After Zhuang Yunpeng found the jade, it was like a chain reaction.

In the following days, Chen Han and Su Sa also began to explore the F4 side one after another, and successively discovered countless pottery, stones, bones, jade and jade materials.

Combined, there are about sixty artifacts excavated.

In addition to this, they were also completely sure that Probe F4 was indeed a housing site.

Because with the deepening of the excavation progress, Chen Han found traces of plastered white plaster surfaces on the four walls and ground of the F4 exploration building.

Even on the living surface of the house, traces of fire roasting were found.

These two points are enough to prove that the F4 probe is indeed a ruin of a house.

Because plastering plastered surfaces and roasting them with fire were both means used by Neolithic ancestors to dehumidify their houses.

By doing so, the house will dry out, making it more comfortable to live in and less likely to leak in the rain.

However, this discovery is no longer very important to Chen Han and others.

Because they have an even more important archaeological find!

In a whole month and a half of archaeological work.

Except for the first half month, they were busy excavating the unearthed pottery, stone, jade, and utensils.

For the next month, they were all busy cleaning up the bones!

In the inconspicuous exploration of F4, including the skeleton of the young woman, Chen Han and others found 14 skeletons in front and back!

The presence of 14 skeletons in a site no more than five meters long and wide is clearly not a normal situation.

Or even a situation where there is no way to explain it simply!

After making sure that the bones in the entire exploration party had been cleaned out and there were no omissions, Chen Han found his teacher as soon as possible.

After Kong Wenjian heard the news, he rushed to the F4 probe at the No. 1 construction site with a large number of people.

Qinghai Institute of Archaeology, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Institute of Archaeology, Henan Institute of Archaeology, and the Archaeological Team of the National Museum......

But all the archaeological teams that came to the Lajia site to support all sent people to follow Kong Wenjian to join in the excitement.

The staff who are specially responsible for archaeological records, holding long guns and short cannons, are seriously shooting the large and small bones unearthed in the exploration party.

Kong Wenjian couldn't wait to get out of the probe and went straight to the many bones in the probe.

"It's all cleaned up?"

"Fourteen in total?"

Chen Han and Zhuang Yunpeng followed him quickly, and said in a somewhat heavy tone: "It's all cleared up, the situation is very complicated." ”

Complicated?

Kong Wenjian turned his head and glanced at Chen Han, and some of the words that were originally about to blurt out were taken back by him.

Let's see what happens.

He and the leaders of several other archaeological institutes carefully looked at the situation in the exploration square.

Chen Han, who was on the side, also explained in a timely manner: "The bones unearthed in the F4 site are very different from the previous archaeological discoveries. ”

"The fourteen skeletons in the exploration party, some of them were lying on their sides with bent limbs, some were prostrate on the ground, some were implicated in their upper limbs, and some were kneeling on the ground, with different postures, presenting a complex situation."

"It seems to be the state of sudden and irresistible disaster, and death in an instant."

Chen Han led the leaders of various archaeological institutes and archaeological teams to the first skeleton unearthed by the F4 exploration party, that is, the one where the young woman and the child were stacked together.

"Look, teacher."

Pointing to the skeleton leaning against the corner, Chen Han said in a heavy tone: "This mother is kneeling on the ground with her young child in her arms, and the child and the mother's head are nestled against each other. ”

"The mother hugged the child tightly, and the child's head was buried deep in the mother's chest."

"It's a picture of helplessness and fear when disaster strikes suddenly."

In fact, there was no need for Chen Han to introduce too much, when they saw the skeleton in the corner, they already understood everything.

Even though 4,000 years have passed, this mother's helplessness, panic, and begging for help from God when the disaster suddenly struck, is still vivid and moving.

It's not just her.

About a meter to the left of this skeleton, another skeleton is even more moving.

A mother is on her knees with her legs on the ground, protecting her baby with her body.

The baby in her arms is holding her mother's waist with her hands, her face facing upwards and her jaw stretched forward, as if she was still looking up and praying to the heavens to give the young child a way to live.

Just from the movement of her body, it seemed that she could hear the voice of helpless prayer to heaven.

In addition, in the southeast corner of the site, there is the skeleton of a family of four, all of whom are also curled up in a corner.

The outermost skeleton appears to be wide-limbed, and it is clear that it should be male.

In its bosom there was also a slightly smaller female skeleton, presumably his wife.

In his wife's arms were the bones of two children.

It is worth mentioning that even after so much time, only bones remain of the corpse, but the man's facial expression is still clearly recognizable.

He opened his mouth wide and seemed to let out a series of piercing screams, as if he was roaring at the heavens, roaring and questioning the heavens why they did this to him.

Similarly, at the base of the north wall of the site, there was a skeleton lying on the ground with its arms outstretched.

And underneath her body, the bones of three children were pressed.

This is another mother who protects her child under her body.

What they have been through, it is impossible to imagine.

I can't imagine how panicked they must have been at that time!

However, what is even more brutal.

These mothers and fathers who tried to use their bodies to support themselves and leave some hope for their children to shelter, even if they tried their best to live, they could only let the children around them survive for a few more moments.

Six adults, eight young children, a family of all ages, mothers protecting children, relatives hugging each other, no one survived!

But in the face of this sudden unknown disaster, the scene of trying his life to save the child for the first time made people extremely moved and sighed.

All the archaeologists, scholars, and researchers present all became silent after seeing the tragic situation in the F4 detective, and they were deeply impressed by this maternal love that transcended time and space.

Perhaps, in the eyes of modern people, these people are just a group of backward and ignorant "primitive people" who lived 4,000 years ago.

But the kind of maternal love that they showed from ancient times to the present deeply shocked everyone.

From burial to excavation, a full 4,000 years have passed.

Four thousand years have passed, and the sea has become a mulberry field.

But these ancestors who once ran on the land 4,000 years ago, with the same blood and culture as us.

But at the last moment of his life, he used his last instinct to tell us about the maternal love that has not changed for thousands of years!

This love has penetrated time, life and death, and the times, and it is still unchanged!
