After Pei Siqing's story was sorted out, Wen Baoyu commented again: "This guy must have died of thirst in the desert and never made it to Chang'an." Bai Su frowned: "It's really vicious... I don't know if there is anything that can be tested on that dagger?" I smiled wryly: "Are there more than sixty women? If those women really did what he said, they would be too stupid. I think the most noteworthy is what the dwarf said when he was dying. He said that those women None of them will grow old, living together is extremely mysterious, and the way they deal with Jin Yue seems to be a little... extremely unbelievable."

Wen Baoyu suddenly said again: "If anyone creates such a story and writes it on old sheepskin to deceive people, it will really deceive us fools." Hu Hua didn't like talking very much, so he expressed his opinion at this time: "It's not easy to create such a story." Wen Baoyu waved his hands exaggeratedly: "It's not fun, it's extremely boring, it has no beginning and no end, and it's completely impossible to make further explorations. Among all the experiences, this one is the least fun." I gave him a blank look: "The time when the head-down master fought was the most fun."

Wen Baoyu took a breath, he was not very willing to discuss that experience with others, but if someone mentioned it, he would show a very sweet smile, and this time was no exception.Moreover, if this kid appeared for no reason and smiled suddenly, he probably remembered that incident. Bai Su said slowly: "Xiaobao, don't say it's boring, analyze it, and discuss it in depth, you can find a lot of interesting things." Wen Baoyu opened his eyes wide, fixed Bai Su, and Bai Su said: "The country of women in white clothes is like a country of daughters - this is a very interesting record."

Wen Baoyu muttered: "I hope they are not fooled, otherwise it will be a mass suicide." Hu joked and laughed: "I wasn't fooled at the time, and it's exactly the same now." Bai Su's words were very slow and strange: "If the dwarf's observation is correct, they will not grow old, then they may still be living in the desert today. A group of women in white clothes who will not die of old age, they are not human beings on the earth. Isn't it mysterious to live with the knowledge?" Wen Baoyu blinked: "Look for them in the desert?" I waved my hand vigorously: "Impossible, I can't find it, along the Silk Road, the territory is so vast, how many deserts do I have to go through, how can I find it?"

Bai Su tilted his head: "I also agree that I can't find it, but in Pei Siqing's records, there are many strange and inexplicable situations: the dwarf said how they dealt with the golden moon, and also said that in a cave, there were many He saw something that he had no idea what it was." I pushed Wen Baoyu a bit: "Xiao Bao, what are your plans?" Wen Baoyu burst out laughing suddenly, pointing at me while laughing, pressed his stomach with one hand again, and yelled: "Aliens." He found it so funny, he was naturally laughing that no matter what strange things I encountered, I would think of aliens.

This is actually nothing funny, in many cases, it is true, the large group of women in white clothes may naturally be aliens - as long as we believe in the existence of alien advanced creatures, then they can appear in the world at any time anywhere. I glared at Wen Baoyu, expressing that it wasn't funny, the nonsense, but touched my heart, he said: "Those women... may not be aliens, but I have a feeling that they are... a group of abandoned people , trying to find their lost roots." I also have this feeling, naturally because in the narrative, the heroine once mentioned that they originally belonged to the kingdom of heaven, and if they wanted to "ascend to heaven", they naturally returned to the kingdom of heaven.What can bring them back to the kingdom of heaven is a dagger given by the gods, but it is a pity that the dagger is in their hands, and they can't understand the mystery of the dagger and don't know how to use it.

The dagger, of course, is that dagger. What happened 1,500 years ago naturally turned to dust and no longer existed, but the dagger and the bundle of sheepskins remained, and so did the stories. This kind of situation makes people sigh, Wen Baoyu and Hu Shuo are young, so naturally they will not feel sad, they are still very interested in asking the bottom line, Wen Baoyu said: "You mean, those women were abandoned by the gods ?” Hu Hua shook his head: "I just have this feeling." Wen Baoyu's rhetoric became more and more fierce: "It doesn't make sense. If they are a group of abandoned people, then what are they? Are they aliens or people from Earth? They always have their origins. According to my opinion, they are just people from the desert. A small tribe, with few males, is naturally extinct, and there may be ancient legends that make them think that they can ascend to heaven, so, in despair, this hope is all the stronger."

