Location: The excavation site of Yin Ruins somewhere in Henan Province.
Characters: Members of the W Bureau archaeological team, Professor Gu Zhenting, etc.
"Feng Chun, good to see you. You wrote earlier and said that the statement that the Xia Dynasty ruins are in Erlitou needs to be discussed. I agree with your statement, but for now, both the proponents and opponents still lack evidence.
To explain my point of view, let’s wait for new archaeological discoveries to provide more evidence. I am currently in charge of excavation of a site in the Yin and Shang Dynasties in Henan, and the quantity and quality of the unearthed cultural relics have brought us unprecedented surprises.
There are more than 600 oracle bones with characters engraved on them. Experts are still deciphering these characters. However, the bronzes unearthed from Pit No. 7 today stunned all the workers involved in the excavation. The thinking we had established before was completely destroyed.
Subverted. Do you know what we excavated? You will definitely not expect it! We excavated 13 lifelike bronze masks and bronze figures. Did you think of anything? By the way! These are basically the same series of bronzes unearthed at the Sanxingdui site in Shu.
Based on my inspection experience in Sanxingdui, I can even judge that these bronzes are even made by the same group of craftsmen."
Gu Zhenting took a puff of cigarette, and then slowly blew out the smoke. In the tent, the weak light shone on the paper, and the pencil writing looked vigorous and powerful. But at this time, he seemed a little absent-minded, and he had something to say in his heart.
Stopped. The wind and rain outside were raging, and the tent was being beaten by the strong wind and rain, making a crackling sound. Gu Zhenting thought for a moment and wrote on the paper:
"Currently, Pit No. 7 is still being excavated day and night. I believe there are greater harvests to come. If you can, please take the time to come and take a look. With your ability, I think you can get a definite answer. This batch of
What is the connection between cultural relics and Sanxingdui Cultural Relics and Civilization System in Shu Sanxingdui, Cuba?" When Gu Zhenting wrote this, he suddenly sighed. "We, father and son, have not talked about each other for almost two years, and we miss them so much." Gu Zhenting said these last words
When writing a few words, the pen tip trembled a little.
Gu Zhenting always feels guilty towards his son Gu Fengchun. Gu Fengchun lost his mother when he was young, and Gu Zhenting ran away for many years, so he had to foster Gu Fengchun in his work unit. Therefore, Gu Fengchun lacked the love of his father and mother since he was a child.
.
Gu Zhenting’s unit is W Bureau. After decades of development, W Bureau has grown to a very large scale. There are many outstanding scientific researchers in it, as well as many extraordinary people from the private sector. Gu Fengchun is in such an environment.
I grew up here and learned a lot here. After Gu Fengchun was 15 years old, he followed Gu Zhenting to participate in various archaeological activities and learned a lot of experience. Gu Fengchun had a special understanding of cultural relic appraisal.
He has a unique talent, and he can judge the authenticity just by touching it with his hands. This ability has surprised many people.
Gu Fengchun stayed with Gu Zhenting for several years. Later, Gu Zhenting felt that he did not have much to teach his talented and intelligent son, so when Gu Fengchun was eighteen years old, Gu Zhenting sent him to a family
He studied archeology in a famous university. From then on, Gu Fengchun and Gu Zhenting spent less time together and more apart. Seven or eight years passed in the blink of an eye. Gu Fengchun, who graduated from the university, originally wanted to return to work with his father, but Gu Zhenting
Considering the particularity of his identity and background, he deliberately did not let Gu Fengchun get involved in his research area. However, whenever he completed a project, he compiled his notes and sent them to Gu Fengchun, so that Gu Fengchun could experience the archaeological process.
strange process.
"Our archeology is a top-secret activity this time. You'd better not come. Once you come, you have to participate in the whole process. This process is arduous and long. This time we are mainly verifying an ancient legend. We have a
Ancient books..." Gu Zhenting thought for a while and sighed. He didn't want to continue writing about these contents.
