Chapter 9: The Human Eye in the Tomb
Curator Li estimated the time, and felt that the hydrochloric acid had almost corroded the rammed earth layer, so he stood up and patted his ass and said, "Let's go, it's almost okay." ”
Everyone got up, picked up the tools around them and followed Director Li to the rammed earth layer, Director Li gave a simple order, and everyone began to work in full swing. Director Li and Professor Qian did not dig the rammed earth layer with everyone, but pulled up the family routine on the side.
The two of them chatted happily at a glance, chatting and chatting, and Director Li talked about what happened on the construction site recently. Professor Qian scoffed after hearing this, "Stupid! If there really is an evil ghost or something, how can there be so many people in this world who do bad things! What's more, I've dug a lot of ancient tombs, how can I encounter them once! Superstition! Ignorance! ”
Director Li nodded when he heard it, few people in archaeology would believe this kind of rumor, otherwise they wouldn't do it. Director Li echoed Professor Qian and said, "That's it! When I heard this, I was so angry that I scolded those people on the spot, and told them that if they were spreading rumors, I would dismiss them! Really, all the archaeologists who dig up the ancient tombs are fine, but those of them who are doing the work in the corners are sick? ”
"That's the right thing to do, old classmate! We should wake up these people, lest they have nothing to do to spread rumors and affect the development of the work. Professor Qian patted Director Li on the shoulder and said.
"Listening to your voice, something happened too?" Director Li looked at Professor Qian's indignant face and asked curiously.
"It's not Lao Zhao yet, it's okay to send his two relatives who said they like archaeology, and follow us to the site." Professor Qian said hatefully, "You say, this archaeological site is such a strict place, why did he send the two hairy children so rashly!" ”
"Huh? Where? How I didn't see it. Director Li looked around for a while, didn't see the hairy child type person he was talking about, and asked Professor Qian.
"One didn't come, and I was not feeling well and resting in the hotel. Another...... Hey, what about people? Professor Qian searched around but couldn't find it, and said dissatisfiedly, "This person is really, didn't he tell him to listen to my command when he came to the scene, and he couldn't run around!" Xiao He!! Professor Qian shouted to a young man at the scene with a blank face.
"Professor Qian, what's wrong?" Xiao He was originally helping to dig the soil of the rammed earth layer, and when he heard Professor Qian calling him, he hurriedly ran over.
"What about that young man named Han?" Professor Qian asked Xiao He with an unhappy face. Xiao He looked left and right, but didn't find Han Leng's figure, and looked at Professor Qian embarrassedly,
"I ...... I don't know. Xiao He lowered his head slightly, not daring to look up at Professor Qian's face. In my heart, I regretted it, why did I take such a job! "When I got out of the car before, I saw him there."
Professor Qian's nose was snorting, people came here with the team he led, whether it was an accident at the scene or someone had an accident, he was responsible, his heart was angry, and he said to Xiao He, "Go find someone, look around." Find someone for me! ”
"Okay." Xiao He was about to run to find someone. A middle-aged man stood up and happily waved to Director Li and Professor Qian.
"Director Li, Professor Qian, the tomb has been dug up. We can prepare and go to the grave! The middle-aged man in Director Li's team walked over excitedly and said excitedly to Director Li and Professor Qian.
As soon as Professor Qian heard that he could go down to the tomb, he immediately put Han Leng's matter behind him, "Xiao He, go and get my tools!" Prepare for the opening room! ”
"Good!" At this time, Xiao He ran to the car and came over with a large bag of things.
Han Leng wandered around the mountains and forests for a while, and received a call from Eleven, "Hey." Eleven? Are you coming over now? Okay, I got it, I'll see you later! After speaking, he put the phone back in his pocket, and walked down the mountain step by step.
Eleven packed himself, glanced at the clothes on the bed, pushed his glasses, and pushed the door downstairs. Downstairs, there was a car that Xiao He had hired for her in advance, and the driver was an honest middle-aged man, who saw Eleven sitting up, and asked with a smile, "Where is the little girl?" ”
"Yuxi Ancient Tomb." Eleven said lightly.
The fact that Yuxi excavated the ancient tomb is a major event in Fengxian City now, and as a native of Fengxian City, there are few people who don't know. The driver smiled and started the car, driving towards the cemetery with Eleven. When Eleven arrived at the cemetery, the crowd was directing the workers to open the door to the burial chamber.
The door of the tomb is more than three meters high, and there are two magnificent giant swords engraved on it, and below the giant sword is a row of bows and arrows. Director Li is also the commander of Lehehe, an archaeologist taking pictures of the gate.
