When the ambulance staff saw the child in his arms, they immediately rushed up and gently took her away.

Placing her on the hospital bed in the ambulance, all the medical staff performed their duties and began emergency rescue.

One of the nurses came up and asked: "Who is the child's family?"

Everyone shook their heads, and Captain Wang next to them immediately explained: "There is no family; the child was dug out of the soil. Hurry up and perform emergency rescue; the police will coordinate with you later!"

The moment the nurse heard she was dug out of the soil, she was stunned.

Looking at the small dirt pit and the paper box on the ground, then looking at Fang Yang and the police car next to them, all these things told her.

This was real!

"Okay! I understand!"

Immediately after, the ambulance doors were tightly closed, and the vehicle turned around and left.

Fang Yang watched the departing ambulance, his eyes a bit dim. He didn't know if the child could survive, and he was somewhat worried.

Captain Wang comforted him: "Don't overthink it. She survived a great disaster and will have good fortune. Since the child could be dug out by you, I believe she will definitely survive!"

"Oh, by the way! We left in a hurry yesterday and forgot to tell you. After you left, the village chief sent over two hundred eggs, saying they wanted to give them to you to eat. Bureau Chief Chen didn't know what to do, so he brought them back. They happened to be brought over today, so please sign for them!"

Fang Yang was stunned!

"What? Eggs? What use do I have for eggs! I don't even have a place to cook."

"That's not my concern; I've already brought them over. Besides, this is the villagers' heartfelt wish. You drove away the village bully and saved people in their village, so it's only right that they thank you!"

Thinking of the village, Fang Yang suddenly remembered the nuclear reactor underground.

"By the way, Brother Wang, that place shouldn't be habitable now, right? What about the people in the village?"

Captain Wang smiled upon hearing this: "You don't need to worry about that. They are very happy now. Thanks to you, a nuclear power plant is going to be built there, and it has become a key protected area. The village definitely can't be lived in, so the government is treating it as relocation!"

"Every household has been allocated housing and money. Of course, out of respect for you, the Mayor even specially funded and provided land to set up a chicken farm for their village, so that everyone has work to do!"

"So I said it's only right that you take these eggs!"

Fang Yang couldn't help but smile after hearing this.

If it was as Captain Wang said, he was indeed worthy of these eggs.

"But the problem is, it's useless for me to keep them. How about you guys split them, Brother Wang? Consider it a small token of my appreciation for troubling you every day!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Captain Wang laughed out loud.

"You kid, you finally found your conscience! You also know how hard it is for us to follow you every day! But we won't take the eggs."

Just as the two sides were at a stalemate.

Old Cheng suddenly said: "Fang Yang, I told you before, we have a tourist feature here! Sand-baked eggs. How about I help you bake some?"

Fang Yang's eyes suddenly lit up: "That's good! I've never eaten sand-baked eggs before. Just right, bake them and I'll treat everyone to eggs!"

"Alright, I'll take out the sand tray!"

He saw him lift a huge circular tray from under the sightseeing car, filled with sand.

The tray was divided into many small compartments, each covered with a piece of glass.

The cameraman asked suspiciously: "Didn't you say sand-baked eggs?"

Old Cheng explained with a smile: "It's not the hottest season yet. If we bake them in the open sand, it would take several hours, and I'm afraid you can't wait that long. Baking them in here takes at most half an hour!"

Everyone watched curiously as he placed the eggs one by one into the sand tray and covered them with glass.

After busying himself for about ten minutes, he was already soaked through.

The cameraman looked at the egg platter and clicked his tongue in wonder: "First time seeing sand-baked eggs. Is this just ordinary sand?"

Old Cheng replied with a smile: "It's mixed with 30% iron! Alright, we can eat the baked eggs in at most half an hour!"

"I can't take it anymore, I'm dying of heat, hurry up and set up the umbrella!"

The cameraman finally realized that he had also been sweating profusely for a long time.

This time, with the help of the police, the umbrella was set up in a moment.

But even so, it was terrifyingly hot under the umbrella, and the wind blowing in was hot air.

After Captain Wang put away the paper box, he didn't leave but waited here.

