There was smoke coming out of the ancestral grave of an old Han family in Hubei. Why did experts order the mountain to be closed?
People who believe in Feng Shui believe that smoke coming out of ancestral graves is a sign of good fortune, indicating that the descendants of the tomb owner will be promoted and make a fortune. This statement is obviously unscientific. If cremation is used instead of burial, then will future generations have no future? And sometimes, smoke coming out of ancestral graves is not necessarily a good thing.
We know that China has been a popular country for burial since ancient times. The "Book of Zhou" writes: "All living things must die, and after death they must return to the earth." This burial custom dates back to the Paleolithic period. It had already emerged, and by the feudal dynasty, burial had become a system closely related to superstition.
"Liyun" says: "The soul returns to the sky, and the body returns to the earth." That is to say, after death, the body is buried in the ground, and the soul can return to the sky. Since people strongly believe in the world after death, they place a large number of funerary objects in their tombs, which often leads to no peace after death.
In 2018, a strange thing happened in Dayuan Qiaoshang Village, Jintang Town, Chongyang County, Hubei Province. An old man named Sun was about to go home after working in the fields. He just turned around Then he saw a plume of green smoke rising from his ancestral grave, which was some distance away from the fields. Fortunately, Old Man Sun had good eyesight and the weather was good, so Old Man Sun saw the plume of green smoke.
Old man Sun was not as happy as he expected. Instead, he looked anxious. He even threw the hoe aside and hurriedly ran to the ancestral grave. As expected, a big hole was opened in the ancestral grave. . Damn thief! ?Old man Sun shouted worriedly. A few days ago, some villagers saw smoke coming from Old Man Sun's ancestral grave. Old man Sun didn't pay much attention to it. He just burned some paper money in front of his house. But this time Old man Sun saw it in person. , only to realize that something was wrong. The green smoke was the same color as the smoke from firecrackers set off during the New Year and festivals. In addition, he heard a faint muffled sound, so Old Man Tian suspected that someone might be robbing the tomb. Unfortunately, he came too late. step.
Old Man Sun had no choice but to call the police when he returned home. About an hour later, several police cars and a jeep arrived at Old Man Sun’s house. Several archaeological experts got out of the jeep before they had a chance to sit down. , and quickly asked Old Man Sun to take them up the mountain.
As soon as they arrived at the scene, the experts’ faces darkened. There were four or five large and small robber holes. It was obvious that the ancestral tombs of Sun Laohan's family might have been robbed, so the experts decided to continue the rescue excavation of the ancestral tombs of Sun Laohan's family and sealed them that afternoon. Mountain.
After investigation, it was found that the ancestral tomb that was stolen from Old Han Sun’s family was an ancient tomb from the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty. There were also copper coins left behind by the tomb robbers when they escaped, and there were even many worthless bottles in the tomb. The jars were not taken away, and these clues can prove the year in which the tomb was located. The more precious things had been carried away by the tomb robbers. When Old Man Sun's family heard this, they stamped their feet in anger. I wish I could immediately find the tomb robber and beat him up.
Old man Sun said that his ancestors have been living here for generations. He had long heard that his ancestors had a rich man. Later, his family declined, but he still did not leave his hometown. The ancestral graves are here and his family has taken root here. Now that his ancestral graves have been robbed, Old Man Sun said that he will not be able to see his ancestors for a hundred years. He hopes that the abominable tomb robbers can be caught soon and that Old Man Sun can sleep peacefully
