Chapter 79 Shocking Modernity: Relics from Ancient Times!
The long river of time is rushing.
In the Imperial City of Xianyang of the Great Qin Dynasty, the almost visible celestial phenomena of fortune soared into the sky in the eyes of hundreds of scholars and Qi refiners.
Countless birds flutter in the sky.
Above the vast wilderness, the golden spiritual creature came and kowtowed with all the spirits in the mountains. The dust it brought made the mountains turn and boil.
This scene shocked no one.
Countless creatures, under the guidance of ignorance, sprang out of the jungle, looked at Xianyang and kowtowed respectfully.
In modern times, a thousand years later, in the dense forest, there are also hares running wildly in the mountains and forests.
The breeze blows through the jungle.
The frightened gray hares moved their fat steps and fled back and forth among the dense shrubs.
They stepped over fallen leaves, jumped over dead trees, and avoided old trees
They kept running back and forth in the familiar jungle, jumping up and down, skillfully moving the monkey behind them, but moving extremely slowly and clumsily. Creatures, easily left behind.
Looking at the enemy getting further and further away, the hare raised his head proudly.
Just when the hare thought that today would be like other days, easily getting rid of these creatures with colorful fur.
It staggered slightly.
The hind legs suddenly tightened as if they tripped over a small branch.
Then, before the hare could react, the force suddenly became stronger!
It seemed that something tightened its hind legs, and then in the bushes not far away, a branch that had obviously been broken not long ago suddenly tightened!
‘Brush! ’
A greater force came.
The hare felt the world spin for a while, and one of his steps flew uncontrollably towards the sky.
The ground suddenly disappeared, and the limbs left the ground instantly.
In the past, it had looked up many times, but the fragrant buds at the top of the bush, which it could not reach even if it stretched its neck, suddenly passed by the tip of its nose.
But now the hare is no longer in the mood to smell this sweet delicacy.
Because it felt like the whole rabbit was flying.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
The hare struggled hard, its limbs flying in the air in panic, with obvious panic in its eyes.
But without the solid earth, everything it does has no effect at all.
The thin wire held its hind legs firmly in the air.
“Hahahaha! I knew it would work!”
An unbridled laughter came.
Ye Qingyao, who was wearing field archaeological clothing, ran up three steps at a time.
At this time, Ye Qingyao had long hair in a simple ponytail, and his clothes and face were a little gray from running and digging in the jungle and mud for a long time.
But this did not hinder her excitement at this time.
“Run! Run again!”
With her beautiful eyes shining with excitement, Ye Qingyao was panting and reached out to catch the hare struggling in the trap.
Immediately afterwards, she picked up the homemade mallet in her hand without the burden of being a beauty, and without saying a word, she hit it with a bang!
“Ji!!”
Poor Tutu was sent away with a stick on the spot.
Until the day before his death, the hare still didn’t understand how he got into the air.
Holding the fallen hare, Ye Qingyao stood up excitedly, almost crying.
"Finally caught one for me!"
"No matter what, I have to eat something good tonight!"
Looking at the delicious food in his hand, Ye Qingyao was very happy She wiped her saliva without the image of a beautiful woman.
It has been more than two months since they arrived in Qilian Mountain.
When they first came to Qilian Mountain, many members of the archaeological team were very excited.
Almost all the archaeologists, including Ye Qingyao, were working hard, their eyes were shining, and everything they looked at looked like ancient ruins.
They traveled crazily through the mountains and forests regardless of day or night, carrying all kinds of equipment and carrying hundreds of kilograms of modern exploration facilities on their backs!
It is to find the architectural remains that King Qin ordered people to build on the Qilian Mountains when he came to the throne according to unofficial historical records!
The successive discoveries of the Ding Qin Sword and the ancient Xianyang Dan Furnace pills gave everyone great confidence!
Especially Li Yunshan, Ye Qingyao and others are full of confidence in this excavation, and they feel that they can definitely unearth it.
However, what no one expected was that the excavation this time would be far more difficult than before.
For more than a month, old man Li Yunshan led the With the archaeological search team, almost half of the huge Qilian Mountains was searched.
But what they didn't expect was that during this period, no relics related to the ancient Yingzheng period appeared.
Not only are there no ruins, not even a trace of ancient times can be found!
In the vast woods, there are only trees and mountains. The vast greenery is floating like an ocean, and there is no trace at all!
