Chapter 0509: Dusty History (Three Changes)
Craftsman?
Anthocyanin, Hua Mulan and others looked at this huge place, which was filled with countless bones, and it was not an exaggeration to describe the piles of bones.
"There can't be so many tomb robbers, it's obvious that they are the funeral staff!" Li Yunlong looked around and said, "Those who are buried on such a periphery are generally craftsmen who built it."
The Qin Dynasty was the first centralized feudal dynasty in Chinese history, and it also created the largest martyrdom in Chinese history.
After the death of the emperor, he ordered all the craftsmen who built the ** imperial tomb to be buried, and Qin II ordered all the craftsmen to be buried because he was worried that the craftsmen who were familiar with the internal structure of the ** imperial tomb would leak the secrets about the ** imperial tomb, so they simply killed them all and left no living mouth. "Six-Five-Zero"
*The world sent people to secretly transport the coffin of the emperor into the tomb, and then ordered the craftsmen who built it to the tomb to receive the reward. As soon as those craftsmen, conscripts, and convicts entered the tomb, Qin II ordered the closure of the Zhongxian Gate and the Outer Xian Gate, and trapped all the craftsmen in the tomb, and none of them were spared.
**A total of 720,000 people were recruited for the construction of the imperial mausoleum, and the maximum number of people used to repair the mausoleum was nearly 800,000, and most of them became funeral objects, so we will see such a scene.
Piles of bones!
Mountains of bones.
"This ancient feudal ruler is really ruthless!" Xu Erdao frowned and said, "One kill is the burial of hundreds of thousands of people." ”
Li Yunlong said: "This is very normal, and the craftsmen are buried with them, which is also for the safety of the royal mausoleum!" ”
Craftsmen are undoubtedly the people who know the most about tombs, and they are not only familiar with the location of the tombs, but also if there are mechanisms in the tombs, even false mounds and doubtful mounds. Once the craftsmen who build the tomb have bad intentions, then the tomb will not escape the disaster. Therefore, many cruel rulers will kill all the craftsmen who built the tomb after the tomb is completed, which is called martyrdom.
In the circular pit spanning nearly 100 meters from Zhongxian Gate to Waixian Gate, many white bones appeared, and these white bones would turn into powder as long as they were touched lightly.
Li Yunlong and the others walked cautiously through this passage, although they touched a lot of bones, but it was also a strange thing.
Soon, Li Yunlong and the others came to Zhongxian Gate.
Zhongxian Gate is much larger than Outer Xian Gate, it is a large double-open arched palace gate, a giant dragon is carved on the palace gate, there are still many willows on the palace door, and the two copper handles are still domineering and very tiger shape.
Standing in front of Zhongxian's door, Li Yunlong looked back and said, "In order to avoid the situation just now, you should flash to the side!" ”
was shot by the Qin Dynasty's bow and crossbow, and he must have been immortal and crippled.
"Drink ......"
Li Yunlong let out a loud shout, and then began to push the entire palace gate with all his might!
Because the underground palace gate of this ** imperial tomb has not been opened for a long time, coupled with the relationship between internal and external air pressure, it takes a lot of effort to open this city gate.
"Crunch...... Squeak squeak......"
"Boom...... Rumble ......"
The entire Zhongxian Gate was pushed by Li Yunlong's strong strength, and it continued to open slowly.
Because of the previous lesson, Li Yunlong was a lot more careful when he pushed open the palace door, and he was very energetic, although he knew what kind of door opening and closing would be inside!
Gradually, the gap in the palace gate is getting bigger and bigger!
But everything was very calm!
Anthocyanin, Hua Mulan, Wei Dayong and others were all looking at Li Yunlong nervously, worried about Li Yunlong's safety!
"Squeak Squeak......"
With the opening of the entire palace gate, it seemed that no mechanism was triggered, and everything was calm.
"No mechanism?"
"It doesn't make sense!"
Even Li Yunlong was a little suspicious, carefully and cautiously observed the entire palace gate, and finally made sure that there was no mechanism, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
"There is no mechanism for this door!" Anthocyanin was slightly stunned, looked at Li Yunlong with a worried expression, and said, "You need to be more careful ahead!" ”
Li Yunlong and his entourage crossed the palace gate, and were immediately stunned by the scene in front of them.
I saw a road appear in front of everyone, this road was different from the previous Night Pearl Road, it was a wooden road, these planks have been treated, and they will not rot for thousands of years.
On both sides of the wooden passage are two huge pits, this big pit is about 150 meters long, about 100 meters wide, about four meters high, under this pit are all the bones of white flowers, very shocking, a gloomy.
"Oh my God, there are so many bones here!" Anthocyanin's whole face changed: "The ancient funeral system is too cruel!" ”
Li Yunlong observed these two giant burial pits, and said slowly: "This should be the burial pit for those concubines, palace maids, and young girls!" ”
Looking at the size, thickness and structure of these skeletons, it can be seen that these are the bones of women.
In the ancient feudal system, once a prince and general died, they would definitely be buried with living people, most hundreds of people, and less than dozens of people!
Li Yunlong simply shone the bones in these burial pits with a flashlight, and his face became puzzled: "This is strange!" ”
"What's wrong?" Anthocyanin asked.
"There are scattered human bones in here, and it looks like a young girl." Li Yunlong hesitated for a moment and said: "These girls should all be living people who are buried, and after being executed in other places, they are turned into broken corpses and then used for burial, which is really cruel and bloody!" ”
Now that I have arrived at Zhongxian Gate, as long as I enter Neixian Gate, it should be the main tomb of the ** Emperor!
