Chapter 799
On the first day, the three generations of Xunbaomen were all present at the scene. On the second day, only Li Moshou was at the scene, watching ten large excavators working day and night, and the excavated earth was pulled by earth trucks to another huge empty space in the scenic area. On the ground, so that it can be transported back to landfill in the future.

On the third day, the fourth day, and until the fifth day, Li Mo's heart began to surge. An excavator was about to dig up the heaven-sacrificing stone set up by the government in the early Tang Dynasty.

He has been monitoring the progress, and the entire wetland has been dug to a depth of about 12 meters.

"Little Mo, the situation is not good. How deep is the nearby Luo River? This land has been dug to a depth of 12 meters and nothing has been found, which is a bit abnormal."

Liu Chuanqing looked a little worried.

"Don't say a few words, Xiaomo knows what he does."

With the teacher around, it is normal for Comrade Lao Liu to be deflated.

"Master, don't worry, we will find out soon." Li Mo was very calm. He kept staring at one of the excavators. After about half an hour, the excavator made a huge dig, as if digging Something hard has arrived.

The master operator stopped the machine immediately, jumped down to take a closer look, then picked up the walkie-talkie beside him and shouted: "Professor Li, there is a big stone here."

"Got it, I'll go down and have a look."

Li Mo put on special clothes, and with the help of a crane, he fell to the bottom of the huge pit, and stood on the heaven-sacrificing stone in the early Tang Dynasty.With an iron rod in his hand, he poked around a few times, and then sprinkled lime powder around the Heaven Sacrifice Stone for a week.

"Master, dig a few shovels along the lime powder circle."

"Okay, Professor Li, stay a little farther away, I'm afraid I might accidentally hurt you."

Li Mo immediately moved away a few meters away, the excavator started to work, and the crane hoisted up all the excavated soil and carried it away.

About four or ten minutes later, Li Mo signaled the master to pause. The soil around the Heaven Sacrifice Stone had been hollowed out, but because the surface was still covered with soil, it was not clear what kind of stone it was.

Li Mo took a look, and saw that the Heaven Sacrifice Stone was about three meters high and five meters long.He started to clean up the dirt on the surface with a shovel. After about ten minutes, he became more careful, touching the surface of the stone with his hands from time to time.When he cleared a large area, he picked up the walkie-talkie and said: "Master, Master, we have found the real stone offering sacrifices to heaven that was erected here in the early years of the Tang Dynasty. There are engraved words on the stone, which clearly record what happened that year. The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven."

The master and apprentice who were staying above were immediately excited when they heard the words from the walkie-talkie.If it is really the heaven-sacrificing stone from the early years of the Tang Dynasty, no matter whether the Kyushu tripod is found this time, at least there has been an explanation to the outside world.

"Dad, you stay up there, I'll go down and clean up with Xiaomo."

"Okay, be careful."

After Li Mo notified his master, he took out his mobile phone and called Professor Zhu Changping.

"Teacher, are you busy?"

"Just rested for a while, what's the progress on your side?"

"Teacher, I have dug up the real heaven-sacrificing stone set up here in the early years of the Tang Dynasty. It looks very large. I have cleared a small part of the surface, and the words recording the heaven-sacrificing ceremony are clearly engraved on it."

"What?" Zhu Changping spit out a sip of water, stood up quickly and said, "Little Mo, are you sure it is the stone offering sacrifices to heaven in the early Tang Dynasty, and there are written records on it?"

"Teacher, I'm sure, I've only cleared a small area so far, so I want all the experts to come here together."

"Li Mo, don't you have a Tang Honglu well carved stone in your hand? It is one of the top national treasures. If you find another stone offering sacrifices to heaven in the early Tang Dynasty today, its historical value and cultural relic value are comparable to those of the Tang Dynasty. The carved stone in Honglu Well is not low. I and other experts rushed over immediately, and we will clean up the heaven-sacrificing stone together."

Zhu Changping hung up the phone, and the other four archaeologists had gathered around.Without waiting for them to ask, Zhu Changping quickly said: "We will rush over to meet Professor Li now. He found the Heaven Worship Stone set up in the early Tang Dynasty in the Wetland Park. unimaginably high."

"Then what are you waiting for, go, go."

The four experts immediately patted the dust off their bodies, and walked outside with Zhu Changping, followed by five assistant professors.

Many of the people doing auxiliary work in the shed were staff from the Los Angeles City Cultural Protection Bureau. They looked at each other in blank dismay, and some people had already secretly sent text messages outside.

All excavators stopped working, and those masters surrounded them curiously.Originally, they also wanted to help clean up the dirt on the surface, but Li Mo did not agree. The surrounding surface of this giant stone with a height of more than three meters and a length of more than five meters was first polished and smooth, and then carved word by word.If the master damages the surface without knowing how serious it is, the loss will be great.

The Wetland Park is not far from Liangshe Village, and it takes more than 20 minutes to drive there. Zhu Changping and ten people didn't bother to change clothes, and went down to the bottom of the pit directly with the help of a crane.

"Teacher, take a look here first."

Zhu Changping came to Li Mo's side. Although there was still soil on the surface of the sacrifice stone, the engraved characters could already be recognized.

"The autumn of the seventh year of Zhenguan."

Zhu Changping looked at the one pointed out by Li Mo, and then looked at the other texts. It was indeed a part of the astronomical offering. As long as the entire piece of the astronomical stone was cleaned up, the complete article on the astronomical offering could be obtained.

"The rare stone is even more valuable than the Tang Honglu well carving stone."

"Oh, everyone, don't be emotional, first clean up all the offering stones, and then find a way to get them out."

"Yes, let's get to work."

12 people formed a circle and carefully cleaned the soil with wood chips and brushes. About half an hour later, two official vehicles stopped at the entrance of the Wetland Park. Four people from the Cultural Protection Bureau and three representatives from the Los Angeles City officials came .

They waited at the door for seven or eight minutes before they saw a news gathering vehicle arrive. It was the official media of Los Angeles, and they were going to come here to follow the filming.

"I didn't expect it, it was so unexpected. There is actually a real 500-year-old celestial stone buried underneath. Even if the Kyushu tripod is not found this time, this celestial stone alone is enough to cause a national sensation." .”

"Professor Li is really a strange person, and he has to be convinced in some respects."

"What's the point of saying so much? We have to turn passive into active now. Is it possible that we really want to hand over the Heaven Sacrifice Stone? Even if we agree, the people of Los Angeles will not agree."

"However, we have reached a verbal agreement with Professor Li before. If we use public opinion, do you think he will turn his face and deny people? I had lunch with Huang Zhongzheng at noon yesterday. A big move, with an investment of up to [-] billion, and he hurried back to Kyoto today to prepare for the preliminary work. If we make a small move, how can he not see it, and if he turns his face, I guess the superior will still stand on his side."

The four representatives of the government were talking in a hurry. It seems that this trip is not a good thing, and if one is not good, it will be blamed.

"Thinking so much about what to do, we just watched and said nothing. Let's go, meet Professor Li first."

Li Mo was carefully cleaning the surface of the stone, when he heard Chen Xiaojun's voice from the walkie-talkie, telling him that a lot of officials had come, as well as the news gathering team, and they also wanted to enter the pit to shoot on the spot.

"Let them in."
