Chapter 1 Ruins

Next Chapter

Reckless Kunlun, the mountains are continuous, although it is still September, it is already snowing here, in a valley, the cliffs are like the sheep fat jade, the cliffs are carved with fonts, only there is a gap in the southeast direction. Through the gap, you can see the lush woods beyond the valley. There was a group of people in the valley who were nervously busy, the older ones were fifty or sixty, and the few were only seventeen or eighteen, all of them were seriously bending over the ground and picking up stones.

Suddenly, two people appeared in the gap, a big man from an ethnic minority and a young Han guy, both of whom were carrying a huge backpack. Those who bent down to pick up looked up, and some young people shouted: "Uncle Aliman, is there any news?" and "Zhang Yuan has brought something delicious!"

"Fatty, just remember to eat, look at your body shape, in this wild archaeology, you are a sinner!" Aliman did not answer, Zhang Yuan was very cheerful and joked with those young people. "Where's the professor! We're in a hurry to talk to his old man!"

A tent not far away was lifted, and a round-faced girl shouted, "Zhang Yuan, Uncle Aliman, the professor is here." When she entered the door, the girl grabbed Zhang Yuan's hand and asked in a low voice, "Is this way okay?" Zhang Yuan gently took out his hand, tightened the backpack on his back and walked into the tent: "Thank you, Senior Sister An, the journey is good, Uncle is very familiar with the road." The round-faced girl turned and walked out of the tent.

The inside of the tent was full of wooden countertops, and the professor in Zhang Yuan's mouth was lying on the bed at the moment, his eyes slightly closed, his cheeks sunken, and his lips white. When Zhang Yuan saw the professor like this, he hurriedly took two steps forward and grabbed the professor's hand: "Teacher, what's wrong with you?"

The professor opened his eyes, saw Zhang Yuan, and hurriedly struggled to sit up: "Have you brought all the rubbings over there in Luoshui?" Zhang Yuan hurriedly helped the professor, and at this time, the round-faced girl also came in with a kettle, and was busy pouring water for the professor and Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan drank saliva: "The rubbings have been brought, I have seen it, these two fonts are the same, and they should be the same culture." As he spoke, he opened his backpack and took out a rubbing sheet inside and handed it to the professor, and asked, "Teacher, what's wrong with you, wasn't it okay when I went out?"

The professor took the rubbing and laughed self-deprecatingly: "Alas, I'm old, as soon as the temperature drops, it won't work, this is really the same font," the professor took the rubbing and immersed himself. "Teacher, there is another piece of news, it is a blizzard warning issued by the meteorological station, and Uncle Aliman also said that there may be heavy snow on this side soon, and we must withdraw as soon as possible. ”

The practical question brought the professor back to his senses, and he thought for a while: "How big is this recent heavy snowfall, and how long can we stay?" Zhang Yuan could only look at Aliman, who thought for a while and said: "Professor Tian's snow in the first two days is not small, and it is estimated that this one will only be bigger, so I still suggest that the professor go out of the mountain as soon as possible." ”

Senior Sister An also persuaded: "Teacher, we have already expanded the words on this cliff, you can go out of the mountain and study it slowly, if not, you can continue to come back next year." "Yes, teacher, this handwriting has been here for so long, it's not bad for us for a few months, you are not in good health now, why don't you go back to Beijing to recuperate, and it's not too late to come back next year?" Zhang Yuan advised.

The professor waved his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, needless to say, I will listen to you, so An Jing, you inform everyone to pack up their things, and we will go out of the valley tomorrow, don't say the same as Huang Shiren, Zhang Yuan, you will accompany me to sort out these rubbings here." An Jing immediately spread the news of going out of the mountain, and naturally there was jubilation.

All the way to the mountain on horseback, donkey carts, and buses turned around for a few days, and when he arrived in Hotan, Professor Tian used his identity to adjust a sleeper, and told the conductor not to disturb him, and as soon as the car door closed, Professor Tian called several students over: "Have you considered the origin of this site in the past few days?"

