Chapter 271

So he carefully started digging from the side, turning the excavator to place the soil on the ground.

A bowl-shaped stone was revealed, with a notch on it that had just been broken.

The supervisor immediately walked over, picked it up, and said happily: "This looks like a bowl?"

Fang Yang was stunned. Where would a bowl come from at such a high place!

The cameraman was the first to be unable to help asking: "This doesn't look like one. Who uses a stone bowl? And the outside of this bowl is pitted and not smooth at all, how can you eat from it."

The supervisor, however, was unconcerned: "A long time ago, people lived near this volcano, so it's not strange to have a bowl."

Once these words were out, the cameraman was even more curious: "People lived in this place? Aren't they afraid of death!"

"This is true. Geologists and archaeological experts have said before that many people lived here during the Han Dynasty. At that time, the volcano was very quiet, and the surrounding environment was very good, with lush plants and beautiful scenery, many times better than it is now!"

"And because of the intermittent eruptions of this volcano for tens of thousands of years, the volcanic rock and other materials erupted have made the soil in this large area contain a large amount of phosphorus and potassium, so the land in this area is very fertile. Whether you grow crops or fruit here, the fruits that grow are all large and full, and very delicious."

The cameraman clicked his tongue in wonder, and even Fang Yang felt it was very interesting.

In his impression, it was impossible for people to live near a volcano; wasn't that courting death?

But he didn't expect that volcanic eruptions would make the land fertile.

The supervisor smiled and continued: "That's not all. Because of the existence of underground magma, there used to be many hot springs here, so more than two thousand years ago, this was a tourist resort, a good place for rich people to vacation! Now you should know that it's not strange to have a bowl!"

The cameraman nodded like a bobblehead after hearing this, but still asked suspiciously: "Why is this bowl shaped like this? It feels like it was fished out of cement."

"This... I don't know, maybe Fang Yang knows!"

After speaking, both of them looked over unconsciously.

Fang Yang smiled, jumped off the vehicle, and picked up the bowl to admire it.

Suddenly, the system panel popped up.

【Pottery Bowl】

【Era: Han Dynasty】

【Height about 5 cm, mouth diameter about 12.2 cm, bottom diameter about 7 cm】

【The bowl has a constricted mouth, curved walls, and a flat bottom. From the notch, it can be seen that the interior of the body is dark gray. The inner wall is brushed with white cosmetic powder, the one on the bottom has already fallen off, and the cosmetic powder on the outer wall does not reach the bottom. The exposed part of the body shows that the surface of the body is gray. The bottom and wall are thick, the mouth rim is thin, and the outer layer is wrapped in a thick layer of volcanic ash...】

After reading the introduction, Fang Yang was greatly surprised.

It really is a bowl!

The cameraman looked at Fang Yang: "Brother! Did you see anything?"

Fang Yang nodded and said lightly: "It is indeed a bowl, and it is indeed from the Han Dynasty."

The supervisor stood by and smiled.

"Then why is it shaped like this?"

Fang Yang thought for a while and did not answer his question: "I want to verify one thing, maybe you will know the answer in a while. Keep this bowl safe, it counts as a cultural relic."

These words left the two of them confused, but they were also more looking forward to what Fang Yang would dig up next.

The bowl just now was dug up at a depth of about one and a half meters underground.

Fang Yang decided to continue digging deeper.

However, not long after digging, he dug out another stone of the same material.

The stone was not big, about the size of a child's fist.

The cameraman and the supervisor did not notice.

Fang Yang jumped off the vehicle, walked over, and picked it up.

The material of this stone was obviously different from volcanic rock, and it also looked like a stone made of cement.

The moment he got it in his hand, the system panel popped up again.

What surprised Fang Yang was that the thing in his hand was not an ordinary stone.

