Chapter 385 Old File

385 Chapter 385 Old Files

Wu Xie was also very uneasy. He also suspected that the function of this thick chain was probably not just for locking the door, but he did not dare to think too much, fearing that he would only scare himself. It only increases worries.

The two of them carefully pulled out the rusty iron chain and put it aside. The rusty scum was all over their hands. Wang Meng curled his lips and clapped his hands with a look of disgust. Wu Xie pulled it away without any hesitation. He broke the seal and said, "Let's go."

The two began to walk down. Although Wu Xie comforted himself, "There's nothing to be afraid of," he still became a little nervous unconsciously. He took a few breaths unconsciously, and ended up choking on the dust that exploded. The dust irritated the nasal cavity, and the suffocating feeling of being suddenly stuck was very uncomfortable, and tears suddenly flowed out.

Wu Xie pulled up his T-shirt to cover his mouth and nose, and shined a flashlight on it. He saw that the stairs in front of him were in a mess, with countless old tables and chairs piled inside.

Wang Meng covered his mouth and said: "This is really dirty, full of dust. No one has been here for a long time. Boss, there must be a door over there."

Wu Xie continued to walk down, and soon they came to a door. Wu Xie took a look, stretched out his hand and pushed it, and found that the door was also unlocked.

He looked around and found that the size of this room was exactly the same as the one above. But looking around, he only saw that it was filled with countless clutter. He did not see any files. There was no place where files could be stored. You can't even tell where it is, it's just a junk warehouse.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Wu Xie felt depressed for a moment, and sighed in disappointment: "It's such a thick gray, I'm afraid these things were piled here when the house was built." But he was a little bit immortal. Heart, continue to shine the flashlight everywhere.

At this moment, he suddenly discovered that there were messy footprints on the ground. The footprints were covered with a layer of dust. It was obvious that it had been a long time since he stepped on them. Although the footprints were stacked in one line, it could be seen that they should be Two or three people came out, their steps were very erratic, heading straight into the warehouse.

Wu Xie led Wang Meng and continued to move forward by following those footprints. As he moved forward, he looked at the debris around him, but they all seemed to be unexplainable things.

Suddenly, the series of footprints began to look a little different. On top of the three-story large footprints, a pair of much smaller footprints appeared. This small footprint came from stepping on top of this series of footprints.
Wu Xie and Wang Meng both stared at it. Wang Meng said, "It's so small. It must be the footprints of a woman. You're brave enough to come to a place like this."

Wu Xie looked at it carefully and said: "This should be the mark of a pair of 35 round-toe shoes. Look carefully. The mark on the heel of this mark is lighter, but the front is still very solid. I think these small feet are not as big as 35 at all." , I guess she is only 34 years old. A girl with such small feet has something to do with this matter, let alone I actually know one."

Wang Meng asked: "Ah? Who is it?"

Wu Xie smiled and said nothing, but Wang Meng thought for a moment and said, "Oh," "I know who it is."

Wu Xie said: "Are you sure? Let me tell you, these were probably stepped on when the incident happened that year, but these small footprints must have been stepped on last. I just can't figure out how they came from halfway. .”

Wang Meng was confused again for a moment and said "Oh" blankly.

Hearing what he said, I remembered that my feet seemed to be so big, and I thought to myself, maybe he thought they were my footprints, but in my memory, I have no impression that I have been there, but my memory It was also incomplete. Maybe I had been there before, so I glanced at the spiritual power video interface curiously and glanced at the pair of small footprints.

I just turned my head and looked at it for a few times, when the little brother held my head down and twisted it back to the notebook.

Bai Hao handed me a pen and paper and said, "I'm slipping again. Let's memorize it while drawing. It will deepen my memory."

I took the pen and paper, lowered my eyes, bit my lower lip, and looked at the notebook sadly, tracing on the paper so that I could quickly remember the things I didn't understand very well.

Wu Xie and the others walked a few steps deeper. They could vaguely see many large wooden boxes in front of them. Wang Meng sighed and said, "Wow, there are so many big boxes."

