What is the mystery of Zhuge Liang’s tomb? Why has it not been discovered for thousands of years?
There is only an approximate location for Zhuge Liang’s tomb, which is not easy to find. Moreover, Zhuge Liang is too famous in the history of our country, and ancient people had a deep understanding of people after death, especially those who have the power of heaven. After the death of a talented person, many stories and imaginations will always appear. Therefore, it is difficult for us to confirm exactly where Zhuge Liang's tomb is from the many records and descriptions that are both true and false. We can only check them one by one. This method is time-consuming, laborious and requires manpower, so the progress is also very slow.
The Zhuge Liang Tomb at the foot of Dingjun Mountain may not be the place where Zhuge Liang was buried. Although it is called Wuhou Tomb, it is only based on the description of where Zhuge Liang was buried after his death in Li Daoyuan's "Shui Jing Zhu". The local records are not very accurate. At present, many ancestral halls in the Wuhou Cemetery were built for him by Zhuge Liang's descendants or admirers. They are used to commemorate Zhuge Liang's great achievements during his lifetime, and to make sacrifices for his future contribution to the country.
At present, many historical materials and folklore tell a story, saying that Zhuge Liang knew that he was not going to die soon. With his skills as a prophet, he also knew that the Shu Kingdom would not last long, and that the future direction of the Three Kingdoms was still the Wei Kingdom. One family is the largest and unified. Therefore, in order to make his death easier, he did not let the Wei people discover his cemetery, and asked that he be carried southward with a rope in his coffin until the rope broke before he was buried. This is not necessarily true, but it is also believable. But the person who carried the coffin left no record, so we don’t know if he was actually buried there.
In short, it is still a mystery where Zhuge Liang is buried, but there is still a high possibility that the army will be settled. After all, people would not build Wuhou Temple there for no reason. There must be a certain reason. Zhuge Liang died in Wuzhangyuan, so it is reasonable to be buried nearby in Hanzhong. Moreover, this place has already established a large scale and has a far-reaching reputation. There is little point in trying to find where Zhuge Liang is.
