Chapter 2050 There are mountains, water and context
After arriving at the situation that night, the escort mission was completed. The rest was to see if there would be any accidents during the inspection. After dark, Wang Zan and Wen Yong both went to bed early. Since they were in the camp of the research team and the safety was guaranteed, both of them were unprepared for protection. In addition, after drinking a little, they fell asleep shortly after falling down.
Wenger and Ye Huichen started discussing on the bonfire. Originally, it was said that it would take only about two hours to hold a seminar, but when these scholarly figures discussed, time became the biggest uncertain factor, because once a certain issue was debated, it would last for a long time, and it would take until the second half of the night to end.
Ye Huichen's tent was next to them.
The next morning, when the sunlight from the far horizon just rose, Wen Yong woke up early. His daily routine always maintained the same pattern, and no matter what state it was, he would not be affected. After getting up, he patrolled around and inspected according to the usual practice.
Wang Zan woke up not long after. When he got up, Ye Huichen was washing and brushing his teeth. He came to the other party and asked, "What are your arrangements today?"
"Some issues had not been discussed last night, so I had to delay the morning. In the afternoon, I assigned work from all parties and conducted details of the scientific examination. I guess tomorrow will be a normal research work." Ye Huichen rinsed his mouth and wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue and said, "You and Wen Yong are resting on the side. They will be relatively leisurely these two days, and there is basically nothing to do."
Wang Zan shook his head and said, "Let Wenyong stay here, I have to go out."
Ye Huichen asked in surprise: "Where are you going?"
"Come around, step on a little bit, look at the terrain..." Wang Zan said in a very general way, and Ye Huichen said "oh" and told him to pay attention to safety, then he didn't ask more questions.
After breakfast, Wang Zan asked Wenyong for the car keys and drove out of the camp in 570. Although he drove, he didn't plan to walk far away. The safety of this unfamiliar place was not guaranteed, so he planned to stroll around a radius of dozens of miles.
The terrain here is the lower reaches of the Mesopotamian Basin, located in the middle of the Mesopotamian Basin of the Tigris and Euphrates River, that is, the Mesopotamian Plain. The area of the plain is very large and about 200,000 square kilometers. Since the plain is relatively flat and simple, there are no towering peaks. However, there are many lakes on the plain and the underground is more complex, with many lakes and storms, intersecting.
The area they are now located near the eastern part of the plain is where the Sumerian civilization was born, and the terrain is relatively higher.
What Boss Lin said is very reasonable, that is, no matter where it is an ancient city or tomb, you will definitely have such and such unknown and strange possibilities. Therefore, if you want to visit these places, you must first be well prepared.
Moreover, there are various sayings such as Feng Shui and dragon veins in China, which is actually the same abroad. Because the Feng Shui dragon veins are originally formed by the trend of mountains and rivers, as long as these two factors are present, Feng Shui and dragon veins will definitely be formed. Therefore, Ye Huichen's research team will not conduct in-depth investigations in the past two days. So Wang Zan has to take advantage of this period of time to make a good start. He plans to walk clockwise from the east to strive for the entire area.
After driving for more than ten minutes, he could still see the shadow of the camp. Wang Zan stopped the car and began to stroll slowly. Wherever he saw, he tried to observe the surrounding scenes to see if there was anything he needed to record.
Because the area is too vast and extensive, Wang Zan is still very slow. He only drove around for two or three hours and stopped for a few square kilometers. There is nothing worth discovering. The main reason is that the terrain here is too single, and it can be said to be flat.
However, when walking further, about a kilometer or two away, a blue mirror appeared in front of Wang Zan's eyes. The sunlight reflected down and was a little dazzling. When it was close, it found that it was a lake, with an area not very large, similar to a small reservoir. The lake water was blue and clear, and the blue waves were rippling.
After the car drove to the lake, Wang Zan walked with his waist on his waist. He listened to the movement of the lake water washing the shore in the breeze, and felt quite romantic.
After Wang Zan walked along the lake for a while, he suddenly found that there were two children not far away, crawling on the ground and kneeling in the direction of the lake.
Wang Zan thought that there was no people around them camping, and there were barren and desolate everywhere, but he didn't expect that he could still see people at this time, and they were two children.
Wang Zan's footsteps also alarmed the other party. The two children seemed to be frightened. They stood up and took several steps back. Then they did not move anymore. Then they smiled and shrugged their shoulders. Because they could not speak, he did not speak, but remember that the dried meat he had eaten in the morning seemed to be put on his body, so he took it out of his pocket and signaled it to the two children and placed it on the ground.
Wang Zan put down the dried meat and turned around and returned to 570. After starting the car, he drove in another direction. He planned to drive around the lake. Not long after he left, the two children arrived at the place where he had been standing before, picked up the dried meat from a stone and looked at it for a while before stuffing it into his mouth.
Wang Zan drove around the lake, observing the lake from time to time, and remembering the shape of the lake in his head. The lake is crescent-shaped, and the water is very clear. When it is a little closer, you can see the bottom of the water several meters away.
However, there is something that Wang Zan thinks is quite strange, but there seems to be no fish in the lake. He has been walking around for a long time and has stood on the shore for a long time, but he has not seen a single fish.
From afar, the two children I just saw were still worshiping towards the lake. Although they could not see their expressions, Wang Zan felt that these two children should be very pious.
I searched the information I had read in the Beijing University Library before, but it seemed that I could not find any records about this lake. However, according to the situation of the capital built by the Sumerians, this lake is located in the south of the city.
So Wang Zan looked at the other side of the lake again, and in the distance was the only high mountain on this plain.
