Go in circles
After arriving in the village, they felt that the matter of this Zhangjia Ancient Building would end here, because they should have found all the clues they could find, and they had been out for a long time, and they had to go back to their respective places to see.
They had delayed Jude's launch and given themselves plenty of time to prepare. So they decided to go back first, and there are still clues about the expedition. Since the expedition also has a government background, it is certain that they should be able to find their information.
So they made a plan, the little brother followed Mengli, to go back to Beijing to see the Liuli Pavilion, by the way to visit some people of the older generation, the fat man was responsible for the preparation of equipment, and Wu Xie continued to collect information.
"Aning, who are you following?" Mengli asked.
"Wu Xie." A Ning replied, and then looked at Wu Xie, "You won't mind, right?" ”
Wu Xie was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "No, no, no." You can help me too. ”
After A-Ning followed Wu Xie back to Hangzhou, Wu Xie began to implement his plan.
When they made a plan with the little brother, Wu Xie hadn't figured out how to collect this information, but then he thought about it carefully, and in order to understand the little brother's life experience, he might need to start from formal channels.
He and A Ning analyzed it, the city archives, especially the personnel files, are confidential, and the old archives can't be taken out without red-headed documents, this archaeological team was formed in the early 1980s, and something happened, it is likely to belong to the category of confidentiality, and it is not so easy to see.
In addition, the best way to find archives is to start from the research institute that sent the archaeological team back then, and it has only been more than 20 years now, which is not too long, and it should still be there.
After a few searches, they locked down an old research institute, which has now been merged and is located on the campus of a prestigious university.
The university was about to be relocated, and when A Ning, Wu Xie and his buddy Wang Meng passed, there was a big demolition outside, and the land was estimated to have been sold to a real estate company. If it were a few months later, you might only see a flat field.
Even if there is a clue that the institute is merged, and the archives may be merged into the new institute, there is a high probability that they will remain in the archives of the old university.
But it's not easy to inquire about this matter, Wu Xie entrusted the relationship, made a few detours in the old relationship of the third uncle, and found a person who worked in the research institute, the master's surname was Du, the name was very interesting, called Juan Shan, sent two Chinese cigarettes, asked about the situation, he said that the office had changed places, but the file was still in the school, the institute and the university still have nepotism, many of them are lecturers in the university, Wu Xie wants to see, he can take him in, in addition to the inconvenience of the door, the inside is still relatively loose, but the old file is difficult to check, Tell him not to get his hopes up too much.
Without further ado, Wu Xie went alone that night.
A-Ning and Wang Meng stayed at the hotel.
Wang Meng looked at the woman sitting on the chair playing with her mobile phone, thinking about what her relationship was with her boss, so he asked: "What is the relationship between you and our boss?" ”
A-Ning raised his head and glanced at him, put down his phone and replied seriously, "I'm pursuing your boss." ”
“?!!” Wang Meng looked shocked, I'll go?! The boss is finally going to get off the list!!
On the other side, Wu Xie and Du Juan Mountain went down the low and narrow corridor, there was no light below, it was pitch black, and when I shone it with a flashlight, it was all rows of wooden shelves, and there were kraft paper bags on them, thick and thin, complete and broken, horizontal and vertical, most of them had a layer of ash on them, and they smelled of dampness.
Du Juan Shan told him that all the files after 1995 that were commonly used had been removed, and the rest would not be touched for many years, and it was estimated that no one would turn them over when it was time to destroy them.
Wu Xie looked at this situation and felt gloomy. But this is also just right, the temperature in Changsha in August is quite high, and it will feel cooler at night.
He bit his flashlight, fanned his fan, and rummaged in front of old wooden shelves.
Cuckoo Mountain was afraid that he would cause trouble to him, so he kept watching from the sidelines, helping him find it, and asking him some details to help filter it.
I searched for a long time, but found nothing.
Wu Xie's idea is to search by year, and all the files here are sorted by year, so as long as you find similar investigation files between 1980 and 1985, you can get the information of the participants from them.
Changsha is located in Chudi, although there are relatively many archaeological activities, but the absolute number is not much, and a shelf is full. I don't want to go through the archives of the past five years, and I don't see any documents related to the archaeology of Xisha in them.
Wu Xixin said strangely and asked, "Is there anything else else?" ”
Du Juan Shan shook his head: "If this place is gone, it is basically not there, unless, this file is in the confidential archive room, then it will not be placed in this place." Otherwise, it will be specially destroyed. ”
Wu Xixin said that it is unlikely, even if this archaeology is a secret, there is no reason to keep it secret to that extent.
Du Juan Mountain comforted: "This is a common thing, maybe as you said, the archaeological team disappeared after that, which is a big deal, and in order to keep it secret, the file was disposed of." ”
They put the file bags in order, and Wu Xie was a little depressed in his heart, but he had already expected that things would not be so easy.
Wu Xie walked out of the archive room stupidly, and while spending two cigarettes for himself, he was sorry for himself, and he thought about what to do next. If this road doesn't work, then it is really as the little brother said, he is completely a person who has no intersection with this world.
At this time, Wu Xie suddenly saw the stairwell in front of him, and the stairs that continued to go down, as if there was another floor under this archive. There was an iron door at the top of the staircase, on which was locked a very thick rusty iron chain, and there was a seal of unknown age pasted on the side of the door.
"What's down here?" Wu Xie asked.
"This is the pre-1950s archives."
"Really?" Wu Xie took a flashlight to shine, and clearly saw that the rusty chain had been cut, and he just hung it on it and pretended to be. If you don't look closely, it's really not easy to notice.
