"Marked, clearly marked. ”

"The stone should be laid down flat, and the bottom side should not touch the ground, so that the carving marks are damaged. ”

When the cornerstone slowly fell, Wen Shuo suddenly thought of something, and suddenly jumped over like a rabbit with a burning tail, yelled and jumped and shouted, snatched the marking paper tape from the hand of a staff member next to him and rushed over.

Everyone in the archaeological team was bewildered by the fat man's behavior.

As for him, he was so excited and cautious that it seemed that there was a carved pattern under the stone that he had seen.

Even if you see it, it's a stone, is it so fragile?

But looking at Professor Yang Jingbin with a serious expression, he strode over, and everyone naturally didn't want to question anything in public, but there was some expectation and confusion in their hearts.

"Be careful!" the crane driver yelled at the fat man following the window: "Stay away, you want to die?!"

The three workers who were responsible for answering the cornerstone below also hurriedly waved their hands to keep the fat man away, not to get close, it was too dangerous.

"It's okay, it's okay, I've done this kind of work before, I know to be careful. The fat man hurriedly waved his hand, smiling all over his face.

Wan Chenghe had already run to the vicinity and beckoned: "You all listen to Brother Wen, work hard!"

The cornerstone slowly falls.

As if he was afraid that these workers would not be able to do their jobs, the fat man stepped forward and joined hands with the three workers, adjusted the orientation of the cornerstone suspended by the steel cable, slowly tilted, lay flat on the sleepers prepared in advance, clapped his hands and said, "Do this next." ”

The stone is not too big, nearly two meters high, more than 80 centimeters wide, and about 50 centimeters thick.

The tomb is rectangular in shape and divided into two layers, four meters long and three meters wide on the perimeter, and three meters long and two meters wide on the inner platform, which is 30 centimeters above the perimeter.

There are a total of twenty-four cornerstones on the periphery.

The inner platform also happens to be the twenty-four cornerstones.

The foundation stone of the inner platform is 30 centimeters longer than the outer cornerstone, thus forming a stepped shape.

This kind of work is slow at first, but as you become more proficient, the speed increases.

As the crane continued to lift the stone up and place it on the periphery of the grave, the distance became farther and farther away, and the archaeological staff had already surrounded it and began to clean up the dirt and dirt on the side where the boulder was buried in the ground. Wen Shuo was ahead of them and had already begun to clean up carefully and carefully.

As he expected, the bottom of each boulder was carved with delicate and dense runes.

And the runes at the bottom of each boulder formed a slightly flawed magic circle.

Wen Shuo didn't know what these magic circles were, but with his experience and metaphysical knowledge, he could naturally see that the magic circles were flawed and could not be started and operated.

But he wasn't surprised.

Because he had already thought that at the bottom of the entire tomb, there was a magic circle.

That is to say, forty-eight boulders, each boulder has runes carved at the bottom, forming an incomplete magic circle, but forty-eight boulders are piled together, and a huge magic circle with a strange effect is formed.

"Hey, really carved patterns. ”

"Is this a rune?"

"Professor Yang is a pioneer in the study of ancient rune superstitions, and he deserves to be an authoritative expert in this field. ”

"Yes, just based on the statue, as well as the structure of the tomb platform and the burial chamber, I can deduce that there are runes underneath......"

"Incredible!"

......

Listening to everyone's discussions, Yang Jingbin's old face turned red.

This honor and merit should belong to Wen Shuo, but it is enjoyed exclusively by him - as a teacher, it is really not a taste in his heart.

But when his expression fell into the eyes of others, they all thought that he had made a new discovery, and they were excited.

Seeing that there were indeed new archaeological discoveries and were recognized by many experts present, Director Li had already thrown the unhappiness in his heart in the morning out of the clouds-those exquisite and dense rune carving patterns are enough to show that they have profound archaeological research value.

At the thought that these precious cultural relics might be refilled or even destroyed because of his own opposition, Director Li shuddered.

Now, the cornerstones are all dug up!

Archaeology has made new discoveries, and it is conceivable that this is the first time that such strange cultural relics have been unearthed in the country and even in the world......

As a person in charge of the archaeological working group, as the director of the city's archaeological unit, Li Chao'an's heart was pounding, and the great merit and honor were placed in front of him - the city's archaeological department, which definitely belongs to the Qingshui Yamen, and few outsiders come to the door on weekdays, and they are the only few people in their unit, and they usually spend their days with a newspaper and a cup of tea!

After discovering this ancient tomb this time, Li Chaoan and his colleagues were really excited for a while.

It's kind of a job to do!

Subsequently, he became a logistical support worker for provincial archaeologists.

I worked hard to apply for funds before and after running, arranged all aspects of archaeological work, food and lodging for experts, employment and leasing of workers and equipment, etc......

But there is nothing to boast about.

Until now, under the foundation stones of these tombs, the exquisite runes that have been buried for hundreds of years have been revealed...... Li Chao was more excited than anyone present!

