A few young people were stunned, put down the cups they had just raised, and listened quietly to the sudden upset call.

Wu Ming's mother adjusted her smile and answered the phone: "Hey! Director Qian! Hello hello hello! I was about to call you, hey...... Wu Ming, this kid, always causes you trouble......"

On the other end of the phone, Director Qian interrupted Wu Ming's mother's politeness: "Third aunt, listen to me, Wu Ming is out now, by the way, I have something to do with Wu Ming, you give him the phone ......"

Wu Ming's mother was taken aback, and said again and again: "Okay, good ......" and then handed the phone to Wu Ming, who was sitting on pins and needles at this time, Wu Ming took the phone: "Hey! Director Qian, the black bull was caught? ”

Director Qian: "Not yet, how can it be so fast, it's like this, I want to ask you to paint a portrait of my wife!" Do you see when you have time? ”

Wu Ming sighed: "No problem! I'll be over as soon as I'm done! ”

Wu Ming, who hung up the phone, looked at his mother with a little pride: "Can you eat?" ”

Wu Ming's mother said: "Didn't you steal the police uniform on your body?" ”

Wu Ming couldn't help shouting out in his heart, took off his police uniform and handed it to Tang Qi: "You wear this, I'll go into the house and change my clothes!" Tang Qi handed the coat on his body to Wu Ming: "Well, you hurry up and wear it, I don't know if it's appropriate?" ”

Wu Ming went into the house to change the clothes Tang Qi bought for him, Tang Qi cleared his throat: "Auntie, this police uniform was borrowed from our friend Officer Hou, don't get me wrong, his clothes are ......", in order not to let Wu Ming's mother think nonsense, Tang Qi immediately panicked and said: "His clothes were torn when he caught the thief!" I haven't had time to change the clothes I just bought! Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Wang Dalei looking at him in surprise, so he turned his head and said to Lei Zi: "Isn't it!" Leizi? ”

Lei Zi sighed twice and said, "Auntie, Wu Ming is righteous and brave this time!" ”

Wu Ming's mother seemed to have finally put her mind at ease, but she shed two tears with a little excitement: "This child really didn't let me worry less, when I heard someone in the village say the word Wu Ming, my heart was pounding and pounding, now it's good, the child is older, and there is a future!" ”

Ning Er was on the side, a little unhappy, pouted, and said, "Mom...... What do you say! Which time was someone else bullying Brother Wu Ming first?! ”

Wu Ming changed into the Puma sportswear that Tang Qi bought for him at this time and walked out, and said, "Mom, doesn't it look much more pleasing to the eye now?" ”

At this moment, Wu Ming was wearing a black slim and far-moving suit, looking extremely young and vigorous. Several people felt that their eyes lit up, Tang Qi stepped forward and circled around Wu Ming, and said, "The size is quite suitable!" Lei Zi couldn't help laughing, pinched his nose and said, "That's!" Don't you see who bought it! Tang Qi glared at Lei Zi, didn't make a sound, and sat back.

Ning Er took her mother's hand and said happily: "Mom, don't you see Brother Wu Ming is very handsome in this outfit!" Wu Ming's mother nodded, her eyes looked at Tang Qi, Tang Qi lowered her head a little shyly, for some reason, Wu Ming's mother's eyes suddenly dimmed when she turned back to Ning Er's happy and longing smile, and sighed imperceptibly, and then seemed to be afraid of gaffes, and hurriedly said, "Everyone hurry up and eat!" Hurry up, move your chopsticks! ”

Wu Ming seemed to ask deliberately, "What about me?" ”

Wu Ming's mother glanced at her and said, "Who will support me if you starve to death!" ”

……

Let's say that as soon as Tang Fanghua and the others entered the ancient tomb, they looked at the ancient human corpses and many clay pots and pots everywhere, but they were more excited than shocked.

After all, the archaeological discoveries of ancient humans in this area of Shaanxi are nothing new, as far as prehistoric civilization is concerned, there are the world-famous ancient human fossils of Lantian Man in the Paleolithic Age 800,000 years ago, and an important representative of the transition period from ape man to ancient people in the Paleolithic Age of China 200,000 years ago - Dali Man ancient human fossils, and one of the representatives of the Neolithic Age of Chinese and foreign civilizations, the Banpo site in the eastern suburbs of Xi'an. The ruins of Jiangzhai in Lintong more than 4,000 years ago and the Beishouling ruins found in Baoji, Shaanxi Province more than 3,000 to 5,000 years ago.

