Chapter 419

—【Based on my understanding of Fang Yang, the things he digs up are generally getting more and more exaggerated. Even the bronze bell was just an appetizer. It's hard to imagine what's under this!】

—【Listening to the sound just now, it feels like a big stone, it should be a relatively large object. Something more fierce than the Jingyun Bronze Bell, besides a national treasure, I can't think of anything else.】

—【Exciting, are we going to witness the birth of a national treasure today?】

Just after Fang Yang dug up something, everyone put down their work and surrounded him.

In their view, being able to see Fang Yang dig up cultural relics with their own eyes is more important than anything else.

The things already dug up can be studied at any time.

But watching Fang Yang dig for treasure, you won't see it many times in a lifetime.

Especially being able to witness the birth of top-tier cultural relics with your own eyes is definitely something they can brag about for a lifetime.

When the mayor walked up to Fang Yang and saw that young and handsome face.

He couldn't help but sigh.

"So young, yet able to reach such a height, it's simply unimaginable."

But Fang Yang didn't pay attention, because he couldn't hear at all.

He was concentrating on the dirt pit in front of him, thinking about how to dig it out.

251. Chencang Stone Drums, a national treasure!

After trying a few times in a row.

Fang Yang found that the stone below was relatively large, but not particularly large.

It just gave people a feeling of being very solid.

And the body shape was also a bit like a circle.

After digging around it.

You could see an earthen mound with a diameter of more than a foot in the middle.

Director Lin understood and immediately called the archaeological team to go up and clean the dirt.

The thick layer of dirt on the earthen mound fell off bit by bit.

However, this time, everyone was disappointed.

After the dirt on the earthen mound was cleaned away, the true face inside was revealed.

It was actually just a stone.

Black and shiny, the shape was a bit like a drum.

It looked like, except for being slightly larger, there was no big difference from an ordinary stone.

Everyone was a bit disappointed.

They thought they were going to dig up some cultural relic this time.

Director Lin also looked at the mayor awkwardly: "Accident, accident!"

The mayor didn't care either and waved his hand.

However, just at this moment.

The cameraman let out a cry of surprise: "Eh~~ Brother, look, is there writing on that stone?"

As soon as this was said, everyone stared over.

Looking closely.

I saw that in some places on the stone, the dirt was clearly sunken.

It looked like carved characters, embedded with mud.

The archaeological team hurriedly brought over a water pipe to carefully clean the dirt on it.

Sure enough!

"Director! There really is writing!"

"Let me see... damn, it really is writing. What era is this writing from?"

Several archaeological experts surrounded the stone drum and kept studying it, wanting to understand the blurry characters on it.

However, they couldn't recognize them.

It was only when Director Lin came out in person that he recognized them.

"This, this, this... is this Great Seal Script??"

"Writing from the pre-Qin period! Is this a cultural relic from more than 2,000 years ago?"

As soon as this was said, everyone was shocked!

Even Fang Yang curiously leaned over to take a look.

The system panel popped up in an instant.

【Chencang Stone Drums】

【There are ten stone drums in total, two feet high, more than a foot in diameter, shaped like drums, thin at the top and thick at the bottom, with a slightly rounded top, weighing about one ton. Each stone drum is engraved with Stone Drum Script (Great Seal Script). Because the inscriptions mostly talk about hunting and fishing, they are also called "Hunting Inscriptions".】

【The Stone Drum Script records a piece of history before the unification of Qin Shi Huang that was unknown to later generations. It is the earliest stone-carved poetry in China and is the ancestor of seal script. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, one character has been worth ten thousand gold; it is a miracle in the history of Chinese cultural relics.】

【Reason for loss: During the War of Resistance, due to the war, the stone drums of the Palace Museum were transported to other places for safekeeping, and they were accidentally lost here on the way due to the flames of war...】

After reading the system introduction, Fang Yang was stunned.

This was actually a cultural relic from the Palace Museum.

A stone from 2,000 years ago, engraved with some characters.

It looked very ordinary and not very rare.

But this stone symbolizes a witness to China's 2,000-plus years.

Thinking of this, Fang Yang suddenly thought of something.

He hurriedly said: "Director Lin, haven't you heard of the Chencang Stone Drums?"

As soon as this was said, Director Lin was startled.

It seemed he also associated something.

The whole person was trembling with excitement.

He pointed to the stone on the ground incredulously and said: "You... you don't mean... you want to tell me this is the Chencang Stone Drum!"

"This is the national treasure of our country! It was lost long ago, I didn't expect... if this is really it, then we..."

Although Director Lin's words were incoherent.

But everyone understood.

Even the mayor understood its importance, and his breathing was a bit rapid.

He looked at Fang Yang and asked: "Is what you said true?"

Fang Yang nodded solemnly: "It should be. What I want to say is, there were ten stone drums in total during the War of Resistance, and all of them were lost. Is it possible... there is more than just this one under here?"

Boom~~

If Fang Yang had just told everyone that this stone was the Chencang Stone Drum.

It was a bomb to them.

Then this sentence was a direct nuclear explosion.

If it was really as he said, digging up ten Chencang Stone Drums at once.

Its significance far exceeds the Lanting Preface before!!

The only things that can be compared to it are the Nine Tripods and the Imperial Seal!

Such a cultural relic was actually discovered in their city.

To them, this is like a pie falling from the sky.

Even if they won 5 million in the lottery, they wouldn't want to trade it.

So, at this moment, everyone realized the importance.

Immediately, everyone put down their work and came over with shovels and spades to dig for dirt.

Now, they definitely couldn't let Fang Yang use the excavator to dig.

If such an important cultural relic was broken, they would be the sinners of China.

As for the authenticity of the stone drums?

Fang Yang had already spoken, so it was nine out of ten true.

Plus Director Lin had already confirmed that this was pre-Qin writing.

Then there would basically be no mistake.
