Chapter 15: In and Out of the Play (6)
The young man talked for a long time, not only made up the ticket, but also paid the fine, and it was easy not to get on the credit report, and he could be regarded as escaping. Coincidentally, I didn't write a book, and my ticket was bought near the drive, and the ticket he made up for happened to be next to me.
When he got into the car and saw that it was me in the next seat, he hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, brother, I have no choice but to cause you trouble." ”
I saw that he was talking and didn't look like a scoundrel, so I asked curiously: "It's okay, I just don't know where you're in such a hurry?" ”
He waved at me the ticket he had just made up, and it turned out that he was going to the same city as me. He put down his salute, turned his head and said to me, "I'm not afraid of your jokes, I just made a world-class discovery, and I have to hurry back to the unit." He spoke eagerly, as if eager to tell me the ins and outs.
If it weren't for the fact that I had seen the so-called civil science from Professor Yu that day, I would probably have been frightened by this sentence again. At this time, I politely and calmly said, "Oh? What was found? ”
He didn't answer immediately, but rummaged through the brown briefcase and finally pulled out a photo: "This is it." ”
I squinted my eyes and took a closer look at the somewhat blurry photograph and saw that it appeared to be a bronze doll with a symbol on it. The symbol looks a bit designed, with a box embedded in a box with an eye-like pattern in the middle.
"Is there anything special about this symbol?" I was puzzled.
The man took out his business card from his arms: "I forgot to introduce myself, Yan Siwei, who is engaged in archaeology." ”
I was taken aback when I saw the place of work written on my business card. This man is not a civil scientist, but a serious archaeologist. Although the city where Lao Xu works is not large, it has found a world-famous Bronze Age site, and this person works in this national heritage museum. It seems that this person lives in my city, but he works in the city next door, and he found out on the weekend, so he rushed back to his work in a hurry.
Seeing that I seemed to be a little interested, Yan Siwei introduced: "There is nothing special about this symbol itself, but the bronze engraved with it is exquisite. He took out his train ticket and pointed to the start and end points on it, "You know, our destination is a Bronze Age site excavated in City G, and City C where we are starting also has a slightly less famous Bronze Age site. ”
"Not bad." I nodded and said, as a native of City C, the site museum is also a frequent attraction for spring outings organized by elementary and junior high schools.
"This bronze was unearthed at the site of City G, but it bears the obvious characteristics of the site of City C." Yan Siwei explained.
Although I don't know much about archaeology, I always feel that it is not a big deal: "These two sites belong to the ancient Shu civilization, and the geographical location is close, so it is not surprising that some characteristics are similar." ”
"It's not that simple, according to the dating, this bronze is also closer to the site of City C, and the site of City C is much later than the site of City G, that is, we have found something in the site of an older site that should belong to the future?"
"Huh?" The level of nonsense in these words is comparable to the plot of "The Title of the Book". Naturally, I don't believe that such a supernatural event can happen in reality.
"Is it possible that the former tomb robbers and the like dug up this thing from the ruins of City C and buried it in the ruins of City G?" I questioned.
"Of course I've thought about this possibility," Yan Siwei said, "But the strange thing is that this doll has actually been sealed in a coffin, and it wasn't until the coffin was opened last week that we found out that there was actually a doll inside." The coffin that sealed it showed no signs of being touched after burial, and both in terms of age and characteristics, this coffin belongs to the site of the city of G. ”
Seeing that I still didn't seem to believe it, he was a little anxious: "If you don't believe it, you can go to our museum and see it with your own eyes." ”
I thought to myself, even if I saw it with my own eyes, I don't know any chronological characteristics or time identification, who knows if what you say is true or false. Besides, although I am more curious, I have always been more cautious about things that have no reason. If it is really a world-class discovery, I can see it in the news sooner or later, I am a layman, why should I personally explore what is true or false?
Of course, out of politeness, I didn't tell Yan Siwei what I really thought, and he, as if he thought I was really interested, gave me a limited-time pass to the site museum in order to apologize for following me into the station. As soon as I thought about it, I was born to relax, and it would be nice to visit the museum by the way, so I thanked and accepted it.
Soon, the train arrived at the station, and after saying goodbye to the archaeologist, I went to the address agreed with Lao Xu according to the instructions on the map.
