The fat man was already dumbfounded, and stammered and asked, "You mean...... The dead ones are ...... A real member of the archaeological team. ”

Hong Jinglong nodded calmly: "That's right, the twenty-one archaeological team members are all registered in Huaiyang City, and they are all genuine archaeological team members. The archaeological team did all the hands-on work, and never dug holes or robbed tombs. ”

I felt that my head was not filled with brains, but a mess, and after a long sigh, I said to Hong Jinglong: "Can you tell us everything in detail?" ”

"Yes, I didn't want to hide it from you."

Hong Jinglong sniffed the snuffbox again, looked at the night in the distance through the bonfire, and slowly told us the ins and outs of this matter.

The initiator of that archaeological team is surnamed Xu, called Xu Baolin, is a well-known professor of archaeology in China, there is a large tomb in the pheasant tomb that does not know the age, which is an extremely interesting thing for any archaeologist, but the archaeological standards of Huaiyang City at that time are very clear, if the ancient tomb is not fatally damaged, it is strictly forbidden to excavate, even if it is a protective excavation.

Because many archaeological technologies and levels in China are not up to standard, if there are important ancient civilization discoveries in ancient tombs, if they are not protected in a timely and effective manner, the so-called protective excavation is equivalent to destructive excavation.

Professor Xu Baolin has done a lot of research and preparation for the ancient tomb in the pheasant tomb, the more he feels that the origin of the tomb is mysterious, the more he wants to find out the real situation inside, before and after seven years, he checked all the information about the pheasant tomb, interviewed many old people, but still did not figure out the true face of the pheasant tomb.

Until five years ago, one day in the middle of summer, Bailongyu fell heavy rain for half a month, followed by a mudslide, caused a partial collapse of the pheasant tomb tomb, this news caused Huaiyang City to attach great importance to the archaeological team led by Professor Xu Baolin to carry out rescue excavation of the pheasant tomb.

Unexpectedly, after arriving at Bailongyu, I found that the project of the pheasant tomb was much larger than Professor Xu Baolin imagined, and it was impossible to complete the archaeological work of the pheasant tomb with the more than 20 people he brought, so Professor Xu Baolin hired more than 20 young people from the villages near Bailongyu to help excavate.

But I didn't expect that this mercenary, the archaeological team's excavation of the pheasant tomb and ancient tomb, spread in Bailongyu ten miles and eight townships, the archaeological team was really generous at that time, and the salary for those young people was much higher than the market standard wage, not to mention that in Bailongyu, a poor and remote place, the archaeological team for them, that is a big boss with a generous hand.

So the question is, this group of big bosses came to this broken place where birds don't, and they are extremely generous, if there is no treasure in this pheasant grave, who believes it?

The fat man sighed, fiddled with the bonfire and asked Hong Jinglong, "So, those villagers have a bad heart for the archaeological team?" ”

Hong Jinglong shook his head: "No, at that time, the villagers of Bailongyu only had some discussions about the members of the archaeological team, since they thought that the archaeological team was a big boss from outside, of course they didn't think that they were the opponents of those big bosses, so their ambitions were all restricted within a controllable range." ”

The fat man nodded: "So, there is a variable?" ”

Hong Jinglong raised his head and looked at the starry sky: "That's right, there is an extremely big variable, the inside of the pheasant tomb is even more weird than we imagined, this is not an ordinary tomb at all, just like ...... The grave of all the dirtiest things since ancient times, it is not human beings, but human nature. ”

Human nature? What does this mean? Is there a grave for humanity?

Hong Jinglong retracted his gaze and continued: "I know you don't understand this sentence, but I can't explain it to you in words, if you really want to go to that ancient tomb, you can go in and take a look, maybe you can understand what I mean by 'human nature', you listen to me continue." ”

"We just entered the ancient tomb, a lot of strange things happened, many people were injured, and the opinions of the archaeological team also had violent differences, led by Professor Xu Baolin, a group of people who believe that the opportunity must not be lost and will not come again, and we must seize this opportunity to understand the truth in the ancient tomb, otherwise the truth of history is likely to be permanently sealed."

"But the archaeological team is not only the archaeological team members, there are many, it is an external person, in fact, it is the tomb robbers who abandon the darkness and turn to the light, we are not many, there are only eight people in total, but many key technologies of tomb digging are in our hands, to be honest, this ancient tomb is indeed the most bizarre and terrible ancient tomb we have ever seen, although we are now whitewashed, but we don't want to violate the group training, this ancient tomb is really not something we can excavate, my opinion is to quit, and then discuss with Huaiyang City, When you're prepared, come back and dig slowly. ”

"But Professor Xu Baolin behaved in pain, he said that he didn't agree with the plan to delay the digging game, there was no way, we had to rush to the ground without preparation."

