Chapter 044: Signs



Putting down the phone, Dong Xiaokui did not feel sleepy, on the one hand, because of the Gulfstream plane. Although there is only one character at present, he can finally have a gift for Xu Zhonglin, and it is a gift he likes, although he can't afford it, but he will definitely like it more if he gives it to him. On the other hand, it is because I have been thinking about the possible progress of archaeology here, to see if I can squeeze out more time to accompany Xia Keke to prepare for the wedding.

Originally, it was already early in the morning when Chen Jun called. After tossing like this again, the sky will be clear before you know it. Although the early morning in the mountains is cold, the weather is good, and there are a variety of beautiful scenery. The blue sky, the green mountains, the gentle clouds, and the air also have a moist coolness, and between breathing and breathing, it is refreshing. The media people who live opposite the door also get up very early and are very happy to walk around.

Dong Xiaokui went up to the well platform at the foot of the mountain to fetch water to wash his face, the well water in the morning was steaming, and his hands did not feel cold when he put it in, but warm. She walked around outside, and when she came back, people got up one after another, and she began to make breakfast with Xiao Li of the archaeological team.

At breakfast, she asked the veterans of the archaeological team about the possible progress of the archaeology.

The veteran didn't answer, but Xiao Xu took a sip of pumpkin soup and immediately said, "I'm afraid it's going to be delayed, the place I cleaned up yesterday afternoon collapsed a little last night." The soil in this place seems to be different from the previous investigation, and it needs to be examined more closely. ”

"yes, I've never had that before." The leader of the archaeological team, who had just walked in from outside, also took over.

Dong Xiaokui's heart was cold, according to what they said, the progress here is incalculable. I can't arrange my own schedule. Xia Keke's wedding date is approaching, and as a good friend, he can't keep showing up. Or should we put this side of the matter for a while.

Just as he was thinking about whether to put this side of the matter aside, he heard a commotion outside, screams, accompanied by the laughter of a woman like a silver bell, which sounded so lively.

Most of the members of the archaeological team ate in the house. As soon as they heard the noise, they craned their necks to look out of the window. I saw that everyone was talking about who was in the courtyard.

Dong Xiaokui couldn't help but stand up and said to herself: "What are you doing outside?" ”

"I don't know." Someone from the archaeological team replied. Then they did not care to eat, but took up their bowls and went out. Dong Xiaokui found that the girl in red with short hair in the center of the crowd was always talking delicately. She wore her sleeves up, and she was followed by a few children from the mountains, all of whom were carrying several fat fish in one hand.

Dong Xiaokui recognized that it was a common fish in the river, the scales were colorful in the early morning sun, but the spines were relatively thin and messy, so farmers were generally reluctant to eat this kind of fish, especially those with children, for fear that the children would be stuck. However, then again, this kind of fish, such a big one, and there are more than a dozen at once, is really rare.

"Yo, Huihui went fishing early in the morning? That's not bad. The little girl's heart was also calm. "The beard in charge of the radio broadcast is quite loud.

"How can I be? It was a crowd of people jumping in the river below, and I grabbed a bamboo strip in the hands of the children. By the way, Xiao Fang of the CCTV program team also got an old turtle, and the old turtle was so fierce that he almost bit Xiao Fang's hand. They are still thinking about how to get it back, oh, Xiao Fang and Yu Da are still researching. It's right down there. The girl's eyebrows fluttered, and as she spoke, she pointed to the river beach below the mountain.

The river under the mountain is actually not wide, but strictly speaking, it is also a tributary of the upper reaches of the Min River. It is easy to catch a fish, and you have to be a martial arts master. Dong Xiaokui frowned, and the captain of the archaeological team next to him didn't speak, as if he wanted to think, and then turned around and went back to the house to continue eating.

Dong Xiaokui also had doubts in his heart, and instead of not taking care of eating like a group of young people, he went to catch fish with tools, but went into the house to continue eating. Between meals, she finally asked the leader of the archaeological team in a low voice, "Did you find anything?" ”

The old man shook his head and said, "Nothing. It just doesn't feel right. But I can't say that. Even my heart is irritable. ”

Dong Xiaokui also felt this way, but she didn't say it, so she was silent, sat at the table and continued to finish breakfast. After cleaning up slowly, Dong Xiaokui Station also walked leisurely to the river, wanting to go to the river to see what was going on.

The dwelling is in a flat area between the mountains, strictly a mountainside, and the winding path leads to the river. The water is especially clear because you are in the middle of the river, and the water is a little gentle, but you can't see the bottom of the river. Many fish swim around on the river. It is not unheard of to see fish swimming around on the river, and before the heavy rain in summer, the fish will always swarm on the water.

"Isn't it going to rain heavily?" Xiao Xu, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but muttered to himself.

Dong Xiaokui squatted and touched the water, looked at the group of cheerful people, and said slowly, "Maybe." When I was a child, before a rainstorm, the fish always swarmed up on the water. Dragonflies also flew very low in swarms, and the air felt very dull. ”

"However, this is only the beginning of May, and the rainy season in Shuzhong should not have started, and even the spring thunder is only a few days. But you see the reaction of the fish is like a torrential rain, and it will not stop. Xiao Xu's tone was puzzled.

