In ancient times, the mainland has always felt that the wealth of life, after taking the property into the soil, can also continue to enjoy in another world. Therefore, some rich and powerful princes and generals will build their tombs after death to be incomparably gorgeous, and they will use countless gold and silver treasures to accompany themselves to burial. In order to ensure that they will not be disturbed after death and that their funerary products will not be stolen, they have begun to work their tombs, setting up various organs and anti-theft measures to protect their tombs.
No matter how the owner of the tomb strengthens his anti-theft skills, there is always a way for the tomb robbers to enter the tomb and then loot the treasure inside. In modern times, tomb robbery has become more rampant, and few tombs that have not been stolen, even some small ancient tombs, have been patronized by tomb robbers.
The tomb mentioned in this article is a special existence, the owner of the tomb not only successfully protected his tomb from being stolen, but also left the tomb robbers who came to steal their own tombs forever and became new funerary products.
In the 1990s, in Baoji City, Shaanxi Province, a farmer built a wall at home, but in the process of construction, he dug a brick from the ground, which was simple in shape and looked like an ancient thing. This place in Shaanxi is the core area of the Central Plains culture in history, with a strong history and culture, and the locals know more about history, and the farmer understands that it may be the excavation of ancient tombs. So he reported the situation to the local authorities, and soon sent archaeologists to investigate, but the result was a thunderbolt on a sunny day.
Archaeologists found that this ancient tomb is very old, it should be the middle and late Warring States, but such a long period of time, so that this ancient tomb seems to have been stolen and excavated in many places. In terms of rough observations, there are no less than 15 pirate holes. Experts speculate that the tomb may have been looted. Although the cultural relics were looted, the excavation of this tomb still has a lot of historical value, so we continue to excavate the ancient tomb. Unexpectedly, during the excavation process, some fine sand was found, and no less than 9 corpses appeared in the fine sand, and archaeologists thought that this tomb may be a quicksand tomb.
The biggest feature of quicksand tombs is that if tomb robbers excavate, they will be trapped in quicksand. Because there is a lot of fine sand and small stones a few meters below, and there is a hollow wooden plank on the bottom floor, the tomb robber who hits the robbery cave breaks after stepping on the plank, and directly falls into a large amount of quicksand, no matter how capable you are, you can no longer escape.
In order to ensure safety, archaeologists used modern large machinery to clear all the fine sand around them, but they did not expect to find more bodies after cleaning, plus more than 30 bodies were found at the beginning. This is a complete hell for tomb robbers, and the owner of this tomb has successfully protected his tomb with his own ingenuity, preventing future generations from disturbing him, and making his tomb of more than 200 square meters safe for thousands of years. Finally, after entering the tomb, archaeologists unearthed thousands of precious historical relics, including jade, bronze and so on.
Finally, through the survey of archaeologists and the records of some historical documents, it is speculated that the owner of this tomb is indeed a figure from the Warring States period. The vassal state was the Cai kingdom, and it was a nobleman of this vassal state. It is also because of the tomb owner's miraculous anti-theft measures that the precious bronze historical relics such as the dragon ear tiger seat square pot, the Yong bell, and the Shengding have been preserved in the tomb. It can be said that this ancient tomb is one of the most successful anti-theft tombs in the history of the mainland, which has made many archaeologists marvel.
