Professor Lu gave him a peach, and I naturally wanted to repay him. [Full text reading. 】
I just don't understand what they want me to help me with, and I'm almost certain that Professor Lu is coming to me for the rest of his business this time, except for coming to the UN to give a lecture.
I glanced at Quiet helplessly and said, "Quiet, you say, I'll listen." ”
Jing Jing quickly took out a red-headed document from his bag, handed it to me and said: "Changtian, here's the thing, my country's peacekeeping force in Haiti found out a while ago,"
Before I could finish speaking, I probably already knew what was going on.
I hurriedly interrupted: "The peacekeepers found a mysterious cave in Haiti, and found the dragon robe of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty in it, so the government invited Professor Lu to investigate, and you recommended me to Professor Lu. ”
Quiet's eyes widened, revealing an incredible expression, and said: "Oh my God, Professor Lu, let me just say that Luo Changtian is very powerful, he is unexpectedly unpredictable, it is incredible, we only found out a few days ago." ”
Professor Lu didn't make such a fuss, but stared at me vigorously.
I was a little embarrassed by Professor Lu, so I had to explain truthfully: "Quiet, you don't have to make a fuss, in fact, I have a friend who works as a peacekeeping police officer in Haiti, and this incident was what she wrote to me a few days ago, so as soon as you mentioned Haiti, I immediately reacted." ”
I paused, then looked at Professor Lu and said, "Professor Lu, what do you think, will that cave be the hiding place of Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen?" ”
Professor Lu showed an approving gaze and said with a smile: "Luo Changtian, you are very smart, you can even think of Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen, I also used to have this idea, but it is obvious that people who know a little bit of historical knowledge know that this is impossible." ”
Professor Lu explained the basis of his reasoning, which turned out to be exactly the same as what I saw on the Internet, and he believed that Emperor Jianwen either died at sea or hid in the South Seas, and it was impossible for him to escape to Haiti, thousands of miles away.
At that time, the navigation conditions were not very good, and the later Three Treasures eunuch Zheng He was so powerful that he was not able to go to the Americas, let alone Emperor Jianwen, who had been defeated and retreated to the South Seas.
And most importantly, when the great navigator Christopher Columbus discovered the island of Haiti in 1492, that is, Hispaniola, it was still dominated by the Arawak tribe, an indigenous Indian tribe.
It wasn't until 1502 that Hispaniola officially became a Spanish colony, but over the next hundred years, the western part of the colony was gradually transferred to the French, and it was named Santo Domingue.
At that time, Saint-Domingue adopted slavery and imported a large number of black gomen from West Africa, and it was precisely because of the arrival of black gomen that voodooism was also aroused.
The peacekeepers found traces of voodoo activities in the cave of the dragon robe, and the introduction of voodoo to Haiti in the 16th century, more than 200 years after the time of Emperor Jianwen.
No one can live for 200 years without dying, and Emperor Jianwen is no exception, so Professor Lu believes that it was definitely not Emperor Jianwen who fled to Haiti.
I said, "Professor Lu, if it weren't for Emperor Jianwen, could it be that there were other emperors in the Ming Dynasty who went to the Americas?" ”
Professor Lu smiled and said, "Luo Changtian, why must it be Emperor Jianwen, can't it be his descendants, if I really found the cultural relics of the Jianwen period in Haiti, then it can prove one thing, Emperor Jianwen did escape back then, and he also married a wife and had children in Nanyang, but his descendants for some reason crossed the ocean to Haiti, and finally left the dragon robe in the mysterious cave. ”
It seems to be so, but whether it is a descendant of Emperor Jianwen or not, what I am most concerned about is the secret treasure.