An Jing glanced at a few classmates who were still pondering: "Teacher, you usually teach us that archaeology is a serious matter, and we must be careful to verify it, although the Kunlun site is related to the Luoshui site, but the word has not been cracked, I can't draw conclusions." ”

"It's all well and good to be careful, but sometimes it's important to make bold assumptions. Professor Tian smiled and nodded, and then looked at Zhang Yuan: "Do you still think this is an ancient civilization?"

"Yes, teacher, it may still be a bit far-fetched to simply say that the Luoshui ruins, but the Kunlun ruins confirm my guess even more, the same font and the same jade, this must be the same civilization, and all the myths of our country have Kunlun descriptions..."

Professor Tian looked at the other students: "Li Qi, do you still insist on alien civilization?" Without waiting for the fat man to speak, Professor Tian continued. In fact, whether it is an alien civilization or an ancient civilization on the earth, this is definitely a civilization beyond what we can imagine, the jade of the Luoshui ruins, how much effort we have spent has not been able to pick a little powder to study, but the jade of the Kunlun ruins has cracked such a big gap, what does this mean, it shows that this civilization has been hit by unimaginable external forces, and then think about the extinction of the dinosaurs, civilization is constantly disappearing, how long can our human civilization exist?" Professor Tian suddenly felt a little lonely here, and waved his hand: "You all go and have a good rest!"

Out of Beijing Station, Zhang Yuan looked at the square where people came and went, thought of the recklessness and loneliness of Kunlun Mountain, and suddenly felt that this life was slim, and he actually had the idea of hiding Kunlun. Suddenly felt that someone pulled him, Zhang Yuan looked sideways, it was Senior Sister An who was pulling herself: "The teacher asked you?"

Zhang Yuan scratched his head embarrassedly: "What's the matter with the teacher?" "Are you going back to school with us first or transferring directly to Hangzhou here, I've also delayed you a lot!" Professor Tian said apologetically.

"Teacher, don't say that, this is because you gave me the opportunity to participate in such a project, I should just transfer here to Hangzhou!" Zhang Yuan's thoughts suddenly pulled back to reality from Kunlun Mountain.

Professor Tian nodded, and said with some seriousness: "I also know about your family situation, your uncle has gone too far, but after all, he is your elder and your only relative in this world, I hope you still save some face for him." ”

"I see, I'll think about it. ”

An Jing suddenly stepped forward and hugged Zhang Yuan, and said in his ear: "Senior sister, I wish you a happy marriage in advance, don't tell me again when you get married." Sideways and kissed him lightly on the face, without waiting for Zhang Yuan to react, An Jing let go of him, turned around and ran away, Zhang Yuan clearly saw An Jing's tears, touched the place where An Jing kissed lightly, Zhang Yuan smiled at Professor Tian a little embarrassed.

Professor Tian is very clear about the thoughts of his two students, but one is intentional, and the other is ruthless, and he can't force a match.

On the train to the south, Zhang Yuan lay on the sleeper and touched a small stone ball on his chest in a daze, this small stone ball is the only relic left to him by his parents, after going back this time, he is going to get married, and inherit his parents' company, his parents are a successful entrepreneur, run a large company, I don't know when I liked the adventure, in a Shennongjia expedition, Zhang Yuan's parents died unexpectedly, and only his uncle came back.

Uncle successfully managed the company as Zhang Yuan's guardian, and his attitude towards Zhang Yuan also changed dramatically, and this archaeology was also arranged by his uncle, for a very high-sounding reason, you have to find out the site where your parents caused your parents to die. He also set a lot of conditions such as going to graduate school, not getting married, not being able to inherit the company, etc., and gave him only the kind of living expenses that ensured that he would not starve to death, except for the small stone ball, and the reason: boys should be poor.

