Chapter 910: The Man Who Invented the Luoyang Shovel
The plot of "Genting Palace" is too magical.
King Wannu, Bronze Gate...
These incredible things are completely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Could it be that Chen Ming has really seen these things?
For a moment, Professor Yi's heart cooled down when he discovered the ancient ruins.
Chen Ming may seem ordinary, but there may be an unknown story hidden behind him.
Thinking of this, Professor Yi asked the two students to dig deeper under the snow. After a while, the full view of the stone tablet was revealed in front of the three of them.
Not only that, from the gaps, Professor Yi could infer that there was indeed a temple under his feet.
It's just that years of snow have completely buried the temple, and the Changbai Mountains are inaccessible. Even if hikers reach the top of the mountain, they probably won't be able to find it without careful observation.
"This is Dong Xiawen."
Professor Yi said firmly after repeated observations.
His research field is paleography.
These strange symbols did not feel strange to him at all, and he could even barely understand the meaning on the stone tablets.
Suddenly, a student asked out of curiosity: "Then what is the secret text of the dragon fish in the TV series "Yunding Tiangong"?"
Professor Yi shook his head.
He doesn't know either.
Professor Yi stopped the excavation process, turned around and said: "Let's go down the mountain first, bury this place with snow again, and then notify the research institute to send people over to add more people, and just report the situation truthfully."
One of the students asked hesitantly: "Professor, do we want to report Chen Ming's matter?"
"I feel like he should have been here and even discovered the Dongxia tribe."
Professor Yi frowned slightly and shook his head after a long time: "Don't talk about it yet. Wait until you enter the temple to see if it has been damaged by anyone before making any plans."
"Okay, Professor."
It's afternoon now.
If we don't go down the mountain quickly, we may have to spend the night on the snowy mountain.
Immediately, the three of them hurried down the mountain, and the two students were excited.
For them, the discovery of the ancient ruins of the Dongxia tribe is definitely a great discovery.
And their names will also be recorded.
This is a supreme honor!
When the three of them returned to the foot of the mountain, the sun had completely set, and the faint moonlight reflected on the snow, making them not feel dark at all.
The car they paid for was still waiting for them at the foot of the mountain.
Seeing the three people coming back, the owner of the car asked them to get in the car and drove towards the nearest town. Getting on was very tiring.
In the car, the three of them seemed drowsy, and Professor Yi even fell asleep in the car wrapped in clothes.
Back to town.
Professor Yi forced himself to make a phone call to the people at the institute and described the situation here.
The institute knows that very few people come to Changbai Mountains.
There are only a few of his students.
Therefore, Professor Yi made up a random reason and told the people at the institute that he accidentally discovered the ancient temple in the Changbai Mountains.
In an instant, the archaeological circle in Kyoto was in a state of excitement.
Although the Dongxia people are a small tribe, there are almost no records and they appear to be very mysterious.
If this situation is true, it would be equivalent to filling a blank in the history of China.
A night of silence.
The next day, as soon as Professor Yi got up, people from the institute arrived.
Apparently, this group of people brought all kinds of professional equipment and rushed here overnight.
The leader is also quite young, probably about the same age as Professor Yi.
Seeing Professor Yi, the man took two hurried steps with a solemn expression: "Old Yi, let's go up the mountain quickly."
Everyone had a simple breakfast and hurried towards the foot of the highest peak of the Changbai Mountains.
This time there were a lot of people.
Yesterday there were only three people.
But today, there are more than ten people carrying various equipment, plus some professional archaeologists, professors, etc., the total number of people in this team exceeds twenty.
When we returned to the top of the mountain, everyone was excited.
June, rare good weather.
There is no snow in the Changbai Mountains.
This greatly facilitates the work of clearing snow.
Not long after, the temple's roof appeared completely in everyone's sight.
The top of the temple is a square ten meters long and wide.
From this point of view, the overall area of this temple should not be very large.
It is almost the size of a traditional standard room with two bedrooms and one living room.
Not only that, there are many strange patterns on the top of the temple, which is dazzling.
Fortunately, this temple is built on a snow-capped mountain, where the temperature is low and it is well preserved.
If it is an ordinary temple on the ground, these patterns may have been corroded by various factors and cannot be seen as they are.
The archaeological work cannot be completed immediately.
With official authorization, climbers are temporarily prohibited from climbing in this area and a warning cordon has been set up.
A week later, the entire temple was cleared and its original appearance was revealed.
The Dongxia people regard the wolf as their totem.
Therefore, there are wolf head graphics and even sculptures in many places in this temple.
Facts have proved that although this temple is not large in area, it is very high. Cleaners worked day and night to clear away the snow, and a temple more than 20 meters high appeared in front of everyone.
"Wolf totem, Dongxia text, is indeed an ancient relic of the Dongxia tribe."
The professors were filled with excitement.
"It's great, it fills the gap in the history of Chinese tribes!"
"Lao Yi, you are so lucky!"
"You can find such important ancient ruins just by wandering around. It seems that I can't stay in the research institute all the time in the future. I have to go out more often."
Many people are praising Professor Yi.
Only a few people knew clearly that Professor Yi came here to investigate on a whim after watching the TV series.
Unexpectedly, I actually found ancient ruins.
"Get ready to open the temple gate."
Professor Yi did not respond to these compliments, but focused on this temple.
All the professors approached the temple door cautiously. Once the temple door opened, they wanted to be the first to enter the temple.
There is only one person.
The professor who had urged Professor Yi to go up the mountain before stood beside Professor Yi and asked in a low voice: "Old Yi, tell me the truth, how did you find out?"
Professors at the institute basically don’t go out.
Even if I go out, I would not choose a place with harsh environment like snow-capped mountains.
Professor Yi's sudden visit to the Changbai Mountains seems unreasonable.
Hearing the words,
Professor Yi pondered for a moment and replied in a low voice: "Old Song, do you usually watch TV series?"
all of a sudden,
The first person was questioned.
He is over 60 years old, what kind of TV series does he still follow?
These are the hobbies of young people.
"If I said that I came to the Changbai Mountains to explore on a whim because I watched a TV series, would you believe it?" Professor Yi knew that it was a bit unbelievable to say this, but he could only tell the truth.
for a moment,
Professor Song's eyes widened.
What is it like when a TV series becomes reality?
All I can say is, it's very dreamy.
Professor Yi raised the Luoyang shovel in his hand: "The person who inspired me is the person who invented this tool."
Chen Ming.
There is probably no one in the entire Archaeological Institute who does not know the name Chen Ming.