This is a major archaeological discovery!

At least for now, it's unique in the world!

Mo said that all the personnel of the archaeological working group were very excited, even Wan Chenghe, the contractor who supervised the work next to him, listened to the discussions of the archaeologists, looked at everyone's excited expressions, and couldn't help but be enthusiastic, hey, on the construction site he undertook, he excavated unearthed cultural relics that shocked the world, which seems to be a great honor!

Just when Wan Chenghe's face turned into a chrysanthemum, rubbing his hands and planning to squeeze over to watch it up close, the fat man appeared in front of him: "Mr. Wan, hurry up and dispatch the transport vehicle......"

"Huh?" Wan Chenghe was stunned, and nodded hurriedly: "Okay, this will be arranged!"

"Director Li!" Wen Shuo ran to Director Li's side again and said, "In order to protect these cultural relics, you hurry up and contact where to pull these cornerstones to strengthen protection?!"

Li Chaoan suddenly came back to his senses, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat!

Not really!

Such a precious and rare cultural relic, placed on an open-air construction site, is indeed in danger of being damaged.

Fortunately, Wen Shuo reminded him in time, otherwise there would really be some accident, not to mention any great honor and merit, he still has to take responsibility!

So Li Chaoan hurriedly ran to call to contact.

It's getting dark.

In addition to three trucks, Wan Chenghe also brought in two forklifts to help load these precious stones.

Seeing the last cornerstone hanging out from under the grave pit, Wen Shuo jumped into the muddy grave without hesitation, squatting down to carefully observe the four sides and the bottom of the pit, whether it was possible, and there were other things left.

Really.

In the middle of the bottom of the pit, he found a small circular hole about ten centimeters in diameter.

Since each cornerstone was pulled out, it inevitably brought up churning soil, which caused the hole to be half blocked, so the workers were busy working underneath before, but they did not notice it.

Wen Shuo first used a small shovel to clean up the dirt at the entrance of the cave, and then beckoned the person above to hand him a flashlight, and with the help of the light of the flashlight, carefully observed the situation in the small hole.

At this time, the archaeological staff had already brought a wooden ladder to the bottom of the pit.

Yang Jingbin went down the wooden ladder to the bottom, observed the round hole with Wen Shuo, and took a pendant and rope to explore the depth of the round hole, which was more than three meters deep.

Due to the conditions, it is not possible to observe the situation inside the small cave.

It was as if it had been drilled out of something, or forced out, and the walls of the cave were smooth and neat, like a pipe inserted into the earth, but it was certain that the hole had no other material, just earth, but the surrounding soil was much more porcelain.

Several experts all gathered around and suggested that the hole, along with the surrounding soil, should be excavated and transported away, and slowly studied.

Wen Shuo pursed his lips, thinking that it was too nonsense.

It's useless to dig up this hole!

Just take a photo for evidence.

"It doesn't have much real value. Yang Jingbin shook his head and said to everyone: "Protect the scene tonight, and after dawn tomorrow, let's observe it carefully...... I judged that it was just a hole for water seepage. ”

Everyone immediately showed a look of realization and said yes one after another.

The cornerstone has been loaded, and everyone climbed up from under the grave, Wen Shuo stayed at the end, still squatting at the entrance of the cave to observe, but quietly, called Xiaoqing out, drilled into the small hole, and carefully observed whether there was any special abnormality inside.

After some examination, nothing special was found.

Wen Shuo was slightly disappointed, and was about to let Xiaoqing come back, but Xiaoqing conveyed a new discovery, which was a feeling.

In this small hole, there was once an anomalous aura passing through from top to bottom.

The reason why it is strange is because this breath has formed traces of evil in the lower half of the cave and the bottom layer, but there is no yin and evil state.

Hundreds of years have passed, and there is no breath for a long time, but it still prevents the invasion of earth qi.

This in itself is an anomaly.

After Wen Shuo thought for a moment, he called Xiaoqing back, then turned around and climbed out of the tomb along the ladder.

Forty-eight cornerstones, with the joint assistance of several departments in the city, were transported to a warehouse in the backyard of the city museum that was quickly emptied, and considering the preciousness of these cornerstones, the city also specially arranged for armed police to be on duty 24 hours a day.

The workflow of removing the cornerstone and temporarily storing the protection no longer requires the fat man to point fingers.

In fact, the staff of the archaeological unit and the museum profession are more careful and cautious than he is in this regard.

With nothing to do, Wen Shuo walked outside and lit a cigarette, pondering what the breath that had passed through the cave was.

At this moment, Wan Chenghe walked over, lowered a thick envelope with a smile, and said softly: "Director Li settled today's money, I didn't want to ask for more, I made up a whole number, five thousand yuan...... You take it, brother, thank you this time. ”

Wen Shuo received it in his hand, took out a wad of about three thousand yuan from it and put it into his pocket, and then returned the rest to Wan Chenghe, saying, "Everyone has their needs, and it is not easy." ”
