Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 67
Not only Cao Tian didn't understand, but other people also didn't understand, and they all looked at Wu Liang suspiciously.

"Brother An Min, be safe and don't be impatient."

Wu Liang just smiled lightly, and while continuing to do things, he said to the soldiers, "I will only do it once, pay attention to it, and you will do this kind of thing in a while."

This time Wu Liang passed a rope through the small hole reserved on the head of the Luoyang shovel, tied several strong knots, and then inserted the Luoyang shovel vertically along the small hole dug out earlier.

Then a stone was moved from the side, and it was hit hard on the handle of the shovel a few times, causing it to sink about 30 centimeters again.

Then he pulled the rope and lifted it up, and then lifted the U-shaped shovel head out of the soil and rotated it 90 degrees, smashed it again and lifted it again, smashed it again and lifted it again. Bring another tube of soil.

In such a short time, the small hole has penetrated nearly 60 centimeters.

"Did you see clearly?"

Wu Liang looked back at the soldiers.

"See clearly."

The soldiers nodded blankly.

"Then come and work."

Wu Liang clapped his hands and resolutely handed the Luoyang shovel into their hands.

This operation is not too cumbersome at all. Several soldiers learned the same thing by following the gourd to draw a ladle. After a short while, they have fully mastered the skills of using Luoyang shovel, and the efficiency of cooperation with each other is naturally much faster.

After a few downs, the wooden handle attached to the back of the Luoyang shovel was no longer long enough.

However, Wu Liang had already prepared more wooden handles, and taught them how to connect the wooden handles, and continued to dig down.

However, seeing the soldiers doing so happily, Cao Ting became more and more puzzled, and finally couldn't help asking: "My dear brother, what is the purpose of this move?"

"Brother An Min, do you think how deep they have dug now?"

Wu Liang asked with a smile.

Cao Ting glanced at the wooden handle on the back of the Luoyang shovel, and said, "It's more than ten feet."

"How long does it usually take to dig a ten-foot-deep hole?"

Wu Liang asked again.

"If ten people do it together, it will take about half a day."

Cao Ting said in a deep voice.

"Then what about my pit?"

Wu Liang asked again.

"It's been almost a moment..."

Cao Ting already understood what Wu Liang wanted to express, but he still had other doubts in his heart, and continued, "But this pit is narrow and small, not only can we not enter, but we can't see the bottom of the cave. What's the use?"

"Brother Anmin is too worried. Others may not be able to see it, but brother can."

Wu Liang said with a smile.

People in later generations should all know that Luoyang shoveling holes are not for people to lie on top of the holes to check. The key to really judging whether there are ancient tombs underground is actually the soil brought up from the tubes.

How to distinguish the soil quality, so as to judge whether there are ancient tombs underground is also a compulsory knowledge for archaeologists.

First of all, soil is mainly divided into two categories: dead soil and living soil.

Dead soil is an ancient surface layer without human activities before, such as sedimentary soil, alluvial soil, clay, sandy soil layer, the thickness of the soil layer is different, and the color is different.

Living soil refers to the soil that has undergone human activities and contains relics. Human activities form plowed soil, rammed soil, road soil, burnt soil, gray soil, flower soil, silt soil, and fluttering soil.

To find the tomb, the main thing to explore is the rammed earth layer and the big flower soil, as well as the unique soil layers of ancient tombs such as "green paste mud" and "white paste mud" used to fill the tomb walls.

In addition, the rammed earth layer and Dahua soil of ancient tombs in different periods are also different.

Ancient tombs in the Spring and Autumn Period and the early Warring States Period are often backfilled with red reticulate soil, and then rammed layer by layer. In general, the color of the rammed earth layer in the Spring and Autumn Period Tombs is slightly lighter, while that of the Warring States Tombs is slightly darker.

The ancient tombs in the late Warring States Period began to be backfilled with a mixture of red reticulate soil and loess, and compacted in layers.

Tombs in the early and mid-Western Han Dynasty were often backfilled with pure loess. This kind of loess has good viscosity. The soil master who was in the yellow mud business before was looking for this kind of mud to dig, and he could dig out ancient tombs with just one dig.

In the tombs of the late Western Han Dynasty, a kind of yellow sand and mud was transported from other places to fill the tombs.

The filling conditions of the tombs of the Eastern Han Dynasty are similar to those of the tombs of the Western Han Dynasty, but yellow sand and mud are no longer used as filling soil, but the rammed earth is not as compact and loose as the tombs of the Western Han Dynasty, commonly known as "paozhuban".

As for the later tombs, Wu Liang definitely has no chance to steal them now, so let's not mention them.

In short, the knowledge of viewing soil and tombs is shallow, and there are various details in depth. If there is no systematic study and long-term experience accumulation, it is really not something that ordinary people can master.

Because of this, Wu Liang didn't mind at all that Luoyang Shovel was learned by someone, it was just superficial, and the real core technology was in his heart.

"Could it be that my brother's eyes have other secrets?"

Upon hearing this, Cao Ting immediately revealed a look of surprise, and leaned forward to look carefully at Wu Liang's eyes.

"This is a secret not handed down by the ancestors. It is called the technique of 'dividing the gold and fixing the acupoints'. If there are more words, I will forgive my brother for not being able to speak."

Wu Liang pulled Cao Ting's hand away, and resolutely turned on the mystery mode again.

In the novels of later generations, there are still many powerful words that he can use to make a difference. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are inexhaustible.

Of course, the purpose of Wu Liang's nonsense is also to better protect himself.

Don't pass on all your abilities at any time. This is the truth he learned from a fable about a cat and a tiger. Taught it to the tiger, and survived when the tiger crossed the river and demolished the bridge.

However, at the same time as he said these words, a quite philosophical question suddenly popped up in Wu Liang's mind:

If things go on like this, will there be Captain Mojin who is good at dividing gold and Ding acupoints first in history, or Wu Youcai who pretends to be a ghost?
……

For a while.

Several soldiers have already dug the pit to a depth of 5 meters.

Wu Liang glanced "inadvertently" at the excavated soil, and found that it was still dead soil after digging so deep, so he "pretended" to look in front of the hole dug out by the shovel in Luoyang. Only then said in a firm tone, "Let's go, there is no need to dig here, there is no grave below."

Such ancient tombs guarded by tomb guards are generally not small in scale.

Therefore, as long as a hole is drilled and no suspicious soil is found, the location can be changed immediately, and there is no need for the "plum blossom point" tomb inspection method to conduct small-scale inspections for the time being.

"It can be confirmed so soon? Brother, is the technique of 'dividing gold and fixing acupoints' so miraculous?"

Cao Ting said pleasantly, this is indeed much faster than the previous efficiency, and it only takes a quarter of an hour before and after, and it also saves the process of filling holes to hide people's eyes and ears when he was in Dangshan.

If this "dividing the gold points" is really useful, they will get twice the result with half the effort in future tomb robbery!
Bai Jingjing's eyes showed an imperceptible look of worry...

at the same time.

And in a high forest outside the Valley of No Return, a man hidden in the canopy watched for a while, and finally said to the people below: "Jingjing is not dead! It turned out that she was captured by another group of people." , no wonder there was no trace of her for the past few days, but at this time she was wearing her clothes inside out, which is telling us that this group of people is not easy, and telling us not to act rashly."

　It is confirmed that Sanjiang will be next week, and the lucky bag in the investment bets that interested bosses can make a wave and make a steady profit.
