Datang first village

Dig the bones!

It was really here to dig bones, Yan Shigu and Wei Ting looked at each other, and suddenly said with a smile: "Isn't Wei Yushi going to impeach?"

"Old Yan was joking. Since when did His Royal Highness the King of Qin do something meaningless? Not to mention digging up a bone, even if he came to dig up a hair, he would never be impeached until he saw something with his own eyes. He didn't want to be The jokes of the officials, and I don't want Yushitai to be laughed at."

Li Yuanxing mobilized 3 soldiers, together with [-] soldiers temporarily transferred from Lanzhou and Hezhou to help.

Everyone realized that Li Yuanxing didn't let the laborers enter the field. Everyone here was registered, and even the auxiliary soldiers were among the twelve guards who had worked for more than ten years.All craftsmen and servants are all from the Qin Palace.The rest are all soldiers of Zhengyuan.

Of the 4000 people transferred from Lanzhou and Hezhou, none of them were government soldiers, but all of them were the standing army in the government.

Five days, five days in a row, the excavated soil was enough to pile up a mountain, and the bones of those unknown beasts dug out were also a foot high.

But there is still no trace of dinosaur bones.

"Your Highness, the third prince of Tuyuhun asked to see him, and he sent an army of 36 vehicles as a gift."

Li Yuanxing didn't speak, but was thinking.He didn't bring Cui Dunli this time because Cui Dunli really couldn't leave.There is already a serious shortage of manpower in the Qin Palace.

"What is your Highness going to dig?" Wei Ting asked again.

Li Yuanxing glanced at Wei Ting, he knew that Wei Ting was going to help him think of an idea.First of all, it depends on what is being dug, and then decides where to meet the third prince Tuyuhun.

"The giant beast is ten feet long and weighs hundreds of thousands of catties of bones from ancient giant beasts." Li Yuanxing finally told the truth.

Everyone was stunned. The giant beast was ten feet long and weighed hundreds of thousands of catties.

The two concubines of Qin who were sitting behind the screen covered their mouths in shock, they were afraid of being impolite by shouting.

Wei Ting gasped, if such a giant beast really existed, it would be the national prestige of Datang.Not to mention using 3 people, even if 30 people dig all over this square garden, he will not be impeached.

"Your Highness, let the Tuyuhun people come in."

Li Yuanxing looked at Wei Ting, and Wei Ting continued: "Let them stay here for a few days, one is to entertain guests, the second is to return gifts, and the third is to let them see the giant beast. If necessary, we can arrange people to dig overnight! Send another [-] people around to dig up the ten miles of hills!"

Li Yuanxing smiled: "Okay, just as Wei Yushi said." Li Yuanxing turned his head and said, "Qiuxiang, let Wei Yushi check the inventory and choose a gift for the third prince."

"Yes!" The two stepped back.

I have to say that God wants to give Datang a prosperous age.Just when Murong Shun, the third prince of Tuyuhun, entered the valley, Murong Shun's horses were shocked by the loud cheers, and his subordinates could no longer control their horses.

One hundred guards in fine armor quickly lined up in front of a big tent, but the direction to welcome them was not Murong Shun's place.

In the valley, thousands of people lined up on both sides, and ten people who were obviously dressed as generals held up a piece of wood and moved quickly towards the big tent.

Is it wood?

No!It was a bone, but Murong Shun didn't understand it.Li Yuanxing patted the armrest of the chair, stood up, and walked out quickly.Without even taking a look at the direction Murong Shun came from, Murong Shunxin said what important thing made King Qin of the Tang Dynasty so nervous.

"Report to Your Highness. Dig out one foot-long bone, and there are several in the soil. The soldiers no longer use iron shovels, but use wooden shovels to separate the soil with their hands. This is the first one to be dug out. "

"Come here, and record the position and angle of the excavation in detail. Send a painter to draw a picture." Li Yuanxing turned around and said to Lu Maofeng: "Clear an open space immediately. Where the bones were dug out, they will be placed on the open space as they are. , each piece must be numbered, tell the outside, you have seen a treasure, and raise your alert level!"

Li Yuanxing ordered quickly.

Murong Shun signaled his subordinates to stop, at this moment he didn't understand what happened, he was a prince.Not to mention that he is not Tuyuhun Khan, even if he is, he will bow his noble head in the face of King Qin of Tang Dynasty.What's more, he is just a prince.

Murong Shun watched as hundreds of people quickly cleared the open space, and then transported the excavated loess over there.

Then use a huge boulder to roll it flat, sprinkle some water a little, and press it again heavily.Then it was about a foot long and looked like wood.But something that was definitely not wood was placed in the open space. Two Qin Palace guards with knives stood aside with their knives out of their sheaths. Around the open space, hundreds of heavily armed soldiers lined up.

"Report!" A strong man about 30 years old with more than a dozen knives and targets on his body rushed over.

"Your Highness, I am overjoyed. I found a round bone that looks like a skull!"

Li Yuanxing waved his hand, signaling the general to step down first.He had already noticed that the Tuyuhun people had arrived, and turned around to walk in front of Murong Shun, the third prince of Tuyuhun. Murong Shun had already dismounted, and when Li Yuanxing was ten steps away from him, he saluted first.

