The wind speed increased, and there were light raindrops in the wind, which made a crackling sound on the body and head.
If you look closely, you will see that those drizzles are tiny ice crystals.
I couldn't help grinning and taking a deep breath of the cold air.
Sleet!
Not daring to delay, I put the flashlight aside and started using it immediately.
There is no headquarters personnel on duty at the third target point. First of all, this location is extremely remote and cannot be reached by vehicles. Secondly, it was probably the obstacles deliberately set up by the orphans from the competition committee for the contestants.
The soil slope in front of us is more than fifteen meters long and wide. Although we can see the traces of plowed soil covering it, it still requires manual labor to accurately find the entrance to the Song Dynasty Tomb in the two hundred square meters of soil slope.
Before confirming the ancient tomb, we relied on technology.
After the ancient tomb is confirmed, only one skill is needed!
That’s hard work!
First, plant four dead branches around the target point to mark them, then wave the ordnance shovel to randomly shovel soil in four directions.
Identify the time sequence of ancient tomb backfilling based on soil dryness and moisture, and quickly locate the entrance to the ancient tomb.
There are only two types of structures of tombs in the Northern Song Dynasty, one is an earth cave tomb and the other is a brick tomb. The Song Dynasty tombs excavated across the country in recent years are basically of these two types.
The earthen cave tomb chamber is a rectangular vertical tomb passage or a narrow and long slope tomb passage.
Some sloping tomb passages have patios and passages. The caves have rectangular arc tops, square vaults, etc., and the burial objects are usually wooden coffins.
The brick tomb has the same shape and structure as the earth cave tomb, but there are several more changes inside the tomb.
Such as making the tomb into an octagonal, circular or square shape.
During the Northern Song Dynasty, in order to meet the needs of large-scale construction projects, Li Jie, a young craftsman, wrote a standardized architectural classic "Building Methods", which was promulgated in the second year of Chongning (1103).
Since then, China’s architecture has had the most standard regulations.
This book also provides the most complete architectural template for Song tombs.
The tomb here is in the lee of the wind and under a steep slope. Although the north wind blows loudly, it does not pose a great threat to me.
What really scares me is the increasing sleet.
In less than twenty minutes, all the energy accumulated for several hours was exhausted, but only less than one-tenth of the soil in the grave was dug.
Tiny ice particles hit the snow cap and turned into drops of drizzle, quickly soaking the robber's cap.
The body is sweating profusely and the sweat beads are firmly locked in the thermal underwear, which is uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
When I stopped digging, the cold wind got stronger and the ice particles of sleet became more and more dense, making me unable to open my eyes.
This made it even worse for me who was already severely exhausted.
I don’t know how much time passed, but when the crisp sound of the engineer’s shovel hitting the bricks rang out, I fell limply to the ground and almost fainted.
Shivering from the cold, I stuffed half a piece of chocolate into my mouth, gulped down some water, wiped the cold rain off my head, and sat on the ground, feebly digging away the dirt.
This is a very typical northern Song Dynasty tomb.
The outer wall is a stone door imitating a wooden gatehouse, divided into two leaves, with colorful paintings.
The two stone doors have been removed, leaving only an empty and dark corridor.
Under the strong light of the flashlight, you can clearly see the corridor leading directly to the main room, and you can also see the mottled colorful paintings in the main room.
You don't need to look to know that this is an octagonal tomb with ear chambers on both sides.
You can clearly smell the copper rust and rotten smell in your nose that has not yet had time to dissipate.
Although the tomb door was opened, the task was not completed.
Chewing an energy bar, he bent over and walked slowly into the tomb door.
In an instant, a violent storm started, and snow particles as big as rice grains hit me as if they were free.
Unable to hold back, I lay on the ground involuntarily.
As soon as his hand was released, the bright flashlight was thrown far away and rolled straight into the center of the tomb.
Woo!
Woohoo!
The strong wind rushed into the tomb and swirled wildly, bringing with it bursts of ghostly cries and divine howls, which amplified infinitely in my ears.
The extremely powerful wind whipped up the bright flashlight, illuminating the painted murals in the tomb very vividly.
All the characters in the mural of the woman opening the door and the couple having a banquet came to life in an instant, and walked out of the mural to greet me with a smile on their face.
In a daze, the faded coffin in the middle of the tomb moved away in the next second.
A couple dressed in silk and satin stood up straight from the coffin, floated to the ground, smiled at me and extended an invitation.
For a moment, my scalp was numb and I yelled.
This roar that I had exhausted my whole life seemed insignificant amidst the shrill sound of wind, rain, and ice particles, but it woke me up.
Shaking his head vigorously, he stabbed his chest with his right hand, stabbing himself to wake up from the fascination with the cold temperature.
Sure enough, I was missing one soul and two souls. When facing the ancient tomb, I would be in a state of ecstasy.
This is a new discovery and something to be careful of in the future.
Carrying the engineering shovel, he stood up again and entered the tomb directly.
Although everything I saw was very real, I always felt that there were figures lingering behind me, and I could clearly hear various laughter and greetings in my ears.
Completely ignoring the ghostly ghosts and sounds from nine centuries ago, he glanced around and quickly made an assessment of the ancient tomb.
This is an ancient tomb from the Northern Song Dynasty that was robbed a long time ago.
Since the soil on the hillside on top of the tomb was extremely thick, the tomb robbers chose to attack from the front.
The coffin in the middle had been emptied long ago, and not even the bones were visible.
It can be seen from the cleaning traces of the blue bricks laid inside the tomb that the competition committee discovered this Song tomb for no more than three months. .
The specific discovery process should be that a tomb robber stepped on the site and was tricked, and the competition committee took a ready advantage.
To the west, you can still clearly see the traces of piles of earthenware pots, pots, and copperware.
Those copper coin specimens obviously came from these artifacts.
After the analysis, my eyes stayed on the northeast corner and I couldn't help but hum.
People light candles, ghosts blow out lamps!
These orphan dogs from the competition committee really know how to play.
There was actually a candle placed in the northeast corner! ?
Who the hell came up with this bad idea!
Have you watched too many tomb robbers?
Still deliberately pretending to be a ghost to scare the contestants!
To be honest, this Song Dynasty tomb is indeed a bit scary.
