Mount Li, south of Qin Shihuang's mausoleum, is a lush mountain; The north faces the banks of the Weihe River, which twists and turns like a silver snake. Surrounded by towering peaks, the tall mausoleum and Mount Li are integrated, with beautiful scenery and unique environment. This mausoleum is large in scale and imposing.
Extended data
At present, archaeological exploration shows that the underground palace of Qin mausoleum is a vertical cave type. There may be a big wooden coffin with yellow intestines in the tomb. If it is a wooden coffin tomb with vertical holes, the pyramid-shaped mound and the upper part of the coffin are sealed with rammed earth. In this way, the tomb is tightly packed inside and outside, and there will be no more space. However, Li Si, one of the directors of the mausoleum, said, "If you don't dig, you will have it. If you don't burn, you will have it. If you knock, it will be empty, as follows." If Reese's words are recorded correctly, the underground palace is obviously shelled. It stands to reason that this passage can't be false. Because Reese personally presided over the mausoleum project as the left prime minister, he knew the structure of the underground palace like the back of his hand.
In addition, this passage is for the saints, so it should be said that there will be no suspicion of adulteration. According to Reese, it can be inferred that the Qin Mausoleum is a bunker-style underground palace with a sealed vacuum. Otherwise, how can it be "empty"? How to "burn but not burn"? According to the literature, the underground palace is empty and has a lot of space. However, since archaeological exploration has not yet reached the main part of the underground palace, it is still a mystery whether the inside of the underground palace is empty or true.

Treasure in the mausoleum of Qin Shihuang;
Jiuding, created by Dayu, represented high power and prosperous national luck in the past. It is said that he once sought Jiuding and wanted to replace Zhou Tianzi at that time. This is the source of "winning the Central Plains".
Precious ancient books, relevant data show that more than 1000 bamboo slips were found in the tombs at the same time as Qin Shihuang, most of which recorded the political and economic history of Qin Dynasty.

Tai 'ajian, Chu still regards it as the treasure of the town house. After Chu was not destroyed, this sword naturally fell into the hands of Qin Shihuang, who loved to collect swords. How could he forget to take this good sword to the grave?

Organs in Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum:
1, with crossbows.
In historical records, there is a story that Qin Shihuang ordered people to make crossbows, and whoever dared to approach the mausoleum was shot. In addition, there are similar records in Ban Gu's Hanshu. Judging from the crossbows unearthed from terracotta warriors and horses, the crossbows of Qin Shihuang's mausoleum can shoot at least 800 steps, and their skills reach more than 700 kilograms, which is extremely lethal.
2, serial flip.
The top is paved and paved, and the bottom is full of vertical sharp knives. Once it falls, it is immediately a white sword that passes through the heart and is killed on the spot. The interlocking petals in Qin Shihuang's tomb are more advanced. After the first group of people fell down, due to the role of physical strength, the flip board immediately recovered, and the next grave robber can use it, which is very advanced.
3. quicksand layer.
Anti-theft technology of quicksand has been found in many tombs during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in modern archaeology in China. Is to build a layer of quicksand in the mausoleum. Once the grave robbers dig a layer of quicksand, quicksand will keep pouring into the tomb, and it will also bury the grave robbers, which is very effective. In ancient Egypt, tombs were widely used, and Qin Shihuang's mausoleum was also famous for its quicksand layer.
4. Mercury pool.
We know that mercury is highly toxic, but it is reported that a large amount of mercury was put in the mausoleum of Qin Shihuang. It is not only used to make the shapes of rivers, lakes and oceans. Most importantly, mercury can greatly prevent grave robbers, because its volatile gas is enough to kill all grave robbers who enter. This has been confirmed by historians and archaeologists.
5, lying on the fire.
In fact, this hidden fire has the function of modern chemistry. In ancient tombs, most combustible gases were methane and combustible materials, and phosphorus was more in ancient times. The combination of the two can produce a huge flame. Once the tomb is called, the combination of the two substances will produce enough flame to devour all grave robbers. This kind is terrible and has been found many times in modern archaeology.
6. curse.
Many of them are also found in modern archaeology, and they are also engraved with incantations, such as "Whoever steals tiles will die" and "Whoever builds mountains will not become a monk", which means robbing tombs and leaving children childless. Moreover, in western grave robbery, this curse is even more absurd and chilling.
