Chapter 277

But the gold content of this gold mine is as high as hundreds of grams. What is this concept!

Look at the size of this cave again, no wonder it has been mined for thousands of years.

According to the scale of the cave, the gold mine mined in this millennium is at least ten thousand taels of gold. Calculated at the current market price, it exceeds one billion!

Such a scale, such a gold content, definitely counts as a rare gold mine.

Chen Feng looked at Fang Yang suspiciously: "How did ancient people refine gold?"

Not only him, but others were also a little curious.

Fang Yang thought for a while: "Have you heard of a tool called a water pestle used by people in the past!"

Except for Chen Feng, everyone shook their heads.

"The water pestle is like the kind of wheel in the water on TV, but it is not used to fetch water, but is built by the side of a stream with a relatively large drop, using running water to turn the wheel, driving the gear plate, the other end of the gear plate is equipped with a stone pestle head, and the processing object is placed in the stone mortar below. It is a tool used by the ancients to process rice and the like!"

"Refining gold mines is to first use a water pestle to pound the mined gold ore into pieces, and then put it into a stone mill similar to the kind of grinding soy milk to grind it into mineral powder by turning the stone mill."

"Then put the mineral powder into a vessel and add rice flour to make a ball, process it with high temperature, make it into mineral gold, and put lead in the process of burning to make it slowly melt. Next is to re-smelt the block fused into lead, and after blowing, form lead oxide, and what is left is high-purity gold."

"Although the methods of the ancients are relatively backward and the equipment is not good, the principles are the same as modern ones!"

After listening to Fang Yang's explanation, everyone basically understood the process.

It's nothing more than turning stones into powder and then extracting them.

Fang Yang used the light to look at the depths of the cave: "Let's not stand here stupidly, let's go in and see, but be careful, don't have another collapse, and we will end up here like these ancestors."

Everyone nodded and decided to explore deeper.

During the time Fang Yang was explaining, the news that an ancient city from 2,000 years ago was discovered under the volcano had spread like crazy.

Especially in the archaeological community, it triggered a super earthquake.

This is not as simple as discovering ancient ruins, but setting off a doomsday history.

During this time, more Han Dynasty cultural relics were continuously excavated from the forest at the foot of the mountain.

Especially some pottery, as long as the carbonized substances on them are removed, they are exactly the same as they were new back then.

Even wooden items such as carriages and crops are preserved quite well.

What's more exaggerated is that even the food eaten back then was preserved.

Of course, the most amazing thing is how the actions of the people at that time when facing the doomsday were frozen.

It can be seen that such a discovery is not as simple as archaeological cultural relics, but restores the original appearance of this ancient city when the disaster came.

Just imagine, if this place is successfully excavated.

Modern people can see with their own eyes what the ancient city of the Han Dynasty looked like.

This is far more real and shocking than what is seen on TV series.

Dean He had already returned to Kyoto and was holding a network meeting with several other big shots.

In the conference room were Curator Zhou, Director Chen, and Director Qin of the Huaxia Cultural Relics Bureau.

It can be said that the top big shots in the archaeological community have gathered together to discuss the development of the ancient city.

"Everyone, I believe you have all heard about the ancient city. If it were someone else, I might still doubt it, but this was discovered by Fang Yang. Those who understand the authenticity understand it. Now what we want to talk about is how to excavate it. Relying solely on the archaeological strength of Xihai City is far from enough!"

"This matter probably still needs Director Chen's help. Where do we have as many people as he has? But Director Qin, this is your job. Old He, needless to say, your branch, but my National Museum has no benefits, and it's thankless!"

"Old Zhou, what you said is wrong. Making contributions to protecting cultural relics is our job. Is there any interest relationship? No, I originally wanted to discuss with Fang Yang to put the Jade Seal of the Realm in your place for an exhibition for a month, but it seems unnecessary now!"

"Don't, don't, don't! My National Museum will immediately gather 50 top archaeological experts to go to the scene to help excavate, okay! What about you old guys!"

"The people in the research institute have long been eager to go to excavate and study. I have already arranged this matter, don't worry, definitely not less than 200 people!"

"Don't look at me, my Cultural Relics Bureau already has thousands of people in Xihai City. I will immediately contact the surrounding provincial capitals and ask them to transfer some people from each province to excavate!"

"That's easy to handle. I will go to the scene personally and look forward to seeing the ancient city from 2,000 years ago soon!"

After the meeting, everyone arranged for personnel to go to the scene to excavate.

For a time, thousands of archaeological experts across the country packed their luggage and headed to Xihai City.

Fang Yang and the others moved forward all the way, and the walls of the cave bulged and recessed for a while.

