evening. Qingluan Mountain. "How far is it?" Zhang Dongfang panted. "It's quite far, County Magistrate Zhang," said Xiao Cheng, the village secretary. Zhang Dongfang waved his hand, "Huh, I can't do it anymore. I have to take a rest." Someone came up from behind and said, "I'll help you, County Magistrate Zhang. Sit down and have a rest." Zhang Dongfang's little two hundred kilograms of flesh was trembling. After climbing for more than ten minutes, he couldn't hold on anymore. The people from the county government office who were accompanying him quickly took care of the county magistrate, helped him sit down, and brought him mineral water. The group of people who went up the mountain had no choice but to Stopped. "I'm sorry, Secretary Dong." Zhang Dongfang wiped his sweat and gasped: "I'm getting old. I think I was quite thin when I was young. It's impossible to climb such a high hill without even taking a breath. , Alas, time is not forgiving, it can’t be done now, it can’t be done.” Dong Xuebin asked with concern: “It’s okay, you’ll get over it after a while.” Zhang Dongfang couldn’t let the county party secretary wait for him. , "You go ahead, don't worry about me." Dong Xuebin said: "Where can we go?" Zhang Dongfang said: "Xiao Xiao, you take Secretary Dong up first, I will be there soon." Dong Xuebin shook his head, " Let's do this. You guys will help Magistrate Zhang up the mountain. I'll go take a look first. Xiao Xiao, where is the specific direction?" Xiao Cheng said hurriedly: "It's almost dark. You don't know the road. The mountain road is not good. It's dangerous to leave. How can you do it alone? "Xiao Cheng has been working here for five or six years, and he is half a local. He knows the situation of Qingluan Mountain well, so he dares to take people up the mountain. If it had been anyone else, who would have dared to climb up such a barren mountain when it was almost dark? Someone would have died if he got lost. "Just point it out to me." Dong Xuebin didn't listen. Xiao Cheng had no choice but to point to the top and said: "Go over there. There will be a small road after a while, turn left, and you can see it if you go straight up for ten minutes." Dong Xuebin thought for a while, "There is a long and thin strip. Where is the rock several meters high?" Xiao Cheng was stunned, "It's five minutes further up the road. How did you know?" He looked up and confirmed that it was impossible to see the rock from here. It was too far away. There were still many trees blocking the way. He didn't understand how Dong Xuebin knew. Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "I have been to this mountain before. Okay, then I know the way. You can take care of County Magistrate Zhang. I will go first." Zhang Dongfang said loudly: "Pay attention, Xuebin, be careful where you step. "Okay." Dong Xuebin waved back and went up. Why does Dong Xuebin know this? Because he had been here before, Dong Xuebin came to the mountain early in the morning that weekend for this ancient tomb, and almost climbed the entire mountain along the path. While climbing, I picked up things and dug. Although I didn’t gain much in the end, at least I got a general understanding of Qingluan Mountain. He also had a strong sense of direction, so when Xiao Cheng said that Dong Xuebin immediately recalled that area. Very distinctive rocks on this bald mountain. That rock is considered an iconic landmark. One minute... five minutes... Xiao Cheng said it would take more than ten minutes, but Dong Xuebin only took seven or eight minutes to get there. As soon as it passed, light came into sight not far away. It's not the halo of the setting sun, but the artificial searchlight, which is very bright and dazzling. "Ouch." "Secretary Dong?" "Why are you here in person?" The staff over there who were setting up a temporary headquarters and some related facilities saw Dong Xuebin and hurriedly greeted him. There were people from the Cultural Bureau and the Public Security Bureau. Obviously, everyone had been idle before, and it could be seen that the cordon had been drawn up over a large area. Hundreds of meters around were surrounded, several large tents had been erected, searchlights were set up on the trees, and everything was basically set up. Dong Xuebin looked around and couldn't help but said: "Everyone has worked hard, but you haven't eaten yet, right?" "It's not hard, we should." Director Liu of the Cultural Center said, "We haven't eaten yet, but the villagers have already sat down , We are going to eat on the mountain, because there are still some things that have to be finished, and we will go down the mountain after we finish it. Then we will just leave a few people behind." Dong Xuebin looked to the side and saw that a fire was lit and set up there. Pots, several fellow villagers from Qingbei Village who took them up the mountain were helping everyone cook. Many tents and related equipment were probably shared by several fellow villagers when they went up the mountain. Otherwise, they would only rely on the twenty-odd people from their cultural relics protection team. It is impossible for an individual to carry so many things up. It would be difficult for them to carry them up themselves. "Fellow." Dong Xuebin walked up quickly, "Thank you. I'm sorry for asking everyone to work with us." A middle-aged man smiled honestly, "What's the point of thanking you? Secretary Xiao gave us orders. Just take a quick walk, it doesn't take much effort. If you want to eat or move something later, just call us." Dong Xuebin said, "That's not appropriate, and we make you run back and forth." The middle-aged man said, "We are here all the time." Those of you who pick herbs on the mountain