On one hand, he was afraid Fang Yang would dig up something else, and on the other hand, he wanted to let Fang Yang know once there were results from the surveillance investigation.

【Popularity】+1+1+1+1....

——【I wouldn't go to a place like this even if you paid me. Looking at how hot they are, I'm really worried about heatstroke. What were they thinking building a tourist attraction in a place like this! I'd avoid it if I could; would anyone really go to a place like this to suffer? Just to feel how hot it is and then bake an egg?】

——【As long as there's a feature, people will go! Just this heat alone will attract many people to play, and the scenery here is indeed quite great. Once it's built, I'll definitely go and play. It's just that I'm afraid I won't be able to last long before I have to run!】

——【That village is hilarious. Not only did they solve a potential crisis, but they also got benefits because of this. The main thing is that the government helped them build the chicken farm they originally planned to build. This is a government with a conscience! I'm a bit envious of the people in Xihe City. Next time, I'll have to scout a good place and wait for Fang Yang to come and dig; maybe I'll get rich along with him!】

——【Even I, an angler, wouldn't dare go to this place. I can handle fishing under a sun umbrella at 38 degrees in the summer, but if you make me endure 40-plus degrees in this place, it's not a matter of heatstroke, it's life-threatening! I suggest the scenic spot build a shady area so tourists don't all run away from the heat.】

After about half an hour, Fang Yang had dug a five-square-meter pit over a meter deep in front of him.

At this rate, if he dug another five square meters, he could get off work early today.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little smug. He could finally get through the day safely.

Just then, Captain Wang's phone rang.

It turned out that the police station had found the old lady they mentioned and had already intercepted her!

The old lady had relatively low psychological resilience, and under the police's questioning, she confessed the whole story after a while.

She was the child's grandmother. According to her description, a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, were born in the family a while ago!

The girl had many illnesses as soon as she was born and stopped breathing after being brought out of the hospital. She thought the child was dead, so she found a place to bury her.

Even Fang Yang frowned when he heard this explanation.

He didn't know how the child was doing.

Now that the person had been caught, the truth would be found out sooner or later.

He couldn't worry about that much and continued digging!

However, just when he thought he could get through the day safely, the bucket suddenly dug into something hard.

It was neither a stone nor an iron tool, because it didn't make a huge sound.

But it gave him the feeling that it was very hard. The bucket clearly felt resistance, which was completely different from the paper box earlier.

Looking at the pit over a meter deep in front of him, Fang Yang was helpless.

The people under the umbrella next to him were fanning themselves non-stop.

The cameraman asked suspiciously: "Brother? Did you dig up something?"

Fang Yang's eye twitched, and he ignored him.

"Brother? Why aren't you talking? Don't worry, I was mentally prepared; I guessed it wouldn't be easy to go back today!"

Others were also looking at the mud pit in front of them with confusion, waiting for the answer to be revealed.

Fang Yang took a deep breath and cleared the surrounding soil.

Soon, pieces of wrinkled fabric could be seen in the sand.

The color was blackish, with a bit of green!

Everyone was puzzled—what the heck was this!

168. Dug up a Qing Dynasty mummy! (Sorry, something happened at home, short on words)

As Fang Yang continued to dig deeper, more and more fabric appeared before everyone's eyes, looking like thick cotton-padded clothes.

Fang Yang frowned. He clearly felt he had dug into something hard just now.

But what was on top was cotton-padded clothes, completely different from what he had imagined.

The main thing was that these cotton-padded clothes looked like they were styled to be worn on a body.

A bad feeling faintly emerged.

The few people behind were also watching intently, especially Captain Wang, whose years of professional training made him think of something immediately.

"Fang Yang! Could this be a corpse?"

The others were startled!

"A corpse!"

Old Cheng's voice was trembling. He never expected that the tiny spot he chose today would have so many things!

Fang Yang nodded: "A bit like it!"

After saying that, he continued to dig carefully from the surroundings.

However, he was also a bit puzzled in his heart—if there was a corpse in such a hot place, it would have rotted long ago!

And the style of these clothes looked like a cotton-padded coat worn in winter no matter how you looked at it.
