    "Why don't you let the students go home for dinner first?" Look at the time.  It's almost time for school to end.  Seeing that the thing couldn't be dug out for a while, Zhang Qian discussed with Teacher Wang to let the students go back first.

    "Yeah" Teacher Wang also meant this. She shouted at the group of little guys a few times to ask them to disperse.

    These children like to see strange things the most, and they linger and don¡¯t want to go back.  However, due to the pressure from the teacher, I had to run home quickly and prepare to come early after dinner.

    "Do you have your cell phone let me use it and take some photos." Before Zhang Qian left, she specifically asked Liu Junhao for it and then took a few snaps at the blue-brown thing.

    She was going to check it online later. When she saw this thing just now, she was not sure what it was. After all, it was the first time she had seen it.  Teacher Wang only said, "Could it be a fossil?" As a result, the students spread rumors and said that fossils were found in the school.  In front of a large group of students, Zhang Qian was embarrassed to say that she didn't know, so she could only keep her doubts in her mind and default to "fossil".

    When he got home, Liu Junhao was just about to treat his wife to some soup.  Unexpectedly, Zhang Qian threw the lesson plan on the table and hit him directly.

    "Husband, come over quickly and take a look. Why is this picture different from the fossils on the Internet?" Zhang Qian waited for the fossil to be searched directly.  She compared the pictures she found online with the ones she took herself.  Found a big difference.

    Liu Junhao also looked over and read the description from beginning to end. He did not see the same picture. The only similarity was the drilled fossil.  As explained above, boreholes are holes made by certain animals for food, attachment, and hiding. They often appear on petrified shells, wood, and fossils of other organisms.  But other people's holes are more regular, usually in the shape of a tube or a garden hole, which are completely different shapes from this one.

    "Stop studying, eat quickly, and after dinner, find a few people to dig it out and study it carefully" Liu Junhao is quite depressed now. He finally prepared to reveal the results at noon. The soup feels a bit dusty, and his wife's mind is not on that at all.

    "Well you serve me a bowl of rice, and I will continue to investigate. I must find out what this thing is." Zhang Qian is now ready to break the casserole and ask to the end. She will have an explanation when the students ask again in the afternoon.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? but seeing how devoted his wife was to the investigation, Liu Junhao could only carry out the service to the end.

    "Hmmwhat soup is so fragrant?" As soon as she smelled the smell, her attention immediately shifted.

    "Guess" Liu Junhao sold it out.

    "There are bamboo fungus, fungus, vermicelli I don't recognize the rest. It's definitely not fish." After identifying it for almost a minute, Zhang Qian still didn't recognize what kind of meat the milky white thing was.

    "How does the pheasant he caught in the backyard taste like this morning?" He was very pleased to see that his wife finally turned her attention to delicious food.

    ¡°Cathedral, caddis is ready to be eaten This thing tastes really good. We¡¯ll make it at night.¡± After Zhang Qian tasted the bamboo fungus soup, she was full of praise.  Previously, when Liu Junhao planned to raise pheasants, she had expressed opposition, saying that pheasants were protected animals.  I feel guilty eating this.  Unexpectedly, her position would change in just one meal. If it were during the war, she would definitely be a die-hard capitulator.

    Before the meal was finished, tourists were already coming to the door.

    Liu Junhao thought they were coming to buy eels, so he quickly moved out chairs for them to sit in the courtyard.

    "No need to sit down, Liu Junhao, I heard that you dug up fossils on the school playground this morning?" The person who said this was Zheng Jianxue, who rushed to Liujiagou with his wife in the morning.  At noon, I heard from the children in the village that the school had dug up fossils. The couple became interested and planned to go over and take some photos. Wenxia even wanted to collect two pieces later.

    As soon as they went out, they saw other people talking about the matter, so they rushed to Liu Junhao's house to ask what happened.

    "You all know it so soon" Zhang Qian heard the noise and came out with a bowl.

    No need to ask the source of the news, it must have been said by those naughty kids in the village when they returned home.

    Since everyone came to see the fossils, Liu Junhao took them directly to the school playground without any delay.

    ¡°Is this thing a fossil?¡±

    "It doesn't look like a fossil"

    "It doesn't seem to be a stone. I have never seen such a stone"

    When these people saw such a big stone, they all started to argue.  The main reason is that its shape is a bit strange at first glance.  It looks like an unpolished birdcage.  The key is that there are many holes the size of fists, and they are arranged in a certain pattern.  There are some traces of artificial carving, but more of them are natural.