I applauded a few times: "The analysis is reasonable. This matter cannot be further explored and can be included in the archives." Wen Baoyu said: "No, we just read through the Chinese cursive script on the sheepskin, and there are a lot of weird characters. If we can recognize them, we will know more." He sighed again: "Xun Nineteen, what a beautiful name, that dwarf must be very knowledgeable, otherwise he wouldn't have named his younger sister Rou Niang, it sounds so nice." I said: "Okay, you can go ahead and believe that Pei Siqing's story can reveal more in that weird text."

Wen Baoyu really went to do it. Through various methods, he sent the photos of the sheepskin to the text research all over the world. He also consulted many people and helped him with nonsense.Hu Hua's uncle is the famous archaeologist Hu Ming, who knows many scholars from all over the world. But after two months, no one knew what kind of script it was. At most, they only said that it was the category of the scripts in Central Asia, but after a considerable degree of mutation, it was impossible to decipher it at all. Wen Baoyu also worked hard to input the shape of this kind of characters into a large computer to analyze and combine, hoping to find a pattern, but there was no result at all, which made him feel ashamed.

That night, he and Hu Hua came to my study again and sighed, "I can't continue." I spread my hands to him, expressing that this result was in my expectation. Wen Baoyu's expression couldn't help being frustrated, Bai Su smiled and said: "Xiao Bao, you have such a rich imagination, you can continue this story." When Wen Baoyu heard it, he looked leisurely and fascinated: "I've thought about it, naturally go to the desert and find the ancient ruins of the kingdom of heaven. It's best if those women in white clothes are still there, and I'll go and return the dagger to them—"