Eleven slowly walked into the tomb, and he didn't know where Han Leng came from, and when he saw Eleven enter the tomb, he also followed, "Eleven." Are you feeling better? ”
"Hmm." Eleven nodded slightly. More than ten meters long tomb road, Eleven and Han Leng quickly walked to the tomb door. Professor Qian and Director Li excitedly instructed a few workers to open the door of the tomb, not noticing the arrival of Eleven and Han Leng at all.
Han Leng and Eleven both went to the tomb for the first time, and they looked left and looked excitedly, but unfortunately, they hadn't officially entered the tomb yet, so there was nothing to see outside except for the boulder door.
"Attention! I say one, two, three, let's work together! Director Li shouted to everyone, "Ready! One-two-three! ”
With a 'boom', the huge tomb door was pushed open by the crowd with tools from the outside, and Eleven felt a breeze blowing from the inside. A fishy smell came to my face.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem! Go to a person, bring a gas mask. Curator Li shouted to everyone while squatting on the ground and coughing.
A figure quickly passed by Eleven and Han Leng, and after a while, he came down with a gas mask, still holding a bulging bag in his hand, and first gave the gas masks to Director Li and Professor Qian, and then handed them out to everyone in turn. When it was sent to Eleven and Han Leng, the man was obviously stunned, "You are also archaeologists?" "Han Leng and Eleven are too young, and that person can't believe that they are here to participate in this archaeological work.
"They aren't, don't send it to them." As soon as the masked man's words came out, he immediately attracted Professor Qian's attention, and seeing that it was the two of them, he couldn't help but determine their identities.
Han Leng and Eleven shook their heads indifferently, indicating that they didn't need it. Anyway, they can wait for the air to circulate for a while before going in. Besides, they didn't really come to archaeology.
11. Han Leng returned to the ground with four or five workers. The archaeologists carefully put on their gas masks before entering the tomb in turn.
"Eleven, do you want to take a look around?" Han Leng looked at Eleven and asked.
Eleven shook her head, "I need to go down to the burial chamber." ”
"Then let's wait a minute. Wait for the air quality inside to get a little better before we go down. Han Leng pulled Eleven to find a clean place to do it.
"Okay." As Eleven was talking, he saw archaeologists coming out of the tomb, holding a large number of burial goods in their hands.
After Zhang Dazhu walked out of the tomb, he had been sitting on the side and looking at the tomb, and just saw the door of the tomb, the magnificent momentum, and suddenly Zhang Dazhu's heart was a little sour. Sure enough, it is a cemetery for a big official, and there must be a lot of things to accompany the funeral and they are valuable. It's a pity, I really should have taken a few more pieces last time!
Just thinking about it, the archaeological staff began to carry the burial goods from the tomb, and the exquisite jade pieces and gold silk looked at Zhang Dazhu dumbfounded.
Eleven watched the archaeologists continue to take out exquisite burial goods from the tomb, first jade, clear green, transparent white, bewitching red, it is really colorful, the shape is also different, there are gold buckles jade cups, eight-petal flower-shaped cups, agate antelope first cups, etc., and there are some jade carved animal images, it is really dazzling, dizzying. The sharp-eyed Eleven also carefully discovered that there were hairpins, hairpins, step shakes and combs and other things in the jade unearthed later. Although Eleven doesn't know about archaeology, the tomb door I saw just now is engraved with a sword, which at least means that the owner of the tomb is a martial artist, but there are women's daily necessities in the burial goods, is it a joint burial of husband and wife? Eleven wondered. Generally speaking, ghosts rarely appear in tombs where husbands and wives are buried together. Because most of these people have no regrets and no grievances, as long as they are not buried in the land of extreme yin, there will be no problems.
Unearthed at the back are silk brocade and gold and silver jewelry. Eleven looked at those beautiful jewelry, and his heart was more sure of his conjecture.
On the other side, Zhang Dazhu saw the gold and silver jewelry behind him, and he was full of regret in his heart, the value of each piece of jewelry was enough for their family to eat for two or three months. I didn't expect to be missed by myself like this. Zhang Dazhu watched the archaeologists walk in front of him with jewelry in his eyes, and he couldn't help but have a trace of greed in his heart, maybe he could fish in troubled waters and catch a few more pieces of gold and silver jewelry. Once the idea arises, it takes root in Zhang Dazhu's mind and can no longer linger.
Eleven and Han Leng silently watched the archaeologists run up again and again, and then go down, feeling almost the same. The two of them got up again and walked towards the burial chamber.
Zhang Dazhu, who was sitting on the other side, saw two people walking towards the tomb, and as soon as his thoughts changed, he immediately got up and followed not far away.
