Chapter 225: Chapter 173: Writer Lin is too Harsh! (5000 Word Chapter)_3
“`
“Received.”
The archaeological staff immediately executed the lockdown order, sealed off the site, and left behind temporary monitoring equipment.
The sunset gradually sank.
Qin Sisi, stepping in the fading glimmers of the sunset, returned the way she came, climbed into the off-road vehicle she’d arrived in, and looked at the leaping ridges outside the window.
The rushing wind blew in through the window, messing up her hair, and a complex expression surfaced on her quiet and gentle face.
A day’s long trek, scaling mountains and crossing ridges, intense work had left her legs slightly sore and her face somewhat weary.
But in her heart, layer upon layer of tides surged incessantly and could not calm down for a long time.
In the car.
She glanced at Old Yao, wanted to speak several times, but for some reason swallowed back her words again and again.
The faces of several archaeological staff in the car showed annoyed expressions.
To do archaeology, often at times, is to race against tomb robbers for time.
You have to beat the tomb robbers and protect the ancient tomb; that’s what counts as archaeology.
Quite obviously.
This time, they were behind the tomb robbers.
“This tomb is located at the convergence of the Five Dragons, and on the ancient map it belongs to the Lu Territory, it’s very likely a royal tomb from the Lu state during the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period,” said Professor Qi in the car, sighing and sharing his conjecture.
Old Yao’s face turned somewhat grim, nodded and said, “According to Professor Qi, this tomb has a very high burial standard, it indeed has this possibility, now we can only hope that the tomb robbers didn’t succeed, or that the precious relics are still in the tomb.”
As he said this.
Old Yao also sighed.
For archaeologists, this is the most distressing.
This feeling is like the person you’ve been chasing after, and you find out someone has already been there, and it’s highly possible that they caused wanton destruction.
For archaeologists, it is exactly so, very vexing.
Qin Sisi looked out the window.
She said nothing.
Finally, the two off-road vehicles left the mountain and stopped at a hotel in Linyi.
After dinner, Qin Sisi took off her day’s field attire, took a shower in the bathroom, then changed into casual clothes, and half-lied on the bed.
At this time.
She couldn’t wait to take out her phone, unlock QQ, find Lin Chuan’s avatar, and clicked on the chat box.
Her phone tapped rapidly, entering a long string of text.
But she hesitated to hit the ‘send’ button.
She hadn’t entered the tomb yet, she couldn’t be sure.
Qin Sisi pursed her lips, took a deep breath, deleted the long string of text, and then opened Shen Qianqian’s chat box:
“Qianqian, have you eaten yet?”
Shen Qianqian had finished work and replied quickly: “Just ate, aren’t you on an archaeological dig? How come you have time to chat with me?”
Qin Sisi gave a dry laugh, her fingers moving, and replied, “Went into the mountains today, the progress is not bad.”
“That’s great, a successful first battle!/Awesome.jpg,” Shen Qianqian replied.
“Oh, have you seen Lin Chuan’s novel?”
Qin Sisi deliberately steered the conversation towards Lin Chuan’s novel.
“You mean his new book ‘Touch Gold Notes’?” Shen Qianqian asked.
“Yes.”
“Of course I’ve seen it, I read every one of his novels, subscribed to all of them./Proud.jpg” Shen Qianqian replied with a smile.
“You’ve known Lin Chuan for a long time, you must be very familiar with him and his novels, right?” Qin Sisi asked.
“Of course.”
Shen Qianqian was not reticent about her old classmate.
