"Hehe, we're just tired of practicing, just having fun!" As I spoke, I glanced at the cheap, and he immediately understood, hurriedly put away the chessboard, stood up, and said with a hippie smile: "Hehe, why are my sister-in-law and uncle here?" ”

Dong Xiaodan said angrily: "I'm here to bring you good things!" With that, she took out a large bag of things from her satchel and threw it on the coffee table.

I hurriedly stepped forward to open the bag and saw that it was a large bag of dried red dates.

The cheap also knew that they had gone to Lop Nur, and said with a smile: "Hehe, this is really a thousand miles to send dates!" ”

Although I have long heard that Xinjiang's red dates are famous, I never thought that they would come to the door in order to send such a package of red dates, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Dong, you are too polite, and this bothers you to ...... it."

I was just halfway through my sentence when Dong Xiaodan interrupted me: "Do you really think that we came to you just to send a bag of red dates?" Didn't you see my dad coming, too? ”

I was stunned for a while before I came back to my senses, and hurriedly asked Professor Dong, "Uncle Dong is looking for us for something?" ”

Professor Dong smiled and nodded, and said, "There is indeed something, after thinking about it, I think I should still come to ask you for advice, after all, you are experts in this field." ”

I didn't expect Professor Dong to be so polite, which made me a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "Uncle Dong, you are too polite, what do you say!" If there is anything, just tell me. ”

Dong Xiaodan also said on the side: "That's it, Dad!" Why are you still talking to them! Just say it directly. ”

"Hehe, since that's the case, then I'll be blunt. This time we went to Lop Nur to investigate and found something. ”

"What's that?" I asked.

Without saying a word, Professor Dong took out a bulging black plastic sealed bag about a foot square from his carry-on bag. I have seen this kind of plastic sealed bag, which is specially used to hold cultural relics, which is completely opaque and breathable, and the interlayer is a sponge, which can effectively treasure the cultural relics that have just been excavated from the ground or ancient tombs.

"Open it and see what's inside!" Professor Dong smiled and handed me the plastic sealed bag.

"Is it just open?" I was a little surprised, and although I wasn't good at artefacts, I knew that exposing an artefact directly to the air could cause irreversible damage to the artefacts. Professor Dong is an expert in this area, it is impossible not to know this, I thought he was negligent, so I specially confirmed with him.

Professor Dong nodded and said, "Just open it!" ”

Since he was sure that it could be opened directly, I had no scruples, so I opened the plastic sealed bag in my hand, and then looked inside, and found that it seemed to contain a black stone.

"What is this?" I asked, looking up.

"You take it out and take a look!"

I took the thing out of the sealed bag, held it in the palm of my hand and then fixed my eyes, it was really a stone, but this stone is more special, the whole body is jet black, and it gives people a crystal clear feeling, seeing this stone, I first thought of Ejiao made of donkey skin, it is really a little similar, but from its weight and feel, it is basically certain that it is a stone.

The stone was about the size of a palm, so I took it in my hand and asked curiously, "Is this a rough gem?" ”

Professor Dong replied, "To be honest, at first I thought it was a rough black gem because it was 80 percent similar to a black gemstone from Malaysia in terms of appearance. But then I found out that this stone has a strong magnetic field. ”

"This thing also has a strong magnetic field!?" I couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Professor Dong nodded: "I have tested it with a magnetic detector and found that the magnetic field emitted by this stone is very strong, generally speaking, unless it is something with strong energy, it will emit such a strong magnetic field." ”

"And this kind of thing!?" I couldn't believe it, out of curiosity, I immediately went to the side and got the compass, from Feng Shui speaking, the magnetic field is actually a yin and yang aura, so if this stone really has a strong magnetic field, the compass must undergo some unusual changes.

I placed the stone on the coffee table, then placed the compass next to the stone, and when I looked at the needle of the compass, I couldn't help but be surprised, and I saw that the needle on the compass was spinning rapidly.

It's the first time I've encountered this situation, and the cheap guy on the side even exclaimed: "Damn! What kind of stone is this, it makes the compass burst! ”

Not to mention, it's really apt enough to use the word explosive to describe it.

I was worried that the magnetic field emitted by this stone would cause damage to the compass and thus affect the accuracy of the compass, so I hurriedly took the compass aside, raised my head and asked Professor Dong, "Uncle Dong, where did you get this stone?" ”

Professor Dong replied, "Actually, I knocked this stone down from a large stone. ”

"What do you mean?" I was slightly stunned.

