Dream Legend

Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong decided to take the high-speed rail to the National Cultural Heritage Administration in the capital, and declined Fan Cheng's offer to pick them up with a special car. It is better to be low-key and down-to-earth. Wu Shandi feels that he is just an ordinary person, but he has some special powers. He doesn't need to show off like Fan Zhongzhong, who was promoted three times in a row in the novel, so as to avoid being pointed at behind his back. Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong each took their own suitcases and started to set off. Lin Fan, Shan Ming, He Le, He Juan and Sun Jingjing all came out to see them off. It can be seen that everyone is reluctant to leave, especially He Juan, whose eyes are shining with tears. She has many things to say to Wu Shandi in her heart but can't say them. Wu Shandi seemed to remember something. He walked up to He Juan, took off the phoenix necklace from his neck and wanted to return it to He Juan. He Juan quickly said to Wu Shandi, "I can't use it, but you can. Just consider it a gift from me to you." "Hahaha, Captain Wu, this is a token of love. You can't just give it back to a girl." Zhao Peng appeared behind her and said loudly, making He Juan blush immediately. She leaned shyly on Sun Jingjing's shoulders. Sun Jingjing added, "My weak shoulders can't bear it. Sister Juan, you'd better lean on Captain Wu's broad and strong shoulders." This caused everyone to boo. Zhao Peng was accompanied by Zhang Yan, who had a crush on Du Xiaoyong. Zhang Yan was holding a red bag in her hand. She walked straight to Du Xiaoyong, gave the red bag to Du Xiaoyong and said affectionately: "Du Xiaoyong, this is a little gift from me, just accept it. I'm happy for you to know you are leaving school to go to work. You will always be the Harry Potter in my heart. See you later, Xiaoyong!" After that, Zhang Yan turned around and left. Du Xiaoyong took the red bag from Zhang Yan and said loudly to Zhang Yan's back: "Thank you, Zhang Yan." Sun Jingjing urged Du Xiaoyong again: "Du Xiaoyong, catch up with her, catch up with her." But Du Xiaoyong stood there indifferent. There was no need to pull and tug at someone he didn't like. Instead, he had to cut off her thoughts and forget about himself, so as to start his own new love journey.

Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong carried their own suitcases and walked out of the Capital High-speed Railway Station one after another. Fan Cheng's special car had been waiting for a long time. Fan Cheng settled Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong in a quiet courtyard, and then took Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong to the office of the State Administration of Cultural Heritage to handle the entry procedures. Fan Cheng arranged Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong to work in an office on the east side of the second floor. Fan Cheng led Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong into the office, where a handsome young man stood up and greeted Fan Cheng: "Hello, Director Fan." Fan Cheng pointed at Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong and said to the young man: "Wang Jin, let me introduce these two new colleagues to you. This one is Wu Shandi, and that one is Du Xiaoyong." The young man shook hands and greeted Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong enthusiastically: "Hello, my name is Wang Jin. Wu Shandi's name is already well-known in our unit. It turns out to be you. Nice to meet you! I have been working here for two years. Welcome to join our exploration team." Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong were moved by Wang Jin's enthusiasm. They had just arrived at the job, but they were very popular with their colleagues. This must be the credit of Director Fan Cheng. They boasted about how excellent and amazing Wu Shandi was in the unit. Before they even came to work, Director Fan labeled them as awesome and excellent. Wu Shandi said to Wang Jin with a smile on his face: "Brother Wang, we are new here, just tell us what you need." After that, Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong nodded to Wang Jin. Fan Cheng spoke at this time: "This is the office of the Exploration Department. There are only five people here. The other two, Zhang Longxiang and Peng Xin, went to Sichuan for an exploration some time ago. I announce that Wu Shandi will be the chief of the Exploration Department and Du Xiaoyong will be the assistant chief of the Exploration Department. Since you two are new here, you can ask Wang Jin if you have any questions." After that, Fan Cheng said to Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong: "You two are new here, first get familiar with the new environment here and adapt to the work rhythm here as soon as possible. Most of the exploration work is done in remote places outside the province, so you two should be mentally prepared." Fan Cheng said and left.

Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong must adapt to and face a new working environment. This job is purely a hobby for Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong. It is not for money or fame, but for the interest in exploring unknown areas. Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong probably won't be able to spend all their money in this lifetime. If the hundreds of millions of funds of the Shenquan Group were all deposited in the bank, the interest alone would be a huge sum of money. They can't spend it all if they stay at home and don't work. Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong like this kind of work because they are interested in it. The other three people in the exploration department: Wang Jin, Zhang Longxiang, and Peng Xin are different. The three of them work to survive. The three of them graduated from famous universities and majored in geological exploration. They are absolutely first-class in professional and technical knowledge such as geographical geology, surface distribution, and soil analysis. Otherwise, they would not be able to work in the exploration department of the State Administration of Cultural Heritage. Every profession has its own specialty, and Wu Shandi's specialty is an alternative, comparable to a combination of a universal detector and CT scanning imaging.

Wu Shandi received a call from Fan Cheng, who asked Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong to pick up their daily necessities and go with him to Sichuan Shudi for an investigation in the evening. Fan Cheng did not say what he was going to investigate on the phone, probably because of confidentiality, so it was difficult to explain in detail on the phone. Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong also realized the mystery and confidentiality of this job, which was challenging and forward-looking. The investigation work of the Cultural Relics Bureau is the vanguard of the work. The investigation work is particularly important and critical. Once the investigation work is delayed or mistakes are made, the subsequent work cannot be followed up in time. Fan Cheng recruited outstanding talents like Wu Shandi who are foresighted and foresighted, just to ensure the accuracy and speed of the vanguard, which is often said to be fast, fierce and accurate. Fan Cheng is worthy of being called Fan Yijian. He can tell the authenticity of cultural relics at a glance, and he is just as accurate in judging people. Fan Cheng took Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong on the high-speed rail directly to Sichuan. They got off the high-speed rail in Mianyang City just as the sky was getting light. They took a bus to the county town and then took a taxi. After a long journey, they arrived at a small village at the foot of a mountain.

The architectural style of the small mountain village is obviously that of an ethnic minority village. As soon as we got off the car, two young men from the village surrounded us. One of them was a tall and thin man, about 30 years old. He came over to greet Fan Cheng, "Director Fan, we really hope you can come soon." The other man, who was a little fatter and shorter, about 28 or 29 years old, came over to help Fan Cheng carry the suitcase. Fan Cheng nodded, looked at them and said, "Zhang Longxiang, Peng Xin, are you all right? Today I have brought two elite soldiers to help you." After saying that , Fan Cheng took Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong to introduce them to each other: "The tall and thin one is Zhang Longxiang, the deputy chief of the Exploration Section, the fat one is Peng Xin, a senior engineer of the Exploration Section. The one on my left is the new chief of the Exploration Section, Wu Shandi, and this one is the new assistant chief of the Exploration Section, Du Xiaoyong." The four of them exchanged greetings and moved their suitcases and equipment into an old house one by one. Comrades from the village committee also came over to ask about their well-being and specifically told them to have dinner in the village in the evening.

There were only five people from the Cultural Relics Bureau left in the room. Fan Cheng first introduced the situation here, mainly to Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong, "This is the foot of Shu Mountain, a gathering area for the Yi ethnic minority. Many tomb robbers were spotted on Shu Mountain, and the villagers reported it to the public security organs. Now these tomb robbers are basically under control. According to the tomb robbers, there are ancient tombs of kings and nobles from the Spring and Autumn Period buried here, but no one knows the exact location, so Zhang Longxiang and Peng Xin were sent in advance to take the lead. Zhang Longxiang and Peng Xin will introduce the specific situation below to everyone." Zhang Longxiang cleared his throat and said to everyone, "Peng Xin and I found tomb robbers on the mountain. The hole was only one meter deep. We used the Luoyang shovel to investigate the depth of the hole, but did not find any abnormalities in the soil layer below or signs of artificial compaction. We can judge that there is no possibility of an ancient tomb around this hole. It is estimated that these tomb robbers thought that the feng shui of that place was good, and they surmised that there was an ancient tomb under that place. Engineer Peng will talk about the latest situation. "Peng Xin took out a notebook and said to everyone, "This Shu Mountain has lush vegetation, an altitude of more than 3,000 meters, and an area of ​​500 to 600 square kilometers. The most likely places for the existence of ancient tombs are basically ruled out for the perennial snow on the top of the mountain, and it is also impossible to be on cliffs and flat land. There is no such possibility. The most likely place is the gentle slopes halfway up the mountain and at the foot of the mountain. After more than ten days of investigation, I have sorted out the most likely places for ancient tombs, about fifteen in total. I have marked their geographical locations to facilitate our investigation. This is our latest investigation." At this time, Du Xiaoyong asked a question: "Didn't you say that the tomb robbers said there are ancient tombs from the Spring and Autumn Period here? We can investigate based on the characteristics of tombs from the Spring and Autumn Period, which will make it easier to rule out some places." Zhang Longxiang nodded to agree with Du Xiaoyong's point of view, and said to everyone: "In fact, we can only judge by the buildings on the tombs. The soil on the tomb is piled up to form a raised mound. This kind of mound tomb shows the identity and status of the deceased to the world through its remarkable appearance, such as being as tall as a mountain and trees as thick as a forest. However, after two thousand years of wind and rain erosion or geological changes, it has long been unrecognizable and cannot be seen from the outside. These are conclusions drawn from practice. The most important means now is to dig out the deep soil layer with a Luoyang shovel and judge according to the characteristics of the soil layer. There is also the use of metal detectors to detect the buried metal objects in the tomb, but this method is basically unable to detect deep tombs. "Fan Cheng affirmed everyone's speech. Only by expressing their own opinions can the work be done better. Fan Cheng said to everyone very happily: "I know that the exploration work here has encountered unprecedented difficulties and it is indeed difficult. So today I brought Section Chief Wu Shandi. He was the first to contribute to the last Nanhai No. 1 ancient shipwreck. You have also heard of his ability!"

