Chapter 225: Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor (1)


After I got home and picked up my hiking bag, I hurried to the train station, got on the two o'clock train, and headed towards Shanxi.

While on the train, I began to recall the records in my mind about the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang.

The first is the record about the Mausoleum of the First Emperor of Qin in the Historical Records of Qin Shihuang: "When the First Emperor came to the throne, he passed through Mount Li to govern, and united the world.

The world only sent more than 700,000 people to the throne, passed through three springs, and poured down copper.

When he arrived at the coffin, the palace was filled with treasures and treasures from all the officials.

He ordered the craftsmen to make crossbow arrows and shoot them at the sight of those who came close.

The mercury was used to infuse hundreds of rivers and seas, with astronomy at the top and geography at the bottom.

Use mermaid ointment as a candle to save those who are immortal for a long time.

The Second Emperor said: "If the first emperor had no sons in the harem, it would be inappropriate to leave."

They all ordered to die, and many died.

Now that the burial has been carried out, or if the craftsmen are the reason, everyone knows about it, and Zang Zhong will be released immediately.

After the major event is over, Zang has been shut down, Zhongxian is closed, and the outer Xian gate is lowered.

Those who have closed the craftsman Zang will never come back.

The trees and grass resemble mountains. " To put it simply, Qin Shihuang used more than 700,000 people to build the mausoleum, dug down to underground springs, made bronze coffins, and placed countless rare treasures in the tomb.

Let the craftsmen who built the mausoleum make crossbow arrows, and everyone who approaches the mausoleum will be shot to death.

Mercury was poured into the tomb chamber to symbolize the rivers and rivers, and the top of the tomb was filled with luminous pearls to symbolize the stars in the sky.

They also used whale oil to make lamps that could burn for thousands of years.

Qin II had all the harem of Qin Shihuang buried with him, and all 700,000 craftsmen were imprisoned in the mausoleum.

The Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang is divided into two parts: the cemetery area and the burial area.

The cemetery covers an area of ​​nearly 8 square kilometers, with an outer building and an inner city.

The enclosure is in the shape of a square cone.

The seal of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum forms a three-level staircase, shaped like an overturned bucket, with an approximately square bottom, with a bottom area of ​​about 250,000 square meters and a height of 115 meters.

However, due to more than two thousand years of wind and rain erosion and man-made destruction, the area at the bottom of the seal is now reduced.

It is about 120,000 square meters, with a height of 87 meters and a circumference of 2,000 meters.

The total area of ​​the entire mausoleum is 56.25 square kilometers.

Building materials are shipped from Hubei, Sichuan and other places.

In order to prevent the river from washing the tomb, Qin Shihuang also ordered that the north-south water flow be changed to east-west direction.

The underground palace is located below the top of the mound and its surroundings, 35 meters deep from the ground level, 170 meters long from east to west, and 145 meters wide from north to south.

The main body and tomb chamber are both rectangular in shape.

The tomb chamber is located in the center of the underground palace, 15 meters high and the size of a standard football field.

In 210 BC, Prime Minister Li Si reported to Qin Shihuang that he had brought 720,000 people to build the Lishan Mausoleum, which had been dug so deep that it seemed to be underground.

After hearing this, Qin Shihuang ordered "to move another three hundred feet aside".

The saying "three hundred feet away" makes the location of Qinling's underground palace even more confusing.

Folk legend once said that the underground palace of the Qin Mausoleum is in Lishan Mountain.

There is an underground passage between Lishan Mountain and the Qinling Tomb.

Whenever it is cloudy and rainy, "yin soldiers" pass by in the underground passage, and it is very lively.

It is reported that archaeologists have conducted many investigations based on this legend, but they have never been able to find this legendary underground passage.

Another point worth noting is that after Qin Shihuang unified China, he made five large-scale patrols and reached the eastern seashore three times, carving stones to praise his virtues.

It is worth noting that according to historical records, in the thirty-fifth year of Qin Shihuang 1 212 BC, "a stone was erected on the boundary of Qu on the East China Sea, which was regarded as the east gate of Qin."

The east gate of the empire was erected on the sea in Qu County, southwest of present-day Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province. door.

For more than 2000 years, no one has ever thought about linking it with the two simultaneous projects of building the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang.

It was not until the discovery of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum that interested people suddenly discovered that the location of the "Qin Dong Gate" happened to be directly east of the Qin capital Xianyang and the east gate avenue of Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum.

The Qin East Gate of Qin Shihuang’s Mausoleum in Xianyang happens to be located at the same latitude Regardless of whether it was a coincidence or not, there were no instruments for measuring dimensions at that time.

How they did it has become an unsolved mystery in the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang.

Of course, this is only a record in historical records, and there are more folk legends about the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang.

However, most of the legends sound too mysterious and have no credibility at all.

The Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang is in Lishan Mountain.

Grandpa once said that he had been to see the dragon veins in Lishan Mountain.

It was the most suitable place for burials that grandpa had ever seen.

In other words, the feng shui of the dragon veins in Lishan Mountain was quite good.

Since Qin Shihuang was the first emperor in China An emperor who unified the world naturally had his own merits.

The only possibility now is that Li Si, the designer of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum, is from the Soul Sect.

Li Si made a great contribution to history.

He proposed the abolition of feudalism, the unification of writing, the unification of weights and measures, the unification of currency, and the construction of roads, roads and vehicles on the same track.

Including the famous burning of books and entrapment of Confucians in history was all suggested by Li Si to Qin Shihuang.

Therefore, this person is of great importance, and it is reasonable to be able to design the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang.

Coupled with the legend that he is a member of the Soul Sect, it is more likely to build a tomb that has not been stolen for thousands of years.

As for what Ji Huaichu said, it is not impossible that the first generation leader of the Soul Sect is buried in the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, but it is just unlikely.

Guanzhu Bai told me before that the founders of Soul Sect, Yuan Sect and Burial Sect worshiped the same master, although Guanzhu Bai did not tell me in which era they existed.

But judging from the ancient tomb under the river in Longmen where Lao Bai and I went, there were prison cows inside.

It is very likely that the Soul Gate existed in ancient times, otherwise there would be no statues with human heads and snake bodies.

Although this statue with a human head and a snake body is not necessarily Nuwa, it is definitely related to Nuwa.

Thinking about it now, the woman Guanzhu Bai was talking about at that time who turned their three brothers against each other should be the woman painted on the statue with the head of a human and the body of a snake.

Since this woman is the first blood widow, I'm afraid Ouyang Yuetong's past life is closely related to the blood widow.

I could see Ouyang Yuetong's appearance both times when I saw the Blood Widow.

It was definitely not a coincidence, but there was one thing I couldn't figure out.

Ouyang Yuetong's ancestor only had three souls, and one of them had already been reincarnated.

Why do blood widows still look like Ouyang Yuetong?

According to our previous speculation, there must be blood widows in the tombs of Soul Gate.

How do they make every blood widow look like Ouyang Yuetong?

Alas, let's forget about that for now.

What we are thinking about now is how to enter Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum.

Since the Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses were discovered, the country has paid more attention to Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum, and now it is protected.

It's not that easy to sneak in.

If you dig a hole in the ground and sneak in, you won't be able to enter such a large cemetery in a day or two.

What would he do if it was Lao Bai?
