Rebirth 13, starting from the big demolition treasure hunt

Chapter 70 The “Fire” Qi of Brick
Anyone who has caught fish knows that when the water is muddy, fish cannot stay in the water for long. They will put their heads out of the water to breathe.

From above, Wu Yuansheng could see that some fish mouths were exposed in the water. People standing at the water's edge could use fishing nets to pick up crucian carp one by one from time to time.

Among the people standing by the water using fishing nets to catch fish, he looked over and found that there was another person he recognized.

This man's current age is almost 61 years old. He is a teacher. His surname is Shi. Everyone calls him Teacher Shi.

During the year and a half of treasure hunting in his previous life, he often saw him going to the garbage dump to pick up things.

Teacher Shi picks up all kinds of ancient items.

Some pottery, porcelain, fragments of ceramics, bone products, animal teeth, glass products, ancient coins, various miscellaneous items, and other metal products.

Complete or incomplete, as long as they were more than a few decades old, he picked them up and donated them to museums.

Donating things must be registered in the museum. He heard that the staff seemed to have a bad look on their face when registering his donated items.

It’s not that Teacher Shi’s donation was bad, it’s that the things he brought there were bad. He donated all kinds of rubbish there, including scrap porcelain pieces, rotten jars, and all kinds of ordinary folk items.

It seems that the museum is being used as a recycling bin. When you donate things, choose them and only donate the better ones.

If everyone donated all the good and bad things they picked up to the museum, just the statistics, not to mention where to put them, would probably be too busy.

Of course, some of the things he donated were better, but that doesn’t mean that everything was bad.

After so many years, it is estimated that the things he donated alone would have to be stored in a house.

At this time, Teacher Shi probably came over to pick up some items for collection. He found that there were fish caught here. He probably borrowed a fishing net from someone else and caught some fish to take home to eat.

"I just borrowed someone else's net to catch a few on the edge, and I have put them in the trunk of the electric car. The mud is too deep, so I just need to catch some to try. Are you coming here to try your luck at detection?" I see you’re carrying a backpack.”

When Wu Yuansheng watched others catching and netting fish, Yan Shun said to him.

He just said casually that Yan Shun would definitely not go down unless something could be found inside.

"Yes! We are preparing for detection, but looking at the current situation, there is no hope. It is too late."

"You should come at night. Most people come at night. I often come here to play for a while at night and go home around ten o'clock."

"How's the situation here? Did everyone detect anything good?"

"It's okay. Every time you detect something, you will gain something. As for who detects something good, people will definitely not say it casually."

"That's what you said."

Xue Houhou was busy catching fish, so he just waved to him from a distance as a greeting.

After chatting with Yan Shun for a while, he stopped looking at the fishing situation here.

Because Teacher Shi has swept the dirt field here several times, there are not even many broken porcelain pieces on the dirt surface.

The soil field is very close to Binjiang Avenue. When he came here before, he saw road construction there from a distance, and an excavator was digging the ground to bury drainage pipes.

Wu Yuansheng saw that there was nothing to find, and he had no intention of detecting it, so he rode a tricycle and left the dirt field.

He planned to go to the place where the pipelines were buried where the road was being built.

In fact, in X city area, there are many places where you can hunt for treasures. Whether it is the demolition area, the dirt yard or the road construction area, you can try your luck.

Arriving near where the excavator was digging, he stopped the tricycle, then walked to the pile of dirt on the side of the road and looked at it.

Maybe this was a remote place in the countryside. Wu Yuansheng didn't see anyone searching for treasure, nor did he find anyone picking up iron.

Because it is close to a river, the soil dug up by the excavator is all sandy soil.

After looking for a distance in the soil, he found nothing, not even a few porcelain pieces.

The soil here is not like the old city where people have lived. There is basically nothing in the soil here except cemeteries.

Of course, some small tombs of ordinary people will not contain much, except for a few copper coins and a few pottery bowls and pots.If you dig a small tomb like this and call the cultural relics bureau, they won't even bother to pay attention.

There are small tombs of ordinary people everywhere in the world. If they are taken care of one or two, the archaeological team will not be busy enough even if the number of people is increased several times.

Besides, the archeology of common people's graves has nothing and no value.

Needless to say, if you find a slightly larger tomb like that, you will definitely have to report it.

When an archaeological team goes to a place like this, it can take a year and a half, or even three to five years. That is real archeology.

He was not surprised that nothing was found.

Wu Yuansheng knew that if he went out to hunt for treasures, he would not be able to gain something every time.

There was nothing in this distance, so he got on the bike and walked forward for a while.

After parking the car, he continued to look at the sand dug up by the excavator.

This time he had better luck. He found some bricks in a small pile of soil. These bricks were very small, much smaller than the big bricks from the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

Picking up a brick, he touched another brick and heard that the sound was crisp and not "dull" enough.

He once heard some people who knew bricks talk about the "fire" aura of bricks. The older the ancient bricks, the duller the sound of collision and the less "fire" aura they had.

Bricks that are more than a thousand years old have lost their "fire" energy, while bricks that are less than a thousand years old contain "fire" energy.

Freshly fired bricks are generally very brittle if they are not soaked in water. Even if they are soaked in water, they will still be very brittle after drying. Only after a long period of soaking in water will the "fire" gas be removed.

Wu Yuansheng felt that this seemed to be the same as being a human being. The older a person gets, the more experience he has, the smoother his edges are, the less "fire" he has, and the better he is in his cultivation.

Judging from the situation reflected by the bricks just now, the small tomb dug out by the excavator is very recent.

After searching carefully in the nearby soil, he saw a small Daoguang Tongbao coin and a half-broken small sauce-colored ceramic jar.

The jar looked freshly broken, probably broken when the excavator dug it out.

But this thing is not worth much, even if it is complete, it is not worth anything.

There was some sand in this half jar. Wu Yuansheng poured the soil out and stepped on it with his feet, but found nothing in the soil.

Seeing the small copper coins, and considering that there might be copper coins in the pile of soil, he took off his backpack, assembled and debugged the detector, and started detecting the soil near the bricks.

After some "sweeping", he found a few more coins and a small yellow-glazed ceramic incense burner.

The coins are also clear money, such as Kangxi Tongbao, Qianlong Tongbao, etc., but no good coins have been found.

The small incense burner is about the size of a duck egg, with a round top and bottom, no ears, and is very small.

He discovered this when he was digging a Kangxi Tongbao. At that time, the copper coins happened to be next to the small incense burner.

The incense burner is filled with earth.

Wu Yuansheng used a detector to detect the incense burner and found that there was nothing metal in it.

Although the incense burner is small, it has a good shape. This is much more valuable than the coins I just dug up.

After searching for the things here, he continued to move forward on his tricycle and took a look at the route ahead. It was still very long, but some places had not been excavated.

Road construction cannot be that fast. Even if it can be that fast, it must not be so fast.

There are many twists and turns, including other engineering projects, as is usually the case.

After looking at the soil dug up by the excavator for the next distance, he didn't find anything else. Maybe it was because the location was really too remote.

After checking the time, it was almost 12 o'clock, so he got on his bike and headed back to the city.
