This time the difficulty is high, even Wang Deshun himself took a steel rod to help. ?? Bayi Zhongwen? =≤≈

Finally overturned another cover, Zhang Nan took a look: it was about the same as the one on the other side, there was not much soil-if the seal was not good, let alone the Song Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty tombs would be left behind by the muddy water that leaked in. The soil underneath fills up.

If so, you really have to dig slowly.

"No coffin."

Zhang Nan heard that her brother-in-law was talking, and said, "It's rotted early. Ours is acidic soil. It is estimated that there will be no bones left behind."

I checked it and found that my estimation was wrong: the two kang tombs only used 9 stone slabs, the front and the back two were connected, and the two kang tombs shared three slabs.

"Xiao Zhang, there are carved patterns on the south side, is it useful?"

Wang Deshun asked from the side. In fact, Zhang Nan had already seen it: Although the soil in the tomb is not particularly thick, it is estimated to be 20 or 30 centimeters away—no burial objects can be seen.

On the inner side of the shared stone slab on the south side, two huge stone lotus flowers are carved, which will make people feel weird even under the big sun.

"This is called stepping on the lotus flower, a kind of beautiful meaning of the ancients. This is still carved in the sun, Debiao, or you can find a place to keep it for yourself, maybe it will be worth some money in 20 years."

Wang Deshun disagreed, "Who wants this stuff, it's bad luck! In the village, there are almost the same number of Taipingtang as the edge of the pond."

Taipingtang is basically found in villages in the south of the Yangtze River. It is usually in the middle of the village. There are several in many large villages: it can be washed, and water can be fetched for fire fighting at critical moments, so it is called Taiping.

The stone slabs laid along the pond are convenient for washing and washing vegetables. This stone slab was not cheap dozens or hundreds of years ago, so basically you can use it for whatever you want. Tombstones and tomb slabs are very common.

Wang Deshun didn't want it, and Zhang Nan didn't say much: After 20 years, such a well-crafted carved "Lotus on the Foot", as long as you don't tell people that it is a tomb board, it is not a big problem to sell it for five or eight thousand.

No one wants the shameless ones.

Some people decorate their villas and make their own houses, and want to decorate some old stone carvings. If they don't have any price for their eyesight, they will move their "yin house" home inadvertently.

The most interesting thing is that someone wants to get the old stone lion town house for the house, but buys back the stone lion for the tomb!

The stone lions used in the Yang House are generally upright: that is, the head of the lion faces forward and does not turn. Even if a few old stone carvings are crooked, the direction of the sitting lion must be facing one of the sides of the connected square base.

As for the pair of stone lions placed in front of the tomb, the heads are not only crooked, but the sitting lions face the diagonal of the four corners of the base!

Don't make a mistake.

Because the foundation was to be built, the construction site adopted the "moving mountain method" for this slab tomb: dig it around and above it cleanly.

The whole is exposed, and the subsequent cleaning is much more convenient.

"Pry the'foot lotus flower', and then slowly clean it from south to north, and see if it will be a little surprised."

"no problem."

Wang Deshun immediately directed the workers to work. When the stone slab was lifted off, the soil was only 20 centimeters thick.

The tomb was two meters and five meters in length, and the two workers carefully followed Wang Deshun's teachings: first use chopsticks to "explore the road", and then use a **** to dig the soil.

"The area near the south usually contains bowls and bottles. Be careful not to dig them out."

Although it is unlikely that good things will come out of the stone tombs of the Song Dynasty, since it is done, you have to be careful.

Sure enough, a worker quickly dug out a long bottle.

"Manager, there is something good!"

When Wang Deshun heard the spirit, it was a bottle with blue-yellow glaze, lying horizontally in the soil, with a dragon still entwined on it.

Here we carefully pick up the soil with wooden slats so as not to damage it, and on the other side, an identical one is dug out in the tomb pit.

"Xiao Zhang, a pair of vases, good things!"

Seeing Wang Deshun's modification of Cailie's appearance, Zhang Nan was really reluctant to discourage his enthusiasm, but he still had to say.

"Deshun, come here."

Zhang Nan called to herself and said, "Don't take those two bottles to your home. You can just give them a reprieve and give them to the Cultural Affairs Commission."

Now Wang Deshun is strange, "Don't you want such a beautiful bottle?"

Zhang Nan smiled mysteriously and said: "That's not a vase. No matter how beautiful you are, you can't forget to move home, unless you think you are too pretentious!"

When Zhang Nan spoke, it didn't look like a joke. Wang Deshun and the people nearby also pricked their ears.

"Stop your appetite, what's the point?"

Upon hearing the words of her brother-in-law, Zhang Nan also had to answer honestly: "That is called a'soul bottle'. It is not a funerary object at all, but a ghost!"

"burial objects?"

"According to our view, the simplest understanding is to help call for souls. Some say it is a small house where the souls of the dead live. The last version is to help the souls ascend to heaven.

Three functions, just choose one at random, move to home? "

When Zhang Nan said something, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at the two beautiful bottles!

But Zhang Nan's words are not over yet, "Also, Deshun, you will say with the people at the construction site: This kind of weird bottle dug out from the tomb is fortunate to say, temporarily losing it on the construction site is not a big problem.

If you don’t know how to dig out a fancy porcelain or earthenware bottle from the soil alone, it doesn’t have anything, so don’t worry about it. Take it outside the construction site and dig a pit and bury it immediately, and burn some incense paper candles on the bottle by the way Yes, so as not to trouble the construction site. "

"What's the point?"

Everyone became curious, and Zhang Nan said: "In ancient times, transportation and communications were not available. Relatives served as soldiers and went out for business. Many of them couldn't come back when they left, and they died in foreign countries. Very few corpses could be transported back to their hometowns. I don't know whether it is alive or dead.

The family can’t do anything, so they get a soul bottle and let people call back the soul of their loved ones~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The bottle is for the soul to live in. To put it bluntly, it is a coffin with a dead person. "

Speaking of this, Zhang Nan looked at everyone with an expression of "You drop, understand?"-this is a fool if you don't understand it!

Even a guy who has a problem with his brain would probably not move a "dead man's coffin with a dead man" to his home, right?

Of course, there are also special collections of soul bottles. For those nerve-class collectors, Zhang Nan can only say: "I served you!"

To be honest, the general craftsmanship of the soul bottle is quite high, but even after more than 20 years, few people buy it, and it is unlucky to see it!

...

The soul bottle appeared in the Han Dynasty, and a large number of soul bottles have been unearthed. There are particularly many tombs in the Song Dynasty: its unearth has a guiding and supporting role in the dating of tombs without epitaphs: the soul bottle of the Three Kingdoms in the Han Dynasty is larger and tall The difference in width ratio is small, and the glaze loses transparency and mostly has a flat bottom; until the Song Dynasty, the soul bottle was like a bottle, and the feet were revolved. Most of the utensils have a strong glazed glass texture....

For archaeological play, private collectors shun it. (To be continued.)
