Chapter 696: The Identity of the Sufferer

 Chapter 696 The identity of the sufferer

The brick in Zhang Xinya's hand was square and much larger than the other bricks in the tomb, but it was not as thick. At most, it was only as thick as two palms stacked together. Compared to the bricks of this size

The bricks and tiles used in tombs can be considered as thin as cicada wings.

I hurried over and took the tomb brick in my hand to inspect it again and again.

I can't help it, there's something strange about this brick.

At first glance, the size and specifications of this brick are very similar to tomb-carved bricks, and they are of extremely high specifications. However, there are no obvious carving patterns on the surface, which makes people suspicious.

I looked at it over and over for a long time before I noticed that this brick had several raised prisms at the corners.

"That's right, this is it. These tomb carving bricks should have reliefs on them. The piece we have is at the corner. The relief pattern only extends to one corner of the brick. If you don't look carefully, you might think it's...

It's because the firing was rough and not smooth enough."

I weighed the square bricks in my hand and said hurriedly: "Look again, there should be many more than just this one."

Zhang Xinya simply cut open the sack with a knife, and with a bang, a lot of things were poured out of it. There were a lot of broken porcelain pieces, all of which were firewood pieces, but there were no complete porcelain. In addition, there were some miscellaneous things.

Things, including poorly preserved cloth and the like, in short, as long as they can be sold for some money, this tomb robber packed almost all of them and prepared to take them away. It can really be said that he dug three feet into the ground and left nothing behind.

No more.

This kind of method is somewhat unethical and can easily cause trouble, but the word "greed" is written across people's hearts. We are not surprised by this kind of behavior and have no time to sneer at these people. After checking these tomb bricks, I shook my head slightly. The number was still not enough.

Can't be spliced ​​together.

Brother Yaozi and the others immediately rummaged through other sacks, and sure enough, they found some tomb-carved bricks one after another in other sacks, almost a few of them in each sack.

Who is Brother Yaozi? He is almost familiar with the dark activities involved in digging graves. After thinking about it for a moment, he understands the intention of these tomb robbers. He sneered and said: "These people are interesting, but they have an eye for gold but not gold."

Inlaid with jade, two priceless pieces of complete porcelain from the firewood kiln passed through my hands. I just thought they were ordinary porcelain. Instead, I decided that the entire side of the tomb carved bricks in the tomb chamber was the most valuable. I have to say that although I was mistaken, it was still worth it.

Not stupid, if those two pieces of porcelain are just ordinary Song porcelain, their value is really not as high as this whole side of tomb-carved bricks. This whole side of tomb-carved bricks has extremely high artistic value. Many people are willing to put it outside.

The price is high, but the key is to be complete. It must be complete in order to be sold at a good price.

It seemed that a few people had already made up their minds to ditch Tieguai Li and go it alone, but they had evil intentions and were worried about plotting against each other, so they simply separated the tomb bricks and took them out. In this way, no one could leave the others alone.

Once you get rich, it’s easy to make calculations, but in the end, one of you will get out alive!”

A large number of tomb carved bricks were dismantled, which is a lot of parts. It is also a hard and meticulous job to figure out the content on the tomb carved bricks. A few of us cleared out a piece in the tomb chamber.

area, began to piece together these tomb-carved bricks, like a puzzle. Unfortunately, none of these people really had the so-called genius with an IQ of 250, so it took a lot of effort to piece together the tomb-carved bricks.

Ever since, a whole picture has appeared before our eyes.

On the picture is a woman with fluttering clothes, a high bun with clouds and flowers, with clouds hovering above her head, thick ink and colorful colors at her feet, and precious wood behind her. She has an indescribable fairy spirit. Chinese paintings are not like those of Westerners.

Paintings are always so detailed. What China pays attention to is elegance and subtlety, or in other words, it pays attention to a kind of charm. Whether it is left on the paper or on the wall of the tomb, it is all about charm.

For the main purpose, the relief sculpture made of carved bricks in this tomb really highlights the aura of the woman and makes people fascinated, as if she is not in the world, and people can't help but worship her.

Even Zhang Xinya, who is also a woman, couldn't help but exclaimed: "What a style!"

As a result, Lao Bai walked around for a few times, but the look of doubt on his face became more and more intense, and he suddenly asked me: "Little Weizi, I know a lot about you, but I don't know much about the rules in the tomb."

Got it, didn’t you say before that most of the murals, texts, etc. in tombs have something to do with the tomb owner’s life? Then I ask you, are there any murals in tombs that don’t depict things that are related to you, but instead depict gods and goddesses?

of?"

I thought about it and said: "It's not impossible. Most of them were in the Tang Dynasty, and also in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. However, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Taoism was the main religion, and starting from the Tang Dynasty, Buddhism was the main religion, and it was in the west.

There are more, but... such situations are rare. How can I put it, if people die and become ghosts, what's going on if you draw a god next to you? Do you want the god to bless you, or to stare at you?

What? The person who drew this thing is either a very fanatical believer or a very bold person. Normal people would not act like this."

