Chapter 17: Thanksgiving

On this day, I was making up for sleep to recover my strength, and I didn't pour out the time to tell Biao Zi in detail about those things with Lao Xuetouer, at this moment, seeing that he was going to turn over the lid of the box, I was so anxious that I broke out in a cold sweat, and I just wanted to say "Don't move", but Du Longbiao had already withdrawn his hand, "You said in the morning that this thing is evil, and the experts don't dare to open it easily, so I better not take this risk." ”

I breathe a sigh of relief, although Biaozi has a hot personality, but not reckless, just by virtue of this, it is a good partner.

But he still approached the box, I thought Bai was praising him in my heart, but I saw him reach into a leather bag next to him, and then pull it out, and there was an extra notebook in his hand, "Is this it?" ”

I want to give him a wild kiss!

Actually, I think that Professor Tong will take such an important thing with him nine times out of ten and come here to find it, I just want to try my luck, and I don't have much hope at all. But I didn't expect it to really let us get it, and at the same time, I also wondered, is this notebook not that important?

We took the flashlight and flipped the notebook page by page, recording a lot of work routines in front, and some unintelligible symbols and numbers, until the twentieth page, a line of small words finally caught my eye-

Songhu, A Brief Account of the Salvage of Antiquities in the Kingdom of Fuyu, Part 3, First Translation of Runes......

The next page is sandwiched with a lot of photos, which are the "image records" of those boxes.

It turned out that Xie Gong had already translated all the symbols and graphics on those boxes, and I was ecstatic in my heart, always feeling that this could uncover many mysteries in my head.

But when I flipped back, I was dumbfounded.

One moment "BC", a while "A.D.", a sentence "Fu Yu Kingdom", a sentence "Battle North", written in a preface that does not match the afterword, the donkey's lips are not the horse's mouth, and there are a lot of terms that have not been heard before, and I don't know what he wants to say.

Du Longbiao couldn't stand it after a few glances, "Li Er, are you busy in vain?" ”

Some are unwilling and are still turning back. But he pushed me, pointed to his watch, and said, "Quick! There are 7 minutes to go. ”

At this time, Qi Yemin, who was "letting off the wind" outside, suddenly coughed lightly twice, and our hearts tightened, broken! Tong Yang, who has always liked to take advantage, changed his sex tonight and took over ahead of schedule?

Well? No, it wasn't Tong Yang, there was a sound of footsteps outside the tent, very soft, and he stood in front of the door for a while, then went around to the back, and stopped in front of the half-open window.

Du Longbiao and I didn't dare to come out, hiding on both sides of the window, he instinctively grabbed the "old man's machine" as a weapon, but after thinking about it, he smiled bitterly, and probably understood that if this shot continued, we would really become bandits.

A person jumped in from the window, his movements were a little clumsy, Du Longbiao wanted to push him away, and then took the opportunity to escape, but I immediately stopped him, the man limped, it was Tong Liu.

She was startled when she saw the two of us, but luckily I covered her mouth in time.

After a pause, Du Longbiao began to explain to her, "That...... Teacher Tong...... Have you ever heard of sleepwalking? Yo! Li'er, you also have this problem, such a coincidence......"

Tong Liu ignored him and stared at the notebook in my hand. She snatched it up, flipped it quickly, and looked at ten lines, her brow gradually furrowed......

Du Longbiao stopped talking nonsense and asked her, can you understand?

Tong Liu said while turning the page, "It is a common way of writing in the expert group, which is convenient for internal transmission and reading, and also to avoid the leakage of sensitive information. ”

"What did you say above?" I asked.

"It should be a certain historical account of the Yu Kingdom." Tong Liu said, "In a hurry, Xie Gong only listed each translation, and he didn't have time to sort out and sort it, so it was chaotic and the content couldn't be connected." I need time. She flipped to the back and saw that two of the pages had been torn off, and her brow furrowed even tighter.

"Time is running out." Du Longbiao looked at his watch again.

Qi Yemin's light cough came from outside again, and someone approached the studio again, and this time he directly unlocked the door and entered the door, what were he afraid of, it was Professor Tong.

A few of us hid behind a large instrument, and Professor Tong glanced around, walked straight to a corner, and grabbed the leather bag. Luckily, we put the notebook back, and he took out the paper, took out the pen and paper, and sat down in a chair and wrote and scratched on the desk.

We'll hide across from him, and with a slight tilt of his head, he'll be able to catch me.

But his attention was apparently all in his notebook, and he had already taken a lot of notes on the manuscript paper, and it seemed that he had been studying all day. After a while to advance this paragraph, and then adjust that paragraph for a while, Tong Liu was right, Xie Gong's notes are like a messy puzzle, and if you want to completely penetrate from top to bottom, you need not only brain power and time, but also luck.

Professor Tong's mind seemed to be very confused, his brows tightened, he pressed his temples hard, and finally slammed the pen to the ground, tore the dozen pages of manuscript paper he had written, picked up his bag, and turned around and went out in a huff.

We were surprised, but relieved, and just as we wanted to jump out of the back window, we saw the professor come back and fumble around the desk, as if looking for something.

I turned my head to glare at Du Longbiao, who was still holding the "old man's machine" in his hand.

Du Longbiao's face was full of bitterness, as if to say to me, "Li'er, I'm sorry, buddy owes ......" but he was suddenly stunned, and then we found that the screen of the "old man's machine" suddenly flashed, and the originally faint light became like a bright flashlight, almost illuminating half of the tent.

Professor Tong also noticed it and began to walk towards us in surprise, but as soon as he got closer, he suddenly turned around and there was a person standing in front of the tent door!

The professor shone a flashlight, and after a few of us saw it clearly, we were all stunned - that, it was actually Xie Gong!

"Old Xie!" Professor Tong ran over excitedly, "Where the hell have you been?" ”

Xie Gong's face was expressionless, the corners of his mouth twitched twice, but he didn't say anything, and then turned around and ran.

The professor caught up, and we couldn't care so much, so we rushed out the door directly, and saw that the two of them were almost at the lake.

Tong Yang was handing over the shift with Qi Yemin, and when he saw someone rushing towards him, he was startled, and when he saw it clearly, he asked urgently, "Dad, what are you doing?" ”

"Quick! Stop him! Professor Tong shouted.

Tong Yang retreated further, allowing Xie Gong to run in front of him.

Du Longbiao and I glanced at each other, and a tacit understanding had been formed, one east and one south, outflanked from both sides, which became a trap for Xie Gong.

Xie Gong was blocked from the way, so he could only run back, getting closer and closer to the professor, and finally the two stopped face to face, and the professor gasped heavily, "Old, old Xie, you, what's the matter with you?" He saw Xie Gong holding two pages in his hand, stretched out his hand and said, "You, what are you writing in the middle?" Show me ......."

I was also getting closer, but I felt more and more that something was wrong in my heart, not to mention that Xie Gong's breathless face remained unchanged, just the running posture just now made me suspicious - although the steps on the two legs were not big, but the frequency was very fast, and occasionally slumped, and the movements were very uncoordinated - this, I seem to have seen it somewhere!
