Panpan hurriedly came to me. She said that she had talked with Aji, a professional herb collector. He said that it was okay to climb up, but she wanted 30 yuan for hard work. Could she ask me?
"30 yuan?"
When I heard that this was too cheap! It was not proportional to what others had paid, so I directly gave him 300 yuan as a benefit fee.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, I saw someone.
The herb collector, Aji, is not tall, very young, very thin, and a bit taciturn. If I don't take the initiative to talk to him, he will never speak.
"Well...brother, do you think we should schedule the operation during the day or at night?" I asked.
This man said a few words, but I couldn't understand them, so I asked Panpan what he meant.
Panpan acted as a translator and said: "Ah...Aji said he can do it day or night. He also wants to ask you what you are doing in those coffin holes."
I was prepared and immediately showed him the archaeological certificate we obtained in Zhengding. The certificate had a seal and a photo on it, and it looked very formal.
I smiled and said: "Brother, we are from the Hebei Cultural Relics Team. We went up to take a look just to study the historical development of our local area."
This guy looked at me and grinned, showing his white teeth.
In fact, even Panpan doesn’t know our true identities as northern tomb robbers.
In the evening, it was dark.
A group of us were horrified to see it!
This young man named Aji climbed so fast. He was like a human-shaped ape, swinging back and forth on the steep and straight cliffs. He quickly climbed up to a height of over 100 meters, and the whole process was done smoothly and in one go.
.
Seeing this scene, Xiaoxuan couldn't help but complain to me and said: "Hey, tree climbing king, have you seen this? This is what you call your skills!"
Brother Yu rushed up and shouted: "Brother! Fix the rope and put it down! Then you come down!"
Soon, a coil of climbing rope was lowered, with just enough length, and then the man grabbed the rope and slowly slid down.
Douya said: "Okay Pan'er, take this guy back first. We'll call him if we need him."
Panpan had some reluctance on her face and said she wanted to go up and play with us.
Dou Sprout hugged her shoulders and coaxed with a smile: "Oh, it's really no fun! It's too dangerous. I'm worried about you getting hurt! Be good, go back and wait for me."
Don't tell me, the little chubby girl really did this. After a little coaxing from Dou Sprout, she went back with a blushing face.
After tightening my shoelaces, putting on my gloves, and checking my headlamp, I started to climb up first.
I have visited many underground tombs, but this was the first time I touched the cave tomb hidden in the sky. With the help of a rope, it was much easier to climb up. It took me more than 20 minutes to climb up.
After going up, I shook my flashlight downward to tell them that I was up.
There was a lot of wind at the entrance of the cave, and the ground was full of gravel. There were two ancient coffins placed in front of me. They had been exposed to wind and sun for too many years, and they were already rotten.
I put on my headlamp and walked carefully around the coffin. There were no antiques at all, it was just rubble.
Pushing open the lid of the coffin, I looked inside with a flashlight and saw a broken human skeleton, with teeth and other things still there.
The strange thing is that this man's skull was placed between his feet. I guess it may have been hit by some external force, which caused the skull to roll to the side of his thigh.
At that moment, I couldn't help but say: "Brother, why is your family so poor? Why don't you have any decent burial objects?"
This kind of person is called "poor coffin" in the industry. It is really so poor that apart from the bones and bones, there is not even a piece of clothing.
