A comprehensive overview of tombs: starting with the Yellow Weasel's Tomb

This clearly indicates that there is a water source in the vicinity.

This reassured Bai Jing.

In fact, Bai Jing was also afraid that they would finally arrive at the destination only to find that there was no water left, which would be interesting.

But everyone was too busy running to care about anything else.

However, Bai Jing's driving skills were ultimately superior, and he was the first to arrive at the ancient city ruins.

Before the camel had even come to a complete stop, Bai Jing leaped off the camel and was the first to rush into the ruins.

As soon as Bai Jing entered the room, he immediately saw the ancient well in the middle of the room.

With a mix of excitement and trepidation, Bai Jing peered down into the well, then a look of relief spread across his face.

Suddenly, Bai Jing heard some noise coming from inside the room, so he looked in that direction.

Only then did he realize that he had rushed into the room in such a hurry that he hadn't paid attention to his surroundings.

But the moment Bai Jing saw clearly what was making the noise, his heart was instantly overwhelmed with joy.

What an incredible plot!

Bai Jing was surprised to see a small yellow sheep, about half-grown, at the corner of the entrance. Startled by Bai Jing's sudden intrusion, it was about to run away.

How could Bai Jing let such an opportunity slip by? He immediately pounced on the half-grown yellow sheep like a tiger pouncing on its prey.

Bai Jing was so fast that the yellow sheep hadn't even started moving before Bai Jing pounced on it and knocked it to the ground.

Immediately after, Bai Jing delivered a chop to Huang Yang's neck.

After Bai Jing finished doing all this, Hu Bayi and Fatty arrived.

When they came in, they saw Bai Jing lying on the ground with a yellow sheep under him.

Upon seeing this, they were momentarily stunned, but knowing that this was not the time to focus on such things, they quickly looked towards the well.

When they saw the water in the well, they couldn't help but laugh.

At this moment, outside the ruins, Anliman looked at the ruins before him, and he was actually somewhat hesitant.

After all, it had been more than a decade since his last visit here. This time, he found that the environment had changed a lot, and the ruins were quite different from what he remembered. So, he was a little uneasy at this moment.

What should we do if there's no water here?

At this moment, the fat man seemed to have become quite playful after the water shortage crisis was resolved.

He pretended to be flustered and ran outside.

Bai Jing and Hu Bayi were speechless upon seeing this.

However, upon seeing the gazelle in front of them, both of them couldn't help but laugh.

Bai Jing assessed the situation and realized that although the gazelle didn't look very big, it still weighed over ten kilograms. Even after removing the fur, internal organs, and bones, it would yield at least seven or eight kilograms of meat.

Dinner is sorted out tonight.

Chapter 155 Small talk

Those outside, seeing the fat man running out in a panic, assumed there was no water inside and felt a chill in their hearts.

But then the fat man burst into laughter, and everyone saw Bai Jing walk out carrying a yellow sheep.

Upon seeing the two emerge, the others quickly asked, "Professor Bai/Xiao Bai, Xiao Hu/Brother Hu, how are things? Is there any water?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jing laughed and said, "There's water, lots of water!"

Upon hearing Bai Jing's words, the others immediately cheered.

There couldn't be better news.

Seeing everyone's excited yet somewhat listless expressions, Bai Jing smiled and said, "Alright, stop cheering for now. Let's go get the water and solve our immediate problem."

Upon hearing Bai Jing's words, everyone immediately sprang into action.

Those who set up the scaffolds did so, and those who carried buckets carried buckets.

As the first bucket of water was brought up, Shirley Yang threw a water purification tablet into it. Once the tablet dissolved, the water was almost ready to drink.

Finally, the water shortage that had lasted for several days was completely resolved.

After drinking water, Anliman handled the gazelles, with Professor Chen, Professor Hao, and Ye Yixin assisting.

Everyone else was fetching water or setting up tents.

Of course, the camels also need water.

For so many days, people haven't had any water to drink, let alone camels.

Now that we finally have water, we certainly can't treat these camels unfairly.

After a flurry of activity, the twenty-odd buckets were almost full, and the stoves and pots were all set up.

The pot is currently simmering mutton sliced ​​from the gazelle and dehydrated vegetables treasured by Shirley Yang.

As the water in the pot boiled, the rich aroma of meat broth immediately filled the surroundings.

On the other side, Anliman was also roasting a yellow sheep over a bonfire.

However, Bai Jing was in no mood to care about these things at the moment. For some reason, Bai Pi had been sleeping motionless in Bai Jing's clothes for some time now, and he couldn't wake him up no matter how he called him.

If Bai Jing hadn't sensed the movement on Bai Pi's body, he would have thought something had happened to Bai Pi.

However, Bai Jing didn't know what was wrong with Bai Pi, so he could only worry helplessly.

At this moment, Ye Yixin came over to call Bai Jing for dinner, saying that the food was almost ready and that Bai Jing should come and wait for the meal. Only then did Bai Jing realize what was happening.

When Bai Jing saw that there were even vegetables in the mutton soup, he couldn't help but tease Shirley Yang, saying, "Miss Yang, you really hid this well. It's been so many days and you're only bringing it out now."

