Chapter 398 Bronze Axe

Such a big thing happened in the expert building.

We must first let Mr. Xu have a bottom line in his heart.

Although when I was in the expert building, I made a "person" out of it.

But anyway, all kinds of things happened after Dean Huang took me in.

Once checked up.

I'm worried that the old manager will set the fire on Mr. Xu.

We didn't call.

He went straight to his studio in Huiyun Hotel.

Mr. Xu told me last time.

He usually does not go to bed until one or two in the morning, and usually works in the studio when he is not sleeping.

But Mr. Cui was not at the door of the conference room.

Open the studio.

I found that Mr. Xu was not there either.

I called Mr. Xu.

Mr. Xu didn't answer.

Call Mr. Cui again.

Mr. Cui told me: "Mr. Xu is on the second floor arranging tasks for the archaeological team for next week, and I'm working outside. You go to the door of the meeting room on the second floor and wait for a while."

We went up to the second floor.

Sit on a bench outside the conference room door.

Sure enough, Mr. Xu was having a meeting inside.

Judging from the voice that came out, it was probably talking about the finishing work of the archaeological work of the Western Zhou tomb.

but.

From the pitch it sounds.

Mr. Xu seemed very angry, as if some major problem had arisen during the archaeological work.

I took out a cigarette.

Seeing this, Lu Cenyin immediately jumped up from the seat, staring at me with a pretty face in surprise and anger.

She was bitten by a snake with a trick, and she was afraid of well ropes for ten years.

I said, "This is normal smoke."

Lu Cenyin replied: "Who knows if you are normal or not, anyway, don't smoke!"

I had to put away my cigarettes.

Lu Cenyin sat down again.

After a while.

Mr. Cui is back.

Sweat dripped from his forehead, and he held a bronze axe in his hand.

This bronze ax is longer than it is wide, thicker at the top and thinner at the bottom. The head of the ax is carved with three ring buckles, and the middle is hollowed out, resembling a beast's mouth. The two sides are decorated with taotie patterns, which looks mighty and domineering.Although the patina on the outside is thick and thick, it still looks like a sharp arc, and the overall shape is simple, beautiful and changeable.

Briefly introduce Yue.

Bronze ax is relatively rare.

All unearthed are treasures.

There is no reason for it.

The main thing is usually popular in the Shang Dynasty and the Western Zhou Dynasty (the Yue of later generations is generally not forged with bronze).

Shang and Western Zhou things, even a urinal is worth old money.

Although the Yue is one of the eighteen weapons, many people don't know what it looks like.

Small ax and big axe.

Just understand it as a big ax with a relatively unique shape.

In some ancient costume TV dramas nowadays, when the emperor orders the generals to go to war, they often shoot two rows of soldiers at the entrance of the hall.

Shooting this kind of shot can make the director who holds the ax in the hands of the group performers generally have a deeper understanding of the culture of ancient weapons.

Because the ancient kings ordered the generals to confer Yue in the Taimiao before going out.

Although the Yue is a weapon, it actually represents the right to kill relatives and use soldiers.

The so-called special killing power means killing a symbolic figure on the enemy side.For example, after King Wu destroyed the Shang Dynasty, he personally cut off the head of King Zhou with a battle ax and hung it on the white flag, which represented the fall of a dynasty.

As for the power to use soldiers, in ancient times, the king granted the general axe, which is equivalent to granting the military power to the world. "Huainanzi" describes it as "those who go up to the sky from now on, the generals rule them".

in short.

Bronze Yue is the royal symbol of the honor guard of the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

Mr. Cui nodded to us.

Since then.

He knocked lightly on the door of the meeting room and took the bronze axe inside.

After sending the Yue.Mr. Cui came out.

This time it was rare for him not to guard the goal and sat next to us.

I asked, "Did something happen to the archaeological team?"

Mr. Cui looked surprised: "How do you know?"

I pointed to the conference room: "Mr. Xu lost his temper inside."

