Hearing Xiao Moyan shouting outside, she found it, the little wolf immediately put down the ancient book in his hand, got up and walked towards the ear room.

To be honest, I was also full of curiosity at the moment, and hurriedly followed. I thought that after the little wolf and I came out, Meng Xinrui would also come out, but I didn't expect that not only did she not come out, but she didn't move as if she hadn't heard it, and she was still there looking through the ancient books step by step.

Xiao Moyan carefully handed the book to the little wolf and said, "This seems to be an account book about Baisha. ”

After the little wolf took the book, he did not immediately look at it, but sat down in the position where I was lying just now, and flipped through it in a hurry.

The old prostitute and I sat on the left and right sides of the little wolf, staring intently at the books in the little wolf's hand, Kui Ye and Noke did not come, but they did not continue to look at the ancient books, their eyes were also looking here, as if they were observing the little wolf's expression.

It was a yellowed paper book, which looked like it should have been from the Qing Dynasty, and the little wolf first carefully flipped through the first few pages, but it didn't seem to be fruitful, so he quickly flipped down until he quickly turned to the last page.

After turning to the last page, the little wolf looked at me, closed the book, handed it directly to me, and said, "There is no record of the source. With that, he got up and walked towards the stone chamber.

After the little wolf left, the old prostitute immediately came over and said softly, "Open it and take a look." ”

I took the book to the old prostitute and opened it so that both I and the old prostitute could see it clearly. When I opened the book, I saw that the first page had very few words, just three words.

Although the characters written on the pages are typical of Qing and traditional characters, they can still be read clearly. For the sake of record-keeping, I converted the traditional Chinese characters to simplified Chinese.

The first page reads:

Jinding

Six

With just these three words, I didn't see what it meant, and I didn't think about it, after all, the book was already in my hand, so I was not in a hurry to think about it, I could read it slowly.

The second page reads:

Three, four, five

When it is ugly, Jin Tao, five boxes of white sand.

Yuanjiu pit mouth is insufficient, Jin Taocheng can make up tomorrow.

Jinding

I then flipped to the third page:

Three, four, six

When the child was young, Jin Tao, two boxes of white sand.

The pit mouth is not round, and it is round when it is enough.

Jinding

I went down to the fourth page, and it was still such a simple description, and it was almost always the same when I looked at it later, and on each page there would be a measurement of the white sand, either a few more boxes, or a few less, or they were temporarily missing and could not be filled.

After flipping through a few pages, I didn't have the patience to read any further, and went straight to the last few pages, and then handed the ledger to the old prostitute.

It seems that this is a very ordinary ledger, just a rough record of the amount of white sand transported, and the use of white sand, only these, nothing else.

Although I didn't look at each page too carefully, I also found a problem, that is, the number of Baisha shipments recorded in the ledger is getting smaller and smaller, and there are even many pages that record that Baisha has not been shipped, and also said that Baisha is very much needed here.

As the little wolf said, there is no record of the origin of the white sand in the entire ledger, I think I have guessed what the little wolf wants to know, he wants to know where the white sand here comes from? At least after reading this ledger, he was thinking about it.

After the old prostitute flipped through a few pages, she muttered to herself: "This character is well written, it seems that Zhanzhao's ancestors still have people who are officials." ”

"Someone who is an official? Nonsense, you're an official and you're going to come here to record the ledger? ”

"My god, it's terrible to be with you uneducated, why don't you understand anything." After complaining, the old prostitute turned a page of the account book, pointed to the words inside to me, and said: "Do you see these words, this is the pavilion style of the Qing Dynasty." ”

Seeing that I still didn't understand, the old prostitute continued: "Pavilion body, don't you know? You see, there are uniform standards for the shape, size, and thickness of this glyph. This is the standard style of the Qing Dynasty court, the imperial examinations of the Qing Dynasty are required to be written in the pavilion style, and anyone who does not write according to the standard of the pavilion style is not allowed to enter the Hanlin Academy. ”

After listening to the old prostitute, it feels really amazing, not because the ancestor of the little wolf has an official who feels amazing, but I am too surprised by what the old prostitute knows. A tomb robber knows so much, you can see any kind of book style, is this still a fucking tomb robber? Simply an expert in archaeology.

"Boss, can I ask a question?"

The old prostitute looked at me with a blank look on her face and nodded. I asked, "Where did you learn this?" You must have taken a professional archaeology class. ”

"Xiao Qi, follow Brother Prostitute and I, you can learn slowly, and when you know enough of the top people in this industry, you will learn the different advantages of each person." After saying that, the old prostitute patted me and motioned for me to go to work, and he also went over to help look through the old books.

I won't go into detail about the process of going through all the books, which is the most boring thing in my opinion. It took us three days to put together the useful books.

Fortunately, the air here is circulating, otherwise three days of suffocation in the ancient tomb would have to suffocate people to death. For three days, we always maintained the cycle of eating, reading, and sleeping, which was boring. These three days have been quite boring, and it has been a kind of ordeal for me.

After three days like this, we just sorted out those that we could understand, and there were many ancient books that we didn't know what script they were, and we couldn't sort them out at all, because we couldn't understand the ancient characters at all. The old prostitute was also enlightened when he saw the words he didn't understand, and he even suspected that those words were not from Chinese civilization, but from other ancient countries.

I finally understood what Meng Xinrui said when she came down, no wonder we should make long-term preparations, it turns out that this job is much more difficult than tomb robbing, at least for me.

We put together all the ancient books that we had sorted out in three days, and these books were very messy, from all dynasties, some were paper scrolls, brocade scrolls, and bamboo slips, and the way they were described was very different. Some are ledgers, some are epitaphs, and some are just ancient speculations about something. In short, we have found all the qiē related to the content here.

Among the ancient books we have found, the most recorded is the white sand and the thing in the white sand, that is, the test object that Meng Xinrui said. I began to understand why Meng Xinrui took this place so seriously and focused on these books, it turned out that she had known about the books here for a long time, and it was likely that there was a record of why she was the way she was.

The next task is to sort out these useful books, we will roughly classify them according to the dynasties of the books, plan all the books of the same dynasty together, and then summarize them from dynasty to dynasty.

I was involved in all the processes. Soon I found a big problem, no matter which dynasty in the books, there are references to Baisha, but no matter which dynasty's books do not record the detailed geographical location of Baisha mining, the only relevant written record is only that Baisha is in the hinterland of the desert.
