Two hours later, Su Hua, Shen Yuan and others got off the plane.
Someone came to pick them up at the airport.
The group of people took a bumpy car ride and arrived at Longyao Village, located in the ancient northwest city.
The big tomb is at the foot of the mountain behind the village. The mountain is called Longyao Mountain.
Generally, there are things like Longyao Village, Tianjing Village, Stone Warrior Village, and mountains with the word tomb, such as Laofeng Mountain, Huafeng Mountain, place names with mausoleum, Jiangling, Lanling, etc. Most of these places have ancient tombs.
Longyao Mountain is located among the mountains, surrounded by mountains, with a huge lake in front of it.
Although this place is remote, it is an excellent Feng Shui treasure land.
Su Hua and Shen Yuan were led by the reception staff to the ancient tomb located in Longyao Mountain.
This place is remote and desolate and sparsely populated.
The tomb has been half dug.
The leader of the archaeological team is Professor Gu Mo, a famous contemporary historian and archaeologist.
He came up with a group of team members to welcome Su Hua.
Professor Gu has gray hair and looks to be in his fifties or sixties.
He has an angular face, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and the eyes behind the lenses are shining with wisdom.
Seeing Su Hua, Professor Gu's eyes flashed with surprise.
I didn't expect her to be so young and so beautiful.
In his previous perception, girls who were too beautiful were like vases, flashy.
The team members standing behind him all straightened their eyes when they saw Su Hua, staring at her intently, with surprise in their eyes.
Don't blame them either.
The archaeological team works in the field all year round.
Usually they don't even see a woman, let alone a young girl as beautiful as Su Hua.
Professor Gu was the first to react. He clenched his hand into a fist, put it to his mouth and coughed twice. He stretched out his right hand and said with a smile: "Welcome, Expert Su."
Su Hua was embarrassed to be called such a strange name.
She shook his hand politely and said, "Professor Gu, you should call me Xiao Su."
Professor Gu said seriously: "No, you are a cultural relic restoration expert specially invited by our archaeological team. You can call me whatever you want."
Su Hua said nothing, glanced at the tomb behind him, and asked, "Can we start now?"
Seeing how neat she was, she didn't even take a break, so she went straight to the tomb to work.
Professor Gu couldn't help but glance at her.
I thought she was pretty and could not bear hardships.
"Okay." Professor Gu asked someone to get a mask and special shoes and handed them to her.
Su Hua took it, put on the mask, bent down and changed her shoes.
Follow Professor Gu down to the tomb.
The tomb of the Warring States Period is dug deep, more than ten meters underground.
The tomb was gloomy and the temperature was much colder than above.
Su Hua couldn't help but shuddered.
Because it is a rescue excavation, time is tight, and some tombs are still being excavated.
Since there was not enough manpower, some local villagers were hired to help.
Many archaeologists are squatting on the ground, using brushes to clean the dust on the pots.
They are all men.
Professor Gu pointed to the mottled murals on the wall and said: "When the tomb was first opened, these murals were colorful and very beautiful. When exposed to oxygen, they oxidized quickly. Before I could take a camera to take a picture, they faded like this. It’s a pity.”
Su Hua carefully observed the murals on the wall.
Although the color has faded and become old and dark, it can still be seen that the painter has high artistic attainments.
Much of the wisdom of the ancients is difficult for future generations to surpass.
Shen Yuan stared at the mural and sighed regretfully, "Our sister Hua's brain is better than a camera. She can memorize everything at a glance and draw exactly the same one. I should have invited her over a long time ago. .”
Upon hearing this, Professor Gu's eyes flashed with approval, and he praised: "Since ancient times, heroes have emerged from young, and the young people of your generation are really talented."
Shen Yuan raised her eyebrows, "Of course, my sister Hua is a genius that only happens once in a hundred years."
Su Hua touched her lightly with her elbow, indicating that she should stop saying a few words.
Shen Yuan immediately shut up.
Su Hua humbly said to Professor Gu: "We are still too young and have too little experience. We should learn more from seniors like you."
Professor Gu laughed and asked, "I heard that you are the granddaughter of Mr. Su Wenmaisu?"
"yes."
"Senior Su is famous. I have worked with him many times before. Unfortunately, he has passed away."
Thinking of her grandfather and grandmother who passed away one after another, Suhua felt a sharp pain in her heart.
She calmed down for a while and continued to listen to Professor Gu's introduction.
It is said that this is a tomb of a prince during the Warring States Period.
During the Warring States Period, lavish burials were common. People at that time regarded death as life and thought that people could live forever.
This tomb is rich in funerary objects and is of great research value.
This archeology invited many archaeological experts and team members.
Su Hua followed Professor Gu to the main tomb chamber.
Someone came over carrying a silk painting on a tray.
Su Hua took a closer look.
The painting was mottled, severely oxidized, faded, and had holes, making it very difficult to repair.