"Prince Shun is here for a visit, but it is impolite for me not to come out to greet you."

"His Royal Highness King Qin of the Tang Dynasty was traveling, and I happened to be inspecting military affairs in Dagu Mountain. I came here to visit, and I also want to listen to the teachings of His Royal Highness King Qin of the Tang Dynasty. Your wisdom is comparable to the sun and the moon."

It's really flattering, but fortunately, Datang didn't use the word "killing".

Li Yuanxing laughed a few times along with him: "The king came here just to find a town object for my imperial brother. Since Prince Shun is here, why don't we go and have a look together."

"His Royal Highness, please!"

"Prince please!"

At least right now, Tuyuhun and Datang haven't broken each other, although there may be a war at any time.But when it comes to the status of the prince of a country, the prince of a country.Even if you will die tomorrow, you will drink together with a smile on your face today.

Li Yuanxing knew that when Tuyuhun was in the former Sui Dynasty, he fought two battles with the Sui Dynasty.

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, there was also a military conflict with the Tang Dynasty.Now Tuyuhun himself has some troubles. First, internal factions are fighting for power. Second, he is still at war with the Tufan people in the east, and even has some troubles with the Western Turks.It's just that there is no all-round outbreak of war.

Li Yuanxing and Murong Shun walked to the excavation site side by side.

Apart from the soil here, there are stones, but under the soil layer, there is really a circle, which is obviously not a stone object.More than a dozen strong sergeants are using wooden shovels and hands to slowly clean up the surrounding soil and stones.

Slowly a huge eye socket emerged from the dirt.

"Your Highness, it's probably a skull." The general who led the way looked excited.

Now they know what kind of bone it was digging up.

Li Yuanxing nodded in satisfaction, but saw a big red flag stand up more than 50 meters away, and several people ran over immediately.

Li Yuanxing stood still, looking at the dirt with his hands behind his back.

After a while, four sergeants came over carrying a three-foot-high skull: "Your Highness!"

"It may be another one. What the king is looking for is the giant beast with a length of twelve feet. But since the rest have been found, they are numbered and put away carefully. Let the craftsmen start to make wooden boxes, inside There is a hemp rope numbering bracket, if it is damaged during transportation, it would be a pity."

"It's Your Highness!" The general pointed at the sergeants and cursed for some reason, and then hundreds of people took wooden shovels and ran into the pit where the skull was found. No small achievement.

"May I ask His Royal Highness King Qin of the Tang Dynasty, what kind of beast bones are these?"

Li Yuanxing put his hands behind his back: "About 7000 million years ago to 1000 million 6000 million years ago. These [-] million years are divided into three periods, and the overlords of the land and sea are these ancient giants. Dao, if Prince Shun is interested, he will also listen to it."

"Naturally, I am willing to learn the wisdom of His Highness King Qin."

Cui Yingying and Cui Yanyan changed into the dark blue thick linen overalls, brought their maids and their female cavalry, and they were running around on the hill without doing any help at all.Would also like to see if I can spot anything.

Li Yuanxing glanced at them from a distance, and made a gesture of invitation to Murong Shun.

The two returned to the tent, where snacks and tea had been prepared.There is wine and meat for the guests.

Murong Shun signaled his subordinates to formally hand over the gift list.Wei Ting asked his attendants to take it and held it in his hands. He simply glanced at it a few times, and then asked someone to bring up the gift he had prepared long ago.

"I didn't prepare anything for this trip, Prince Shun, please forgive me if the gift is too light!"

"It's still considered frivolous." Before Murong Shun could speak, a general from Tuyuhun jumped up: "This silk can be exchanged for a thousand sheep in Hexi. We have never seen this pearl before!"

Murong Shun smiled in embarrassment, but Li Yuanxing was generous: "Come here, take ten jars of sharp weapons and good wine from this king's estate, and give them to this bold warrior!"

The knife is a good knife, Yaozhou special steel, led by a second-class knife casting master, a good knife with exquisite workmanship.

In the eyes of the Tuyuhun people, the things of the people of Tang Dynasty are really good, whether it is the silk, the pearl, or the knife.They are all unique treasures.

But in Li Yuanxing's eyes, the Tuyuhun people are really generous, and the two-horse-drawn Cordyceps sinensis.

There is also a fern that is very common in later generations, but it is extremely rare in the Tang Dynasty.This thing also has a name called ginseng fruit!A full four-horse carriage was installed, which is naturally rare in Qinghai in later generations.

There is another thing Li Yuanxing likes, called crystal salt.It is produced in Qinghai Salt Lake, no matter the size is cube, and the color is yellow, orange, blue, pink, milky white.The largest piece that Tuyuhun gave was half a ton in weight. Let a famous Tang craftsman carve this piece, and then bring it back to later generations. It can be exchanged for gold.

Judging from Li Yuanxing's expression, Wei Ting knew that His Highness King Qin was very satisfied with the other party's gift.

What is valuable and what is not.People from all walks of life in the Tang Dynasty have a common opinion, please comment on His Royal Highness King Qin! (To be continued.)
