But that’s just my personal thoughts on my analysis of ... they fled. He got angry and had 460 fang shih and scholars killed. The First Emperor continued his search for immortality.

The terra-cotta army may have been the to scare off evil spirits or even to prove how powerful he was to the other immortals. As I said earlier the First Emperor caught the big fish on the coast.
