Chapter 43 Discuss a solution
"How is it? Have you set the right side?"
I kept working until it was getting dark and asked me.
"Border line" is jargon, which means using Luoyang shovel to explore the boundary shape of the ancient tomb, and use this to determine whether it is a rectangular tomb or a square tomb.
I wiped my sweat and said, "It should be almost the same, about 34 meters long and about 17 meters wide. This is really a big deal. How big is the imperial tomb of Xixia?" (Compared with the Central Plains, Xixia tombs are generally small.)
I followed the sideline I discovered and walked more than a dozen steps northwest, then turned a corner, and then walked in the middle.
He stopped his head in the middle and said, "From my experience, the main tomb room is probably under my feet."
"Yunfeng Wenbin, you can just dig a one-meter hole from here."
After saying that, he shook his head slightly: "I hope God will bless you, not to be a fully grouted tomb, but preferably a half grout tomb."
When we get the order, we do it immediately.
I took back what I said before.
Working here is not unscrupulous. There is also a hidden danger. Climbing in July is like raising dogs in the desert. We are all Dangxiang people. Now we are equivalent to digging people’s ancestral graves.
At around 8:30, we dug a stolen hole with a diameter of one meter and leading straight to the underground.
I stood at the bottom of the stolen hole and shone it with a flashlight.
I was immediately frightened!
All are off-white cement... everywhere, they are all cement.
There is no voucher and treasure roof, and no bluestone tomb bricks are seen.
Everything that comes to your eyes is full of uneven cement.
Seeing this scene, the trace of luck in our hearts was shattered.
He looked disappointed and shook his head and said, "Oh... I don't cry until I see the coffin. I will come whatever I am afraid of. I can be sure that this is a full tomb. Come up."
Douyazi poked the shovel down hard.
There was only a "clang sound!" and sparks appeared.
Douyazi was dissatisfied and shouted: "Put your head! You have to think of a solution! I obviously smell the meat! How can I just smell the smell but can't eat it!"
"Well...you guys come up first and have a drink of water."
Xiaoxuan set a fire, Douyazai and I climbed up from the thief hole, and everyone sat together to discuss what to do.
I told us his thoughts first, and my heart trembled when I heard this.
Which nobleman from Xixia was buried here? The tomb owner is definitely not an ordinary person.
"Semi-watering tomb", I would like to describe it.
The cement components in ancient times were generally yellow sand mud, lime, and glutinous rice slurry.
Put a coffin in the main tomb chamber, and then use five hardwood boards to enclose the coffin to seal it. It can be imagined that a closed wooden rack was made for the coffin, and then a hole was made at the top to pour a lot of cement.
Cement sealed the entire coffin, weighing several tons.
The tombs in Baoying County and Taizhou are like this.
Back then, the archaeological team wanted to open it, but it was a waste of time. The coffin did not look like a coffin, and it was a big cement lump!
Ordinary small cranes cannot be lifted, so they can only be lifted out of the tomb chamber.
"Full tomb" not only refers to cement-sealing coffin, but also refers to the use of hundreds of tons of cement to fill the entire tomb chamber with a diameter of 30 meters.
The coffins, burial objects, and all kinds of things were sealed into the cement.
There is no tomb door, no tomb roof, and no patio, just a huge rectangular cement block with a length of 30 meters.
How to open this?
Everyone thinks, how to start this?
How to get in?
The way to deal with Jishi Jisha tomb is to dig a horizontal well, but it is not working now. We have determined whether the pipe is digging a horizontal well from which direction, and finally it will touch cement.
There is no sword or gun, and no water or fire.
It is more like a turtle shell than a turtle shell, so I say this is my brother's behavior.
At this time, Brother Yu thought about it, frowned and said, "Put your head, what if we use explosives? Blow it open!"
He shook his head immediately: "The burial objects in the coffin and burial objects in the tomb are mixed with cement. If explosives are used, even if they can be blown up by chance, all the burial objects will be blown up, which will lose their value."
Immediately afterwards, he said to the head: "No matter who was buried here, I guess, the owner of the tomb must have made great decisions at the beginning."
Everyone fell into silence for a moment, only the sound of dry firewood burning was heard.
"Have it!"
Douyazai suddenly slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "I thought of a good idea! I can definitely open this cement tomb!"
"Oh? Let's hear it."
"Fengzi, do you think this is OK?"
"We widen the hole to two meters, draw a door shape on the cement block, and then use an impact drill to punch it!"
"The impact drill is not as powerful as explosives and will not damage the burial objects. Once we encounter cultural relics, we can stop immediately! Besides! It is just cement and has no steel bars! It will take a minute to open this thing!"
Douyazai was proud after finishing his speech.
I spitted a cigarette in his face and smiled and said, "Okay, Mr. Dou, where is your impact drill?"
"Also, even if you have an impact drill, where can you get electricity? Manpower or wind power?"
Douyazi stammered and couldn't speak.
A few seconds later, Douyazi slapped his thigh again and said I'm going to do it again!
"Brother Yu! Take a chisel and hammer! Chisel it a little bit! This one does not require electricity! It will not hurt cultural relics!"
After hearing this, I immediately said, "You are a bad idea again. If you do that, we will come here to pick up Brother Yu in fifty years. At that time, I will let my grandson come for me."
Brother Yu laughed happily when he heard this.
Xiaoxuan smiled, and a rare smile appeared on her serious face.
Lao Fu, who had been listening, suddenly spoke at this moment, and we all looked at him.
He said: "Several people, I know that Lao Guo has an impact drill in the test field. I saw it last time. It should be used to build a house and lay the foundation. There is also a small diesel generator there, you can see.
...”
"Uncle Fu, really? Are you sure?"
Lao Fu nodded again and said OK.
We used to listen to Douyazi's words as jokes, but now it's different.
As the saying goes, "Dao horse is a living horse, you have to try everything, and I and I have begun to consider the feasibility of this method."
If you think about it carefully, it is really possible.
There are indeed examples of impact drills in the tomb. Recently, the large sarcophagus of the imperial concubine Yang Kun in Xi'an, first used an impact drill to tear out the cracks, then cut them down along the cracks with a chainsaw, and finally cut them out.
It costs more than 100 yuan, and after being sold abroad, it was assembled.
Also, if you don’t believe it, go to a foreign museum to see. Many large stone carvings have cracks on the surface, which is all done.
Douyazi is a dreamer who wakes up with one word.
In other words, we can regard the entire cement tomb as a giant sarcophagus up to 30 meters long! Just break it apart!
If explosives cannot be used, this may be the only way!
I immediately said, "Please go back to the test field? I can get back after two days at most."
Seeing that Jack's head was a little hesitant, I said anxiously: "What if this big cement block is sealed with Li Xian's coffin, Jack's head! We must not let it go!"
Men are gambled. The more they can’t see things, the more curious they are, the more they want them. I don’t believe that any civilian can be blocked like this.
In addition to the Tears and the Wonderful Birds, the legendary woodcut version of the six Tripitakas, Wuzhu, and four-headed and four-sided bronze Guanyin! These are all superior cultural relics of Arm. If one of them can be found, this trip will be worth it.
"What are you still hesitating about when you put your head on it! It's useless to watch it, do it!" I said anxiously.
"Wenbin, why not like this, you two will go back to the experimental field together."
"Need not."
I immediately stood up: "I recognize the way. Brother Yu, stay here to protect everyone, Uncle Fu, give me your hunting rifle."
"I'll set out now."
