Guanzhong Tomb Robbery Notes

Chapter 110: The Secret Burial Sutra of the Han Dynasty's Yuanling Mausoleum, Open the Coffin

Old Li is right.

Given that Mount Li resembles a horse, it is not suitable for being the location of an emperor's mausoleum.

Not to mention that the person buried there was Qin Shihuang.

Later, I went to Mount Li several times to study the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang.

He also read a large number of ancient books to explore the secrets of Feng Shui.

I actually discovered some secrets.

The Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor is backed by the northern foot of Mount Li, and the place where it is backed is a concave shape, like the back of a chair for the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor to lean on.

There is a plain in the north, and the Wei River passes through it, forming a pattern of water coming into the front of the hall.

According to the currently popular Feng Shui viewpoint, the left and right sides of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor lack the Azure Dragon and White Tiger surrounding them, so it is not very suitable for storing wind and gathering energy.

But when I read ancient books, I found that when the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor was built, the stream that originally flowed from the northeast side of Mount Li was changed to flow from the northwest side of the mausoleum, passing around the northeast of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor.

This formed a pattern of three rivers surrounding the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor.

By artificially changing the flow direction of the Lishan stream, the missing Azure Dragon and White Tiger were filled with water.

However, the stream later dried up, leaving only the remains of the man-made embankment and river channel, which caused the original feng shui environment to change.

When future generations look at the feng shui of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum, they will feel puzzled.

I have to mention something here.

Throughout history, the geographical environment has changed tremendously.

Floods, river diversions, geological disasters, etc. may cause drastic changes to the original landform.

Once the topography changes, the feng shui will change dramatically.

Many Feng Shui masters only look at the Feng Shui in front of them and make inferences based on the Feng Shui in front of them.

But a good Feng Shui master can speculate the topography and landforms of thousands of years ago based on the changes in the terrain and landforms.

This is the difference between masters and mediocre people.

Then I saw a satellite photo.

Judging from satellite photos, the main Qinling mountain range behind Mount Li extends westward to the Tianshui section, resembling a long protruding dragon's mouth.

The main mountain range extends eastward to the Huashan section, which resembles a dragon's forehead.

The Huashan section extends eastward to the Lingbao Sanmenxia section, which is shaped like a dragon's horn.

The location of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum is right in the center of the pupil of a dragon's eye.

After seeing that satellite photo, all the hairs on my body stood up.

I had previously discovered the secret of being surrounded by three rivers through historical materials, and I felt that I had solved the feng shui mystery of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum.

But when I saw the satellite photos, I realized how wrong I was.

The Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang is really buried in the core of the dragon vein!

Moreover, this dragon vein is so huge that its shape cannot be seen by climbing high and looking far away.

I really don’t know how our ancestors were able to determine the core of this dragon vein so accurately.

I reflected deeply on this matter.

Only then did I realize the difference between large and small Feng Shui patterns.

Let’s talk about Lao Li again.

Old Li leaned close to my ear, reeking of alcohol, and whispered, "My grandfather has a secret Feng Shui book called 'The Secret Burial Manual of the Han Dynasty's Original Mausoleum'."

"Establishing a tomb, burying the dead, choosing a spot and cutting the grass, making the tomb high and deep, and even the funeral courtyard and streets, it can be said that nothing is left untouched."

"My grandfather said it was a printed version of the Yongle Encyclopedia, and there are only a few copies left in the world."

My mind started to move.

It is the Original Tomb of the Han Dynasty and the Secret Burial Sutra. Just by hearing the name, you know that this book is extraordinary.

It is estimated to be a book on burial feng shui from the Han Dynasty.

If we can really get it and take a look at it, it should be of great help in finding the Han tomb.

When my heart was moved, I changed my mind.

When Old Li said this, no matter how you think about it, it seems a bit like putting bait.

"Once you've learned the ropes from that book, finding a grave is as easy as glancing at it."

"It's a pity that I, big brother, am not talented enough to learn much."

"I see you're a well-read person with a good brain. If you're willing, I can lend you the book for a few days."

I'm coming.

Lao Li put down the bait.

I said, "Okay, Brother Li, you are such a good person."

"Once you learn it, I will definitely not keep it to myself. I will write down all the tricks and give them to you."

"Hahaha!"

Old Li hugged me and laughed.

"Brothers!"

"Brother, I'm not hiding anything from you, so shouldn't you be too?"

"Of course not." I nodded.

"Tell me where the stone sheep and stone horse were originally. Let's work together, brothers, and split the results in half."

Old Li used the "Secret Burial Manual of the Han Dynasty's Original Mausoleum" to paint a pie in the sky.

I just wanted to get the burial location out of people's mouths.

I smiled and said, "I have to read the book first. I'll tell you where it is after I read it."

"..."

Old Li was stunned for a moment.

Only then did I realize that I wasn't drunk enough to speak the truth.

"You...are you kidding me?!"

"How dare I, how dare I, but Brother Li, you're fishing with a straight hook, and you're not even willing to put down the bait, so how could I take the bait so easily?"

"We're all thousand-year-old foxes that have become spirits. Let's not play Liao Zhai with each other. Let's be frank and honest."

Old Li bit his back teeth hard.

He sneered and nodded, "I'm really an eighty-year-old mother who has collapsed."

"Don't think that without Zhang the Butcher we have to eat hairy pigs!"

"Whatever information you can find out, I can find out too. I'm only giving you the chance to tell it to save you the trouble."

As Old Li said, it looks strong but is actually weak.

I made up a story, "Bishop Li said he was the only one who knew where the Stone Sheep and Stone Horse had been."

"By the time you find out, the daylily will be cold."

Making up lies is gambling.

I bet Lao Li doesn’t dare to waste time.

Tomb robbing is also a matter of timeliness.

If someone gets there first, the people behind may not even get a sip of soup.

For example, in the late 1980s, I led people to Dabaozi Mountain in Li County, Gansu Province, and dug out bronze artifacts such as a bronze tripod with inscriptions of Qin Gong, which caused a sensation in the circle.

Countless colleagues rushed to Li County to look for the Qin Tomb.

Many local villagers also joined the team to go up the mountain to rob tombs and search for treasures.

At that time, at night, the Dabaozi Mountain would be covered with lanterns and torches. Soil diggers would drag carts back and forth, and there would be a spectacular sight of thousands of people digging holes in the mountain to look for graves.

But they never unearthed any decent bronze artifacts again.

Dozens of people even died from digging blindly.

Old Li sucked his teeth and fell silent.

He understands the importance of timeliness.

I dare not gamble at all.

"Brother Chen, I don't have the book with me."

"If you trust me, after we dig the grave, I'll come to my house and give you the book, how about that?"

I crossed my legs and sneered, "Not so good. I don't even know if I can walk out of your house."

"This doesn't work, and that doesn't work. What do you think will work?"

"Easy. Teach me one tomb-robbing technique I don't know, and I'll tell you."

I am not greedy.

Just learn one technique.

Old Li pondered for a moment, then stood up and said to me, "Hit!"

"Come with me, I'll teach you now."

We both left the house.

Old Li took me to the donkey cart and patted the coffin gently.

He bared his teeth and smiled sinisterly, "What I want to teach you is in this coffin."

"Brother Chen, do you have the courage to open this coffin?"

call!

A cool breeze blew by.

This made Lao Li's smile seem even more sinister.

I composed myself, smiled, and walked forward: "Why not?"

"For us tomb robbers, opening coffins is a common occurrence."

Old Li made a gesture of invitation: "Open the coffin."
