[Fourth Shift, Debt Repayment]

Tang Dou drove to the Mogao Grottoes Scenic Area, the scenic spot is still closed, and the security guards in front of the gate are still in the scenic spot to maintain order, but riot police with loaded guns can be seen everywhere inside the iron gate.

The news of the suspension of the opening of the Mogao Grottoes Scenic Area has not yet been announced, and many tourism companies have not yet gotten the news, and they are still sending tourists here.

At this time, at least a few hundred tourists gathered at the entrance of the scenic spot, and people speculated about what was going on in the scenic spot, but it seemed that the riot police in the scenic spot were more interested in them.

Tang Dou was unexpectedly stopped by the security guard of the scenic spot, Tang Dou took out the phone and dialed Geng Lao, and Geng Lao hurriedly trotted out of the scenic spot with little effort.

Geng Lao hung a temporary expert leading group identity badge around his neck, which was very conspicuous with Geng Lao's footsteps.

Geng Lao saw Tang Dou waving at him outside the gate, scolded the stinky boy, and handed Tang Dou the same expert leading group badge in his hand.

Tang Dou apologized, hung his identity card around his neck, bared his teeth at the security guard who stopped him, and walked into the Mogao Grottoes Scenic Area with Geng Lao in the envious eyes of everyone.

At this time, the security outside the cave was even tighter, and a cordon was set up in the distance, and at least twenty riot policemen stood in front of the cordon with their hands behind their backs, and even the Guhan Bridge was patrolled by riot police.

With the identity card, Tang Dou and Geng Lao came to the Tibetan Scripture Cave unimpeded, at this time there were more than 20 people gathered in the cave, most of them had the same identity card as Tang Dou on their chests, and a few middle-aged people who did not hang the identity card should be the relevant leaders of Dunhuang City at a glance, at this time they were talking around a short and fat old man, and they knew that this short and fat old man must be the highest among these officials.

The people in the cave should be discussing how to break the hole, and the focus of the dispute is how to protect the scriptures inside after the hole is opened, so as not to cause unnecessary losses.

Most of the people were a little surprised when they saw Geng Lao leading Tang Dou in, and some people couldn't help but suddenly see the expert badge hanging on Tang Dou's chest, it turned out that this young man was the expert that Geng Lao specially asked to add, but this expert was inevitably too young, and at first glance he looked like a student.

However, some people saw Tang Dou yesterday and knew that Tang Dou was Yang Yiyan's son-in-law and Zhou Fushi's apprentice, and they greeted Tang Dou warmly when they saw him come in.

Geng Lao directly led Tang Dou to the short and fat old man, and said with a smile: "Secretary Jiang, this colleague is the expert I mentioned to you, Tang Dou, the director of the Jinling Antique Association. ”

Tang Dou is only a bit official in this identity, and Geng Lao used this reason to win a place for him.

Secretary Jiang was originally a little unimpressed, but when he heard Tang Dou's name, he was a little surprised, and then his face was full of smiles, and he stretched out his hand at Tang Dou: "It turns out that you are Mr. Tang, I'm really embarrassed, it's because my supervision is not in place, those case-handling personnel didn't bother you this morning, right?" ”

Geng Lao was a little confused, he looked at Tang Dou and asked, "The case handlers this morning?" Boy, what's going on? ”

Tang Dou smiled and shook Secretary Jiang's hand with both hands, and said with a smile: "Thank you Secretary Jiang for your concern, it is the obligation of every citizen to assist the police in handling the case. ”

Secretary Jiang shook Tang Dou's hand enthusiastically, and said with a smile: "It's good that the misunderstanding is solved, I didn't expect you to know Geng Lao or old acquaintances, hehe, Mr. Tang, please take me to say hello to the secretary." ”

Clerk? This time it was Tang Dou's turn to be confused, who is this secretary sacred, and why is it related to him again? I don't even know him, how can I bring him well?

Secretary Jiang is the No. 1 leader of Dunhuang City, and he is an old fritter in the officialdom, and when he saw Tang Dou's expression, he knew that Tang Dou didn't know the secretary of the provincial party committee at all, and he was even more surprised.

Who can command the secretary of the provincial party committee? Could it be that this Mr. Tang turned out to be one of those eldest princes in the capital?

Secretary Jiang was even more enthusiastic, and his other hand also stretched out to shake Tang Dou's hands, and the eyes of several senior government officials accompanying him widened.

No one is a fool, they have now guessed that the young Mr. Tang in front of them must have admirable qualifications, and some of their brains have already thought of Secretary Jiang's anger this morning.

After finally greeting him, Secretary Jiang looked at Geng Lao and said with a smile: "Geng Lao, you are the most authoritative here, when do you think we will open this scripture cave?" ”

Geng Lao raised his wrist and looked at his watch, looked at Secretary Jiang and said, "It is estimated that the equipment transferred from Chang'an should be almost there, and we will open the treasure cave as soon as the equipment arrives." ”

As soon as Geng Lao's words fell, the roar of the engine of the transport helicopter was faintly heard outside the cave.

