Chapter 1011 Under the Beijinger's skull
After listening to Zhuang Rui's understanding of the skull of Beijing people, Professor Meng suddenly stood up and greeted Zhuang Rui: "Xiao Zhuang, come with me..."
"Teacher, what are you?"
Zhuang Rui couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Professor Meng open his lounge in the research institute. Because Professor Meng often did research day and night, he specially cleaned up a room and sometimes lived in the research institute.
It's just this room. He has never let Zhuang Rui and others in. Even Dr. Ren, who has been with him for the longest time, doesn't have this honor. Therefore, when Zhuang Rui saw Professor Meng letting him enter this room, he felt a little strange.
Professor Meng's room is not big. Except for a bed, it is surrounded by bookcases, which are full of all kinds of historical books and documents. Zhuang Rui looked at it slightly with aura and found that there are many books with aura, which can be called ancient books.
After entering the room, Professor Meng opened the lower floor of a bookcase and took out a pile of thick materials from it. Zhuang Rui saw clearly that the papers were slightly yellowed.
Professor Meng put the information in front of Zhuang Rui and said, "Zhuang Rui, I have collected all these materials for decades. You can have a good look. It may be a little helpful to find the skull of Beijing people this time..."
Zhuang Rui looked at this room. He really didn't even have a place to sit in. He can't sit in Professor Meng's **, can he? He immediately said, "Professor Meng, why don't we go out and have a look?"
"Eh, after you finish reading it, I still have to take back these materials..."
Professor Meng is the stack of materials in Zhuang Rui's hand. Some of these materials were collected by himself, and some of them were left to him by the old scientists who excavated the skulls of Beijingers by themselves.
Zhuang Rui agreed, walked out of the room with the materials in his arms, came to the living room and sat down, opened a document bag, took out the materials inside and read it carefully.
Time passed quickly in Zhuang Rui's reading, and Zhuang Rui was also attracted by the true records of that period of history decades ago. By the time he had finished reading all these materials, it was already dark.
"Damn, it's past nine o'clock..."
Zhuang Rui looked at the table below, and it was already past nine o'clock in the evening. He actually sat here for five or six hours, stretched his muscles and bones, and felt a little sour all over.
Taking out his mobile phone and taking a look, Zhuang Rui found that there were seven or eight un Answered calls on it, all from home. Because he was talking about things in the afternoon, Zhuang Rui muted his mobile phone.
"Well, teacher, haven't you left yet?"
Zhuang Rui put down the information in his hand. As soon as he stood up, he saw Professor Meng coming in from the outside, carrying a lunch box in his hand.
Professor Meng put the lunch box in his hand on the table in front of Zhuang Rui and said with a smile, "I know you want to watch it for a long time. I went home and cooked something to eat, but the old man likes light food. I don't know if it's your appetite..."
Professor Meng is satisfied with his closed disciple. Although Zhuang Rui is young, he is famous in different fields of antiques and jade circles, and has not lost his knowledge related to archaeology.
The fixed light sword came out in the past few years, including this year's real and fake Liu Xiu's tomb, and the ancient shipwreck of the Song Dynasty some time ago. All of these discoveries shocked the world's scientific research community, and Zhuang Rui's identity as a researcher was obtained.
As an old scientific examination staff and an educator, Professor Meng only has joy in his heart, especially when he saw Zhuang Rui's study of materials, which was like seeing his former self, so he went home to cook for Zhuang Rui.
"Teacher, thank you..."
After opening the lunch box and looking at the hot food, Zhuang Rui's heart was touched. At this moment, Professor Meng became a teacher who was really recognized by Zhuang Rui after Uncle De and Gu Tianfeng.
Professor Meng waved his hand and said with a smile, "Eat quickly. It will be cold after a while..."
After Zhuang Rui devoured the meal, Professor Meng pulled a notebook out of the data and said, "Have you read the content here?"
Zhuang Rui looked up at the notebook that should have been popular in the 1950s and 1960s, nodded and said, "Look, this should be left by Professor Feiwenzhong. It is very detailed about the fact that the Japanese once forced him to tell him about the whereabouts of the skulls of Beijing people..."
As the first Professor Fei Wenzhong to discover the skull of Beijing people, he was captured by the Japanese on the day of the fall of Beijing and imprisoned for more than 40 days, but when Japan declared war on the United States, he was inexplicably released again.
Judging from the time when the Japanese captured the U.S. Marines who escorted the skull fossils of the Beijing people, all kinds of signs show that the skulls of the Beijing people and many gold and silver calligraphy and painting relics must have fallen into the hands of the Japanese at that time, but after the war, the Japanese denied that they had obtained the skull
In this way, the skull of Beijing people has become the largest disappearance of cultural relics in the last century. Although several generations of scientists have not given up searching since the early days of liberation, they have never been seen.
