The woman in this mural really looks a bit like that woman, it can be seen that she was very important to the tomb owner when she was alive.

  The tomb chamber is filled with ceramics, and the super son carefully picked up a few pieces to examine their shape and workmanship. Preliminary inference suggests that this is a large Han Dynasty tomb. Judging from its scale, it should be at least a local official's tomb.

  As for the history of this village, Wen Bin didn't know much about it. It's said that his ancestors also migrated from elsewhere, just like our village. At that time, the indigenous people in western Zhejiang were almost all devastated by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement, which was a historical discontinuity.

  With an area of only about 4 or 5 ping, it can be seen at a glance that there is nothing special, such as a coffin. It's probably in the burial chamber, but whether it belongs to the tomb owner or not needs further investigation.

  On the left side of the tomb chamber, there is a brick gate made of large green bricks and rough stone ash, with its outline visible. Zha Wenbin pointed to it and said: "Open this, let's go take a look."

  Huang Roulian and Chaozi soon opened up a hole that could accommodate a person. The air inside was very stuffy, as most of these tombs were sealed structures, and people couldn't stay down there for long. Professional archaeologists all brought in blowers to work, pumping fresh air from the outside in.

  From here, it's a long corridor, and on the opposite side, there is another gate. According to Chaozi's judgment, this is also a burial chamber. Chaowenbin has no interest in archaeology, let alone being a tomb raider, so he prepares to focus his mind on finding the owner of the tomb.

  At the end of this corridor, there are two large wooden doors painted in red and black, with red lacquer painting stripes on them. Chao Tzu said that they were abstract dragons. This typical Han Dynasty lacquer art has been unable to be restored until now. If we talk about archaeological value, this large curtain is quite rich.

  "Brother Wenbin, I think the main tomb chamber is behind that door. Judging from the Han Dynasty's burial customs, this should be a brick-chambered tomb. Generally, they would first dig a vertical pit from the ground, then open a horizontal hole at the bottom of the pit, and use bricks to build the tomb chamber inside. Then, they would put the coffin in it and refill the soil. Some brick-chambered tombs have sloping passageways, and this one we're seeing now should be one of them. Look at the scale, it's at least a local official, otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to build a Han tomb of this level. When we get out, I'll report the situation here to the institute. This is definitely a major archaeological discovery. Anyway, you're a consultant hired by the institute, so even if we just do this, it's still okay."

  Because Han tombs are often buried deep underground, they are also very difficult to find, and any underground location in the countryside may be possible. The national strength of the Han Dynasty was extremely prosperous, and the tomb emphasized individual thick burial, and the burial objects of officials, nobles, kings, generals, and prime ministers were all piled up like mountains, so they have always been the most coveted target of treasure hunters.

  Some tomb raiders spend their whole lives hoping to dig up a Han dynasty tomb, because the stuff inside is from the Spring and Autumn or Warring States periods. They do dig them up, but the things inside are basically all bronze ritual vessels. Not only are they too heavy to move, but even if you managed to get a bronze ding out, you wouldn't dare take it home. Why? Because anything that's been in contact with bronze is basically a national treasure, and ordinary merchants don't dare accept them because the risk is too great - if you're caught in those days, it's basically a death sentence.

  So, they love the Han tomb, and it's easy to carry and sell. If Erhu knew that there was such a treasure in his own village, I don't know how big his eyes would be. With just two items from this house, he could exchange for a Santana without any problem.

  At that time, the tomb also had a point, which was a strong anti-theft awareness. Since there were many things inside, it was necessary to prevent tomb theft. It was precisely because of the thick burial wind that in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao established the Mocheng School Lieutenant and the Faqiu Zhonglang General, specializing in grave robbery to gain military funds.

  At least for now, they are still safe. Chaozi tried to push the big gate, but it didn't budge. He called up Heng Roulian and Zhuo Xiong, and the three men together had a pushing force of at least several hundred kilograms. The big gate only slightly retreated backwards, and as soon as they caught their breath, it immediately closed again.

  He rolled up his sleeves and was about to try again, but was stopped by Chaozi: "Don't waste your energy, this thing is probably filled with self-sealing stones. Unless you blow the door open, there's no way you're getting in."

