Full of doubts, I went to see Uncle Liao.
In Liao Bo's tent.
There was a cloth propped up on the ground, and the dead monkey body was lying on the cloth. Uncle Liao was concentrating on the study. I watched him touch his belly for a while and open his teeth for a while. He didn't even notice when I came in.
"Uncle Liao?"
"Uncle Liao?"
"You're awake, how do you feel?"
I said, it's okay.
"Is there something wrong with this thing?" Seeing the dead monkey on the ground, I felt inexplicably sick.
Uncle Liao was thoughtful and turned to me and asked: "Tell me about what happened to you after you went down. Try not to miss any detail and recall it carefully."
So I told Uncle Liao everything from the discovery of the tunnel to the colorful coffin.
After hearing this, Uncle Liao had the same reaction as Brother Yu. He also said that he did not see gold or colorful coffins in the tomb.
Of course I was scared when he said that.
Uncle Liao waved his hand: "Don't be afraid. Let's not mention this for now. Let me ask you, when you first saw a monkey and a dead man, did you turn your back to them or look at them head on?"
I thought for a while and confirmed: "It was the front. It was too dark at the time to see clearly. Dou Sprout hit him head on. The dead body was swinging back and forth like it was on a swing. I was fascinated by it. For this reason, Dou Sprout even slapped him. I slapped you."
"so..."
Uncle Liao's brows gradually relaxed.
"It seems that something is going on. This is no ordinary monkey. Take a closer look at its teeth and nails."
Uncle Liao told me that I noticed it. I opened the mouth and saw that the dead monkey had many fewer teeth. It didn't look like it had fallen out naturally, but it looked like it had been pulled out artificially. There was another feature I didn't notice. The monkey's nails were dyed. It has peeled off over time, but it should have been black.
Tooth extraction, black nails...
I didn't understand it at all, so I asked Uncle Liao what he saw.
Uncle Liao talked about his conjectures intermittently. I gradually became fascinated while listening, as if my mind had returned to the Ming Dynasty five hundred years ago. When combined with the actual situation I encountered, I just felt incredible. Could such a thing really exist?
There were many sects in the Ming Dynasty. In addition to Buddhism and Taoism, there were also White Lotus, Zoroastrianism, Bon, Yellow, Islamic, Persian, primitive Tantra (Eastern India), etc., and "Popo Ke" was attached to Bon. A small sect in the temple, the monks in the temple have tattoos on their faces. There are many ascetics in Popo Ke who are said to have practiced some methods (witchcraft) of the original Eastern Buddhism, and these witchcraft also include some miscellaneous foreign things.
Hypnosis, dog god, earth-bound spirit, slander of law, curse to kill.
This kind of hypnosis is not the ordinary hypnosis used by psychiatrists today, but an advanced hypnosis in Guzhu Youke.
Hypnosis does exist. It is said that Guan Gong used advanced hypnosis to heal his wounds without knowing the pain. Nowadays, powerful psychiatrists sometimes use hypnosis to treat people. For example, they ask patients to close certain painful memories. I forgot something as soon as I opened my eyes.
Uncle Liao guessed that the bean sprouts bumped into the corpse, and the corpse began to shake from side to side. The dead monkey slowly turned around. From that moment on, we fell into the hypnosis left by the mother-in-law Ke's teachings. The shaking corpse was like A clock can make people confused in just a few seconds and fall into the hallucination of what they want to see.
What do Dou Sprouts and I want to see?
Burial objects!
We want to see tombs filled with piles of grave goods!
This is indeed the result!
Gold and jades are scattered all over the floor, and there are so many that you are afraid of stepping on them when you walk!
The red lacquer coffin was first carved on the stone slab of Hou Baoshi. Both Dou Yazai and I had seen that slate. I subconsciously wanted to find the coffin because the coffin contained the most abundant burial objects. As a result, Dou Yazai and I both saw the coffin. Brother Yu and Uncle Liao came in later and saw nothing.
There was also a female voice saying "Hey hey" coming from the colorful coffin.
Eighty percent of it is not true.
Uncle Liao and I chatted all night and exchanged a lot of information. He had a wide range of knowledge. By daybreak, we both had dark circles under our eyes, but I wasn't sleepy at all. On the contrary, I was quite excited.
Just like reasoning and solving a puzzle, peeling off the cocoon and peeling away the fog layer by layer, trying to completely restore what happened that year.
There is no record of this matter in unofficial history books.
I think it must have happened, otherwise the iron coupon top would not make sense.
Here's what might be going on.