I sighed: "Xiaobao, if those women are still there, the dagger will not fall into the hands of the expedition team." Wen Baoyu refused: "Perhaps the expedition team used very despicable means to trick the dagger into their hands." Instead of arguing with him, I just suggested: "You can search the history or legends of Persia to see if there is any information about this dagger bestowed by the gods. It is a kind of indirect method." Hu Shuo and Wen Baoyu nodded repeatedly. It seemed that they were very interested in this matter. I raised this point and asked them why.The reasons for both of them are the same: the dagger is there, and a large bundle of sheepskins is also there, and there is actually one thing recorded, but the result is unknown, and there is nothing more sad than this. I admired their spirit of seeking the bottom line, and asked again: "What kind of ending are you expecting?" The two also agreed: Pei Siqing was extremely despicable. When he was married to Xun Jiu, he made such a poisonous oath, and later killed Xun Jiu without any remorse. Such a person , should have fulfilled the oath and died in the desert. I spread my hands and said, "It's impossible to know what the outcome will be for more than 1,500 years. Forget it." Wen Baoyu wanted to talk, but as soon as he opened his mouth, a phone with an unknown number of mine rang—generally speaking, the person who called me must be an acquaintance.At this time, all the people in the study were acquaintances, so I pressed a call button so that everyone could hear who was calling. I said "Hello" first, and then reported my name . Immediately heard a very familiar voice: "Hello. This is Hu Ming, a long-distance call from Egypt." Hu Huada was very happy, and called out: "Uncle Hu Ming." How could Wen Baoyu be willing to be a descendant, and hurriedly introduced himself, Hu Ming smiled: "Who else is there?" Bai Su responded, and Hu Ming took a deep breath: "Both of you, I have a heartless request." I hurriedly said: "I said what it is first, I can't make any promises before I don't know what it is." Hu Ming sighed: "Wesley, you are becoming more and more sophisticated." I didn't say anything, but Hu Ming said what it was: "There is a person who wants to see you, and I have something to discuss with you." I snorted: "Who is it, what is it?" Hu Mingdao: "One of my colleagues, an archaeologist, specializes in the history of Central Asia, is an authority on Islamic culture, and is proficient in ancient Assyrian Empire cuneiform experts. He once discovered the huge tomb of Shargon II—" When I heard this, I have already answered: "Dr. Hanliemi." Hu Ming said: "Yes, it is him." This Dr. Hanlimi is a great archaeologist.At this time, Hu Hua interjected: "We also asked him for advice, but he didn't know that kind of writing either." I still asked, "What's the matter?" Hu Hua sighed: "That's the problem, he won't tell me, he's only willing to tell you in person." I don't like this kind of behavior the most, so I immediately said: "Then forget it, I don't have time." Hu Ming snorted: "He has an explanation, saying that the matter is very mysterious and has a lot to do with it. He said that you will definitely refuse, but he can tell you one thing." I sneered twice, expressing my lack of interest, and said at the same time: "This doctor, together with Dr. Yuan Zhenxia two years ago, made an astonishing discovery in Central Asia and excavated a large-scale mausoleum. Why didn't he find the original doctor?" Doctor, want to see me?" Hu Ming smiled wryly: "If the original doctor could be found, he would have done so long ago, but if he couldn't find it, then—" When he said this, he felt something was wrong, and immediately stopped talking. I had already said coldly: "So I am the backup." Hu Ming sighed, but said to himself: "Dr. Hanlimi asked me to tell you that he recently represented an Arab sheikh and bought a whole batch of jade and gold wares. The... astronomical price, what is included? A dagger and a story inside..." Before Hu Ming finished speaking, Wen Baoyu jumped up: "Speak quickly! Speak quickly." I glared at Wen Baoyu and reprimanded him in a low voice, "What are you doing?" I also took a deep breath, and Hu Ming paused for a while before asking, "Wesley, how are you doing?" What I said was also what Wen Baoyu said just now: "Where is he, tell me quickly!" Hu Ming seemed to be greatly relieved: "He is by my side, do you want to talk to him?" I hurriedly said, "Of course, please, Professor Hanliemi?" There was a rather low voice on the phone, which was very pleasing: "Yes, Mr. Wesley, I'm sorry, because I am familiar with Dr. Yuan, so when I have difficulties, I think of him first." I felt very embarrassed: "Don't mention it again, and Dr. Yuan is a good friend. He knew that you discovered the ancient tomb of the ancient emperor and then blew it up. Your behavior is very embarrassing." People admire." Hanliemi's voice sounded very excited: "Thank you, after that incident, I have been thinking about whether I should do that, and now I finally have the affirmation." (Professor Han Liemi, Dr. Yuan Zhenxia and the huge ancient imperial tomb are another story, which is the legendary story of Yuan Zhenxia.) After we exchanged greetings, I saw Wen Baoyu anxiously standing aside, winking, so I said, "When can you come?" Han Liemi said: "As soon as possible." Wen Baoyu yelled from the side: "Professor, please reveal something first, what is it for?" Han Liemi let out a few dry laughs, his dry laughter sounded helpless, and he asked: "Your Excellency—" Wen Baoyu gave his name and added: "Wesley's friend." Hanliemi sighed again: "I'll come quickly, isn't it better than wasting time on the phone?" Hu Ming snorted: "He has an explanation, saying that the matter is very mysterious and has a lot to do with it. He said that you will definitely refuse, but he can tell you one thing." I sneered twice, expressing my lack of interest, and said at the same time: "This doctor, together with Dr. Yuan Zhenxia two years ago, made an astonishing discovery in Central Asia and excavated a large-scale mausoleum. Why didn't he find the original doctor?" Doctor, want to see me?" Hu Ming smiled wryly: "If the original doctor could be found, he would have done so long ago, but if he couldn't find it, then—" When he said this, he felt something was wrong, and immediately stopped talking. I had already said coldly: "So I am the backup." Hu Ming sighed, but said to himself: "Dr. Hanlimi asked me to tell you that he recently represented an Arab sheikh and