Chen Cheng walked in front holding a flashlight, looking around vigilantly, fearing that some big insect would come out again. He would really be scared to death.
After the braziers on the wall were lit, the entire passage instantly became much brighter, and the cold feeling dissipated a lot, leading people into a stone chamber.
He said, "Professor, look over there. I took one of the porcelains from the corner. Don't move the large vats in the four corners. There might be bugs in them."
Professor Bai nodded, pushed his reading glasses and observed carefully. The whole stone chamber looked square, with two coffins in the middle. Judging from the material, it was clear that they were not for high-ranking officials.
They were just servants who were buried alive with the dead. There were porcelain items randomly placed in the corner, which were basically pots, pans, and other daily necessities. They were obviously slaves who were buried alive with the dead.
I slowly walked into the coffin and opened it with a flashlight. Inside was a skeleton wearing ancient linen clothes that had long been weathered by time.
When I walked around the coffin to take another look, I saw the skeleton lying next to the coffin. The clothes were obviously not from ancient times. There were military uniforms from the Republic of China period, and some were obviously modern clothes.
When Professor Bai saw the clothes, his heart skipped a beat and he had a bad feeling. He realized that the most feared thing about ancient tombs was encountering corpses from later generations that did not fit the era.
This means that if tomb robbers visit the main tomb chamber, there is a high probability that valuable antiques will be taken away. The professor sighed and could only hope that the tomb robbers did not enter the main tomb chamber.
Li Fumei walked to the corner and looked at the porcelain, and asked quietly: "Master, did the ancients use these to store food?"
"Well, it's just for the master. Servants used earthenware jars, and porcelain was not something they were qualified to use. In ancient times, there was a strict hierarchy, and there were very clear divisions between people."
"But it's the same in modern times. The rich and the poor live in different worlds. Where there are people, there are classes."
Su Chen twitched his lips when he heard this: "Yes, it's the same everywhere, except that modern times are a little better for the poor, and they can cross the social class through their own efforts."
"In ancient times, slaves were always slaves. Their lives were not their own. A single word from their masters could cost them their lives."
Li Fumei blinked, her eyes full of curiosity about the unknown: "So that's how it is. Then it's quite fortunate that I was reincarnated into this era. If I were in ancient times, I probably wouldn't have had any books to read."
"Ha, in ancient times, women were considered virtuous even without talent. Girls from ordinary families were not allowed to study. Let's go and take a look over there."
After they walked around the stone chamber and didn't find any precious antiques, Professor Bai said, "Let's go inside and see if we can find anything."
Everyone left the stone chamber and continued walking inside along the passage. There was only the sound of footsteps along the way, and they soon arrived at the second stone chamber.
This room is very different from the previous one. What you can see are rows of mud horses, donkeys and other animals, as well as carts with baskets of moldy things on them.
Chen Cheng came forward to take a look and exclaimed, "Professor, come and take a look. These seem to be the food eaten by ancient people. They have been stored for so many years, I am afraid they have lost their vitality."
"This one looks like wheat, and this one looks a bit like a sweet potato. Could this have existed thousands of years ago? But the historical records don't quite match them. Which dynasty is this from?"
"Compared to the Northern Song Dynasty, it was a very prosperous period."
Professor Bai hurried forward, a look of surprise on his face. "If it's the prince's tomb recorded in history books, there's more evidence for records of that period. I just hope it hasn't been damaged too badly."
"This looks like the food buried with the deceased. It's the hope that after death, they would have enough food and clothing and servants to serve them. It matches the minister's tomb. The ancients believed that there was an afterlife."
The group walked through three stone chambers in a row, and basically all of them contained things for daily life. They didn't see anything valuable, such as letters, gold, silver, or other precious jewelry.