  The mechanism of the self-moving stone is as follows: First, the upper and lower ends of the door shaft of the tomb gate that matches it are made into a ball shape. Two tomb gates in the middle of the seam each excavate a protrusion. On the ground inside the tomb gate and opposite the center line of the tomb gate, a shallow groove is excavated near the gate and deep at the other end. The width of the stone groove is the same as that of the self-moving stone. Before closing the tomb gate, place the self-moving stone in the stone groove and make one end contact with the tomb gate. When the craftsmen retreat to the outside of the tomb gate and close the tomb gate, the self-moving stone relies on its own weight and the force of the two ends of the door shaft ball to slowly fall down, slowly lowering until the top is aligned with the slot left at the top of the tomb gate, and finally the tomb gate is tightly closed. The huge self-moving stone is miraculously automatically topped inside the tomb gate.

  Cha Wenbin also knew a bit about anti-theft techniques, and he was aware of this mechanism. It couldn't be opened without human effort. Moreover, this was an ancient tomb after all, and forcibly breaking in would be difficult to explain later on. He shifted his gaze towards another chamber: the one that hadn't been opened yet. Cha Wenbin speculated that it might be a burial chamber for accompaniment.

  "Let's open that one first, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid there won't be enough air inside. If it really doesn't work out, we'll notify the department tomorrow, it's a bit slow, but we can still figure things out." Cha Wenbin said, stroking his chin.

  Chaozi touched the brick door, measuring the distance, and inserted a sentence to ask: "By the way, Wenbin brother, how did you think of coming here to dig graves? It seems that you are not interested in these underground things. Otherwise, with your ability to read Feng Shui, you would have become a rich tomb raider by now."

  He turned around to look at the portrait of the girl and said, "The two people buried here have been dead for at least a thousand years, yet they haven't reincarnated. According to what that girl said, the tomb owner can't even leave this graveyard. Unfortunately, I buried my daughter here too. Before, I always had dreams about her being trapped in the depths of hell. Last night when I came here to summon her spirit, I found out she was tightly bound by some kind of power. If what that girl said is true, I want to see if there's any connection between them."

  After he finished speaking, the woman in the painting suddenly floated out of the wall and stood before them, saying: "Thank you, brother, for remembering me all along. If you can help my master to be reincarnated soon, I am willing to be reborn as a cow or a horse to repay you."

  "Wen Bin's sister is her! What we see is really her!" Chaozi said, pointing at the weak woman whose feet were not touching the ground.

  Cha Wenbin turned to Chaozi and said, "Since you've also appeared, can't you tell us what you know?"

  "My family's master was a governor of this place before, with great literary and military talents, deeply loved by the local people. There is an old lady in our house, whose greatest wish for her whole life is to see what the imperial palace looks like, but she is too old to bear the hardship of traveling by carriage or boat. So the master thought of a way out, building a miniature version of the imperial palace in this remote place. When the old lady was sixty years old, the master brought her here and told her that this is what the imperial palace looks like, fulfilling his mother's wish."

  The woman said, and then began to feel sad. "Later, this was reported to the emperor by his arch-nemesis in the court, accusing him of treason for privately building a palace. The emperor, in a fit of rage, sent someone to behead my master. However, after investigating, it was discovered that he had done it to fulfill the old lady's wish, and so the emperor proclaimed him a filial son to the world. But by then, my master had already lost his head, and the emperor bestowed a golden head upon him. I also followed him into the ground."

  "Golden head? That day's son is really generous." Chaozi said with a strange smile, no longer afraid of her.

  Zhuo Xiong said disapprovingly, "What's so generous? It's just a trick of those in power. In ancient times, filial piety came first, and the Son of Heaven was just making a big show of things that were already done by local officials."

  "What Brother Zhuo said is not wrong." Cha Wenbin said, "However, now that you've mentioned it, I know why he can't reincarnate - his corpse and head are separated, his soul is scattered. What about you? Are you planning to hide here for the rest of your life?"

  The woman choked and said: "As long as the master can reincarnate, I'll follow him, but that certain door god said you can't open it, not even I can pass through. It seems like there's something very fierce inside. I often hear the master's wailing from inside. Only when I bring some offerings to worship from outside can it get a little better, so..."