Hearing Bai Jing's teasing, Shirley Yang said unconcernedly, "It's precisely during these difficult times that its value is truly revealed."

Hearing this, Ye Yixin chimed in, "That's right, Sister Yang. It's wonderful that we can have fresh mutton soup in such a desolate place, and there are even vegetables in it."

Upon hearing this, the fat man also complained, "If you ask me, the Northeast is still the best. The wild delicacies in the forests there are plentiful and delicious. Look at this place, it's just sand and sand. You finally manage to hunt a gazelle, and after a bite, the wind blows away..."

My mouth is full of sand.

If you ask me, back when the three of us were in Inner Mongolia, there was a saying that circulated, like, "You can beat a roe deer with a stick, scoop up fish with a ladle, and a pheasant flies right into your cooking pot."

Upon hearing Fatty's complaint, Hu Bayi laughed and scolded, "We should be grateful that we have something to eat now. Who would have thought that just half a day ago we were in a state of life and death uncertainty? Now we can drink mutton soup with vegetables right away. You should be content."

Upon hearing the fat man's description, Sadi Peng, who had never been to Northeast China and knew nothing about its produce, immediately asked, "Brother Wang, what do you mean by 'beating a roe deer with a stick'? Do you mean beating a roe deer with a stick?"

Hearing Sadi Peng's question, Fatty Wang laughed and said, "Little Sadi, I didn't expect you to be so eager to learn. This means that even if you just take a stick into the woods, you can catch a roe deer with a simple swing. If you go to the river, you can scoop up fish with a ladle. This means that our Northeast is very rich in resources."

Professor Hao, who was listening to their conversation, had also been in Northeast China with Professor Chen before, but it wasn't a pleasant memory for him.

Therefore, upon hearing the fat man's repeated praise of the Northeast, he couldn't help but say, "The Northeast has its merits, but the Western Regions also have their merits. The culture of the Western Regions is an important treasure of human civilization."

As a result, the fat man was immediately displeased upon hearing Professor Hao's words.

Upon hearing this, the fat man was displeased and immediately retorted, "I don't like hearing you say that. How can the Northeast be uncultured? You think there's only forest there? There are treasures underground too. Let's not talk about far away, the three of us recently..."

Seeing that the fat man was about to let something slip, Hu Bayi quickly coughed a few times and then said to Shirley Yang, "Miss Yang, when will this soup be ready? I'm getting a bit thirsty eating just flatbread."

Shirley Yang seemed to have noticed something and looked at Bai Jing and the others with great interest.

Their gazes were particularly fixed on Hu Bayi and Fatty.

At that moment, upon hearing Hu Bayi's words, Shirley Yang glanced at Hu Bayi with interest, then looked at the pot and said, "We'll have to wait a while; the meat is still a bit raw."

Hu Bayi didn't want to continue the topic, but Sadi Peng, Chu Jian, and Ye Yixin, three archaeology students, became interested.

Immediately, Sadi Peng asked, "Brother Wang, what happened to the three of you recently? Please continue."

At this moment, Professor Chen seemed to remember something and looked at Bai Jing, saying, "Bai, I heard from Xiao Li that you talked to him about some military base in the Greater Khingan Mountains last October?"

Upon hearing this, both Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang couldn't help but look at Bai Jing.

Bai Jing, however, seemed not to notice Hu Bayi and Fatty's expressions and laughed, "Yes, teacher, at the end of September and the beginning of October last year, I was on vacation, and at that time, Lao Hu, Fatty, and I thought about going back to the village where we used to be educated youth to take a look."

We heard about the Kwantung Army military base from the old folks in the village, and since we were just looking for something fun, we decided to go and see if we could find it. We actually did find it, along with a Jin Dynasty general's tomb.

Upon hearing Bai Jing's words, Professor Chen nodded and said, "I was wondering why Xiao Li was in charge of the excavation work of the Liao Empress Dowager's tomb at Niuxin Mountain in Inner Mongolia. Why is he suddenly telling me this?"

Chapter 156 There is a large tomb here

Then, Bai Jing gave a general account of what happened, omitting, of course, details about taking Guo Hama's golden mask and the Yin Spirit to give gifts to the group.

Bai Jing and his companions' experience left the others dazzled and incredibly envious.

Although they are all archaeologists, they actually spend most of their time studying historical documents and such, and not everyone has the opportunity to enter tombs to conduct archaeological work.

After hearing Bai Jing's words, Shirley Yang hesitated.

At this moment, she couldn't help but wonder if she had wronged Bai Jing and the others.

What Shirley Yang didn't know was that her intuition was very accurate, and she hadn't misjudged Bai Jing and the others.

Seemingly not seeing what she wanted to see, Shirley Yang looked at the soup in the pot and said, "The delicious mutton and vegetable soup is almost ready. It smells so good."

Coincidentally, the whole roasted lamb was almost done roasting at that moment.

Although there aren't many seasonings, just a little salt sprinkled on dry-roasted lamb is very fragrant.
