That afternoon, at half past three.
"Come here quickly! Come and unload the truck!"
Chongzi greeted loudly, pulling a blue plastic boat in the back of his pickup truck.
I frowned and asked, "Why is it that such a small boat doesn't have a bigger boat?"
"Brother, just make do with it. I got it through some connections. This is the magnet you want. This is the walkie-talkie. The diving suit will arrive tomorrow!"
This blue plastic boat is the boat in Xiling Lake Park in Wu'an back then. You can play for half an hour for 5 yuan.
"Brother, what are we going to do? Don't tell me yet, let me guess! Are you going to use this big magnet to suck things from the river?"
I said you are so smart, Chong, and you have guessed all this.
The insect had a flower in his mouth, and he chuckled: "Brother, you are flattering me. I think our minds are really good. What should we do now?"
"Okay, listen carefully!"
"Each of you get a walkie-talkie, Lao Baotai, you are on the embankment, Lao Zhuang, you go to the hillside, Xiaoxuan and Ayuan, you two are on standby, Chongzi, you and I will go into the water by boat, we all understand. Are you done yet?"
"clear."
I nodded: "Remember, be smart! No matter who you are, once you notice any disturbance or abnormality around you, you must promptly remind them."
I found a relatively flat place and dragged the boat into the water. Then Chongzi and I rowed the boat slowly towards the deep water.
Ten magnets were tied to ropes, three to the bow and three to the stern. I took one in my hand. When I arrived at the designated water area, I threw the magnet directly into the water with a pop.
Feeling that the rope in my hand was sinking to the bottom, I immediately said: "Row the boat! Go west!"
As soon as I gave the order, Chongzi immediately rowed hard.
"stop!"
After walking for more than ten meters, I immediately shouted to stop because I felt that something had been sucked into the magnet.
When I fished it out, I saw that it was a broken washbasin made of iron. I also checked the magnets tied to the bow and stern of the boat, but found nothing. The result was as expected, so I ordered the insect to continue rowing.
Just like this, he kept walking and stopping, and finally the bug couldn't bear it anymore, so he asked: "Brother, we are going farther and farther! Can we catch anything like this?"
I said, "Do you know why you couldn't find anything here before?"
The insect shook his head.
I said, "Before the incident, the reservoir had opened its gates to release floods, and the things were probably washed down from upstream. Now we are carving a boat to find a sword. Did you learn to carve a boat to find a sword when you were in school?"
"Brother, I never went to school."
"You didn't even go to fucking elementary school?"
The insect rowed and shook his head.
"Hey... the academic qualifications are really not equal," I couldn't explain to him.
You have to take the initiative to think about some things, think about them, and ponder the reasons behind history.
I have asked the locals before that there was a big river here called Daming River hundreds of years ago, and this was the fiefdom of the puppet Qi Emperor Liu Yu. According to the exact records described in >, Liu Yu organized 300 sand-cleaning officials , he first returned to his base camp, Fucheng, after stealing the tombs of the Northern Song Dynasty emperors. Shortly afterwards, he took the initiative to send a large amount of gold and silver treasures to the north.
Where to send?
Of course it was given to Xiaojing and the Kingdom of Jin who supported him to become emperor! Please the golden man!
If the Daming River was a canal hundreds of years ago, then taking the waterway to the Jin Kingdom would be the best choice. If it were me, I would do the same, because compared to horse transportation, under the conditions at the time, this way Save manpower and material resources.
Chongzi was rowing hard, and I stood on the bow of the boat and stared at the huge reservoir. I couldn't help but wonder, was this river the same 900 years ago? How many large boats would have passed by?
One of the ships leaked for some reason, and the goods on the ship had no time to be transferred. In the end, the entire ship sank to the bottom of the water. Naturally, the contents on the ship also sank to the bottom of the water.
In the future, the mountains and rivers changed, the riverbed changed its course, and the water level rose. It was not until today, nine hundred years later, that something finally surfaced due to a major flood discharge.
Don't think it's impossible, it's very possible. Given the conditions at the time, once the ship leaked, there was almost no way to remedy it. We could only watch the ship sink. Those people from the Southern Sect relied on searching for the water. Cultural relics have enriched generations.
Although I am a northerner, I think the future development prospects of the southern sect are better than those of our northern sect, because there are really fewer and fewer large tombs in the north, while there are still many sunken shipwrecks, ancient tombs, ruins, etc. turn up.
After rowing for another few dozen meters, the boat stopped and I asked the insect to look at the rope on the bow.
When the insect pulled the magnet out of the water and took a look, he suddenly exclaimed: "Damn it! Brother, come and see! Why is there a big iron piece here!"
"Big iron film??"
I went over to take a look and found that it turned out to be a pancake iron coin, which was very thick. The thickness of normal iron coins is about 1.5, and this thing is at least 4 centimeters thick!
Pull it off from the magnet, rub the rust a little, and the money writing is revealed, and you can barely recognize it as "Xianping Yuanbao".
This is iron pancake money that was mainly circulated in the south during the Northern Song Dynasty. It is rare, probably more common in Sichuan. Due to poor casting technology, its value is not high, and it is probably worth about two hundred yuan.
Then we used a magnet to fish in this area of water, and ended up sucking up a large amount of these ridiculously thick pancakes and iron coins.
My heart skipped a beat, it seemed like this was it! There must be something down there!
At this moment, very suddenly, I heard a woman with a loud voice shouting from the shore: "Hey! What are you two doing there!"
I quickly hid the magnet and shouted at the embankment: "We are here to have fun!"
"What are you playing for! Come up here quickly!"
I asked in a low voice: "Who is this woman?"
Chongzi narrowed his eyes and said, "I don't know, damn... maybe he's looking at the reservoir."
As soon as we docked, this woman ran over quickly.
I think she is in her forties, with messy hair, rough skin, and a local dialect.
"Haha, auntie, we are here for fun. We don't know that we don't allow people to go into the water. Let's leave immediately." I explained with a smile.
"Wait a minute!"
She took a quick look and saw a bunch of magnets hidden in our boat, and immediately said: "I think you are not here to play, but to fish for things in the water, right? Recently, there have been several waves of people coming to our place to fish for things. Cultural Relics Bureau They also posted an announcement, telling us to report it if we see it, and there will be bonuses for reporting it.”
My expression changed, and I was just thinking about how to deal with this old woman, when I suddenly heard a muffled bang!
Chongzi picked up a pebble from nowhere, and when no one was paying attention, he hit the other person on the temple with a stone!
The middle-aged woman lay directly on the ground, her face bleeding, and her right calf couldn't stop twitching.
"What are you doing! Who asked you to do it!"
Chongzi was still holding a blood-stained stone in his hand. He curled his lips and said, "Brother, she has discovered us and said she wanted to report us. Then I am not allowed to kill her?"
"you!"
"You know nothing! Who said she was going to report?! People like her just want to ask for money! Can you ask me before you do it! What if you kill him! What will happen if someone else comes to find you! What to do if the police are called! What to do if the police come!"
"Oh," Chongzi said. He squatted down and looked at the middle-aged woman. Then he raised the stone in his hand high and slammed it on the woman's face.
After six or seven hits, blood spattered out and sprayed on Chongzi's face. Chongzi wiped his face with his sleeve and turned around and said, "Brother, look, she is honest now and will definitely not call the police."
I glanced at the ground and immediately took a deep breath.
I saw that the middle-aged woman's face was so smashed that she looked disfigured, and her calf was no longer twitching.
Chongzhi tied a stone to the woman's waist and then rowed a boat to pull her to the deep water of the reservoir.
I was watching from the shore and heard a pop! He threw the person directly into the water.
