Chapter 189 The Secret of the Underground Palace
“But when you see the terracotta warriors and horses, they actually look like they have been excavated.
In fact, the terracotta warriors and horses buried with them are kilometers away from Qin Shihuang’s mausoleum.
Obviously this has exceeded everyone's imagination.
Because Lishan Mountain, which everyone agrees is the tomb of Qin Shihuang, is too far away from the Terracotta Warriors and Horses.
If the terracotta warriors and horses are part of the tomb of Qin Shihuang.
So how big is the tomb of Qin Shihuang? According to the scope that has been explored now.
The tomb of Qin Shi Huang is a full km long. What is this concept? "
km, which is already as large as the 78 Forbidden City.
Everyone can't imagine how grand this Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum is.
But as long as you see the terracotta warriors and horses, you can only see a small part of them buried with them.
The exquisiteness and prosperity of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses are already amazing.
Therefore, what kind of rare treasures are contained in the tomb of Qin Shihuang has always been talked about by everyone.
“So what’s in Qin Shihuang’s tomb?
There has always been a saying about Qin Shihuang's mausoleum, which is also recorded in history books.
The tomb of Qin Shihuang contains countless amounts of mercury.
Pass through three springs, lower the copper into the coffin, and watch the palace full of hundreds of officials, rare utensils, and treasures.
He ordered the craftsman to make a crossbow arrow and shoot at anyone who came close.
Use mercury to form hundreds of rivers and seas, imbuing it with structures, astronomy at the top and geography at the bottom.
Use mermaid ointment as a candle to save those who are immortal for a long time.
This is what the ancients recorded about the tomb of Qin Shihuang.
To put it simply, the tomb of Qin Shihuang was dug very deep and had passed through three springs.
When archaeologists were digging holes and surveying near Lishan Mountain.
I did find such a situation, if I go down to dig a hole near Lishan Mountain.
It is indeed necessary to pass through three layers of groundwater, which is three rounds.
Then it was recorded that many rare treasures were buried in the underground palace.
Qin Shihuang asked the craftsmen to set up many mechanisms to prevent tomb robbers from robbing the tomb.
Just like Mrs. Xin Zhui’s fire cave, it was all designed to prevent tomb robbers.
Then the next step is the key point. Qin Shihuang used mercury as a river.
Do you want to know how big the tomb of Qin Shihuang is?I want to fill this underground palace.
It is simply impossible.
So this has always been regarded as just a legend.
But in modern times, when we use modern instruments to detect.
It was found that the mercury content here in Lishan is thousands of times higher than the surrounding area.
So this is a stone hammer, this historical record is true.
There is indeed a large amount of mercury in the tomb of Qin Shihuang.
And according to the detected image, the density distribution of mercury.
It is consistent with the map after Qin unified the six countries at that time.
So this ancient legend was revealed. This underground palace is indeed full of mercury. "
Mercury is a very magical thing. In ancient times, it has been used as a material for alchemy.
Mercury is extracted from cinnabar.
Coincidentally, the same is true for foreign alchemy, which also uses mercury as an alchemical material.
Both East and West have the same idea.
Old Wu looked at Ye Zhen and explained, "In 2002, this was called Project 863."
"The purpose is to explore whether there is really a huge amount of mercury in this underground palace."
"Finally, I found out that the history books were indeed right."
"Actually, this also shows that the tomb of Qin Shihuang was not robbed."
In fact, modern science can already turn stone into gold.
And the most suitable raw material for turning stone into gold is mercury.
So how does modern scientific method do it? We all know that different substances are essentially different in the number of protons.
Just like mercury has 80 protons, gold has 79 protons, and oxygen has 8 protons.
Theoretically, as long as one proton is removed from mercury, all mercury can be turned into gold.
This is modern alchemy, something that can really be done.
So if you want to turn stone into gold, mercury is really the most suitable material.
After all, the difference in proton numbers between mercury and gold is only 1.
If other metal elements are used, not one proton needs to be taken out.
At the time, scientists were also very curious as to whether this was a coincidence or something.
Why did the ancients know that mercury can be turned into gold.
However, the money required to turn 1 gram of mercury into 1 gram of gold has exceeded the value of 1 gram of gold itself.
It can be said that the gains outweigh the losses.
How did the ancients know that mercury could be turned into gold? Ye Zhen then said: "The mercury and the Milky Way sea in this underground palace are still flowing all the time.
It has been moving for more than 2000 years, it is like a perpetual motion machine.
And the archaeologists back then really discovered it from the detection data.
In the underground palace, there is indeed an object moving in the mercury.
This is most likely the coffin of Qin Shihuang.
Therefore, some people in history said that after the death of Qin Shihuang, he followed the Milky Way in the underground palace to patrol his empire.
This is not groundless talk.
Finally, there is the lighting in Qin Shihuang’s mausoleum, which uses mermaid fish oil to make everlasting lamps.
It can never go out.
