643 I have found my ancestor
As soon as they entered the vent of this underground passage, they found a nest of "Mongolian sandworms", which Western explorers called "death bugs".
At that time, Lin Yi was still wondering why this insect appeared here.
That is, he recognized this kind of thing and came up with a feasible way to deal with it in time.
In that narrow passage, there are pros and cons.
The advantage is that the diameter of the aperture is exactly the same size as the King Kong umbrella, and as long as the umbrella leaves are opened, the sandworm basically has no chance to attack.
The disadvantage is that the space is too cramped, and there is no way to use more means.
However, as long as these sandworms appear in an open area, they are simply invincible.
Now, seeing the situation around him, Lin Yi basically understood what was going on.
Thinking back to the color of those dry bones I just saw, everything made sense.
These "Mongolian sandworms" were brought in by them when they were digging underground fortifications.
At first, they didn't realize how powerful this little bug was.
Set up a position here and send a team to delve deep into it to explore its mysteries.
Unexpectedly, all the advance troops in front were killed in the traps and traps.
The large army in the rear was also served by the "Mongolian sandworms".
Not only did they not have time to send a distress signal to the outside world, but even their own troops did not know where they ended up.
"I understand, Gong Guisen, this old thing, was looking for the whereabouts of this army back then, so he spent so much effort to go deep into the edge of the desert in the great northwest, and in the name of supporting the northwest, to find the troops between the Miyazawa pillars."
"Eighty percent of the time. Is the whereabouts of this force really that important to them? ”
Wang Qiang asked puzzled.
Lin Yi picked up the kerosene lamp and looked through the diary on the table, the contents were all in Japanese, and he didn't understand it very well.
The large red lacquered box behind him caught his attention.
I took off the padlock, opened the lock, and lifted the cover, and there was a sandalwood box half a meter square lying inside.
Next to it, there are also several round metal barrels of wrist thickness.
This kind of thing is usually used by little devils to mount maps.
Wang Qiang reached out and took the sandalwood box out of the box and carefully placed it on the table.
Lin Yi flushed the opening of the sandalwood box out, put a mirror on it, opened the knob of the lock on it, tied a rope, and slowly pulled it away from behind.
The mirror image was reflected through the mirror to the mirror in Lin Yi's hand, and the situation inside was clear at a glance without facing the box.
Inside the box was an object covered with a red cloth with a bulge in the middle.
Pick open the red cloth with the tip of a knife from the side, revealing the contents of the cloth.
The two of them only looked at each other, and their mouths suddenly opened wide.
In this box, there is a fossilized human skull.
It exudes a luster similar to that of Tian Topaz, and the fine holes on it prove that it is indeed a fossilized skull, not a jade carving artifact.
"Lao Lin, you say, could this thing be the 'ape-man skull' fossil that the devil took away from us back then?"
Wang Qiang swallowed.
"It's hard to say, let's go and see."
Lin Yi held a kerosene lamp and looked closer, the inside of the box was padded with a thick velvet interlining, and the skull was lying quietly inside.
The shape is incomplete, and the jaw part is missing.
On the velvet cloth underneath it, a silver metal nameplate is inlaid with it.
A line of characters is marked in kanji and Japanese.
The content of the two lines is very similar, and the two read it according to the text above:
"Fossil skull of Shangjing ape-man".
Wang Qiang looked at Lin Yi, Lin Yi looked at Wang Qiang, calmed down for a moment, and the two shouted in unison:
"it!"
"We found this thing!"
As he spoke, Wang Qiang was about to reach out and touch it, but Lin Yi slapped it heavily on the back of his hand.
"Don't move, you can't hold this thing."
"I know, isn't that curious? Seeing that the old ancestor was excited, I wanted to take a look. ”
"Just put it in the box and look at it, how can you hold the ancestor in your hand and look at it?"
Wang Qiang picked up the sandalwood box and looked up and down, left and right.
"Tut-tut, should I say it or not, judging from the bones of the ancestors, it's a bit short-lived."
"Nonsense, how could ape-men live long before?"
Lin Yi took the box from his hand, cut off a few pieces of canvas that had not yet decayed from the devil's marching bed, wrapped the box inside and out, and stuffed it into Wang Qiang's backpack.
"As long as this thing is brought out of here, the shock level is no less than the original 'Qingzhou Ding'.
You think about it, do you want this fame or not. ”
When he asked, Wang Qiang stopped asking.
Needless to say, the weight of this thing goes without saying, as long as it is proved that they found it, and the age is fine, as long as it is published, all kinds of interviews will come one after another, from top to bottom leaders at all levels condolences, awards, deeds reports
What Chen Erwazi experienced at the beginning, he has to go through it again.
Until now, Chen Erwa still receives interview requests from various media from time to time, and the threshold of their family is about to be broken.
"I don't really want this reputation, can we just reward it? I'm a person who likes to be practical. ”
"Think beautifully, as long as this thing is handed over from your hands, everything that should be there is indispensable."
Wang Qiang frowned, and said with a sad face:
"Who am I going to give this to?"
"If you don't want this name and profit, then you will hand it over to Lao Wei and them, and this thing will be handed over by their hands, and they will have nothing to worry about for the rest of their lives."
Hearing Lin Yi say this, Wang Qiang suddenly smiled.
"That's a good dare, give them all this fame and fortune, and I'll help them carry this for a while. Don't say it, carrying your ancestors on your back is down-to-earth. ”
Lin Yi smiled and patted him on the shoulder, turned around and went to the big box, and took out the metal cylinder containing the map.
Unscrew the lid and the contents are still intact.
Pull out the contents little by little along the mouth of the cylinder.
In the first few tubes, they are filled with strategic maps drawn by devils, and I have to say that the level of map drawing is really high, no wonder we defeated the devils at the beginning, and the number one trophy captured was their atlas.
The weight of the two metal cylinders pressed against the bottom of the red lacquered box is obviously different.
Lin Yi carefully opened the mouth of the cylinder, and a unique smell of chemicals wafted out.
He quickly covered his mouth and nose, poured out the contents of the tube, and spread it on the table.
It turned out that this tube contained several murals taken from the wall with chemical tape.
Judging from the style of the murals, the works of the middle and late Tang dynasties, and Lin Yi can see at a glance that the source of these murals is neither a grotto, nor a Buddhist hall, but from the tomb. (End of chapter)
