"A child doesn't have as long a story as a mother about this matter."
After Xia Shushi finished speaking, he took several mouthfuls of watermelon, and then he pulled out two wet wipes with unfinished content. Then he turned to look at Qin Qi, "You come and I'll come?"
"Let me do it"
Qin Qi took the wet wipes handed by Xia Shushi and said while wiping her hands, "We set off from Ganzi and ended at Banyou. When we were about to reach Banyou, we found a piece of grassland and decided to
I was camping to look at the stars, and then I accidentally discovered a glass medicine bottle.”
"What kind of glass medicine bottle?" Suisui helped Wei Ran ask the question he was about to ask.
"This kind"
Xia Shushi, who had just finished wiping his hands, took out his mobile phone, pulled out a photo and handed it over.
After taking the phone, the photo displayed on the screen showed a brown wide-mouth glass bottle with a black bakelite lid. Next to it, there was a can of Red Bull as a reference.
This glass bottle looks only slightly smaller than the Red Bull can used as a reference.
Sliding the screen to scroll back, what came into view was a photo of Xia Shushi and his soon-to-be girlfriend Qin Qi kissing.
I flipped it forward twice quickly and finally got a detailed close-up photo of the medicine bottle.
It can be clearly seen in this photo that the glass bottle has beautiful hammer patterns all over the body, and at the waist line are two lines of traditional Chinese characters - "Hangzhou Hu Qing Yu Xue Ji".
Continuing to scroll forward, the third photo is a close-up of the bottle cap. The Bakelite bottle cap is still intact. There is also a rusty thick iron wire tied to the constriction of the bottle mouth. This iron wire twists out an extra cigarette.
The thick and thin ring is probably used for tying a rope or hanging somewhere.
Turning forward again, this time I put the flashlight on the bottle to get a close-up of the inside of the bottle.
It's a pity that because of the color of the bottle, although you can see there is something inside, you can't see it clearly.
Then scrolling forward, in a new photo, there are several things placed on a spread white towel.
The first is a whistle covered with patina. On the mouthpiece of this whistle, you can vaguely see a five-pointed star hidden in the patina.
Secondly, there are a few pieces stuck together, and I don't know what they are.
In addition to these items, there are two "twenty-cent" silver dollars on the towel. Around the silver dollar, you can clearly see "Soviet Republic of China" as well as two small five-pointed stars and "Gregorian calendar year 1933".
” words.
Continuing to scroll down, the next photo seems to have been taken with the camera looking into the bottle. There is also something like burnt charcoal ash stuck to the bottom of the glass bottle.
Swipe the screen forward again. This photo was taken from the inside of the cover. There is a black and white photo of only two inches in size stuck here.
It's a pity that the person in this photo has been corroded to the point that the outline of his face cannot be seen clearly. He can only barely make out that she seems to be a woman.
I continued to swipe the screen, and the next photo that appeared turned into a photo of Xia Shushi and Qin Qi kissing.
He kindly scrolled back and turned off the screen. Wei Ran returned the phone to Xia Shushi and asked, "Where is the real thing?"
"It's definitely not in our hands," Xia Shushi replied matter-of-factly.
"So how can I help you?"
Wei Ran picked up the watermelon again and took a bite and asked, "Or what do you want to do?"
"I want to know who the picture is inside the bottle cap, or find out who the bottle belongs to."
Xia Shushi thought for a while and then added, "I know this is quite difficult, but now that old photo has been sent to a professional institution for restoration, and it is estimated that it can be restored."
"Where are the other things?" Wei Ran continued to ask.
"I'm running an analysis at my teacher's place to see what those sticky things are."
Xia Shushi replied, "My teacher also wants to find the owner of that bottle. In that case, I thought I might as well take you along with me."
"Can I take this along with me?" Wei Ran looked at him strangely.
"Do you want to hear a more official reason or a more utilitarian reason or a real reason from a friend?" Xia Shushi put away his phone and gave three options at once.
"How about you tell me everything?" Wei Ran asked with great interest.
"OK!"
Xia Shushi cleared his throat very crisply, "Official reasons, inviting famous historians..."
"Stop, stop, next!"
Wei Ran shivered in an exaggerated manner, and Suisui and Qin Qi, who were sitting nearby and listening to the excitement, also laughed out loud.
"A more utilitarian excuse"
Xia Shushi took a bite of watermelon and said, "In case anything comes out of the investigation, it's just a good time to catch up on your recent popularity."
"Don't you think this heat is unlucky?" Wei Ran shook his head dumbfounded, "Okay, stop beating around the bush, what do you mean?"
"Reciprocate love"
Xia Shushi finally became more serious this time, "You gave me a huge share of the credit for investigating the American captain last time, and you also made me stand out at Savage Mountain.
So this time, brother, I will give you a hand, if we can really find out something, it will really make news in the country."
