Chapter 598: Huge Head
Gu Baotian took the microphone and continued to narrate: "At that time, all of us were full of curiosity, and everyone wanted to know the truth about the two black holes. But the water in the middle of Crescent Lake was very deep, and the archaeological team didn't have diving equipment, so in the end, Professor Wen came up with a solution-"
Wen Mushan's solution is that because there is a depression not far away, it seems that the altitude is much lower than that of Crescent Lake. So he suggested that everyone dig a diversion channel to divert the water of Crescent Lake into the hollow, so that the bottom of the lake would be exposed.
Everyone said they would do it, because the distance was not far, and the sand had already swept away a lot of gravel this time, so the remaining workload was not so large.
I don't know why, Huang Shanbao secretly felt that they were two treasure caves. He instructed everyone to keep digging the diversion canal, and they all started work at night, as if they couldn't wait all night.
Four days later, the diversion ditch was dug. These people dug a hole in the edge of the crescent lake, and then watched as the water poured down and was finally evaporated and absorbed into the desert.
The villagers climbed to the perimeter of the two black holes and began to desilt.
Unlike the soft mud in other places, the land around the black hole is still solid and hard, so it is not so troublesome for everyone to work, except for Huang Shanbao who almost fell into it, and the cleanup has been going smoothly.
Until one day, when Huang Shanbao fell all over the mud and wanted to go back to change his clothes, he stood on the city wall and looked at the bottom of the lake, and finally discovered the secret of the two black holes.
He said he almost fell off the wall in fright.
Because they're not two black holes, they're just two eye sockets.
What appeared in front of him was a huge skull, the skull was more than ten meters long and more than five meters wide, if it was really a giant skull, then this giant was at least two hundred meters high......
Huang Shanbao stumbled back again, he pulled Wen Mushan and went back to the city wall.
Huang Shanbao had insomnia that night, and Wen Mushan didn't sleep all night. In the middle of the night, Huang Shanbao heard a noise in the tent, and he looked through the gap to see that it was Wen Mushan who walked out alone.
He thought that Professor Wen was just going to relieve himself, but he didn't expect him to leave the tent and head towards the camels by the moonlight.
Wen Mushan insisted that the camp be set up far away, so from the camp to the West Night Ruins, everyone generally walked, and only rode camels when there was something urgent.
Huang Shanbao also secretly followed. He found that Wen Mushan was leading a camel, and he did not ride it, but walked towards the West Night Ruins by one person and one camel.
His heart moved, and he followed.
Wen Mushan walked slowly, and Huang Shanbao also followed far behind. He saw Wen Mushan coming around the ruins, he tied up the camel, and then walked around the city wall and re-entered the skull house.
Thinking of the white bones everywhere in the house, Huang Shanbao was already scared, he didn't dare to follow up, and he was afraid of being discovered by Wen Mushan, so he went around the ancient city, and then climbed the city wall again, wanting to take a look at the giant skull in the Crescent Lake from afar by moonlight.
But as soon as he climbed the wall, he quickly squatted down.
For he found that in the moonlight, on top of the wall facing the Crescent Lake, there was a figure standing there.
It was a woman, Huang Shanbao couldn't see her appearance clearly, and could only judge from her fluttering dress. Her clothes were blown by the wind, just like the ancient ladies in the TV series.
And this woman is definitely not someone he is familiar with - there are no women in the archaeological team, and even if there are women, she will not have such clothes for acting.
The woman apparently didn't notice him. She still looked into the distance, motionless for a long time, Huang Shanbao felt that his eyes were a little sour, and when he blinked and opened them, the woman was gone.
Huang Shanbao was about to look for it, but at this moment, he saw Wen Mushan come out of the skull room with a thick roll of things in his hand.
But at this moment, a bleak sound suddenly sounded in the entire ancient city.
Where did this voice come from, is it an ancient ghost?!
Huang Shanbao was so frightened that he hurriedly jumped off the city wall, he fled into the desert, ran to the camel, and didn't care whether Wen Mushan was alive or dead, he jumped on the camel and rode to the camp.
He slipped into the tent, wrapped his sleeping bag tightly, and shivered for two hours. Until dawn, a camel bell woke up the whole team, and it turned out that Fei Tang had returned from Yecheng.
Huang Shanbao saw a woman on the city wall last night, and Fei Tang brought a woman today.
The villagers are stupid, they have been in the desert for more than a month, not to mention women, they have never even seen a living person, not to mention that this woman is so smart and quiet at first glance.
"You can't see such a tasteful person in the county." Lu Jiefang said with a sigh of relief.
"Don't talk about the county seat, I haven't seen it in the provincial capital!" Huang Shanbao will never forget to show off his experience of going to Urumqi.
This woman is Shu Yun, that is, Wen Mushan's wife.
Wen Mushan was surprised and delighted by his wife's arrival, but for him, it seemed that the archaeological site of Crescent Lake was more important, and he took Fei Tang to see the huge skull. Huang Shanbao naturally always follows.
"Oh my God, is this a real bone, or a statue?" Fei Tang gasped, he turned to look at the "scar" that smashed into the city and asked.
Wen Mushan pointed to the "scar", and then pointed to the skull and said: "From the point of view, when the statue toppled over, this head was broken, and then because of inertia, it was thrown under the crescent lake. ”
He took a piece of paper and showed Fei Tang a picture of the force on the golem when it was toppled. Fei Tang nodded repeatedly.
"So, is this skull carved out of stone? And then it was covered with colored clay and placed on the statue's neck? However, there were no cranes in ancient times, so how could they lift and install such a heavy thing? ”
Wen Mushan said with a serious face: "Tip, you're wrong, it's not a carved thing, it's a real bone." ”
"It's so big...... The head? Fei Tang was surprised and incoherent.
"Yes. I found some parchment books from around the ancient city. It is written in the Ori script, and although the handwriting has been spent, and many of the words have not yet been interpreted, it appears to be the epistle of the people of Siya at that time. I've sorted them out. ”
"Is there any information in there?"
"Of course, the gist of what is written in it is - a witch has come to the west, killed my royal family, destroyed my temple, and enslaved my people. And the first thing this wizard asked the people of the West Night to do was to find the head of the god. ”
"God's head?"
"That's right," Wen Mushan said, pointing to the skull lying at the bottom of the Crescent Lake, "it's that thing, it's also a species that has never been discovered in biology, and it's also an earth-shattering event that can rewrite human history in archaeology." ”
