Little did he know that Lin Ran really had such an identity.

Previously, he would never tell the Tufuzi about this because most of the Tufuzi could not get along with the official people, and the Tufuzi who were recruited by the official would not go to the tomb again.

Things are different now.

Lin Ran didn't say it directly on the phone, but just nodded. There was no need to let others know about this matter, as long as he knew it in his heart.

After hanging up the phone, Huang Hao was even a little unhappy.

"Professor Li is really ignorant. He has never even heard of Mr. Lin's name."

"Wouldn't it be better not to believe it?" Lin Ran said with a smile, "What if he really knows that we are here for archaeological purposes and deliberately avoids us, it will be even more troublesome."

Huang Hao thought for a moment and realized that it was indeed possible.

Although they went on an archaeological trip together, it was difficult to guarantee that Professor Li didn't have any special information.

This time they did not enter the ancient tomb in advance. Instead, they cooperated directly with the archaeological team.

Both emotionally and rationally, the situation of Professor Li was somewhat different from what he had known before.

Perhaps, he was not as noble as the situation he described.

But their goals now are the same, and there is no need to expose his lies face to face.

At least it's completely unnecessary now.

They sat there and chatted for a while. Not long after, an off-road vehicle drove over.

The people on the off-road vehicle asked them if they were Professor Li's guests, and they answered yes.

Then, the driver of the off-road vehicle motioned for them to drive behind him while he led the way.

Despite the small size of this city, the roads were still very smooth. They drove there without any bumps.

Came directly to Huicheng University.

At the gate of the university, the SUV driver told them that Professor Li was there, and then drove away.

They found a place to park the car and saw an old man with a goatee approaching them.

He had his hands behind his back, and behind him were two young men, a man and a woman, with luggage in their hands.

Lin Ran looked at the old man, who was the first to speak: "Are you researchers from the capital?"

Lin Ran nodded and looked at the two young men next to him.

They were probably Professor Li's students, and they should have gone on internships with him. When he was in college in his previous life, he had a similar experience, and he felt a little warm when he saw the two students.

When the two college students saw Lin Ran, they found it very strange.

In terms of age, the other party is not as old as them. Recently, he has become a research intern at the Palace Museum. It is their dream to join the Palace Museum.

But now is not the time to chat.

Professor Li said to them with a smile: "Get everything, I will arrange a guest house for you now. You can have a good rest here tonight. As for the tools, have you prepared them yourself?"

"Yes." Huang Hao knew that he did not want to expose this matter to the students, so he did not name the tool.

Professor Li was very satisfied with their performance.

He took them to his residence and then invited them to have dinner with him.

While eating, he was a little surprised to hear that Professor Li was going to the ancient tomb with them.

"Professor Li, do you want to go to the grave too?"

Professor Li smiled and said: "You want to go to archeology? Do you have proof? How can you go in if I don't go?"

"That's true." Wang Jinpeng looked puzzled, then looked at Huang Hao, "Didn't you agree to sell us the information about the ancient tomb? Why does he want to go too?"

Among the Tufuzi, information trading is also very common.

Usually they sell ancient tombs that they have visited but have not fully excavated to other teams. Naturally, they will not go there again. What they can get from them depends on the other teams' own abilities.

The other is that he detected an ancient tomb here, but they considered that their own team was not suitable for entering, so they chose to pass it on to others.

Tufuzi's rules are somewhat similar to those in the antique circle, that is, the seller is not allowed to visit the "ancient tomb" that has been sold.

I didn't expect that Professor Li would go with them, and I suddenly felt a little depressed.

Lin Ran disagreed and said, "It doesn't matter. Professor Li is probably a local. It would be better to have a local to take care of the archeology here to avoid encountering local poisonous insects and poisonous weeds."

"Haha, don't worry, I'm not the only one going with you for archeology, there are also people from the archeology team?" Professor Li said with a smile.

However, Lin Ran could see a hint of coldness in his smile.

This professor is indeed not simple. He seems to be highly respected, but to use his words to describe him, he is more likely to be a hypocrite.

They continued to exchange glasses at the dinner table, and Huang Hao even reminisced with him about old times and other friends.

Because there were students present, they didn't talk much about tomb robbing techniques. Liu Jingfeng himself couldn't find a topic, so he could only laugh beside him.

When leaving, Professor Li asked two students to take their luggage to the dormitory in advance.

Then he had time to explain things to these local masters.

"Let's not worry about the archaeological team's affairs for now. Let's talk to you about the situation of this ancient tomb first."

Professor Li put away his joking expression and looked a little serious.

"Those from the archaeological team have speculated through research that the age of the ancient tomb should be from the Song Dynasty. Although his specific official position is not clear, it is speculated that he should be a fourth-grade official."

"Four products?"

Wang Jinpeng and the others didn't understand, but Liu Jingfeng and Lin Ran were a little surprised.

Although this ancient tomb is not an imperial tomb, placed in this place, it is already considered the highest-level ancient tomb.

During the Song Dynasty, the most likely officials of the fourth rank were magistrates or magistrates. Based on the geographical location of Huicheng at that time, they should be magistrates.

In other words, the people buried in the ancient tombs are on the same level as the mayor.

Lin Ran thought for a moment and asked, "Professor Li, are you talking about Shao Ye?"

In his impression, only this official from the Song Dynasty had any connection with Huicheng.

Professor Li looked at Lin Ran with some surprise and surprise: "Little brother, I didn't know you were so knowledgeable about history."

"It's okay." Lin Ran interrupted Wang Jinpeng's idea of ​​bragging and continued: "According to historical records, Shao Ye shouldn't be from Huicheng, right? How could he be buried here?"

According to Lin Ran's understanding, since the Eastern Han Dynasty, officials of the previous dynasties, even if they served as officials in other places, would eventually be buried in their hometowns.

This is the Chinese idea of ​​returning fallen leaves to their roots.
