A group of people arrived at the road construction site, and a member of the team began to brief Fu Zhongyi on yesterday's work.

Fu Zhongyi probed left and left around the area where the fragments of the Buddha statue had been excavated, constantly taking soil samples, and his face became solemn as time passed.

After a while, Fu Zhongyi called Lu Kun and asked; "There's a village around here, isn't it?"

Lu Kunying: "Hmm. ”

Fu Zhong Yi said: "In this way, you and Xu Bai go to the village to ask the elderly people. Ask them if they have seen or heard from the elders about the collapsed stupa in the past. ”

As soon as these words came out, many people in the team were shocked.

Someone's eyes widened: "Mentor, stupa? Isn't this mound ......?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out. ”

While almost everyone was shocked, Xu Bai was particularly calm.

And Lu Kun, who was standing beside her, was full of Xu Bai's figure in his dark eyes.

After an extremely brief period of distraction, Lu Kun said, "I see. ”

Together, they went to a village two kilometers away.

This village is very small, and I know that it may not be called a village according to modern planning. It's just that some old people may have lived there all their lives and are unwilling to leave.

The road in the village is dirt, but the road has been hard and solid due to years of trampling, and as long as it does not rain, it is almost as hard as a road for oil parking.

Xu Bai and Lu Kun walked side by side, and not long after entering the village, they saw an old man sitting at the door smoking a cigarette.

His skin is severely wrinkled, his neck and hands are unsightly protrusions, and he looks like a ten-year-old man.

"Let's ask." Xu Bai took Lu Kun's hand.

He looked down at the hand-holding action, and was silently pulled by her.

Xu Bai's footsteps stopped in front of the old man.

She let go of Lu Kun's hand and squatted in front of the old man: "Grandpa, can I ask you something?" ”

The old man looked at Xu Bai blankly, then pointed to his ear, smiled, and waved his hand with his only remaining tooth.

Xu Bai nodded, stood up in disbelief and said to Lu Kun: "This grandfather is old, and his ears can't hear. ”

Lu Kun said with a poisonous tongue: "I'm not blind, I understand." ”

Xu Bai glanced at him and continued to walk forward.

This time, she didn't pull Lu Kun's hand again, and walked fast.

Seeing this, Lu Kun unconsciously hooked his lips and followed behind her.

After another short while, Xu Bai discovered a new target.

An old woman who was drying herbs was spreading the herbs neatly, and her spirit was very good.

Xu Bai muttered: "This is reliable." ”

She quickened her pace and shouted politely, "Grandma, can I ask you something?" ”

The grandmother with a silver hair looked at Xu Bai, then at Lu Kun, and asked a little vigilantly, "What do you inquire?" ”

Xu Bai said: "There is a place to build a road two kilometers away. ”

"I heard."

Xu Bai asked again: "That's the case, I want to ask if there have been any towers that have collapsed before when the road is going to be built?" ”

The old grandmother said: "When my grandfather was alive, he would talk about it as if there was a tower before, but it fell before the Anti-Japanese War, and it was a small tower, not high." ”

Xu Bai's eyes lit up: "Grandma, do you know how many years has it been that collapsed tower?" ”

Grandma thought for a while: "I don't know how many years, anyway, it's been a long, long time." ”

Xu Bai was excited in his heart at this moment.

She wanted to prove that she was more than just a vase.

So after listening to these words, he kept bowing to the old man to express his gratitude.

Lu Kun saw everything in his eyes, and an inexplicable emotion arose in his heart.

Because she loves someone, she works so hard to stay in the house for a long time, and she works so hard to please the person she loves.

Lu Kun stroked his head.

Although he didn't know if this passion belonged to him now, many doubts that had been overturned slowly sprouted in his heart again.

The two of them asked some other old people in the village, but apart from the old woman, the other old people had never even heard of any towers in the vicinity.

And this just proves that the small stupa that has long been forgotten may have a long history.

After getting this information, Xu Bai and Lu Kun rushed back to the team.

At this time, Fu Zhongyi was also in the process of exploration, and he became more and more curious about this land.

Xu Bai conveyed the news he had heard to Fu Zhongyi.

Fu Zhongyi frowned and stared at Xu Bai, realizing for the first time that this girl was not simple.