"That's right. No matter how I look at this painting, it's not a human being. Yes, Juebi is a god."

Lao Bai murmured: "This should be a female Yi."

It is said that the female Yi drums and songs are used to harmonize the world and to grow hundreds of grains, animals, and plants.

This female Yi was originally a goddess in mythology who controlled the growth of all things in spring and summer, but I don’t know what happened. Later, it was passed down, and she became a flower god who specialized in taking care of flowers and trees.

If you look closely at the paintings carved on the tomb bricks, you will see that there are flowers under the woman's feet and trees behind her. At first glance, she does look like a flower god. It is normal for Lao Bai to say this.

"Illegal..."

I shook my head slightly, feeling that this shouldn't be the case, so I observed it carefully, and even started to fumble around to check.

This relief must have been painted originally, but the tombs have collapsed. It can be seen that when Liu Yuan, the subjugated king, was building his own tomb, the Southern Han Dynasty was already in dire straits, so people's hearts were not in control, and the craftsmen were also exhausted.

It's just a matter of coping. The craftsmanship is not up to par, and the sealing is definitely not in place. Once the airflow in the tomb communicates with the outside, don't expect the things inside to be well preserved, let alone the colors on the murals.

No matter how bright it was before, after time has polished it off, all that is left is a dark puddle.

But it is black. It has different colors and looks different when it turns black. If you look carefully, you can still guess its original appearance.

After rubbing the carbon-colored paint on my fingertips, you can see some metallic luster under the light.

"Cinnabar!"

Brother Yaozi checked other places and said, "Yes, except for this woman, everything else is covered in cinnabar. Whether it is clouds or flowers and trees, they are all red!"

The clouds are red…

A flash of inspiration passed away.

My eyes lit up and I couldn't help but laugh: "If you didn't mention the clouds, I really wouldn't have thought of it. Red clouds, this is the Red Cloud Banquet, and this woman is Suxin!!"

Lao Bai scratched his head: "Is it famous? I've never heard of it! This name is just like those names on the internet that are so vulgar that they make you pee..."

"I see you haven't done your homework properly."

I shook my head slightly, but I didn't dare to ridicule Lao Bai. I had no idea. If I hadn't done a lot of research on Liu Yun beforehand and checked the information carefully, I would have never heard of this person.

Liu Yuan was lustful, debauched and immoral. In his life, he had many women. These women are the best proof of his immorality. I wonder if the old Zhao family always kept their words concise and to the point in order to promote the correctness of their regime.

In the history books of China, these women were given special mention, and many of them left their names.

This jasmine is one of them. It is said that this girl is like a fairy. She often wears a white shirt and carries jasmine flowers. She looks fairy-like from a distance. Liu Yun was very fond of her and built a fragrant garden specifically for the jasmine.

Famous flowers were planted in the garden. When the flowers were in full bloom in spring, Su Xin was ordered to lead the palace ladies in a flower fighting ceremony. Whenever the flowers bloomed, Liu Yuan personally opened the garden gate at dawn and let the palace ladies in to pick flower branches. The selections were all ready.

, immediately closed the garden gate, and went to the palace together to win the battle with flowers and branches. Those who won the flower fight were honored by the emperor that night; those who lost the flower fight were fined money and prepared a grand feast to celebrate the victory of the winner. In the Fanglin Garden, all the people were excepted.

In addition to the flowers, many lychee trees were planted. When ripe, the lychees look like pearls and are bright red in color, as bright as clouds. Liu Yuan held a grand feast under the flowers, euphemistically calling it the "Red Cloud Banquet."

This is all the records about this woman, but what happened to her later is not mentioned in the history books and no one knows.

However, given Liu Yuan's mean and ungrateful nature, it was somewhat predictable.

Compared with the famous names of Liu Yuan and Fan Huzi, Suxin is relatively unknown. In addition, the Southern Han Dynasty was not a unified dynasty, but a small and peaceful court. There was nothing significant in the history books, so Suxin became even more famous.

It's inconspicuous. A few of us didn't know it was normal. We just took a look at the information and didn't think of this person at the first time. It's completely normal.

"It's really weird. There's something wrong everywhere in this tomb. It seems that it was Su Xin who was pestering Ling Ying and her father. However, she was obviously suppressed. Her fate was not good when she was alive, and it was even worse after her death.

, that’s why even Yinsi thinks it’s natural for her to take revenge, otherwise her grievances will be too great to bury!

However, look at the treatment in this tomb and the richness of the burial objects. This is just courtesy. There are so many dead people lying outside, all of them were Liu Yun's women. They were killed with a knife and thrown in. They didn't even have a coffin.

In comparison, it seems that her treatment is better, but why is all this happening? If she is treated with courtesy, why is she suppressed?"

I said to myself: "Also, how did you suppress her? We also looked at the tomb. There is no special decoration. Could it be that it was based on fate? This makes sense."

"Why are you still thinking about this!"

Lao Bai said helplessly: "Needless to say, this woman must be in this tomb, just keep looking for it. The key... there is not even a tomb door in this tomb. It seems that the tomb ends here, the tomb door must be
Chapter completed!