Wu Xie looked at the box and muttered: "Could there be any clues in this?"

Wang Meng looked at him and said, "Boss, don't scare me. We just can't handle these boxes."

Wu Xie sighed "Yes" and said: "These boxes are a bit big, and they are so messy. Even if we can move the boxes, we still can't open them. Let's go over there first."

Soon they reached the end of the warehouse, where there were slightly less debris. The footprints led to a large square box, which was covered with something.

Wu Xie squatted down and found that the footprints extended all the way to the bottom of the box. The location of the box was very unreasonable.

Wang Meng suddenly pointed in a direction and said to him: "Boss, look at this thing here, it's obviously used to block something."

Wu Xie saw that from the perspective of the box and the corner, there would definitely be a space between it, and there might indeed be something hidden behind it, so he said to Wang Meng, "Go and push it away."

Wang Meng's face turned green when he was shocked, "Huh?" he said, "Boss, this..."

Wu Xie said: "Ah, what, just go if I ask you to!"

Wang Meng was afraid, but he had no choice but to swallow his saliva and push the box carefully.

Wang Meng pushed it a few times and said, "No, this box is too heavy." He looked at Wu Xie pitifully, and Wu Xie winked at him, indicating that he should continue.

Wang Meng took a deep breath, and with enough strength, he continued to push it up. His face gradually turned the color of pig liver, and then he pushed the box aside and leaned against the wall, breathing heavily.

Wu Xie took a flashlight and saw that there were several piles of files hidden in the corner behind.

These files looked very old, had been eaten to pieces by rats, and were covered with a layer of rat droppings.

Wu Xie casually took out one and shook it, raising a cloud of ash all over his face. It must have been turned over by no one, otherwise it wouldn't be like this. Wu Xie hurriedly told Wang Meng: "Look carefully, are there any suspicious places?" ?”

Wang Meng tiptoed among the piles of documents. After a while, he discovered something called Wu Xie: "Boss, look at this. There are a few piles of documents placed very neatly on the ground. It seems that they were placed this way on purpose. This must be true." has a problem."

Wu Xie walked over and saw four stacks of documents arranged side by side into a square.

Wang Meng said: "Boss, do you think this is what it means? This man was looking through documents here and felt that standing was too tiring, so he made a stool out of these documents."

Wu Xie nodded after hearing this and thought it made sense. He began to think about the situation at that time. The man sat on the document stool so that he could see more carefully.He turned 360 degrees on the spot, trying to determine which direction the man was facing when he was sitting. At this moment, he discovered that if he was facing the back, the shelf on one side could fit a flashlight as a light.

He continued talking about the situation replaying in his mind, putting the flashlight on the shelf and looking down at his feet.

He pushed aside the dust, and there were several old cigarette butts in front of him, and there was a stack of documents right in front of him.

There is a large envelope among this pile of documents, which weighs at least four or five kilograms by visual inspection. It is impossible to hold the scattered documents in your hands and read them, so the pile in front of you may be used as a table.

Wu Xie gestured that he should put what he was reading on here, and then smoked while reading. He couldn't help but said: "Damn, this guy is quite leisurely! But what document did he read? Maybe he found it I took what I needed with me.”

Having said that, Wu Xie started to flip through the documents a few times. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind: "That's right! That may be the case."

This sound startled Wang Meng, and he asked tremblingly: "What?"

Wu Xie said: "If "I" really wrote the seal, how would I view these documents?"

Wang Meng said: "When you usually read a document, you always fold the pages you have read in your right hand while thinking about it. When it reaches a certain thickness, you put it far away and put it aside very neatly."

Wu Xie said: "Yes, give me a document."

Wang Meng immediately handed him an envelope. He opened the envelope, placed it on the "table" in front of him, picked up one and flipped it over, and then picked it up and put it down as usual.

Wu Xie smiled and said: "When I organize rubbings, the entire table is often full of papers and it is very messy. I like to put the things I have organized far away to distinguish them from other documents. And The distance you let go must be within reach of your hand.”

