The next day, Lao Wu called the 4S shop to repair the old car that broke down halfway, and Qi Lu told him to go to the police station to ask Liu Chenfei about the progress of the case after the car was repaired.

After Lao Wu left, Qi Lu closed the door of the office and went to visit the injured Ding Xiaolan.

Ding Xiaolan was only slightly injured, and went home to rest after a simple bandage in the hospital yesterday. After listening to Qi Lu tell her about yesterday's adventure, she couldn't help but itch in her heart, and clamored to visit Professor Jiang with Qi Lu.

Qi Lu talked for a long time before Ding Xiaolan dispelled his thoughts and rested at home with peace of mind.

After leaving Ding Xiaolan's home, Qi Lu stopped a taxi to go to the ancient tomb site.

When he arrived at the scene, Qi Lu found that there were many people gathered at the side of the ruins, and there were armed police officers maintaining order next to them, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Since Qi Lu was not an archaeological worker, he was stopped by an armed police officer when he entered. Just as he was struggling to explain, Professor Jiang's assistant saw his embarrassment and hurriedly came over to explain the reason to the armed police soldiers, and then let him enter the ancient tomb site.

Qi Lu asked curiously: "Why are there so many unrelated people today?" ”

"Well, don't mention it." The young assistant sighed and said: "Since the incident of security collusion with outsiders to steal cultural relics, the professor went to the city early this morning to report to the relevant leaders for safety reasons. The leadership attaches great importance to this matter, so they temporarily dispatched armed police to replace the security guards on duty. ”

"So, the professor isn't here right now?"

"Yes, he has already gone to the city's historical museum. The professor told me to tell you when you came, that you could go there and find him. ”

"Okay, thanks." Qi Lu hurriedly took the car to the museum, thinking that the professor was a little confused, why didn't he call me in advance to inform me that I would come here unjustly.

When he arrived at the museum, as soon as Qi Lu explained his intention to the doorman, a staff member took him up to the second floor and into an airtight room.

The room was filled with artifacts excavated from the tomb's dark chamber, some of which were sealed in special glass cases. Jiang Wenhao was cleaning up these cultural relics with a few peers, when he saw Qi Lu coming in, he threw him a pair of gloves and then buried himself in work.

Qi Lu saw that he was using a magnifying glass to look at the inscription on a bronze vessel, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, once an old scholar like Jiang Wenhao started working selflessly, it would be like no one else.

After a long time, Jiang Wenhao raised his head and found Qi Lu in a daze, so he beckoned him over and explained to him the origin of these cultural relics.

Professor Jiang was talking, but found that Qi Lu was a little absent-minded, so Zhengse said to him: "Don't forget Xiao Liu's entrustment, you must master the archaeological knowledge of the Western Zhou Dynasty as soon as possible, so that you can not reveal your identity in the criminal gang." ”

Qi Lu then remembered the incident when Liu Chenfei asked him to approach Jin Sanye, he scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, and began to listen carefully to Jiang Wenhao's explanation.

After Professor Jiang told him some common knowledge about the cultural relics of the Western Zhou Dynasty, he pointed to a bronze artifact and said, "Do you recognize it?" ”

"Tiger Head Fang Zun, didn't you show me the picture?"

Jiang Wenhao took out a bunch of materials, which were full of photos taken by the tiger's head Fang Zun from various angles. "The one named Jin Sanye peeped at this cultural relic, so you have to master the relevant knowledge as soon as possible."

Qi Lu smiled and said: "Isn't it just a piece of Fang Zun, the amount of existence is small, and the scarcity is precious." ”

"This Fang Zun is different from the others." Jiang Wenhao asked him rhetorically: "Do you recognize the words on Fang Zun?" ”

"I don't know." Qi Lu replied honestly, oracle bone inscription or something, he had a headache when he saw it.

"My colleagues and I have all translated it this morning." Jiang Wenhao's voice was mixed with unconcealed joy: "It records the deeds of King Zhou Mu and the Queen Mother of the West. ”

Qi Lu said disappreciably: "That's just a myth and legend, if King Zhou Mu really saw the Queen Mother of the West, wouldn't he get the elixir and become an immortal." ”

"The elixir of life, Fang Zun didn't mention it. The written record is that the two sides concluded a peace treaty after meeting in West Kunlun. ”

"I see." Qi Lu stared at the tiger's head Fang Zun, and there seemed to be something thoughtful in his eyes.

Legend has it that King Zhou Mu flew to Kunlun Wonderland on a crane with eight horses, and went to Wushan Yunyu with the Queen Mother of the West, Qi Lu knew that it was the nonsense of the descendants, but today he heard Professor Jiang personally say that King Zhou Mu had been to Kunlun, and this tiger head Fang Zun was the evidence, his heart began to shake a little.

Although the Queen Mother of the West is a legendary figure, according to many ancient records, whether true or false, she lived much earlier than the time of King Mu of Zhou. I tend to think that the person King Zhou Mu saw was not the real Queen Mother of the West, but someone else. ”

"And who is she?" Qi Lu's eyes became a little distant.

"I think the Queen Mother of the West was a tribal leader in ancient times, and the tribe she ruled was already a minority by the time of King Mu of Zhou, and it was still in the matrilineal clan stage. Therefore, the leader of the tribe is still a virtuous woman, and it is this queen that King Zhou Mu has seen. ”

"Maybe." Qi Lu smiled faintly and said, "But have you thought about another possibility, professor?" The Queen Mother of the West is the god in charge of Kunlun, and she has lived until now."

