Chapter 19 Tomb Exploration Plan
I looked at him with a quiet smile on my face, but I kept thinking in my heart, now that Chang Xiangjiu is gone, there is only Hu Botao left, what method should I use to open his eyes. I was thinking about it, when I suddenly felt a cold wind pouring into the Tianling Gai, and my past experience told me that there was an immortal family to sit down. That's right, it should be Chang Xiangjiu's soldiers who have arrived, but I don't know who it is.
I shuddered, and then I saw a shadow fly out of me, heading straight for Qin Wuye's front door, and then came back with a bang. This process is electric, Qin Wuye doesn't feel it at all, and the speed is so fast that even I feel like an illusion. Then I felt my palms sinking, and the warm touch made me understand that the fairy family must have brought me something.
"Show him what you're holding." Liu Lang's voice sounded in my heart, and after he finished speaking, I felt that my body was loose, and he went down directly. I didn't expect it to be him, it seems that when my master and the leaders of each platoon are away, he is the only one who can show his hand. He is a substitute sect leader who makes it like a miscellaneous worker, and he has to do it himself, no matter how big or small.
I spread out my palm to Qin Wuye, it was a piece of jade jade carved dragon jade pendant, which must be worth a lot of money according to this water head. The smile on Fifth Master Qin's face froze when he saw this thing, he first touched his chest, then stood up with a pale face, and pointed at me: "You····· This... This ······" Stumbling speechless.
"You see he's stupid, he can have this magic weapon means that he must know the power of this thing, although you ninth brother and I can't get close, but we have horses." Let him look down on you just now, let's just take down his life-saving things, and see if he is still scared. Chang Xiangjiu gloated in my heart, I told him that I did a good job, but I can't be too low-key in this business, you don't pretend that others should pretend to you.
I still smiled and looked at the trembling Qin Wuye, Bao'er and her father taught me those gestures I can't learn, I found that I just laughed like this It's quite mysterious. Mystery is sometimes useful after showing your skills, just now I laughed at the person surnamed Qin for treating me as a stupid boy, and now I am still laughing like this, he is almost laughed at by me.
Although Bao'er and her father didn't understand what was going on, it was not difficult for him to find that Fifth Master Qin had been suppressed by me. So he also praised me and said to me politely: "Sir, please raise your noble hand, Lao Qin doesn't understand the rules, but there is absolutely no disrespect for the great fairy." ”
Qin Wuye immediately hugged his fists when he heard Bao'er and her father say this, and said to me with a smile: "Master, don't blame, my surname Qin has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, my Wenlong Pei is a gift from a master, so many years of wind and rain in the rain and ordinary dirty things don't even dare to approach, Master can take it off under my nose I haven't found it yet, I can definitely trust your ability!" ”
Sure enough, rich people are afraid of death, so Bao'er and her father's Buddhist hall are arranged by someone to hide in it and the demons will not invade. This Qin Wuye is even more unique, a piece of jade pendant has the same effect, and it can be carried around. Sure enough, it was the era of the end of the law, and everyone who had the conditions had a hand.
I smiled and put the jade pendant on the tea table without speaking, Qin Wuye grabbed it and looked at it carefully, and then hid it in his clothes with a re-hanging around his neck. After tidying up, his attitude towards me was obviously much more polite: "Don't hide it from you, Master, I will teach me Chen Feng's eldest son's hall, there is an old ghost in it who is quite domineering, and I almost suffered a loss when I have a jade pendant in my body." You can do it, I actually know your strength in my heart for a long time. But you look too young, we ordinary people are a little bit of human nature, haha, human nature. ”
This Qin Wuye is really not an ordinary person, and his words directly resolved the embarrassment just now, that is, he praised myself without losing face. I waved my hand and said with a smile: "It's normal, let's not mention the little episode just now, since you are looking for me, let's talk about the specific matter." ”
Qin Wuye glanced at Bao'er and her father, and then began to tell me the specific reason for this commission:
It turned out that he studied archaeology before doing this business, and graduated from a university in southwest China, majoring in archaeology. He has also been sponsoring his alma mater for all these years in business, hoping to promote this discipline. Just half a month ago, they got news that in a rural village in Anyang, Henan Province, some villagers turned out a lot of bronze fragments when they turned over the ground. These fragments were brought back and confirmed by experts and laboratory carbon-14 measurements to be Shang Dynasty artifacts, but many of the characters on the fragments did not belong to the Shang Dynasty.
You must know that although the cultural relics unearthed in the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties are high-quality products, they are many cultural relics because they are prosperous. For example, due to the age of the Xia Shang Zhou, many of our cultures of that period are still at the level of inference, so you can never guess what new discoveries will be made. This never-before-seen writing caused a sensation with the excavation of Shang Dynasty bronzes, and archaeological teams from all over the country participated in the search.
