Chapter 147: The Palace of the Prosperous Tang Dynasty
After confirming that there was no danger, the four entered the ancient tomb through the entrance of the cave.
After entering the ancient tomb, they could vaguely see the surrounding environment with the light of the flashlight.
Lin Yi's yin and yang eyes are open, and he can completely see the situation around him.
The thief's cave was right as he had predicted in advance, it led directly to the tomb chamber where the tomb owner's coffin was located!
The layout of this ancient tomb is particularly large. The tomb chamber alone is more than 200 square meters, which shows the heroism and generosity of the owner of the tomb.
What kind of tomb is this? It’s clearly a palace of the underworld!
The Hall of Hades has been the place where the coffin of the tomb owner has been placed since ancient times.
The "Burial Sutra" clearly states that the Underworld Hall, also known as the Cining Hall, is the core part of the mausoleum. Whether buried together or alone, the tomb owner should wear large clothes and sleep peacefully in the coffin.
Then cover the coffin.
Even if the body of the tomb owner cannot be placed in the coffin for some reason, the clothes, hats and shoes of the tomb owner will be placed in the coffin for burial.
But this ancient tomb is very special. There is no coffin in the Palace of Hades!
In the center of the Hades Hall, there is only an armillary sphere.
Ji Yi's eyes fell on the tomb wall of the ancient tomb again. The surrounding tomb walls were made of large stones fixed with iron bars, and most of the ground was also made of stones. Only the area under their feet was
Paved with green bricks!
Lin Yi said, "This should be a Tang tomb!"
Da Jinya looked at Lin Yi in surprise and asked, "Master Lin, how did you know?"
He is an antique dealer, and he is very knowledgeable about the gadgets of various dynasties. He didn't even notice it, but Lin Yi actually knew about it?
Lin Yi took a flashlight and shined a light on the tomb wall and said, "Look at the tomb wall and the ground. The big stones are fixed with iron bars, and then the empty spaces are paved with blue bricks. This is the unique beauty of Tang tombs!"
The main purpose of the empty position is to hide the wind and gather energy. If there is no such empty position in the tomb, no matter how good the feng shui is, the treasure cave will be in vain.
The blue brick floor in the Tang Dynasty was very thin. It was greatly improved in the Yuan Dynasty, but it was still an easy place to break through.
In the Ming Dynasty, there were talented people like Guanshan Taibao, and the princes and nobles liked to use seven spokes and seven coupons as the base, that is, seven vertical, seven horizontal and fourteen layers of blue bricks, which were more than three meters thick.
Later, in the Qing Dynasty, the virtual position was still retained, but it was changed to a very small size, only a few inches in size, so no one could enter.
Because the empty space is the weakest part of the tomb, traps are often installed here.
That businessman from another province was able to accurately dig the robbery hole under the empty position, which shows that his ability to divide gold into fixed holes is very superb!
When it comes to dividing money and setting points, I am probably one step ahead of businessmen from other provinces!
As far as Lin Yi knows, there should be only three people who can be second only to himself.
That is, the three direct disciples of Zhang Sanlianzi, one is named Jin Abacus and the other is named Elder Chen.
Jin Abacus should be this provincial businessman.
Elder Liao Chen is the captain who taught Jin Ding acupoints on partridge whistles.
As for the third one, sorry, Ji Yi forgot about it.
There is also Zhang Sanlianzi. After all, he wrote "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique". His ability to divide gold and fix acupuncture points is undoubtedly the best.
I guess it’s about the same as myself!
Da Jinya couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said, "Awesome, Mr. Lin! I didn't expect that you still know these things! You are better than me!"
Lao Hu grinned and said, "Master Jin, don't underestimate Lao Lin, he knows a lot of things! This is just the tip of the iceberg."
Lin Yi chuckled, waved his hand and said, "Just so-so, so-so."
But now Fatty is a little depressed.
The long-awaited Zhou Tomb has turned into a Tang Tomb!
The key is that after he came in, his eyes were darting around and he didn't find the coffin!
Isn’t this special girl’s trip in vain?
"Old Lin, don't worry about whether it's a Zhou tomb or a Tang tomb. Where's the coffin? Where's the treasure? That businessman from another province wouldn't even let go of the coffin!"
When the fat man asked this, Lao Hu was also full of doubts and asked, "Yes, Lao Lin, what's going on?"
Lin Yi looked around and said, "The empty tombs are usually hidden in the blue bricks of the underworld. Once the tomb bricks of the empty tombs are broken, the mechanism will be triggered. According to the layout of the Tang tomb, there are quicksand and nests."
Well, stone piles and the like may fall down and completely seal the Hades Palace. They would rather destroy the empty place where wind and energy are stored than make the buried artifacts easier for tomb robbers. The location of this blue brick
, I didn’t see any mechanism. In my opinion, this ancient tomb was probably abandoned before the repairs were completed!”
In the ancient tomb with a big golden tooth, he couldn't help but be afraid. He took the flashlight and shined it everywhere, and finally landed on the tomb wall. He quickly said, "Master Lin, you three masters, come over and take a look. This tomb wall
There’s a mural!”
All eyes are focused on the past.
On the wall of that tomb, there are murals painted on them. They are none other than the patterns in the "Sixty-Four Elephants Pushing Back Pictures" written by Li Chunfeng in the Tang Dynasty!
The Tuibei diagram is arranged according to the names of the 64 hexagrams in "The Book of Changes". They are matched according to the heavenly stems and earthly branches. They circulate in the order of Jia Zi and Yichou. There are a total of sixty images. Each image is numbered with the stems and branches. It mainly includes: one hexagram image and one image.
It is composed of images, prophecies and a rhymed poem "Ode to the Saying", consisting of four parts. It predicts prosperity and chaos in future generations.
It is said that the deduction can still be continued even after reaching 60 elephants.
However, Li Chunfeng felt too tired, so he simply gave up the deduction and switched to pushing back.
In the last hexagram of "Tui Bei Tu", it is written, "There are countless things to say, so it is better to push back and go home."
It's a pity that in his great years, he was extremely talented, but he didn't work hard, but only thought about enjoying himself, so when he was alive, he was just a small fifth-rank official.
Tell yourself about this, well, there is no point in being outstanding at work, you might as well enjoy it, push your back, pinch your feet, and kill the most likely chickens!
Li Chunfeng was so down-to-earth that he had to perform 60 predictions before pushing the back!
The push-back picture on the mural in front of you can be regarded as the initial version of Li Chunfeng.
It’s just that the pattern at the beginning was still intact, but by the end there was only half of the painting left!
It seems that something unexpected happened and the work was stopped!
However, this also confirmed Lin Yi's guess that this place is probably an abandoned tomb!
Forget about the baby, there is no coffin!
The fat man scolded with some dissatisfaction, "Li Chunfeng is too arrogant! He built a fake tomb to fool us, and he didn't even bury himself here. It's too much!"
Lin Yi shook his head and said with a smile, "Little Fatty, although Li Chunfeng is very famous in the Feng Shui world, he was only a fifth-rank official in the Tang Dynasty. It is impossible for him to use such a grand Tang tomb. This one is probably the emperor's.
A relative, maybe a princess or something."
"Don't worry about the royal family. Now we are playing in vain. I don't know what the owner of the tomb thinks. It is not a good boy to give up halfway!" As the fat man said, he boldly looked around.
Sudden!
His pupils shrank suddenly and he shouted nervously, "Old Lin, Old Hu, there... there is someone over there!"
