Chapter 441

~8 min read 1,442 words

If artifacts and the like could be dug out from the family cemetery, many problems could be explained.

"The tomb is a brick-chambered wooden coffin tomb. Fang Yang just dug into this piece of land. Fortunately, Fang Yang stopped in time just now; otherwise, I'm afraid it would be a very big loss."

Someone couldn't help but say.

At the same time, when looking at Fang Yang, his gaze was full of admiration.

Just that one shovel down, and it wasn't even dug solid, but Fang Yang stopped; clearly, he knew what was underneath.

Of course, what he said later also verified that he indeed knew there were good things underneath.

So, why is it that some excavator drivers can only dig dirt for a lifetime, while Fang Yang, who drives an excavator like this, digs up all treasures?

Maybe details determine success or failure.

Of course.

They sighed at Fang Yang, but the subsequent matters still needed to be handled.

They had to figure out whose cemetery this family cemetery was.

And which dynasty's cemetery it was.

Through the tombstone and the artifacts inside, they soon determined the identity of the tomb owner.

"Zhang Anwan, the name of this tomb owner is Zhang Anwan!"

When this sentence was spoken, everyone's gaze couldn't help but fall on Fang Yang, shocked.

【Popularity】 +1+1+1+1.

——【Fang Yang is really very formidable; I'm tired of saying this sentence! Although I'm tired of saying it, I still have to say it!】

——【Originally thought it was just a story Fang Yang told casually, but didn't expect to really dig up this tomb.】

——【Then the story Fang Yang told before, could it be that it also happened in reality?】

——【It shouldn't be; it should be that Fang Yang might have known about Zhang Anwan from some ancient book, so he said it. Or it was studied by some artifact experts or historians, so they told Fang Yang.】

——【One wife and three concubines, actually said so accurately; I am more willing to believe that Fang Yang's story is true.】

——【Fang Yang has many secrets, but the fact that he can dig up treasures anytime and anywhere is very unusual. Instead of considering the suspicious points on Fang Yang, we might as well think seriously about what is going on with Zhang Anwan's tomb in front of us.】

——【It's really very strange; why was Zhang Anwan's tomb buried with his concubines? This doesn't follow the rules.】

——【Could it be burial?】

Some problems were finally solved, but new problems popped up again.

Fang Yang found that he was simply like an encyclopedia of ten thousand whys.

Everyone didn't seem to be very interested in the buried artifacts; after all, they had seen unusual artifacts before, and the artifacts in Zhang Anwan's tomb seemed a bit ordinary.

So, everyone's attention simply focused on Zhang Anwan himself.

"Everyone is curious why Zhang Anwan was buried with his concubines, and feel it doesn't follow the rules?"

"Some people also feel that this might be burial."

"Actually, in slave society, especially in the Xia, Shang, and Zhou periods, burial was relatively common."

"In the Qin and Han periods, burial gradually faded out of the historical stage, and burial objects were mainly wooden figurines and pottery figurines."

"By the Liao Dynasty, the custom of human burial was rekindled."

"After the Ming Dynasty was established, Zhu Yuanzhang restored the system of living burial. Even the concubines buried with him after his death were 46 people, and this system was maintained for decades. It was abolished on the surface during the Yingzong period."

"It is clear that royal relatives had the custom of burial, so does it also exist among the people?"

"From these artifacts, we can see that Zhang Anwan should have lived in the Xiaozong period after Yingzong, and at that time, the phenomenon of living burial should have existed to varying degrees among the people."

"Zhang Anwan was a Jinshi, and he had no fame in history, but from his burial objects and other situations, it can be seen that his living conditions at that time should have been good, and his family background was okay."

"From the bone age of Zhang Anwan, he should have been an old man when he died, and the bone age of his youngest concubine is estimated to be only about 18 years old."

To let everyone understand what he said more clearly, Fang Yang explained while taking them to see the things in the tomb.

He was careful and would absolutely not cause any damage to it.

"Do you still remember the Golden Branches and Jade Leaves mentioned before?"

Fang Yang suddenly pointed to one of the places.

That was the tomb of one of the concubines.

Following what Fang Yang said, the others' gazes couldn't help but fall on the place Fang Yang pointed to.

"The traces of the golden cicada are still left here; clearly, this one is the concubine most favored by the Golden Cicada."

【Popularity】 +1+1+1+1.

——【If the direction Fang Yang pointed to is not wrong, that is the youngest one, the concubine about 18 years old.】

——【Yes, that is the tomb of that concubine.】

——【He was already 70 or 80 years old, and he actually married someone who could be his granddaughter as a concubine. Sure enough, whether in ancient times or modern times, men just like young ones.】

——【These are just our speculations, right? Maybe there will be other meanings.】

——【Maybe he just wants young women to dress up more, beautiful, beautiful?】

——【In ancient times, weren't there many old husbands and young wives? I think it's understandable.】

——【In ancient times, women's status was very low. In the Ming Dynasty, whether a woman's status was noble or ordinary, they were all like commodities, traded at will. Thinking of the women today, they are really much happier.】

——【Living burial is really very disgusting! Modern society is really very, very good; I love my country.】

272. Are you talking about aliens? The most exquisite bronze ware of the Warring States period!

The gaze of everyone at the scene fell on Fang Yang.

They can always understand many things through Fang Yang.

Learn many things.

Sometimes, they feel that the stories Fang Yang tells, even if they are true, are things that have already passed, and have nothing to do with them.

But in fact, some truths are common to ancient and modern times.

After discussing, they can often understand quite a few truths from it.

"Brother Fang Yang, how on earth did you judge that there would be Zhang Anwan's tomb within 500-1000 meters?"

The longer Bai Chang stayed with Fang Yang, the more he admired Fang Yang.

Fang Yang seems to say it casually, but this casual remark doesn't look simple at all.

So it must be that Fang Yang already knew that Zhang Anwan's tomb was nearby, so he had such a deduction.

"Golden Branches and Jade Leaves is an item Zhang Anwan gave to his concubine. Wouldn't it be obvious that there would be other discoveries nearby?"

Fang Yang smiled, and his tone was very natural: "Even if it were someone else, they would have such a deduction, right."

No.

Ordinary people definitely wouldn't have such a deduction.

Bai Chang thought very firmly in his heart.

Not only Bai Chang, but even the others thought so.

"Actually, it's not considered a deduction, because before, I had already asked whether there were any Ming and Qing tombs excavated in this vicinity."

Fang Yang said very seriously.

"You did say that, but what is the intention behind this?"

Bai Chang didn't understand the principle behind this at all.

Fang Yang sighed gently.

"Ming and Qing tombs are mostly gathered in the same place."

"If it can be confirmed that many Ming and Qing tombs were excavated in this vicinity, then it proves that there is likely a tomb group in this vicinity."

"All deductions are actually not aimless, but have a basis."

"Plus a little bit of luck."

Fang Yang smiled when he said this.

"Ming and Qing tombs are very particular about Feng Shui, and at the same time, many customs and habits are integrated into them."

"Of course, besides this, there are other characteristics. Ming and Qing tombs are mostly gray-sand tombs, and generally there will be tombstones, so they are very easy to distinguish."

"Observe the surroundings; actually, many things can be deduced."

"From Feng Shui, terrain, and some excavation situations in the past, these are very favorable evidence."

Fang Yang explained the situation to others here, while the Culture Bureau director looked at the excavation situation of Zhang Anwan very happily.
