China's most successful anti-theft tomb, a treasure has not been lost in the past thousand years, and there are 80 more corpses of tomb robbers

There are many tomb robbers in history, according to Chen Lin's "Yuzhou for Yuan Shao", which is recorded: "Cao You specially placed the general of Fa Qiu Zhonglang, touched the Lieutenant of Jin, and passed through the turmoil, and no skeleton was revealed." And the term "lieutenant touching gold" must have been heard by many people, originally designed by Cao Cao in the Three Kingdoms period, and the lieutenant who touched gold was the director of the national tomb robbery office. The position of exchanging military salaries by stealing funerary goods from tombs later became a "nickname" for tomb robbers.

Lieutenant Touching Gold can be said to be charged with money, but not everyone can be, and the methods of robbing tombs inside are more exquisite, such as Lieutenant Touching Gold should be good at finding a valuable tomb, and when the tomb is excavated, candles should be lit in the tomb chamber, placed in the southeast corner, and then begin to touch gold, that is, tomb robbery.

But if the rooster crows and extinguishes the candle, then the funerary must be put back in its original place, and bi respectfully prostrates its head three times, and it must be empty-handed to be able to go back. This is "chicken chirping lights do not touch gold". And the burial chamber is only allowed to enter once, and can not be entered in the future. If you meet a peer, pay attention to mutual help, but the first to come has the right to choose.

At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Wu Zixu, the grand master of the State of Wu, can be said not to rush the gold and silver treasures, but he was called the "most poisonous tomb robber" in history, according to the "Zuo Biography", in 522 BC, because he was framed by the young prince of Chu, Fu Wujie, his father and brother were killed by the King of Chuping, and Wu Zixu was forced to flee the state of Wu, vowing to destroy the state of Chu in revenge for killing Xue Hate.

Then the first thing Wu Zixu who came to the Chu Kingdom to do was to find the tomb of King ChuPing and whip his corpse, but because the King of Chuping was afraid that some tomb robbers would come to dig up his own tomb, he mutilated all the craftsmen who built the mausoleum, so that Wu Zixu did not find it for a long time, but he did not expect that one of the craftsmen who built the mausoleum could escape.

Later, it was also he who told Wu Zixu the real tomb site of King Chuping. Sure enough, Wu Zixu successfully found the tomb site of King Chuping, so he carried the body of King Chuping up, picked up the whip to relieve his hatred, and hit it 300 times before stopping, which is also the origin of the allusion "whip corpse three hundred". Regarding tomb robbery, although It is said that Wu Zixu is an extremely rare person who does not rush to the gold and silver treasure, some people, even if they come for the gold and silver treasure, will be buried with the owner of the tomb because of the mechanism in the tomb.

For example, in the late 1990s, located in the Xiangyang area of Hubei Province, archaeologists found the most successful ancient tombs in ancient anti-theft, and according to the account books in the tombs, the funerary items in the mausoleum were placed intact, all of which were complete. But there are a total of 80 more remains of grave robbers.

At that time, when the mausoleum was found, the workers were carrying out construction work, but they inadvertently dug out a blue stone slab, which was engraved with a lot of ancient characters, and then reported it to the local cultural relics protection unit, and soon the archaeological team rushed over to carry out rescue excavations.

Wait until the initial excavation and exploration to know that this is an ancient tomb belonging to the five generations period, its scale is huge, the structure of the mausoleum is changeable, extremely complex, and in this ancient tomb, as many as 200 pirate caves were found, basically there are various pirate caves have the figure of various dynasties, but this time is very depressed archaeologists.

You know, if the tomb robbers sweep away the cultural relics inside, then it means that this tomb is a pity for the archaeological community, because there is no research value and room. However, before the main burial chamber of the mausoleum was excavated, dozens of corpses were accidentally found, which were obviously the remains of tomb robbers, but why all of them died here was inextricably linked to the sand of this mausoleum.

Later, I learned that this mausoleum is a veritable quicksand tomb, and its tomb passage and the perimeter of the tomb chamber are filled with more than ten tons of quicksand, that is, fine sand, after clever design, even if the tomb robber enters the tomb, there is a great possibility that the mechanism of quicksand will be triggered, and eventually buried by the quicksand, resulting in suffocation.

Taking a step back, even if the tomb robber did not touch the organ, but after all, it is robbing the tomb, then as long as it is robbing the tomb, it will deal with the fine sand, and it is necessary to hollow out more than ten tons of fine sand around in order to take away the funerary products of the tomb, which is undoubtedly impossible for the tomb robbers, so it will also give up the plan to steal this tomb.