Tengger is close to the Xixia royal tombs. It was the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties. There were still a large number of rare treasures and burial objects in the Xixia royal tombs. There is a saying that the Xixia royal tombs were excavated by the Mongols in retaliation. Uncle Liao and I exchanged opinions. I don't think this makes sense.
First of all, Genghis Khan died in Liupan Mountain. It was June at that time, and the northwest was very hot. If the body was not transported back for burial as soon as possible, it would be full of maggots in a few days.
Furthermore, once Genghis Khan died, his sons were busy fighting for the imperial power and had no intention of traveling hundreds of miles to dig out the imperial mausoleum. The entrance to the underground palace of the Western Xia Mausoleum was buried at a depth of 25 meters, which was very deep. If you want to dig out the imperial tomb in a short time, you will need at least tens of thousands of troops to dig together. For this, you must also have tens of thousands of hand-supporting tools, such as hoes.
How could he carry a hoe with him? Hundreds of thousands of Mongolian troops came to fight Xixia and fight the war of annihilation. Why would each of them carry a hoe? impossible.
Therefore, it cannot be the Mongols at that time.
So who was the first to damage and rob the Xixia imperial tomb?
Who has the ability to hollow out the imperial tomb?
After thinking about it, there is only one possibility.
They were the border officers and soldiers in the early Ming Dynasty.
At that time, more than 100,000 people were stationed at the foot of Helan Mountain. The conditions in Pingji Fort and Zhenbei Fort were not very good. Because Zhu Yuanzhang had just founded the country in the early days, there was not much money in the treasury. It was difficult to pay salaries to the imperial officials, and there was no extra money. Border here.
What to do if you are poor?
Thinking of a way, these Ming troops at the border immediately focused on the Xixia imperial mausoleum with rich burial objects.
After decades of garrisoning, these tens of thousands of people had nothing to do every day. Compared with the Mongolians who came and went in a hurry, they had absolutely enough time to dig and steal slowly. Because no one cares about them and there is no rush, they believe that one day they can dig down and take out the valuable burial objects of the Xixia Emperor.
As a commander and envoy, Jin Along is a high-level official here. The Ming army hollowed out the Xixia Mausoleum and obtained a large amount of money and treasures. As a front-line commander, Jin Along himself also made a lot of money. The flowers are endless.
That way, that thing would make sense!
Where did he get that money?
The ability to build an iron coupon-roofed tomb to prevent robbers for his daughter was all obtained from the Xixia imperial mausoleum. Otherwise, with Zhu Yuanzhang's original salary system, he would not be able to build an iron coupon-roofed tomb even if he received a salary of five hundred years!
I saw three pairs of stone carving boards before. Among the many characters carved on the stone boards, there was a tall man sitting on the main seat. This man was Jin Aaron!
There is a sub-scene on the slate, a woman wearing a red crown (Kim Yoo-ja). She is normal at first, as if she has just been married. Then the scene changes and she is tied up hand and foot, with disheveled hair and a crazy expression, as if she cannot control herself. .
What great changes happened to her?
unknown.
Maybe her newly married husband died in the war, or he ran away with another woman because she wanted her, or she was pregnant and the child was gone, or her father Jin A'long didn't agree. These are all possibilities.
She is crazy.
If he wasn't crazy, he wouldn't tie her up.
Jin Along tried all means to save her and found the best doctor, but to no avail. In the end, Jin Along attributed the reason for his daughter's madness to ghosts and gods. There will be a tribute table for worshiping ghosts and gods in the main tomb chamber, which is reflected on the side.
The future development of things.
Through his connections, Jin A'long invited a group of original tantric ascetics taught by Po Po Ke to exorcise ghosts and gods from his daughter and make her a normal person. Of course, Jin A'long himself does not rule out that he is Po Po Ke. A true believer in the religion.
Final scene on the slab.
Eight colored coffins were carried, and Jin Youzi was carried into the desert and buried alive.
The only explanation for doing this is that the monks of Po Po Ke taught him to do this, and Jin Along agreed for some unknown reason.
On the one hand, Jin Along agreed to the method taught by the monks by his mother-in-law Ke and buried his daughter alive. On the other hand, he loved his daughter very much. How could he not love his own daughter!
He couldn't bear to see his daughter starve to death, so he planned it when he built the tomb on the iron roof. He claimed that the tomb built on the side was for himself, so that he could be with his daughter after death.
Why does the impregnable iron-roofed tomb have a secret passage leading directly to the tomb?
I guess.
This tunnel should have been climbed by Jin Along himself.
It's that simple.
Hundreds of years ago, a father crawled through the corridor with a food box without telling all the monks in Po Po Ke.
Going through a lot of trouble to deliver food to his daughter.
