after an hour.

On the mountain-ring road in the suburbs of Nancheng, Zhang Fan and three others got off the bus halfway up the mountain.

Looking at the desolation everywhere, the host Xiao Ma looked puzzled:

"Classmate Zhang Fan, are there any part-time jobs available here?"

"This way."

Zhang Fan pointed to the mountain in the distance, then stepped over the railing, as if he was going up the mountain.

"Mountain?"

Xiao Ma looked at Zhang Fan's back and had a stronger premonition.

What kind of part-time job can I do in this barren mountain?

This is a protected area. It's impossible to imitate a bald man and cut down trees, right?

If there must be one, it must be tomb robbing!

"Hiss... follow quickly!"

As the camera in the live broadcast room shook, the two members of the program team quickly caught up.

[I just came in from Hot Topics. Is this Zhang Fan’s live broadcast room? 】

[Hey, I just finished the archeology class in the morning and started the practical exercises in the afternoon? 】

[You guys are not really here to rob graves, are you? 】

【Real punishment! It's brave enough to rob a tomb in broad daylight, but you still dare to bring the program team with you? 】

【……】

Because we are walking on a mountain road, the live broadcast screen will inevitably have some fluctuations, but it will not affect the viewing of netizens.

It was obvious that no one had been to this stretch of road, and it was full of thorns and weeds.

Fortunately, with Zhang Fan leading the way, the program team did not encounter any obstacles for the time being.

After walking for about ten minutes, the three of them arrived at a relatively empty hillside.

At this time, a dozen figures appeared in the distance of the camera.

They had a clear division of labor. Five or six iron poles were driven straight into the ground, and some were digging nearby with shovels.

【Whole grass? Gang crime? 】

[What are these people doing? Looking for a grave? 】

[Awesome, you are really robbing a tomb! 】

[My family lives near here. Why didn’t I know there was a tomb up there? 】

【……】

Seeing this scene, the live broadcast room was filled with excitement.

Soon, the three of them arrived ten meters away from the crowd.

An old man with gray hair on his temples quickly came over to greet Zhang Fan and others after seeing them.

"Zhang Xiaoyou, I've been waiting for you!"

"There is a class in the morning."

Zhang Fan responded politely, but the host Xiao Ma recognized the old man in front of him at a glance.

"Professor Xu? Why are you here?"

"pony?"

Professor Xu was slightly startled and quickly recognized the gold medal reporter who had interviewed him.

"Aren't you recording a show? Why are you here?"

Xiao Ma explained: "Professor Xu, Zhang Fan is our protagonist in this issue."

"oh?"

Professor Xu glanced at Zhang Fan: "Your program team is really discerning and poached all the technical advisors of our archaeological team!"

"Technical Adviser?"

Xiao Ma looked surprised, and after thinking for a moment, his heart suddenly became enlightened.

It seems that I was not wrong.

Student Zhang Fan was indeed digging an ancient tomb, but it was a legal and protective excavation.

No wonder, if Zhang Fanzheng had done tomb robbing, how could Director Xiao have released him?

"Yes, Zhang Xiaoyou is our technical consultant in Nancheng. He is very accomplished in robbing... and studying ancient tombs."

Professor Xu affirmed for the second time, but almost let something slip.

"Mr. Xu, let's start today's work quickly."

"Okay! I'm just waiting for your words!"

Hearing Zhang Fan's urging to start work, Professor Xu's face showed excitement. This guy finally stopped sitting and raised the price today.

With the appearance of Zhang Fan, all the staff present stopped their work and focused their attention on Zhang Fan, as if waiting for orders.

Seeing this scene, netizens expressed confusion.

【what's the situation? Who is this old man? How come he even knows Teacher Ma? 】

[This is Professor Xu, the director of our Da Nanzhou Archeology Bureau and the vice president of the National Archaeological Association! 】

【Are you kidding me? Isn't Zhang Fan just a junior in college? He serves as a technical advisor to the archaeological team? 】

[Awesome, I thought he was a tomb robber. I am too small! 】

[This is Professor Xu, one of the most important figures in the archaeological world. He actually asked Zhang Fan to be a consultant. Why should he? 】

【……】

In the live broadcast screen.

Zhang Fan and Professor Xu had already arrived at the excavation site, and the program team quickly followed after obtaining permission.