Zhang Bo's voice begging for advice said: "Shouldn't it be the same as the Lantian people found in Gongwangling in Lantian County or Chenjiawozi in Lantian County!" ”

Qi Hong smiled when he heard this: "You, if you are in Lantian and say that you are from Lantian Ridge, you don't look at the skull features of these bones, you should know that these people have evolved to the same as our modern people in terms of physical characteristics, and what Gongwangling found is the ancient human fossil of Lantian Man, or an ape-man, or an ape-man walking upright." ”

Zhang Bo looked stunned and said, "Sister Hong, don't laugh at me, you know that I am a halfway monk!" ”

Wang Ge looked down at the corpses under his feet, and at the same time hugged Zhang Bo, and said, "Qi Hong, Zhang Bo can contact the Dao Lantian ape-man, it means that he has done his homework, come!" Zhang Bo, come over and take a look at the structure of this skull. Zhang Bo hurriedly rushed over, and Wang Gebian, who is a paleoanthropologist, began to give Zhang Bo a popular science: "The skull of Lantian people has many obvious primitive characteristics, the eyebrow ridge is large and thick, almost forming a straight transverse ridge above the eye socket, the frontal bone is low and flat, and the skull bone wall is extremely thick......

Qi Hong didn't respond when she heard it, thinking that she was in the car today, and the police asked her if she knew who called the police to report that Tang Qi and Wu Ming met in Revolution Park at two o'clock yesterday afternoon, and she naturally didn't know, but she thought that at that time last year, the only person who could know Tang Qi's movements was Zhang Bo alone, but Zhang Bo insisted that it was not him, which made the police doubt themselves a little, and how much they had some opinions about Zhang Bo.

Thinking about it, Qi Hong picked up a pottery piece and said, "Teacher Tang, if you look at this color and shape, I'm afraid it should be the ancient pottery of Yangshao culture in the Neolithic Age." ”

Tang Fanghua was also concentrating on a small-mouthed pointed-bottom clay pot at the moment, and when he heard Qi Hong's words, he nodded, and said: "It shouldn't be wrong, the characteristics of Yangshao cultural pottery are all handmade, mainly sand-filled red pottery and clay red pottery, common utensils include clay red pottery open mouth shallow belly flat bottom or round bottom bowls and basins, muddy or fine sand small-mouth pointed bottom bottles, sandy red-brown pottery large-mouthed deep-bellied small bottom urns, jars, etc. But ......"

Speaking of this, Tang Fanghua, who seemed to be talking about the characteristics of the ancient pottery of Yangshao culture, suddenly stopped, looked at the clay pot in his hand carefully, and said: "But why don't these pottery have the patterns and painted decorations that they should have?" ”

When Qi Hong heard Tang Fanghua say this, he found that the clay pot in his hand was also without a pattern, and he looked at seven or eight clay pots in a row, and said strangely: "That's right! Why is there no typical pattern of Yangshao culture? It is said that most of the thousands of ancient pottery from the Yangshao culture period found in the country are painted and decorated? ”

At this time, Zhang Bo, who was listening to Wang Ge's explanation, didn't know whether he didn't listen to Wang Ge's knowledge of ancient humans or was more interested in this ancient pottery, and said excitedly: "Mr. Tang, I know a little about this, painted ornaments are mostly seen in the upper part of the outer wall of pottery pots, pots, and bowls, forming a pattern belt, and it is rare to paint the inner wall and paint the whole body.

Qi Hong seemed to feel that Zhang Bo was a little silent and half a bottle was clattering, and said, "Yes!" Moreover, the painted pottery pattern is simple and simple, mainly red ground ink color, there are more animal images, there are frogs, deer, fish, sheep, etc., and the geometric patterns composed of straight lines, curves, broken lines, dots and solitary triangles are also more common. But everyone knows this, can you say something useful! ”

When the words fell, Qi Hong found that Tang Fanghua, Wang Ge and Zhao Laoju were looking at her in surprise, only to realize that there was something wrong with her words, so she lowered her head to look at the ancient pottery.

Zhang Bo seemed to be aggrieved and said: "I want to say that the Provincial History Museum in the human face fish pattern painted pottery pot, animal face pattern thin neck painted pottery pot, double fish pattern pointed bottom pottery pot and so on do have patterns, but I see that there are no patterns in the Provincial History Museum, such as small mouth pointed bottom pottery bottles, pottery sculpture heads, boat-shaped pottery pots, three-legged pottery bowls, three-legged pottery pots, etc. ”

Although Tang Fanghua did not agree with Zhang Bo's view, he couldn't refute it and didn't want to refute it, so he said: "Zhang Bo, that's right, there is no absolute in everything, do it well, come on!" ”

Zhang Bo excitedly slapped chicken blood and said a Japanese-style "Hi"!

