Usually, a large number of gold, silver and jewels are buried in the tombs of prominent and noble emperors to show their rich and noble status. Influenced by Confucian culture, they think that people need gold and silver after death, just in another world. Because there are a lot of gold and silver treasures hidden here, these noble tombs have become a good place for grave robbers to get rich, and more and more people have started this profession.
Although he didn't want peace after death, the emperor told his advisers to pay more attention to the construction of the mausoleum to prevent it from being dug up in the future. One way is that, like Cao Cao's tomb, there are different realities. He really deserves the title of hero. Instead of building tombs for themselves, there are 72. The real hiding place is in these graves. The real hiding place is empty, and the grave robbers can't figure out his hiding place. It is not easy to enter the grave. It is necessary to explore the terrain. After all, it is built underground, and some cornerstones are unstable, which is also common.
Another method is to establish a mechanism. We often see grave robberies in tombs. In fact, it is actually a step by step to crack the organ art created by the tomb owner before his death. Generally, it is contextual, just like playing a game, upgrading step by step. After the customs clearance, you can reach the tomb center smoothly. Often, most of the tombs in the middle are precious treasures, so many grave robbers will spend a lot of money to invite experts engaged in organ art to enter the tombs and share the treasures.
Generally, poison is often associated with organs, especially in graves, where the owner likes to use mercury to make people who come to rob the tomb retreat. Because it is underground all the year round, there is no sunshine, and the air flow in the tomb is not so smooth. Once a hole is opened, the air circulating outside and the space in the tomb can be circulated, so the mercury will become steam and float in the air. The deeper the pedestrians go, the more poisonous gas they inhale, and eventually they will die in the tomb and cannot survive.
Grave robbers often look for gold and silver treasures in graves. If there is nothing in it, the grave robbers will not waste their energy to dig the grave. This kind of funeral is contrary to the thick burial advocated by the ancients. It is regarded as a thin burial, a simple funerary object, without gold, silver and silk, but only a few plain clothes and boots that are often worn, showing poverty and integrity in front of the tomb owner.
General Zhang Zhan is like this. He put the stone tablet in front of his grave, instead of hiding it in the grave as his predecessors liked, and wrote that his burial was simple and poor, with no gold or silver. He hopes that future generations will not disturb his peace for a hundred years. Probably the grave robbers saw the old man's sincere words or believed his story. So far, Zhang Zhan's grave has never been stolen.
It can be seen that gorgeous tombs are more likely to be stolen. After all, if people are not desperate, no one will be willing to disturb their sleeping ancestors. The complexity of the tomb, in the final analysis, is to leave a quiet place for yourself.