Mr. Cui nodded and said no more.

There was the sound of teacups being thrown in the conference room.

Elder Xu said angrily inside: "If this matter is not resolved, this archaeological project will be suspended indefinitely..."

Mr. Xu, who was always gentle and refined, suddenly became so angry.

It's hard to imagine what happened to him.

It is estimated that it is even bigger than the loss of the western four-legged beast-faced tripod before.

I'm thinking that today seems to be the wrong time.

If I tell him about the burning of the expert building later, the old man may have a cerebral hemorrhage.

I was about to call Lu Cenyin back.

All the people in the conference room came out.

They were all downcast, Ruo Shuang beat the eggplant.

The old man also went out.

He seemed to be ten years older, his face was ashen, his expression was haggard, and his silver hair was a little messy.

Seeing that we were about to leave, Elder Xu said, "Xiao Su, Xiao Lu, wait a moment, I happen to have something to ask you."

We can't go anymore.

A group of people walked to his studio.

Mr. Cui first made a cup of tea for each of us, then put the bronze ax on the table and withdrew.

Elder Xu took a sip of tea to ease his mood.

"Let's talk about your business first."

Lu Cenyin and I looked at each other.

I thought that I would have to talk about this matter sooner or later, so let's just talk about it, so I talked about the situation in the expert building.

the end.

I said guiltily: "Mr. Xu, I'm really sorry. That enemy is very powerful. I'm worried that you will be involved in this matter. There are two main purposes for coming here today. First, to let you know what to do in case Someone is tracking them down, so there are countermeasures. Second, I remind you that you must pay attention to your own safety in the future."

in fact.

Even if the old manager finds out that Mr. Xu is interfering with it, as Mr. Xu, it is unlikely that the old manager will move him.

For one thing, Mr. Xu has security guards when he travels, and there is a top expert like Mr. Cui by his side, which is hard to shake.Secondly, Mr. Xu is the Big Dipper in the domestic antique industry. This status is the biggest cover. He really wants to have some accident. Once the official investigation is carried out, it will be very scary. Will not take the initiative to find shit to eat.

After listening to Mr. Xu, he didn't express his opinion immediately. He took the lid of the teacup and blew on the teacup.

After half an hour.

He asked, "Is there a sprayer inside?"

I nodded.

Elder Xu replied: "Don't worry, this matter is over and no one will make trouble."

Both Lu Cenyin and I were surprised.

Mr. Xu explained: "The expert building suddenly caught fire, and we must investigate the cause deeply. The orthopedic hospital started a firestorm and hurt many people. Once it spreads and arouses public opinion and requires an in-depth investigation, it cannot be controlled at all."

"Neither the hospital, your enemies, nor the investigators are willing to have this result. The three parties will definitely work together to suppress this matter. In the end, what happened tonight will be attributed to a simple explosion of an oxygen cylinder , nothing more."

One word breaks the mountain!

This is the real old world!
I said, "See you, Mr. Xu!"

When Mr. Xu heard the words, he gave up and said with a smile: "The old man just sees a lot, not enough."

"The first is to attack the enemy, the next is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the army, and the next is to attack the city. You young people must remember that sometimes, the best way to thunder is to surrender without fighting."

Subdue the enemy without fighting?
I think so too.

It's a pity that the old manager ran away again.

I don't even know where my opponent is now.

Seeing me in a daze, Mr. Xu said, "I happen to have something to ask for your help today."

I replied, "Mr. Xu, please tell me."

Elder Xu pointed to the bronze ax on the table: "The thing just unearthed from the archaeological site of the Western Zhou Dynasty tomb, you come and break the inheritance inside."

When Lu Cenyin heard this, he foolishly wanted to see it.

I tugged on her sleeve lightly.

Old Xu asked with a smile: "Xiao Su seems to have something to say."

I replied: "Mr. Xu is taking the exam, so I dare not speak against my will."

"It's not bad that this bronze ax has just been unearthed, but it's a fake."
