Xia Qing's words attracted Gao Chao's attention.

Gao Chao has been a soldier, naturally knows the habits of the troops, after the general troops are stationed, they must immediately send a few reconnaissance squads to investigate potential safety hazards around, after those troops came in, although they were not stationed at the end of this valley, but their scouts must have been here, must have also discovered this cave.

Thinking of this, Gao Chao nodded and said: "That's right, in this case, the stone tablet at the entrance of the cave is very likely to be left by the troops back then." ”

With such an analysis, the three of them relaxed a lot.

In the evening, when the light around them had dimmed, and the day was about to pass again, no one hesitated to go to the cave.

When they came to the cave, they found that the stele was standing there, about half a man high, and it was indeed some years old, because although there were still some traces of red paint on it, they could not see what was written in those handwritings at all.

The fat man stepped forward and pushed it twice, but he didn't expect the stele to be quite stable, so he looked at it, the foundation of the stele was still very deep, and it should have been dug up when the stele was erected.

Gao Chao squatted down, looked at the stele carefully before and after, and said helplessly: "It's over, I can't see what is written on it at all, no matter how good the paint is in this kind of place, it is estimated that it will not last for thirty years." ”

Xia Qing suddenly snorted and said, "There must be no way for those who are engaged in antiques to encounter such things, but those who are engaged in archaeological research may not be able to ......."

Gao Chao and the fat man were stunned for a moment, and they both looked at Xia Qing.

The fat man pouted even more and said, "What's the matter?" Do you have any other special solutions? ”

Xia Qing just pretended to smile mysteriously and didn't speak. She then unloaded her backpack and opened it. A flat, square plastic box was taken out of it.

The fat man crouched to the side. His eyes widened, and he said, "Yohe, so tall, what's in this box?" ”

Xia Qing said: "I told you that you won't understand, in short, it is something that can restore the color of some monuments." ”

Xia Qing explained, having already opened the box.

The box was flat, and there were many squares inside. There are some substances of different colors in each square, some are powdered, some are paste, and there are some English notes next to them.

The light around them was getting dimmer and dimmer, and the cave was even darker, but the attention of the three people was not in the cave now, but on the stone tablet outside the cave.

Xia Qing took out a brush. There was a little bit of some kind of powder in the box, which was white. Then she asked Gao Chao and the fat man to gather together to block the wind in the valley for her, so that the powder would not be blown away by the wind.

So Gao Chao and the fat man squatted on both sides of the stele, like two walls, wrapped the stele and Xia Qing in the middle, only to see Xia Qing gently sweep the front of the stele with a brush, and the white powder was evenly glued to the stele.

The surface of the stele is not very flat, it looks like it should be a naturally formed stone slab, but it was just placed here to make a stone stele.

Xia Qing skillfully smeared the front of the stele with white powder, fortunately Gao Chao and the fat man blocked the wind, otherwise, this work would be difficult to complete in such an environment.

Xia Qing put away the brush and the plastic box, the fat man looked at Xia Qing, and said, "That's it?" What about words? ”

Xia Qing put the box back in his backpack, glanced at the fat man, and said, "What's the hurry?" Just look closely. ”

All three of them stared at the stele in front of them, the white powder sticking to the surface of the stele as if nothing had changed, but after a few minutes, a miracle occurred.

I saw that some of the white powder on the stele began to change color, and slowly, it turned from white to red.

The fat man couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised: "Look! It really worked! ”

Gao Chao also said: "This trick really works, this powder has changed from white to red, what does it mean?" ”

The powder, which slowly turns red, looks a little disorganized, and when you look at it this way, you can't see any results.

Xia Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, you'll understand in a while." ”

After a few more minutes, the powder, which had turned red, finally revealed the mystery.

Gao Chao looked at the stone tablet and read it word by word: "China ......"

Xia Qing and the fat man also saw very clearly, and on that stone tablet, those red powders had already shown two clear Chinese characters - China.

The fat man exclaimed, "What does this mean?" Why is it still written with the word "Chinese"? ”

Xia Qing's face was not very good-looking, but Gao Chao muttered on the side: "No...... The stone tablet has two words written on it, is this one ...... A boundary monument? ”

"Boundary monuments? What boundary monuments? The fat man was stunned.

Gao Chao almost trembled and said, "National Boundary Monument." ”

Only then did the fat man react and said, "What did you say?" This...... Is this a national border monument? ”

Gao Chao nodded helplessly.

The fat man turned his head to look at the cave behind the national boundary monument, and then said with some excitement: "I'm grassy, my fat man has grown so big, and I've never gone out of the country once, if this is really a national border monument, then from here, it's going abroad." ”

Listening to the fat man's words, although Gao Chao and Xia Qing were a little speechless, to be honest, Gao Chao himself had never been out of the country once, but he didn't think that now, a national boundary monument appeared inexplicably, and he never thought that this time he would step out of the country.

Xia Qing was actually surprised, but she was just skeptical, after all, she had done a certain amount of research work before going here, although those jobs were only on paper, but at least they could give her a general impression on the map, and this impression did not include jumping out of the country.

So Xia Qing shook his head and said helplessly: "I didn't expect that the ancient city of the West Night was no longer in China, but it was ......"

As she spoke, she turned her head to look at Gao Chao and said, "But this matter is a bit strange, Lao Gao, you used to be a soldier, are you familiar with the national border?" Why isn't there even a sentry near this boundary monument? There are no other signs, and this boundary monument is also very old, it is simply painted with two Chinese characters, and there is no inscription, you say, could this be a mistake, or the boundary monument itself is a fake.
