Who wrote "Shangshu Yugong" is no longer certain.

Previous scholars thought that "Yu Gong" was the work of the Xia Dynasty historians and even Dayu himself.

But now it has been denied by the academic circles, and it is basically believed that it is an article from the Warring States period in the later generations, and it was written by the Wei people during the Warring States period.

And what about the content of "Yu Gong"?

To put it simply, it is a book in the tone of "Dayu" on how to govern the world's mountains and rivers.

It talks about how to dredge the Yellow River, starting from a place called Jishi and ending with dredging into the sea.

Since the person who wrote this article was from the Warring States Period, he obviously had no way of knowing how Dayu governed the water back then.

However, the method he proposed to comb the Yellow River also happened to start from the stones and end into the sea.

Before the appearance of the Lajia ruins, this matter could be dismissed.

But now it is determined that 4,000 years ago, there was an unprecedented flood on this side of Jishi Gorge, and the time is very close to the legendary age of Dayu.

Then, the truth of the matter began to be confusing again.

Whether, in the Warring States Period, there is still a detailed history of Dayu's water control?

So this Wei native was able to spy on the flood in the Dayu period and wrote this diversion plan?

Perhaps, during the Warring States Period, there were still some experiences of Dayu when he controlled the water, and the author of Wei just sorted it into "Yu Gong", so he called himself "Dayu"?

Or is this "Yu Gong" really just a coincidence, which happens to mention Jishi Mountain, the source of the flood outbreak?

Nowadays, people have no way of knowing the truth of history.

After Kong Wenjian brought up "Yu Gong", the three senior researchers, who were at least professor-level, fell silent.

Thousands of thoughts floated through everyone's heart, but they were all pressed in their hearts.

Saying a thousand words and ten thousand, it is still too lacking in empirical evidence!

If it can really be proved that the great flood that occurred 4,000 years ago is really the great flood of Dayuzhi.

Then Dayu's water control will become a real history, no longer just an ethereal legend.

That Dayu is real, and his son Qi can also be determined.

Extending further, the first feudal dynasty in China, "Xia", is no longer a legend without sufficient evidence to prove, but has become a truly unquestionable history of faith.

As long as it can be proved that Dayu does exist, the Xia Dynasty will become the real history that can be confirmed.

As for the three emperors and five emperors above Dayu, that is not something that current scholars can consider.

After a brief discussion, Li Chunchao and Kong Wenjian left the geological working group with their own chaotic thoughts.

Although it is said that during this trip, they solved the cause of the destruction of the Lajia ruins.

But that didn't give them the feeling of seeing the sun through the fog.

Instead, a larger fog rose in my heart.

Is this prehistoric flood related to Dayu's flood control?

If it is really related, will the Xia Dynasty be postponed by 170 years?

If the starting age of the Xia Dynasty is postponed, how can the subsequent Shang and Zhou dynasties be affected?

All kinds of problems made both of their heads bigger.

However, the discovery of this flood is still very important.

After returning to the residency of the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Kong Wenjian gathered everyone and informed everyone of the research of the geological working group.

Sure enough, it caused an exclamation.

Chen Han, who was struggling with how to reproduce the bowl of millet noodles, also put this problem behind him for the time being, and excitedly discussed this prehistoric flood with Zhuang Yunpeng and them.

Not surprisingly, everyone associated it with Dayu's water control, and they agreed with Zhang Cheng's speculation.

Although there is no way to produce conclusive evidence at once, it is obviously a direction that deserves in-depth study.

Now that this prehistoric flood has been determined.

The archaeologists of China can cooperate with geologists to carry out a series of scientific research around this great flood.

Not to mention anything else, just focus on the time node of 1900 B.C., as well as the scope of the flood outbreak, and conduct targeted archaeological research, maybe you can find some traces of Dayu's flood control before 1900!

In case, in the strata of a certain section of the river from 1900 BC, some tools or ruins for water control are found.

Perhaps the legend of Dayu's control of the water will become a conclusive historical fact!

It's just going to be a lot of work and a lot of money.

Because of an ethereal prehistoric flood, it is not realistic to start such a large project.

"About the occurrence of this great flood, and whether there is a connection with Dayu's water control."

"If anyone is interested, you can go to the geological working group to ask for some research data, and then write relevant papers and submit them to domestic journals."

Kong Wenjian sighed and ended this topic that was full of doubts and would be difficult to give a conclusive result for a while.

Now the most important thing for the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences is to turn the bowl of millet noodles found by Chen Han from 4,000 years ago from suspected to conclusive.

This is a major event that can completely rewrite the history of the origin of noodles in the world!

He raised his head and looked at Chen Han, who was still whispering and chatting with Zhuang Yunpeng about the flood, and asked lightly, "Xiao Chen! ”

"Your group's reproduction of millet noodles, how is it going, has it achieved results?"

Kong Wenjian asked, and everyone present looked at Chen Han.

After Kong Wenjian handed over this topic to Chen Han, everyone was actually not optimistic that Chen Han and the other young people would be able to handle this course.

It's just that Kong Wenjian is exercising young people.

So they all looked at Chen Han and the others with a smile on their faces, ready to watch their frustrated show.

And that's exactly what happened.

Facing everyone's ridiculous eyes, Chen Han stood up with a bitter face and said embarrassedly: "Teacher... That..."

"We have tried the suo cakes mentioned in "Shi Ming", although we can roll out millet noodles, but in the process of cooking, they will all break."

"Give us a little more time..."

"Since the ancestors of the Lajia family can do it, it must mean that there is a way, and we are looking for a suitable method from the existing noodle making process and trying it."

Professor Li, who was in charge of the Qin and Han Research Office of the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, laughed, waved his hand and said, "Xiao Chen! ”

"I've actually been following your group lately, and I think there's a point where you might be going in the wrong direction."

"You have to be clear about one thing, the ancestors of the Lajia family made this bowl of noodles four thousand years ago."

"Do you think that 4,000 years ago they were able to grind millet as fine as modern millet flour?"

"Can their shelling methods be cleaner than modern industrial machines?"

"I don't know if the rest of the experiment was correct, but one thing I'm sure of is that it's absolutely not right for you to use ready-made millet flour."

"Perhaps, you should try the original, unshelled millet, handmade from the first step!"

"From the perspective of the ancestors 4,000 years ago, think about how they relied on a pile of stone tools to make millet noodles."