As a result, the search took more than three months with such fanfare, and countless manpower and material resources were used, but except for that piece of cultivated land, it spread outward for more than ten kilometers and was not found. Just when everyone was about to give up and the project was about to freeze, a mine cave 14 kilometers away from the farmland collapsed. When rescuing the mine accident and cleaning the tunnel, it was found that a grave tunnel had appeared under the pit. Due to the blockage of the tomb due to the collapse of the mine, the soil below is complex, and the water of the mine is poured into the tomb. After the archaeological team spent a month cleaning up the tomb passage, they found that there was a broken dragon stone at the end of the tomb at the pass leading to the main chamber.
Qin Wuye said that there was a line of words written on the broken dragon stone, and the ancient literature experts translated it was: Those who trespass will not stand! It means that whoever enters without the consent of the owner of the tomb will die. At that time, no one cared, and generally the ancient man-made tombs would write some words to scare the living, that is, they were afraid that they would be dug up after death. It's the age of technology, who still believes in this. Besides, we are not tomb robbers, we are rescuing cultural relics. Therefore, after the research of a group of mechanics experts and blasting experts, in order to avoid the destruction of the Broken Dragon Stone and the collapse of the main tomb, they blasted a hole in the lower right of the Broken Dragon Stone, and sent people down one by one after the air was circulated.
Everything was fine, but something happened when I was next. Three people went down one after another, and they heard the movement of ghosts crying wolves below. The tractor above began to stir the rope back, and when the two people in the back came up, their clothes were all torn, and there was no good meat on their bodies. The first one didn't come up at all, and the composite nylon rope with the thickness of the thumb broke at the feet of the second person, and the rope head was charred black, as if it had been burned. I took it back for a test and said that it was fused by an unknown strong acid component.
Qin Wuye said that he was afraid when he said this, and he said to me very seriously: "This time we have invited several metaphysical gentlemen, and you are one of them. Although we don't want to admit it, all clues point to a non-human element at work. Because something happened, this archaeological project announced that it had been frozen, and we were going to secretly revisit the ancient tomb. We have a risk assessment, and if things can't be done at that time, we won't force the tomb. There are professionals in charge of going down, and you just need to provide protection and guidance from your field. Because there is a certain amount of risk, no matter whether it is successful or not, there will be no less reward in the future. If it happens, there's extra money. ”
During the whole process of Qin Wuye's narration, Bao'er and her father listened thoughtfully with frowns, and secretly gave me a look from time to time. I don't know exactly what he's going to say, but I can tell he's trying to keep me out of this job.
To be honest, even I have heard a lot of loopholes from Qin Wuye's mouth, and the funding for his alma mater to promote science is negligible. Even if what he says about the university is true, what qualifications does an archaeology major from a university have to participate in the excavation of ancient tombs? Besides, archaeology is all about rescuing cultural relics, and even bricks and tiles are carefully cleaned with a brush, and he told me that the broken dragon stone uses explosives, which is very suspicious. In the end, if the project has been frozen, can he still secretly organize people to go down? In what capacity did he do this?
Putting aside all the embellishments, the subject of his words is to enter the ancient tomb, so whether it is tomb robbery or archaeology is a bit intriguing. Through the details he said, it is not difficult to guess that this ancient tomb has been dug once, or has been dug once, but without success. Through him, he said that he had found several gentlemen, and it could be said that what happened at that time was probably much more serious than he had described.
Through various analyses, the first reaction in my mind was that I couldn't do this work, and I couldn't even participate. First, if he is engaged in tomb robbing, then participation will be involved. Second, this ancient tomb is full of evil sects when he describes it, and my master is not here, so I don't know if my safety can be guaranteed. Although my master entrusted me to Liu Lang, I was still used to listening to my master.
Although I didn't want to participate in Qin Wuye's plan to visit the tomb again, I didn't know which tendon I was wrong in my mind, so I didn't reject him directly, but said tactfully: "This matter is a bit complicated, I need to go back and discuss with my old immortals, after all, it's not just me who really does things, but more of my immortals' skills." ”
Qin Wuye smiled and nodded and said to me: "Yes, the team will set off on the fifteenth of this month, if you think about it, contact me two days in advance, and I will prepare supplies for you." Your immortal family's skills are not ordinary, I am a hundred trusts, if you can come, I can give 500,000 first. After the matter is completed, this is all small money, even if it doesn't work, the 500,000 yuan will be used as hard work. ”
Qin Wuye is very good at grasping people's hearts, and his respect for me comes from Liu Lang's ability just now. But it is not difficult for him to analyze from my dress and age that I am short of money, and it is useless for me to pretend to be useless. Hehe, although the temptation of this 500,000 is very great, and I really want to earn it, I have to ask my old fairy if I have the life to earn it.
