Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 660 Epang Palace

In front of our eyes is an open and open land, not far away there seems to be a lintel made of white jade, even though it is so far apart, we can still see the exquisiteness of this lintel.

"Go and have a look?" I asked Hou Chengcheng.

Hou Chengcheng looked at the lintel, shook her head slowly, and then told us to stay where she was, and she wanted to observe the surrounding area before deciding on the next route.

Lao Yan was afraid that she would be in danger by herself, so she asked if she wanted someone to follow her, but Hou Chengcheng shook her head and said that she could do it alone.

I watched her wandering around in this empty place, recording something in the notebook in her hand from time to time, and felt a little strange.

Because this empty place is almost unobstructed, and even the walls on both sides are empty, I thought it might be the arsenal of the Japanese devils coming in through the iron gate. After they launched the war of aggression against China, there were hidden arsenals all over the country. , used to store weapons and even do bacteria experiments.

But there is nothing here except the bones of the Japanese soldiers and those Taoist priests.I don't quite understand why Hou Chengcheng looks like every place is different and needs to be carefully examined?

Seeing my question like this, Lao Yan didn't answer, he just said let me see what a real 'Eagle Eye' is.

"No, she's not!" I shook my head, no matter what, I only have Hawkeye in my heart, even if Hou Chengcheng's ability is a hundred times higher than his, she is not the person in my heart.

Lao Yan suddenly realized that he also knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and sighed that he also forgot for a while.

Naturally, I don't care about this. To be honest, I didn't expect Lao Yan to remember them in my heart. Lao Yan is not a heartless person, but he is a person who is good at hiding his feelings.He has seen too many lives and deaths over the years, if he remembers all of them clearly, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it long ago.

What's more, he has never been with Hawkeye and others day and night, and the long-night trip to the ancient country is just a life-threatening journey.The people under Lao Yan's hands died one after another, and he had no time to think about sacrifices.

"Company Commander Chen, if he knows that you are so promising now, he will be very happy!" Lao Yan held a cigarette between his hands, making sure that Hou Chengcheng would not finish the inspection in a short time, so he turned his head and chatted with me.

I reached out to remove the vial containing Uncle Chen's ashes from my neck, and shook my head with a smile: "Who can say clearly, maybe Uncle Chen just wants me to be an ordinary person."

At that time, if I hadn't joined the army with him, he would probably have let me grow up in his hometown, because he said that when I was born, my father talked to him, and my father didn't expect anything , just count on me to be able to live forever.

Uncle Chen didn't know what my father did before, so he didn't take this sentence as such a rare thing back then. After all, most parents expected this.

It wasn't until Lao Yan came to us, until he saw that the Nine Dragons tattoo on my back had such a big effect, that he understood what my father meant.

Therefore, when he was dying, he regretted bringing me into the army, otherwise he would not have met Lao Yan!

I smiled and shook my head, the things that had passed for several years were suddenly brought up by Lao Yan, and I fell into it for a while.

I hung up the ashes again and signaled Lao Yan not to mention it again. This experience was really painful for me.

Fortunately, Hou Chengcheng also came over at this time, she looked at us with a strange expression, it should be said that there was a kind of abnormal excitement, but she was a little unconfident.

"What's wrong?" Lao Yan asked.

Hou Chengcheng made comparisons with his hands: "This is not a building from decades ago. Although it doesn't look old, it is at least thousands of years old..."

Professor Xu's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this. He had lost all vitality because of the man-eating beast just now. Although he was not injured, the fright alone was beyond his ability to bear.

The inside of the iron gate also looks relatively new, so he was not interested just now. Now that Hou Chengcheng said it, he was resurrected with full blood. How did Hou Chengcheng see it?

Hou Chengcheng spread out her hands, and there was a pen in her hand, which looked different from the pens we usually use.

She said it was a laser pointer she brought back from abroad, and she could roughly tell the age of the antique. Of course, she didn't know if it was accurate, but she just used this as a reference. The reason why she made this inference was because she saw the same thing.

Something that only existed thousands of years ago.

"What is it?" Professor Xu immediately asked Hou Chengcheng to take him to see it.

Lao Yan shook his head helplessly, saying that Lao Xu was a cultural relic idiot, and he was buried in 701 after all.

I turned to look at Lao Yan, what did he mean by that?
Could it be that he already knew about the National Archaeological Team's contact with Professor Xu?
No, he must know, but does he also want Professor Xu to take over the position of the archaeological team leader?
This is his old partner. Without Professor Xu, I'm sure Lao Yan's work will be greatly hindered for a while.

Lao Yan looked at me, seeing my expression, couldn't help laughing: "I'm getting old too, the future 701 won't need our old pair of partners anymore."

I pursed my lips and didn't speak. It seems that Yazai and I were worrying for nothing. Lao Yan and Professor Xu knew these things well enough that they had already made a decision.

I turned my head to look at Yazai, and sure enough, he also looked stunned, and waved his hand at me a little embarrassedly.

"Lao Yan, come here, it's terrible!" Professor Xu suddenly shouted.

Lao Yan trotted over quickly and asked him what's the matter?
We all ran over and saw that Professor Xu's hands were trembling and his lips were trembling. If we hadn't heard him yell just now, we would have thought that he had some kind of illness.

"Old Xu, what did you find?" Lao Yan patted Professor Xu on the shoulder to help him calm down, and then asked softly.

Professor Xu took a few deep breaths, and slowly glanced around among us: "Afanggong...it's Afanggong!"

Afang Palace?
I just felt a lightning strike on my body, and I had a very unreal feeling, how could A Fang Gong appear here?

Professor Xu knelt down on the ground excitedly, and murmured the information about A Fang Gong.

Afang Palace is known as the "No. [-] Palace in the World". It is a new palace built by the Qin Dynasty with countless labors and countless gold and silver. !It is the landmark building of China's first unification, and it is also the physical mark of the beginning of the Chinese nation's cohesion. It has been listed as a provincial cultural relic protection unit in Shaanxi Province decades ago.

However, the protected Efang Palace is only a relic, and according to Lao Yan, it has been applying to become a world relic in the past two years.

In history, the Efang Palace was not completed due to the short-lived state of Qin and frequent civil turmoil, but even so, it was already a very magnificent building.

It is said that in order to attract the phoenix, thousands of plane trees were planted in the building in the Efang Palace, because the ancients believed that the phoenix cannot live without the plane tree, and it cannot eat without the bamboo.

So at the beginning there was a folk song, that is, "Phoenix, Phoenix, go to Efang." '

It was only later that the Qin Dynasty collapsed, and the Afang Palace was burned down by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu.

"The six kings are finished, the four seas are one, the mountains of Shu are ignorant, and Afang comes out... The people of Chu are torched, and the poor scorched earth." This passage clearly records the story of Xiang Yu burning Afang Palace.
