Treasure Hunting Divine Eyes

Chapter 783 Liangshe Village

In this place of Luocheng, it is not uncommon to accidentally dig out large tombs from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties in the farmland. The most famous one is the theft of the Jincun tomb in Luocheng a hundred years ago. The loss is even greater than the theft of the Mogao Grottoes.

The bronze stick in Li Mo's hand looks a bit like the trunk of an oil lamp, and it needs further identification and confirmation as to which part of the bronze it is.

"Uncle, you said that this stick was dug out in the farmland, did you dig out other things?"

"There are really some other fragments. I called the Bureau of Cultural Heritage to report this, but the person who answered the phone said that all the staff had been transferred to check some cultural relics, so I came to the Antique City to find someone to look at first. Look."

The Bureau of Cultural Protection must be very busy these days.

"Professor Li, you are an expert in this field, do you have any opinion on this stick?"

"Uncle, this matter is very important. I will talk to you alone later. Boss Hu, please take this uncle to a meeting. I will talk about it after I am done."

"OK."

Li Mo's next appraisal speed was much faster. Among the antiques brought over, there were genuine ones and some fake ones. The one that is genuine is naturally very happy. As for those unpleasant conclusions, Li Mo just goes to the end.

At noon, Boss Hu kindly sent away the last wave of customers, and then closed the business.

"Professor Li, today is an eye-opener."

"The more you read, the more you understand."

The farmer waited for a long time, and when he finally finished the appraisal, he hurried over and asked, "Professor Li, does the stick I brought have some history?"

"At present, my preliminary judgment is that it belongs to the bronze part of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. I guess that there may be a large tomb of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty under the farmland."

"Oh, I was worried about this, so I reported it in a hurry. In the Jin Village near us, a group of tombs from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty were dug out a hundred years ago. Unfortunately, in that chaotic era, the authorities have not yet responded. The large tombs were completely robbed. I heard that the stolen cultural relics are now placed in foreign museums, which is really sad."

The old farmer looked anxious.

"Uncle, don't worry, we'll go back with you after dinner. I know quite a few archaeologists. They are currently investigating some stolen ancient tombs near Los Angeles. If we really find something new, Experts from all walks of life can be mobilized at any time.”

"That's good, Professor Li, I will trust you."

"Professor Li, I'll go with you after dinner, don't you think it's convenient?"

When Boss Hu heard that there were many archaeological experts working near Los Angeles, he couldn't miss such a good opportunity to get to know them.

"Boss Hu will come with us if he is free, maybe he will find something big."

"All right, I've already ordered lunch, let's eat first."

The old farmer was surnamed Liang and lived in a village called Liangshe. After lunch, five luxury cars left Los Angeles and drove towards the countryside.

"Uncle Liang, are there still many young people in the village?"

"There are a total of more than 30 families in our village. Most of them are old people and some children who are still living in the village. The young and middle-aged have all gone out to work." Uncle Liang sighed, "I remember when I was young, the village People living on the one-acre-three-tenths of land at home, life is hard, but every day is very happy. Unlike now, young and middle-aged people go out to work, and they may not have time to go back to their hometown all year round. Although they have some money , but there is always something missing in life.”

"How many people are there in Uncle Liang's family?"

"Two sons and a daughter. After the son got married, he gave birth to three granddaughters. Two grandchildren, the oldest granddaughter is fifteen years old and lives in the third grade of junior high school."

"My daughter's life is not good. My son-in-law got a serious illness a few years ago, and his family was wiped out, and no one was rescued. Her parents-in-law thought she was a bastard and didn't want to see her, so the daughter-in-law brought her granddaughter back to her mother's house. live with us."

"The two sons have been working outside these years. Fortunately, we have a daughter to accompany us. Compared with other elderly people, we are much happier. I just feel sorry for my daughter, and I always worry that she will be lonely for the rest of her life."

Uncle Liang was in a bad mood.

"Uncle, life will get better and better."

"Our old couple has no shortage of food and clothing, and our house has been renovated, so we hope that the children will be happy."

Li Mo felt a little uncomfortable, but the current state of the whole society is like this. Young and middle-aged people go to the city to work, while the elderly and children live in their hometown. It's good to go home once or twice a year, and some people don't go home for several years.

Five luxury cars were speeding on the county road, and other cars gave way one after another along the way. Li Mo looked out through the car window. The economic development here is far inferior to that of the coastal cities.

After two o'clock in the afternoon, the car was parked on the side of the cement road. Not far away was a row of old houses from the countryside, some of which had recently been refurbished.

It was probably the first time I saw so many luxury cars, and the elderly and children at home ran out to look at them curiously.

Li Mo got out of the car and looked around. There were patches of farmland nearby, and mountains and hills in the distance.

"Professor Li, our place is full of mountains, hills, and lakes."

"It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with outstanding people, so it is also a place of geomantic omen. The ancestors built the summer here, and in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, there is a reason why the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty held his capital here."

Uncle Liang laughed, pointed to the hilly terrain not far away and said, "I found out that the news about the bronze ware hasn't been heard yet, so I'll take you there to see it now."

"Okay, if I really find out, I can mobilize people in time."

There were only eighteen people who followed Li Mo to Luocheng. If a large tomb from the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, or even a group of large tombs, was found here, then there must be not enough people.

The archaeological community has always believed that the tombs of Jincun, Luocheng, which were stolen a hundred years ago, belonged to the tombs of the Zhou royal family. However, the tomb robbers acted fast at that time and almost robbed the tombs. The remaining clues could not be used for systematic archaeological research. .

Regardless of whether the Jincun tombs are the tombs of the Zhou royal family and emperors, at least it shows that there are too many Shang and Zhou tombs hidden in this place in Luocheng.

"Boss Hu, are you familiar with the Jincun Tombs?"

"The theft of the Jincun Tomb Group is a great loss to the archaeological community of our country, and it is a permanent pain for the Chinese nation. It has been about a hundred years, and the Jincun Tomb Group will eventually become history. Who would care about this today's young people?"

Boss Hu sighed slightly.

Li Mo followed Uncle Liang and walked towards the nearby farmland.

"This is a hilly terrain, and the main plants are melons and fruits that are relatively easy to take care of. The place where I found the bronze ware was next to my fruit field. I wanted to dig a water storage channel by myself, but accidentally dug it out. A few bronze shards."

Uncle Liang asked while leading the way: "Professor Li, if there is an ancient tomb under my fruit field, can my fruit field still be kept? Will the authorities give enough compensation when the land is requisitioned?"

"Uncle Liang, don't worry, I'm here, aren't you?"

Li Mo comforted him with a few words. If he really found a tomb from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, there would be bonuses and fruit field compensation, and it would be more than he imagined.

"I definitely believe in Professor Li."
