The tail stone sculpture on the tomb pavilion is a symbol of the status of the official.
A 130-year-old official of the Wuqing officials of the Qing Dynasty was thrown into the corpse wilderness by robbers. After the news was issued, it attracted a lot of attention.

Yesterday, in the Shanglou Village, Songgang Street, Xiapu County, where the stolen ancient tomb was located, constantly curious villagers heard the news and wanted to see the true face of this “city†official.
The valuables on the dried corpse are completely missing
Yesterday, the descendants of the tomb owner arrived at the scene early and came to recognize the dead. They are local kings. At present, the dead body has been transported to the funeral home in Xiapu County for safekeeping. On the same day, the Wang Clan people cleared the ancient tomb. Lei Xieqing, a staff member of the Xiapu County Museum, told the tombstone thief that he stepped on the spot very early and took the tombstone directly into the burial chamber, dragged the corpse away, abandoned it on the open space 15 meters away, and began to search for the funerary objects.
Xiaolei explained that the clothes on the corpses were all untied, turned upside down, and the official caps and belts were gone. According to Xiapu’s local customs, if an official is buried, the official cap has a Jade Embroidery. The belt is also decorated with precious decorations. A copper mirror is placed on the chest and coins and other items are placed on the chest. Unfortunately, these things have been stolen by robbers. With the consent of the Wang clan, official clothes on the corpses have been brought back to the museum for preservation.
Although the tomb pavilions cleared by the Wang clan on the site have been torn apart, the various components are well preserved.
Stone pavilion is very official features
“The body of the squid, the head of the dragon, this stone sculpture is strange!†With a burst of exclamation, many onlookers were holding cameras and mobile phones to take pictures of a stone sculpture that had been cleared out of the tomb. "This is Shanwei, the dragon's ninth son." Xiao Lei, a museum worker, said that in the ancient building, Shanwei was only known as a government official, meaning "a steady rise" and "one person got his way, and the dog was ascended to heaven."
According to reports, this piece of stone carving is the top cover of the tomb pavilion, and a piece of stone carved with "Jia Lao Dian", as well as various pieces of stone pillars engraved with the couplet, have also been discovered one after another. "These are all set on the tomb pavilions," Xiao Lei said. The tomb pavilions with such exquisite carvings are very rare. It is recommended that future generations restore the original tomb pavilions when they rebuild the ancient tombs. In addition, five or six stone tablets were found in the ancient tomb, one of which stated that the tomb-builders were the three sons and six grandchildren of the tomb owner.
The scene can clearly see the long head on the back of the head
The Xiapu clan tribe was once prominent
At the scene, the tombstone was engraved with the hall number of the "Taiyuan Church." Both the local family of Wen's and Wang's family use the "Taiyuan Church." "This tomb was found 20 years ago when the genealogy was compiled, but it was not found." 78-year-old Wang Jingrong said that he had the same original tombstone copied from the genealogical records as the stolen tomb. The identity of the owner of the tomb.
Wang Jingrong introduced that this Wang’s was the first year of Guangxu (1875) in the Qing Dynasty and it had migrated from the Fuluying Camp near Fushan’s Yushan Mountain. The founder of the dry corpse was Wang Kai, the third generation of the Wang family in Xiapu. “Five officials of the Fengzheng government have donated money,†said 67-year-old Wang Jianren. After the family came from Fuzhou, they started doing business in Xiapu City, sewing, bowling, and selling fish. Later, the business became more and more. Big, the population is also multiplying. He recalled that when he was young, his ancestral tablet had a decree box in front of him, but he was burned in 1958.
The feet of the corpses were still wearing official shoes of the year.
The direct descendants of the tomb may have suffered a change
Why are there so many descendants of the family, but this large-scale, beautifully crafted tomb has not been sacrificed? Wang Jianren said that some people in the family said that the tomb was a "tiger's tomb," and he was fierce and unwilling to come. He said that the descendants of Mekong died a lot in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, so everyone felt that his tomb was too fierce. Wang Jianren recalled that the direct line of Mekong was moved to Ningde City very early. However, it was also said that in the turmoil of the year, the male descendants of the tomb's direct descendants were drafted and no information was heard from then on.
Xiaolei said that Xiapu had a saying: "Wang Yiyi's family property - a family can't understand defeat," said Wang Ayi, a Wang clan tribe who completely lost all his family's business, and finally sold his family property to sell his ancestral property. Zheng Chaozhong. This ancient dwelling is located at No. 95, Fuqian Road, Songcheng Sub-district, Xiapu County. This is the origin of the local "Wang Xufeng (transliteration, building an ancestor of Wang Ayi's ancestors) and Zheng Chaozhong's residence."
“Wang clan people are willing to donate their dead bodies for research without compensation.†Xichun County museum director Wu Chunming said that if scientific research institutions have intentions, they can contact them.
