In the past few years, there were two books that were particularly popular, one was "Notes from the Tomb Robber" and the other was "Ghost Blowing Lights", and the directors quickly turned the books into plays, and brought the audience to the mysterious "tombs" in the book in a more intuitive way, to see how the protagonists climbed over the mountains and mountains, entered the ancient tomb, and encountered various "unbelievable" things.
The Yuan Dynasty also has a book that records "tomb robbery", called "Tomb of the Thief Ya Father", which records a very interesting story, saying that there was a tomb robber named Jia Hu in the Yuan Dynasty, I heard that there was a tomb robber named Jia Hu in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province (the ancient city "Pengcheng")," somewhere buried in the ancient tombs of the nobles of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the ancient tombs were full of gold and silver jewelry, just take a few pieces of gold and silver jewelry, just take a few pieces of it for a lifetime, for these treasures, the tomb robbers lived here for 20 years, what happened in the end?
Let's first talk about this tomb, Pengcheng is the hometown of Liu Bang, the ancestor of Han Gaozu, for 400 years it has experienced the jurisdiction of the 12th generation of Chu kings of the Western Han Dynasty, the 1st generation of Chu kings of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the 5th generation of Pengcheng kings, and indeed buried many noble tombs underground, and Northern Wei Li Daoyuan once wrote in the "Notes on water classics": "Now Pengcheng South Xiangyu plundered the southwest foothills of Matai, that is, Ya Father's tomb. ”
Who is the "Sub-Father"? As Xiang Yu's adviser, Fan Zeng was honored as "Ya Father", and eventually because of Liu Bang's divisive plan, he was suspected by Xiang Yu and died on the way to Pengcheng, and in order to commemorate him, people buried Fan Zeng on the Tushan Mountain near the Cimatai.
Although he was suspected, Fan Zeng's status was still there, there was definitely a treasure in his tomb, and the tomb robber Jahu came here with great interest after a series of "investigations and studies", and finally came here with his brothers with great interest, ready to "work", because of the rich experience of tomb robbery, they quickly determined that there was indeed an ancient tomb under the hill, and the excavation was even harder.
It was not easy to dig up the sealing layer, Jia Hu and his party encountered a big problem - the incomparably hard "yellow feldspar" made of anti-theft tomb roof, these yellow feldspar hard even if it is, this tomb actually used 4 layers of yellow feldspar... In the Yuan Dynasty, which did not have an excavator, it was impossible to dig up 4 layers of yellow feldspar by hand, and it was impossible to be unaware.
But Jia Hu thought that this tomb was actually willing to use 4 layers of yellow feldspar to prevent theft, and there was definitely a big treasure! So he went out, took all the money he had saved over the years, built a house next to the tomb, and then let all the brothers live in, and he had to steal the tomb, declaring that he wanted to "live in seclusion" here, but no one doubted.
But no one expected that this "seclusion" was more than 20 years, Jia Hu and his party woke up every day to "work", eat and rest and then continue to "work", every day cycle such days, finally arrived at the inside of the tomb, I have to say that they really have perseverance.
The scene in front of them stunned them, full of gold and silver jewelry, this group of grave robbers who had worked "hard" for 20 years burst into tears, rushed forward to fish for gold and silver jewelry, achieved overnight wealth, and left the place.
But because they were too excited and too proud, one of the personnel did not find himself being targeted, and soon Jiahu and his party were arrested by the local government, and all the illegal goods obtained were confiscated, and all the property in the family was confiscated and imprisoned.
Later, people have always tacitly accepted that this is the "Tomb of The Father", but in the 70s of the last century, Chinese experts found 3 Han tombs here, and according to the cultural relics excavated from the tomb, the owner of the tomb is most likely Liu Jiao, the first generation of Chu King of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but the evidence is insufficient, and experts are still studying.