"Then what?" Qin Qi asked subconsciously. Obviously, Xia Shushi had not mentioned these considerations to her before.
"This way, even if the idiot wants to assassinate this historian, he has to weigh the consequences first."
Xia Shushi's tone became more serious, "Brother, if you can really find out...
Let me tell you this, even if you don’t find out anything, as long as this incident makes official news in the country, you will have a label of our China."
Picking up a piece of watermelon and taking another bite, Xia Shushi returned to his lazy look, "Don't take it seriously, as long as you make news in China, especially such positive news.
Unless you blow up the White House, Idiot America will at least not do anything scandalous like assassinating you. And then not only you, but also the people around you will not have to worry about it."
"What is this?" Wei Ran asked, feeling moved and somewhat dumbfounded.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "What do you mean?"
Xia Shushi threw away the fourth piece of watermelon rind and replied matter-of-factly, "Of course it is the blessing of our revolutionary predecessors.
That's just your luck. If we hadn't happened to find that medicine bottle some time ago, I would have had a headache where to find materials for you."
"Anyway, we are not in a hurry to go to Kazan these days."
Suisui turned to look at Wei Ran and said with a smile, "Besides, you are idle when you are idle. Brother Xia came all the way here. You can't let them go in vain, right?"
"Didn't we just agree..."
"I won't go to the market tomorrow. Everyone who goes to the market in this hot day is sunburnt." Suisui blocked the second half of Wei Ran's sentence with a smile, "You should go and help Brother Xi first."
When the words came to this point, Wei Ran had no room to refuse.
As for Xia Shushi, this fellow obviously knew very well who was in charge, so he immediately said without waiting for Wei Ran to say anything, "Now that the Queen has spoken, this matter has been decided happily! You are ready to prepare,
Let’s set off in the next two days!”
"Wait a minute," Wei Ran asked quickly, "Where are we going?"
"Banyou," Qin Qi said matter-of-factly, "Ah, Bazhou, fly to Huanglongji first..."
"No, wait a minute."
Wei Ran waved his hand to stop the fast-talking girl, "I mean, why are we going there? Isn't the thing there..."
"I suspect that there are other things near the place where the glass medicine bottle was found." Xia Shushi took over the topic and explained, "So I want to search there again to see if I can find any other clues."
"Didn't you look carefully at first?" Wei Ran couldn't help but ask.
“There was quite a lot of freezing rain.”
Xia Shushi explained, "When I woke up the next morning, I was cold and caught a cold, so I came back in a hurry."
Seeing Wei Ran looking at her, Suisui thought about it and said regretfully, "I can't go with you. Although it's the same wherever I work, I still have to keep an eye on it, so you can go by yourself.
.”
"Aren't you in a hurry to learn Kazan?"
Wei Ran simply asked directly. Of course he could tell just now that Suisui's so-called "it doesn't matter where he works" was actually referring to Kazan and the capital of China.
"I was a little anxious at first, but now I'm not anxious at all."
Suisui said with a smile, "Let's just wait a little longer. It just happens to give our international student employees a holiday, so that they can go back and prepare for the start of school. If they have work, they can work online in the school, so that Lola can still communicate with them.
Her sister will stay a little longer."
After saying that, Suisui directly switched to Russian and called Anfisa over to change the itinerary that had been planned not long ago.
"So when are you leaving?" Wei Ran turned to look at Xia Shushi and his girlfriend Qin Qi.
"I'm not free this time"
Qin Qi was the first to say, "I have to go back to work in a few days. You two can just go by yourself. I marked the location of that place."
In addition, I can also borrow two cars from my friend. You two can fly directly to Huanglong Airport, and then drive my friend’s car there by yourself."
"Then let's buy tickets now?" Xia Shushi looked at Wei Ran and asked.
"You're quite impatient." Wei Ran grinned. Wasn't he agreeing too happily?
"I want to investigate this matter clearly before the National Day, so of course I have to hurry up."
Xia Shushi had already started to check the air tickets while he was talking, "I also mentioned this matter to Qin Zhuo, and he said that as long as we can find out something, we can leave the other matters to him.
Luckily, there is a flight tomorrow afternoon. I'll check it out later. No, this is too expensive. It's only for business..."
"That's it," Suisui said very proudly, "I'll reimburse you for the round trip fare."
"Tsk! We, the Queen, must do things openly!"
Before Xia Shushi finished speaking, he quickly asked for Wei Ran's ID number and booked two tickets, "Sincere benefits are 11,580, just wipe a zero and give me 10,000."
"Transfer the money." Suisui looked at Wei Ran beside her with a smile.
Wei Ran angrily transferred 10,000 yuan to Xia Shushi, which was considered a nail in the coffin.
