Chapter 56

Fang Yang looked at Zhao Hua's shocked expression and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"I just took a look, only this one is a fossil, the others are just ordinary mud-stone slabs used for building houses."

"Oh! Okay!" Zhao Hua was a bit disappointed, but then exclaimed: "Used for building houses? These mud-stone slabs are all so regular, you don't want to say that here..."

"That's right! If I'm not mistaken, this place should have been an old house!" Fang Yang clapped his hands and stood up.

Everyone was shocked!

The second uncle was the first to walk up and say suspiciously: "Impossible, right? When we migrated here, I can be sure there were no traces of anyone having lived here."

Others also held a skeptical attitude.

Although it was said that there was a bed, a kettle, and a plow here, it was clear that no one had been seen living here for hundreds of years.

Even if someone lived here before they came, there should be relics of human habitation.

This wasn't some underground ancient city buried for many years.

You have to know that kettles, iron plows, and these things weren't too distant things.

This meant that even if someone lived here, the era wouldn't be too long ago.

This didn't make sense at all!

Everyone looked at Fang Yang, waiting for his answer.

Hundreds of phones were recording videos of him, and his popularity online was also skyrocketing.

Fang Yang picked up a mud-stone slab on the ground and smiled lightly: "I'll analyze it for you and you'll know. First, I said before that for things like iron plows, even if there was a flood, it couldn't have been washed over. Plus, there happened to be a kettle here, and a bed. All these things mean that it's very likely someone lived here."

"Although it's a bit hard to believe, let's assume there was a house here a hundred years ago? Like the mud-stone slab in my hand, each one is relatively flat. Is it a coincidence that so many were piled together? I guess you don't believe it either, right! Then it's very obvious; these were actually used for building house walls."

Yang Feng hurriedly interrupted to ask: "But what about the house? It stands to reason that the house shouldn't disappear in a short time!"

Wu Ming frowned: "Could it have been destroyed by a flood?"

"Impossible. Even if there was a flood, wouldn't the house come out after the water receded? How could it run underground."

"This..."

Fang Yang nodded: "He's right. Even if there was a flood, the house would collapse at most, it wouldn't be buried underground. But have you thought about it? This is the foot of the mountain!"

The cameraman asked blankly: "What do you mean?"

Zhao Hua suddenly realized: "You mean, the house might have been buried by dirt falling from the mountain?"

"Almost, but not entirely correct!" Fang Yang looked at Yang Feng: "Remember when we first came today, I asked you why this place was full of rocks and wood, remember?"

Yang Feng hurriedly nodded: "I remember, I still don't know why."

Fang Yang turned to look at the second uncle again: "Second uncle, you said before that there was a month-long heavy rain here, and there was a flood, right?"

The second uncle also nodded: "I didn't see it with my own eyes, but it was mentioned in the county annals at the time."

"Then that's it!"

Fang Yang cleared his throat: "Let's assume someone lived here before, there were houses and beds, and even people doing farm work. But one day these people left and never came back."

"What was the reason that made them leave? I think most people are unwilling to leave their homes easily unless they have no choice. That almost only leaves one possibility: a natural disaster!"

"But this natural disaster was definitely not a flood, because a flood wouldn't bury a house, but a mudslide!"

As soon as this was said, everyone was stunned.

Zhao Hua thought about it carefully: "A mudslide? It seems this explanation really makes sense!"

Yang Feng didn't understand: "Why?"

Wu Ming suddenly slapped his thigh: "I get it!"

Many people at the scene suddenly realized, but there were still many who were confused.

Among them, Yang Feng was the most anxious: "What's the reason? Say it!"

This time Fang Yang didn't speak, but Zhao Hua took the initiative to explain for him: "Because many years ago, there was a month-long rainstorm, which caused a landslide and a huge mudslide. A large amount of mudslide rolled down from the mountain and completely submerged the house, so today's scene appeared!"

"The soil is full of rocks and wood brought down by the mudslide. Instead of saying the house disappeared, it's better to say the house was buried by the mudslide! So we are standing on the mudslide from that year."

