Born in Suzhou and Hangzhou and buried in Beimang---what does it mean?
Born in Suhang and buried in Beimang! It means that the Suzhou-Hangzhou area is a paradise on earth and the most suitable for human habitation; while Mang Mountain in Luoyang has been home to the tombs of emperors and generals since ancient times and is the most suitable for cave dwellings. This land behind the rising earth energy is a reason for the locals to comfort themselves. The simple people firmly believe that the Feng Shui of Beimang will bring unlimited wealth and well-being to their children and grandchildren. People in this city enjoy this happiness happily! This happiness in the afterlife actually fulfills people's current lives.
Born in Suzhou and Hangzhou, buried in Beimang, is a widely circulated saying, which reflects that Beimang Mountain in Luoyang is a geomantic treasure. This is also true. Not only are thirteen dynasties established here, but there is also the largest ancient tomb museum in the country.
After the Luoyang Ancient Tombs Museum was built in 1987, Xinhua News Agency's "Lookout" magazine, the first domestic news weekly in the country, launched the "Pearl Beach" literary supplement. Wang Geng talked to the editor about the Luoyang Ancient Tombs Museum. The situation in the tomb museum naturally led to a talk about the history of Luoyang, which aroused great interest in the editor and suggested that he could write a serial article, and the title was "Many Ancient Tombs in Luoyang".
The writing work was taken over from this, but the real in-depth interview in Luoyang, from the Luoyang Ancient Tomb Museum to the Cultural Relics Bureau, the Tourism Bureau and then to Yanshi County, I completed several large interview notebooks, Luoyang I went in and out of the underground exhibition hall of the Tomb Museum many times and took many volumes of photos. The interview was indeed very tiring.
The Luoyang Ancient Tomb Museum was built on Mang Mountain. When it first opened, there were no buses. The conditions of the Ancient Tomb Museum were also very simple. The wind on Mang Mountain was still very cold in early spring. At noon, Wang Genghe Museum The curator Huang Minglan and the commentator gathered around the coal stove in the large cafeteria, eating stewed vermicelli and eating rice while talking. This kind of interview life is unforgettable.
The difficulty of the interview was overcome with persistence. The difficulty was in writing. It was Wang Geng's first time writing about cultural relics. There was no room for imagination in the composition, words and sentences. Every conclusion must have an expert's opinion, and every evaluation must have a source. It was not a writing manuscript but an "archaeological" manuscript. Finally, Completed this set of manuscripts "Many Ancient Tombs in Luoyang",
