Chapter 273

Fang Yang shook his head and looked up at the crater above: "They died in a volcanic eruption! In an instant, a large amount of volcanic ash, volcanic rock debris, and sulfuric acid gas were erupted, and they had no time to escape. At the last moment of their lives, they chose a deep kiss, and then were forever frozen in the dust of history."

"The reason why they turned into the appearance of stone carvings now is because the heat energy of the volcanic ash from the volcanic eruption caused most of the substances to carbonize instantly, and then they were wrapped, eventually forming the appearance of this kind of stone carving! The other things are the same!"

"In such an environment, even wood, linen, and the like can be carbonized and preserved!"

After hearing Fang Yang's analysis, the archaeologists were a little unbelievable.

They only know archaeology and not geology, so they couldn't understand the cultural relic scene caused by this volcanic eruption at all.

Before they could react, Fang Yang spoke again: "At the beginning, I was guessing that there must have been a volcanic eruption here, so there would be these carbonization phenomena."

"But I'm not sure what it looked like here before and whether anyone lived here. Now it is basically certain that humans lived here before, and the disaster came very suddenly. They didn't have time to run, so they hugged and kissed to face death together!"

"Since it was a sudden disaster, I suspect that there may be more than this one place with such stone carvings nearby, maybe under this piece of soil!"

——【Holy crap, this is actually a statue turned from a living person? This is too scary! I don't quite understand, even if it's a volcanic eruption, shouldn't the magma erupt and burn the people away directly? Why did it turn into this? Is there anyone big enough to popularize science.】

——【Because this situation is not a disaster caused by magma, but huge volcanic rocks and high-temperature volcanic ash. By the time the magma flowed over, they had already been wrapped in layers of thick volcanic ash, and the interior was also carbonized by high temperature, so they were not burned away.】

——【In the face of natural disasters, humans seem so small. Even with current technology, volcanic eruptions will cause a large number of deaths. As long as this thing erupts, it is like a nuclear bomb explosion, and it is the kind that explodes into the sky, and then falls down. As long as the people nearby are, they can't run away.】

——【Ancient people didn't know how terrible volcanoes were, and they dared to live next to the volcano. Isn't this courting death! If it sleeps quietly, it's fine. If it erupts, you can't even run. These two people are probably a couple. Choosing to hug and kiss at the last moment shows that they are true love!】

Chen Feng and the others hadn't had time to digest the previous information, and Fang Yang threw another heavy bomb at them.

Their brains were buzzing!

If it is as Fang Yang said, this is not as simple as discovering a few cultural relics.

But discovered an ancient ruin!

Everyone's face was full of surprise. After a few days of stability, they finally had new cultural relics to study, and it was a whole ruin.

But for now, it's just Fang Yang's guess, and everything needs to be verified before it can be confirmed.

To save time, Fang Yang climbed directly onto the excavator and started digging on the spot.

He stopped after digging one and a half meters and let the archaeological team dig, while he went to dig elsewhere.

Not long after, the archaeological team exclaimed: "Dug up cultural relics again!"

In this way, they dug continuously for more than half an hour, and a deep pit of more than 30 square meters was dug around.

During this period, carbonized cultural relics were dug out from the mud pit one by one.

Fang Yang didn't continue digging. His idea had been verified, and there was no need to continue.

After all, archaeology cannot be finished in a day or two, and he cannot keep helping to dig here.

Chen Feng was already smiling, and personally joined the archaeological team.

Dozens of archaeological experts at the scene worked in division of labor, and more and more human statues were discovered.

Some of them were lying on the ground praying to God, some were holding their children high, and some were cuddling with each other.

Every stone carving is lifelike, even the outline of the child is clearly visible.

But in the face of such a scene, the archaeologists at the scene couldn't laugh.

Through these vivid stone carvings, one can fully imagine the despair of the people at that time when facing the disaster.

They seemed to be frozen by time and buried by volcanic ash to this day.

The excavation at the scene was very easy, mainly because most of them had been carbonized, making them easy to find.

In addition to human statues, there were some agricultural tools and even food and some human and animal bones.

Not all people turned into stone carvings, and some turned into white bones.

But they were all preserved very well.

For example, those crops and pottery bowls, if you remove the carbonized substances on them, they will look like new.

