Chapter 24: Overthrowing the Well-The Northern School Tomb Raider’s Notes

In fact, before coming here we got one thing wrong, that piece of Xixia lapis lazuli stone carving originally thought to be dug out from the ground, but did not expect to be used as a manhole cover, by mistake, so that Uncle Kulu picked up.

That’s what led us to Yinchuan.

I estimate that the head and I think the same, we come this time if we can dig to the Xixia tomb that absolutely have to earn, because the Xixia cultural relics are too few tombs are too few, even the Yinchuan Museum of the Xixia collection, but also mainly to the broken stone carvings of broken stone bricks are mainly, boutique has is there, but not much.

I asked the chief what to do next, let’s continue down the shaft to find something or ……

Turning his head to the dry well, he mused, “Look around, there might be something worth something besides pieces of rotten iron.”

I nodded my head and said yes, thieves do not go empty, not to find out something valuable I always feel loss.

Putting his head in a nod, he said, “So, Bud or you go down?”

“No, no, no,” Bean Sprout Boy desperately shook his head and said, “Just now I was just bragging, I don’t want to do it anymore, the dead man’s bones that I just trampled on were 80 if not a hundred, and Yun Feng has a lot of guts, so I think it’s better for Yun Feng to go down there.”

“What do you think, Yunfeng?” Beanpole asked me.

I’ll call you a wimpy bastard. I’ll go down, I’ll go down.

Sending me down with a rope, Beanpole shouted to follow and threw down a spinning shovel.

The well, though full of dead men’s bones, did not stink, but only had an acidic, moldy smell.

A couple of random shovel strokes turned up a couple of skeletons, and after digging for the better part of an hour, I did make a discovery.

Bean Sprout Boy was so impatient and careless that he exposed this.

I picked this up and wiped it on my sleeve.

This is a jade artifact, adult half palm size, jade flesh green and yellow, carving although simple only a few strokes, but the carved look out, is a jade bear.

Jade bear from the Western Xia period.

This thing material is not Hetian white jade, but also with the good local green jade, warm and moist in the hand, there is a slight oil, counting a thing to see, if you meet the buyers who like the high ancient local jade, easy to sell a few thousand small ten thousand is not a big problem.

I blew the dust of sand that had fallen from the jade bear, put it in my own pocket, and patted it twice.

Seven hundred years ago, if all these people were killed by the Mongols, then there should still be something left behind, seven hundred years ago they ate meat, seven hundred years later I licked the bowl can always, put it is really too wasteful.

As expected, after carefully rummaging around, I found another chopstick-shaped with hairpin craft, I initially decided that this thing should be part of the headdress of the Western Xia women, this thing is not as delicate as the Song Dynasty women’s head with a step rocker, but at least with a little bit of work, it is estimated that it can be sold for a thousand dollars.

I got addicted to digging and wiped my sweat, I’m sure there’s some big stuff down here. There’s guaranteed to be one or two Xixia soldier’s belt medals with Xixia writing or something.

I stood at the bottom of the well and discussed with the head, and finally decided to fully clean up the bottom of the well, I don’t know how deep this soil is, I can’t say that the big goods and good goods are hidden under the bottom of the well. In this way, even if we ultimately can not find the black water city, there are these, in addition to that piece of Alaska blood onyx original stone, this trip to Yinchuan bottom is there.