Geng Lao smiled and said, "It should be the equipment that has been delivered." ”

In the flat place outside the cave, a military Z-8 medium-sized transport helicopter slowly landed on the ground under the command of the ground personnel, and several staff members jumped down from the plane, and then the boxes were unloaded from the plane one by one.

With the assistance of the police, the equipment unloaded from the plane was quickly transferred to the cave, and Secretary Jiang signed for the equipment as the leader of the temporarily established expert leading group.

Although Secretary Jiang is not an expert, but as the main leader of Dunhuang City, it is still the duty to shoulder the position of the leader of the expert leading group, not only him, but also the mayor of Dunhuang City has the name of the deputy leader of the expert leading group.

Geng Lao, Song Lao and others checked the equipment transported, and Geng Lao nodded lightly at Secretary Jiang.

Secretary Jiang waved his palm excitedly and said impassionedly: "Comrades, now let's witness this history that has been hidden in the snow for a hundred years, I announce that the archaeological activities of the Mogao Caves in Dunhuang have officially begun." ”

There was warm applause in the cave, and Tang Dou looked left and right for some reason, and also chirped.

Is it to dig a hole and make it so grand? If I had dug this place decades ago, wouldn't you guys have to dig now?

Under the professional equipment, the small fist-like hole that was dug out by the pickaxe was quickly expanded, and when Cheng Dù, who could barely accommodate a person to drill into, Geng Lao waved his hand and ordered the excavation to be stopped.

Under the command of Geng Lao, the two staff members used a watering can to carry out a simple dusting, and some experts couldn't wait to put their heads in front of the cave entrance and look in, and then the exclamations had come and gone.

"Tibetan scriptures, a lot of Tibetan scriptures."

"I think the number of these scriptures is probably more than the ones that Wang Yuanqi sold to foreigners back then."

"Brother Qi, I think it's more appropriate for you to call Daoist Wang Yuanji."

"Yes, yes, it's Wang Yuanji, Wang Daochang, haha......"

Geng Lao frowned and walked to the entrance of the cave, blocked the entrance of the cave with his body, and said with a dark face to the experts who were vying to see it: "Everyone is a person in the industry, I won't say anything more, wait a minute, who dares to use a flashlight to shine in the cave again, don't blame me Lao Geng to the leading group to cancel his membership in the expert group." ”

'Uh', several experts who had just taken a flashlight to explore the cave put away the flashlight in their hands, everyone is an expert, and they know that the light will cause some damage to the cultural relics, but the damage is almost minimal, who knows that Geng Lao will take advantage of the problem.

Geng Lao snorted and stretched out his hand at Song Lao: "Old Song, give me a cold light." ”

Song Lao took out the cold light from the box, smiled at Geng Lao and said, "Geng Lao, I'm a few years younger than you, let's go and have a look first, after all, this is a cave, maybe there will be a poisonous snake or something that accidentally breaks into it and stores a nest inside." ”

Tang Dou also stood up with a smile: "Old Song is accusing me, if you say young, I'm afraid this is my youngest, the elders have something, and the younger ones will do their work, so I'll go and see it first." ”

People laughed kindly, Geng Lao also smiled, and scolded Tang Dou dotingly, but let go of the hole he was blocking.

Geng Lao's meaning is already very clear, and everyone naturally has no objections.

Tang Dou smiled slightly, took the cold light from Song Lao's hand, walked to the entrance of the cave, and poked the cold light in his hand into the hole.

Tang Dou also witnessed the scriptures in this cave for the first time, and at this moment, he saw the dense scriptures piled up on both sides of the cave wall, and he couldn't help but feel numb on his scalp.

Wang Yuanji, if you really have you, it's really hard for you to think of this trick in advance, I'm afraid it took a lot of your effort to hide these Tibetan scriptures here.

Seeing that there was no danger in the cave except for scriptures and some utensils, Tang Dou turned his head and nodded lightly at Geng Lao and Song Lao, ignoring the floating soil and gravel at the entrance of the cave, he directly picked it up with his hands and lay on the entrance of the cave, holding the cold light and slowly climbing into the cave.

The people outside the cave had already held their breath, and even the sound of their heartbeats seemed so clear at this moment.

Finally, Tang Dou completely climbed into the entrance of the cave, and Geng Lao squatted at the entrance of the cave and couldn't wait to ask, "Boy, what's the situation in the cave?" ”

Tang Dou held the cold light and slowly turned his body, suddenly, his eyes were fixed on the stack of scriptures closest to the entrance of the cave, he reached out and took down a brown paper envelope from the scroll, his hand couldn't help but tremble, he hurriedly squatted down, waved the envelope in his hand at Geng Lao, who was looking inward outside the cave, and said in a trembling voice: "Geng Lao, here is a letter, which was left by Wang Yuanqi Dao Chang himself." ”

"What? Wang Yuanji's handwritten letter? There was an uproar outside the cave, and so far, no one suspected that this cave in the cave was another more secret place for the ancients before Wang Yuanji. (To be continued.) )