But some are happy and some are sad. The supervisor of the scenic spot watched the archaeological team in full swing, and his face almost became a bitter melon.

Muttering in his mouth: "It's over, it's over, my scenic rest point, it can't be built now!"

Fang Yang smiled: "Think from another angle, now your scenic spot has an extra archaeological project, won't there be more tourists coming to visit!"

Once these words were out, the wrinkles on the supervisor's face stretched out instantly, and his smile opened wide: "Yes, yes, yes!! Why did I forget this! This is a good thing!"

Looking at the supervisor's appearance, Fang Yang was speechless, but then thought of something and asked curiously: "Are you sure it was a very lively tourist resort here before? And it was during the Han Dynasty?"

The supervisor patted his chest, very confident: "Since I am the supervisor of the scenic spot, I must clarify the history here. These have been verified, and they are definitely not nonsense!"

Fang Yang frowned upon hearing this.

He turned to look at the foot of the mountain, and the scene of the volcanic eruption at that time couldn't help but come to his mind, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"Then where did they live at that time? At the foot of the mountain or further away?"

"This... I'm not very clear, it should not be far from here, after all, the resources near the volcano were the richest at that time."

Fang Yang took a deep breath and looked at the foot of the mountain again.

This area was designated as a scenic spot for planting green plants, and the foot of the mountain was lush with trees.

He also believed that the land here might indeed have been very fertile back then.

The scene of ancient people living here 2,000 years ago couldn't help but come to his mind.

But suddenly thinking of the people on the mountain who didn't have time to escape during the volcanic eruption.

Looking at the foot of the mountain again, a terrible thought was born in his mind.

Why is there no subsequent record of the prosperous town back then.

For what reason did they leave here, or rather, they never left!!

The more he thought about it, the more afraid he became. Fang Yang shouted at the archaeological team: "Chen Feng, come here!"

Chen Feng was stunned when he heard this, and immediately patted the mud on his hands and walked over: "What's wrong? Did you find anything again?"

Fang Yang nodded with a solemn expression: "I suggest calling more people to dig in the forest below, dig deeper! There may be unusual things buried below."

"And the supervisor of the scenic spot also said that this was a prosperous tourist resort during the Han Dynasty. I suggest you contact the Cultural Relics Bureau to check the history here, whether this tourist resort disappeared because of the volcanic eruption, and where the people at that time went!"

Chen Feng was stunned when he heard this.

Didn't quite understand.

But then his face changed drastically, and his lips were a little trembling: "You... you... you don't want to tell me, there might be an ancient city buried below, right?"

Fang Yang didn't nod, just looked into the distance and said lightly: "The people on the mountain couldn't run away, do you think the people at the foot of the mountain had time to run?"

Hiss~~

Once these words were out, not only Chen Feng, but the supervisor next to him also gasped.

If this is really the case, the tourist resort back then was very likely to have disappeared because of the volcanic eruption.

The reason why it disappeared was not that the houses were demolished by people.

But it was submerged by volcanic ash.

Chen Feng immediately picked up his mobile phone and contacted Director Xu.

"Hello! Director! Major discovery, Fang Yang discovered a Han Dynasty ruin on the volcano!"

"Good thing! This guy finally remembered to dig up some cultural relics!"

"There is a very important thing to do here now. Fang Yang analyzed that it is very likely to be an ancient city of the Han Dynasty!! Let you help check the historical records here, find the records of volcanic eruptions, and by the way, transfer more people to the scene to excavate."

Director Xu was shocked when he heard this!

Ancient city!

Just these two words represent its weight.

If it is really discovered, its news will be enough to shock Huaxia and even the world archaeological community.

Most importantly, this was said by Fang Yang.

Even if it's not a sure thing, it's eight or nine out of ten.

Immediately after hanging up the phone, he personally led hundreds of people to the scene to excavate, and at the same time contacted historians to help check relevant information.

Unknowingly, a big mountain invisibly pressed on everyone's heart.

Especially Fang Yang, he would rather his analysis be wrong.

If there is really an ancient city below, then the scene excavated at that time can be fully imagined.

There will be countless carbonized stone carvings presented to the world.

They were all living human beings.

But more than 2,000 years ago, they ushered in a terrible doomsday!

Think from another perspective, how desperate it must have been at that time.