It's a little dark in the tomb, after all, it's only the first day to go down to the tomb, and a lot of things haven't been moved yet. When the tomb is newly opened, archaeologists usually first carry out the burial goods that can be carried out, and then pull them to the museum, where they should be preserved and restored, and then used by researchers to study history. The second important thing is the coffin of the tomb owner, which is generally cleaned together with the cleaning of the burial goods, but this also depends on the specifications of the tomb and the storage of the coffin. After these two things are done, carefully clean up the funeral goods that have been damaged or difficult to take out. Even if such funerary goods are oxidized, it is not a particularly pity.
When Eleven and Han Leng came down, they saw Professor Qian leading everyone to carefully pack those pottery figurines and silk brocade that were easy to oxidize, "Xiao Zhang, these terracotta figurines must be careful, remember to handle them gently, don't break them, you see, how beautiful this color is!" You can't let such a beautiful figurine lose its brilliance. ”
"I see, Professor Chin." The staff member named Xiao Zhang carefully took the terracotta figurines and silk brocade in Professor Qian's hand, and immediately turned around and walked outside. When passing by Eleven and Han Leng, he glanced at the two of them curiously.
Eleven didn't speak, but walked along the tomb, stopping from time to time, touching the walls of the tomb for a while, and then starting to walk again.
Zhang Dazhu followed Eleven and them into the tomb, and was immediately dumbfounded when he saw the burial goods in the room, which was completely different from the tomb he and Brother Hu went down to, there were a few coffins parked in that tomb, and there were some funeral goods around, but it was far less than in this tomb, and I couldn't help but shout in my heart, I lost a lot last time! Just thinking about it, he suddenly saw someone walking towards him, and he panicked for a moment and hid in a tomb next to him.
Eleven walked for a while, and finally stopped walking. Han Leng hurriedly ran up, Eleven slapped his hands, and said lightly, "This is not the tomb of the tomb owner. ”
"Of course this is not the main tomb!" When Professor Qian heard Eleven's words, he immediately said, "This is just the ear chamber for the burial. See, over there, over there. There are also ear chambers that are used for funeral goods. Looking at these burial goods, it is preliminarily estimated that there is a first-class general buried in this tomb, and it is estimated that her wife is also there. Professor Qian rarely spoke kindly to Han Leng and Eleven, but it was not ruled out that the topic they were talking about happened to be Professor Qian's favorite archaeology.
"The entrances over there are ear chambers, and this entrance here is the main tomb." Eleven turned his head to look at the entrance to the tomb on the side and whispered. Except for Han Leng beside him, no one else heard this. After Professor Qian finished speaking, he lowered his head and sorted out the funeral goods on the ground.
In order to avoid the staff, Zhang Dazhu hid in a tomb indiscriminately, but after entering, it was dark, and a fishy smell directly made his head faint. After a long while, Zhang Dazhu put down his hands holding his head and looked around with wide eyes.
This burial chamber was larger than the two burial chambers he had ever seen, fifty or sixty square meters. Like the first burial chamber he entered, the black coffin stopped in the center, except that there was only one coffin, about the same size as the coffin in that burial chamber, except that this coffin was more black. Although the light was insufficient, Zhang Dazhu could still see that the funeral goods that were valuable and convenient to take away were all in the innermost. He quietly slowed his steps, trying not to make a sound, so that the people in the burial chamber next to him could hear the sound at his feet. Zhang Dazhu's heart was beating non-stop, and he didn't know whether he was scared or nervous, fine sweat began to ooze from his forehead, and he was about to reach the place where the funeral goods were placed. Zhang Dazhu's heartbeat was uncontrollably fast, he slowly turned his head to look, and couldn't help shouting, "Ghost! ”
Eleven looked at the entrance of the tomb, and was about to enter, when he suddenly heard a scream from the tomb. Without saying a word, he rushed into the tomb. Professor Qian hurriedly put down the things in his hand and ran in behind Eleven with a few archaeologists.
When everyone ran in, Zhang Dazhu was slumped on the ground, not daring to move. When everyone came up to him and asked him what was going on, he just pointed to the coffin in the center of the tomb and said in horror, "He, he's looking at me." ”
Everyone was puzzled, someone took out a hand flashlight and looked at his fingers, everyone only felt that their hearts were beating, a small crack in the black coffin, and a black eye looked at them through the small crack in the coffin. The shriveled eyes seemed to glow with a ghostly light under the light of the flashlight, and even experienced archaeologists like Director Li and Professor Qian were numb by this eye. Could it be that there are really ghosts in this world?
