Chapter 39: This is rammed earth

Through a few simple sentences, the archaeological gene buried in Chen Zhijun's subconscious was triggered, and his interest in feng shui was actually his acceptance of another angle of archaeology. Although he rejected ghosts and gods, he found out in the past two days that those were not superstitions, and had nothing to do with ghosts and gods, and in the past they just lacked communication and learning with their father. Thinking of this, Chen Zhijun sighed and pretended to say: "Uncle Zhang, I'll buy a compass and make a big banner in a while, and learn from you to show people feng shui." ”

", do you still look at feng shui? Why don't you say it's a lie? ”

"Why are you like this, what about the elders, how do you know to pull the pigtails and hold on, the past yesterday has become history, the dusty past, you let him go!"

"Still playing philosophy? Then I also use archaeology to tell you, the last second has become the past, that is to say, the past has become a fragment of history, in the cultural perspective and causality, the last second is not meaningless, if your life is successful enough, many years later, your history will be uncovered by historians and society, humanists, and will be talked about by future generations, and your pigtails will be caught for a lifetime. ”

"Okay, I didn't say it! However, Uncle Zhang, you must have accepted my apprentice, right? Salute to you and learn from you. ”

"What about tuition? Bring! ”

"Did I drink for nothing? I can tell you, I am still a businessman at this moment, and what I pay will definitely be profitable. ”

Seeing that the two of them were blind and poor, Professor Chen interrupted and said: "Lao Zhang, you are not a good person, except for the professional you can get clean, where else have you ever been cheap?" You better go and prepare for the work arrangement first, the ground penetrating radar bought by Zhijun will definitely be a little short if you disassemble it and use it, you go and solve this, tomorrow morning you will officially start to map the 100-meter radius of the mountain, you must do this work yourself! By the way, Zhijun, do you have a ground penetrating imager, which can better discover the space below, and can display a three-dimensional map simultaneously. ”

"Yes, why don't you use those to build tunnels, 50 meters deep, 4 probes."

Zhang Gong heard that there is, and it is also high-matched, and said with emotion: "50 meters deep, more professional than we use, we only have 30 meters deep and two probes, local tyrant!" ”

"Uncle, what about laughing at me? I don't buy good ones, what if there is a problem with the construction? I'll take you to get it in a while, it's not in the project department, this is in the place where I live, you take it back and charge it at night, the electricity must be gone. ”

Just about to say that he took Lao Zhang to get the ground penetrating imager, Fang Yuepeng of Dadao Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. came again with a bag in his hand, saw so many people, and timidly asked Professor Chen if it was convenient, and after getting affirmation, he handed over the bag in his hand and said: "Professor Chen, after you left, I was a little anxious, so I couldn't wait for tomorrow, and immediately went to the construction site to dig some soil, you can help take a look." ”

Professor Chen took the bag and looked at it, the clod of soil was white in color, the hardness was quite high, he pinched the clod hard, the clod did not move at all, Professor Chen picked up another piece and smashed it before some powder appeared, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it and said, "This is rammed earth!" ”

After finishing speaking, he handed it to Professor Wang, and Professor Wang also repeated Professor Chen's actions and said: "The three-way soil made of glutinous rice juice, lime and soil is very old, and it should be before the Ming Dynasty." ”

Fang Yuepeng was stunned and asked, "There is also an ancient tomb below?" ”

"Not necessarily, how deep did you dig to get this rammed earth?"

"Less than 7 meters."

"Are you sure it used to be an ancient temple?"

"Yes, sure, it was burned by Japanese devils during the War of Resistance Against Japan."

"Do you know the size of the temple?"

"Before the demolition, I asked the old man on the side and said that there was a large area, covering an area of more than 30 acres."

"That's not a small scale, can't we go and have a look now?"

Zhang Gong looked at Professor Chen suspiciously and asked, "Old Chen, are you physically capable?" ”

"It's okay, it's just a knock, except for the occasional fainting, basically nothing else."

"Well, I'll get you a cart." After speaking, Zhang Gong went out.

Professor Chen continued to instruct: "Director Feng, you can report this, and then we will take a look." ”

"Then Na Cheng, you don't just go to see, you have to help excavate, through this tomb, I can be regarded as knowledgeable, what do I say I will also let you help guide the excavation, with you here, steadfast! I'll report first. ”

Soon, everyone went to the construction site under the leadership of Fang Yuepeng.

Professor Chen carefully looked at the excavated part and said to Yue Peng: "You let people use a shovel to clean the soil on both sides along this rammed earth, and I will see what the height of this rammed earth layer is." ”

With the quick response of several workers, Professor Chen saw that the rammed earth layer that was now found was an inclined plane, extending the slope from north to south. When Professor Chen got the results, he immediately thought that the rammed earth layer changes with the shape of the building below, that is, the bottom should be an arch, and the bottom of the arch should be a passage and a space for what purpose.

After Professor Chen explained a few words to Zhang Gong, he said to Yue Peng: "I suggest that you stop the construction first, and after giving you an exploration tomorrow, you can start work under the instructions of the municipal government, there must be an article below." ”

After saying that, he asked Zhijun to send him back to the hospital.

On the way, Chen Zhijun asked: "Dad, if this is under the old temple, why is there this building under the temple?" ”

"There are many uses for that kind of purpose, and the temple may be a secret room for meditation, a secret room for storing scriptures and books, a secret room for storing relics or relics, and so on."

"Relics or relics? Isn't it the same thing? ”

"Hehe, from the perspective of Buddhism, relics refer to the remains of dead monks, and if they are bones and teeth left after the body decays, they are called relics."

"Didn't the TV say that relics have mana, they are colored ball-shaped objects?"

"That's the respect for monks in Buddhism, if you believe in the existence of mana, that is, to admit the legend of ghosts, that is unscientific, but Buddhism does not only refer to spiritual, but also has its special meaning."

Chen Zhijun interrupted Professor Chen's preparation of popular science and asked, "Dad, some temples also have other uses, right?" ”

"How about individual laws?"

"Like a prison or something?"

"This one has, this is similar to some descriptions in the TV series, strange, Zhijun, I suspect that my brain is broken and I don't know you, or is your brain broken?"

"I really thought a lot about it in the past two days, and I specially instructed him before I left in the afternoon, the expedition team must be formed and flaunted, especially in the field of survival ability and knowledge, I ask for a high starting point, even if it is a little more reward, so that we can better serve your archaeological team, and at the right time can also be your defense force."

"You go and exercise your physical fitness first, you know the principle of being the first, so you have to do it yourself before you can ask others."

Chen Zhijun thought for a while and said: "There is news about the project today, let the suspension wait for the notice, and send people to explore again, ready to change the direction, through their preliminary surveying and mapping to the end of the demonstration, and then to the project launch, how can it be half a year younger, so during this time, I asked Uncle Lei to arrange a place for me to exercise my physical fitness." ”