However, from another piece of information, that is, the relevant information after part of the hull of the Awa Maru was salvaged out of the water in the 1970s, Zhuang Rui seems to have a turning point in Beijing's sky skull.
At that time, the salvage personnel found the small official seal and Yuan Yan of Zheng Yu, a pseudo-Manchurian politician, from the broken hull. From this, it was inferred that the ship confirmed the speculation that it carried a large number of treasures in northern China, and also became a powerful circumstantial evidence that "Awa Maru"
There are also a lot of information about the skull fossils of Beijing people, which is difficult to tell whether they are true or false. There is even a news that when U.S. President Nixon visited China that year, he gave the whereabouts of the fossils he thought by the United States to the Chinese government as a top secret gift, saying that the fossil
According to various signs, it is very likely that the Beijing people's skull is on the Awa Maru, but due to the restrictions of diving technology in the 1970s, it is not possible to effectively clean up the seabed silt and salvage all the items. As for the whereabouts of the Beijing people' skulls, it still cannot be confirmed.
"Zhuang Rui, do you think it's possible for Beijing people's skull fossils to be on the Awa Maru?"
Professor Meng knows that his disciple is different from others, and many of his opinions are often proved to be correct, so at this moment, Professor Meng asked Zhuang Rui in an inquiry tone.
"It is very likely, but one thing is difficult to explain, that is, the skull fossil disappeared in 1941, and the time of the Awa Maru crash was in 1945, which is four years apart. In these four years, why was the skull not shipped to Japan?"
After reading so much information, the most difficult thing for Zhuang Rui to understand is this. It is reasonable to say that such a priceless treasure will definitely be sent back to Japan as soon as the Japanese get it, instead of waiting for four years later to send it to the "Awa Maru" issue.
After hearing Zhuang Rui's question, Professor Meng nodded and said, "I have also examined this problem for a long time. There are two explanations.
The first explanation is that this batch of fossils were snatched by the Japanese from the Americans. At that time, the U.S. government negotiated with Japan about the fossil incident. In order to deny getting the fossils, Japan secretly transported them to the northeast, that is, Manchukuo at that time to hide...
The second explanation is that the Japanese did not recognize this object as a Beijing skull fossil at all at that time, because during the war, the bones of the dead were very common. Even if these bones were put in the box, they may not be able to attract the attention of the Japanese...
If it is the second explanation, then the Japanese will send these boxes containing fossils, together with those gold and silver calligraphy and painting cultural relics to the northeast, and moved to the Awa Maru when they were evacuated four years later..."
In order to understand the mystery of the bones of Beijing people at the beginning, a lot of work has been done in China. Even according to the dictation of a Japanese veteran, the Beijing Ritan Park has been secretly dug up, and then investigated in many places where skull fossils may appear, but there has been no harvest.
After three generations of scientists in Feiwen, they have not been able to find the whereabouts of Beijing skull fossils, which has also made many older scientists die.
Since Professor Meng participated in the salvage of the Awa Maru in the 1970s, he has been secretly looking for relevant information about the skull fossils of Beijing people. After many analyses, Professor Meng identified the skull as ***, which is on the Awa Maru.
Only because of the disaster of prison in the late 1970s, Professor Meng has always been a little angry about the salvage of the Awa Maru. Otherwise, with his reputation in the industry, I'm afraid he would have launched the second salvage of the Awa Maru long ago.
But after this incident happened today, it aroused Professor Meng's memory. Only then did he take out the information he had verified for many years and read it to Zhuang Rui. As a Chinese scientific research scholar, Professor Meng certainly hopes that the skull fossils of Beijing people will reappear in the world.
"Teacher, I'll take over this job. As long as the ship is really equipped with Beijing skull fossils, I will definitely find it!"
After reading those documents, Zhuang Rui could deeply feel the urgency and helplessness of the older generation of scientists, which made Zhuang Rui feel deeply, and his heart was surging for a moment, and he opened his mouth to say big words.
"You boy, don't talk big first. If the object rolls out of the box into the sea, how can you find it?"
Professor Meng looked at Zhuang Rui, who was full of confidence, and couldn't help laughing. In fact, he didn't have much hope to find the skull fossils of Beijing people.
"Ha ha, teacher, I've always been very lucky. Isn't that fixed lightsaber also a legendary object?"
Zhuang Rui laughed when he heard the words, turned around, and then said, "But... Teacher, if this skull fossil is really found, it will be left in my museum..."
