Almighty Appraiser

Chapter 567 Get Up

The main chamber of the tomb was in a lively atmosphere. Many people, including Director Qiu, the top person in charge of the excavation site, looked at Tan Qian who walked from the media camp to the front with dozens of pairs of eyes.

Shen Yunfeng could feel the joy and excitement in Tan Qian's eyes when she looked at him.

When he noticed that someone started to follow Tan Qian's line of sight and aimed towards him, Shen Yunfeng immediately leaned closer to Qi Lao and Wang Lao.

Moreover, I took the initiative to chat with the two old foxes about the topics that I had mentioned to Director Qiu on the road.

"Director Qiu, in order not to affect the rest of today's process, I will make a long story short." Tan Qian smiled and took the microphone handed over by Director Qiu, and said to everyone, "Everyone can go to Hanzhong Liangma Antique Trading Market when you are free. Shen Yunfeng was the winner of the Treasure Appreciation Competition held when I was invited to be the host."

"Later, I was fortunate enough to interview Shen Yunfeng twice more. The exclusive interview with him gained a large number of enthusiastic readers who care about antiques."

Having said this, Tan Qian glanced at where Shen Yunfeng was standing and continued with a smile: "And, as far as I know, Shen Yunfeng is the youngest director of our city's Antique Collection and Trading Association."

As Tan Qian finished speaking, many people, including Director Qiu, couldn't help admiring.

They all said that they did not expect that there would be such a young authority on antiques in our archaeological team.

Director Qiu found Shen Yunfeng while the iron was hot, and specially introduced him to everyone, and emphasized that when he came here with Shen Yunfeng in the morning, the two had some exchanges about the identity of the owner of the tomb.

Several news media noticed Director Qiu said that when Shen Yunfeng thought that the owner of the tomb should be a high-level military general, his face was always full of approval and affirmation, and they felt that they had discovered a news report again.

It was the same male reporter who asked the question before. After Tan Qian returned to the media camp, he raised his hand and asked: "Director Qiu, can I say that from the words you just introduced Mr. Shen, it can be inferred that you are actually inclined to support Mr. Shen’s opinion is that the owner of the tomb should be a second-rank official or a second-rank military general in the early Ming Dynasty?”

Director Qiu laughed and said: "Now I have learned the 'methods' of you media reporters. If you don't pay attention, you will catch you."

"Regarding the identity of the owner of the tomb, as I said at the beginning, there are indeed two different voices in the archaeological team. I personally think that this is not only a bad thing, but a good thing. News coverage of the book.”

"Controversy will lead to progress. As archaeologists, we can only peel back the cocoons and discover the truth of history through debates over and over again."

“As we all know, with the development of large-scale infrastructure construction in our country, a large number of ancient tombs were discovered last year alone. It is our unshirkable responsibility as archaeologists to excavate them and find the true history behind them. "

"However, due to well-known reasons, our country's archaeological capabilities seem to be somewhat powerless in the face of vast ancient tombs."

"Just like this time, in the face of this well-preserved ancient tomb, in order to protect national property and historical relics, the government invited several retired old professors and experts, and wronged them to brave the wind and rain together with young people. , staying in the wild under very difficult conditions lasts for half a month.”

"Indeed, as archaeologists, since we have chosen this job, we should have a sense of history, take the initiative to shoulder the responsibility of protecting national property and historical relics, and should not complain about the difficult working environment."

"But here, I still hope that before the coffin is opened, everyone present can give your warmest applause to these old professors and experts of our archaeological team."

Before Director Qiu could finish his words, warm applause immediately erupted in the main tomb chamber.

The male reporter who was interviewing and questioning Director Qiu also applauded enthusiastically.

When the applause fell, he realized that what Director Qiu said just now did not seem to have the answers he needed.

Xiao Xie squeezed out a smile and clapped his hands as if to do something. When everyone focused their attention on Director Qiu again, he looked at Shen Yunfeng with a gloomy expression. The more he thought about it, the more unhappy he became.

Before Shen Yunfeng came, although he was only the head of a small office of the Cultural Protection Bureau, he was quite happy in front of Director Qiu and several experts from the Cultural Protection Bureau.

Director Qiu, in particular, had a lot of trust in himself, and he would be responsible for the deployment of personnel, but now, Shen Yunfeng had only been here for a few days, and Director Qiu looked at him with admiration.

"Colleagues and friends from the media, next, we will carry out the final stage of this archaeological excavation, which is also the most important part of the entire archaeological excavation, which is to open the ancient coffin behind you."

Director Qiu said with a somewhat excited expression.

"I hope that our archaeological team members and archaeological experts will cheer up and complete this final work as perfect as possible."

"We also hope that our media friends will use the lenses and pens in your hands to record this exciting moment in detail."

After saying these words, Director Qiu handed the microphone to the staff at the side, nodded to Mr. Qi, Mr. Wang and others, indicating that it is time to start.

The crowd dispersed slowly. Whether it was the archaeologists or the news media, everyone performed their duties, put up all their spirits, and waited for the moment when the ancient coffin was opened.

In the middle of the main tomb, on the platform where the sarcophagus was originally placed, there is now a nearly complete wooden coffin.

Ancient coffins dating back more than 700 years, even if they are made of the finest wood, cannot escape the erosion of water and soil, as well as the gnawing of ants and insects. Especially the paint color, the glass should have fallen off long ago.

But the state of the coffin in front of everyone's eyes doesn't look like it has been buried deep underground for more than 700 years. It seems that it has not been buried for a long time.

The wood showed no signs of decay and the coffin showed no signs of collapse.

Experts say that because there is a layer of sarcophagus outside it, the special structure of the tomb, and the relatively unique local mountain walks have played a very good role in protecting the ancient coffin.

Professor Yang stood quietly at the side, watching Mr. Qi call Shen Yunfeng, and Mr. Wang and others led a few more experienced young archaeologists towards the ancient coffin, the corners of his mouth could not help twitching for two rounds.

Originally, at this time, he should be the person at the front of the coffin-opening team.