During this period of time, the mentality of many members of the archaeological team has gradually changed from the excitement, excitement and impatient mood at the beginning.
It turned into calmness, anxiety, suspicion, and hesitation.
A month later, several members of the archaeological team had already chosen to leave. They started from the very beginning. The frenzy gradually cooled down.
A few days later, several more archaeologists left.
A few days later, there were a few more people.
Two months later, the originally mighty Qilian Mountain archaeological team, including old man Li Yunshan, only had less than ten people left.
By now, old man Li Yunshan, Ye Qingyao and others have looked away and have calmed down.
What relics and what King of Qin is like, if you can find it, just find it. If you can’t find it, forget it.
Nowadays, basically everyone has a Buddhist mentality and wanders around the Qilian Mountains aimlessly.
By now, even old man Li Yunshan has begun to doubt whether the record in the unofficial history discovered by old man Lu Changling is true or false.
If there were not a large number of cultural relics in the ancient Xianyang Museum that have not been analyzed and their origins have not yet been found, everyone might have gone home long ago.
Speaking of which As for what happened in the ancient Xianyang Museum, I have to mention the theft of the elixir.
When the pills from the ancient Xianyang Museum were stolen, many archaeologists had just arrived in the Qilian Mountains and were still gearing up to do something big.
What they never expected was that before they even started, something happened later!
As soon as the front leg left the Ancient Xianyang Museum, one of the pills from the back leg was stolen!
Hearing the words of the then museum director, many archaeologists felt like they had experienced a bolt from the blue!
Although these three pills have been tested by scientific means and are just a few ineffective or even poisonous pills, they have made countless archaeologists anxious!
However, after all the truth came out and the warehouse monitoring room was mobilized to watch what happened, many archaeologists were even more stunned!
Because according to the surveillance, the person who stole the elixir was not a thief at all!
But a weasel with short arms!
After seeing all this, almost all the archaeologists’ eyes widened in shock! Especially old man Li Yunshan, he couldn't help but spit out his old blood!
The dignified ancient Xianyang Museum actually let a weasel sneak in and steal a pill? !
What is going on!
Could it be any more careless? !
In fact, not only many archaeologists, but also the Ancient Xianyang Museum were speechless about this matter!
On the day of the accident, they contacted the police station near Guxianyang and blocked many roads. However, before the search began, they saw all this through surveillance.
I was immediately dumbfounded.
In the end, many archaeologists gave up after all the hard talk and various remedial measures.
But.
What if it doesn’t turn off the engine?
Everything was eaten
In short, since this incident, the defense force near the Ancient Xianyang Museum has been strengthened several times.
Because of this incident, the director of the museum almost took the blame and resigned, becoming the first museum director in Chinese history to resign because of a weasel.
However, after the first pill was stolen, the number of animals around him obviously increased.
Every time you open the warehouse, there are always countless animals trying to rush in with you.
Recalling the words engraved on the jade inscriptions when the elixir was excavated, the Ancient Xianyang Museum had to become suspicious.
In order to solve the mystery, they spent a lot of money to invite several professional pharmacy experts and physics experts to carefully study the material of the elixir.
But the results
"This thing is just a ball of carbide with a small amount of mercury, arsenic and other objects solidified."
"There is no fragrance, no odor, and nothing else. It is absolutely impossible to attract animals. "
Facing all this, the staff of the Ancient Xianyang Museum had no choice but to accept this fact, and added several layers of protective nets in front of the warehouse to prevent the valuable cultural relics from being stolen
However, as they did this, the surrounding animals decreased instead of increasing, thus attracting a large number of tourists. This has become a big mystery in the ancient Xianyang Museum.
But the ancient How things develop at the Xianyang Museum has nothing to do with the Qilian Mountains.
The blazing wind and the scorching sunshine shone on the back. It had been about three or four months since the ruins of the Dingqin Sword were first discovered. Today, the Qilian Mountains have already entered the scorching summer.
Cicadas chirped harshly all around, and Ye Qingyao was walking on the road carrying a hare.
After two months of investigation in the barren mountains and ridges, all kinds of supplies have been eaten up long ago, and transporting supplies in the mountains and forests is troublesome.
Fortunately, the expedition team are all veterans who have been abroad all year round. Relying on compressed biscuits and wilderness survival knowledge, they managed to live well in more than two months.