Zhang Longxiang and Peng Xin had heard what Director Fan had said, but they didn't take it seriously. Today, Director Fan brought Wu Shandi here as a section chief. There must be something special about him. Zhang Longxiang and Peng Xin were both from the system, so they nodded in agreement and said to Fan Cheng: "Director Fan, of course we know the ability of Section Chief Wu. You have said it many times. It is you, Director Fan, who has a keen eye and found such an excellent talent as Section Chief Wu." Wu Shandi felt disgusted by Zhang Longxiang and Peng Xin's flattering answer, but he let it go after a moment's thought. It was nothing strange. They had no choice. Du Xiaoyong was always thinking about one thing that he couldn't figure out. Why could tomb robbers find tombs quickly and accurately? Even though they had received formal education and were familiar with various astronomical, geographical and historical knowledge, it sometimes took them several years to find an ancient tomb. This puzzled Du Xiaoyong. Tomb robbers could find ancient tombs accurately with only some knowledge or legends about burial mounds and feng shui. When Wu Shandi heard the flattery from Zhang Longxiang and Peng Xin, he immediately responded: "Director Fan thinks highly of me. I will continue to learn from you two seniors with an open mind. I still need to consult you seniors in many aspects." Saying these useless polite words was simply a pile of waste. Wu Shandi felt bored and helpless.

Fan Cheng felt that the situation here was almost introduced, so he asked Zhang Longxiang and Peng Xin to take Wu Shandi and Du Xiaoyong out to familiarize themselves with the environment of the small mountain village and Shushan Mountain, especially the route up the mountain, otherwise there would be a risk of getting lost. There was also the issue of safety that could not be ignored, and they must take precautions, as there would be some wild animals in the dense vegetation. Zhang Longxiang and Peng Xin said that it would take an hour to get from the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain, and that they would have to carry some equipment up the mountain, so the actual time up the mountain would be longer.

Du Xiaoyong also bought some books on the I Ching and Feng Shui from the Internet to enrich his knowledge and expand his horizons. He said that learning from others can help him improve his knowledge. Wu Shandi was full of expectations for the exploration of ancient tombs in the Spring and Autumn Period. At this time, Fan Cheng said to everyone, "It's getting late. It's time to go to the village for dinner." If the Yi ethnic minority invites you to dinner, you must go, otherwise you will be misunderstood by the Yi compatriots, who will disrespect them and be unfriendly to them. Only when you go to the village to drink and eat meat with them will they think you are their friend and treat you as a friend. These are the customs and habits of the Yi people. We must respect and understand them, otherwise it will bring some unnecessary trouble. Moreover, Fan Cheng, Wu Shandi and others will stay here for a long time, and they must have a good relationship with the Yi people. After all, this is their territory, and they will have someone to take care of them in the future. Going to the village for dinner, Fan Cheng told everyone to drink as much as they wanted and not to leave until they were drunk. This was a way to respect the Yi people, and the Yi people would trust us more and treat us as good friends. Everyone should be prepared to get drunk tonight.
