Burial burial was popular in ancient China. It was recorded in Zhou Li that "all beings must die, and when they die, they must return to the earth", and Han Daigai also said that "when people die, ghosts return, essence returns to the sky, and meat returns to the earth." So people have to be buried in the ground after death to be at rest.
In addition, there is a saying that "after death is like living", so a large number of funerary objects are popular. "Coffins must be heavy, food and clothing must be plentiful, embroidery must be complicated, and hills and dragons must be huge." The higher the status, the more funerary objects will be buried after death, which also leads to the existence of the grave robbery industry since ancient times.
Reason:
Buried in the ground, the tomb is closed all the year round, the climate is cold, and the corpse decays, which will give people a creepy feeling. In this environment, people have the saying that there are zombies in the grave, which further increases the mystery and excitement of the grave robbery industry.
In the novel Ghost Blowing Lights, written by Muye Zhang, an online writer, the well-preserved corpse in the tomb is called Zongzi, the unclean things such as zombies and evil spirits are called "big Zongzi", and the rotten corpse of bones is called "dried Zongzi". Zongzi can be dealt with by black donkey hooves, black dog blood and Mo Dou.