bought a whole batch of jade and gold wares. The... astronomical price, what is included? A dagger and a story inside..." Before Hu Ming finished speaking, Wen Baoyu jumped up: "Speak quickly! Speak quickly." I glared at Wen Baoyu and reprimanded him in a low voice, "What are you doing?" I also took a deep breath, and Hu Ming paused for a while before asking, "Wesley, how are you doing?" What I said was also what Wen Baoyu said just now: "Where is he, tell me quickly!" Hu Ming seemed to be greatly relieved: "He is by my side, do you want to talk to him?" I hurriedly said, "Of course, please, Professor Hanliemi." There was a rather low voice on the phone, which was very pleasing: "Yes, Mr. Wesley, I'm sorry, because I am familiar with Dr. Yuan, so when I have difficulties, I think of him first." I felt very embarrassed: "Don't mention it again, and Dr. Yuan is a good friend. He knew that you discovered the ancient tomb of the ancient emperor and then blew it up. Your behavior is very embarrassing." People admire." Hanliemi's voice sounded very excited: "Thank you, after that incident, I have been thinking about whether I should do that, and now I finally have the affirmation." (Professor Han Liemi, Dr. Yuan Zhenxia and the huge ancient imperial tomb are another story, in the legend of Yuan Zhenxia.) After we exchanged greetings, I saw Wen Baoyu anxiously standing aside, winking, so I said, "When can you come?" Han Liemi said: "As soon as possible." Wen Baoyu yelled from the side: "Professor, please reveal something first, what is it for?" Han Liemi let out a few dry laughs, and his dry laughter turned helpless, and he asked: "Your Excellency—" Wen Baoyu gave his name and added: "Wesley's friend." Hanliemi sighed again: "I'll come quickly, isn't it better than wasting time on the phone?" Even so, Wen Baoyu still called out: "On that sheepskin, we have sorted out a very weird story." This point may have been unexpected by Han Liemi, so he paused for a moment before saying: "Really? I didn't expect that there seemed to be two kinds of characters on the sheepskin, both of which were indecipherable—" Wen Baoyu laughed loudly: "One is unrecognizable. The other is the cursive script of Chinese characters. If you connect with Dr. Hu Ming early, he will be able to recognize those characters." When Wen Baoyu said this triumphantly, he forgot that he had said thousands of times "what kind of script is this?" On the other side of the phone, Hu Ming hummed: "Don't think too highly of me, I can't recognize the cursive script of Chinese characters very well." Wen Baoyu wanted to say something more, but I already raised my hand to stop him from continuing, and at the same time said to the phone: "Then please come quickly." Hanliemi agreed and thanked him again and again.I put down the phone, and Bai Su was also very happy: "There is no way out, there is no way out, and there is another village." Wen Baoyu was very satisfied: "It's terrible that he won't say anything." Hu Hua frowned: "The large number of treasures really fell into the hands of the Arab sheikhs—except for them, I'm afraid there is no one who can afford such a large sum of money." Wen Baoyu also expressed his opinion: "It's strange. Generally speaking, although the Arab sheikhs have endless money, they rarely invest in cultural undertakings! They would rather have their cars studded with diamonds." I clapped my palms and announced loudly: "The meeting is over, and we will talk about it when Professor Han Liemi arrives." Because I know that with Wen Baoyu present, one hypothesis after another, he can continue to mention it for a day and a night, and as soon as Han Liemi arrives, he can know the answer to the question, why waste time? Wen Baoyu rolled his eyes and wanted to protest, but when he saw my face down, he was also very interested, so he just shrugged: "When the professor arrives, let me know, no, I will come to check every ten minutes information." I sighed and discussed with him: "How about every hour?" Wen Baoyu clapped his hands, hehe laughed: "This is called asking prices all over the sky and paying back the money when you land. If I said to inquire once an hour, you must tell me to change it to five hours." After Hu Shuo and Wen Baoyu left, Bai Su stretched himself, and suddenly asked me: "What's wrong with Dr. Yuan? It seems that people all over the world are looking for him, but they can't find him." I spread my hands: "It's nothing, it seems to be an emotional entanglement." Bai Su sighed: "This weird doctor." The story of Doctor Yuan belongs to Doctor Yuan and has nothing to do with me.In the next day, I sorted out Pei Siqing's story again, and felt that there were many doubts—I was not interested in Pei Siqing's life in Chang'an, but in his life after he was rescued in the desert. The experience of living in the "Kingdom of Heaven". Naturally, the most important point is: what is the way of those women in white clothes? The woman in white has many secrets that even the dwarf who has lived with them for a long time does not know. It is known from the records that the dwarf has been to a cave, and there are many things in the cave that he does not know what they are. The dwarf was very suspicious of the identities of the women in white, and even called them "banshees" in words, but Pei Siqing was not as good as the dwarf, and that was naturally because he couldn't understand the language of the women in white. According to the records, the result of repeated sorting is nothing more than this, and there is no further development. Professor Hanliemi came really fast. Counting from the phone call, within 27 hours, he appeared in my living room. Hu Shi and Wen Baoyu arrived half an hour before he arrived.During that half hour, Wen Baoyu naturally uttered nonsense again, without saying a word. Professor Han Liemi is not tall, with dark skin, very lean and solid, with strong handshakes, he is used to drinking the wine in his glass in one gulp, and said: "The Chinese 'cheers' is really interesting. For the nation, the goblet is made of sheep horn or ox horn, and it cannot be put down at all, and the wine in the cup must be drunk in one gulp." The greetings are over, and everyone is waiting for Han Liemi to speak. I don't know if he has any problems and wants to ask me for help. He did speak as expected, but to our surprise, he started with the topography of the Arabian Peninsula. Not only did he explain the topography of the Arabian Peninsula to us, but he also took out a pocket map and explained it by pointing to it.
