Chapter 140 The Disappeared Tomb
After hearing the old village chief’s story, Chen Aiguo said disapprovingly: “Old village chief, isn’t this myth you said? We all know that this is fake.”
The old village chief was a little angry when he heard Chen Aiguo's words: "Fake it, who said it was fake? Our village was established by King Mu of Zhou at that time. We have been waiting for King Mu of Zhou to arrive next time for generations."
Chen Jianguo was a little surprised when he heard the old village chief telling the origin of the village. He asked the old village chief in disbelief: "Old village chief, if what you said is true, then it has been thousands of years since King Mu of Zhou that time. King Mu of Zhou should have died."
After hearing Chen Jianguo's words, the old village chief was silent for a long time before continuing: "I don't know either, but according to ancient books, King Mu of Zhou bathed in the water of the Yaochi and achieved a pure body. Life and death are not limited by life span."
After hearing the old village chief’s words, Chen Jianguo immediately asked excitedly: “Old village chief, are the ancient books you mentioned still preserved intact? Can you let the outside world see them?”
The old village chief smiled and said indifferently: "If it were my grandfather's time, let alone reading ancient books, as long as you dare to enter the house where ancient books are stored, you will be beaten to death. But I have already seen it now, so come with me."
The old village chief brought the two brothers of the Chen family to a house that specializes in preserving ancient books. After the old village chief opened the wooden door and brought the two into the house, the Chen family brothers finally understood why ancient people said that the scholarly families were famous.
The decorations in the room are very simple, but you can smell a faint fragrance as soon as you enter the door. This fragrance is not strong, but after smelling it, I suddenly feel energetic.
Chen Jianguo was a little curious about the source of these fragrances, so he asked the old village chief: "Old village chief, why does this house have a fragrance? This smells quite nice."
After hearing Chen Jianguo's words, the old village chief smiled and said, "All the wood in this house is made of agarwood, and all the wood is painted with tung oil made from Yaochi Water and Yongling Fruit, so the fragrance can last forever in the house."
The old village chief touched the bookshelf and continued to introduce: "According to legend, this house was built by King Mu of Zhou at that time. Although the house was built in only 2 days, King Mu of Zhou also waited here for 2 or 2 days. The books on the bookshelf were put on by King Mu of Zhou himself."
Chen Jianguo was very excited when he heard the old village chief telling the origin of the books on the bookshelf. He carefully took out a book from the bookshelf and opened it gently. According to his hand, Chen Jianguo realized that the material of the book was not paper, but made of unknown leather. The words on it were indeed written from the Western Zhou Dynasty.
However, Chen Jianguo's research direction is not the text, so although he can determine what period of text it was, the content is irrecognizable.
The three of them left the house without staying in the house for too long.
The three of them returned to the old village chief's house, and Chen Jianguo kindly said to the old village chief: "Old village chief, thank you again for saving me. I want to discuss some things with you."
The old village chief did not answer the conversation, but just signaled Chen Jianguo to say directly with his eyes.
Chen Jianguo saw the old village chief's eyes and continued, "The old village chief is like this. Now there are no kings, princes, generals and ministers outside. It is our people who are in charge of the country. Moreover, the lives of people outside have become very difficult to be rich. I want you to take the villagers out of here and live outside."
After hearing Chen Jianguo's words, the old village chief was silent for a while. In fact, after seeing Chen Jianguo's clothes, the old village chief knew that the outside world was different from the village now.
Although the old village chief has a relatively open mind now, the village has been ruled since ancient times, and has to wait for King Mu of Zhou to come here for generations, and the old village chief does not want to destroy it.
Besides, going to the outside world will definitely make life better than you are now? The old village chief was a little confused, so the old village chief hesitated for a long time and finally rejected Chen Jianguo's proposal.
After hearing the old village chief's answer, Chen Jianguo left the village with a regretful look.
When he left the village and followed the rescue team back, Chen Aiguo kept looking towards Kunlun Mountain from time to time.
Not long after, Chen Aiguo suddenly said, "Everyone stopped moving and camped on the spot." Although everyone didn't know what Chen Aiguo wanted to do, they all followed Chen Aiguo's arrangements.
Everyone was busy setting up camp, while Chen Aiguo went back and forth without knowing what he was looking for, but just kept looking up at the Kunlun Mountains in the distance.
When Chen Jianguo saw Chen Aiguo like this, he suddenly had some thoughts in his mind. The two of them met. Chen Aiguo seemed to know what Chen Jianguo wanted to ask, so he nodded directly.
After Chen Aiguo seemed to have confirmed something, Chen Aiguo said to a team member who was camping on the side: "Ergouzi, come here."
The team member who was called by Chen Aiguo put down the tools in his hand and complained to Chen Aiguo: "How many times have you said, don't call me the nickname Ergouzi, but call me the name Chen Rui, the eldest brother Goudan."
Chen Aiguo heard the complaint in Chen Rui's mouth and cursed: "Ergouzi, you are not the nickname that always calls me. Come here quickly. You are camping at my location now, and then call Sanluzi on a satellite phone and ask him to arrange a helicopter to pick us up."
After Chen Rui heard Chen Aiguo's arrangement, Chen Aiguo's satellite phone in his hand said to Chen Aiguo: "Brother Goudan, you are getting lazy now. Even if you ask Sanluzi to arrange a helicopter, you have to come tomorrow. We are walking now and we will almost go out tomorrow."
Chen Aiguo heard Chen Rui’s complaint, kicked Chen Rui and said to Chen Rui: “If you want to hit you, just hit you, don’t ask so many things.”
He flexibly avoided the kicking of his big feet, and Chen Rui hid aside and called.
At this time, not far away, Chen Jianguo put down the tools in his hand and walked towards Chen Aiguo, looking at Chen Aiguo with some desire to speak but stopping.
Chen Aiguo said to Chen Jianguo: "I know what you want to ask. I am now confirming what was wrong when you called for help. Is someone deliberately making trouble?"
At noon the next day, a huge transport helicopter stayed above the camp, with more shrubs here, so the helicopter could not land.
Just as everyone was packing their luggage and preparing to go back, Chen Aiguo took the lead in boarding the helicopter and contacted Chen Rui by phone: "Ergouzi, you don't have to clean up your tent and stay where you are, and you don't have to turn off the satellite phone. Just stay in the tent, and you will help others clean up."
Because we knew that the helicopter was coming today, everyone packed their luggage in advance and waited for the helicopter to arrive in the tent.
