Chapter 15 deals with arrivals

One night, because I dreamed of Xiaofang, I slept very poorly, I slept until noon, the plane was four o'clock in the afternoon, I got up and quickly cleaned up, and went out. The Ministry of Security arranged for us to be an ordinary military plane, starting from a military training ground on the outskirts of the city, not far from Shanghai to Shandong, we got off the plane and changed to a long-distance bus, the things in the middle will not be repeated, the road is very safe, at eight o'clock in the evening, we finally arrived at Chengxin Village.
Chengxin Village is much better than I imagined, not far from the county seat, the village is not dilapidated, there is a pharmacy in the village, a small supermarket, and the village secretary's family also runs a mountain villa with a farmhouse. We were arranged to rest at the lodge at this farmhouse, it was not the tourist season, so there were not many guests.
The village secretary introduced to us that because the land in the village is not enough, many young and middle-aged people are working outside, considering the income of the village, the village decided to develop a tourism project, and this villa was just built last year.
The village secretary is very honest, in his fifties, a typical image of a Shandong man, and he is also very bold and enthusiastic. After arranging the accommodation and preparing dinner for us, I finished dinner, took a hot shower, and went to sleep.
At seven o'clock the next morning, Yun Ximing came to knock on my door and told me to gather at nine o'clock, and the village secretary took us to the scene. This time, Vice Minister Zhou did not come, he said that he had already made arrangements, there were people on the site to answer, and the logistics personnel of the previous scientific expedition team had not been evacuated, and they were still doing some basic excavation and maintenance work at the site.
I changed into a sturdy mountaineering suit, put on my small fanny pack, and pinned my dagger to my waist, and made sure that I was ready, and I went downstairs to the compound to meet the others.
The village secretary was already waiting there, and Uncle Lu and Yun Ximing were also ready to stop, but I didn't find Dazhe's figure.
"What about Lu Yuzhe?" I asked Yun Ximing that their rooms were next to each other.
Yun Ximing shook his shoulder, "He encountered a little trouble. ”
Before Yun Ximing could finish speaking, we saw Dazhe walking out of the building, complaining loudly as he walked, saying that the belt equipped with his clothes was not long enough. I couldn't laugh or cry, so I walked over and gave him a slap before he quieted down.
"Comrade Dazhe, I solemnly inform you that you are late, and it is time for you to lose weight." I looked him up and down.
"Cut, my mom said it, I'm still growing my body."
I feel like everyone is going to hold back their internal injuries, and my heart says, grow a body?! Are you a rescuer sent by the monkeys?!
The archaeological site is still some distance away from the villa where we live, and when we go around to the back of the village, we can see a large open land about two or three hundred meters away, with a large area, about nearly 1,000 square meters, and from a distance, there are a lot of military tents set up there.
"The leaders who came before said that every second counts for this archaeology, so they didn't want to live in our guest house, so they lived here." The village secretary explained to us.
When we came to the tent camp, we saw that there were many armed police officers and soldiers guarding around us, and when they saw us coming, the soldiers in charge of the guards immediately went in to report, and after a while, a leader was surrounded by several people and came out.

As soon as Uncle Lu saw this leader, he immediately greeted him, and the leader looked nearly sixty years old, with a somewhat bloated figure, about one meter seven tall, a little bald, and looked old. When he saw Uncle Lu, he also greeted him with a smile.
"Lao Lu, you are finally here, hard work, hard work."
"It's not hard, it's not hard, let me introduce you, this is the head of our expert advisory group this time, Comrade Kui Yinyin." Uncle Lu said as he pulled us over one by one and introduced us to the leader. "Head Kui, this is the Minister of our Ministry of Security, Comrade Yu Jin."
I stepped forward and shook the hand of Minister Yu, "Hello Minister Yu. ”
I observe this minister, and I have been in contact with Vice Minister Zhou for a long time, I actually still have a certain curiosity about the minister, I think even if it is not a dragon and phoenix among people, but the minister of the Ministry of State Security is also an outstanding talent, but this one in front of me is the same as the old man next door, not only that, I feel that Minister Yu Jin's face always seems to be shrouded in a layer of gray sickness. I was still muttering to myself when someone came up to shake my hand.
"Captain Kui, hello, I am the administrator of the Shandong Provincial Scientific Expedition Team, and my name is Shi Yan." A gray-haired and energetic old man came up to shake my hand, and this old man looked very kind-eyed and kind-looking.
"Professor Shi used to be a member of our scientific expedition team, but now he is old, so he has taken a back seat and is mainly responsible for the daily logistics of our scientific expedition team." Minister Yu Jin introduced to me, "The sacrificed Captain Chen and Comrade Xiao Fang are both students of our Professor Shi. ”
When I thought of Captain Chen and Xiao Fang, I still felt sad in my heart. "Professor Shi, about Captain Chen and Comrade Xiao Fang, please pay your respects."
"Comrade Xiao Kui, blame me, blame me, they are still young, I shouldn't have let them go into the field to explore by themselves......" Professor Shi said with red eyes.
"Don't be upset, Professor." A young girl walked behind Professor Shi and sat down on a folding chair on the side. This girl is very fair-looking, wearing a simple scientific expedition uniform, with the same long black hair as me, combed into a ponytail, and wearing a pair of glasses like the bottom of a thick wine bottle. She was very young, in her early twenties, and the more I looked closer, the more familiar I felt about her. Finally I saw the clue.
She looks like me!
If it weren't for her glasses and contact lenses, I would have thought I was looking in the mirror. Yun Ximing and Dazhe around him were also a little surprised, and they winked at me.
"Professor Shi, who is this?" I asked Professor Shi beside me.
"Oh, this is Xiao Jiang, and he is also my student, but Xiao Jiang's eyes are not very convenient, his eyesight is particularly bad, and he is even more strict at night, so he can only help me do some sorting work of scientific research literature in the scientific expedition team."
"Hello, my name is Jiang Bingbing." Xiao Jiang stretched out his hand to greet me, but he almost tripped over the stone on the sole of his foot, but fortunately, Yun Ximing's eyes were quick and he helped her to prevent him from falling. "Thank you, thank you, my eyesight is really a big problem."
"Comrade Jiang and Yin Yin really look a little alike, I don't know if I thought they were long-lost sisters." Dazhe was unobtrusive on the side.
"Haha, it's a little bit like, it's a little bit like." Professor Shi also sighed on the side.
"Maybe it's more fateful. Professor Shi, let's talk about the situation at the scene. I quickly diverted the topic, because I found that Xiao Jiang, who was helped up by Yun Ximing, was already blushing like an apple.
"Yes, yes, it's important, it's important. Come with me. Professor Shi said as he led me to the largest tent in the camp.
