late. We were afraid that we would not be able to catch up tonight, so we simply rested at the B&B for the night to recharge ourselves.
Chapter completed!