feel tired from climbing. It’s a daily routine for us. It’s hard not to climb twice a day.” Another young villager said, “Second uncle, the food is ready.” The middle-aged man called everyone to come and eat. I also filled a bowl of soup and sat on the floor to drink it. It's called cooking, but it's actually just a pot of miscellaneous chowder. There's not much oil or water in it, but it's good enough to have something hot to eat on the mountain. Dong Xuebin called Director Liu over, "Don't forget the wages of fellow villagers when the time comes. Pay them as much as you can when the time comes. When the time comes, the account will go to the county." Director Liu nodded slightly, "Absolutely. I can't forget it." Everyone was hungry, so they all put down their work and went to eat. Dong Xuebin looked back and saw that a man opened the cordon tape and bent down to go in. On the other end, the staff had marked the place and put a flag to mark the location. It was obviously the place where the bronze mirror was dug out. Dong Xuebin exhaled, walked forward slowly and stood there, squatted down and dug out the small hole that had been dug out with his hands. He tinkered with it for a long time but did not dare to dig it. He was also afraid of causing any damage. At this time, Zhang Dongfang and others arrived late. The people in the work group hurriedly put down their bowls and wanted to greet him. However, Zhang Dongfang tiredly waved his hand and asked them to continue eating. He looked at Dong Xuebin over there and also broke through the cordon and went in. "Secretary Dong." "Here?" "Is this here?" "Well, the bronze mirror was dug out here." Zhang Dongfang also followed Dong Xuebin and squatted down to look at it for a long time. At the end, he whispered: "What do you mean? Is there really a group of ancient tombs under this ground? It doesn’t look like it.” Dong Xuebin said: “This requires professional equipment and professionals to confirm. If there are indeed ancient tombs, dig them layer by layer. Only when the layers are peeled off can the traces of the ancient tomb be revealed. You can't see it if you look at it now. Doesn't every excavation work take months or even years? That's fine. They don't care about the historical value of the ancient tomb. If they destroy it, they will destroy it. They only value the valuable burial objects inside, but we can't do that." Zhang Dongfang nodded, touching the ground with his hand and said: "I hope there can be one. Good news." "They'll be here soon. We'll find out soon." Dong Xuebin looked at his watch. Mu Zhengzhong and the others should have got off the plane early. There was no signal on his mobile phone and he couldn't contact him anymore. Su Yan's phone number has been left with Teacher Mu and the others, so there is no need to worry about it. Su Yan has been waiting at the airport. Dong Xuebin told him to rush over to Qingluan Mountain as soon as he receives the person. … it's dark. Several fellow villagers have gone down the mountain. But when they saw that Secretary Dong and County Magistrate Zhang had no intention of going down the mountain and were still talking there, no one in the working group left. After everyone had finished installing the equipment and building the facilities, there were more people. A searchlight was turned on to brighten up the scene. Finally, around 7:40, the light of a flashlight came from the bottom of the mountain. Xiao Cheng and two local villagers came up with Su Yan and a few middle-aged people. "Teacher Mu, you have worked hard all the way." Dong Xuebin smiled when he saw the person. Many people in the Jiao Neighbor County working group obviously recognized Mu Zhengzhong, and they were all stunned. They didn't expect that Secretary Dong had invited such a famous person, and that he had come all the way to Qingluan Mountain. Nowhere in the corner? For a while, everyone started to wonder, could there really be an ancient tomb here? Could it be that Secretary Dong really guessed it right? Did the blind cat meet a dead mouse? No way? Mu Zhengzhong and the others were also very tired. They hurriedly caught a plane in the afternoon, came to Jiao Neighbor County non-stop, and climbed up the mountain non-stop. The three of them were already quite old, so this physical exertion was unimaginable. As you know, everyone has sweat and exhaustion on their foreheads. However, what is surprising is that even though several people are exhausted, their eyes seem to be full of good health and high energy. "Xuebin, let me introduce you first." Mu Zhengzhong pointed to the two people next to him, "This is Lao Chu from the archaeological team, and this is Lao Meng, a researcher at the National Palace Museum." "Teacher Chu, Meng Teacher." Dong Xuebin went up and shook hands with them, "Thank you for your hard work." After that, he introduced Zhang Dongfang, "This is County Magistrate Zhang Dongfang." Zhang Dongfang also said a few words to them. Teacher Chu of the archaeological team was the most anxious among the people. He didn't bother to say hello to people he knew, and immediately asked: "Where is the thing?"Curator Liu also heard the introduction just now. When he saw that the other party was from the archaeological team, he couldn't help being awe-struck and quickly brought up the box wrapped with the bronze mirror. He had brought it up the mountain according to Dong Xuebin's instructions. Teacher Chu finally opened the box. Mu Zhengzhong and Teacher Meng also gathered around, put on their gloves, took out the things, and looked at them carefully under the light. Finally, they looked at each other and nodded vigorously. 〖Book Network∷Fast updates∷No pop-ups∷Plain text∷www.〗RT
