Xu Xiaoying was still dizzy along the way. During this period, she took out her phone countless times to see if her fan friend, the successor of Uncle Nine, was online.
However, every time she saw it, she was disappointed.
The portrait of Ninth Uncle's successor was always in a gray offline state.
On the way, she also found out that the professor's name was Xu Qingshan, and he was also a member of the Golden Sparrow Lake Cultural Relics Expert Group.
And just like Professor Zhou Huaiwen, they were both in the field of ancient writing research.
However, Professor Xu Qingshan was a professor at Southern University. He had been transferred to Beijing to join the expert group in the past six months.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the archeological research institute in Xu Qingshan's car.
The archeological research institute occupied dozens of acres of land and was filled with tall buildings.
What was even more impressive was that there was a reinforced regiment of soldiers stationed around the archaeological research institute.
All the soldiers were armed and guarded the safety of the research institute 24 hours a day.
The reason why he was so cautious was because any cultural relic in the archaeological research institute was a top-notch national treasure and priceless.
Countries with serious historical and cultural gaps and poor archaeological work were extremely envious of China's national treasures.
He had been secretly sending spies to infiltrate the research institute to steal the national treasure.
In the past, when the country's awareness of defense was not in place, a few items had really been stolen.
Those countries shamelessly held press conferences when they had cultural relics, claiming that the cultural relics were their own and even making China's history their own!
In addition to foreign spies, there were also many outlaws in the country who were willing to take risks in order to make a lot of money.
More than ten years ago, when the archaeological research institute was not as heavily guarded as it was now, there were bandits who broke in with guns. Not only did they steal a few national treasures, but they also killed and injured several archaeologists.
From then on, the higher-ups of the country attached great importance to the safety of the research institute.
They had specially sent a reinforcement group to guard outside the research institute!
After a series of inspections, the three of them were finally allowed to enter the research institute.
Everywhere they went, the soldiers standing guard would salute Zhou Huaiwen and Xu Qingshan with reverence.
Xu Xiaoying was shocked when she saw this scene.
She knew that archaeologists were respected and had a high status, but she did not expect it to be this high!
Perhaps he could tell what Xu Xiaoying was thinking, Zhou Huaiwen smiled and explained,"Student Xu, these soldiers don't respect experts like us, but respect China's lost cultural history! Our duty is to dig up the cultural history buried deep underground!”
Hearing this, Xu Xiaoying was greatly shocked. Her face suddenly became solemn and she replied solemnly,"Professor Zhou, I understand. I will definitely uphold my sense of mission as an archaeologist and always put excavating history first!”
Seeing Xu Xiaoying understand his intentions so quickly, Zhou Huaiwen smiled with relief.
However…
Xu Qingshan, who was at the side, looked puzzled and could not help but ask,"Old Zhou, is she your new disciple? But aren't we going to a meeting? It's not appropriate for you to bring your disciple there…"
Zhou Huaiwen laughed and shook his head."Don't worry, my disciple will definitely surprise you later!”
Xu Xiaoying was pleasantly surprised when she heard the word 'disciple.'
Professor Zhou Huaiwen was an authoritative expert in the field of ancient characters. Many people tried their best to become his disciple, but they failed.
From Professor Zhou's words, it seemed that he wanted to take him as a disciple?
He was both excited and nervous.
Xu Xiaoying finally arrived in front of the main building of the archaeological research institute!
This place was also the holy land in the hearts of all archaeologists in the country!
Ever since the start of a comprehensive archaeological excavation in China, almost all the important cultural relics were stored in this building.
After entering the building, they could see that the protection inside was also of the highest level.
There were thousands of surveillance cameras inside and outside, and there was almost no blind spot in the entire building.
There were even more soldiers patrolling around the building.
It was almost impossible to sneak into this building.
The three of them took the elevator and went to the main conference room on the sixth floor of the building.
Dozens of experts and scholars from all over the country had been waiting for a long time.
As soon as Zhou Huaiwen and the other two entered, a familiar expert started complaining.
"Old Zhou, why are you so slow? I've been waiting for you for a long time! Hey, Old Zhou, who is this little girl behind you?”
"I can't explain it in a short time," Zhou Huaiwen said."Wait until I'm done announcing the matter!”
After saying this, Zhou Huaiwen walked straight to the rostrum of the conference room.
He walked to the podium, picked up the microphone, and said in a loud voice,""Everyone, I have an extremely important announcement to make!”
In the conference room, all the experts and professors were stunned. They all looked at Zhou Huaiwen.
"Old Zhou, what is it? Is it more important than the newly discovered stone tablet at Golden Sparrow Lake?”
As soon as the stone tablet of Yizhou was unearthed, the news was sent to the research institute.
Therefore, the deputy director of the research institute, who was also in charge of the archeological work at Golden Sparrow Lake, hurriedly gathered all the experts for a meeting!
No one could understand what could be more important than the stone tablet at Golden Sparrow Lake!
Zhou Huaiwen nodded solemnly." That's right. It's even more important than the discovery of the stone tablet at Golden Sparrow Lake!”
The experts and professors were all shocked!