"Professor, no, something happened in Pit No. 7." The door of the tent was suddenly opened, and Gu Zhenting saw a frightened face. It was his assistant Wu Haode. Due to the strange cultural relics unearthed in Pit No. 7, the archaeological team
In order to find more clues, he worked in two shifts and worked day and night. Of course, Gu Zhenting also believed that in addition to the secret buried in Pit No. 7, there was a bigger mystery in it.
"What's wrong?" Gu Zhenting put down the pen in his hand, "Xiao Wu, you have been following me for several years. How have I taught you over the years? Archeology is a delicate job. There is no need to rush or panic." Gu Zhenting
Seeing the heavy rain, Wu Haode didn't even wear a raincoat and was already soaked. As lightning passed by, Wu Haode's face became extremely pale and his lips were frozen purple. The excavation site of Pit No. 7 was a few meters away from the tent.
It's almost 500 meters away. It seems like he ran all the way from there.
"No, professor, something big has happened," Wu Haode looked livid and panicked, "We may have dug that thing." Wu Haode has been with Gu Zhenting for many years, and has seen all kinds of wind and waves, but this
One time, he was particularly panicked. "What, really?" Gu Zhenting was startled and couldn't calm down anymore. He picked up a raincoat next to him and put it on himself.
"I don't know. Take a look. When we dug down, a pool of blood gushed out, and everyone present panicked." Wu Haode said anxiously.
"Look at what you are making a fuss about!" Gu Zhenting said displeasedly, "What a big deal this is." Although the words were said easily, Gu Zhenting's heart sank, "Did you really dig it?" Gu Zhenting thought in his heart
Surprised and delighted.
This archaeological operation was a large-scale archaeological operation that Bureau W had carefully planned for several years. The person who presided over the entire activity was Gu Zhenting, who focused on the history of the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties. He had extremely profound knowledge and unique insights into these three dynasties.
He has many insights and rich archaeological experience in this area. Although Gu Zhenting has never seen such a thing, he has made a lot of preparations in advance.
Gu Zhenting said without hesitation, "You call Colonel Zhang and Chen Wenming over right away. I'll wait for them at the scene first." He put on his raincoat and headed out. He was over fifty years old, and his nimble movements were even more impressive than those of an average young man.
No one can compare to him.
"Colonel Zhang has been there all along, and Chen Magnet has also rushed over." Wu Haode continued what he said. Colonel Zhang is the leader of the guard team sent by Bureau W.
"So fast!" Gu Zhenting was startled. This Colonel Zhang is a workaholic, as energetic as a cow. He usually sleeps for two or three hours a day and is full of energy. It is normal for him to be still at the excavation site at this time.
But that Chen Wenming was a sick man. He had nothing to do at ordinary times and was unwilling to even step out of the tent. However, this man specialized in architecture and knew ancient architecture well. What was rare was that he was also very familiar with the structure of ancient tombs.
He only needs to walk around the ground, without using a Luoyang shovel or other gadgets, just a few feet, and he will know whether there is an ancient tomb underground. No matter how deep it is, he can accurately judge it. So everyone also
Calling him a magnet means that ancient ruins are like needles dropped in the grass, and they can be sucked out by shaking them.
"I called him to inform him." Wu Haode said with a wry smile. Gu Zhenting is not only an archaeologist, but his living habits are also close to those of the ancients. Nowadays, he basically does not use communication tools, such as mobile phones, computers, etc., he can
Just try not to touch it. Flash forward to a few years ago, when he wrote letters to Gu Fengchun, he still used brush ink. But after years of archaeological work outside, it was difficult to replenish the ink when it ran out, so he switched to other substitute pens.
Gu Zhenting was slightly apologetic and smiled slightly, "I'd better use my mobile phone as well. It's too hard for you to run around all the time."
"That's good." Wu Haode was afraid that Gu Zhenting would regret it. "Professor, I will give you one tomorrow. Don't be polite to me." He had to go back and forth to several places every day because he couldn't keep in touch with Gu Zhenting.
Conveniently, he is so tired.
"Haha, then I'm not polite, but I'm being disrespectful." Gu Zhenting said as he quickly stepped into the heavy rain. Wu Haode's tense nerves seemed to be infected by Gu Zhenting's optimistic mood.
