Chapter 475 Five Good Students
It's the weather is clear and refreshing.
The Fengliangtai site in Zhushan City, Yuzhou Province is located in a hilly area on the western foot of Luoshi Mountain. After archaeological discoveries in the early 1980s, it was perfectly protected. The surrounding vegetation is lush, and the boundary between intermittent artificial walls and trees and hills is divided into protection areas. There are special personnel stationed for a long time to patrol and protect to prevent theft.
There are several ordinary villages around, with vast farmlands, and children often play and farmers farm. There are smoke from cooking stoves in the village and the chickens and dogs are heard.
The team of Beijing University of China's field archaeology internship was located in Shoutai Village, less than 200 meters away from the site. It rented more than ten houses in the village committee compound. The local township government also specially sponsored the provision of beds, bedding, tables and chairs and other furniture and daily necessities. The conditions were simple but sincere.
From most of the old houses and buildings in the village and the potholes and dirt pavement streets that have not been hardened, it can be seen that the economic level of the village is very poor.
As the saying goes, poor mountains and bad waters lead to troubled people...
The suspicious and always cautious fat man first came to Shoutai Village, and this was the first sentence that came to his mind.
But he didn't tell others that he would never leave his mobile phone, watch, and wallet.
The simplicity of the resident conditions is a situation that archaeologists must adapt to and get used to.
This is actually nothing.
The archaeological team also purchased camping equipment such as tents and selected locations in the Fengliangtai ruins. Professionals were instructed by students how to build these simple tents, including large, small, and sleeping bags...
Every night, team members are arranged, and volunteers are also left behind tents in the wild.
Before coming, the fat man thought he had high-level experience in archaeological excavation of the Western Han Dynasty tombs in Anhui and high-level qualifications to participate in international archaeological academic seminars, so he was still a little proud and disdainful. After all, the company in Beijing is in the process of equity restructuring and financing, and so many things are involved in money and equity issues. It would be a bit like a cannon hitting a flies when he came to participate in this small field archaeological internship.
But if he didn't come, his credits would also cause all kinds of criticism. Out of consideration of his reputation and Teacher Yang Jingbin, he reluctantly couldn't "reduce himself" and came to this remote place.
It was not until the field archaeology internship began that he gradually realized that the trip was worth it...
First of all, he learned some survival and common sense of life in the wild - although he was confident that he could stay in the wild anytime and anywhere for a few days and could not starve to death or freeze, and he could be more comfortable, so why should he suffer?
Secondly, archaeological excavations are not as simple as he imagined, not just digging graves!
The excavation of the site involves a lot of professional knowledge and the technical content is quite high.
His rich experience is by no means what he did when he was in the archaeological excavation of the tombs of the Western Han Dynasty in Anhui and Han Wei in Xiliang attended the archaeological seminar. He followed a group of top domestic and foreign experts and listened to others' high-level analysis and inferences.
Archaeology is more about basic knowledge and technical experience.
Because any archaeology starts with basic excavation and surveying, without a lot of prerequisite work, where can the later excavation be successful?!
The main purpose of excavation and archaeological work in the site is of course not to dig graves and hunt for treasures and sell money...but to explore and discover the real life and production issues of human beings at that time from every bit of the site, such as how people planted crops, built houses, and made equipment at that time.
Such archaeological discoveries will refer to historical books and classics to obtain more accurate historical civilization.
The undergraduate student of the Department of Archaeology in Class 1998 fully experienced the entire process from cloth, excavation, sorting, drawing, and writing reports for the first time.
The work of field archaeology internship is boring, looking for hope in despair and finding hope with expectations. In fact, most archaeologists are doing this kind of work in the early stage of archaeology in the field.
Ordinary, silent, yet extraordinary, noble...
It is hard for non-professionals to imagine how hard and boring this kind of work is - every day, he takes a small hand shovel and stands by the side of the exploration, hoping to find the house address, wall address, tomb from this place, even a small pit or stove... But it is very likely that after half a day of work, he found that it was just a blank, that is, there was no cultural relics, only natural accumulation.
Even in this kind of disappointment, you must take a hand shovel, and according to the archaeological rules and the stratigraphy principles learned, excavate a exploratory site from late to early. During the continuous scraping of surfaces and thickness of several centimeters, you will find subtle differences in soil quality and soil color, so as to determine the boundaries, and then continue to sprinkle water and scrape the surfaces continuously. Maybe in the end, it will be empty, and maybe some kind of ruin will be found.
Combining flat profile, long-distance observation!
Keep the eight-character mantras in mind, observe the direction of the ruins, and observe the subtle changes in soil colors in different weather environments and humidity...
