Chapter 304 Reasoning
"This is something from the Yuan Dynasty."

Fang Ming was dumbfounded by Liang Bo's words, but Guan Fu also exclaimed, "Ah! Professor Liang, didn't you say that those tombs are all from the Northern Song Dynasty? How could there be an antique from the Yuan Dynasty?" ?”

Guan Fu is not an expert in antiques or history, but she also knows that this is quite unreasonable.

The Song Dynasty in history was divided into the Southern and Northern Song. The Northern Song Dynasty was from 960 to 1127. Its capital was established in Bianliang in the north, which is today’s KF City in Henan. In history, it is the continuation of the Song Dynasty.After the famous Jingkang Incident in history, Song Huizong and Song Qinzong were captured by the Kingdom of Jin, and the Northern Song Dynasty perished. Then Song Huizong’s ninth son, Kang Wang Zhao Gou, inherited the throne in Nanjing, Yingtianfu, which is today’s Shangqiu, and later moved the capital to Shaoxing Lin’an. Generally speaking, after the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty, it was a regime established in the south of the Yangtze River by the Song royal family after the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty.

The Yuan Dynasty was a dynasty established by the Mongols from 1271 to 1368. This is the first unified empire established by a minority in Chinese history. It was established by Kublai Khan in 1721 according to the "Book of Changes". "Dazai Qianyuan" means that the name of the country was changed to Yuan, and the Southern Song Dynasty was destroyed in 1279, and the whole of China was unified.

In other words, in terms of historical time, the Northern Song Dynasty was before the Yuan Dynasty, so it is not surprising if the cultural relics and antiques of the Northern Song Dynasty appeared in the tombs of the Yuan Dynasty, but if the cultural relics and antiques of the Yuan Dynasty appeared in the tombs of the Northern Song Dynasty, then That's weird.This doesn't make sense at all logically.

At this moment, Fang Ming didn't think about the matter from this angle. After being reminded by Liang Bo, he took the bowl and looked at it carefully.

Porcelain in the Song Dynasty is a peak in the history of ceramic development. The porcelain sites discovered now are distributed all over the country, covering 130 counties, but all dynasties add up to 170 porcelain sites.

As the peak of porcelain in history, the porcelain of the Song Dynasty can be divided into two major systems, the north and the south, and each system is further subdivided. For example, the northern system is divided into Ding kiln system, Yaozhou kiln system, Jun kiln system and Cizhou kiln Department; but in the south is the Longquan Celadon Department and JDZ Qingbai Department.

Although there are differences between the various systems due to the choice of raw materials and other reasons, as porcelain in the same dynasty, subject to economic, political and cultural influences, they have unified characteristics.

The general characteristics of Song Dynasty porcelain are simple and profound, simple and elegant, but also varied. Porcelain of various systems radiates different vitality, and promotes each other in the competition, and finally forms a peak.In terms of vessel shape, there are many shapes of porcelain at this time, but the most popular ones are plum vases and jade pot springs.

The plum vase first appeared in the Tang Dynasty. It is a kind of porcelain with a small mouth, short neck, thick shoulders, thin bottom, and round feet.Because the body of the bottle is relatively slender, it is also called a Jing bottle, which can be used to hold wine.

Different from the plum vase, the jade pot spring vase has a skimming mouth, a thin neck, a round belly, and a round foot. It is also one of the most distinctive and popular porcelains in the Song Dynasty.

In addition, the glaze color of Song Dynasty porcelain is beautiful and picturesque, elegant but subtle, like jade. Among them, monochromatic porcelain is inseparable. The most well-known one is Jun Kiln. In terms of decoration, The patterns are mainly flowers, birds, insects and fish, while the methods include printing, engraving, engraving and so on.

Because the Yuan Dynasty was a dynasty ruled by ethnic minorities, the porcelain at this time had an obvious grassland ethnic style. For example, in terms of shape, the porcelain at this time was thick and ancient. Underglaze red...

Fang Ming is no longer what it used to be. He is very familiar with the characteristics of porcelain from various dynasties. At this time, one by one came out of his mind, and with the help of Pixiu's ability, he immediately judged When he came out, what Liang Bo said was not wrong at all.

"It is indeed an object from the Yuan Dynasty. What's going on?"

Fang Ming frowned tightly, and things became more and more strange, "Could it be that this tomb has been stolen and dug before?"

