Chapter 356 Is this an expert from the capital?
Three days later, somewhere deep in the mountains in Shuzhou.
A group of scientific researchers and a group of shirtless people digging next to the tomb seemed to be talking about something.
A vehicle with "Shuzhou Cultural Relics Department" printed on it drove in.
The first person to step out of the car was a middle-aged man in a suit, who seemed to be very respectable.
When he got off the bus, everyone stopped working and said hello to him.
Then, a young man got out of the car.
When the middle-aged man introduced the boy's identity to everyone, everyone had expressions of disbelief on their faces.
"Is he the person sent by the National Palace Museum?"
"Are you kidding? What's going on with Tang Lanxuan? Are you looking down on us?" The man wearing a green safety helmet and thick glasses looked like he had at least a thousand degrees of myopia, and his hair had not been taken care of.
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Old Xu, don't talk like that. Director Tang is our good friend, how could he lie to us?"
After the young man got out of the car, he smiled. While chatting just now, he took a look around the surrounding environment. It was indeed a geomantic treasure. It was obvious that the general had a noble status.
This young man is Lin Ran, and his location is the remains of the general's tomb!
The general's tomb is located on the col of Wolong Mountain in Shuzhou. The tombstone has been knocked down and the writing on it is no longer clear.
But in the middle of the mausoleum, there is a hole about fifty centimeters in diameter. Around the mausoleum, saber-toothed grass growing as high as half a man is growing.
The archaeological team was not in a hurry to remove weeds for fear of affecting the original structure of the tomb.
Seeing Lin Ran's professional expression, the middle-aged man smiled happily, and then said to Lin Ran: "Master Lin, this is Xu Yuchen, the director of Shuzhou Archaeological Center and the main force of this archaeological project."
Lin Ran nodded, stretched out his hand and said, "I am Lin Ran. I have done some research on treasure appraisal and tomb burial. I hope I can help you."
Lin Ran acted very politely. Although Xu Yuchen felt that it was not very reliable, he still extended his hand and said seriously: "Archaeology is not just a game. There are dangers everywhere. Don't run around on the construction site."
"understand!"
"Then the work here will be left to you, Mr. Lin. I still have some things to do in the village. After you finish the archeology, send me a signal and I will come to pick you up." The middle-aged man finished his work. Then drove away.
He couldn't stand the hot environment here.
Xu Yuchen also received the order. Although he looked down upon Lin Ran, he still explained the detailed situation to him.
"The only thing we can be sure of now is that this is the tomb of a general from the Han Dynasty. It's just that whether it is the Western Han Dynasty or the Eastern Han Dynasty, we can't be sure yet."
"In addition, we have found the entrance to the mausoleum and are measuring the air quality inside to determine whether we want to go down."
While introducing the situation, he led Lin Ran to the entrance of the cave.
At the entrance of the cave, several plainly dressed staff were looking at the values on the instrument, part of which had already penetrated deep into the tomb.
"The air quality hasn't been tested yet." When the staff saw Xu Yuchen coming over, they quickly explained their findings.
Although there is support from relevant local departments, the level of technology is such that even the latest instruments cannot accurately measure the internal air composition.
"In my opinion, just find a suicide squad and go down there." A man next to him who was full of charlatanism joked.
When he turned around, he saw Lin Ran next to Xu Yuchen, and he couldn't help but asked curiously: "General Manager Xu, is this your relative? Why did you bring the child here?"
"This is the expert sent by the capital." Xu Yuchen sighed, thinking that it seems that the capital really doesn't care about archeology. He only wants to search for cultural relics all day long, but he doesn't want to invest in archeology!
"Expert? Hehe, interesting." The man stood up and patted Lin Ran on the shoulder.
This man was very strong, and Lin Ran felt a familiar smell from his body.
It was the scent of someone who had been dealing with grave soil all year round.
He is also a native master.
After the man patted Lin Ran on the shoulder, he praised: "Not bad, he looks thin and has some muscles. He is not a young man from the city."
Before Lin Ran could reply, a young man of similar age came out from beside him and said, "Boss Jiang, should we go in and take a look?"
"You don't know what's going on inside, so you just want to go down there? Are you going to die?" the man said to him.
"But, are we just waiting up there?" the young man asked anxiously.
"Isn't there an expert from Beijing? Let him try." The man didn't know whether he was joking or deliberately provoking. He glanced at Lin Ran and said, "Brother, we have been stuck at the door for three days. Can you help us make a decision? "
Xu Yuchen whispered to Lin Ran: "This is Jiang Hao. He used to be a local master. Most of the people here are his subordinates. Now they are helping the archaeological team. But we only have a cooperative relationship with them. Don't mess with them." Anger at them.”
He is indeed a native!
Lin Ran had already come into contact with many native masters. The man in front of him was carefree and could cooperate with the country. He was obviously a southern native master.
He nodded, and while Xu Yuchen was introducing Lin Ran to Jiang Hao and his party, he came to the entrance of the cave.
When I saw the value on the instrument, it was just that the carbon dioxide concentration was relatively high, but no toxic components were detected.
Lin Ran asked the staff manipulating the instruments, "Isn't this already the result?"
The staff member wore small glasses, adjusted them, glanced at Lin Ran, and said in a disdainful tone: "This is only part of it. We haven't tested the deep air yet."
"That's not right. Let's get a sample for you." Lin Ran said.
Jiang Hao on the side heard this and immediately laughed: "As expected of a young man, I like your arrogant attitude!"
"Aren't you still a young man if you're not full of energy?" Lin Ran replied with a smile. He didn't know why these natives didn't want to go down.
According to his understanding of Tufuzi, they should be keen on going to tombs, and they should be in big tombs.
"We haven't determined whether it's safe yet. You can't go down without permission." Xu Yuchen stopped him seriously.
Jiang Hao smiled and patted Xu Yuchen's shoulder: "General Manager Xu, the experts in the capital have said it's OK. You just need to watch from the side."
After speaking, he took out a piece of black clothes from his backpack and threw it to Lin Ran.
Good guy, this clothes is still a little heavy. Lin Ran barely touched it for a moment, and his body trembled.
"Kids, let's go to work." Jiang Hao shouted to the people sitting around him.
Suddenly, six people stood up and put on the same clothes.
Xu Yuchen anxiously stopped at the entrance of the cave: "What you are doing is against the standards! If something happens, we cannot bear the responsibility!"
"Please, you can't ask us to sign a life and death certificate every time you do archaeology, right? Your process is too troublesome. If you don't believe me, you should also believe this big shot from the capital." Jiang Hao smiled and pushed Xu Yuchen away.
He said to Lin Ran: "Brother Lin, there is danger in the tomb, just follow us and don't cause trouble!"
