During the thousands of years' historical inheritance in China, countless powerful dynasties have emerged on the land of China, and many talented emperors have been born. When it comes to the emperor who impressed everyone the most and had the greatest influence on later generations, the first thing that people think of is Qin Shihuang. Qin Shihuang established the first unified dynasty in China, which started the feudal period of more than 2,000 years, and built the Great Wall of Wan Li, the Road of Qin, Lingqu and other projects for the benefit of future generations. But also advocates that books should be written in the same language, cars should run on the same track, and unified measurement will have a far-reaching impact on future generations.

Moreover, Qin Shihuang also left a miracle that shocked the ages, that is, his mausoleum: the mausoleum of Qin Shihuang. Emperors of past dynasties were very convinced that they would go to another world after death. In order to continue to enjoy these glories after death, they would take everything they had before their death to their graves. As an "emperor through the ages", Qin Shihuang naturally dared not be careless in this respect. He built a very luxurious mausoleum, including an army composed of terracotta warriors and horses and all kinds of gold, silver and jewels.

It is said that Qin Shihuang hollowed out a mountain when he built a mausoleum for many years. In the unexplored underground palace of Qin Shihuang, a magnificent underground world was created, including not only pavilions, but also mountains and rivers. And this "river" is not real water, but a river composed of a lot of mercury. When scientists explored the mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, they found that the mercury content in the soil was very high, which meant that there was a lot of mercury hidden in the mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. So, how much mercury is there in Qin Shihuang's mausoleum? Archaeologists have given the answer: just look at the pomegranate tree next to the tomb. What the hell does this mean?

First of all, the entire Qin Shihuang Mausoleum covers an area of 56.25 square kilometers, with a complete and orderly design and distinct regional levels. If we take the enclosure of Qin Shihuang Mausoleum as the center, it can be divided into four parts: inner city, outer city, outer city and core underground palace. Building such a huge project is definitely a challenging project for the ancients. In the Historical Records of Sima Qian, there are related records about the mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, and as far as the terracotta warriors and horses of the mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor have been excavated, they are exactly the same as those in the Historical Records.

Then, there should be some evidence that a large amount of mercury was poured into the mausoleum of Qin Shihuang depicted in historical records to symbolize rivers, lakes and seas. As far as the scale of the Qin Shihuang Mausoleum is concerned, even if there is only one river, the amount of mercury is very large. In addition, in addition to estimating the mercury content of the Qin Shihuang Mausoleum, experts have tested the soil quality, and the mercury metal content has also seriously exceeded the standard. However, in this soil, there are still many pomegranate trees around the mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, which makes people lament the tenacity of plant vitality.

But some experts have tested the fruits of these pomegranate trees and found that the mercury content in pomegranate is also very high. If you eat it carelessly, it will have unimaginable consequences. Therefore, experts are more sure that there is a lot of mercury in the mausoleum of Qin Shihuang. Although countless people are full of curiosity about the mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, the current technology does not have the strength to excavate Qin Shihuang. Therefore, at present, the mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor can only be temporarily sealed to protect it and prevent mercury from flowing out. Once such a large amount of mercury is leaked, it will have incalculable consequences.
