As we all know, our country is a country that pays attention to etiquette, and this has been the case since thousands of years ago. To this day, with the acceleration of the pace of life and the progress of modern civilization, many rituals have been simplified. In feudal society, if someone does something that is detrimental to etiquette, it is difficult for that person to stand anywhere.
In ancient times, not only the living had to pay attention to etiquette, but even when people died, funeral rites were very critical. In the Spring and Autumn Period, each culture showed a brilliant side, and when expressing its own views and doctrines, no one would give in. But when it comes to the funeral of the deceased, each dominant doctrine advocates the observance of rituals.
Moreover, at that time, the hierarchy of classes was very obvious, and the wealth of society was in the hands of the upper part of the people. When a nobleman died, his family often wanted to give the deceased the richest funerary items possible. The hope of the living, of course, is that even if they leave the human world, they can continue the material enjoyment of their lives in another place, especially in the Han Dynasty, because in the eyes of people at that time, death does not mean the end of life, but a continuation.
It was under the guidance of such ideas that feudal society had a thick burial. And it is precisely because of those funerary products that ordinary people can take a piece of it at random, they can live a good life, which has attracted countless tomb robbers to dig up ancient tombs and destroy the rest of the deceased. The industry of tomb robbery is very long, and the one who is relatively close to our era is Sun Dianying, who stole the tombs of Qianlong and Cixi.
He obtained more than thirty carts full of jewels from them, but the ordinary soldiers involved at that time hid dozens of pearls in their bodies. And farther away from us, there has been this industry since the Spring and Autumn Period. It is also in order to prevent the tombs from being destroyed by tomb robbers, the ancients have come up with many ways to stop them.
Qin Shi Huang began to think about his death from the moment he became emperor, and he built himself a huge place to go, which was the size of a football field. Many people know that this is an emperor who is obsessed with xiu xian, and he is eager to continue to enjoy these riches after his death, so his tomb is extremely exquisite.
In order to prevent being destroyed, he is said to have had people dig a river around it, filled with mercury, and after continuous infiltration, the tomb became a huge poison chamber, and anyone who entered it would finish playing. And his requirements for the tomb wall are even higher, in modern parlance, the requirements are as follows: after the wall is built, order people to stand at a distance of a hundred steps to shoot arrows at the wall, if the wall is not damaged, and do not drop the soil, it is qualified; if the soil is dropped, then it is demolished and rebuilt; if the wall is damaged, then the overseers and workers who built this piece are all executed.
In addition, there are people who design organs in the tomb, which many people have learned when watching TV or novels, and what you see is not all the ideas of the screenwriter, but also real. For example, corpse poison, that is real. There was a tomb robber born at the end of the Song Dynasty, very famous, when he carefully identified and found Zhao Kuangyin's tomb.
It took a lot of effort to finally enter the main tomb, and when he saw the ribbon with jade on the waist of the corpse, he wanted to take it away. Unfortunately, the body was too heavy to get up, so he tied a belt to the shoulder of the corpse, and he tried to pull it up with his back to the corpse, and then take the jade, who knew that at this time the corpse spat out a breath, and suddenly the grave robber's face was burned red, and he could no longer recover.
It turns out that in ancient times, in order to prevent the body from decaying, people often gave the corpse a drug before burial, although it could slow down the rate of decay, but it was highly toxic. This poison enters the internal organs, constantly interacts with microorganisms, and once the body is moved, it will spit out this poisonous gas, which is corpse poison.
In Henan Province, there is a Spring and Autumn tomb that is now impossible to identify the owner of the tomb, and when experts found it, it had been looted 12 times due to its age. This ancient tomb also has a mysterious mystery, and experts have found that it is covered with a layer of loose sand during excavation. Ordinary grave robbers arrive here, and if they continue to dig, the sand will fall into the tomb, and at the same time, it will also drive the movement of stones.
These stones are large and small, small but 6, 7 pounds, the large ones have more than 100 pounds, ingeniously the stones are sharpened with edges and corners, extremely sharp, and the placement is very exquisite, from all directions to prevent tomb robbers from entering the cave.
Unfortunately, despite this, it was not able to stop the tomb robbers. After expert research, this tomb has been stolen 12 times, and the earliest theft cave actually came from the Han Dynasty. The body was unrecognizable, and only half of the head remained. That's because the deceased at that time often had a precious pearl in their mouths, and it was possible that the tomb robbers had destroyed the head of the corpse in order to obtain it. Nevertheless, many artifacts have been found, but it can also be inferred how valuable the treasures stolen by the nameless are.
