The other side room is the weapons room. The weapons, guns, swords and halberds are all lined with orchids (weapon racks). The weapons are all well preserved and there is not much rust. This is because the tomb is not that long ago and the environment of the underground palace is very dry. s reason.
There was not much to see in the armory room. These buried weapons were ritual objects in the burial system. They were rarely edged and could not be used as weapons. However, Luo Laoqi still found a short mace for self-defense. This thing is a strike weapon. It doesn't matter if the tip of the club or the nail is not sharp, as long as it can be smashed easily.
After leaving the armory room and coming to the end of the corridor, there was a tomb door, but half of it collapsed for some unknown reason. After passing through the tomb door, there was a semi-large tomb immediately behind it. There was a low table in the middle of the tomb, with the low table on three sides. There is a futon and three sets of tableware neatly placed on the table - this should be the restaurant of Shi Zhou's Zhu Di Palace.
There are three sets of futons and tableware in the tomb, which proves that there were two people who could eat with the real owner Shi Zhou Hozhu. These two people may be buried in an underground palace with Shi Zhou Hozhu, or they may be his wife. The owner of the other two tombs in the mother tomb.
The Taoist priest with a grimace took out a star to determine the direction. The tomb chamber had turned into an east-west direction, which was the same as the trend of the mountain. In other words, after coming down from the spiral staircase, the main direction of the underground palace was directly reversed by 90 degrees.
There are many stone doors on the rock walls on the north and south sides of the tomb. The Taoist Priest with a grimace asked everyone to search separately. He and Luo Laoqi first came to the right side of the north. Behind the first stone door was not an ear room, but a corridor. On the left hand side after entering the corridor are three ear rooms side by side.
The function of the three ear rooms seems to belong to the east kitchen. The first two rooms are filled with cooking utensils and there is nothing special about them. The innermost one is larger in area. Entering it is a deep well made of square bricks. It is almost two feet square and more than three feet deep. There is a layer of water at the bottom of the well. I don’t know what it is used for.
Luo Laoqi looked at the bottom of the well and wondered: "Master, is this a well? How can a well be drilled into the rocks?!"
The Taoist priest with a grimace replied: "This is not a water well, but an ice well. This is the 'Ling Yin' recorded in ancient books."
"Ice well? It's not water, but ice?" Luo Laoqi still didn't understand.
"What kind of ice is there! It's an ice cellar built by rich people to store ice cubes for summer enjoyment. The ice cubes here must have melted long ago, so there is only a layer of water left."
"Mom! You really know how to enjoy it. Rich people are so fucking chic, huh?"
"Then what do you think? Corrupt elements are playing tricks. Even the Jade Emperor has to lie down at the Nantianmen. Or the people often say, 'I don't envy the gods or the Buddha, I only want to enjoy happiness in the high hall.' , I am living the life of a god, why do I expect to become a god?"
"But the Emperor has a lot of people cultivating immortals. Could it be that he has had enough fun on earth and wants to play in heaven?"
"You're saying the opposite. They went to cultivate immortality precisely because they didn't have enough fun. To put it bluntly, they were reluctant to die. The emperor is young and strong. I have never seen many immortals. Not all of them are older. Are you going to start doing those crooked things?"
"That's right. The kind of life where you don't have to take off your pants to poop is definitely not enough for the Sa family. It's no wonder that they are desperately trying to poop into the grave after they die. No one can let it go!"
"Is there something wrong with your thinking, kid? Why are you supporting the corrupt elements? They lived in ease and enjoyment when they were alive, and when they died, they had to take away their gold and silver property. It was obvious that they did not give the people a way to survive. Is it still reasonable? ?Don’t forget your class position.”
The two walked out of the corridor while talking. There was an ear room next to it. As soon as the grim-faced Taoist priest saw the layout of the room, he said: "Look, this is another corrupt person who has suffered a thousand blows. There is even a bathroom in the underground palace." How come it can still take a bath in it?"
"Is this a bathroom? Are the two kneeling dummies taking bath?"
"Well, look at the square trough on the ground in the center of the ear room. There is a deeper round hole in it, which is called a 'pool drain'. It is specially used for drainage. The vertical hole will be very deep, leading straight into the crevices of the mountain. So that the water can be drained along the gaps. This is a bathing system only enjoyed by the royal family. The pottery figurines are responsible for bathing and changing clothes for their masters. Look at this configuration, there are two people waiting for each bath."
"His grandma, are we here to fight or to relieve our anger? Let's go and look away! Go to the next room, the baby is not found and he is so angry."
Luo Laoqi was still disappointed with the next room. It might have been filled with silks, satins and other items, but they were all reduced to dust. Only some brocade and cotton were left piled black and black in the corner. There were only a few valuable things. No.
The two men then continued to search forward. The stone door in front of them was the last side room on the right wall. After entering the door, there was another corridor, but there were no rooms on both sides. Following the corridor for more than ten steps, a road gradually appeared in front of them. Tomb gate.
After opening the tomb door, it seemed that there was still a dark corridor behind. Luo Laoqi turned to the Taoist Priest with a grimace and asked, "This road is so deep, is there a place where the treasure is hidden at the end?"
The Taoist priest with a grimace was also a little unsure. Before he entered the corridor, he had already discovered a tomb door on the west rock wall of the tomb chamber. According to the direction of the underground palace, that door was the main tomb door. If he guessed correctly, the door behind it was It must be connected to the main tomb chamber. The entire underground palace is roughly in the layout of the front palace and the back chamber. The front palace is the restaurant and other ear chambers and other supporting facilities that the two have just searched. The back chamber is hidden behind the tomb door on the west wall. architecture.