It was only at this moment that Xia Shushi seemed to have just remembered. He called Qin Qi and Wei Ran for help and moved boxes of Dalian specialties as gifts from the trunk of the off-road vehicle at the door.
.
"If I don't agree, these gifts won't be brought down?" Wei Ran asked angrily.
Xia Shushi deliberately squeezed Wei Ran, "These things are quite expensive."
"Thank you so much"
Wei Ran shook his head helplessly, but he was silently prepared to endure hunger - even though he had accumulated enough experience in this matter.
On the afternoon of September 1st, with Suisui and Katenka sisters, and even Marta, Lu Xinda and Qin Qi waving goodbye, Wei Ran and Xia Shushi, lightly dressed in simple clothes, walked into the waiting security check of the Capital Airport.
mouth.
"Where exactly are we going?"
While waiting to board the plane, in the business class lounge, Wei Ran finally asked the question he wanted to ask yesterday.
“Less than 50 kilometers away from Banyou”
The old god Xia Shushi explained carefully, "That place is just a meadow, and it belongs to the Songpan Grassland."
At this point, this guy had already taken out his mobile phone, opened the photo album and pulled out the photos of him and Qin Qi taken on the grassland, "These are the photos we took locally."
"You are mostly showing off."
Although Wei Ran said this, he still took the phone and looked through it.
Even if he ignored the couple who were obviously in love in the photo, he had to admit that the scenery in the photo was beautiful enough. It was so beautiful that it didn't match up with the grassland in "Climbing Snowy Mountains and Crossing Grassland" that he thought.
.
Seemingly sensing Wei Ran's thoughts, Xia Shushi waited for Wei Ran to look through the photos and explained, "The grassland here is completely different from the grassland more than 80 years ago. After so many years of development, the swamp that once was a cannibal is now just a grassland.
All that's left is beautiful pastures and wide roads."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "How far is that place from the road?" Wei Ran asked, "I mean where you camped."
Xia Shushi thought for a while and replied, "The straight-line distance is estimated to be three to four hundred meters. You will know when you go and take a look."
"Are you really here to see the stars?" Wei Ran looked at the other party suspiciously.
"That's not the case!"
Xia Shushi said proudly, "I even brought an astronomical telescope, but who would have thought that it wouldn't be used at all."
Too lazy to delve deeper into this topic, Wei Ran took the initiative to change the topic and asked, "So how are you going to find it when you get there?"
"Before I went to find you, I had already bought a metal detector. This time I went there mainly to see if I could find anything more."
Xia Shushi paused and continued, "If we find more, we will inform the relevant cultural protection units. If not, I'm afraid we will have to find a solution ourselves."
After hearing this, Wei Ran thought about it for a while and then changed the topic to Xia Shushi's prospective girlfriend Qin Qi.
According to this guy, Qin Qi is the cousin of Qin II. One of the two families is in the capital and the other is in Sichuan. It is true that they are a bit far away from each other. Qin Qi and Qin II have not even seen each other a few times in so many years.
It was through this topic that Wei Ran learned that Xia Shushi had dragged him along this time because Qin Qi had mentioned their discovery in a casual chat when she took him to Qin II's home the day before yesterday.
Then Qin II's father mentioned it by the way at the dinner table, "The stupid young foreign student in the international news seems to be a friend of Qin II? Why don't we ask him to help us check it out too."
After figuring out the cause and effect, it was time to board the plane, so the topic stopped here. However, Wei Ran was inevitably curious, why was Qin Er's father so interested in him?
Could it be that he wants to say something nice in front of his son? It seems that their relationship between father and son is not very good?
In this random thought, Wei Ran followed Xia Shushi and boarded the plane. Soon after, the plane also took off smoothly and flew into the sky.
That afternoon, the flight the two took landed smoothly at Huanglong Airport.
Because this place is next to 9 Debt Go, almost all the people who come here are tourists. Naturally, the airport is very lively with all kinds of tour guide flags flying.
Following Xia Shushi, she found a Prado and a Great Wall pickup truck that Qin Qi borrowed from a friend in the parking lot.
The two of them didn't waste any time. After confirming that neither of them had high reflexes, they immediately drove out of the airport and headed straight to Songpan City, which was not far away. They first purchased enough supplies, and then they found a home casually as it was getting dark.
After filling up my stomach at the Little Fly Restaurant, I rushed to the hotel that Xia Shushi had booked in advance.
"We will set off early tomorrow morning"
Before Xia Shushi walked into his room, he said, "Get up early, it will take us three or four hours to drive there."
"I must have gotten up earlier than you," Wei Ran responded simply, then walked into his room and started his customary investigation.
Soon after, he made sure that the bathroom in the room was clean enough and then quietly went downstairs. While wandering around this beautiful little town, he started shopping specifically to fill all the containers in the metal book. Regarding fighting hunger, he had already