I asked, "Professor Lu, have you ever heard of Emperor Jianwen escaping with a secret treasure?" ”
Professor Lu shook his head and said: "Don't believe this kind of wild history, it's normal for the emperor to run away and bring some valuable treasures, as for the secret treasure or not, it is made up by others, how about it, are you willing to accompany me on a trip." ”
Before I could answer, Zhang Ye jumped out and asked, "Professor Lu, will Jing Jing go to Haiti with you?" ”
Jing Jing replied, "I am Professor Lu's chief assistant, of course I have to follow." ”
Looking at Quiet's triumphant look, I deliberately teased her: "Quiet, you don't study mining, why did you change your career to archaeology?" ”
Jing Jing pointed at Professor Lu and said, "I follow Professor Lu, he plays archaeology, I play archaeology, if he goes to mine, then I will mine." ”
Professor Lu smiled and said: "Xiaojing, keep a low profile, we are going to investigate, not to visit the mountains and rivers, Luo Changtian, I can reimburse the air ticket cost throughout the whole process, what do you think." ”
The plane ticket is a trivial matter, in fact, I originally planned to go to Haiti, but it was a cooperation with Mr. Liu, and I had to be on guard at all times to prevent him from committing a crime.
Now is the opportunity to go with Professor Lu, and his professional knowledge is very rich, maybe he can really help me find the secret treasure of Emperor Jianwen.
Even if there is no secret treasure of Emperor Jianwen in the cave, I believe that there will be a little clue left.
It's just that I still have something to do now, and I have to solve the mystery of Qian Million, I said: "Professor Lu, Xiao Ai and I can go with you, but can you wait for me for a few days." ”
When Professor Lu heard that I was willing to go, he hurriedly stretched out his right hand and said, "Okay, I've been living in Haicheng recently, just contact Jing Jing before leaving, and I'll arrange it over there." ”
Actually, I was quite surprised, why did Professor Lu trust me so much, I was just an ordinary big boy from the outside.
I said, "Professor Lu, you are looking forward to it so much, aren't you afraid that you will look away, I can't help you at all." ”
Professor Lu smiled: "I know Xiao Jing's skills, the person who can make her admire must not be an ordinary person, and you give me a good feeling." ”
Maybe it's because of my good face that Professor Lu has a good impression of me.
The lunch was very pleasant, Professor Lu had to go back to lecture in the afternoon, so he and Jing Jing left first, Xiao Ai and Zhou Xueqin also went back separately, and for a while, only me and Zhang Ye were left.
Zhang Ye looked at me with a wicked smile and said, "Changtian, my brother's happiness is in your hands, go to Haiti and count me as one." ”
I was a little embarrassed and said, "Brother Huohua, I have already brought a little love, and I am adding you one, I'm afraid it's not appropriate." ”
Zhang Ye punched me violently and said with a smile: "What's suitable or inappropriate, at most I'll pay for it at my own expense, so it's decided, if you don't take my brother with me, that is, don't treat me as a brother, I'll go first." ”
Zhang Ye said to go, he didn't give me a chance to oppose at all, to be honest, I didn't have anything to do with him, even if I didn't agree, he would find a way to keep up.
It's already 14:17, and I feel like I should have a lot to do, but I don't know what to do for a while, but fortunately, Cai Wenjing called at this time.
"Editor Luo, it's inconvenient for you to come to my house now, the state of Qian Million is not very good, I don't dare to go out, he just sits there and keeps staring at me."
"Okay, I'll come over right now, you hide in your room and don't come out."
After hanging up the phone, I hurriedly ran towards Cai Wenjing's rented house.
About twenty minutes later, I finally arrived downstairs at Cai Wenjing's house, during which time she had not called me, and I did not know how she was doing.
I hurried upstairs, but accidentally bumped into a man standing on the third floor, I wanted to apologize, but who knew that the man went downstairs without saying a word.
The man was wearing red clothes and a hood, he was quite tall, and he didn't know if there was something important to do, so he was in such a hurry.
I continued to walk upstairs, but when I walked to the door of Cai Wenjing's house, I found that the door of their house was actually open, and a bad premonition came to my heart, and I hurriedly rushed in.
But what surprised me, it seemed that nothing had happened, Qian Million was still sitting quietly at the table, there was a mobile phone with a pink shell on the ground, but Cai Wenjing was closed.
I closed the door casually, walked to Cai Wenjing's door and shouted, "Cai Wenjing, I'm Luo Changtian, come out." ”
After a while, Cai Wenjing opened the door of the room, threw herself directly into my arms and said, "Editor Luo, you are finally here, you really scared me to death just now." ”
