After saying that, Xiaohua asked me if I could tell which dynasty everything here was established in.

I said: "It's hard to say that this is not a typical historic site. If it is the site of an ancient tomb or a temple, its sculptures and architecture will contain a lot of cultural details, and it is easy to know its dynasty. But if you find For the ruins of a blacksmith shop, unless the blacksmith shop is part of a large ancient city ruins, it is difficult for you to know its age because there are too few places in the blacksmith shop that carry cultural information."

Various things here, including the stone carvings on the walls and the iron plates here, all the patterns and textures on them lack the unique characteristics of a certain dynasty. Therefore, it is almost impossible to judge in which era they were built, and I did not delve into it. Because I have subconsciously associated them with style thunder.

There are iron tools here. Officially, the earliest appearance is in the Spring and Autumn Period. However, due to the presence of meteorite, it is actually difficult to judge the age based on iron tools alone. However, because Style Lei is involved, even if it was not established in the Qing Dynasty, it must have been used in the Qing Dynasty.

I always think that there is no reason why I, an undergraduate in the People's Republic of China, can't handle things that Style Lei can handle. "Do you think you can tell anything from the dynasties here?" I asked.

"Chinese tomb culture is constantly developing. All kinds of exquisite mechanisms have very clear characteristics of the times, and the more developed the dynasty, the more technological leaps will occur. For example, the pigeon fan that appeared in the Han Dynasty, in the Tang Dynasty It developed into a connecting board. Because the Liao people were located in the northern cold land, the ancient tombs there often used poisonous materials to remove stones. In the Qing Dynasty, the introduction of foreign mechanical technology enriched the development of strange and ingenious techniques, and even We have made a mechanism that can restore itself without making any sound. If you can know what era this place was built in, you can probably know how many possibilities there are." Xiaohua said: "To give an extreme example, this place is definitely not modern, so then There’s no such thing as infrared for us to worry about.”

I also heard my grandfather say this, and it is indeed true, but I think it is too risky to use this trick here. Because I have experienced a lot of things before, I understand that in this mystery of thousands of years ago, the only thing I can be sure of is that the ancients cannot be underestimated.

My grandfather also told me another example. He saw a very strange pottery in a tomb from the Northern Zhou Dynasty, which was a long pottery bottle. It is full of holes for fingers, more like a musical instrument. He thought he had found a vessel used for "filtering", but when he picked up the pottery, he found that it was very, very heavy. Then when he turned the thing upside down and wanted to see what was going on, at that moment, from that pottery There are many small stone-carved hands sticking out of the holes in the pottery. All the hands have an arc, with the hand in half of the hole extending to the left, and the arm in the other side of the hole extending to the right.

All the hands form a fan shape like a peacock spreading its wings.

With this composition, his eyes naturally focused on the middle of the fan shape.

I saw a black Buddha statue protruding from the hole in the middle of the row at the center line. With the Buddha's hands on both sides, it looks like a Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara embedded in a bottle.

He was stunned at that time, because at that moment, "things" grew out of all the holes at the same time, and they immediately grew into such a thing. The process was actually extremely shocking. He even thought that the bottle was a living thing.

Later, this thing was lost when he fled and was never seen again. However, he liked to miss it very much and wanted modern craftsmen to copy it. However, no modern craftsmen could make it because they could not burn it after it had been burned. Good pottery has a mechanism inside it. Even if you try to make it look like it, it's not like that at all.

There should not have been such exquisite skills in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Grandpa told me that this shows that there will be some people in every dynasty who completely transcend the era in which they live. The more inexplicable the ancient tomb is, the more unconventional the place is, the more likely it is to see this kind of thing.

However, we couldn't analyze the dynasties here anyway, so I didn't say too much to Xiaohua, so we had to continue thinking. You still have to understand the strangeness in the photo.

However, if we put it this way, what does this figure imply? This is much more difficult than simply finding graphic information from these graphics because it is more unorganized. If only people in their family knew about the strange thing, it would be basically impossible to guess it.

In addition, there is basically no information about this mysterious family, so we are basically facing an unsolvable situation.

Thinking of this, I immediately began to admire the designers of this bureau. If this is a measure to prevent tomb robbing, it is simply too successful.

I remember my grandfather said that there are several levels of anti-theft measures, and all large ancient tombs often have such features.

The first is that it cannot be found; the second is that it cannot be opened; and the third is that it cannot be taken away. This ancient Zhangjia building has achieved perfection in almost every aspect. No wonder no one has been able to do anything about it for so many years.

But, thinking about it this way, isn’t there nothing we can do? The only thing that can be done now is to leave here and go everywhere to collect information about the Zhangjia Building. With the degree of secrecy of the Zhangjia Ancient Building, regardless of whether it can be found, even if there is some information, it will probably take more than half a year. Besides, the information is useless.

Thinking of this, I feel very depressed. I am such a person. As long as there is a little hope, I will be full of energy. However, once my consciousness judges that this thing is impossible, then I will immediately collapse. Xiaohua listens to me. After that, he fell silent.

We have been delayed a lot of time since the things were sent to us. But I had no clue and I felt a little hopeless. It feels like even if we try in vain for a few more days, we can only send a letter back and tell the old woman: "Sorry, we can't figure it out. Or let's go back to Beijing and take a shower and see if there is any other solution?"

I don't mind, but I always feel that if I do this, the Wu family will lose all their face, although in fact, the Wu family still has no shame left. However, I know that Xiaohua cannot give up so easily.

He was silent for a moment and then said to the Sichuan guy: "Send a letter for me and tell them that the photo cannot be decrypted. We will take our own measures to make them wait for a while."

The Chengdu guy nodded, but his face changed slightly: "Boss, can you come by yourself? Do you want to call sir?"

Xiaohua shook her head: "It's okay, I can handle it."

The guy nodded and went out. I pulled the rope and sent him out. At the same time, I asked Xiaohua: "What do we mean by our own method? What else can we do now?"

"Change your thinking mode. If you can't solve all the tricks and tricks head on, you can use a more barbaric method."

I still don’t understand. He took a sip of soju and said, “If you can’t restore a Rubik’s Cube, what’s the easiest way?” He made a breaking motion, “Pick out all the colors on the Rubik’s Cube. , re-paste it according to your idea."

"Ah, you mean? You want-"

"I want to unlock the mechanism from the inside." He said, "I want to go behind these cave walls and see what the structure of this mechanism is." ④ Read on Tianshu Chinese website