    "It should be regarded as a kind of rockery stone that has not been discovered yet. You can see the traces and the honeycombs on the Taihu stone.""It's very similar to" Zheng Jianxue circled around the thing and then expressed his speculation.

    Taihu stone, also called cave stone, is mainly composed of limestone.  Limestone is easily weathered and eroded by external forces. The soft stone falls off and the harder parts are preserved, thus forming a zigzag and rounded shape.

    "Don't tell me, it's really similar," after he said this, two people agreed.

    "Is Taihu stone this color? Besides, Taihu stone is very rough. This stone is too smooth, just like black jade." Wen Xia retorted.

    "That's right" Someone immediately agreed with her point of view.

    ¡°No one knows what happened, so everyone can only guess around the rocks.

    "Dig first, and then let the villagers take a look when it's dug out." Professor Zhao couldn't explain why for a while, so he buried his head and waved the shovel.

    Liu Junhao saw that the amount of work this time was not small, so he called the village and asked Er Mazi to call a few people to come over and help.  In less than ten minutes, seven or eight hard workers walked into the campus carrying shovels.

    "Uncle Guangxi, have you seen this thing?" When they approached, Liu Junhao quickly gave up his position.

    "What is this? I've never seen it before. It's definitely not a rock on our mountain!" Er Mazi looked at it for a while, and finally shook his head and said he didn't recognize it.

    ? Originally I thought that with a few more people to help, this thing should be excavated quickly.

    The situation is not as everyone thought. After digging for more than half an hour, a large pit with a radius of one foot and almost two meters has been dug around.  But the guy didn't show his true colors.

    Er Mazi dug and dug in his heart, and he always felt that this matter was a bit evil.  He stopped, pulled Liu Junhao aside and whispered: "Xiao Hao, I think we should stop. I feel that this thing is not a good thing. What if something goes wrong?"

    "It's okay, Uncle Guangxi, just a stone." Liu Junhao is an atheist, so naturally he doesn't believe there is anything weird about this thing.

    "I dug a jar" Suddenly Liu Qihua screamed.

    Hearing his shout, the two of them hurried over and saw something like an earthen basin emerging from the soil. What made people feel weird was that half of the jar was filled with fine sand.

    Liu Qihua dug a few more shovels down, and the jar was completely revealed in front of people, with three legs at the bottom.

    "This is the incense burner bowl" Professor Zhao recognized the thing at a glance.  It should have been used by people to kowtow and burn incense in the past, but the material is quite rough and has little collection value.

    "Let's stop, don't let God blame us." Er Mazi was even more convinced of his guess a censer bowl would appear in front of this thing for no reason.  Don¡¯t think too much, it must be used to worship God.

    "Master Guangxi, you kowtow and burn incense every month so devoutly, but you haven't gotten rich yet" Liu Qihua didn't believe this stuff either, and opened his mouth to ridicule.

    Everyone in Liujiagou knows that Ermazi¡¯s family is very religious and religious. It is passed down from ancestors.  It is said that his father originally planned to start renovating the house the next day, but he started dreaming at night.  He dreamed that a phoenix landed on the edge of a weir not far from his home.

    "The phoenix will not fall on the treasureless land". The old man thought it was a dream entrusted to him by his ancestors. As soon as he woke up the next day, he called his two sons to discuss not renovating the old house but building a new one directly. The location was chosen where the phoenix fell.  And since then, incense has been offered to honor ancestors on the first day of every month.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    When the house passed into the hands of the old man, he also maintained the tradition of burning incense on the first day of every month.  It is said that because of this incident, he was even beaten during the Cultural Revolution.  Although he has been burning incense for a lifetime, Er Mazi's father has not made a fortune and has been driving people around for a lifetime.  As a result, when he was about to die, he screamed and saw a large group of golden chickens pecking in his yard.

    "You naughty kid, you will know what it means when you are going to suffer a loss, you will suffer a loss if you don't listen to the old man. Anyway, I won't dig" Er Mazi screamed, saying nothing but moving the shovel.

    At this time, it was almost the afternoon class time. Zhang Qian thought that today's course progress was not completed yet, so she rushed the students into the classroom.  But those children couldn't sit still, and from time to time they secretly turned their heads and looked out the window.

