Chapter 707 (2/2)
Several foreigners were killed, but the partridge whistle and the white military division were not surprised. This is a unique skill handed down by Chen Yulou's family. It can hear the location of underground tombs, the spatial distribution of underground palaces and the distribution of tombs with a loud sound reflected by different media.
In Chen Yulou's family tradition of fighting for gold, he is best at finding traces of tombs by listening to the sound, observing mud marks and grass color. On weekdays, Chen Yulou likes to look for big tombs in thunderstorms. Only because the huge thunder in the air sweeps the earth, it is clear to Chen Yulou that there is any abnormal space underground. The last animal with such ability is a bat.
Chen Yulou closed his eyes and listened carefully to the echo. He could tell where the cavity was and where the solid soil was. The others were even careful to breathe.
But when Chen Yulou opened, he shook his head and whispered: ”I'm afraid we have been washed into the hinterland of Lishan Mountain by the water of the underground river. The Shihuang mausoleum is not under the Qianli Mingtang at all, but directly embedded in the hinterland of Lishan Mountain. I always thought it was just a legend to open a mountain as a mausoleum. Now, I'm afraid it's true. There is a huge space ahead. The scale of the whole Shihuang mausoleum is amazing!”
The partridge whistle added: ”Feng Shui in the Qin and Han Dynasties stresses that death is like life. It is different from the Feng Shui yinzhai technique of fuze descendants and future generations in the following dynasties. At that time, the princes and nobles paid attention to the rise of corpse decomposition and the world after death. They should live the same life after death. Therefore, tombs are often buried with the items used by the tomb owner and the treasures loved by the tomb owner.”
”Sometimes, the Yin House is even arranged according to the pattern of the Yang house before his death. In the tomb room, there are channels for the dead to flow out of the patrol tomb room, and even various burial rooms with different functions are arranged. Since Qin Shihuang has arranged the array of Yin corpses returning to the Yang, he must have made plans for his resurrection in the future. His mausoleum will have a more obvious concept that death is like life 。”
”That's why the whole mausoleum feels like a city wall.” Chen Yulou said, ”do you mean these tombs are the roads for the parade after the first emperor's resurrection?”
”Not just the first emperor!” said the partridge whistle with a frozen look, ”don't forget where it leads?”
Chen Yulou suddenly said, ”yes, how could the first emperor be resurrected alone? He must be resurrected together with his whole empire. His internal attendants, his concubines, his army and his general, together with the whole Qin court, return to the world and rule China again. No wonder the scale of the first imperial mausoleum is so large. I'm afraid it's not built after the yinzhai at all.”
”It's a Xianyang city built underground and in the mountainside! According to historical records, Qin Shihuang decorated the tomb with pearls, imitated the Sun Moon Star City, took mercury as the river, and simulated four blasphemies and rivers. Such a person who would rule the world in the tomb after death, of course, the tomb he arranged for rebirth after death would not be like an ordinary tomb.”
”He didn't think he was dead at all. Instead, he thought his empire was only a temporary sleep, so he would build Xianyang City in the hinterland of Lishan Mountain for himself and the whole huge army to sleep with the burial, draw vitality from the dragon vein and Yinhe River, and intend to return to the world one day in the future. This road should be prepared for the Yin corpses of the Qin terracotta warriors, but the emperor was restored After living, his army will float from the Yinhe River, return to Xianyang from this road, and guard the first emperor. ”