When you look at the soil texture and color, you have to pinch it by hand and judge it by the feel of the hand.
When a site is discovered, you need to mark it, draw a floor plan of the site, take photos and leave video materials.
Next, the most important part of archaeology: cleaning up the remains.
The same caution requires strict compliance with archaeological rules and principles, and clean up bit by bit. The remains that have been discovered cannot be destroyed, and it is also necessary to be careful to destroy another remains hidden in the soil layer. Every time a part is completed, a plan and section are to be observed and drawn.
So, the process is very long.
During this period, unearthed objects and soil samples must be collected according to the soil strata, and all this is completed before the cleaning of the ash pit has been completed.
Moreover, various special conditions will occur in this process, such as pits, pits, overlapping, etc., which will lead to the excavation area being too complex and the excavation is extremely difficult, which will make people often feel blind and broken...
As the field archaeology internship went by day by day, the fat man had already thrown away the little conceit and complacent feeling in his heart before coming.
He is a good scholar and has always recognized that "there is no more skills" and this kind of opportunity is indeed rare, just like spending money to go to college. If he wasted his time in college, he would be too sorry for his tuition and time. Besides, if he didn't perform better, why should he let Teacher Yang Jingbin openly and be partial to him in the future and have good things to look at him?
With this mentality, the fat man quickly became a star in the field archaeology internship team.
With the ability to practice the mysterious method, the six consciousnesses are far more sensitive than ordinary people, and with the careful and meticulous analysis and inference ability of the mysterious method to cultivate the mysterious method, he ranked first in the exploration and exploration process!
The most surprising thing is that this guy has made almost no minor mistakes during the excavation process!
His plan was meticulous and meticulous, and his movements were extremely accurate when he was exploring and cleaning.
His drawing standards and analysis reports were written concisely without losing details, as if they had a high professional level. This was thanks to the archaeological excavation of the tombs of Western Han Dynasty in the Western Anhui and the international seminar on archaeology, he followed the experts with a stern face, listened to the teachings, and stole the reports written by experts...
Professor Yang Jingbin, who is in charge of leading the team, has been so happy these days!
After all, there are several teachers and experts in the archaeological team, as well as their respective graduate students and international students!
At that time, many people muttered privately that Yang Jingbin used his power for personal gain and took a fat man without real materials to participate in the archaeological excavation of the Han tombs in Western Anhui and the international seminar on archaeology.
What about now?
It is true that facts are better than words, and strength is better than quibbling!
With professional knowledge and ability to conduct on-site archaeological homework, the fat man is definitely stronger than those senior brothers and sisters.
When it comes to character...
That's even more unsaid - the fat man would take the initiative to stay at the archaeological site every day, sleep in a tent, and look at the construction site.
Although there are more than a fat man on the construction site at night, these archaeological students and experts will not be superstitious and afraid of the vain things of ghosts and monsters, but they are ancient ruins and wildernesses. At night, they will inevitably exude a gloomy atmosphere. No matter how brave they are, no one is willing to stay in this ghost place.
Therefore, the fat man sleeps on the construction site every day, which gives more people the opportunity to return to the base to rest.
In the middle of the night that day, drizzle began to fall in the sky.
The fat man sitting cross-legged in a single tent came back to his senses from his ethereal state, looked at the misty night outside, and analyzed the ratio of the yin and yang and five elements in nature, and then judged that this small autumn rain would last for at least twenty-four hours.
"Qing'er, why don't you come back when it rains?" Wen Shuo said softly.
call out……
A green light flashed in the vast night and rainy curtain, and penetrated into the jade pendant.
Since arriving at this archaeological site, the reason why Fatty has been extremely attentive and demanded to sleep on the construction site every day and leave the opportunity to rest comfortably for others is to facilitate meditation and practice, and also to allow Xiaoqing to enjoy the "beautiful" Yin and Yang and Five Elements Environment in a unique place like ancient sites.
Since the last time I discovered that Xiaoqing had raw ingredient and nourished her physical body, the fat man allowed Xiaoqing to eat a little ingredient every day, he would also pay attention to checking Xiaoqing's physical condition to prevent any accidents.
Fortunately, no bad phenomenon has happened so far.
But Wen Shuo still felt that the soul is the essence of Xuanshi's cultivation energy, and humans are masculine and vibrant. For Xiaoqing, if eaten for a long time, there is a high possibility of rejection.
In ancient ruins, among the Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, the Yin attribute ratio is relatively high, and it is central and peaceful, so it is best for Xiaoqing to play and live.
Draw yin and yang and five elements during play and mediate their own balance.
Wen Shuo could see that the effect was very obvious.