【Jade Pig】

【Era: Han Dynasty】

【Material: Celadon-white jade】

【Length 13 cm, width 2.6 cm, height 2.3 cm】

【Jade pigs have been found in many Han Dynasty tombs, generally placed in the hands of the deceased as jade grips used for funerals. In the funeral customs of the Han Dynasty and later eras, the use of jade pigs was relatively popular. Some of the works have limbs standing upright, with the head and buttocks raised, and the image is relatively realistic...】

The cameraman asked suspiciously: "Brother, what's so good about a stone!"

Fang Yang smiled: "This is not an ordinary stone, this is a piece of jade! There is a jade pig carved inside, used for funerals!"

Now both of them were stunned.

Although they hadn't seen much jade, they had at least seen pigs run even if they hadn't eaten pork.

The jade on TV looks relatively smooth from the outside and has color inside.

But the one in Fang Yang's hand looked like a cement ball no matter how you looked at it.

The cameraman's eyes lit up: "Then didn't we get rich again? How much is it worth?"

Fang Yang smiled helplessly: "This is also a cultural relic, not natural jade, it has to be handed over later."

The supervisor next to him was confused: "Why are you two so sure it's jade?"

The cameraman curled his lips: "My brother said it is, so it must be!"

【Popularity】 +1+1+1+1....

——【What's the situation? Cultural relics can be dug up on a volcano. If Fang Yang is thrown to the moon one day, can he dig up cultural relics! Looking at this posture, could it be that he dug up an ancient tomb? This bowl and jade pig are both burial objects, maybe there are many cultural relics below, but the problem is, where is the coffin? Where is the tomb owner's grave, why don't I see it.】

——【Wasn't there a funeral called sky burial before, which is to put the dead person's coffin directly in the highest position and let birds eat the corpse. But the problem is that this position is not the highest point, could it be that the volcanic eruption sprayed it down? I feel this is more reasonable, and the coffin was burned away anyway.】

——【Are you guys kidding, where did the Han Dynasty have sky burials? Sky burials are customs only found in the Tibetan area. Don't guess blindly. If the things Fang Yang dug up could be guessed by you so easily, then he wouldn't be him! My intuition tells me this is not an ancient tomb; the funeral customs of the Han Dynasty were not like this.】

——【I thought today would dig up the volcano and make it erupt, but it seems I thought too much. Since this place dares to open to the public, it means its safety measures must be fine. Think carefully, if it really erupts, Fang Yang will definitely die. Now I can't imagine what will be dug up today.】

The supervisor opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything.

Fang Yang looked at the jade pig in his hand and asked suspiciously: "You said before that many people lived here before, then what happened later?"

"Later?"

The supervisor looked up and thought for a while.

"It seems that archaeological experts don't know either, just analyzed based on the terrain and some historical books. Later, it is estimated that the environment here was destroyed, and everyone moved away. I don't know the specific situation!"

Fang Yang's heart sank upon hearing this, and he had a faint feeling that something was wrong.

A terrible thought suddenly arose in his heart.

But now, just this little bit of evidence can't explain anything.

So he quickly climbed into the driver's cab and continued digging.

This time, he continued to dig along the original pit.

The pit had already been dug to a depth of about two meters.

After a while, with a clang!

The bucket dug out a stone from the soil.

The stone looked square and upright, and it was also wrapped in a layer of cement-like substance.

Fang Yang jumped off the vehicle without saying a word to check.

This time there was no system prompt.

It was clearly just an ordinary stone.

This scene left the two people next to him confused.

At this time, a beautiful woman playing by the mountain road glanced over here unintentionally.

One of them suddenly exclaimed: "Look! Is that Fang Yang?"

"Can't see clearly, but there is a cameraman next to him, it's highly likely!"

"We are so lucky, we can see Fang Yang when we come out to play today, let's go over and take a look!"

"Okay!"

The four beauties were all dressed fashionably and lightly, walking towards Fang Yang.

When they reached the front, they screamed: "Ah!! It's really Fang Yang!"

This scream immediately attracted the attention of the cameraman and the others.

I saw the four beauties running over as if they had seen money, and they all took out their mobile phones to take pictures.
