Chapter 435: The Source
"Then someone from above came and told us to quit, and then the land was sealed off, and thousands of tons of cement were poured into it, and it took three whole months. I don't even know about these, the people on the periphery were cleared very early, and the troops were sent down to do it, and I also heard Lao Wang tell me once when he drank too much. It can be said that the current Youling Tunnel may not be able to collapse with missiles, and the entire mountain is covered with cement, and many of the people who participated in that incident have been transferred, leaving a few of us to gradually begin to forget. ”
"Come over here, then?" Cha Wenbin was a little puzzled, didn't he say that it was sealed.
"Didn't Brother Zhao call me here, he said that you ask him, and he went to my place to ask for this letter. I said you're really good, how can you tell that something is wrong in that place? ”
Cha Wenbin hugged his fists and said: "The carving insect skills of the country horseman, I can't see anything, and I tossed you all here, I'm a little embarrassed, it's time to make amends to my brother." ”
Chaozi quipped: "Oh no, Zhao Yunxiao is to blame for this, he made a fuss." ”
Zhao Yunxiao is also a thick-skinned master: "I haven't received a call from my master for several years, can I not work hard?" ”
While everyone was laughing, Leng Yiran had already prepared a table of meals, and they hadn't gotten together for a long time. At noon, everyone was happy, they all drank some wine, and in the afternoon they simply didn't leave, saying that they would eat hot pot in the courtyard at night, Zhuo Xiong went to the mountains to hunt a wild sheep the day before yesterday, and today it happened to be sliced and shabu.
At dinner, Director Leng drank some more wine, and the blushing person was also a little drunk, he staggered and stood up with a wine glass and said, "Lao He, you still left too early, if you were here, it is estimated that that bastard boy would not have gotten that thing abroad, hey." ”
Anyone can hear that there is something in the words, and Leng Yiran is a little unhappy: "Dad, what are you talking about!" ”
Director Leng was a little unhappy, put the wine glass on the table with a straight face, and yelled at his daughter: "Yes, I can't care about it, it's true that he is a businessman, and things are not stolen and robbed, but it is a national treasure, you know?" ”
"Uncle Leng is talking about me, you can say anything directly, I am a junior, listen to it. If I do something wrong, my uncle will point it out to me, don't protect me. ”
"Yes, you are a businessman now, just make money."
"Can you tell me clearly?"
"Oops, Dad." Leng Yiran hurriedly pressed her father back to his seat, and said, "It's just that you drank too much, you don't pay attention to him." ”
Chaozi gently pushed the wine glass on the table and said, "Uncle shouldn't be talking about that ding, it's not the real thing, it's an imitation." ”
"Hmph." I don't know if it's bubbles or wine coming out of Leng Chang's nostrils, he pointed to Chaozi's nose and said, "You're an expert, can you know that the lower part of that thing is genuine?" Even if it has only one foot, it is a national treasure! Do you know what the results are? ”
"What?"
"Based on the carbon-14 determination, American experts believe that the excavation date is 6,000 to 7,000 years ago, do you know what that means?"
Chaozi suddenly sat down on the table, he thought that that thing was at best a Western Zhou goods, if it was really the era that Director Leng said, then the history of this thing should be traced back to before the Xia Dynasty, and it still belonged to the era of flood mythology at that time!
"As soon as you arrived in Hong Kong, you thought that the antiquities dealer would be more illiterate than you? You are someone else in the garbage pit, and people are buying real treasures back! Let me say what are you good at, just get some bottles and cans to resell, and you dare to touch the bronzes, if there is evidence, you don't know how many times you have to move your head! ”
Cha Wenbin frowned and asked Chaozi: "Where did the things come from?" ”
Chaozi touched his head and said, "An old farmer collected it, and bought it back in tatters." ”
Leng Yiran said: "This time, my father came, and he still wants you to take him to find that person, this may be the earliest tripod found so far, so the location of the excavation is very important." ”
"Ma Jiapo's." Chaozi replied.
Where is Majiapo? Majiapo is a very humble mountain village with only a dozen households in total, located on the west side of the Youling Tunnel. From the 70's to the early 90's, before the tunnel was opened, people had to walk around the mountain and pass through Youling, and there was a small village in the col on the right side of Youling, which was called Majiapo. The origin of the place name is because there is no traffic there, and the local farmers can only rely on horse-drawn backpacks to come out, and now, there are still three or four families left in Majiapo, all of whom are some old people who are unwilling to move out.