    More and more people gathered on the playground, and no one recognized anyone after seeing the real thing.  However, the speculation is getting more and more outrageous, and some people say it is like a cornucopia.

    A dozen people worked hard for nearly an hour before finally digging to the bottom.

    Liu Junhao stood by the big pit and made a visual inspection. This thing was about four meters high and estimated to weigh over a thousand kilograms.  There is no way to lift a person up when he is standing at the bottom of the pit, so he can only pull with a rope.

    "Xiao Hao, go home and get the well rope. There is no way to resist this thing." Liu Laosan also had this plan.

      When the well rope was brought, several people wrapped around the "fossil" in various directions, and then lifted it out with all their strength at the same time.

    Hey almost everyone feels this way, that is, this thing is too light, and seven or eight people don't use much strength at all.

    They effortlessly moved the "fossil" to the flat ground, and the thing finally showed its true appearance in Lushan: the blue-brown body looked a bit like an exquisite pagoda from a distance, but when they got closer, it felt particularly abrupt, with up and down parts that seemed to have some structure.  Countless horned dragons are circling.  The layers of holes are arranged according to certain rules, which makes people feel extremely mysterious.

    This thing does not look like a plant fossil, nor a volcanic rock, nor even a stone at all.  But no one present could tell what it was.

    "Give way, everyone, give way. Reporter Guo is leading experts to see the fossils." At this time, Liu Guangju's loud shouts came from the crowd.

    This personLiu Junhao couldn't laugh or cry. He was not sure about anything, so he hurriedly called reporters.  But it's better to have experts, at least they can recognize what it is.

    "It's not a fossil, it should be artificially fired." The expert wearing glasses only looked at it for two minutes before coming to a conclusion.

    "What is it that is artificially made? Is it a cultural relic?" Zheng Jianxue said with doubts. He always thought that the experts were "brick experts".

    "Then I don't know. This thing can't be buried underground for no reason. It doesn't seem to be very old. Someone in your village may know about it." The expert shook his head and put away the instrument in his hand.  They study paleontology, not cultural relics experts.

    After he mentioned it, everyone thought that was the case.  Old people have a lot of experience and should be able to recognize this thing.

    So, someone else rode a bicycle to the chicken farm to call Liu Wuye and others.

    "Damn it, Xiaohao, I won't ride in your car anymore. I was so scared that I almost had a heart attack." Liu Junhao rode very fast along the way. Before he could reach the school gate, Lao Niutou hurriedly asked him to stop. He would rather  Go there yourself.

    "I've never seen this thing before." Liu Wuye looked at it twice and shook his head.

    "I've seen it before. Look at the color, it's probably a brick." Old Niutou carefully observed the thing for a while, and finally came to a conclusion.

    "This is a brick?!" When Lao Niutou told the origin of this thing, a group of people were in disbelief: The old man couldn't be talking nonsense, right?

    Looking from top to bottom, and then from left to right, this thing doesn¡¯t look like a brick.  Besides, are there such big bricks?  A cylinder three or four meters high.

    "That's right, it should be. This should be fired in the kind of earthen kiln our village used to have." Old Niutou broke it off twice with his hands, and finally answered with certainty.

    ¡°What are these bricks used for?¡± Reporter Guo asked curiously.

    "I just said a little less. To bake bricks in an earthen kiln, one brick requires a pound of firewood. Generally, bricks in a kiln can be fired in just 24 hours. If the bricks are burned too hard, the bricks will become crispy"

    "No, it's just like Brick's hair." Liu Wuye reacted immediately, no wonder he felt familiar just now.

    "The bricks are boiled into water when they are crispy in the kiln. When the fire goes out, the bricks look like fermented steamed buns. But this time must have taken longer, and the bricks are all sticky together. When I was young, I  I have helped workers in the kiln factory and encountered this situation often."

    The idea of ??burning bricks into water seemed like a fantasy to a large group of people.

    "It's nothing strange. The main component of soil is silicate, and the main component of burning bricks is physical changes. At the sintering temperature, the surface of the soil reaches the melting point of our adobe bricks, and after cooling with water, it becomes higher strength  It has the same hardness as bricks. Of course, it will completely melt and become liquid when it exceeds the melting point" At this time, the paleontology expert followed and explained a few words.

    This explanation makes some sense.

    After working on it for a long time, it was just a pile of failed bricks. You can imagine everyone's disappointment.  Especially the few people who went down to dig the hole just now felt that they had no strength at all.
