Beipai Tomb Raiders Notes

The terrain and roads in the deep mountains of western Hunan are complicated, full of camphor poisonous insects, and Xiaomi lives in a certain black Miao village in the original Miao people's gathering area of ​​Dahou Mountain. That place is isolated from the world, without roads, water and electricity. It is not easy to find a guide who is proficient in terrain and Hakka.

Originally, there was a ready-made guide candidate, Abu, the great apprentice of Lord Zhao in Xiangxi, but after we found someone to explain the situation, Abu shook his head and said, "Guys, I really want to help you, but my identity is not suitable. I am from the Bai nationality, and I have never been very popular with those black seedlings. How about this, just for a few days, I am looking for someone for you. This person came from the Dahou Mountain. Suitable."

We agreed naturally, so we stayed in the hotel and waited for Abu to bring the guide these two days.

That evening, Snake Girl suddenly knocked on my door and said, "Brother Xiang, take me with you in the car, let's go out for two nights."

"I don't really want to move, where to play?" I asked.

"Go to Huaguoshan! I heard that there are many people there at night! There are also barbecues!"

Huaguo Mountain is located in the center of Jishou. The mountain is not high, and it is a famous local tourist attraction. I thought about it and said, "How about I ask Xiaoxuan and Douyazi to go together?"

"oops!"

Snake Girl rushed in, she grabbed my arm and shook her, "Brother Xiang, it's not fun if there are too many people, just the two of us! We can be back before ten o'clock in the evening."

"Oh...then let's go," just happened to be a little craving for barbecue.

When I got out to start the car, I touched my pocket and realized that I didn't bring my mobile phone, so I immediately ran back to get my mobile phone.

In just a few minutes, when I opened the car door for the first time, I was shocked!

Xiaoxuan and Doctor Fan came up at some point, she sat next to each other in the back row, and the snake girl sat in the front passenger seat.

Xiaoxuan had a smile on her face, she said: "Brother Feng, we are all good friends, why not have a meal together, don't be too outsider."

Doctor Fan nodded in agreement: "That's right, I'm hungry too."

The snake girl turned her head and said with a smile: "Sister Fan, Sister Xuan, just right, I just told Brother Xiang to ask you to eat together."

Xiaoxuan clasped her fingernails, and said in a cold tone, "Oh, that sister snake has a heart."

I have a chill down my back.

I know Xiaoxuan's expression and tone very well. It is a sign that she is about to get angry, and once Xiaoxuan gets angry, I dare not provoke her.

So, my best way to deal with it now is to keep silent, silence is golden.

At the foot of Huaguo Mountain, there are two roads to go up the mountain, one is a bluestone path for people to walk, and the other road can be driven up, and there is a parking place on the top of the mountain.

We didn't want to walk, so we chose to drive up. When the car was halfway up the mountain, I suddenly frowned.

I saw a "big earth bag" in the distance.

Cypress trees grew on the big bag of land, but the land below the bag was open, and a few scattered people camped there.

Seeing me pull on the handbrake, Xiaoxuan frowned and asked, "Yunfeng, is that a mound of soil?"

I nodded: "Late Warring States, the scale is not small."

Xiaoxuan immediately covered her mouth in surprise, and she whispered: "We are so lucky? We can bump into the big tomb even if we go out to eat. I think the earth is so high, it can't be an imperial tomb, right?"

I shook my head and said, "You think too much, it can't be the imperial mausoleum, but it is indeed possible that it is at the first level of Liehou."

Xiaoxuan immediately excitedly said: "Then when shall we do it? I've been itching to do work recently."

"Move your hair!" I said, "Sister Xuan, use your little head to think about it. Is there anything left for us in such an obvious place? It must be [-]% taken by someone first."

Xiaoxuan said stubbornly, "Then what if it's a new pot?"

"No case!"

I pointed out the window and said, "Even a three-year-old child who eats shit can tell that this place is the seal of an ancient tomb. I estimate that there are no fewer than fifty robbery holes underneath."

Xiaoxuan curled her lips and stopped talking.

People in the industry have a trick to see if a bulging place is sealed with soil. You can't just see a bulge and say that there is a big tomb underground, that would be a joke.

First of all, the height of this "soil bag" must be within a certain range of values.

Remember, the earthen seals of imperial mausoleums are generally ten to fifteen feet high, those at the marquis level are three to five feet high, and those at the official history level are two to five feet high. within range.

Convert the number of feet into meters, and you can tell by visual inspection that the character does not meet the specifications.

The identity of this person depends on how high the grave is!

The ancient tomb hierarchy was strict, and people generally did not dare to violate the regulations.

Someone will definitely say, I will!Now go all over the world to find such a big earth mountain, if you recognize an ancient emperor's tomb, wouldn't it be a surprise?

Don't be silly, there are countless imperial mausoleums, this opportunity will not come to my generation, let alone the present generation.

Regardless of whether I found it or not, I have studied it a long time ago. For example, the twelve imperial tombs of the Eastern Han Dynasty are located near Jiaozuo today, those of the Northern Wei Dynasty are on Beiman Mountain, and those of the Eastern Jin and Six Dynasties are either around Nanjing or in Danjiangkou area.

In the Tang Dynasty, except for the Mausoleum of Zhaozong and the Mausoleum of Emperor Ai, one in Shengchi and the other in Heze, the other Tang tombs were hidden in the Guanzhong area of ​​Shaanxi.

The imperial tombs of the Northern Song Dynasty are concentrated in Gongxian County, Henan Province. As for the tombs of the Southern Song Dynasty, except for the last three emperors, all of them are buried in the area of ​​Shaoxing today.

Xixia's is at the foot of Helan Mountain in Yinchuan.

In the Liao Dynasty, it was on a certain stone mountain near today's Balin Right Banner.

The emperors of the Jin Dynasty were buried in the Fangshan area of ​​Beijing. The emperors of the Yuan Dynasty are the most damn hard to find, and anyone who can find them by accident will be mad.

Because of the "secret burial" adopted by all the emperors of the Yuan Dynasty, there are no hills in the cemetery, and the burial place is rarely known.The current Genghis Khan Mausoleum in Inner Mongolia is a fake, just a tourist attraction.

However, according to my research and exchanges with some experts, we all guess that the emperors of the Yuan Dynasty may have been buried in a valley called "Qichari Valley" in ancient books. As for where this place is in Inner Mongolia today, I guess really do not know.

Next, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the Ming Tombs in Changping and the Eastern Tombs of the Qing Dynasty and the Western Tombs of the Qing Dynasty have become tourist attractions. There is nothing to say about this.

The big earth bag in the middle of Huaguo Mountain in Jishou City must be an ancient tomb, and it has been [-]% stolen!I wonder why the local cultural relics bureau didn't set up a sign to protect such an obvious place.

That night, we ate barbecue at a food stall on the mountain. There was a dish of roast goose on the table. In order to liven up the atmosphere, I said loudly, "Listen, I will write a poem for you with this dish!"

The three of them looked at me in unison.

I cleared my throat and read aloud: "Goose, goose, drink with a knife around the neck, pluck the hair and add water, light the fire and cover the pot."

The snake girl applauded vigorously. She said, Brother Xiang, you are too talented. After she finished speaking, she swallowed the meat on the mutton skewers in one gulp, then looked at me intentionally or unintentionally, and slowly pulled out the bamboo stick from her mouth. , and finally made a "tsk".