Professor Gu pointed to the silk painting and said: "This was taken out from a coffin that was buried in the side room. There were silk paintings in the burial coffin. We speculate that there should be silk paintings in the coffin in the main tomb. At that time, Xiao Shen I mentioned you, so I left it unopened, specifically waiting for you to come over before opening it again."
Su Hua nodded, "I can remember it quickly. As long as I write it down, I can repair it as it was."
"Okay." Professor Gu motioned to the people next to the coffin, "Let's open the coffin."
The coffin actually has five layers, which means five layers.
The four layers outside have been opened in advance, leaving only the last layer.
Shen Yuan was afraid that Su Hua would be frightened, so he grabbed her fingertips and whispered: "Sister Hua, don't be afraid. There is nothing scary about dead people, and they don't turn into zombies like in the movies."
Su Hua nodded and said softly: "Stop talking, I have to concentrate."
"Okay, Sister Hua, come on!"
Everyone put on gas masks.
The coffin was pried open by several strong men, and a stream of black corpses poured out angrily.
The crowd dispersed in a hurry.
After the corpse energy dissipated, everyone gathered around.
Su Hua saw a rotting corpse in the coffin.
The corpse was wearing clothes.
The clothes were made of silk and were relatively well preserved and colorful, but they soon began to oxidize visibly to the naked eye.
The funerary objects in the coffin are rich and diverse, including all kinds of gold, silver, lacquer, bronze, etc.
Sure enough, there was a scroll of silk painting next to it.
Professor Gu bent down to pick up the silk painting and quickly unfolded it.
A staff member took a camera and started taking pictures. The flash must be turned off, otherwise it will damage the painting.
Su Hua concentrated her attention, stared at the silk painting, and began to take shorthand.
The huge tomb suddenly became quiet.
No one dared to make a sound, for fear of disturbing her.
As if in the blink of an eye, the color of the silk painting faded away.
Professor Gu turned his head and looked at Su Hua with a questioning look.
Su Hua nodded, "Okay, I've also noted the color of the clothes."
Professor Gu then breathed a sigh of relief, handed the silk painting in his hand to his assistant, and said, "I heard Shen Yuan say before that your brain is better than a camera, but I still don't believe it. Now I know that there are talents in the country who are better than others." Better than blue.”
Su Hua smiled and said, "When I finish repairing the painting, it's not too late for you to praise me again."
"I believe you. You have restored the painting of Wang Meng's seclusion on display in the museum perfectly."
"you flatter me."
Next, Su Hua wants to restore the silk painting.
Because she needed absolute quiet, she was arranged to live in a guest house in the town.
Other archaeological team members either sleep in tents or live in villages.
Su Hua and a group of people came to the guest house.
After settling down, she began to study how to restore the silk painting.
After researching it, he listed a series of materials and asked Shen Yuan to send someone to prepare the repair materials.
She opened her suitcase, took out the painting repair tools, and began to carefully remove the dust on the silk painting.
I was busy until the evening, having dinner with Shen Yuan and two bodyguards.
Shen Yuan looked at her room and asked, "Huahua, are you scared at night? Do you want me to sleep in the same room with you?"
Su Hua shook her head, "No need."
The conditions of the guest house are simple and there is only one bed in the room.
If you sleep in the same room, you have to share the same bed with Shen Yuan.
She has a slow-tempered personality and has difficulty getting close to people.
Apart from sleeping in the same bed with my grandmother when I was very young, it was with Gu Beixian later on.
She has never even slept with her mother, let alone Shen Yuan.
After eating, Su Hua called Gu Beixian to report that she was safe, and the two chatted for a while.
After hanging up the phone, she continued working.
When I get busy, I often lose track of time.
She worked until late and felt sleepy, so she took a shower and went to bed.
During the day, I was tired from traveling and traveling, then I went to the tomb, and then I concentrated on washing the paintings. I was very tired.
Su Hua fell asleep not long after lying on the bed.
As he was drifting off to sleep, he felt a chill on his body and the quilt was lifted.
Then someone started to take off her clothes.
Su Hua woke up suddenly and saw a dark figure in front of her.
A pair of rough hands violently tore at her pajamas. The rough calluses on their hands scratched her delicate skin, making her feel sick.
"Who are you?" Su Hua asked in horror, struggling to jump out of bed.
The man didn't make a sound, breathing heavily, grabbed her arm and pushed her to the bed.
"Come here! Help! Help!" Su Hua shouted loudly.
The man covered her mouth with his hand, grabbed a towel and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Let me go! Let me go!" Su Hua was in a state of confusion, waving her arms and struggling desperately.
At the critical moment, a clang was heard and the door was kicked open from the outside.
Then a tall and strong figure walked in quickly and was in front of the bed in the blink of an eye.
The man was stunned, hurriedly stopped what he was doing, and slowly raised his hands.
Because a hard gun was pressed against the back of his head.
