Chapter 43: It's time for a brain-opening deduction
Xing Jie already felt that he had nothing to love, and now he can fully understand the feeling when Tang Xuanzang worked hard to obtain the true scriptures, only to find that it was all waste paper.
I'm tired.
Wouldn't it be good to be out there quietly admiring those jewels?
Why be so eager to break the illusion in your heart?
But since this has come to this, then this is the only way to go. It's not like in the movie, the door closes and opens again, wow, the old hen turns into a duck, and a room of construction waste turns into gold, silver and jewelry?
Now that we've reached this point, let's go down and take a look. In any case, those buildings are still in the pre-Qin style, without considering the value, learn from the experience of some ancients, this may be able to brag at the wine table in the future, right?
As for those tattered statues, broken pots and broken tiles broken in half, let's leave it to Professor Yang and other professionals to deal with. Besides, since Xing Jie entered this industry, he has never done repair work at all, and if he really wants to force it, he really looks up to him.
Well, it seems that Professor Yang has recovered first, and his originally confused eyes have now regained their clarity.
As for whether the others are still nervous there, it's not Xing Jie's concern.
"Old man, shall we go down?" Xing Jie asked softly.
Professor Yang took a long breath and slowly exhaled it again. After a long time, he said with difficulty: "Well, let's go down and have a look." In any case, it seems to be a sacrificial area, and there must still be a culture that should be, but I don't know if there will be some literary discoveries.
I'm disappointed, but I still have to sort out the things below. As long as we find an object with a written heritage, then our excavation will be considered more than half successful. ”
The engineers were busy setting up the lighting there, and Professor Yang was there to measure the size of the entire space.
Who would have imagined that under the sand sea of Lop Nur, there would be a huge space with a height of 120 meters and an area of more than 200,000 square meters?
Not to mention how to dig it out? Just talking about how to cap such a huge space can make it difficult for everyone to die! Even if it is put into modern times, it is a huge project, let alone in ancient times.
With Professor Yang's order, everyone began their work. Li Sishi, they are mainly sorting, not important, just put it on the cart on the side, and when it is full, someone will naturally transport them out, and there are still a large number of professional students waiting to be sorted again.
Can you imagine the scene of a small car pulling a pile of rags and crushing the floor paved with top-grade mutton fat jade? Looking distressed, Xing Jie couldn't understand this, and the armed police boys who escorted him couldn't figure it out.
As for Mrs. Yang and Yang Le, their faces were even more cold. Of course, they knew how much risk Professor Yang had taken for this excavation, and how much favor he had lost.
If it is really as speculated, this time it will really be a success and go down in history. But so far, all that has been shipped out is piles of garbage.
Although it has not yet been shipped out, it is already possible to make a conclusion. As a scientific research, this discovery can be said to be huge and of great significance. But for another purpose, this time it was a complete failure.
Xing Jie was amazed while taking photos. Although most of these buildings have collapsed, many have been completely destroyed. However, it can be seen from the few buildings that are basically intact that these are definitely not the architectural styles of the Han, Jin, Sui and Tang dynasties, because there are no inscriptions of later dynasties. The style of the decoration is very simple, so simple that it is impossible to determine the age.
Is it really the pre-Qin period?
It's true that the roof structure of the heavy eaves hall is right, but what the hell is the whole body using a stone structure?
What about the good wood-bone mud wall?
How is this possible? The first books of architectural history, "Examination of the Gongji" and "Han Feizi", have a clear explanation, and the 'Maots Soil Steps' were an important symbol of the imperial palace at that time.
Remember, it's a palace, not to mention the other buildings. Building a wall of earth vividly illustrates everything, that is, ordinary houses are far from being so close to nature as they are on TV, to put it bluntly, they are a small mud house covered with thatch.
If you still don't understand it, if you still don't know, you can read Du Fu's "Song of the Thatched House Broken by the Autumn Wind", which is very vivid.
Even many places in the Western Han Dynasty Palace are still painted with mud, and every woman in the palace is still living in the Jiaofang Palace as the highest goal of life, and you have begun to use all-stone buildings here?
It's China, not the Egyptians who only build houses with stones.
I really don't know, I hate this kind of ethnic fusion at every turn, east and west, everything is good-looking, and it has no characteristics of its own.
Don't say anything about the architect's own ideas, bullshit, it's good that those craftsmen can save their lives, and give back their own ideas? You try it out of the system? Believe it or not, cut off your head in minutes?
Xing Jie gave up, and he just had to look at the subtle places. As for the other specific details, when all of them are excavated here, there are naturally ancient architectural masters who write books and say, and then slowly appreciate and savor them at that time.
Now, let's take a look around.
Anyway, it's okay to be idle, and it's good to find someone to chat.
"Brother, take a break. I know you're not happy, but since it's already like this, what else can you do? ”
"Alas, Xing Jie. You are different from us, this time it was the teacher who forced you in, we know this. In the end, it's okay for you to slap your ass and leave, but the teacher's life is miserable. ”
"No, why doesn't it sound right, can it be that I am blamed for this?"
"That's not what I meant. The main thing is that the hope is too great, and I didn't expect the disappointment to come so quickly. The teacher said at the time that this kind of thing should be considered more. After all, there is no superfluous evidence, and if you rely on a single piece of information to prove it, the theoretical data is too single, and the risk of failure is too great.
But we and a large group of experts were so excited about the conclusions we came to at that time, but we didn't expect that it was really like what the teacher said, and we got away with it. ”
"Lao Li, we can be regarded as friends, what is this project you are talking about? ”
Li Sishi was silent again after hearing this, and it could be seen that he was very hesitant. The constipated look on his face made Xing Jie feel very unhappy.
"Do you remember the jade book you and your brother-in-law found in Kiber Quinlan?"
Hmm? Xing Jie was a little confused, how did he get to Kiber Quinlan? What is the connection with this?
Actually, part of the book has been deciphered, although not much, but there is a passage that says here. That word is very subtle, just a 'ruin', the ruin of ruins. The word appears three times, and its importance can be imagined.
And there is only one place in our southern Xinjiang region that can be related to the ruins, and that is the Kunlun Ruins. Although Karakorum is 108,000 miles away from Kunlun, it is indeed the most conspicuous target. ”
Xing Jie was dumbfounded when he heard it, that jade record just appeared three times in one word, and he dared to play so big?
What about the rigor?
It's to be good at association, that's right, but it's not an association anymore, it's called brain-opening!
Kunlun Ruins?