Seeing this, several people frowned and shook their heads. Qi Hong suddenly said, "Zhang Bo, do you know what Qiqi would say if she saw you like this here?" ”

Zhang Bo didn't seem to hear what Qi Hong meant, and asked, "What will Qiqi say?" ”

Qi Hong couldn't help laughing, pretending to be Tang Qi, and said, "You stay away from me!" lest I spit on you! Seeing that Zhang Bo's face was flushed with embarrassment, he seemed to feel that he was a little excessive, and said with a smile: "Just kidding, but I also want everyone to have fun, do you know how people outside crowd out us archaeologists?" ”

Wang Ge raised his eyebrows and asked, "I really don't know, how do you say it?" ”

Qi Hong said slowly: "Look at your archaeological face!" ”

Zhao Lao is an expert in ancient characters, and at this time, he can't help but be attracted by the words of these young people: "Eh, how do you say this? ”

Qi Hong said: "Bad luck! ”

When Tang Fanghua heard this, he remembered his daughter's extreme opposition to his work, and couldn't help but sigh: "Also, let's deal with these ancient corpses all day long, digging people's ancestral graves, digging people's ancient tombs, and turning all of our faces into ancient corpses!" ”

Everyone laughed, but Qi Hong said urgently: "Come and see, what is this?" ”

After Tang Fanghua took a closer look, he exclaimed: "Fingerprints? ”

Zhang Bo: "The texture is still so clear? ”

Zhao Lao groaned: "This Yangshao culture is between 5,000 BC and 3,000 BC, could it be that this fingerprint was left by an ancient person in the Neolithic Age between 5,000 and 3,000 BC?" ”

Zhang Bo said: "Could it be that who stayed during the period of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors?" ”

Tang Fanghua was excited and confused: "But why haven't any previous archaeological discoveries found fingerprints?" Why did this ancient man leave his fingerprints on this ancient pottery? What kind of message does he want to pass on to future generations......

Before Tang Fanghua's question was finished, he heard Qi Hong, who had checked several clay pots in a row, say: "You see, there are fingerprints on each clay pot, although it is very shallow, but the texture of the fingerprints is very clear!" While looking through the clay pots, he kept saying, "Here's ...... There are also ...... here Look, that, and that ......"

Everyone was surprised and delighted, one by one hurriedly sorted out each clay pot with fingerprints, gathered together, there were as many as sixteen, everyone you look at me and I look at you, as if you have discovered a new continent, Tang Fanghua looked at this one by one puzzled fingerprints, and suddenly said: "Have you found it, this fingerprint is the fingerprint of the same person and the same finger?" ”

Wang Gehaha said with a smile: "It seems that this time we did not come in vain, the discovery of this ancient pottery fingerprint is enough to shock the archaeological community!" ”

At this time, Zhang Lao's voice came: "Don't be too happy too early!" How can you conclude that this is the fingerprints of the ancients and not of the present?! ”

It turned out that Zhang Lao and Wu Ming returned to the ancient tomb site after talking, not just from the ground down to the tomb, that is, I heard Tang Fanghua and others talking about fingerprints, out of the strange things of the previous archaeological discoveries of the ancient tomb, Zhang Lao felt that it was necessary to change the traditional passive or somewhat conservative and narrow archaeological thinking to look at archaeological discoveries, which is why he said this.

When everyone heard this, they were puzzled, and Zhang Bo was the first to ask: "Grandpa, you once said that archaeology is a rigorous science, and it must be carried out honestly and well-founded, how can you guess at will?" Could it be that people from today have been here before we entered the tomb? And what special function can you easily press fingerprints on this 5,000-year-old ancient pottery in an instant? ”

Zhao Lao also followed Zhang Bo's words and said: "Yes, Zhang Lao, you can't mess with the rules, besides, I just saw this ancient tomb, and there is no trace of it being stolen at all!" ”

Tang Fanghua also nodded on the side: "Elder Zhang, the student guesses that you must have your basis, right!" ”

Unexpectedly, several people didn't expect it, and Zhang Lao immediately gave two words neatly: "No!" ”

Seeing that everyone was unacceptable, Elder Zhang said, "Have you forgotten what I said in the meeting last night?" For some archaeological discoveries that are indeed incredible, strange and bizarre, we must make bold guesses, without bold conjectures, there will be no today's scientific civilization, and similarly, without bold conjectures, we will always be led by some documents in archaeology! ”

Although everyone knows that what Zhang Lao said is so reasonable, how can the ideological reversal be completed overnight?

Zhang Lao laughed at himself and said, "Isn't it true that no one has ever entered the ancient tomb before?" ”

Everyone was stunned, and Tang Fanghua was puzzled: "If you want to say that there is, that is, Wu Ming, but" spread his hands: "How is this possible?" ”

Qi Hong said: "Yes, this is impossible at all, everything must not be imagined!" ”

Zhang Lao was noncommittal and said, "It's always okay to make bold assumptions and carefully verify them!" ”

Qi Hong interface: "But bold assumptions also need a premise and an opportunity, right?" Fu said again: "Elder Zhang, I'm sorry, I may be a little excited!" ”

Zhang Lao smiled: "If Wu Ming doesn't have a special function, how can the painting of Zhang Chuanguo's jade seal be explained?" ”