It stands to reason that the front palace can be regarded as a public area of the "home". It is normal not to find valuable burial objects. Good things will be placed in the back room, so there is no reason why this corridor leads to some kind of treasure room. It is easy for outside thieves to hide, but it is difficult to prevent domestic thieves. Just digging the tunnel deeper will mean it is safer?
The Taoist priest with a grimace was thinking about it, but someone suddenly slapped him on the back. His thoughts were elsewhere. Leng Buding jumped up in shock when he was slapped, and then ran straight into Luo Laoqi, frightening Luo Laoqi next to him. A jump.
Looking back, it was He Siniang who followed. The Taoist priest with a grimace rolled his eyes and sighed, "Is it appropriate for you, Siniang, to dress like this and then secretly touch and photograph someone from behind?"
"I am not afraid of the cold and scare you by making noises. Who knew I could scare you by not making a sound? This is too difficult to take care of."
"Hey! I don't have the ability to reason with you women. Why are you here?"
"I saw a deep tunnel over there. I wanted to come over and ask you to discuss it, but who knew there was one here too."
"Is there a tomb gate in the middle of that corridor?"
"Yes, it's almost exactly the same as this one, just in the opposite direction."
"Then these two corridors are symmetrical." The grim-faced Taoist priest pondered for a moment, then said, "I know, I know, is this the road leading to the burial tomb? One on each side, just connecting the child and mother tombs. Together."
"Yes, why did I forget that there are two accompanying tombs? The end of the corridor leads to the dining room of the main tomb, so the family can get together to eat from time to time."
"If that's the case, we won't explore the corridors on both sides for now. We'll go back into the back room and continue exploring. We'll wait until the main tomb is completely revealed before we add the accompanying tombs."
He Siniang and Luo Laoqi nodded, and the three of them turned around and walked to the front palace. On the way, Luo Laoqi asked: "Siniang, did you find the treasure over there? Sajia and the Taoist priest searched around and found all of them. Mommy, it’s time to play with your legs.”
"Nothing was found in the south auricle. They are all functional rooms. In addition to a toilet and a wine cellar, the two empty auricles are used for unknown purposes, and then there is the corridor with the tomb door closed. "
"Wine cellar?! Is there any wine in there?"
"What the hell are you going to do?" The grim-faced Taoist priest asked sideways, "You dare to drink the wine in the tomb, are you crazy?"
"Isn't the wine in the tomb made by people? The Sa family is just a little sleepy and wants to drink some wine to refresh themselves."
"It's true that it's brewed by humans, but do you know what it's brewed with? Mix it with some dead children and you'll drink it to death! Besides, you've drank all the wine you brought?"
"I've already run out of drinks. That pot is not enough for Sajia. However, Sajia just casually talks about it. I have always heard colleagues mention it, saying that the wine from the ancient tomb is green, beautiful and delicious, and Fengni Just smelling the aroma of wine can make you intoxicated as soon as you open it. Sajia is really curious, but if he drinks it, he doesn’t have the guts."
"Don't listen to those people farting. The greener the color of the wine in the ancient tomb, the longer it has been stored. The smell of the wine has long since penetrated. The reason why it is green is because it reacts with the patina on the wine glass. When you drink it, The taste in my mouth is probably earthy except for the coppery taste. I don’t know if I’m drunk or not, but it’s really life-threatening.”
"Okay, okay, it's okay if the Sa family didn't say anything, hey? What about the grandfather and grandson?"
The three of them came to the front palace, but Xia Houyun and Xia Houxiang were nowhere to be seen. The Taoist priest with a grimace was just about to call out when he saw Xia Houxiang walking out of the first stone door on the south side. Seeing him, the three of them hurriedly said: "My second uncle discovered something inside."
"What did you find? Baby?" Luo Laoqi heard the news and walked over. Behind the stone door were the two ear rooms of unknown purpose that He Siniang said. They have the same layout as the East Kitchen. There is a corridor at the entrance, and on the left side of the corridor There are two ear rooms next to it, and Xia Houyun is in the inner one.
The layout of the two rooms is almost the same. There is only a stone platform on the inside. The two ends of the stone platform are connected to the left and right walls, like a stone bed cut directly from the rock wall. When the Taoist with a grimace saw this layout, he first felt that they were two rooms. "Guest room", guests must have a place to rest after drinking too much. It just so happens that there is a bedding in the third ear room on the north side. You can take it and spread it and die in place, which just reflects the hospitality characteristics of Shi Zhou and Zhu.
He Siniang also deduced this when she searched, but there were no other objects in the ear room, so she could not jump to conclusions. After discussing it with Xia Houyun, she felt that since there was no property in it, there was no need to worry about what it was used for, so The three of them abandoned this place and continued to explore.
When He Siniang went to find the grim-faced Taoist priest, Xia Houyun was curious, so he came back to look around in his spare time. Unexpectedly, he discovered something this time. There was a very mysterious thing hidden in the corner between the stone platform and the wall of the inner ear room. The hidden touch panel mechanism, the touch button is only the size of a copper coin and is slightly higher than the wall. You can't find it unless you look carefully. Xia Houyun is also old and unsteady, so he accidentally bumped into it, and then he heard a sound of the mechanism. , the stone bed in front of him slowly moved a foot into the wall on the right, and then revealed a dark sloping stone staircase.