In the evening, Fu Zhongyi said: "Lu Kun, you and Xu Bai will stay on the spot to take care of it, and I will lead the team to go back and continue to check the information, see if there are any missing clues, and bring everyone over tomorrow morning." This trip came suddenly, and some of the more professional tools were not brought, if there was a tower here, then it is estimated that a cross probe will be dug at the mound. ”

Lu Kun said, "Okay. ”

The group took down a tent from the car, left some necessities, and helped them set up the tent before leaving with the car.

Xu Bai, who used to dislike living in a tent, is secretly having fun today.

"Don't think I don't know what you're happy about." Lu Kun's voice came out of his ears.

"Then you say, what am I happy about?"

Lu Kun had a gloomy face: "You want to sleep with me." ”

Xu Bai was guessed by Xiao Jiujiu in his heart and covered his face.

Lu Kun glanced at her, sat on the ground outside the tent, spread his legs, and looked into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

For dinner, they solved it very simply, a few packets of compressed biscuits, and a bottle of water fooled it over.

There is no toilet here, there is an unobstructed view, Xu Bai was worried that he would be embarrassed to see the toilet, and he didn't even drink a few sips of water.

At seven o'clock in the evening, a man and a woman in the tent stared at each other, and the atmosphere was quite strange and awkward.

"It's boring." Lu Kun said.

Xu Bai nodded: "It's boring, why don't you take a walk around." ”

Lu Kun raised his eyes: "The weather is too hot, and there are many mosquitoes outside." ”

“……”

It's getting hotter and hotter, and in a little while it's time for the hottest part of summer.

There was no electricity in the tent, let alone a fan to sleep at night.

After a while, Lu Kun was uncomfortably hot, and his hands pinched the edge of the T-shirt and flipped it up, like a male animal that had been half-skinned, revealing his perfect body that was usually hidden under his clothes.

Xu Bai stared closely, and his eyes were naturally quickly discovered by Lu Kun.

He ignored her, loosened his belt a little, lay down on the tatami mat, downloaded the archaeology textbook from the website, and continued to study the place he had read in the morning, without squeaking again for a long time.

Xu Bai was hot and stuffy, almost bored.

She stared at Lu Kun and said, "Talk to me." ”

Lu Kun's dark eyes moved up from the mobile phone screen and said, "Don't you like to squat on the mound, go out and squat, I won't stop you." ”

Xu Bai said: "Last night, the meat on my body was almost removed by mosquitoes, and it was itchy today." ”

As soon as Lu Kun heard this, he pressed the phone screen.

"Say what?"

Xu Bai didn't react for a while: "Huh? I said mosquitoes ......"

Lu Kun interrupted her: "You just asked me to talk to you, what do you want me to say?" ”

Xu Bai said: "It's so far away, you have to raise your voice when you speak." If you don't talk about it, just let me die of boredom. ”

Lu Kun was silent for a while, and then hooked his finger at her: "The tent is so big, you are still too far away." Come over then. ”

Xu Bai met his eyes, and realized that Lu Kun's words were quite low and gentle.

She walked to the edge of the collapse and sat down, folded her little arms together, pressed them against Lu Kun's chest and said, "When I was in the bus today...... You...... Target...... Hand ......"

Lu Kun let out a chuckle: "What's wrong with your hand?" Stopped you from committing a foul? ”

Xu Bai's face moved closer again, and the arm against his chest also moved to his collarbone: "Just stop it?" Yes? Well? Uh-huh? ”

Lu Kun didn't say anything, and looked at her with his eyebrows tightened.

Probably because of the hot weather and the pressure on his chest by this thing, Lu Kun's breathing was a little short.

He changed the subject: "Are you hot?" ”

Xu Bai said: "It's hot." ”

Lu Kun was silent again.

The atmosphere seemed a little weirder and more ambiguous.

"Get up." Lu Kun said: "You rely on me as if you have a quilt on you." ”

"Oh." Xu Bai himself is also hot, and he really shouldn't lie on him.

She bent her arms to support the couch, and before she could straighten her back, Lu Kun suddenly saw a mosquito that had absconded flying past the back of Xu Bai's head, and he subconsciously reached out to grab it, but collided with the back of Xu Bai's head.

Xu Bai fell down and touched Lu Kun's lips.

Without any defense, Lu Kun's lips were gently gnawed by Xu Bai.
