"Hello, Professor Xiang. It's me, Little Sun!"
Sun Yuan suppressed the uneasiness in his heart. "I'm discharged..."
Professor Xiang glanced at him before turning back to his ancient books. He seemed to be indifferent to everything else and did not care how Sun Yuan was discharged.
This was illogical!
After all, Sun Yuan was his student and this was not the case when they contacted each other!
The uneasiness in Sun Yuan's heart grew stronger but there was nothing he could do.
Hua Peng coughed and reminded him to continue.
Sun Yuan could only bite the bullet and take a step forward. He could smell a strong sour smell. Previously, Professor Xiang was very particular about hygiene.
"Professor, I would like to ask a question. It's about... Kunlun!"
He continued.
"Kunlun? Kunlun! "
Unexpectedly, Professor Xiang suddenly swept all the books on the table onto the floor and slapped his head. "Right, right, it's Kunlun! Kunlun Green Jade... Celestial Bone! This makes sense. Isn't this connected? It's the Queen Mother of the West, the Queen Mother of the West! "
"Queen Mother of the West?" Hua Peng felt that the name was familiar but Sun Yuan knew it very well.
This was a goddess that the ancient people worshipped. The hundreds of meters tall bronze statue unearthed from the Nine Star Pile was believed to be the Queen Mother of the West.
Because other than this one, no other goddess in the ancient times had such influence and honor.
But what puzzled the world was that the face of the huge bronze statue was completely blank!
Not only that, many religious books only described the greatness of the Queen Mother of the West but never described her appearance.
"The Queen Mother of the West lives on Kunlun Mountain... The Queen Mother of the West is the ancestor of the Celestials..."
Professor Xiang had a crazed expression. "The mystery of the prehistoric civilization is about to be unraveled by me... hehe... haha..."
As he spoke, he foamed at the mouth, lost consciousness, and collapsed.
"F * ck!"
"Call the hospital."
"Save him!"
Sun Yuan and Hua Peng looked at each other and hurriedly acted.
...
Woo woo woo woo!
The piercing sound of an ambulance could be heard and the few of them were sent to the hospital.
Looking at Professor Xiang who was sent to the emergency room, Sun Yuan and Hua Peng looked at each other helplessly. "Professor, how did this happen?"
"He has always been healthy. Could it be a heart attack? Or cerebral thrombosis? "
"It doesn't matter anymore. Now that we know that it's related to the Western Mother of the Kunlun Mountains, do you still want to continue investigating?" Hua Peng asked.
"Of course, it's not just me. It seems like the professor is also involved." Sun Yuan took out his phone and went online to search for information about the Queen Mother of the West.
He had read many of them and knew more about them than the netizens.
Only a few of them, whose authenticity was unknown, made his eyes light up.
[The Queen Mother of the West is suspected to be the primitive worship of the ancient matriarchal society. After all, a matriarchal society would definitely worship a motherly deity … However, when it transitioned to a patriarchal society or even a feudal era, the worship of the Queen Mother of the West gradually disappeared … There is evidence that the worship of the Queen Mother of the West flourished during the Yan Han era, and it is said that it originated from Emperor Shenwu! This emperor once met the Queen Mother of the West in a dream and was bestowed with a precious treasure called the 'Kunlun Mirror'. However, the descendants couldn't find it no matter how hard they searched. They all thought that it was buried with the emperor.]
[Previous post, you idiot! You even believe in myths! There is no Queen Mother of the West. The so-called Queen Mother of the West is just a general name for a series of ancient matriarchal deities. I'm a university history student. Why would I lie to you?]
[This Queen Mother of the West … is said to be the deity of Kunlun. The most detailed description of her is probably 'Journey to the West'.]
[What 'Journey to the West'? Hasn't it been proven to be a fake book? According to the official historical records, the earliest dynasty was the Yan Han era. You're telling me that there was a Zhou Emperor before Immortal Qin? Is there something wrong with your brain?]
[Look … Don't you know about it?]
[Idiot!]
[You're the idiot!]
…
Ignoring the boring war of words, Sun Yuan's eyes lit up when he saw the information in some of the posts. This was information that even he didn't know.
"'Journey to the West'? I'll look for it in the library another day … "
Sun Yuan felt that he had learned something.
At this moment, another call came in. "Is this Sun Yuan? I'm Old Huang from the archaeological camp! "
"Master Huang, what's up?"
Sun Yuan's expression changed.
Although the bamboo slip was destroyed, the scientific investigation still had to continue. In fact, the work in the camp was still ongoing.
"After you were hospitalized that day, Professor Xiang ran back to school without saying a word. He said that he wanted to look up some information …"
Old Huang was the chief butler of the camp. He was now full of complaints. "After that, Hu Gong and Jin Gong were in charge of the excavation work … But these two days, they became very strange. They hid in their tents and didn't come out. They even guarded the celestial bone and refused to give it to anyone who came … This is a mistake. The cultural relics belong to the country, how can they treat it as their own? I wanted to ask Professor Xie to talk to them, but isn't he hospitalized? Sun Yuan, are you here on behalf of the professor? "
"I … I'll come right now."
Sun Yuan didn't want to cause trouble, but he was afraid that there was something else in the ancient tomb that could harm people, so he hurriedly agreed.
Hua Peng was left behind to look after Professor Xiang. He went out to hail a cab and went to the excavation camp.
Old Huang was a middle-aged balding man with a shiny face. He came up to welcome him. "Sun Yuan, I don't mean to say, but Old Hu and Old Jin are behaving very strangely. Why don't we … call the doctor over?"
"Let me take a look first …"
Sun Yuan came in front of a tent and shouted. "Hu Gong? Jin Gong? "
As the top talents of the camp, the two of them were treated very well. They enjoyed a huge tent together.
After shouting for a while, there was no response.
Old Huang said with a wry smile, "It's been like this for the past two days. They don't respond even when I call them. Even their meals are sent in through the door … If this goes on, I'm really afraid something will happen."
However, at this moment, Professor Xiang, who had the highest status in the camp, was nowhere to be seen. Below him were Hu Gong and Jin Gong.
Old Huang had no choice but to get Sun Yuan to take a look. It was just a last-ditch effort.
Unless he was forced into a desperate situation, he definitely didn't want to report to his superiors.
After all, it was almost instinctive for experienced workers like him to cover up when something happened.
"This guy tricked me here. Don't tell me he's here to share the responsibility?"
Sun Yuan suddenly thought of a possibility and his heart turned cold.
At this moment, Old Huang had already opened the tent and walked in. "Old Hu, Old Jin, what's wrong with you? Ah!!! "
There was a scream.
Sun Yuan was shocked. He hurriedly opened the tent and ran in. He saw …
