Because I didn't sleep all night and spent a lot of physical energy in the ancient tomb, I fell asleep groggily when I waited for Xiao Liang to come back.

I don't know how long I slept, and by the time I opened my eyes, it was already dark.

Xiao Liang sat next to me, looking at me with blank eyes, and when she saw me wake up, she hurriedly said, "Are you awake?" Eat the noodles quickly, and it will be cold in a while. ”

I took a look and saw that the noodles next to my hospital bed were still steaming, and I couldn't help but ask, "How long have I been asleep?" Why is the noodles still hot? ”

Thinking about it again, no, when Xiao Liang went to buy noodles, the sky was still bright, and now it's dark, how can this noodles not be cold for so long?

At this time, Xiao Liang said with a smile: "You have slept for more than seven hours, this noodle is a new one I went out to buy for you just now, hurry up and eat, and then continue to rest when you are full." ”

It dawned on me that in order to make me eat hot noodles, Xiao Liang actually ran back and forth twice.

I smiled at her embarrassedly and whispered, "I'm sorry for your hard work." ”

Xiao Liang shook his head and said: "I'm nothing, you worked hard, you died nine times in the ancient tomb, and you suffered so many injuries." Let's eat noodles. ”

After that, help me set up the small table on the hospital bed and bring me noodles.

I haven't eaten for a day and a night, and I'm so hungry that my chest is pressed against my back, and when I smell the aroma of beef noodles, my saliva runs down my mouth.

After eating two bites of noodles, I suddenly thought of Uncle Mei, and when I looked back, I saw that Uncle Mei was still sleeping soundly in the hospital bed, and in the trash can next to the bed were two empty disposable plastic bowls.

Xiao Liang told me with a smile: "Uncle Mei woke up earlier than you, I saw that you were sleeping soundly at the time, and I couldn't bear to wake you up, so I asked Uncle Mei to eat your previous portion of noodles, anyway, if he doesn't eat it, it will be cold, it's a waste." ”

I smiled and nodded, "I didn't expect Uncle Mei to have a good appetite." ”

After eating the noodles, Xiao Liang helped me clean up the garbage and asked me if I wanted to continue sleeping.

I slept for seven hours in the afternoon, and I was no longer sleepy, and I shook my head and said that I was very awake now and didn't want to sleep.

Xiao Liang smiled and said: "That's right, then you tell me the story of the tomb, what is the ancient Shu tomb under the Duck River?" What is the difference with the previous tomb in Tuojiang? ”

I knew that she loved to listen to stories, so I started when we went to find Sister Hong, and retold her the story of going to the grave little by little.

Xiao Liang carried a chair and sat on the edge of my bed, lying on the hospital bed, listening carefully, just like a good student who listened carefully to the lectures when he was in school.

talked about the grievances and hatred between Lao Wu and Professor Xu, and when Professor Xu successfully killed Lao Wu in the end, Xiao Liang also applauded.

When he crossed the river and encountered a piranha and climbed a tree and encountered a red viper, Xiao Liang was scared into a cold sweat.

Halfway through the story, I asked Xiao Liang curiously: "By the way, Xiao Liang, you are a college student, let me ask you, why are there piranhas in the ancient Shu tomb?" I heard Professor Xu say that only South America has piranhas on the whole planet. ”

Xiao Liang frowned and said, "Professor Xu doesn't know about a university professor, how can I, an ordinary college student, know?" ”

But she thought about it for a while, and suddenly asked, "By the way, I heard you say that the water temperature of the underground river seems to be higher than that of the Duck River, just like a hot spring?" ”

I nodded, "yes." ”

Xiao Liang guessed: "Then I think, could it be that the climate in the Yahe River Basin four thousand years ago was warmer than now, similar to the climate in South America, and it was suitable for piranhas, but later the climate changed, and the piranhas in this area became extinct?" And then some piranhas migrated to underground rivers with the change of the earth's crust, and this has survived to this day? ”

I thought about it and thought she had a point.

But that's not necessarily the truth.

After that, I went on to tell the story of the tomb, and talked about the ancient Shu king who used the trunk as a coffin and the bark as a coffin, buried himself in the tree, and told Xiaoliang that this tomb, as well as the ancient Shu tomb in Tuojiang, are the tombs of King Baiguan, and "Baiguan" is not the name of a Shu king, but a dynasty, or a general name of the tribe.

I thought that Xiao Liang would be shocked when she heard this analysis, and I was ready to see her frightened appearance.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Liang was not surprised at all, but said to me excitedly: "That's right, I have also seen this theory, saying that the names of silkworm cong, fish and baiguan are not the names of the king of Shu, but the names of a tribe." The Silkworm Cong tribe was founded by the descendants of the Yellow Emperor, who were brave and good at war, and fought against the Shang Dynasty for many years; The Baiguan tribe was separated from the silkworm tribe, and they did not want war and longed for peace, so they migrated to the south of Shu; The Fishermen and the Baiguan tribe were two separate tribes, and they also fought a war that lasted for many years, and the end result was that the Yuguan tribe won and annexed the Baiguan tribe......"

I was directly stupid by Xiao Liang's words, and looked at her dumbfounded.

Originally, I learned some knowledge from the shopkeeper Wang, and I wanted to show off in front of Xiaoliang, but she taught me a lesson, it seems that she is a real scholar, and I am just a pseudo-scholar.

At this time, Xiao Liang said again: "Well, I heard that the totems of the Baiguan tribe are trees and white cranes, judging from the cultural relics found in this ancient tomb, the owner of this mausoleum must be the leader of the Baiguan tribe, or it can also be called the king of Baiguan." ”

I was completely impressed by Xiao Liang's knowledge, and said with a wry smile: "I really should take you to the tomb together, so that many mysteries can be solved, like me and Uncle Mei, two illiterate people, who are rampage in the tomb like a reckless man." ”

Xiao Liang hurriedly said: "Don't say that, you two are also very powerful, if it weren't for your good water nature, it is estimated that this group of tomb robbers would be wiped out." ”

That's right, if it weren't for Sister Hong inviting me and Uncle Mei to go down, Shopkeeper Wang would definitely die in the ancient tomb this time, and not a single brother would have thought of coming out alive.

After that, I told Xiao Liang the rest of the story, and when I found Sister Xiaomei's sweatshirt in the "dormitory" next to the thief cave, Xiao Liang was also very excited.

She encouraged me vigorously, saying that Sister Xiaomei must still be alive, and I will find her soon.

With Xiaoliang's encouragement, I am also a lot more optimistic.

The two of us talked until one o'clock in the middle of the night, and finally I lay on the hospital bed and fell asleep groggily, Xiao Liang did not leave the ward all night, just lay on the side of the bed to accompany me.

Early the next morning, Jiang Yongguang came to the ward to visit, Uncle Mei woke up early, chatted with Jiang Yongguang, and Xiao Liang and I both woke up as soon as we heard the voices of the two of them talking.

Although he knew that Shopkeeper Wang and Sister Xiaomei and Aunt Mei probably had nothing to do with them, there were still a few mysteries on him that had not been solved.

Uncle Mei couldn't wait to ask Jiang Yongguang: "How is it?" Does the shopkeeper cooperate? What information has not been found? ”
