Huo Sining also stared at a few professors, she could only judge that this ancient tomb belonged to the middle of the Tang Dynasty based on the texture style on those broken ceramic pieces, but if it was to be subdivided into the level of a prince and a general or a concubine and princess, she didn't know how to judge.

"That's a good question!"

Professor Xie turned around and patiently explained to several students:

"To determine who a mausoleum belongs to, in addition to observing the style of the mausoleum, you can also judge according to the dynastic ritual system, the size of the tomb, the layout of the cemetery, the stone carvings of the tomb road, the number of burial goods, and so on. ”

"In ancient times, the royal family was strictly hierarchical, and it was divided into grades according to three, six, nine, etc., from the queen to the concubine to the princess to the female official, and the burial goods that could be used in each grade were different. ”

Speaking of this, Xie Daoyuan paused slightly, smiled at Ding Liang and asked: "When we went to Qianling last year, we saw seventeen burial tombs in Qianling, you should still remember the specifications of Princess Yongtai's tomb, right?"

Ding nodded: "Remember, the tomb is covered bucket type, the two sides of the tomb are composed of green dragons, white tigers and samurai honor guards, there are two pairs of stone figures arranged in front of the tomb, a pair of stone lions and Huabiao, and there are six small niches built into the cave walls on both sides of the road, which are placed with various three-color figurines and ceramic utensils and other burial goods......"

Speaking of this, Ding Liang suddenly stopped, and looked at the ancient tomb pit in front of him with some surprise.

"You are right, Princess Yongtai is the seventh daughter of Li Xian of Tang Zhongzong, and she is buried in Qianling, and its specifications are extremely similar to this ancient tomb. ”

Seeing that Ding Liang had already understood, Xie Daoyuan nodded appreciatively: "Although I don't know how many niches there are in this ancient tomb, judging from the lion body, stone people and stone pillars that have been excavated so far, this specification can only be equipped by royal princesses, and the owner of the tomb should be a princess with a prominent status at that time." ”

The tomb of Princess Yongtai was excavated in the sixties of the last century, and because it is located at the head of the 17 tombs in Qianling, it was inevitably patronized by tomb robbers.

Although it was stolen, the archaeological team still excavated thousands of Tang Dynasty cultural relics in this huge Tang tomb.

If the ancient tomb in front of you is of the same specification as the tomb of Princess Yongtai, there will definitely be no shortage of cultural relics hidden inside.

The thought of the sensational effect that the excavation of this ancient tomb would cause made not only the professors and students, but also the other staff members excited and rejoiced.

"The previous sketch of the ancient tomb is not accurate enough, Xiao Ji, we have to speed up and try to draw the new map before eating! The rest of you will contact the staff first, and first count these excavated things, and count the data as soon as possible." Professor Xie commanded.

Ji Kun nodded, and without saying a word, he followed behind Xie Daoyuan with a hoe and a measuring ruler and walked towards the back mountain, Ding Liang and Huo Sining naturally followed closely behind the two, and the other professors also returned to each other and started to act.

Seeing Ding Liang and Huo Sining walking together, Li Xuanbing felt very unhappy, but it was Xie Daoyuan who arranged the work, even if she was dissatisfied, she could only hide her emotions in her heart and dare not show it.

Away from the people over there, Xie Daoyuan walked in front, and suddenly turned to look at Ji Kun behind him.

Xie Daoyuan didn't forget that he had spent a lot of time trying to get Huo Sining to transfer to a cultural relics student to learn archaeological identification with him, but Huo Sining's girl didn't get in the oil and salt, and she refused to live or die.

Now Huo Sining suddenly became Ji Kun's apprentice, which made Xie Daoyuan feel a little wrong in his heart, and couldn't help but look at Ji Kun and ask sourly, "This is your new apprentice?"

Ji Kun was stunned when he heard this, and glanced back at Huo Sining: "Who?

Xie Daoyuan nodded, and Ji Kun immediately smiled: "Where do I have the ability to accept her as an apprentice, this is my little junior sister, the closed disciple that my master just accepted." ”

Xie Daoyuan was stunned: "Why haven't you heard of Zhou Lao's closed disciple?" ”

Ji Kun nodded: "Yes, I just received it a few years ago, my master is low-key, I don't want to publicize this matter too much, so that people will suppress the news." ”

Xie Daoyuan nodded: "No wonder." ”

Ji Kun thought that Xie Daoyuan was saying that it was no wonder that he didn't hear the news, but in fact, Xie Daoyuan wanted to say that it was no wonder that Huo Sining refused to worship him as a teacher, it turned out that there was a better choice.

However, Xie Daoyuan was not angry because Huo Sining chose Zhou Shitao over him, but was a little curious, Old Man Zhou was very picky in choosing apprentices, what kind of ability did Huo Sining get into the eyes of Old Man Zhou.

"Why did Old Zhou pick this girl?" Xie Daoyuan couldn't help but ask.

Ji Kun smiled: "Don't underestimate this girl, she is silent, but she is actually amazing." ”

"My master has a hundred fake boxes, there are only ten genuine products in it, when I was out of the school, the old man took it out for me to test, and I picked out seven of them, but this girl picked out all ten genuine products inside, don't you say it's amazing?"

"This girl refused to worship my master as an apprentice at first, but my master took it after half begging and half persecuting. ”

Xie Daoyuan's eyes were full of shock, he only knew that Huo Sining, this girl, was very good at raising fish, but he didn't see that she could actually appreciate treasures.

The two of them chatted while surveying the terrain and drawing sketches of the tomb non-stop.

It sounds simple to survey the exact topography to determine the location of the catacombs, aisles, patios, corridors, chambers, and burial chambers, but it is not so easy to do.

Xie Daoyuan is a master of surveying tombs, and Ji Kun has also participated in many archaeological works behind Zhou Shitao a few years ago, so he is also very experienced, as for Huo Sining and Ding Liang, they can only be miscellaneous workers.

Ding Liang was okay, at least it wasn't the first time he had done this kind of thing, so Xie Daoyuan told him to do things with ease.

Huo Sining was a pure layman, seeing that Xie Daoyuan and Ji Kun were digging and measuring, and looking for a few plants from time to time to study, he suddenly felt that the second monk was confused.

Because this area was originally prepared to build a resort, the construction has not stopped after the discovery of the ancient tomb, except for the ancient tomb, which is still under intense construction not far away.

"It's still under construction over there, so you're not afraid that the ancient tomb will be hollowed out, and things will be excavated and the cultural relics will be destroyed?" Huo Sining was puzzled, so he asked.

Ding Liang smiled slightly wryly: "Where will the developers care about any cultural relics, they are all with bank loans for project development, for them, a wasted day means to pay an extra day of interest to the bank." ”

"The rescue work of this ancient tomb alone will take at least ten days and half a month, and when all the excavation and mining are completed, it will take at least several years, and by that time the daylilies will be cold, do you think those developers can wait until our ancient tomb is mined before they start construction?" )