——【Awesome, the case is solved, exciting! This is like watching a police and gangster movie. No one would have thought that this place was actually a house.】

——【I said today definitely wouldn't be that simple, but it's still not exciting enough today!】

——【Damn, how did he become a geologist again? How much does he know?】

——【This IQ is really a pity not to solve crimes. I thought work would stop today, but it looks like we can still dig in a while. Could it be that not believing in bad luck really works?】

——【I was lucky enough to see a mudslide once two years ago. Everywhere it passed, not a blade of grass grew. The houses all collapsed. Mainly because the mudslide was mixed with rocks and a large amount of wood. If a person fell into it, they would be gone in minutes.】

——【Finally solved the puzzle, otherwise I wouldn't be able to sleep at night thinking about this. After half a day, it turns out someone lived here before. After knowing the answer, I suddenly feel it's not that mysterious, and it's boring.】

"Holy crap!" Yang Feng was stunned. He understood completely now.

Fang Yang smiled and spoke again: "Actually, what I want to say is more than that!"

"Ah? There's more?"

The people around gathered their attention and pricked up their ears again.

"Yes! We dug up an iron plow before, which shows that someone farmed here before, so I suspect this is not just a house, but a village, and perhaps many houses are buried underneath!"

Hiss~~

Everyone gasped.

They had lived here for several generations and didn't know that someone had lived here before.

Now someone told them that even a village was buried here.

It's terrifying to think about!

Just as everyone was surprised, Fang Yang said another explosive possibility.

"Besides that, I suspect this village is highly likely to be buried with a large number of fossils!"

Zhao Hua asked excitedly upon hearing this: "Why do you say that?"

Fang Yang pointed to the rock where the dinosaur egg was first discovered and said: "It's very simple. Fossils are things buried deep underground. Being able to dig them up so easily today shows that after many years of special crustal activity, a part of them came to the surface."

"And the coincidence is that the two fossils discovered today are both this kind of mud-stone slab. This kind of stone slab is what they used to build houses. Although I don't know where they got these stone slabs, I can be sure that they are all from the same batch. If all these stones are found, maybe a large number of fossils can be found inside!"

Everyone was stunned!

This was far more shocking than the analysis that there were houses before!

Especially Zhao Hua, his expression was tense.

He immediately took out his phone and dialed the Paleontology Museum's number.

If Fang Yang was right, it would be an explosive discovery.

"Hello! Curator! I may have discovered a fossil group here!"

"Really? You're not joking, right!"

"Currently, two fossils have been found, one of which is a dinosaur egg with very good preservation and an oval shape, and the other is an ordinary fish fossil. I estimate there are more underneath!"

"A dinosaur egg with very high completeness? Good! I got it. Send me the address, and I'll arrange for an excavation team to go there in person immediately!"

And at this time, Chen Feng from the Cultural Relics Bureau got the news from somewhere and called Fang Yang.

"Hello! Who is this?"

"Is this Fang Yang? I'm Chen Feng from the Cultural Relics Bureau. I just heard that you may have discovered a village from a hundred years ago?"

"Uh... yes, it's not certain yet."

"Good, that's enough for me. Can you give me the address? I'll bring people over to survey it immediately."

"Okay!"

After Fang Yang hung up, he sent him the address.

It was almost time for a meal, and the work here could only be paused.

As the host, Yang Feng specifically treated Fang Yang to a meal.

During Fang Yang's lunch, the internet was already in an uproar.

Weibo was full of speculative articles about before.

#Fang Yang dug up an underground ancient village, suspected fossil village#

#Suspected complete and flawless T-Rex fossil egg unearthed, shocking experts at home and abroad#

——【This is too awesome. As long as he makes a move, he'll definitely get big goods. I just want to know, if he digs for a year, will all the secrets on this land be dug out by him?】

——【This egg is preserved too well. I saw in the news last time that a nest of eggs sold for over 60 million, and the quality can't compare to this one. If it's a T-Rex egg, it's even more terrifying!】

——【I feel like the country should focus on protecting Fang Yang. I've always felt that he doesn't look like an earthling, otherwise it can't be explained at all. How can he master so much knowledge at such a young age.】

——【I've never seen a fossil in my life. As soon as he makes a move, fossils pop out of the ground like Chinese cabbage. It's simply absurd.】

——【The most critical thing is that no one says this is a script, because no script dares to act like this. It's too fake. Who dares to dig a landmine directly? Are you tired of living!】 ===== CHAPTER 57 =====
