In the black box that I finally opened, it turned out to be these things, which I never expected.

Wu Jinghan's face turned pale, and it is estimated that she didn't expect that the so-called relics of her parents turned out to be a few bulging old envelopes.

At this time, I realized that the black-brown cotton in the box, which resembled some kind of animal fur, was cotton, and it was estimated that it had been in the box for too long and had become moldy and deteriorated.

No wonder when I shake the black box, the contents don't shake, just as I guessed.

Wu Jinghan picked up the top envelope with trembling hands, and a stack of photos suddenly appeared in front of us, looking at at least thirty thick.

Photo? Photos again!

I gasped, and the photo of Wu Baocai, Lao Wang, and Lao Hong instantly appeared in my mind, yes! The photo of Lao Wang is here with me, I don't know whose it is in Wu Yuhui's hand, and there are still two photos.

Wu Jinghan picked up the first photo first, and the eyes of several of us froze over.

This is a long-range photograph taken on the edge of the Yellow River, and there is no one in the picture, but a mess of stones and wood, and a bundle of steel bars on one side.

Zhang Lihai behind me wondered: "This seems to be a corner of the construction site!" What kind of projects can be done on the side of the Yellow River, to build bridges? ”

Repair bridges? I heard Wu Jinghan say that his parents both worked for a construction company that belonged to the Shengli Oilfield, and she also said that her parents were preparing to build a bridge across the Yellow River before they disappeared.

That's when her parents disappeared, and the bridge was never built.

Wu Jinghan didn't speak, and opened the second one, this photo is even more strange, you can see that there is not much water in the Yellow River, and there are some building cornerstones near the water's edge, and it can be seen that these cornerstones are some years old, and they are not newly built.

This reminds me of another incident, on the night of Wu Baocai's death, I followed the funeral procession to the Yellow River to "wade the elderly", and there were two rows of vague figures dressed in white clothes by the Yellow River in the thick fog, when an old man explained that this was the unjust soul of a craftsman who died when building a bridge before.

I definitely don't believe it, but it should be true that there was a bridge on the Yellow River west of Xihe Village many years ago, and the old cornerstone in the photo may have been from that bridge, because there was less water, so it was revealed.

Looking at the angle from which the photo was taken, the photographer seemed to want to take a clear picture of the scene inside the hole, but the angle of view was limited, and the photographic equipment at that time was also backward, and the photo only showed two-thirds of the hole.

Zhang Lihai slurred his tongue and said slowly: "What kind of hole is this...... It seems to have been dug by hand, so it won't be an air-raid shelter during the anti-Japanese period! ”

Before anyone else could answer, he denied his own speculation.

"Probably not, a fool dug a bomb shelter in such a place......"

The third and fourth photos are almost black, look carefully at the photo is a wall, Wu Yuhui behind him took the fourth photo, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, and wondered: "This doesn't seem to be a wall, but a ...... It's the cave wall – the photo was taken in the cave. ”

Hao Minyuan shook his head: "There are no mountains on both sides of the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, and there are no mountains in the previous photos. ”

This makes sense, if it is on the edge of the Yellow River, and this is a cave, then it must not be our area, but the Yellow River in the first two photos is flanked by a flat river, and it is clearly not a mountainous area.

There are some contradictions.

Wu Jinghan quickly flipped through the back photos, the pictures were very dark, she took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Could it be that it is not a cave, but an underground cave?" ”

Zhang Lihai nodded: "Well, there is such a possibility!" ”

Wu Jinghan's Qianqian's fine hands were very flexible, he quickly flipped through the photos, and looked at more than a dozen in one go, when suddenly his hands trembled and stopped. When I saw the things in this photo, my scalp was numb, and I couldn't help but shiver.

Coffin! It was a huge stone coffin.

Wu Yuhui screamed: "Oh my God! How can there be a coffin......"

Liu Liwei said sharply: "Look carefully, this is not an ordinary coffin, but a ...... It's an ancient coffin, and I've heard that the professional name is called a coffin. ”

It dawned on me that this must be an ancient tomb, and the entrance to the cave in the second photo just now should be the entrance to the ancient tomb, which is an ancient tomb located on the edge of the Yellow River.

When I was in junior high school, I heard the blind Zhao who told the village that choosing a cemetery is choosing a house in the underworld, and in layman's terms, it is to choose a home in the underworld for the deceased, and it is as important as choosing where to build a house.

I have long forgotten a lot of what Zhao Blind said back then, and I vaguely remember that he said that there was a lot of attention when choosing a yin house, what is close to the mountains and rivers, the key point is that the terrain should be high, so that the ghosts in the tomb can protect future generations.

But how could this ancient tomb be built by the river! According to the first two photos, there was very little water in the river at that time, and it should be the drying period of the Yellow River, so it is conceivable that if the water level in the Yellow River is normal, the entire ancient tomb will be hidden underwater, which will not be blistered!

This is the most taboo thing to choose a yin house.

As you can see, the rest of the photos were taken in the ancient tomb, which is a very large ancient tomb, with many burial chambers and a dazzling array of funerary goods, including a large number of bronzes.

I picked up a photo of the bronzes, and immediately remembered what Li Guozhi said that night, when they were cruising the river, they found a cargo ship that overturned on its side, and I wanted to come forward to help, but found that the ship contained a large number of ancient bronze utensils.

Could it be that the bronze on that ship came from this ancient tomb?

I remember Li Guozhi's words very well that night, archaeological experts from the provincial capital analyzed that those bronzes were from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and came from an ancient and mysterious ancient country in Shandong at that time - Gulai Kingdom.

Later, an investigation team was set up for this incident, but later an accident occurred, and most of the team members died unexpectedly and tragically, and the investigation activities were forced to be suspended.

After flipping through the photos in the first envelope, several people were confused, it seems that these photos were left by Wu Jinghan's parents who work in a construction company, why did they leave these photos!

Zhang Lihai urged: "Big sister, hurry up and take a look at the following envelopes......"

Wu Jinghan nodded and picked up the second envelope.

Could it be that there are still photos in this letter?

Unexpectedly, Wu Jinghan's slender jade hand took out a stack of paper from the yellowed cowhide envelope, and it could be seen that these were A4 papers, which were neatly folded to the size of just enough to fit in the envelope, about the thickness of playing cards, and the paper was already yellow.

"What is this!"

Wu Yuhui also felt very strange.