He looked around, looking for a place within this distance that he could use to put things. Sure enough, he saw a pile of paper stacked on a box on his right. He reached over and found that the distance was just right.

While feeling happy, his heart skipped a beat, and his hand stopped in front of the document. He became even more confused and said, "But if this is the case, doesn't it prove that the person looking at things here is really me?"

Wu Xie hesitated for a moment and took the paper over, muttering: "What the hell! I've already died once anyway, what's there to worry about?"

Then he put a stack of files on the pile of documents in front of him and opened it. The first one was a form, which seemed to contain the allowance budget. There were also several names of people. The Soviets had the highest allowances of 440, [-] and [-]. Yuan.He pursed his lips and nodded, saying, "A few decades ago, such a large amount of allowance would have been an astronomical figure."

Soon he noticed the words in the corner of the form: Subsidy list for expatriate personnel of the archaeological project of Zhangjiapu site in Shangsi, Guangxi.

My heart said, right!This is it!

He hurriedly continued flipping through and found that all the pages had been scrambled. Below was an extension of the table, which contained some names. At the end there was a stamp from the Institute of Archeology, and a date of [-].

Continuing to scroll back, there is a summary of some information, and it is all handwritten records, recording the room number, length and width: there are also schematic diagrams, all written by complete strangers, the handwriting is sloppy, and it is obvious that not one person is recording it. these things.

He continued to quickly turn to pages fourteen or five before he saw something different.

With a "swish" sound, something thin slipped from the document and fell to the ground. Wu Xie picked it up and wiped the dirt. He took a look in his hand and found that it was a metal piece with a small unicorn engraved on it. logo.

Xin Xin said, he has seen this sign before. Isn’t this the sign used by Xiaoxun’s family? He looked carefully. At this moment, a faint purple light suddenly appeared around the sign. Wu Xie and Wang Meng were stunned. With a flash of "pop", the sign disappeared, Wu Xie's eyes widened, and Wang Meng took a breath of air.

Wu Xie asked Wang Meng: "Did you see anything?"

Wang Meng looked horrified and said: "The thing in your hand is missing."

Wu Xie looked at his hands, then at the ground, shook the documents in his hands, and was stunned for a while, because neither of them could explain what just happened.

After calming down, he continued to look at the document in his hand. It was a floor plan of something, but it was not a modern professional floor plan, but a very ancient picture drawn with a brush. He knew it after looking at it and said: "This is the "style thunder" of the Qing Dynasty."

Hearing Wu Xie's words, I stopped writing. The styles in the Guangxi materials were what I was memorizing.

I tilted my head and looked at the drawing in front of me, and then I heard the very familiar sound of "ding bell~ ding bell~" ringing in my ears. At the same time, the little brother said: "Bell."

Bai Hao said "Ah", and then, a purple light flashed from the center of the spiritual power video, and a purple spiritual seedling floated out in an instant, and floated in front of me.

Although this is not the first time, Ziyan Lingmiao appears suddenly every time, and I am still a little scared. I smiled bitterly and said to Lingmiao: "Let me tell you, I have been to Guangxi, so logically there should be It was left behind by a spiritual seedling, and it turned out to be hidden in the information."

The spirit seedlings flickered, as if answering me "yes".

I said to Ling Miao: "Be gentle, I'm still injured."

The spirit seedling flickered again, as if it understood what I said, and then it got into my head with an unceremonious "swish". My mind suddenly became blurred, and I seemed to have fallen off the mat.

Zhang Qiling picked me up and held me in his arms. He held up my little head with one hand, caressed my face, and watched the red flowers on my forehead flashing, with many small red dots floating around.

Bai Hao was a little surprised and asked: "Well, the spirit seedling belongs to Yan'er, right?"

Zhang Qiling said "yes".

Bai Hao thought for a while and said, "I understand. This is the spiritual power left by Yan'er. I said that this girl's total spiritual power has grown rapidly. I see."