Early the next morning, several cars set off together, and it is estimated that only he Chaozi can think of it when he goes to that ghost place to buy goods, and ordinary people will never find it. Following the old road of decades ago, the car drove to the top of the mountain, which is already a kilometer away from the tunnel, and hiked through a forest path and a kilometer down.
It's almost a forgotten place, because the population is so small, there is no basic electricity, and those who stay behind still rely on candles for lighting. Almost the bustling shadows of the people are hidden in the bamboo forest, the houses are all adobe in the countryside in the last century, and a few peasant chickens are being chased around by this group of people, and a big yellow dog is barking at them.
The moment Chaozi got out of the bamboo forest, the yellow dog and he knew each other, and they fled to the forest with their tails between their legs.
Zhuo Xiong quipped: "It's scared of you." "Haha."
Leng Yiran smiled: "What did you do to it?" ”
"It's nothing, when I came that time, it guarded me and didn't let me in, so I threw a bun to it, but I added some ingredients to it and stuffed a little croton ......"
When the hapless dog saw the bastard coming again, he must have remembered the pain before, and would rather hide than provoke it. This is the character of Chaozi, he doesn't care if it's a human or a dog, as long as he dares to stand in his way, it's Hades Laozi, and he dares to pull off a little beard.
There was a hunchbacked old farmer hoeing grass in the crop field not far away, and Chaozi Nunu said, "I got it from him." ”
Director Leng first went to greet and said, "Old man, hello!" ”
The old man looked back and lost the work in his hand, he recognized Chaozi, and said again and again: "Rare guest, rare guest." ”
In this field, Director Leng and the old man started a family routine: the old man is seventy-three years old this year, and he has a son who has been restored as a soldier and settled in the provincial capital; There is also a daughter who married away from home, and he was not used to staying in the provincial capital, so he felt that it was still comfortable in the mountains, so he came back. There was no one else in the village now, and they all moved out, just him and the big yellow dog. The old man said that he liked quietness, that he had lived in the mountains all his life, and that he did not want to go out again, and that his son came back to see him once a month, and that he went to town once a week to buy some groceries.
In the end, when it came to Ding's foot, the old man said that it had been left at home for many years. At the earliest, they picked it up in the mountains, in the upper reaches of the stream at the door, and they wanted to use it to make steel for five years, but the earthen stove couldn't be burned, and they were pulled back, until Chaozi came, and they sold it to him.
Farewell to the old peasant, he began to walk in the direction he said, where the mountains and rivers were so high that they could only be regarded as a small stream, and the water was usually ankle-deep. But when it comes to heavy rains, the torrent follows, and the water in this col is so fierce that several tons of boulders can be washed downstream.
The upper reaches of the creek only lasted less than a kilometer, and inside it was the old forest. This place is a collective mountain forest belonging to the government, all of which are stout trees and shrubs that people can't get into, since the state came out of the policy of closing mountains and cultivating forests, these forests have basically remained in a primitive state, and no one has been here for a long time.
If you drill further in, you have to rely on a firewood knife to open the way, and people can't go.
Director Leng asked, "Wen Bin, in your opinion, how is the feng shui in this place?" ”
"Whether it is a yin house or a yang house, it is a barren mountain and wilderness, born according to the treacherous terrain of the mountains, and a place where people and ghosts are rarely visited."
He nodded in agreement, "I also have some experience, this place is unlikely to have an ancient tomb, he said that this thing was found in the river, I think it is more likely to be washed down by the water, do you want to go in and have a look?" ”
Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong made a basic measurement with each other's eyes and said: "This place is only two miles straight from the hidden mountain pit you sealed at that time, it's hard to say, you can explore the road first today, if you really want to go, I estimate that I have to go back to prepare guys." ”
Cha Wenbin said unexpectedly: "In this way, you all go back to prepare things first, and I will spend the night with Dashan at the old farmer's house at the bottom of the mountain, and I want to ask him more things." ”
After the arrangement, Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong were responsible for purchasing the required equipment, and the women of the Leng family were responsible for studying the information of the year.