It's okay to study, this marriage requires a lot of money in today's society, thinking about Senior Sister An's affection for herself, Zhang Yuan also shook her head for a while, she just thought she was her sister. Zhang Yuan thought of his girlfriend, a big beauty in Chinese opera, who captured the heart of a beauty in a heroic rescue of the United States, and thought that he was about to get married, Zhang Yuan's heart was restless.

Thinking about it, the sound of the rhythm of the train brought him into the Luoshui ruins, a half-collapsed mountain exposed a sheep's fat jade-like cliff, the mountain was carved with fonts, and it shook for a while, and came to the Kunlun Valley with cliffs on all sides, Zhang Yuan heard a voice from the mountain: "You are finally here...."

Just when Zhang Yuan listened to the voice and was about to enter the cliff, "Young man, Hangzhou is almost here and ready to get off" Zhang Yuan woke up suddenly, his eyes were still confused, and he thought to himself so quickly, I seemed to have a dream.

The Qiantang River was crowded with people who came to see the tide of August 15, Zhang Yuan, who grew up by the river since he was a child, naturally didn't care about these, and walked through the dense crowd to the front of a villa, which was left by Zhang Yuan's parents, he was the nominal owner, opened the door of the villa, Zhang Yuan saw his uncle's shoes and a pair of crooked female high heels, and couldn't help but feel a little tired, this uncle brought a woman to the house to mess around.

Zhang Yuan didn't want to care about his crooked things, thinking about going back to the room to charge his phone and notify his girlfriend, and went up to the second floor, Zhang Yuan saw that his uncle's door was open, Zhang Yuan wanted to go over lightly, but suddenly he was stunned, and he heard his girlfriend's voice clearly.

"When will your nephew come back, how long will I have to stay with him?

"Little baby, don't bother, the plan is going well, you just accompany him to get married, and when he dies, the whole company will be ours." ”

Standing outside the door with a blank slate, Zhang Yuan felt that everything around him was unfamiliar, and a stream of blood rushed up.

He staggered to the kitchen, took a fruit knife, and then walked into the room, looked at the two without saying a word, and his uncle stammered: "Zhang Yuan, listen to me, she seduced me..."

"Fuck off, old and immortal, don't you dare to say that you designed that hero to save beauty? What are you afraid of him, a poor boy who has nothing..."

Zhang Yuan looked at her blankly, and suddenly burst out, and the fruit knife in his hand was fiercely inserted into his girlfriend's chest.

She looked at the knife on her stomach in disbelief, Zhang Yuan had always been obedient in front of her, never dared to speak loudly, and wanted to say something when she opened her mouth, but only a mouthful of blood flowed out.

"You've killed someone, you're dead...."

Zhang Yuan heard his uncle's duck-like voice, his heart was extremely bored, and the knife in his hand slashed out again, like a lightning bolt, and the voice stopped abruptly.

Zhang Yuan turned around and walked out of the room, not looking at the two people who fell in a pool of blood, his heart felt as if he had been pierced by thousands of sharp knives, making him feel that life was worse than death.

Out of the villa gate, Zhang Yuan came to the river with the crowd in a daze, at this time it was the beginning of the tide, Zhang Yuan saw a white line flashing on the river, accompanied by a rumbling sound, the tide from far and near, galloping, the tide pushed, the sound was like thunder, in an instant, the tide peak towered a water wall three or four meters high standing upright on the river surface, spraying beads and splashing jade, like ten thousand horses galloping.

Zhang Yuan looked at the power of heaven and earth, thinking that it was a good thing for him to die in the river, so he no longer hesitated at the moment, resolutely climbed over the guardrail, and rushed straight into the surging river in the surprise of everyone.

As soon as he entered the river, Zhang Yuan only felt a strong attack, and fainted instantly, but he didn't see a layer of gray light on his body protecting himself from sinking to the bottom of the river, and the tide that turned back quickly brought him to the depths of the sea.
