My conversation with Father Panma lasted for more than three hours. I kept asking questions. While understanding the course of things, I tried to test out the secret.

The content of the conversation is very scattered. Daddy's speech, coupled with Agui's translation, sometimes explain concepts to each other, which takes a lot of time. And Dad didn't cooperate very well, maybe Agui's translation had some deviations. After the talk, my mind was completely fragmented.

The age of Wenjin and their archaeological team entering the mountain was probably in 1976. The old man could not tell the time very accurately.

At that time, the leader of the team should be Wen Jin, but when I took a photo of Xisha to show him, he could not distinguish the others. It was too long and too many people. For the environment at that time, everyone had a hairstyle. One kind of clothes, he only remembered the only leader, very reasonable.

The things in front were unremarkable. At that time, there were frequent border conflicts, and the presence of troops in the village was too common. You should know that around 1978, the Shangsi area was almost all the People's Liberation Army. They were dug during the counterattack, and the troops had to go into the mountains to find a guide. That was a military task.

Panma took the allowance of the army. At that time he was still a strong man. When he was hunting, he walked the farthest and deepest. Naturally, he was the most suitable as a guide.

They set off in the early morning of the day. He was inconvenient to ask about the task of the army, but only led the troops to the Yangjiao Mountain, and then he followed the army. His mind was on the way to remember, and he didn't come much from Yangjiao Mountain. He had to make sure that he could go back.

They walked for quite a long time, spent the night in the mountain, and came to a lake in the mountain.

This place had only been to Panma once, when he was thirty-one years old. He married his wife and wanted to hit a few roes to go back to ask his uncle. He led the dog along the way and found the lake. He ambushed the lake for a day and hunted a wild boar. He never went deeper here.

This kind of lake has no name. Maybe the villagers do n’t know there is a lake except Panma, the lake is a dead lake, there is no stream, and there is no connection with other places under him. They do n’t know. The camp was set up by the lake and tents were set up, after which the task of Panma was completed.

Next, he was responsible for some support for the troops every few days. The troops themselves had sufficient supplies, so every time he went into the mountains, he brought some rice or salt into it. The strange thing that Agui said happened in it. once. During this time no one knew what the troops were stationed there.

Pan Ma is very curious in this process, but he also knows that in those years, it is too expensive to spy on these things. So he resisted his curiosity. Later, when the team opened, there were many more boxes, about thirty or so, each of which was the size of a shoe box. The soldiers took it out carefully.

He was curious and once wanted to get one, but was stopped by a soldier who was very gentle. The soldier said that the things in this box are dangerous. He took it for a while and only felt that the box was very heavy, not knowing what was in it.

I heard here that there may be some impressions in my mind. This shoebox-sized box is called a "storage box", and the nickname is a bone box. It is used by the archaeological team to store excavated fragments of cultural relics. This kind of box is generally Strictly numbered, there are large and small, but most are the size of a shoe box. (The unearthed cultural relics are generally heavier, and the weight contained in the size of the shoe box is best for carrying.)

Panma is very puzzled because there is nothing special on the edge of the lake. Where did the things in those boxes come from? He thought at the time, this box must be filled with stones, because there are a lot of rock beaches on the edge of the lake, with a lot of stones.

However, he soon discovered that it was impossible because after traveling in the mountains for a while, this box began to emit a strange smell, which was very unpleasant and indescribable.

My first reaction was rancid smell, but Panma said no. People who hunt all the time often deal with meat, and he can definitely distinguish the rancid smell. The kind of smell is really beyond description.

The description of the smell is generally based on objects, such as "smell like jasmine" or "smell like stinky socks". Father Panma can't describe it, it must be a smell he hasn't smelled. This taste is even found for similar ones. Less than.

I want to ask him if this taste is "the taste of a dead person", but after all he can hold it back, if he doesn't want to talk about this topic, it is not good for me to propose it halfway.

Pan Ma's curiosity was even stronger, but then those people were wary of him, he had never had the opportunity to touch these boxes. After returning to the village, this group of people quickly left, and I have never seen them again.
