154. A Gold Mine Thousands Of Years Ago, A Pool Of Clear Water, Frantically Fleeing For My Life (Sub
Just now, Fang Yang learned through the system panel that these people all died in a landslide during the Ming Dynasty.
At the same time, I also understood what the hole was for.
All the weirdness before is also clear to the heart.
Everyone in the geological survey team looked at Fang Yang in doubt, hoping to get an answer from him.
Coincidentally, Team Wang Chen Feng and the director of the scenic spot also got in.
They couldn't help but exclaim when they saw the scene inside.
When seeing the skeletons on the ground, especially the supervisor was so frightened that he had to run back on the spot.
If it weren't for the crowds here, they would probably faint from fright.
Fang Yang collected his thoughts and said slowly: "These people all died here during the Ming Dynasty.
One of them asked curiously: "What are they doing? Why did they come here! Is this an ancient tomb?"
"It shouldn't be. There is not a single funeral object here, and there is no coffin, and it can be seen that Hu Gu's death at that time should be very miserable."
Fang Yang replied indifferently: "They are all miners! As for the cause of death, I believe you can almost see that they died of landslides. Their entrance is at the top, coming in from the position of the crater, so when there is a disaster, they simply run No. Landslides and so many years have passed, the entrance has already been sealed.
"miner?"
Everyone exclaimed.
"Is there a mine here?"
"It should be. The mineral resources in the volcano are very rich, but you shouldn't take such a big risk to mine here!"
"I don't see any mines in this place? Could it be a coal mine? How could there be a coal mine in the volcano.
After a while of discussion, everyone looked at Fang Yang again.
Fang Yang smiled: "If it's just an ordinary mine, it's really not worth going here to mine, it's very dangerous, but if it's a gold mine!"
"Gold Mine!!"
Everyone was stunned now.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like there is a gold mine, there are stones everywhere.
But some people also raised questions: "How do you know this? You can't know that there is a gold mine just by looking at it!"
Fang Yang was suddenly at a loss for words, so he could only make up a random reason: "I read the county annals before, and there are records that this gold mine has existed since the Tang Dynasty. It has gone through the Song, Yuan, and Ming Dynasties. For thousands of years, it was not until a landslide that this place was completely buried."
"If you don't believe me, you can pick up a stone on the ground and test it. You can see the gold content in it and you will know whether I am right or not!"
This is not his nonsense, but the system prompts.
So even if they check the history, the result is the same.
Everyone believed in what Fang Yang said.
But testing is still necessary. Immediately, someone picked up a pile of stones from the ground and drilled them out to analyze the results with instruments.
But right now, it only explains why this hole exists and does not explain why there is black carbon.
It can't be that they burned the fire and cooked here, so it wouldn't turn the water black.
It is also unknown how big the hole is and where it leads.
Fang Yang walked up to the sloping stone wall and touched it: "I don't know if you have heard of the method of burning and blasting?"
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard the words, even Chen Feng hadn't heard of it.
Most people in the geological survey team don't know either.
"I seem to have heard of it, but I forgot the exact time."
It's normal for them not to know, after all, there is a specialization in surgery.
If it is a professional mining, it is possible to answer.
Fang Yang smiled and pointed to the dark charcoal on the ground: "Aren't you curious, how did the ancients mine? We have a lot of high technology in modern times. How did the ancients use such a hard wall to dig mines?"
The supervisor was the first to speak: "I saw on TV that the slaves in the mine were smashed open with a hammer or something, and then moved away!"
Chen Feng shook his head: "It's an open-pit mine, it's different, here is a cave, it's very difficult to smash it with a hammer, and if it's not operated properly, mine accidents are easy to happen.
"You can't blow it up with dynamite, can you?"
"That would be even more unreliable, let alone whether the explosive power at that time could blow up the stone, even if it was blown up, it would easily collapse.
A group of people are discussing with each other sentence by sentence.
But in the end there is no perfect solution.
Fang Yang smiled: "Actually, it's very simple. Burning is to use the principle of heat expansion and contraction. First, use firewood to burn a large stone. After the fire reaches a certain temperature, suddenly pour it out with cold water. Just tap it with a drill bit and it comes off!"
"That's why there are so many charcoals in this cave. They are all left over from burning stones. As for the water and the blackening of the skeletons, it is naturally the influence of charcoal."
【Qi】+1+1+1+1....
