The ancient tomb is not big, and the coffin in the middle has rotted away. There is a pile of dead bones inside, and there are a few broken bones scattered outside the coffin.
A large hole has been dug around the coffin. Before coming, Li Yang had asked Fang Shuqin carefully. There were a lot of copper coins dug out of the ancient tomb yesterday, but they were very scattered. It just looked like a lot, but it really didn't count.
I'm afraid it's only a few thousand pieces. If it's really a Qianlong period copper coin worth one yuan a piece, it's not worth it to those who rob it.
Dozens of people robbed thousands of worthless copper coins, but in the end each person could only sell them for a few hundred yuan at most, which was less than their wages.
There are a few small silver ingots that are worth some money, but the quantity is too small. Even if they can be sold, they won't make a lot of money, and most people won't accept them. They can only go out on the dark side or turn them into silver and sell them.
No matter which method is used, it is impossible to sell this silver ingot at a good price.
Li Yang didn't know anything about the ancient tomb, but he was very emotional when he saw it. It was this thing that aroused the greed of many people, and ended up hurting his elder brother Li Cheng. Li Yang didn't have a good impression of this ancient tomb in his heart.
.
Wu Xiaoli carefully observed the tomb arms inside and the fragments on the ground. Li Yang could not see anything special about these things.
"Mr. Zhao, you are here!"
While Li Yang and Wu Xiaoli were watching, Deng Ming outside suddenly shouted loudly. A dozen people who were standing around the ancient tomb all ran to the gate, and even the two people who were digging and searching in the ancient tomb put down their hands.
Something, climbed outside and followed it.
Li Yang and Wu Xiaoli both stood up, while Wu Xiaoli stood on a mound inside and looked outside.
At the gate, an old man with gray hair was surrounded by more than a dozen people. The old man wore a pair of glasses and looked very kind. Soon he walked to the ancient tomb and happened to see Li Li who was still in the ancient tomb.
Yang and Wu Xiaoli.
"them?"
The old man looked surprised. Both Li Yang and Wu Xiaoli looked too young. Even the youngest employees here looked much older than them. They were like children in front of these people.
"That's it, Mr. Zhao..."
Deng Ming hurriedly stepped forward and explained Li Yang's identity, especially emphasizing some things about Li Cheng being injured while protecting the ancient tomb yesterday. Mr. Zhao nodded while listening, with a happy smile on his face.
"Yes, there are very few people who know how to protect national property now. We feel relieved that schools are run by people like you!"
"Grandpa Zhao, I am Xiaoli, do you still remember me?" Wu Xiaoli, who was standing on the mound, suddenly called out. Mr. Zhao was obviously stunned for a moment, and stretched his head forward to look at Wu Xiaoli carefully.
.
"Xiao Li, it's you. You're such a big girl. How is your grandpa doing now?"
Mr. Zhao obviously recognized Wu Xiaoli and smiled happily. Even Li Yang did not expect that Wu Xiaoli was so popular and that there were people she knew in Licheng.
"She is in good health, and she was talking about you some time ago, asking if your coronary heart disease is getting better!"
Wu Xiaoli climbed out of the ancient tomb like a little girl and took Old Zhao's arm. She never heard Old Zhao's laughter. She was obviously very happy to see her familiar junior here.
"No, I haven't been out since I had bypass surgery a few years ago. If the ancient tomb I discovered this time was not in Licheng, I wouldn't be able to come here!" Mr. Zhao shook his head with a smile and said to several people on the side.
He smiled and said, "This is Liu Xuesong's granddaughter. She is a very smart child. This girl has learned at least 30% of what Old Liu is capable of!"
"It turns out she is Mr. Liu's granddaughter, no wonder!" Deng Ming said with emotion.
Liu Xuesong is a famous scholar and professor in Mingyang, as well as a master in Mingyang's collection industry. Before his retirement, Liu Xuesong had been the chief expert of the Municipal Museum. After his retirement, he was hired as a consultant. He can be said to be the most authoritative person in Mingyang.
Well, there are only a few people who can compare with Liu Xuesong, and Mr. Zhao from Licheng is one of them.
