Who Isn’t A Cultivator?

Chapter 9 Weekly Notes

It’s still raining in Bai City.

The home is empty.

Father is a professor of history at a school in Yuan Prefecture. He is a little bit arrogant. He says he is not busy or not, and he is a hobby, specializing in losing money. Mother’s name is Wei Yan. She is a lawyer. Her work is much busier than her father’s. It’s not uncommon to see no one.

Parents are not seen at home for a long time.

“Dinner…”

Chen Shu opened the refrigerator and took a look. There were cabbage, eggs, milk, and some bottles and jars in it.

I was too lazy to cook, so I just took out my phone and ordered takeout.

Delivery in half an hour.

A bowl of steaming rice noodles, fragrant lard clear soup, but also a lot of bright red millet spicy, delicious and spicy show a beautiful fusion, plus a few slices of stewed rake The soft sliced pork is garnished with multiple stimulations to the taste buds.

The merchant also sent a bauble——

A little pig called a pig with a little bigger than a thumb, with a small whistle under it, when you pinch the little pig, it chirps and chirps. called.

“Hahahahaha…”

Today’s good mood begins here.

After dinner, Cultivation, analysis.

I am very busy.

……

The eighth day of May.

The rain stopped in Bai City.

Chen Shu sat in the yard of Ning Qing’s house, gave her a delicious takeout, and told her that this thing can make noise, which is fun.

Ning Qing took it and squeezed it twice, and she put it back into her pocket expressionlessly.

Chen Shu ran to see her flowers.

It has been raining for a long time. Roses are most likely to get black spots in this season. Fortunately, Ning Qing has been taking medicine to prevent them, so that these flowers and plants are still relatively healthy.

Chen Shu’s favorite flower named ‘Morning and Dusk’ has bloomed.

This is a newly cultivated variety in the past few years. Lotus Throne has a gradient color. After blooming, it is like the color of the sky when the sky is not bright in the morning and the sky is dark in the evening.

Unfortunately, it’s not a cut flower variety.

Chen Shu turned around and asked Ning Qing while smelling the flowers: “What are you doing in the summer vacation?”

“Go to work, how about you?”

“I want to participate The opening of the Saint Ancestor cube and the inventory of cultural relics.” Chen Shu slammed his mouth, “Professor Chen finally has a role, it’s really not easy.”

“It’s exactly what you want.”

p>

“hehe…”

“Why are you so interested in Saint Ancestor?” Ning Qing tilted his head at Chen Shu.

“I want you to take care of it.”

“…”

Ning Qing turned his head and stopped talking.

At this time, Chen Shu received a call from Professor Chen. As soon as he got connected, Professor Chen said, “We will start excavating cubes this afternoon. Would you like to join in the fun? After cleaning up the surrounding soil and rocks We should wait until tomorrow.”

“Yes.”

“Where are you?”

“Ning Qing’s house.”

“I’ll pick you up.”

“Okay.”

Chen Shu stood up and said to Ning Qing, “I’m leaving.”

Ning Qing lightly nodded.

……

Jinghai is the second largest freshwater lake in Yuan Prefecture. Circle 140 kilometers. The urban area of Bai City is located at the foot of the mountain west of Jinghai, opposite to Youlong District. From the city to the foot of Meiren Mountain, you can only take the Huanhu Road. There is no expressway, and it takes about an hour by car.

Professor Chen drives very well and is determined not to speed.

An hour later, they reached their destination.

Standing at the foot of the mountain at close range, I realize how terrifying the power of nature is.

The earth and rocks on half of the mountain collapsed, and the road around the lake was buried for at least one kilometer. The earth and rocks rushed into the lake.

The cube is inlaid on the upper half of the mountain, exposing a corner, and the dark gray and nearly black material reveals an extremely simple and heavy feeling. It just happens that it has just crossed the long history of 5,000 years, and meeting people of this era has a magical sense of space-time travel.

Staring at it as if time had been compressed.

Chen Shu saw that the place had long been blocked, with fully armed soldiers standing guard, and armored vehicles with spiritual power shields. Anyone who passed must be identified.

Large excavation equipment is ready.

The archaeological team has long since arrived.

There are many more leaders.

A lot of people anyway.