Several Luoyang shovels were placed aside, and many soil samples on the ground had been taken out.

Zhang Fan lowered his head and observed the soil, while Professor Xu made an introduction.

"Zhang Xiaoyou, this tomb was discovered a few years ago. Because there was an earthquake next door, a protection project was launched for this tomb."

"It's a shame to say that the project has been started for more than two months, and we still haven't found the general location of the tomb."

"However, from the soil sampling at the site and nearby research, it can be roughly inferred that it is a tomb from the Han Dynasty."

Zhang Fan picked up a handful of soil and nodded slightly:

"The texture is precise, the colors are distinct, and it's beautiful."

"But judging from the middle section, there may be soil transported from other places. This tomb is not simple."

"That's right."

Professor Xu agreed very much and took two more bricks from the side.

"Zhang Xiaoyou, look at this, I have never seen bricks made of this material before."

Zhang Fan took the brick, and the cameraman pointed the camera very wisely.

The gray-white rectangular bricks have thin lines on the horizontal sides.

After looking at it for a moment, Zhang Fan already had the answer in his mind.

"This is not a brick. This should be an anti-theft layer. The outer layer is made of glutinous rice juice. These stripes are made with ink fountain lines."

"Such an anti-theft layer?" Professor Xu frowned slightly. He knew about the anti-theft layer, but he had never heard of ink fountain threading, because in terms of manufacturing technology, this was superfluous.

"That's right, it's not just for defense."

"What?"

"Don't get me wrong, I'm talking about natural disaster beasts."

Zhang Fan pulled up a handful of grass from under his feet and stared at the roots of the weeds.

"The water supply was cut off, and this was done by everyone."

Then, Zhang Fan took out a bottle of unknown liquid from his pocket and poured it on the broken bricks.

"Zizzizi..."

Zhang Fan carefully observed the changes in the bricks. After a while, Zhang Fan stood up and looked around.

"No need to look, this is indeed a tomb from the Han Dynasty. The people who built the tomb and made arrangements were all experts, starting from princes."

"What?!"

As soon as Zhang Fan said these words, a look of horror suddenly appeared on Professor Xu's face.

Although he couldn't understand Zhang Fan's methods, he believed in all Zhang Fan's judgments.

He had previously speculated that the age of the tomb was roughly the Han Dynasty, but he had never thought about it in the direction of a prince.

After all, regardless of geographical location or historical factors, such large tombs are rare in Nancheng.

And precisely because of its rarity, this tomb is of extraordinary importance.

The tombs of princes, anywhere in the world, would subvert the archaeological world!

If there are special cultural relics among them, it will be enough to rewrite history!

And now, a large tomb of this level has been discovered in Nancheng!

"Zhang Xiaoyou, are you sure?"

"Sure."

"Ah~"

Zhang Fan nodded calmly, but the people in the archaeological team seemed to be possessed. They all dropped their work and had a carnival on the spot.

As for Zhang Fan's judgment, they had no doubts at all.

Seeing the dancing archaeological team members, netizens in the live broadcast room were stunned.

[No, do you really believe it? 】

[It’s fake, that archeology professor can’t judge age by soil quality. Isn’t this a basic operation? 】

[Can you tell the age of the tomb and the identity of its owner by just pouring something on it? 】

[Good guy, how authoritative are Zhang Fan’s words in the archaeological community? 】

[My second uncle went in because of tomb robbery. He said next to me that he had never seen this kind of judgment method. 】

[Unbelievable, the continent-level archaeological team went crazy because of the junior student’s words. 】

【……】

Live in front of the camera.

The host Xiao Ma was stunned.

She has dealt with Professor Xu.

I didn't expect that such a calm old man would suddenly become like a child.

Could this... be the obsession of archaeologists with ancient tombs?

Also, wouldn’t they doubt Zhang Fan’s judgment?

As long as he had a little bit, he wouldn't be so confused, he was just a college student!

"Classmate Zhang Fan, what did you pour just now?"

"This? It's just a three-dollar Coke."

Zhang Fan raised the bottle and took a sip, answering all questions.

"Can...Coke?"

Xiao Ma was shocked. She had a hunch that the Coke would be sold out.

At this time, Professor Xu, who had finished celebrating, returned to Zhang Fan, the joy on his face still unable to be concealed.

"Zhang Xiaoyou, can our next step be to find the entrance to the tomb?"
