Du Heng paused, and finally slowly put down the book in his hand.

Opposite him is Xiao Xuan sitting cross-legged, with disheveled hair and an indifferent expression. It's just that she has been fed by the doctor according to the standard diet for nearly a month. Her complexion looks excellent from the inside out, and she even looks a little fat. .

Holding the book in his hand, Du Heng carefully looked up and down the opposite side, and finally bowed slightly, with an extremely flat tone:

"I've seen Young Master Xiao."

Xiao Xuan's dark eyes moved slightly, but her expression remained indifferent.

"You don't seem surprised at all." He said indifferently.

"After reading the books here for two or three days, no matter how surprised I am, I won't be surprised." Xiao Xuan calmly said, "Then, what advice do you have for Mr. Xiao's sudden inquiry?"

Xiao Xuan choked slightly, and couldn't help but glance over Du Heng's face.Since he gradually regained consciousness a few days ago, he could see the figure of this person as soon as he opened his eyes, but he either lowered his hands and bowed his head respectfully, obediently listening to others; , Sit in front of you and read aloud, without any change in tone and tone, you can listen to it and fall asleep within 3 minutes.But now it seems that this kid surnamed Du is also good at hiding needles in the cotton...

"What advice can a homeless person have?" Xiao Xuan said, "Please inform me, I want to pay my respects to the master here."

Although he claimed to be a homeless person, Xiao Xuan's tone was neither salty nor weak, and he could not see any respectful respect; even his own background.If there is really a loyal servant who worships the Lord in front of him, I am afraid that he will turn his face and get angry, but Du Heng frowned slightly, but said calmly:

"Your Excellency wants to see the King of Hengyang, so I naturally dare not stop him. But since you have been pretending for so long, why are you willing to meet people now?"

Xiao Xuan was stunned for a moment, thinking that this kid's words were hidden, and it would be really difficult to deal with the yin and yang.But this time he had been thinking about it for a long time, and he had already had a draft in his heart, so he calmly said:

"Although I have been alone in the quiet room for the past few days, I have a little idea of ​​what's going on outside. I heard that the King of Hengyang recruited the widows and widows in Chang'an City and rewarded them with food and clothing. Woolen cloth?"

Du Heng's eyes trembled slightly.In the past, King Wen of Zhou treated the elders kindly. Jiang Shang, Boyi and other sages and nobles all joined Xiqi after hearing about it, and the Zhou Dynasty prospered from this.Xiao Xuan took this example as a comparison, on the one hand, it was a compliment, but on the other hand, it was intentional or unintentional self-promotion.Since the King of Hengyang wants to practice benevolent government and support widows and widows, then naturally he can't do anything to a poor and helpless person like him.

After the simple two-sentence confrontation, both sides have an understanding of each other's ranks.So Du Heng stopped going around in circles, and after a moment of silence, he spoke bluntly:

"King Hengyang is not in the mansion right now. Early this morning, His Highness hurried out with a few officials, saying that he was going to the Taiye Pond in the Forbidden Garden to deal with some important matters."

As he spoke, he carefully looked at the expression of the handsome young man in front of him—when he heard the word "Taiye Pond", Xiao Xuan's facial muscles twitched slightly, showing a trace of fear that he couldn't suppress.

As long as he had a choice, Mu Chen would never want to go to Tianyi Pavilion, a source of pollution soaked in strong radiation ores. After all, the horror propaganda about radiation for many years was really scary, and even protective clothing could not eliminate the fear.Because of this, the sorting and inventorying of cultural relics in Tianyi Pavilion has always been led by Wang Zhi to take charge of the special trip.In order to make it easier for him to transport supplies and apply for assistance from Hyundai, Muchen deliberately exchanged a small double-passing door from the system and placed it in Tianyi Pavilion for daily use.

The protection and cleaning of cultural relics is an extremely tedious and difficult work.According to regulations, even if modern historians cannot visit the archeology in person, they must maintain daily communication with Wang Zhi through the Shuangchuanmen to give guidance and avoid fallacies.However, in the past few days, the school of history has changed its normal routine. Not only are they often late when contacting Wang Zhi, but the experts sent to connect with them are sometimes a bit out of line, as if they were caught by something.With Wang Zhi's temper, of course he couldn't tolerate the perfunctory attitude of his colleagues in professional affairs.When reporting this time, he pointed it out bluntly.

On the other end of the phone was an old classmate of Wangzhi University, and he was not angry when he heard this, but he was taken aback for a moment and then smiled wryly:

"We really want to say sorry for this." The old classmate said: "But there are indeed objective reasons-everyone is busy analyzing the materials you handed over these days, and they are a little bit out of their minds..."

It didn't matter if he didn't say this, but after he said it, Wang Zhi was slightly taken aback, and his curiosity burst into flames: the experts who can be recruited by the emergency team are all the top experts in the industry, so to put it bluntly, he has never seen anything in his life , How can you "out of your mind"?

"what did you say?"

The old classmate coughed on the phone, but his tone was slightly awkward.

"That's—it's the oracle bone you sent me." She whispered: "The people in the laboratory found some organic matter in the gaps in the bone, and compared the samples, it is believed that it should be made around 600 BC. ..."

Wang Zhi's eyes widened slightly: so far, the oracle bone inscriptions discovered in Yin Ruins and other places are all from the late Shang Dynasty, at most no more than 400 years ago; Extremely precious cultural relics.

"What is engraved on it?"

The old classmate hesitated for a moment.

"Right now, it's still not very clear." She groaned and said, "But experts on ancient texts have basically reached a consensus, thinking that this is unlikely to be a text - the structure, composition, and framework are all inconsistent. What is the current consensus? , I think this should be a very important sacrificial ritual vessel, with special celestial phenomena engraved on it..."

In ancient times, it was very normal to worship nature and worship celestial phenomena.But Wang Zhi recalled it carefully for a moment, but found it difficult to connect the messy holes on the oracle bone with the celestial phenomena:

"What kind of celestial phenomenon is that?"

"Astronomers believe that the oracle bone depicts five planets moving in phases, and the sun is temporarily blocked; if the ancients were observant enough, they would see five stars intertwined around the sun, which is different from the usual The trajectories are quite different."

Wang Zhi snorted, and was just about to nod his head, to perfunctory this paragraph of astronomical knowledge that he really didn't understand very well.However, the historian's keenness suddenly moved, making him frowned subconsciously:

"—five-star disorder?"

Why—why do you feel so familiar?

"You should feel familiar." The old classmate seemed to sigh: "Do you still remember the passage in the Emperor's Century? ——"Sun, Moon and Five Star Map" cloud, Jie's last year, two days fighting side by side, five stars intertwined, vain arrows flow, fire See you."

"In other words, there is a high probability that you have dug something from the Xia Dynasty."

The old classmate stopped for a while, and as expected, he heard the sudden rapid breathing and the strange silence on the phone.

"—now, you know why we're excited?"