However, Chen Shu basically did not know these people, but did know two historians:

Professor Shi and Professor Liu.

Chen Shu has read their books and watched their programs. The status of these two in the history circle is probably similar to that of Professor Chen, and their main dynasties are different.

Apart from this and two other people are very eye-catching——

A woman wearing a daoist robe with ordinary appearance, no taste of divide poise and sagelike features, daoist robe is also The past is different.

The other is a male, wearing a yellow monk’s robe, with a ferocious appearance, his face is covered with scars left by a knife or a sword, and a cloud of burn marks, and his eyebrows are thick. When people are like they want to eat people, it turns out to be people of Buddhism.

Taoism and Buddhism were both created by Saint Ancestor Disciple in those days. They are evergreen sects in the history of Cultivation, and they are still powerful and widely spread among believers.

Of course, it is still subject to government control.

These two should have been recruited to maintain security.

At least a high-rank cultivator, right?

The Saint Ancestor Cube is of great importance, as it relates to the origin of the Chinese civilization and contains many cultural relics and treasures. Although Yi Country’s excavation of the Saint Ancestor cube has never been an accident, the safety measures that should be in place must still be done.

“Hello Professor Shi, I have read your Dasheng lecture notes.” Chen Shu finished speaking and looked towards another person, “Professor Liu, I liked you very much when I was a child watching the history forum. You speak the language and history of each dynasty very wonderfully, really, you are the historical enlightenment teacher of many people.”

“Hello.” Professor Shi is very reserved.

“Hello Little Chen, thank you…” Professor Liu said, “Professor Chen said that you have a deeper understanding of the history of the Xia Dynasty than him. It’s really Heroes come out from the Youth.”

p>

“Where, I’m just interested in Saint Ancestor. You know, basically every boy is interested in Saint Ancestor when he is a child.” Chen Shu said modestly, “I still need something I don’t understand. Elders please give more advice.”

“Do you plan to develop into the historical world in the future?” Professor Shi asked Chen Shu.

“I don’t have this idea at all, it’s just an interest.” Chen Shu replied honestly, “I’m going to apply for spell theory here.”

“Oh…”

Professor Shi was stunned.

I heard Professor Chen say that his son knew Saint Ancestor better than him and wanted to bring him over to be an assistant, but they thought it was Professor Chen who paved the way for his son’s future. It is also normal for the children of well-known historical scholars to continue to study history.

It may not seem that way now.

Professor Shi then asked: “Is the big exam over, have the scores come out?”

“Not yet?”

“Are there goals? “

“Let’s see if I can go to Yujing University.”

“Oh… yes, yes.”

Professor Shi said two in a row, because He is a professor in the History Department of Yujing University.

Professor Liu was silent, he was next door.

Someone came to ask the three professors, and after getting the answer, the machine on the mountain immediately started, and the sound of bang bang bang came from a distance, and I was afraid that it could be heard across the lake.

Chen Shu looked up, very focused.

Some people always refer to tomb robbery and archaeological mention on equal terms, and the two are obviously completely different.

The purpose of robbing the tomb is for selfish desires. It is extremely barbaric and actively invades the tomb to obtain valuable items. They can cause great damage to the tomb and the items inside, and many treasures are completely destroyed because of their unprofessional. The few left behind are often sold abroad, or kept in private collections in the homes of some collectors.

Archaeology is usually passive.

Most of the time, the archaeological team will carry out rescue excavations only when the tombs and relics have already appeared due to natural reasons, or there are traces of tombs being robbed.

Of course, there is also the wisdom to take the initiative to discover, and then it was basically sprayed.

And what about the results of archaeological excavations?

Some can fill the gaps in history, and some can correct cultural gaps, these are very important.

Without history and culture, there would be no identity, and there would be no great country and civilization.

As for some substantive items, a few will be preserved, and most will be put into museums. Everyone in the country can appreciate the treasures left by these ancestors. In fact, many museums do not charge or charge. extremely low.

The claim of ‘legal tomb robbery’ is nonsense.

Even in this world, in this era, the value of items unearthed in ancient tombs or ruins is mostly at the ‘cultural’ level, with little practical value. There is no such thing as saying that ancient Cultivation methods, spells, techniques, etc. are more advanced than today.

