Uncle Hu Lu told a story about his first love. You can hear some sadness in the tone of his story telling.
After hearing this, I said: "People are like this. I think you are doing well now. Your wife and children are on the bed, and you don't have to worry about money. What happened back then is in the past."
Dou Ya held her chin and pretended to be profound: "This is youth. No one has perfect youth, and there is always a little bit of regret. At this moment, I want to write a poem: Youth, youth, boy, boy, first love, first love,
My dream, my dream.”
"vomit!"
Xiaoxuan kept vomiting and said stop it quickly. You only have five years of compulsory education in primary school. Don't be disgusting.
Douyazai curled his lips and said he didn't care, saying that if you have the guts, you can have one too.
"What's wrong?" Amidst the laughter, I saw his head and brows furrowed.
"Head? Head?" I called twice.
He came back to his senses and said softly: "Yunfeng, take the needle over and look down here."
I looked at the place she was pointing at and said, "That's a big stone. What's the point of giving an injection all of a sudden? It's not an initiation."
The head said you try it, he felt something was wrong.
ps://m．
vp.
I said yes and went to Luotuo to get the empowerment needle.
There were many brick tombs in the Ming and Qing dynasties, while there were many stone tombs in the previous dynasties. The initiation needle, also called the diamond needle, was specially used to deal with stone tomb roofs. Some people from the northern sect still use it, while some people from the southern sect have abandoned this tool.
Use explosives instead. Initiation needles are available in regular sizes ranging from 1 meter to 1.5 meters, with a small hook on the tip of the front. To use it, draw a circle on the top of the stone tomb, and make two cross holes to make a hole in the top of the tomb.
"Here?" I asked, pointing at the location.
After talking about it, he called Dou Sprout to come over and help me.
I found a stone to use as a hammer, and when I set a certain point, I started to hit it. Douyazai was inexperienced, so he almost hit my hand the first few times. I moved my hand down and said, Yazai, please look more accurately.
The empowerment needle is very powerful in breaking stones, but after a few hits, I felt something was wrong.
This big stone has a hard upper layer and a soft lower layer, so it is not difficult at all.
Very strange.
I said what's going on? Is it because it's been weathered for too long in the desert? Another thing that's strange is that the crushed stone is dark and black in color.
"It seems that my guess is correct. This stone has been burned for a long time before."
"Burned? What do you mean by turning your head?"
He stamped his head and said: "The piece under our feet is sand and gravel. The hardness of sand and gravel will decrease after it has been burned by fire. It has been like this for many years, but soft stone and bluestone will not. It seems that this stone has experienced blackening in the past.
The fire in Shuicheng.”
We are not sure exactly what this stone was used for back then. It might have been a load-bearing wall of a building somewhere in the city, or it might have been a paving stone on the east-west avenue of Blackwater City. This shows that we have entered the territory of Blackwater City.
.
The boss has studied Heishui City before. He said that from the few remaining historical materials, the original Heishui City was rectangular and was the headquarters of the Heishan Weifu Division of the 12th Supervisory Army of the Western Xia Dynasty. The city was divided into east and west parts, and the west city was the official residence of officers and soldiers.
Institutions and Buddhist temples, Dongcheng is a commercial and residential area for civilians. There is an east-west avenue tens of meters wide between the east and west cities. This road runs through the entire city. On both sides of the avenue, there are restaurants, teahouses, brothels and grain shops, and hundreds of
There are many small merchants and hawkers, such as those who sell candied haws, those who sell braised vegetables, those who trim horseshoes, those who cut hair, etc.
More than seven hundred years have passed, and there have been natural disasters, wars, and sandstorms. This prosperous city on the Silk Road has long since disappeared, leaving only a handful of yellow sand and gravel and some ruins in Alxa.
At this time, Uncle Hu Lu pointed to the northeast and said something. Where he pointed, it was pitch black and he saw nothing.
Aji said: "Uncle said that if he remembers correctly, if you walk in that direction for a long time, you can see several stone spiers that have fallen on the ground. That is where we plan to go tomorrow. The spiers were still there two or three years ago.
I saw it, but I don’t know if it is still there now, it may have been covered by sand.”
Boutou and I looked at each other, and I could feel the excitement in his eyes. The fire-burned paving stones and stone tower spiers were enough to prove that we were not in the wrong place.
"Everyone, get some rest quickly and head out early tomorrow," the leader ordered.
Everyone responded and went back to their tents to rest and sleep.
A night of silence.
We were woken up before dawn the next day. The place Uncle Hulu mentioned was about thirty kilometers away from here, and we had to get up early and be on our way.
There was no water to wash my face and I got up so early. On the way, Douyazai was lying on the camel listlessly. I asked Douyazai, can you be more energetic?
Dou Sprout yawned and pointed to the sky and said, "It's not even bright yet, why don't you sleep more?"
Xiaoxuan rode a camel and leaned over and kicked Dou Sprout, "Pig, you sleep every day and forget what we came for?"
Dou Sprout lay on the camel's neck and laughed, saying that the eldest lady's kick was really comfortable, so he could give her a kick.
So cheap.
As we walked, the sky gradually grew brighter, and Aji suddenly pointed ahead and said, "Look over there."
Looking in the direction Aji said, I saw some stone spires lying scattered on the yellow sand, as well as two polished and trimmed long stone strips, which looked like door beams or foundations.
Speed up and run over, jumping off the camel head first.
Buddhism was the state religion of Xixia. At that time, the local government allowed ordinary man-made pagodas to be used for worship. This resulted in the largest number of pagodas in the country. As an important city on the border of Xixia, Heishui City had many types of pagodas built by believers themselves. This is
The planting pagoda is called the support pagoda. The large one is more than ten meters high, and the small one is one or two meters high.
The spiers we saw were half buried in the soil. Judging from the size of the exposed parts, if these support towers were complete, their original height should be about three to five meters.
Blackwater City is a city, not a tomb. Our goal is to dig out some things that were in the city back then.
Who knows what can be excavated from such a large place, including stone carvings, building components, wooden books, gold and silverware, daily necessities, pots and pans, etc.
Although we knew that the chance was slim, we all thought about where to dig out an Ashoka Pagoda and how easy it would be to sell. We have experienced it, and we all tasted the sweetness, it is so fragrant.
It doesn't take much technical skills to dig holes in this place. There are no mountains or water, and there is plain desert as far as the eye can see. It is useless to look at the mountains and rivers to see the dragon's veins. There is really no good way.
At that time, Kozlov hired people to dig randomly in the sand, and we did the same. Each of us carried a shovel, and dug a hole here and there. When we dug more than one meter deep and nothing came out, we changed places.
Not to mention, beating the old master to death with random punches is really something.
On the first day, Douyazai dug up a small lion carved from bluestone, but unfortunately only half of it was broken. Xiaoxuan dug out a rotten futon, the kind used for chanting sutras. My head and I were unlucky enough not to see anything, and Aji dug it out.
An object similar to a rolling pin, made of stone.
The first day of receiving goods here can be summed up in one sentence.