"Here's the thing." Professor Dong told me about it.

It turned out that they found an ancient city buried under the yellow sand in Lop Nur, because this ancient city is not far from the ruins of the ancient kingdom of Loulan, only less than 100 kilometers, the cultural relics department believes that it may be a subordinate city of the ancient kingdom of Loulan, and believes that the investigation of this ancient city may be able to uncover the mystery of the sudden disappearance of the ancient kingdom of Loulan. Therefore, a group of well-known domestic archaeological experts were organized to go to Lop Nur for investigation, and Professor Dong was one of them.

During the investigation, they found that in the center of this ancient city, there is a square building shaped like an altar, and around this altar, many bones were also found, and it felt like something unexpected happened when some memorial ceremony was underway. And on this altar, there is a boulder about two meters high, the whole body is black, crystal clear, this boulder does not have any traces of artificial carving, but the stone is quite special, in the local, even the entire Xinjiang region, has not seen that kind of stone, the expedition team was going to study the boulder, but when it was close to the boulder, the expedition team members seemed to be cursed by something, and they fell to the ground one after another, but the strange thing is that only Professor Dong was fine, and Professor Dong didn't care so much at that time, Hurriedly dragged the members of the expedition who had fallen to the ground aside, and took out an awl and knocked a small piece from the boulder.

Later, Tong Guò tested such a small stone and found that it had a very strong magnetic field, which means that the boulder has an unimaginable magnetic field, and it is no wonder that the expedition team members could not get close. The human body is exposed to radiation from a strong magnetic field, which may even be life-threatening. As for why Professor Dong was not affected by the strong magnetic field, it is impossible to explain.

Due to an unexpected incident, in order to ensure the personal safety of the expedition members, the expedition had to be terminated early, and Professor Dong and Dong Xiaodan returned from Xinjiang. However, Professor Dong did not give up, he really wanted to find out what was going on with the boulder, and vaguely felt that it might have something to do with the theory of yin and yang aura, and thought that I was an expert in this area, so he came to me with the stone.

After listening to what Professor Dong said, my curiosity was immediately aroused, and I hurriedly asked, "Do you have any other special discoveries?" ”

Professor Dong replied: "We have excavated many cultural relics there, and based on the cultural relics excavated, it should be an ancient city more than 600 years ago, which is indeed inextricably linked with the ancient city of Loulan." ”

"Is there a record of that black boulder?" I asked again.

Professor Dong shook his head: "That's not true, and I don't know where that black boulder came from." Speaking of this, Professor Dong paused, and said randomly: "It's just that in the hands of a corpse next to the boulder, we found a sheepskin scroll, the sheepskin scroll is full of ancient Western languages, and the back seems to be a map, but because the age is too old, and it has been buried under the yellow sand for many years, the sheepskin scroll is worn quite strictly, and the text and map on it are not very clear, and now professionals are using the latest technology to repair this scroll. I believe it won't take long to complete. ”

"Sheepskin scrolls!? It can't be some kind of treasure map, right!? As soon as he heard that he had found a sheepskin scroll, he suddenly came to his senses.

Professor Dong smiled and said, "It's really possible, and my intuition tells me that there may be some connection between that boulder with a strong magnetic field and that parchment scroll. ”

"You mean that the parchment scroll may have recorded the origin of the boulder?"

Professor Dong nodded, and then asked me, "By the way, I came here to ask you, do you know any natural stones that have a special yin and yang aura?" ”

I thought for a moment, and suddenly I thought of a kind of stone, and immediately raised my head and said, "Hey! Do you think it's a soul stone!? ”

"Soul stones?" Professor Dong was slightly stunned at first, and then patted his head and said, "Why didn't I think of it!" That's right, that boulder might really be a soul stone! ”

As soon as he heard the soul stone, he immediately thought of the soul sarcophagus, and turned to me: "Isn't the coffin found in the ancient tomb next to your school claimed to be made of soul stones!?" ”

I nodded, "That's right!" It is said that the soul stone can capture people's souls, so ordinary people can't get close, and the soul stone is also jet black and crystal clear, judging from these characteristics, I think the black boulder that Uncle Dong said is a soul stone nine times out of ten. ”