——[I'm going, it's so simple? It was so evil before, I thought I entered the ancient tomb of the high priest like a movie mummy, and I might wake up the monster inside. It's just that there is a gold mine here, which is really unimaginable, and Hui brainstormed and thought of going to the volcano to mine. 】
—— [The wisdom of the ancients is much higher than we imagined, just like the stele of the astronomical map before, in that era without industrialization, many things can only be made by manpower. But I'm curious how they smelt this kind of gold ore? It can't be burned directly. 】
[Have you noticed just now that the detonation method requires water. Where does the water come from on this volcano? If water is transported from the bottom of the mountain, it seems that the project is too difficult. Before the suspension, there was a water leak, could it be that this place is the underground water storage port of the volcano?]
[Gold mine, the Ministry of Mineral Resources is about to die of laughter again, but do they dare to use explosives to mine the mine! What if they accidentally blow up the volcano below?
Then cool off. 】
After listening to Fang Yang's explanation, everyone suddenly realized.
Now all the weirdness is explained.
Whether it's caves, bones or charcoal, they can all be linked together and explained clearly.
At the same time, I have to feel the wisdom of the ancients. At that time, they knew to use the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction for mining.
This is not only safer but also much easier.
Although they have never heard of this explosive method, everyone knows the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction. According to Fang Yang's explanation, they can guess that it will be useful even without experiments.
Members of the survey team who had drilled out just before this time came back.
His face was full of surprises: "Good news!! It's really a gold mine! And the data I just tested shows that the gold content of the ore is as high as several hundred grams per ton!!"
la~~
The voice just fell.
Several other members of the geological survey team looked shocked, each one was full of shock and surprise!
Excitedly hugging each other and dancing, I can't wait to have a celebration banquet right away.
Immediately, someone took out his mobile phone and wanted to call Minister Sun of the Ministry of Mineral Resources to report the news of the discovery of gold mines here.
Chen Feng and the others were a little confused. These people became crazy after they knew about the gold mine.
Even if gold mines are discovered, it won't be a nerve, one ton is only a few hundred grams, which doesn't sound like much!
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Fang Yang's mouth, and he quietly looked at the couple celebrating in front of him.
They didn't understand, but Fang Yang did know what the sentence just now meant.
We must know that in the 1970s, the gold content per ton of ore was basically only a few grams, and eight grams could be counted as a bonanza.
But the gold content of this gold mine is as high as several hundred grams, what kind of concept is this!
And look at the size of this hole, no wonder it has been mined for thousands of years.
According to the size of the cave, the gold mines mined in the past thousand years are at least 10,000 taels of gold, including the current market price, which exceeds 100 billion!
With such a scale and such a gold content, it is definitely a rare gold mine.
Chen Feng looked at Fang Yang suspiciously: "How did ancient people smelt gold?"
Not only him, but everyone else is also a little curious.
Fang Yang thought about it for a while: "People in the past had a tool called a water hammer, have you heard of it?"
All except Chen Feng shook their heads.
"The water reel is similar to the wheel in the water on TV, but it is not used to draw water, but is built on the side of a stream with a relatively large drop. The wheel is turned by the flowing water, driving the tooth plate, and the other end of the tooth plate is installed. Stone pestle head, put processed objects in the stone mortar below, tools used in ancient times to process rice and the like!"
"Smelting gold ore is to crush the mined gold ore with a water cone, and then put it into the graphite similar to soybean milk and grind it into ore powder by rotating a stone mill.
"Then put the ore powder into the container and add rice flour to form a ball, process it at high temperature to make ore gold, and put lead in the process of burning to make it slowly melt, and then put it into the lead The lumps are smelted again, and after being blown by the wind, lead oxide is formed, and the rest is high-purity gold.
"Although the methods of the ancients are relatively backward and the equipment is not good, the principle is the same as the modern one!"
After listening to Fang Yang's explanation, everyone basically understood the process.
It is nothing more than making the stone into powder first and then extracting it.
Fang Yang looked into the depths of the cave with the light: "Let's not stand here stupidly, let's go in and have a look, but be careful, don't collapse again, let's explain here like these ancestors.
Everyone nodded and immediately decided to go deep to explore.
At the time when Fang Yang was explaining, the news about the discovery of an ancient city 2,000 years ago under the volcano has spread like crazy.
Especially in the archaeological field, it triggered a super earthquake.
This is not just as simple as discovering ancient ruins, but a period of doomsday history.
During this time, more Han Dynasty cultural relics were continuously unearthed in the woods below the mountain.
Especially some pottery, as long as the carbonized substance on it is removed, it will be exactly the same as the new one.
...ask for flowers...
