This ancient tomb is "the first murderous tomb in China", in which 80 grave robbers died tragically. What is the reason?

In modern society, in order to prevent indoor property from being stolen by others, people usually set up a series of security measures, such as security cameras and security guards. Even in the house where we live, we should close the door when no one is around to avoid the invasion of thieves. The buildings on the ground are still like this. In fact, many tombs built by the ancients also have a lot of "safety measures", the purpose of which is to hope that they can get some peace after their death and not be disturbed by grave robbers.

Compared with modern times, these organs set up by ancient people are clean and tidy, often with crossbows, sandstone and gas as the main purpose, and their purpose is to make grave robbers die immediately. Therefore, grave robbery is also a dangerous activity for those grave robbers, and they may die if they are not careful. Archaeological teams have repeatedly found signs that grave robbers were killed by these organs when investigating ancient tombs. In this period, 80 grave robbers were killed in the tomb, including many dynasties, and this tomb is called the first tomb of China.

This mausoleum is located in Xiangyang, Hubei Province, and the process of discovering it is also very bizarre. At that time, it was planned to build a residential area somewhere in Xiangyang, but when the construction team was laying the foundation, a huge stone tablet was unexpectedly unearthed, on which a large number of ancient characters were carved. The captain of the construction team immediately realized that there was probably an ancient tomb below, which would be destroyed if the construction continued rashly, so he ordered the suspension of construction and invited the local archaeological team to conduct exploration.

Not long after, the archaeologist went to the site with the archaeological team and immediately carried out a protective excavation here. However, during the excavation, many stolen holes were found. According to the experience of archaeologists, this place must have been visited by grave robbers, so the possibility of finding cultural relics is greatly reduced and experts are inevitably lost.

But after all, we can't give up halfway, so archaeologists decided to find out and see if there were any other discoveries inside the ancient tomb. However, after reaching the interior of the tomb, experts found that the cultural relics were intact and there were a lot of bones near the stolen cave, which indicated that they were all grave robbers who came to rob the tomb at that time.

The reason why they lie here and die is because of the organs in the grave. They entered the tomb from the stolen hole they dug, which just triggered the mechanism in the tomb. So many grave robbers survived, so the cultural relics were well preserved.
