Chapter 612 Adventure
The old man sighed and pushed his glasses with thick bottoms.

"I can only say this. From the pictures, it can be inferred that the stone carvings will only be painted with gold. The grottoes were built later than 33 days ago. After all, this thing was not accomplished overnight.

As for the original building of 33 days, it can be verified that it was in the northern Liang period of the Sixteen Kingdoms. It was 43 meters from the highest point on the ground, with seven floors and 21 caves, and there are many mountains. Of course, most of what is left today are restored by later generations. There are also many murals completely destroyed.

The proven and reliable date of completion was at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. No, after 1423, it should be considered as the middle of the Ming Dynasty, because we have collected a local county annals in the Longyou Provincial Museum, which has an accurate year record. It can be concluded that 1423 was 33 days The seventh floor of the grotto was completed and the incense was flourishing.

As for this, to be honest, it looks too new. I don’t know what words to use to describe the carving techniques and painted paintings. I haven’t seen the real thing, so I can’t distinguish it. The traces drawn by the paint on the top and the dripping part are a little perfunctory, perfunctory!

To be honest, although Longyou Province is not a major archaeological province, there are also large-scale excavation sites of the tombs of various ethnic groups in the local area. What's more, it flows like this. "

Zhou Ning understood. It seems that this expert went to the Ganzhou City Museum to look at the coffin that was taken out earlier. He did not observe carefully in the cave at that time. Several are very beautiful, and completely narrative style lacquer painting.

Zhou Ning thought that he could get some clues from them, but now he denied the judgment of the ancient site, which made Zhou Ning a little bit astonished.

At the moment when Zhou Ning was silent, he didn't know if it was the wind blowing, or because the tarpaulin wrapping the coffins was lifted, a gust of wind and sand blew, and a corner of the tarpaulin was lifted, exposing the coffins.

When the expert raised his eyes, he happened to see this scene.

He paused for a moment, then rushed directly towards these coffins, moved eagerly, without stepping on his feet firmly, and pushed away the young man who was about to support him, carefully observed the patterns on them, and held up a magnifying glass to examine them.

Da Zhao leaned over with a smile, raised his eyebrows at Zhou Ning, leaned into Zhou Ning's ear and said:

"Seeing that the top is missing, it is estimated that the coffins transported back are not the first few. The patterns and the narrative of the patterns on them are not coherent, and they are even in a hurry. This thing is easy to understand, after all, Boyegu has been destroyed."

Curator Cui nodded along, wondering if he was educated by the leaders of the city, anyway, now he has lost the bad habits he saw back then, and is still very modest and prudent.

"This expert is a real expert, but the coffin we transported back was the last one, because to remove the wooden beam supporting the bottom, we need to start from the last one. I really didn't notice the double eyelids on that coffin Paint marks."

Da Zhao suppressed a smile.

"Looking at Mr. Feng, I still need to watch for a while. I will greet our people first, and prepare to climb the mountain. Although there are wooden ladders, it will take time to go up."

Zhou Ning nodded, and everyone unloaded their cars and started queuing up, ready to go up the mountain. Seeing that Mr. Feng hadn't finished yet, curator Cui rushed to urge him. Look at the photos in the camera.

Seeing Zhou Ning looking over, Mr. Feng quickly cupped his hands, completely like the older generation, this action startled Zhou Ning.

"Old man, what is this for?"

"My old man is talking nonsense. I just took pictures of all the coffins. There are six of them. One should be transported on the way. The Ganzhou Museum stores the last one of the eight coffins. The drawing is very scribbled, and the paint coloring and gilding feel rushed.

Such a thing, no matter in the tomb or the depiction of the murals, is completely impossible to appear. We have checked many murals, and there are traces of revision errors, and the murals are painted in layers. How many years have passed? It needs to be done again , is similar to the way we save it now, repairing the old for the old, I don't know if you can understand it? "

"I understand. What Feng Lao means is that purely from the perspective of craftsmanship and hasty methods, this is not like the ancient methods. We don't understand these. Professionals should do it. I want you to see it yourself. You should have your own judgment about the scene inside the cave, so let's set off quickly."

Mr. Feng nodded quickly, and tidied up his backpack and belongings. Zhou Ning had already walked to the front of the team, holding a horn, and said directly:

"The arrangement of the groups has been agreed before departure. After going up, those who should go to get the cocoons will go to get them. Those who should check the outer main cave and the two holes in the cave will also go separately. The first group of southbound exploration, please Keep up with our speed, in order to save energy, we will go up in one group first, and go up in one group every 10 minutes, and we will start now."

Everyone started to move, and Mr. Feng didn't look at the pictures in the camera, nor did he stare at the coffin. At this moment, he wished he could fly up.

The climbing speed this time was very fast, the preparation was sufficient, and there was no need to choose the path. I also made a wooden ladder and arrived at the entrance of the cave in more than 20 minutes. A platform has been built here, and objects can be directly suspended by pulleys at the col.

Several people entered the cave, and most of them were wearing devices similar to miner's lamps. Zhou Ning and the others wore special spectacle lamps and took a short rest for 5 minutes. Mr. Feng ran to see the murals of Buddha statues, and then everyone turned towards the coffin. Depart from the cave on the side.

The entrance of the cave is not small, 1.5 meters wide and less than [-] meters high. After entering the passage, after walking through a narrow passage, it gradually becomes wider, and it is obvious that the foot is going uphill.

After traveling several hundred meters, the clear sound of water could be heard. At this time, Da Zhao stopped in front of him, and Zhou Ning hurried over. The big bright flashlight here seemed to be unable to reach the edge.

"What did you find?"

Da Zhao pointed to the dark place ahead, held up a bright flashlight and said:

"A hundred meters ahead, there are no traces of artificial excavation. It looks very wide. There are logs on the ground here, not very long, scattered around. The debris on the ground, if you look closely, are also decayed logs. It looks like a lot. It’s also very old, Mr. Feng, come and take a look.”

Old Feng walked briskly, and moved closer. He looked left and right before looking at the wood, then took a few steps forward, observed the space, and picked up the wood back and forth to observe carefully.

"As I guessed, here is a gap in the hollow of the mountain. Those logs should be used to transport coffins. The soft parts on the ground are all rotten debris. These logs should be local materials, and they are not corrupted. They are all Chinese fir, the tree that fell from the entrance of the cave.

As for the corrupted ones, it smells like pine oil. I think it’s pine wood, which is not as corrosion-resistant as fir wood, and you can hear the sound of water here not far away. We can look around. This kind of strong-light flashlight has limited vision. The kind of diffused light is fine, and the brightness should be sufficient. "

Before Feng Lao could finish his sentence, Da Zhao had already walked tens of meters forward, then turned on the LED light in his hand, lifted it up, and instantly the whole space was illuminated.

Curator Cui also came over and was very interested in the things in Da Zhao's hands. He asked where he bought them several times, and Da Zhao told him about online shopping.

Zhou Ning and Feng Lao followed the light and walked to a position more than ten meters ahead.

The whole space is not particularly high, similar to the main hole in front of the hole, but it is very narrow and long, and the end cannot be seen from the left and right, and the words echo, and there are three or four holes that are about the same size as this side can be seen from the opposite side.

But if they wanted to go there, they had to cross a very wide and deep ravine in the middle. The two walked to the edge of the ravine, squatted down and looked carefully, only to find that the sound of water came from here.