Just now, several people from the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau were a little dissatisfied with Deng Ming for letting outsiders in, but now that they heard that Wu Xiaoli was Mr. Liu's granddaughter, their dissatisfaction disappeared immediately, which shows how much prestige Mr. Liu has.
"Grandpa Zhao, we are reminiscing about old times later, so you should take a look at this ancient tomb first!"
Wu Xiaoli smiled and helped Mr. Zhao climb the ladder. It was indeed inconvenient for a man of his age to climb up and down.
"Mr. Zhao, be careful!"
Li Yang hurriedly supported Mr. Zhao below. Although he was the owner of this place, these people in front of him obviously spoke the same language, so he seemed like an outsider.
"Okay, thank you, young man, my old bones are still fine!" Mr. Zhao got down from the ladder very neatly. Judging from this action alone, it is hard to believe that he is an old man who is over seventy years old.
"Well, it's a pity. This should be a Han family tomb in the late Qianlong period. The owner of the tomb is not our local!"
Mr. Zhao carefully observed a circle of ancient tombs, then nodded and said, Wu Xiaoli immediately came up, still holding Mr. Zhao's arm and said: "Grandpa Zhao, how did you tell that the owner of this tomb is not a local?
"
Mr. Zhao shook his head with a smile: "When I asked you to learn some knowledge about tombs from me, you said you were too dirty and scared, so you were too lazy to learn and only studied those antiques. Now you know you regret it!" Mr. Zhao laughed, and then
He also said: "In the tombs of ancient people in Licheng, they did not scatter ancient coins outside the coffin, but placed some clothes and daily necessities, and money and valuables were placed in the coffin. From this, it can be seen that the tomb owner is not a local, and
The owner of this tomb is not a high-ranking official, he may be an ordinary businessman!"
"That's not right. In ancient times, there was a saying that fallen leaves return to their roots. Since this tomb can be buried with so many copper coins and silver, then his family should be able to bring him back to his hometown!" Wu Xiaoli tilted her head and suggested.
doubt.
"Ancient people are not necessarily buried in their hometown after death. They may also ask a Feng Shui master to choose a different place with better Feng Shui for burial. A few years ago, a tomb of a second-rank official from the Qing Dynasty was discovered in Pearl River. That official was not from Pearl River!"
Mr. Zhao said with a smile. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly knelt down and picked up something.
"Something's wrong?" Mr. Zhao muttered to himself, his brows slowly knitting together. Others went down to the ancient tomb to surround Mr. Zhao, but Li Yang was squeezed to the outside.
"What's this?"
There was a question from Wu Xiaoli in the back, and the heads around her all moved forward. Li Yang could only vaguely see Mr. Zhao looking through something like a small stone, but he couldn't see clearly what it was.
, the people in front blocked the view.
"Do you think you can't see it if you block it?"
Li Yang chuckled and rubbed his hands unnaturally. He was less than two meters away from Mr. Zhao, and his special ability allowed him to see clearly what Mr. Zhao was looking at. Li Yang also wanted to know what it was.
What caused old scholars like Mr. Zhao to wonder.
The three-dimensional picture appeared again, and everything around him appeared in Li Yang's mind. Behind Li Yang was the coffin, and all the skeletons inside were clearly displayed.
Li Yang shivered, and the withered bones looked even more terrifying under the three-dimensional screen. Li Yang could only run to the other side of the ancient tomb, away from those skeletons.
Li Yang finally saw clearly what Old Zhao was holding. It was a small piece of stone. Normally, Li Yang wouldn't even look at such a stone.
Li Yang shook his head and leaned back, feeling uncomfortable being squeezed with the people in front of him.
"Huh?"
Li Yang was suddenly stunned. He walked back, and the three-dimensional picture naturally moved backward. At the bottom edge of the picture, a neat brick suddenly appeared.
Li Yang subconsciously walked to the side and squatted down. The bricks became bigger and bigger, and there were more and more. What finally appeared in Li Yang's mind was a stone wall composed of blue bricks.
There are actually oil lamps hanging there, but these oil lamps have no oil inside and are hanging deserted on the stone wall.
