I continued to look at it, and the back was all about Dayu.

There is a page in the upper left corner is four pencil marked words, the handwriting is a little scribbled, I glanced at it several times to recognize it is "Dayu to control the dragon", the first feeling is to think that it is a typo of "Dayu to control the water".

After a quick glance, I realized that it was another mythical story about Dayu:

Let's say that in ancient times, there was a famous old dragon in the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, who was proud of his old qualifications, had great ability, was unruly, and did not take the dragon king in his eyes.

One day, the dragon king ordered him to drill the dragon soldiers and shrimp generals, and he collided with the dragon king in court, refused to obey his orders, and was fined 50 boards by the dragon king's staff and put into the water prison. Ba was disgruntled, strangled the guards to death, and took advantage of the fact that the dragon soldiers and shrimps were asleep in the middle of the night, and quietly fled into the Yangtze River. Along the way, they stirred up wind and waves, mutilated living beings, and did all kinds of evil.

Soon, the evil dragon sneaked into the river of Quren County in the territory of Ba country, it puffed up its lantern-like eyes and glanced at the river, but saw fish sails, rows of houses on the riverbank, people coming and going, and it was peaceful. "Humph! Mortals are so fun, watch me clean them up. Immediately, the dragon body kept shaking, and suddenly, the river rolled up dozens of feet high, the wind was strong, the sand was flying and the stones were gone, and the world was gray. It's a pity that the fertile fields, houses, boats and countless people in the river on the river bank were wiped out in an instant, and the once prosperous county town of Quren seemed to be a mess overnight.

The people along the Yangtze River, who had suffered from the evil dragon, pinned their hopes on the heavenly court, and the paper flew like snowflakes in front of the Jade Emperor. The Jade Emperor was very angry and hurriedly sent Dayu to ambush him. Dayu descended to the world by order, and when he saw the evil dragon opening his teeth and dancing claws to trample on the living beings, he was furious, picked up the golden axe and shouted: "The demon dragon looks at the axe!" I saw that the golden axe flew straight towards the old dragon as if it were lightning fast, and it was slashing at the old dragon's back, and immediately blood splattered everywhere, staining the river red.

The dragon struggled in pain, stirred its tail and set off a hollowing wave, Dayu immediately pulled out a gold chisel, and stabbed the dragon's spine with a "whoosh" sound and nailed it tightly to the heart of the river, and the corpse of the dragon turned into black iron stone and sank to the bottom of the river. As a result, a 200-meter-long and 10-meter-wide dragon's spine stone in the center of the Yangtze River in Quren County was formed.

The low-lying place in the middle of the stone is caused by the evil dragon suffered an axe, the middle basin is a big round hole, the chisel hole left by the gold chisel of Dayu, people call this hole the dragon navel, no matter how long the river water is dry in winter, the hole is always a pool of clear water, and it is very sweet to drink. The dragon's spine stone rises and falls with the river water, disappearing from time to time, mysterious and magnificent......

Reading this, I couldn't help but ask the old man with thick glasses: "What are you writing here!" ”

The old man with thick glasses smiled slightly: "Read a few more pages, maybe you can understand it yourself!" ”

I continued to look down with doubts, consciously speeding up.

Further down are also two mythical stories about Dayu, one of which is that after Dayu succeeded in controlling the water, he was named a god for his merits, and then was sent to the world to subdue the river demon, which reads like a mythical story of Journey to the West, and the second is to introduce the origin of the Dinghai God Needle in "Journey to the West", which turned out to be a piece of divine iron for Dayu to control the water......

Further down is a hand-drawn table, with the same scribbled handwriting barely legible, to the effect that:

The Yellow Emperor lived to be 118 years old.

After the death of the Yellow Emperor, his son did not inherit his position, but his grandson Zhuan Xuan inherited the throne, and Zhuan Xuan also lived to be 100 years old.

After his death, Emperor Yu succeeded to the throne, and Emperor Yu was the great-grandson of the Yellow Emperor, and Emperor Yu lived to be 135 years old.

After the death of Emperor Yu, Yao succeeded to the throne, and if he was the son of Emperor Yu, Yao lived to be 118 years old.

Shun succeeded to the throne after Yao's death, Shun was the eighth grandson of the Yellow Emperor, who lived to be 156 years old, and Dayu lived to be 107 years old.

However, the life span of the next few people is significantly shorter.

Dayu's son Xia Qi lived an okay life, he lived for seventy-nine years, and the kings of the Xia Dynasty after him were only thirty or forty years old, which is actually in line with the general life span of contemporary people.

it! couldn't help but curse secretly, the "bosses" in ancient times, they have lived long enough!

I placed a stack of A4 papers on the table and guessed what the old man with thick glasses had asked me to look at.

"These are all information about Dayu, but ...... However, almost every story is mythical and should have little practical archaeological value. "I consciously thought about it from an archaeological point of view, after all, there was a great professor in the field of archaeology sitting in front of me. 520

"What else?" The man with thick glasses smiled slightly and asked me rhetorically.

I thought for a moment: "These stories have deified Dayu...... He seems to be omnipotent...... On the last page, the tribal leaders before Dayu have a long lifespan! And it's a family. ”

The old man with thick glasses smiled again: "Young man, it's not bad!" You've passed! ”

Clearance?

I scratched my head, a little confused by the second monk.

"I'd like to formally invite you to join the Ancient Mystical Culture Research Group, and I'll take you to meet a few of the other people in the group."

As he spoke, the old man with thick glasses turned around and walked towards the door.

"Wait......"

The old man with thick glasses took two steps and turned around: "I know you have a stomach full of questions at this time, what do you want to ask, let's talk about it later!" ”

"It's not...... What kind of cultural studies group do you say? I've been very busy lately, and I really don't have time, so I'll contact you when I have time later! ”

"You're busy?" The old man with thick glasses was obviously stunned, "What are you busy with?" ”

As soon as he spoke, he said in a surprised tone.

"I came to Jinan this time, and I was sent by Director Hao of the Hekou Police Station, which is official business, and you also know that strange things have happened in the past few days......"

The corners of the thick-glassed old man's mouth raised slightly: "I know that inviting you to join is to solve these things." ”

After speaking, without waiting for me to reply, the person had already walked out.

To solve these things? What do you mean! When I was stunned, the old man had already walked out.

I'll have to keep up first.

The old man with thick glasses went out of the door, walked to the third floor of this building in one breath, turned left, walked to a gray security door, stopped, and then knocked lightly.

I looked carefully along the way, almost all the doors of the room had door numbers, and the other doors were all wooden, except for this one, which was empty.

I knocked three times, waited a few seconds, and the door opened.

"Let's go inside! There are only five people in the group this time, and you know each other! ”

I followed the old man with thick glasses into the house, I first saw the antique layout in the house, except for a coffee table in the middle that can be seen at a glance to be modern furniture, all the other furniture and utensils are like ancient ones, the room is seventy or eighty square meters, some are large enough, two-thirds of the place is a tall wooden cabinet, on which are placed a variety of objects - all are antiquities.

Then my eyes fixed on the faces of the old men sitting around the coffee table.

There were five people in total, one of whom I had met, and it was one of the few people who went to the estuary to look for me with Mr. Wu and the old man with thick glasses last time, and I don't know what it was called.