"yes. It's a weird feeling. Dong Xiaokui stood up, couldn't help but look at the place where he lived, and calculated how likely a landslide was if it really rained. If it is a landslide, where should you go to escape in the first place?

"Looks like we'll have to ask the weather guys. See what measures are needed. Otherwise, this time will be in vain. Xiao Xu also looked around, and seemed to be visually surveying the terrain.

Dong Xiaokui agreed with his proposal, and also went back to the house to call Dong Xiaohuai and asked him to check the weather. Dong Xiaohuai quickly called and replied, saying that there was only sporadic light rain in Aba Prefecture, and there was no relevant forecast for heavy rain, and there would be no rain in the next three days.

"How is that possible?" Dong Xiaokui was a little talking to herself. Dong Xiaohuai was unhappy on the other end of the phone, and said with some slander: "Sister, I know you have a good mind, but you don't want to stay in the city and go to the deep mountains and old forests in Aba Prefecture to do something." What is the value of archaeology. ”

"It's not archaeology." Dong Xiaokui said, feeling a little inexplicably irritable.

"I see, it's mythological research. That geography magazine, my roommate reads. And said that you wrote well. However, it's always unsettling for you to run into the mountains as a girl. Dong Xiaohuai said.

It's obviously for her good. She just felt irritated and said, "Don't worry about the adult's business." You study hard, I'll hang up. ”

"Sister, I'm twenty years old, not a child." Dong Xiaohuai corrected very unhappily.

"Okay, got it. You take good care of Mom. I went to do something. Dong Xiaokui replied, regardless of his brother's reaction, and hung up the phone. I felt a little uncomfortable. Somehow, this menstrual period is just a few days away, but it's still so easy to get irritable.

She let out a long breath and felt a dull pain in a bone in her chest. I don't know how, for more than ten days, there has always been a faint pain in my chest between breathing and breathing. At first, I thought it was because I didn't sleep well, and I rested for several days in a row, but it didn't get better. Mom thinks it's probably because it's been outside for a long time, and the humidity in Shuzhong is too much, and it's not suitable for a while. Speaking of which, he was still not at ease, and urged Dong Xiaokui to go to the hospital for an examination.

Dong Xiaokui also wanted to go to the hospital for a thorough examination after the May Day holiday. Unexpectedly, the archaeological team made a new discovery here, and this came to this mountain. It hurt a little at this time, she reached out and pressed her chest, and said to herself: "Don't give the demon moth, I haven't loved that person well, and I haven't walked with him hand in hand." ”

Dong Xiaokui sat down slowly, breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned on the computer and continued to work. Ten fingers resting on the keyboard, next to a glass of lemonade. After a little thought, she decided to make a preface before officially starting a new issue of "Geography of Shuzhong - The Mystery of History", writing about the current situation and controversy, as well as the strange observations.

Ten fingers are flying, and they are very rhythmically tapping on the keyboard. Before I knew it, in the evening, I sent out the manuscript in my hand on my mobile phone. Only then did he stand up and stretch his waist, ready to go outside for a walk.

The weather in the mountains can be varied, sometimes cloudy and sometimes sunny. On this day, the morning was originally sunny, but by noon it suddenly became cloudy, and the temperature dropped a lot. Dong Xiaokui took a thick coat and tightened it and walked out. The CCTV program team has already begun to fiddle with the camera. Live streaming is not possible, but recording is a must. Especially in the village near the place where the monuments were discovered, Dong Xiaokui came to do a show as a radio person at the end of last year.

Almost all of the people in this village are old, weak, sick and disabled, and young people have gone out to work, which is a typical village for left-behind children and the elderly.

In the primary school in the col in front, there were batches of teachers who worked here because of the poor mountains and bad waters, and their daughters-in-law could not marry, and most of them insisted on it for a few days and then stopped insisting. In this era, there are only a few people who can have so-called faith. So, this place has become typical.

Recording the show, over and over again, is very boring. Dong Xiaokui looked at it from the side, but she didn't think it was funny. But last year, those children still knew her, and they all came around to ask long and short questions during the gap of recording the show, and a little girl with a red scarf smiled and said, "Sister Xiaokui, grandpa will say in a while, please eat dragon meat." ”

"Dragon meat?" Dong Xiaokui asked suspiciously.

Xiao Fang next to him shrugged his shoulders and said, "The villagers killed a big snake by the river below." It doesn't look like a cauliflower snake or a cauliflower. Quite big, though. Dong Xiaokui, do you dare to eat? ”

"Nothing to dare. I just don't eat that stuff. Dong Xiaokui replied, and asked the kid where he caught the snake. The group of children chattered for a while, and Dong Xiaokui understood that it was on the river beach, and it seemed that they were passing by. When the old man Li saw the old man who was bathing the cow there, he shouted, and the old man of the whole village came out, saying that if the big snake was not killed now, there would be a disaster.

The big snake rarely appears, let alone in this cold May Mountain. Dong Xiaokui frowned, and had an ominous premonition in his heart. ......