Even wooden items such as carriages and crops are well preserved.
What's even more exaggerated is that even the food that was eaten back then has been preserved.
Of course, the most amazing thing is how the actions of people at that time were frozen in the face of the doomsday.
It can be seen that such a discovery is not just as simple as archaeological relics, but restores the original appearance of the ancient city when the disaster struck.
Just imagine if once this place was excavated successfully.
Modern people can witness what the ancient city was like during the Han Dynasty.
This is far more real and shocking than what you see on TV.
Dean He has already returned to the capital, and at this time he is having an online meeting with several other bigwigs.
In the meeting room are Director Zhou, Director Chen, and Director Qin of the Huaxia Cultural Relics Bureau.
It can be said that the top leaders in the archaeological world have gathered together and are discussing the development of the ancient city.
"Everyone, I believe you have heard about the ancient city. If someone else, I might still doubt it, but it was discovered by Fang Yang. He understands the authenticity. Now we are going to talk about how to excavate it, relying solely on the West Sea. The city's archaeological power is far from enough!"
"I guess we have to rely on Director Chen to help us with this matter. We don't have a lot of people here, but Director Qin is your job. Why, needless to say, you
It’s a branch of my school, but my National Expo has no benefits at all, and my efforts are not thankful!”
"Old Zhou, what you said is wrong. Contributing to the protection of cultural relics is our job, and it is divided into interests, right? I originally wanted to discuss it with Fang Yang.
It seems that there is no need for Chuan Guo Yuxi to be exhibited in your exhibition for a month!"
0
"Don't, don't, don't! My country's blog will immediately gather 50 top archaeological experts to help with the excavation, that's all right! Where are you old guys!"
"The people in the research institute have long been eager to go to the excavation and research. I have already arranged this matter. Don't worry, there must be no less than 200 people!"
"Don't look at me, I already have thousands of people in Xihai City from the Cultural Relics Bureau. I will immediately contact the surrounding provincial capitals and ask them to send some people from each province to go digging!"
"That's easy to handle. I will go to the scene in person and look forward to seeing the ancient city 2,000 years ago!"
After the meeting, each arranged personnel to go to the site for excavation.
At that time, thousands of archaeological experts from all over the country packed their bags and headed to Xihai City.
The people on Fang Yang's side moved forward all the way, and the walls of the cave were raised and concave for a while.
Walking on the ground, you can see Black skeletons on the ground from time to time.
But the further they went, they found that the color of the skeleton was not so dark.
And it's like walking on a slope.
It is obvious that the ground position here is much higher than the place where it came in before, which may be the reason why this side is still under development.
The further you go, the higher the ground, and you can also see a lot of wall-chiseling tools such as hammers.
This also confirmed Fang Yang's previous guess that this place was indeed a gold mine, and the dead were all miners.
I don't know how long they walked, but when they came to a relatively high place, everyone was shocked under the light!
In front of him is neither lava nor scary skeletons, but a pool of clear water. In the dark environment, the depth is bottomless, as if a terrifying monster is hidden under the water!
But at this moment, Fang Yang's system panel popped up suddenly.
After a few seconds, his expression changed drastically, and his eyes were wide open.
A terrible feeling of palpitation welled up in my heart and immediately shouted to everyone in the cave: "Quick] get out of here!"
Everyone was a little baffled by his sudden surprise, and they didn't react for a while.
【Weather】+1+1+1+1....
[I'm going, there is really groundwater in the volcano, what's wrong with Fang Yang? Did he see something unclean? In my impression, this guy rarely has such surprises.
The phenomenon is a bit unbelievable. 】
【Could it be that the volcano is about to erupt? Is there such a coincidence! Logically speaking, it’s impossible, the water is pitch black, and you can’t see anything!】
[He seemed to have the same expression when the natural gas leaked yesterday, and I had a premonition that something terrible was about to happen. 】
【I'm so nervous. Seeing this kind of dark deep water, I have a natural sense of fear. I always feel that a terrible thing suddenly appeared inside and swallowed me in one gulp. 】
Fang Yang breathed a little short and looked at the unmoved crowd, and immediately shouted again: "Don't you want to live anymore, run!"
After finishing speaking, just ignore them and turn around and run away.
Now is not the time to explain at all, and there is no time to explain, if he doesn't run away, he is really afraid that he will have to explain here today.
Team Wang and Chen Feng ran behind without saying a word.
The Cun behind also came to their senses, although they didn't understand why they ran, but they all knew Fang Yang's power, so they ran towards the exit without too much hesitation. .