Professor Jiang nodded slightly, and then remembered that Qi Lu was a soul crosser. He smiled and said, "If it is really like what you say, there is nothing I can do about it, and I am afraid you will have to prove it." ”

While the two were talking, a staff member came in from outside and said, "Professor, a policeman surnamed Liu has come looking for you." ”

"Oh, Xiao Liu is here." Jiang Wenhao said to Qi Lu: "Let's go, let's go see him together." ”

When he went out, he saw Liu Chenfei smoking outside with a briefcase, and Professor Jiang hurriedly took him into his office.

After the three of them sat down, Liu Chenfei first asked Qi Lu how he had learned about cultural relics, and then went straight to the point after a few greetings with the professor.

"That Tyrant has confessed to everything."

"Really?" Professor Jiang hurriedly asked: "Then how did he know that there was a dark room in the ancient tomb, and he even knew what cultural relics were buried inside?" ”

"He doesn't know, the person who knows the secret of the ancient tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty is Qiangzi."

Jiang Wenhao said dejectedly: "But the tomb robber named Qiangzi is dead." ”

Liu Chenfei took out a hand-drawn sketch from his briefcase and handed it to Jiang Wenhao, Qi Lu hurriedly came over to take a look, although the drawing was very sloppy, he recognized at a glance that this was the plan of the Western Zhou Dynasty tomb that Professor Jiang was now inspecting.

Liu Chenfei said: "This is the map we found from Tyrant's house, he said that it was given to him by Qiangzi, and it was based on this map that they found the exact location of the dark room." ”

Qi Lu asked curiously, "How can they have an accurate map of the location of the tomb?" ”

"That's a good question, this is still a sketch copied from the original drawing."

"And the original picture?" Qi Lu was taken aback.

"According to Stormtooth, Qiangzi told him that he had an ancestral tomb map in his house, which he had always treasured in his father's possession, and that he had secretly drawn it when his father was unprepared."

Qi Lu couldn't help but glance at Professor Jiang, both of them didn't believe what Liu Chenfei said.

You must know that during the Zhou Dynasty, the dignitaries did not want to be found after death, especially when the princes and princes built their tombs, they usually killed all the tombsmen involved in the construction to prevent secrets from leaking out.

Although it is not yet possible to determine the identity of the owner of this Western Zhou tomb, there is no doubt that the deceased was a prominent person during his lifetime judging from the unearthed cultural relics and the specifications of the mausoleum. How could he allow others to draw a map of his mausoleum and pass it on to future generations? This is so unconscionable!

Jiang Wenhao hesitated and said, "Could it be that Tyrant Tooth said a false confession?" ”

Liu Chenfei replied categorically: "We interrogated the security guard who participated in the tomb robbery, and he also confirmed that Qiangzi boasted to him when he was drinking that he had an ancestral map at home, and he could make a fortune by digging according to the map. ”

Jiang Wenhao shook his head, a bitter smile flashed on his face: "I said how these tomb robbers are more capable than our archaeological team, so that's the case." ”

Qi Lu's thinking is not the same as Professor Jiang's, he is more thinking about how to follow the existing clues to solve these mysteries. So he asked Liu Chenfei: "Have you ever asked Qiangzi's father?" ”

Liu Chenfei looked a little embarrassed, he shook his head and said, "I went to his house this morning, but this old man didn't say a word and refused to cooperate with our work. So I've just come up here to you, hoping that you'll find a way to get out the secret of his mouth. ”

Qi Lu smiled and said: "You, you don't look at the time when you visit the masses, of course going to his house during this time period is closed." ”

"Yes, the first seven haven't passed yet, no wonder people are emotional." Liu Chenfei suddenly realized that it had been less than three days since Qiangzi fell to death in the tomb, and his family was wearing linen and filial piety, how could he give himself a good look.

Liu Chenfei lowered his body and asked him, "What good ideas do you have?" ”

"Not yet." Qi Lu groaned and said, "I'm thinking about how to meet Jin Sanye. He knows me, and the way you put me in disguise as an antique dealer won't work. ”

Liu Chenfei nodded: "What you said makes sense, it seems that we have to think about it in the long run." ”

"I originally asked Lao Wu to go to you to inquire about the case, but I didn't expect you to come here. I'd better go back and talk to him about it, maybe I can come up with a good idea. ”

Qi Lu is an anxious person, once he decides that everything he wants to solve, he has already stood up and is ready to say goodbye to the two of them and return to the office.

Liu Chenfei said: "You don't have to be in such a hurry to see Jin Sanye, you have only been with Professor Jiang for a day, I am worried that your knowledge of Shang and Zhou history is not up to par, and sooner or later you will show your stuffing in front of Jin Sanye." In that case, your life is in danger. ”

"It's not as serious as you think." Qi Lu said with a smile: "I have also been in the antique world for a while before, and I still know some fur, and it is enough to deal with him." ”

Seeing that Liu Chenfei didn't quite believe his words, Qi Lu said again: "Don't you say that I have a strong ability to adapt to changes, and I will act when the time comes." It's really not good, and the people's police are behind me, what am I afraid of. ”

"Okay, be careful yourself." Liu Chenfei saw that he was full of self-confidence and didn't want to splash him with cold water, so he told him: "Don't be clever, report to me at any time if you have any situation, and don't startle the snake." ”

Before going out, Liu Chenfei came up again and whispered to him: "The dead Xiao Zhou is my master's son." I just saw that he was cautious and low-key, so I arranged for him to be an undercover agent, but I didn't expect him to be killed by gangsters because his identity was exposed. This gang of criminals is cold-blooded and ruthless, and if you sense danger, you can withdraw at any time. ”

Qi Lu lowered his eyes, he didn't expect that the sacrificial undercover agent and Liu Chenfei still had this relationship. Seeing that Liu Chenfei's face was a little ugly, Qi Lu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Team Liu, don't worry, I will definitely be able to collect ironclad evidence of their crimes, and you will wait to catch them then." ”