The Saint Ancestor cube is special.

One is its existence:

The Saint Ancestor cube always takes the initiative to appear in the world. Before it appears in the world, no one knows where it is, and it will not be actively discovered. Nor will it be discovered by accident. It could even be found in a mine that has been battered. When it appears out of thin air, all the mines are blocked, which is amazing.

The second is its value:

The things in the Saint Ancestor cube are really strategic in addition to cultural significance.

“clang bang bang…”

The outline of the Saint Ancestor cube gradually emerges.

The gray-black cold Star Stone is harder than steel, and it is still a strategic material. You can dig it boldly without worrying about damage.

This is also where the Saint Ancestor cube is atmospheric.

To replace the ordinary ruins, you must use a small shovel, a small spoon, a small brush, and little by little to dig.

“hua!”

The water droplets hua hua rushed down, and the patterns on the square stone wall gradually showed.

Simple pine branch pattern.

The pattern of each cube is different, the one in Yujing is the auspicious cloud map.

Dig further down, and the cube door will appear.

Now the side facing the lake is the West Gate. There are a total of East, South, West, North up and down Six Paths Gate, all of which can be entered.

Besides, the Saint Ancestor cube has no other defense and counterattack facilities except for such a heaven-defying ‘hidden mechanism’, only the gate needs to be cracked for a while.

Saint Ancestor had no intention of killing the thieves.

Be kind.

The sound of bang bang bang gradually stopped, and then a large amount of water washed the surface of the cube clean, revealing the outline of a huge arch.

It was getting dark.

The two ends of the blocked road around the lake gradually gathered more and more lights. It was the citizens who heard the news and came to watch, and some people sailed from the other side of the lake to see it.

The military went up.

It will take a while to crack the gate, then the air isolation, to get in to find out the safety, to transport the equipment in, maybe until midnight or tomorrow morning.

Chen Shu will not be able to follow Professor Chen into the cube until tomorrow at least.

I just came here today to see the excitement and gain insight.

It’s twelve o’clock in the evening.

Chen Shu has already returned home.

and Cultivation is complete.

In addition to being tired, he couldn’t sleep a little, and all kinds of messy thoughts one after another came up, making him confused.

Chen Shu carefully looked at the crystal in his hand, and raised it again after a while, facing the lamp in the room. The light penetrated through the crystal, and there was a mist of pink and purple in it.

He once read a book called “Zhou He Ji Shi”.

Zhou He was a member of the Early-Stage of the Xia Dynasty. He was the first historian in this world’s Chinese history. He usually stayed in the palace and was responsible for writing history books. But in addition to the official history, he also recorded his usual work records, occasional feelings, and things he saw and heard that were not enough to be recorded in the history books, into a book.

This is the “Zhouhe Chronicle”.

The protection measures of this book are not as good as the official history books. Later, Daomen recorded the history of the dynasties and dynasties, and the book was neglected to preserve, resulting in many defects. However, in modern times, there are Daomen bigwigs who have uniformly repaired these books, and the content should be the same as that of the past.

This book is often used as a reference for early summer history.

Chen Shu has read a few words in the book:

The moon is clear in the deep palace, and the light and shadow of candles in the corridor.

The white head Saint Sovereign is here, sitting and playing with crystals.

It’s not a poem either, it’s just a simple record of a little thing about Saint Ancestor.

There were a lot of things that day, Zhou He worked overtime in the palace, worked overtime until very late to leave the palace, and inadvertently saw Saint Ancestor, Aiya, the moonlight in the deep palace was cold, very quiet, and the long corridor With lanterns and candles swaying, Saint Sovereign Your Majesty is very old, but he did not rest in the palace, but sat on the palace porch, sitting idle, playing with crystals in his hands.

Are you in a trance?

What is Saint Sovereign Your Majesty thinking?

Zhou He thought it was very interesting, so when he got home, he quickly wrote it down.

People all over the world believe that this poem describes the desolateness of the deep palace, the lonely scene of the elderly Saint Sovereign sitting alone under the moon, and the original Saint Sovereign, who ruled the world and created China, will be like ordinary old people at night. The vulnerable side that needs company, maybe the more aloof and remote in front of people, the lonelier behind them?

Chen Shu looked towards the crystal in his hand again.
