Building an underground hospital, I didn't expect to dig up an ancient tomb.
197 1 At the end of the year, Hunan Military Region Hospital decided to build an underground hospital under two slopes of Mawangdui. However, in the process of construction, a serious landslide was encountered, and many combustible gases appeared in the landslide, which burned immediately after contact with the flame. The occurrence of this phenomenon made the construction site panic, and no one dared to dig any more. According to this situation, the person in charge of the hospital guessed that the ancient tomb was probably dug up, so he reported it to the local cultural relics bureau. Under the excavation of experts, a world-famous Mawangdui Han Tomb appeared in front of people.
If you want to say what is the most precious cultural relic in this ancient tomb, there is no doubt that it must be Mrs. Xin Zhui, a woman corpse that will not rot for thousands of years. When the corpse was first unearthed, its shape was complete, its whole body was wet, its muscles were very elastic, and some joints could move freely, almost like fresh corpses. It was later confirmed that the female corpse was the wife of Li Cang, the prime minister of Changsha, because the preservative in the coffin was very intact. If it is not really unearthed from the tomb, many people think that she is just asleep, so it is also called "the sleeping beauty of the East". Mawangdui Han Tomb is also called "Oriental Pompeii City" by westerners.
Mrs Xin Zhui is a well-deserved national treasure of our country. Its excavation has provided a great deal of medical knowledge for world medicine. Not only that, she has extremely high historical research on beauty, history, culture and archaeology. The secrets hidden in her body are inexhaustible for our lives. Even Japanese archaeologists wanted to study female corpses together, but fortunately they were rejected by experts in China. In addition to this female corpse, silk books and medical classics unearthed in the ancient tomb also have high historical research value. One of the ancient books that surprised experts the most was The Four Classics of the Yellow Emperor.
The Four Classics of the Yellow Emperor was first published in Fu Zi before the silk book Lao Zi Yi Ben, which was then called Lao Zi Yi Ben Qian Gu Shu. Many medical contents are recorded in the book, which provides very important historical value for the study of ancient medicine. Later, driven by the curiosity of experts, the book was studied in detail. Who knows that the results of this study are surprising? I didn't expect this book to be the Four Classics of the Yellow Emperor, which has been lost for thousands of years.
It can be said that it is a book of "the foundation of governing the country". The book consists of four articles, which provides a reliable historical basis for experts to study the descendants of the Yellow Emperor, and also provides very important historical materials for ancient Chinese medical research. The medical content provided in the book is no less than the expert's excavation of Mrs. Xin Zhui, which can be said to be a well-deserved national treasure of our country. This book, together with Gui Zang, Lao Zi and Zhuangzi, is several original classics of the Chinese nation. It is an important culture passed down from history and the crystallization of the wisdom of our ancestors. What we are defending together is an excellent culture.