Hong Jinglong's calm pupils rarely flashed a trace of fear: "In the ancient tomb, we encountered a lot of strange things, the bullets missed, the steel knife was curled, and we sacrificed more than half of the people before we ran out of the ancient tomb, but that passage was blocked by the villagers outside." ”

Hong Jinglong said very calmly, but I listened to it creepy, I tried to imagine the feeling, in a strange and frightening environment, finally escaped through the obstacles, but I didn't expect that the retreat had been blocked by my companions.

This kind of despair is enough to drown everyone.

The fat man raised his head and asked with blazing eyes, "Why?" Why did those villagers suddenly resort to such vicious measures? ”

Hong Jinglong hesitated for a moment, but finally told the truth: "Because Professor Xu Baolin's notes were seen by them, and I only knew at that time that Professor Xu Baolin came here not for archaeology at all, he came to find ...... Red Domain's Doll. ”

As soon as Hong Jinglong said the word "Red Domain" doll, I felt that the fat man's breathing around me was obviously solemn in an instant, and when I turned my head, his eyes were red, as if he wanted to eat people.

I handed Hong Jinglong an inquiring look, Hong Jinglong took a deep breath, and said slowly: "The Red Fan Doll is a thing between reality and legend, just like a dragon, you say it's true, but most people have never seen it; You say it's fake, but there are quite vivid records in history, and you can't prove it's true, you can't prove it's fake, you can only explain it...... Doubt. ”

"Red Fan Doll, is a more mysterious species than the dragon, Professor Xu Baolin rummaged through all the information that can be found, only found a few words between the lines of the description, when the Qing army entered the customs, once found a kind of villain in the Xinjiang region, four inches high, weighing six taels, fair skin, can run and jump, mouth speaks, vivid, to dewdrops, pollen for food, mostly grow in remote mountains or between ancient tombs, called the Red Fan Doll."

The fat man said word by word: "Although the red fan doll is not famous in the historical classics, but the word 'Renrui' is recorded in many lost medical scriptures, few people know that the so-called red domain doll, also known as 'Renrui', is a good omen in the world, can be called the head of the treasure of heaven and earth, with the cerebral marrow of the red fan doll into medicine, can cure all diseases, and even increase life!" I thought it was just a legend, but I didn't expect it to exist! ”

After the fat man finished speaking, my heart jumped, and a scene suddenly emerged, that night I was under the cliff in the crack, and I once vaguely saw a white thing flashing, at that time I thought it was a hedgehog or something like a wild thing, now I think about it, could it be the legendary red domain doll?

But this is really a false speculation, and I can't tell what kind of person Hong Jinglong is, so I didn't say this guess, but continued to listen to him quietly.

Hong Jinglong looked at the fat man's eyes with a little more surprise, and said slowly: "I didn't expect Boss Shen to have a lot of research on this matter, but I was tricky, that's right, I learned afterwards that Professor Xu Baolin was already in the advanced stage of lung cancer at that time, and there was basically no cure. ”

Hong Jinglong sighed, with a slight sadness on his expression: "What will happen in the future will be very simple, as soon as the variable of the Red Domain Doll comes out, the villagers here can no longer control the greed in their hearts, and they locked us in the ancient tomb and asked us to hand over the Red Domain Doll, who expected it to be self-defeating, the tunnel suddenly collapsed for some reason, and all our teammates were buried alive in the ground, only I survived." ”

The fat man's eyes were a little more serious, and he asked: "Just now you said the word luck five times, but Shen Ye I think that in the underground of the collapse, if you want to survive, with the word luck, I'm afraid it can't be said, if you really want to cooperate with us, the most important premise is to be open and honest, if you hide it again, then our cooperation is a castle on the beach, as soon as the big waves come, we will break up." ”

Hong Jinglong was silent for a moment, and finally spit out the truth: "Maybe you know, my Kanto Hong family is a family of tomb robbers, and the ancestors have been ground rats for six generations, I was born with my parents in the ground, smelling the smell of the earth, I am the most comfortable time to go underground, and I have practiced my Hong family's bone shrinking technique since I can remember, when I was trapped underground for three days, I couldn't dig a hole without a Luoyang shovel, just when I was waiting to die, suddenly a weasel dug through the hole from the ground, I used my last strength to get out of the weasel hole, but by the time I found the rescue and came back, the bodies of my team members had mysteriously disappeared, and even now, I haven't found them! ”