Walking on the ground, you can see black skeletons on the ground from time to time.

But the further they went, they found that the color of the skeletons was not so deep.

And it was like walking on a slope.

It is clear that the ground position here is much higher than where they came in before, which may be because this side is still under development.

The further they went, the higher the ground, and they also saw many chiseling tools such as hammers.

This also confirmed Fang Yang's previous guess that this place is indeed a gold mine, and these dead people are all miners.

I don't know how long they walked. When they came to a place with relatively high terrain, everyone was shocked under the illumination of the light!

In front of them was not volcanic lava or terrifying skeletons, but a pool of clear water, bottomless in the dim environment, as if a terrifying giant beast was hidden under the water!

But just at this moment, Fang Yang's system panel suddenly popped up.

After a few seconds, his expression changed drastically, and his eyeballs widened.

A terrible feeling of palpitation surged into his heart, and he immediately shouted at everyone in the cave: "Quick! Get out of here quickly!"

Everyone was a little confused by his sudden surprise, and they didn't react for a while.

【Popularity】 +1+1+1+1....

——【Holy crap, there is really groundwater in the volcano, what's wrong with Fang Yang? Did he see anything unclean? In my impression, this guy rarely has this kind of panic phenomenon, it's a bit unbelievable.】

——【Could it be that the volcano is about to erupt? Is it such a coincidence! It stands to reason that it's impossible! This water is pitch black, and you can't see anything!】

——【He seemed to have this expression when natural gas leaked yesterday. I have a premonition that something terrible is going to happen.】

——【So nervous, seeing this dark deep water, I have a natural fear, always feeling that a terrible thing will suddenly emerge from inside and swallow me in one bite.】

Fang Yang's breathing was a little rapid, looking at the unmoved crowd, and shouted again: "Don't you want to live, run quickly!"

After speaking, he turned around and ran without caring about them.

Now is not the time to explain, and there is no time to explain. If he doesn't run, he is really afraid that he will end up here today.

Team Wang and Chen Feng followed behind without saying a word.

The people behind also came back to their senses at this time. Although they didn't understand why they were running, they all knew Fang Yang's power, so they didn't hesitate too much and followed them to run wildly towards the exit.

155. The volcano really erupted, life and death escape! (Seeking subscription)

A dozen people ran wildly towards the exit. There were messy stones everywhere on the ground, and it was very easy to fall when running.

When they came, they felt that this road was very long, but when they went back, they found it was much shorter than they thought.

In less than two minutes, they saw the light at the exit.

Fang Yang drilled out without any hesitation, and the cameraman followed closely.

He originally planned to run down the mountain as soon as he came out, but saw that there were still a large number of tourists and archaeological personnel on the mountain.

He could only bite the bullet and shout at the crowd: "Go quickly! The volcano is about to erupt! Everyone leave here!"

However, when this sentence was shouted, everyone was still standing there, with a look of confusion.

Before going up the mountain, they all knew that this volcano was monitored 24 hours a day, and even if it was about to erupt, there would be an alarm reminder.

But there was nothing at the moment, and suddenly saying that the volcano was about to erupt, their brains couldn't turn around for a while, and they thought Fang Yang was playing a prank on them.

Of course, there were also some who were afraid of death and ran wildly down the mountain without hesitation.

Fang Yang could only continue to shout at them, driving the crowd down the mountain. Although he is not a saint, he couldn't bear to watch so many people die in front of him.

Team Wang and others who followed also heard Fang Yang's words, and only felt their scalp tingle.

Although there was a trace of doubt in their hearts, they finally chose to believe Fang Yang.

Chen Feng immediately took all the archaeological team members down the mountain, and at the same time called to notify Director Xu at the foot of the mountain.

"Hello! Director, hurry up and take everyone away! The volcano is about to erupt!"

"Huh? You're not kidding, I didn't hear the alarm, can these hundreds of people be evacuated just by saying so!"

"I can only tell you that this is what Fang Yang said, I don't know the specifics, but..."

"Okay, you don't have to say it, I will evacuate immediately, you hurry down too!"

Director Xu didn't even think about it when he heard what Fang Yang said, he immediately hung up the phone, picked up the big loudspeaker and shouted at the archaeological staff: "Everyone evacuate here immediately, immediately, immediately!"

Everyone was still immersed in the joy of archaeology and was a little confused when they heard this, and looked up unconsciously.

"Director, why? We are working well here!"

"Don't worry about it for now, the volcano may erupt, escape is important, don't ask, don't think, leave now."

"Then what about these cultural relics? Just leave them here?"
