The tombstone in the corridor, like most of the eulogies in the mausoleum, describes the life of the owner of the tomb. Unexpectedly, the owner of this tomb was not a descendant of Shi Le, but his father Yuan Yuan. Emperor Shi Zhou and Zhu.
The first half of the inscription records the life of Shi Zhou Hozhu in detail. It is said that this person's name is Qi Yijia, a native of Wuxiang, Shangdang, and he was born in the third year of Zhengyuan of Cao Wei, that is, when General Jiang Wei of the Shu Han Dynasty was defeated by Duan Gu of Cao Wei in Anxi. General Deng Ai died in the second year of Kangxi's reign in Jin Yuan Dynasty at the age of thirty-six.
Shi Zhouhuozhu was originally a small commander of the Jie tribe, which means a small leader of the tribe. Both "Mushuai" and "Mushuai" were the names of low-level officials set up by the Jin Dynasty. His rank was lower than the county captain and slightly higher than the mistress (less than five thousand households). He does not have much real power in his hands, but he has the support of the Jie tribe, so he is also a considerable force in the Bingzhou area.
The Jie people are the descendants of the Qiangqu tribe of the Xiongnu tribe. Going back several generations, they almost all ate in the same pot as the ancestors of other Wuhu countries. However, by the time of Shi Zhou and Huozhu, because of their character He was cruel and rough, so he was not very gregarious among the Hu people. He himself later gave up the position of commander to his son Shi Le, which allowed the Jie tribe to gain a firm foothold among the Hu people.
Shi Zhou Huozhu had a big personality problem and was very aggressive, but he also had an advantage that made all barbarians awe-inspiring, that is, he conquered the Wolf King when he was young.
The nomadic people worship the wolf totem and believe that their race is the offspring of the god and the wolf king. In almost every tribe, there are various legends about the wolf god. Against this background, a group of people call out on the grassland. The wolf king of Langying has naturally become the object of worship by the barbarians. There is even a saying that the wolf king is the mortal incarnation of the wolf god.
Shi Zhou Huozhu had a vision since he was a child. It is said that he had a beard covering his face, his arms were as long as his knees, and he was so powerful that he could subdue tigers and leopards. The Taoist priest estimated that his appearance looked like a gibbon with sinews. In the martial arts world where he lived, At the foot of Xiangbeiyuan Mountain, the grass and trees all look like cavalry. The ginseng growing in the garden at home has "extremely luxuriant flowers and leaves, almost like a human being." It can be said that this young man is not an ordinary person from all aspects.
Shi Zhou Huozhu lived up to expectations and did something famous that moved the grassland when he was nine years old. It was a windy and snowy winter night. Shi Zhou Huozhu was looking for a lone horse and he accidentally became lone. It happened that he was lone. Surrounded by wolves again, the young and energetic Shi Zhouhuozhu was not afraid at all. He laid down two old wolves in succession, and when the alpha wolf attacked, he stabbed it in the right eye, and then took advantage of the panic of the wolves. Ji Sa let go and ran away. This young man was like a tiger, but he didn't lose his sense. In addition, he was very lucky. He happened to see the horse shaking like a sieve in the wind and snow before running very far. He didn't even think about it. The knife pierced the horse's butt, and then he quickly got on the horse and escaped from the encirclement while riding the horse with red eyes in pain.
On the way back, Shi Zhouhuozhu lost too much blood due to injuries and unconsciously passed out. He was finally rescued by herdsmen around the tribe. At that time, he was lying on the back of a horse with a wolf's eyeball stuck in his hand with a dagger. , was frozen solid in the cold wind. Fortunately, he was not seriously injured. The herdsmen rubbed his body with strong liquor several times, and Shi Zhou Huozhu gradually woke up.
A few days later, when some herdsmen saw the one-eyed wolf queen, the news spread immediately. She was able to escape from the siege of a pack of wolves and even lost one of the wolf king's eyes. Not to mention that a nine-year-old Even the most capable Batulu (warrior) on the grassland cannot do this. What does this mean? It can only mean that this person was chosen by the wolf god. The great wolf mother Ashina is a one-eyed giant wolf. Shi Zhou and Zhu must have unintentionally followed the will of the wolf god and achieved his achievements on the snowy night. The wolf mother's mortal form, otherwise the habits of the wolf pack, how could it be possible for Shi Zhou Huozhu to escape so easily?
In the view of the grim-faced Taoist priest, this record cannot be believed to be true or false, but it also reflects from the side that Shi Zhou Huozhu's status among the Hu people was probably a feeling of awe and fear. From this point of view, When the Northern Wei army opened the tomb, it was also for this reason that they chose to re-seal the tomb passage. After all, the people selected by the Wolf God had a high status among the entire Hu people.
Regarding the records of Shi Zhou Huozhu's life, the highlight moment is basically over here. From then on, when he gave way to Shi Le until his death, it was almost passed over. Even though he was a person selected by the Wolf God, he did not make any waves in his life. Later, it was his son Shi Le who proclaimed himself emperor twenty-seven years after his death, and posthumously named Shi Zhou Hozhu the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, with the temple name Shizong.
When Shi Zhouzhu died, he was buried near Beiyuan Mountain. At that time, conditions were limited and the Feng Shui acupuncture points he could choose were average. So after Shi Le became emperor, he wanted to move his father's mausoleum. In the end, the location of the new mausoleum was decided on Xuan. This is the Dragon Vein Mountain next to Hu City.
At the beginning of the selection of the mausoleum, the Feng Shui fortune teller only saw that it was a pure single dragon vein, and there was no problem in using it to bury people. However, as the project progressed, the underground palace was dug deeper and deeper, and the situation in the mountain became more complicated. Here There is not just one dragon vein at all, but at least three dragon veins gathered together. The dense dragon energy formed strange caves in the mountain, called "Hebo Ning Palace". In layman's terms, the caves in the mountain are shaped like female uteruses hanging upside down, and The main underground palace of Shizhou Huozhu is built within the palace. Two tombs are located at the corners of the palace on both sides. The three tombs are connected to each other. In addition to Shizhou Huozhu who is the main underground palace, Shi Le's concubine is also buried. His mother, Empress Dowager Yuanzhao, and his brother Shi Jing who died in infancy.
Logically speaking, it is most reasonable to design a Feng Shui acupoint like Hebo Ning Palace as a mother-child tomb. However, Feng Shui theory is extremely complex, ranging from mountains, rivers, stars and moon to earth, stone and sand. Various factors will affect the weather of an acupuncture point. , this is the case with Hebo Ning Palace. On the surface it looks like a good acupoint, but during the construction process, both Feng Shui masters and craftsmen can feel the cold and evil atmosphere in the cave. After staying for a long time, many people even Hallucinations began to occur. Countless ghost figures could always be seen running around in the darkness, and creepy laughter could be heard in the ears. The craftsmen were talking about it while they were building the tomb. They all said that they had dug the pylorus of the underworld. Those ghosts The shadow is the soul that escaped from hell.
This matter is not trivial. If it reaches Emperor Shi Le, the Feng Shui fortune teller who selects the acupoints will not have to live. However, the matter has been discussed in private, and it is impossible to hide it no matter how hard you want to hide it, so this person is called "Jianghua Taoist" The Feng Shui fortune teller pondered carefully for several days, and finally came to a conclusion - this is indeed a treasure cave, but the dragon energy is too strong, so it is not suitable for moving the coffin. Instead, it is best to bury it in clothes. It can play a role in protecting future generations, and the bones will not be eaten back by the excessive dragon energy. Isn't it a good way to kill two birds with one stone?