This goes against the common sense of physics. How can there be an eternal light? Even if there is indeed mermaid fish oil, it probably won't be possible, after all, there isn't that much oxygen in it to support speaking of this lighting, another strange thing is the terracotta warriors and horses.
These terracotta warriors and horses are actually buried in deep pits.
It's not like what we can see in the open air now, but it's in a deep pit.
At that time, lighting tools required torches.
It was pitch dark inside, and it was not an easy task to place these carefully crafted terracotta warriors and horses.
How did the ancients at that time place these terracotta warriors and horses in the dark pits?
You know, there was no sign of torches being used during the excavation.
Because the burning of torches will inevitably leave traces of burning.
But there were no traces of being smoked by torches in the pits or on the terracotta warriors and horses. "
When Ye Zhen said this, everyone was also curious, how did the ancients do it? Because the terracotta warriors and horses pit is buried in the ground, after digging a hole in advance.
Then I put the terracotta warriors and horses inside one by one.
Without lighting, it simply wouldn't be possible.
In fact, this is also something that some archaeologists are confused about.
How on earth could these terracotta warriors and horses be placed one by one in this dark environment?
The only lighting at that time was torches.
It's not like modern times where you can have electric lights.
But someone remembered what Ye Zhen said in the first episode.
"It's Burning Stone! Didn't Qin Shihuang meet the god of Wanqu Kingdom back then?"
"I remember, so it was done with burning stone?"
At night, burn stones to keep up the stone comes from the Burning Mountain. The earth and rocks are all clear from the light. When pressed, they break into pieces. They look like millet, and each grain reflects the whole hall.
This is what Ye Zhen said at that time.
Ye Zhen said with a smile: "Obviously some old viewers have thought of it.
That's right, when Qin Shihuang met the people of Nawanqu.
There is mention of something called a burning stone, which can provide light.
Therefore, both the underground palace and the terracotta warriors and horses may have used burning stones for lighting. "
This explains it.
But what exactly is this burning stone? Some archaeologists immediately searched for Ye Zhen's previous programs.
"Is there such a record?"
"So this ever-burning lamp may be the so-called burning stone."
"I just said that if it were an oil lamp, how could it last forever?"
"But according to the knowledge of the ancients, a lamp made of mermaid fish oil is already a magical thing."
Does this mean that Qin Shihuang really met the Wanqu people back then? Otherwise, the records in the excavated terracotta warriors and horses and the underground palace cannot be explained at all.
Some people even say that the tomb of Qin Shihuang may contain the lost Jiuding of Dayu.
Jiuding has always symbolized the power of China.
However, it has been lost in the long history, and Jiuding has disappeared.
Everyone thinks that it is possible that Qin Shihuang buried the Jiuding in the underground palace.
So what exactly is the legendary Jiuding? Is it in the underground palace?
Only by opening the underground palace can we find out.
Since the Jiuding was lost, the handed down jade seal made by the He family became the emperor's source of legitimacy.
Because Qin Shihuang was the first emperor, the imperial seal was the symbol.
Unfortunately, the Imperial Seal has also disappeared, and no one has seen it now.
After what Ye Zhen said.
This Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang may also be Qin Shihuang's last backup plan.
The key to becoming a zombie.
However, Qin Shihuang, as the emperor of the ages, is also difficult to escape from the secular world, and he is also pursuing immortality.
I only heard Ye Zhen continue: "This underground palace, our technology cannot be turned on now.
Because we cannot guarantee that the contents inside will be well preserved after they are opened.
One day when our technology is developed enough, it will be the day to open the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang.
But Qin Shihuang had a very strange habit at that time.
That is, when Qin Shi Huang was worshiping, he was worshiping Chi You instead of the victorious Yellow Emperor.
We now claim to be descendants of the Yan and Huang Dynasties, according to logic.
The first emperor of Qin should worship the Yellow Emperor. Why did the first emperor of Qin worship Chi You, a defeated god? And Chi You has always appeared in the image of the devil in the history of our country.
The battle between Huang Di and Chi You was one of the three great battles between gods.
It was also because of this battle that the Yellow Emperor's status was established. "
However, Qin Shi Huang, who unified the six kingdoms, worshiped Chi You instead of Huang Di.
This is intriguing.
So why did Qin Shi Huang do this?
Strangely, the ancestor later worshiped by Liu Bang in the Han Dynasty was the Yellow Emperor.
Why did this happen? According to common sense, we are the descendants of Yan and Huang, and the Yellow Emperor is the winner.
Qin Shi Huang had no reason to sacrifice a failed demon named Chi You.
Is there some history here that we don’t know about?
What happened in the battle of the deer that year? Many viewers don't know this.
"Is the ancestor Qin Shi Huang worshiped Chi You?"
"This is impossible, why not worship the Yellow Emperor?"
"Something's wrong, something's starting to go wrong here."
Chi You is a special person in Chinese history.
What kind of person is he?