"If this continues, sooner or later I will have to become a wilderness survival expert. What kind of archeology?"
Carrying the hare to the river, Ye Qingyao muttered while skillfully disemboweling it and cleaning its internal organs.
Although she is a big beauty, Ye Qingyao did all this without any hesitation, and moved skillfully like a butcher in a breeding base
And just when Ye Qingyao was about to After the hare was cleaned, she was planning to go to the jungle to try her luck with the wooden stick to see if she could catch another stray rabbit.
She suddenly discovered that in the clear stream, There was a flat, square stone, slightly oval, lying on the edge of the wet river bed.
She is dark red in color and looks like a brick.
"Huh?"
"Where did you get a brick?"
Ye Qingyao was stunned and walked up subconsciously.
However, when she picked up the 'brick' and saw what it was, her eyes suddenly widened!
Because this thing that looks similar to a red brick is actually carved with large patterns!
It seemed incomplete. There was a large broken irregular pattern on the surface, much like the bottom of something.
Although the patterns on its surface are not very exquisite, they are quite complicated. In addition to large areas of red, there are also gold, black, and white patterns.
These colors are no longer bright. They have faded a lot under the wash of the stream, but the obvious color lines can still be seen!
‘Bah! ’
The freshly washed rabbit in his hand suddenly fell to the ground.
"This is."
Ye Qingyao's eyes suddenly widened, holding this 'red brick', his breathing became a little faster!
After rubbing it back and forth a few times and carefully distinguishing the material of the thing in his hand, Ye Qingyao's pupils gradually shrank to the size of a needle tip!
This.
What kind of red bricks are there!
This is clearly an ancient pottery base! !
Ye Qingyao's beautiful eyes lit up, his cheeks turned a little red due to excitement, and his little heart jumped crazily!
Observed again several times.
That’s right!
Absolutely right!
As a graduate student majoring in archeology, Ye Qingyao has almost inherited more than 90% of his grandfather Li Yunshan’s identification skills!
Ye Qingyao, who has grown up surrounded by antiques and cultural relics since he was a child, can almost instantly distinguish the appearance of this thing!
More than 90% of this is a clay cellar basin!
This cellar bottom basin is obviously made using the mud bar construction method!
On the four sides of its 'bricks', you can clearly see the traces of several layers of division!
Although it is not obvious, this is the trace left by the method of gradually winding the clay strips upward when it was originally built!
Although there are traces of smoothing, under the erosion of time, it has lost the smooth cover on the surface, revealing the layers of soil construction strips underneath!
Pottery is a tool used in the early Chinese civilization, before porcelain appeared!
This kind of pottery built with clay strips was the most widely circulated during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period!
Especially in the Qin era, it was extremely common!
At the ruins of the Xianyang palace in the capital of Qin, a cellar-bottom basin was unearthed!
The mouth and bottom of its basin are both approximately oval-shaped, with the mouth rim slightly everted, the abdomen slightly curved outward, and the body is thick and hard. The shape is larger, with a diameter of about one meter, a height of more than 60 centimeters, and a base diameter of more than 50 centimeters.
It is still displayed in the ancient Xianyang Museum where the elixirs and Dingqin Sword were previously stored!
Besides the first time, Ye Qingyao seemed to still vaguely see a black black bird pattern on the side of the 'brick'
Although it was only half, it was the same as what had been unearthed The portrait of the Xianyang flag of the Qin Dynasty is very similar!
Seeing all this, Ye Qingyao's heart suddenly jumped with excitement! !
This thing!
There is a high probability that it is the bottom of a pit basin, and there is a very high possibility that it originated from the Qin Dynasty! ! !
The rabbit that he had fought so hard to capture had been washed away by the stream, but Ye Qingyao didn't care at all.
She held the base of the cellar basin in her hand, looked up at the stream flowing from nowhere, and her heart was beating fast!
Could it be
Was washed down by this stream? !
I almost thought that the things recorded in the unofficial history could not be true. I didn’t expect that cultural relics could really be found in the Qilian Mountains?
Fumbling for the bottom of the cellar basin in his hand, Ye Qingyao quickly swam up the stream without saying a word!
At the same time, he took out the radio in his hand and spoke excitedly!
"Quick!"
"Grandpa, Xiaoyi!"
"Come to me!!"
"I seem to have discovered something recorded in the unofficial history!! ”
