After I got ashore, I felt that my legs were numb, and the blood in my nose was gone. The weakness of my limbs made me sit on the shore.

They threw the rope of their clothes back to the fat man and Raba, who had been dragged in first, and the mud had reached his chest, and he looked as if he was out of breath. The fat man handed the rope to Rabah in the back.

The men on the shore dragged them out with all their might, and Rabah was pulled out of the mud. A sound came from under him, and he was lying on his stomach on the mud and being pulled ashore by everyone when he heard a scream of fat words.

We looked at him on the shore, and saw that the fat man's body was very empty, and the mud was already over his chest, and he stretched out his hands until he passed his chest, and he sighed again. "In the end." His body stopped sinking. The fat man should have stepped on something under his feet, and he could step on something to borrow his strength, so he walked forward in the mud.

When we saw him breaking out in a cold sweat like this, I shouted at him, "Don't walk around, don't go to a deep place and fall into it, then I really won't save you." ”

"It's so deep down here, and there's a big rock down there." He said as he took two more steps through the mud.

After Rabah was pulled up, the rope was thrown back. The fat man pulled and moved forward slowly, only a few steps later suddenly stopped, he waved his hand to ask the people on the shore not to pull first, his body in the mud swung a few times, the people on the shore asked him what was wrong, he paused for a moment before saying, "There is something in this mud." ”

The fat man moved a few times but didn't respond, he actually took a breath, pinched his nose with one hand and squatted into the mud.

By the time he came out of the mud again, his face was covered in mud. He was holding a strip of stone in his hand. Someone on the shore shouted, "What are you doing with a rock?" ”

It wasn't until he was pulled up that I could see that it wasn't a stone, it looked like a stone statue.

When I approached, they were already washing the mud from the statue with water. I ripped the bloody scab off my nose, and as soon as I breathed through my nose, I could smell a foul stench in the air.

"It's ...... ...... the stone statues of Tibetan Tantra? ”

Tian Xiaowen touched the stone statue that had been washed off the silt.

I looked at the stone statue strangely, the stone statue was about half a meter high. The huge head actually occupies half of the entire body size, and the body looks very small, which is very uncoordinated compared to the head.

"you, the stone statue of the Tibetan Tantra, this thing is called the boundary stone." The fat man dodged the stone statue in Tian Xiaowen's hand.

Tian Xiaowen wanted to have a seizure, but he was stopped by Professor Hu and Xue Ning, who were tired enough from pulling the rope just now.

"Xiaowen, you have to learn from your Advisor Wang, this is indeed the boundary stone."

Xue Ning supported Professor Hu, and the two of them squatted down and began to study.

This stone statue almost sucked the eyes of Xue Ning and Professor Hu.

The fat man on the side explained to me that the boundary stone is actually the same as the boundary stone, which is used to demarcate the country's borders. The discovery of the boundary stone here means that we are now within the confines of the ancient city we are looking for.

Professor Hu and Xue Ning were extremely excited after recording and taking pictures of the stone statue in all aspects. They began to greet the expedition and continued to descend into the mud to continue looking for the stone statue.

We were already covered in mud, so we went down into the mud first. Before going down for the second time, we explored the size of the swamp with tree branches, and finally found that it was actually a pit of more than ten square meters in size, and the deepest was only two meters. It's not a swamp, it's just a long-term leaf drop, and the leaves pile up more and more, slowly rotting in it, and then being covered by newly fallen leaves.

When we walked through here, the upper floor was dry, and it was no problem for people to walk up. The horses were not able to do so, and they carried heavy supplies on their backs, and the horses walked over the dry shells. The surface of the shell was cracked and could not be supported, and the horse fell.

The horse was also unlucky, with short legs and short legs, and the shallowest part of the rotten leaf pit was one and a half meters, and the horse lost its roof and drowned in the mud.

This time, we didn't go straight down, and cleaned up most of it first with the sapper shovel in the equipment. As soon as I stepped into it, it was indeed a relatively large stone plane underneath, just as the fat man had said. This may be the plane on which the boundary stone was placed at that time.

I tried to use the sapper shovel in the mud, and soon the two of them found three identical stone statues. My sapper shovel touched a piece at the same time. After searching for almost an hour, a total of nine stone statues were found in addition to the fat man's first one.

Before we could crawl out of the mud, we brought the equipment on the back of the two horses ashore.

The nine statues were all the same, and they took notes and photographs of all of them. The conclusions drawn are basically no different from those of fat people.

"No problem, this is the boundary stone of the country to which the ruins of the ancient city I am looking belong at that time, and according to the confirmation of these stone statues, we can now conclude that this ancient city is the site of the ancient kingdom of Rongyu."

The fat man seemed to be a little puzzled, "Rong Domain Ancient Kingdom? How come I've never seen it in the literature? ”

Professor Hu laughed twice, "Advisor Wang, this is indeed not your problem, there is indeed no record of the ancient kingdom of Rongyu, and this is also a coincidence, when we excavated a Tang tomb, we found an epitaph that recorded the life of the tomb owner. In the epitaph, the owner of the tomb was a merchant who traveled back and forth between Tianzhu and Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty for many years, and the merchants had to pass through the country when passing through this road. But the strange thing is that in the records of the Tang Dynasty, the existence of this country is indeed not recorded. Moreover, in the later business process of this merchant, he suddenly stopped mentioning the affairs of this Rong Domain Country. ”

The fat man made a look of sudden realization.

"Now that we have found these stone statues, it proves the existence of the ancient kingdom of Rongyu, but this kind of shape has indeed not been seen. There's nothing like it. Professor Hu touched the stone statue with a puzzled expression.
