In the Celestial Empire, one of the most mysterious departments is the "relevant departments", and many departments that are inconvenient to make public can be summed up by the word "related".

Xu Nianran followed Chen Youfei to "a certain research institute" for the first time, and when the car drove into the underground parking lot, he had to get out of the car for inspection, and his mobile phone had to be placed in a special safe before he was allowed to enter.

The door of this institute is open on the second floor, and the main office area is underground, because many antiquities need a specific environment to preserve.

It's not archaeology or history, it's a lot of things that science can't explain.

The wisdom and technology of the ancients far exceed the imagination of most people in modern times, and many of the crafts and techniques of thousands of years ago have died out with the progress of science and technology.

Last time, Pei Aishi's father, Mr. Pei Lao, told Chen Youfei that the egg-like object that looked like jade and non-jade, and the archaeologists and the gem identification center had no way to figure it out without destroying it, so it was sent here.

Chen and Fei have a state license, and they often go in and out of here, and they can enter by sweeping their eye masks at the door of the guardhouse.

Xu Nianran came here for the first time, although Chen Youfei could brush his face, he still tossed around, taking pictures and scanning documents, and recording fingerprints and eye masks.

Coming to the locker room, Chen Youfei + one + book + reading + novel xstxt found a small set of dust-free clothes for her to change into, and the two passed through the windswept passage to ensure that the body was clean before they officially entered the research institute.

"Brother Hefei, it's so troublesome every time you come in here?" Xu Nianran secretly pulled down a little mask and asked in a low voice.

"Well, that's the rule."

Xu Nianran nodded, didn't ask any more, stretched out his hand to grab Chen Youfei, and followed him through the passage, through the research rooms, and into a hemispherical observation room.

There were several staff members in this observation room, and when they saw Chen and Fei nodding and saying hello, Chen Youfei came to Mr. Pei's side and asked, "How did you come up with such a method?" ”

In the center of the observation room, there was an egg that looked like jade but not jade, and two cultivation lamps were shining on it.

"No way, since it looks like an egg, let's see if we can use the temperature to make it change." Mr. Pei was on the computer screen, observing the heat map of the eggs.

Chen Youfei nodded, pulled Xu Nianran aside, and asked in a low voice, "Ranran, do you have any impression of this thing?" ”

Xu Nianran lay on the glass cover, looking at the eggs not far away, if this was taken out of Ryan's basement, it must have something to do with her own country, she looked at it and felt a little familiar, but she couldn't say why.

"With Brother Fei, I can't say it, but this thing makes me feel very bad......" Xu Nianran frowned, when she saw this egg, in addition to the sense of familiarity, there was also an indescribable sense of disgust.

“…… It doesn't feel good, what's wrong? Chen asked with non-inducement.

Xu Nianran thought about it and said with a little hesitation: "This ...... It doesn't seem like a good thing......"

After she finished speaking, she straightened up and looked at Chen Youfei a little helplessly, "Or, you can take Xing Wensu to take a look, he knows more things than me." ”

Chen Youfei smiled and said, "Your subordinate has an unusual family background, and if you want to bring him in, you probably have to ask your superiors for instructions." ”

"Why? Can't I come in too, it's just a little more complicated. Xu Nianran asked strangely.

Chen Youfei waved his hand, signaling that he would talk about it later, he walked to Mr. Pei first, and relayed what Xu Nianran said, Mr. Pei shook his head after hearing it and said: "This thing has been jaded, generally speaking, the things that enter the mausoleum should be valuables, or the master's love during his lifetime, if it is a bad thing, it will not be brought into the mausoleum, right?" ”

Xu Nianran listened, and suddenly interjected: "How do you know that this thing came out of the mausoleum?" What if not? ”

Mr. Pei was stunned, turned his head to look at Chen Youfei, and asked, "Isn't this thing with those unearthed antiquities?" ”

Chen Youfei nodded, "It's together, we took it back together when we collected it, but I don't know if it was unearthed together, whether it was unearthed in the same mausoleum." ”

Mr. Pei pondered for a while, sighed and said, "To be honest, among these things, only this jade-like egg is the most mysterious, and it may be able to make some major discoveries...... Therefore, after consideration, the superiors said that if there was really no way to detect the shadow material in the middle, they could only cut it. ”

For an archaeologist, this kind of destruction of cultural relics is very heart-wrenching, but if there is no way, it can only be done here.

Xu Nianran frowned, turned his head and looked at the egg again, it was bigger than a pigeon egg, smaller than an egg, yellow, yellow and white, and the surface was not very flat, what was the use of such a thing? What do you do in the mausoleum?