Tomb robbery is not a "profession" that only appeared in modern times. In fact, it started very early. For example, in the legend, Cao Cao is a "grave robber" in a certain sense.What Fang Ming meant was that these tombs in the Northern Song Dynasty were robbed and dug later, for example, in the Yuan Dynasty. inside.

This is indeed a possibility, and this possibility is the most logical, but is this the case?

"What you said is indeed one of the possibilities, but because those graves have been dug in a mess before we went, so there is no way to be sure now."

Liang Bo sighed, this is indeed a rather regrettable thing.If the relevant state departments go in to dig, every step of the excavation will leave records and a lot of photos. It is possible to find out such things. It can be completely proved that it was indeed stolen and dug before, but it is meaningless to say this now.

Fang Ming frowned again, and he remembered what Liang Bo said earlier, which meant that this bowl was very important—if it was only because the antiques from the Yuan Dynasty appeared in the tombs of the Song Dynasty, it couldn’t be said that way, or Take it so seriously.

Because the speculation I just made is theoretically possible, Liang Bo is naturally quite clear, so there must be other reasons.

"I was thinking, if the tomb was really stolen and dug before, why are there so many cultural relics and antiques left in the tomb?"

Liang Bo's words made Fang Ming stunned. That's right, what Liang Bo said was not wrong at all. If it was really stolen and dug up, how could there be so many antiques in the tomb three years ago?

This is not reasonable!

What is the goal of the tomb robbery?Of course, it is the funerary objects in those tombs, so if the bowl in front of me was really brought in by the tomb robbers later, then since they went in, they would definitely take away the contents. The fact is that those tombs There are also a large number of antiques and treasures in there, which is not normal at all.

"So, this is fundamentally contradictory. Of course, unless there are aliens or something, this is even more impossible."

Fang Ming rubbed his nose again and again until his nose turned red, and finally he thought of a possibility:
"Old Liang, do you think it is possible... This bowl was brought in by the tomb robbers later, but the tomb robbers saw something special after entering, and they were so scared that they backed out, so the cultural relics, antiques and treasures in the tomb and so on stayed."

Antiques are actually closely related to tomb robbery. It can even be said that many antiques are obtained from tomb robbery. Fang Ming, who is related to it, has heard many mysterious stories about tomb robbery.

For example, a certain tomb robber entered the tomb and ran into evil. After exiting, he either died or went crazy. There are hundreds of such antiques, one after another. They are simply antique collectors. The biggest talking point after dinner.

Liang Bo obviously thought about this possibility, nodded immediately, and said, "Yes, I also think this is very likely the reason. If this speculation is true, what we want to know is that the tomb robber back then What exactly did the thief see after entering the tomb, so that even the most courageous tomb robbers fled?"

Who dares to do the business of tomb robbery is not a person with long hair on his guts?
After all, this is a matter of digging people's ancestral graves and dealing with the dead all day long. It is definitely not an ordinary thing to make such a person ignore the treasures in the grave.In fact, for grave robbers, ordinary so-called ghosts can no longer frighten them.

Thinking of this, Fang Ming gradually understood what Liang Bo meant.

People who study these antiques in front of them now have strange diseases or die inexplicably, thinking that it must be a problem with the cultural relics and antiques in the tomb. Speculation: The tomb robbers must have seen something scary when they went in, so they gave up the treasures in the tomb, and what the tomb robbers saw may be the key factor that causes the researchers to get sick or die now.

"Old Liang, do you mean that the thing that caused the tomb robbers to give up and continue to rob the tomb is the thing that causes the researchers to get sick or die today?"

Liang Bo hesitated for a while, but finally nodded and said, "I think it's possible."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Bo smiled wryly and said, "This point of view is really a bit of nonsense... But for now, I can only think so."

"I have studied all the antiques that were unearthed, and I didn't find anything special. What you said just now may be a whimsical idea of ​​mine. After you brought this bowl today, Fang Ming, I think it It should be used as evidence, but of course, this evidence is not very strong."

Fang Ming also smiled wryly in his heart, it's not just hard?Simply a guess.But it is impossible to find other possibilities besides this-at least for now.

"The only way, it seems, is to find the people who dug those graves."

In fact, the most direct and powerful proof is the original appearance of the tombs. For example, as I said before, if holes dug by robbers are found in these tombs, then it is certain that someone actually entered them at that time.

Guan Fu frowned all of a sudden, and said, "We have been staying for three years, and we have investigated for three years, and there is still no result until now."