Chen Youfei saw her frowning, raised his hand and rubbed her eyebrows, and said, "Don't frown, there will be wrinkles...... It doesn't matter if you can't remember, let's go see the others? ”

Xu Nianran smiled, "Hmm." ”

The two came to another research room, where some other antiquities were on display, Xu Nianran looked carefully through the protective cover, one by one, she pointed to an octagonal lacquer box and said: "This kind of lacquerware was very precious at that time...... I remember that only the caravan that came back from the Central Plains could bring back some of these things. ”

"Is this thing yours?" Chen Youfei looked at the lacquer box and asked, this thing looks a lot like a retro jewelry box.

Xu Nianran shook his head, "I don't remember, these were all palace supplies at that time." ”

Chen Youfei smiled, touched her head and said, "I didn't expect you to be a nobleman." ”

"Yes, yes, now it's a 'kneeling' clan." Xu Nianran grabbed Chen Youfei's forearm and dragged him outside.

These things are nothing to look at, even if they are really from their own country, they have to wait for archaeologists to come to a conclusion before they can help themselves, just looking at it like this, Xu Nianran felt a little sad.

Changed.

She suddenly missed Xing Wensu a little.

If Xing Wensu is also here, seeing these things, I don't know what explanation he will give?

"Brother Fei, what do you say about Xing Wensu's family? Why isn't it simple? The two took back their mobile phones, returned to the car, and Xu Nianran asked curiously.

"He...... His father, who had studied abroad and became a foreign citizen, has now applied for restoration of citizenship as an expert in some field...... Chinese nationality is the most difficult thing in the world to obtain, and foreigners who want to become Chinese nationality must be experts in a certain field or have made significant contributions to China, and once ordinary people give up, it is basically impossible to come back. Chen Youfei explained.

Xu Nianran didn't understand a little, she never cared about these current affairs and politics, she only cared about history.

"Is there anything special about that?" She asked, tilting her head.

"Yes, because he used to be a foreigner, although he now approves the restoration of Chinese nationality, but he must guard against whether he is a spy, and all things involving state secrets cannot be allowed to be approached...... His superiors probably won't allow him to enter this institute. ”

Chen Youfei paused and reminded: "So, then, don't be too heart-to-heart for him, red mouth and white teeth, anyone will tell lies, be careful." ”

Belch? Xu Nianran was stunned for a moment, Xing Wensu, as a person who followed his reincarnation, of course he wanted to share with him the things he recalled about his previous life, but Xing Wensu reminded himself not to believe too much in Chen Youfei.

And Chen Youfei, this woke up himself, let him follow, and let him be the closest person to him in the past eight years, and let him not believe in Xing Wensu too much.

So who should Lone believe?

Intellectually, Xing Wensu should be more credible, because he and Xu Nianran are sick and sympathetic, both carry the memories of their previous lives, they are looking for the Jade Fuling Kingdom, and they also want to help Xu Nianran lift the shackles on his soul...... Such a loyal subordinate, of course, will believe.

But emotionally, Chen Youfei is so good to her, although she used to discipline her strictly, but recently she has become more and more indulgent and loving, and she doesn't look like she is cheating herself.

I believe that these two people should not contradict each other, right?

Xu Nianran frowned, thinking about it, this expression made Chen Hefei frown frequently.

Ever since Qin Yan and Ryan appeared, Xu Nianran had often shown such a look, where did she frown and ponder so often before?

Chen Youfei thought that he had just said that Xing Wensu could not enter the research institute, which made Xu Nianran anxious and upset.

"Yes." He said, "If you really want to know about the egg, I'll show you a few pictures and show him, and if he has a clue, we'll arrange for him to see the real thing." ”

"Huh? Oh good. Xu Nianran nodded.

That piece of egg that looks like jade but not jade, Xu Nianran has always had a bad feeling, and this feeling will come to her mind just by seeing the picture.

She handed her mobile phone to Xing Wensu, where there were several photos sent to her by Chen Youfei, high-definition photos taken from various angles, and the yellow, yellow, white skin and shadows inside were clearly visible.

"I don't feel good about this thing, do you have any impressions?" Xu Nianran asked.

Xing Wensu leaned on the back of the bench, holding his mobile phone to flip through the pictures one by one, he looked at it very carefully, and each picture was enlarged to see every part in detail.

After flipping through the pictures and studying them several times, Xing Wensu shook his head and said, "To be honest, I don't have any special impression just by looking at the pictures...... You say you don't feel good about this thing, how do you feel when you see the real thing? ”

"How so...... I don't think it's some mascot and I don't feel close. Xu Nianran frowned, trying to recall how he felt when he saw these antiquities for the first time that day, "When I see other things, such as lacquerware, I will have a sense of familiarity, but there is only one kind of egg that looks like jade and not jade...... Disgusted. ”
