Chapter 26: Longevity of the White Crane

Antique Street, Juguang Pavilion.

Professor Lin closes the door on time at 8 o'clock every night.

He never cared whether he was in business or not. It seemed that he opened such a shop purely for his own preference.

Before the age of 40, he worked in a museum in the capital, and his position was not low, and he was considered famous.

But later, for some unknown reason, he resigned and disappeared for a while. It was only in recent years that he returned to the hometown where he was born and raised, and opened such an antique shop.

His shop opens at 10 am and closes at 8 pm, and has always been on time without exception.

Compared with other counterparts on this street, it seems quite Buddhist.

I don't know if my body can last until the day when the secret is revealed?

In the quiet room, he sat alone on a straw futon, staring at the two-foot-square painting on the wall - The Longevity of the White Crane.

Sighing, also remembering.

Before today, he had never shown this painting to outsiders.

And he himself has watched it for 20 years.

It was because he had studied for too many years and failed to produce any results. In addition, his health was getting worse day by day. He was afraid that he would not be able to hold on. That's why Song Yuchen and Zheng Wenbing had a look at it today.

Speaking of this painting, I didn't buy it, nor was it given to me by anyone.

But 20 years ago, during an archaeological operation, it was pulled out from a corpse.

Professor Lin Gaohan still remembers that scene.

Even waking up from dreams at countless nights was because of that scene.

Twenty years ago, he was 45 years old.

Because one day I received news that a village in Central South Province had landslides due to continuous days of heavy rain, and ancient monuments appeared.

After receiving the news, Lin Gaohan followed the leader of the team and rushed over immediately.

When we got there, the rain was still pouring.

Wearing raincoats and holding umbrellas, they rescued the ancient relics that had been buried by the soil for an unknown number of years in the mudslides.

That time, they gained a lot.

Many of the things I got were from the Southern and Northern Dynasties.

The team leader at the time felt that there might be a huge group of ancient tombs in that place.

So after rescuing those exposed historic sites, he made a decisive decision and divided his subordinates into four groups to disperse the investigation.

Professor Lin Gaohan is on a team with a young assistant, Xiao Li.

The two of them made a big circle at that time, went around to the back of the mountain village, and conducted a comprehensive survey.

In fact, the shape of that mountain village looks like a giant tortoise from a height.

The location of the village is on the back of the turtle, and the mountain where the landslide landslides is the raised head of the giant turtle.

Lin Gaohan and his assistant Xiao Li surveyed for 3 days in a row. During the 3 days, it rained heavily every day, and the mountains were surrounded by thick fog, so the viewing distance was very limited.

But on the morning of the fourth day, where Lin Gaohan and the others were inspecting, the mountain seemed to have been cut by a knife, and more than half of it slid down.

Also at this time, a rotten coffin flew out of the center of the mountain.

The coffin slipped, rushed to the foot of the mountain, and fell into a mud pit.

It's a coffin, Professor Lin. Assistant Xiao Li shouted.

Of course Lin Gaohan also saw it, and immediately greeted: Use a rope, drag the coffin out first, don't get too close to the mountain, and be careful of another landslide.

Yes.

The assistant Xiao Li quickly took out a horse king nail, hammered it into one end of the coffin, tied a rope, and together with Lin Gaohan, they dragged the coffin out of the mud pit.

For safety reasons, they dragged the coffin farther away.

Professor Lin, should we tell the team leader first, or take a look first? Assistant Xiao Li asked excitedly.

Young people who have just joined the archaeological work,

Every time there is a harvest, he will appear very excited. Lin Gaohan understood it very well, and said with a smile: Let's take a look first, this coffin is very ordinary, maybe it was only a few decades ago.

it is good.

The coffin has decayed, and it is indeed not a high-standard production.

The downpour continued.

Xiao Li picked up a steel braze and pried off the coffin lid.

At that time, the sky was gray.

But just as Xiao Li opened the lid of the coffin, a red light erupted from the coffin.

The light pierced people's eyes.

Lin Gaohan was shocked. He had been in the industry for many years and had never seen such a strange situation.

The dazzling red light only lasted for two or three seconds before disappearing.

Then, Lin Gaohan and Xiao Li rushed to the mouth of the coffin excitedly and curiously, and looked inside.

I saw a white bone inside, covered with a piece of black tattered cloth.

That red light came from under the cloth.

Assistant Xiao Li couldn't help but wanted to reach out and lift the rag.

Be careful, let me come. Lin Gaohan called to stop him in time.

The young man is not experienced enough, so he is not very relieved.

Oh. Xiao Li withdrew his hand apologetically, his eyes full of curiosity. He stared unblinkingly into the coffin.

Lin Gaohan stretched out his hand, carefully picked up a corner of the rag, and then opened it little by little.

When it was opened halfway, red light flashed on the body of the skeleton again, and the light pierced their eyes again.

Then, in a trance, they seemed to see a dazzling ray of light, like a dragon, flying out of the coffin, piercing into the sky, and disappearing in a blink of an eye.

Lin Gaohan was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

Suddenly, the remaining rags were completely removed, and a white crane was vaguely seen descending from the sky, flapping its wings, and landed on a corner of the coffin.

The white crane stretched its neck and let out a long chirp.

Both Lin Gaohan and Xiao Li were stunned.

But in the blink of an eye, the white crane also disappeared.

All that remains is a picture placed on the body of the bone in the corner of the coffin.

But where the red light flew away just now, there was only a rotten scabbard left.

Professor Lin, this...what's the situation? Xiao Li seemed to have had his three views refreshed, and all his cognitions were shocked.

The scabbard?

Lin Gaohan picked up the scabbard, but just as he picked it up, it broke—the degree of decay was too high.

He went to pick up the picture in the corner again.

The strange thing is that this picture is not wet from the rain. Although it looks dirty and dilapidated, it looks like it existed before.

The picture was spread out, and in the rainstorm, only the words White Crane Longevity Picture leaped over it.

In the painting, there is also a red-crowned crane with ethereal spirit dancing and singing.

Lin...Professor Lin...this... Xiao Li was so excited that he couldn't speak, and his whole body trembled.

Longevity Picture? White Crane Longevity Picture? Longevity? Does this picture have the mystery of longevity? Lin Gaohan also felt his tongue dry up.

Such a wonderful scene cannot but make people's imagination run wild.

Professor Lin, this is a miracle. It is definitely a miracle. No, it should be called a miracle, yes, it is a miracle. We have to tell the team leader that this is a major discovery, and it is also a discovery that can shock the world. Xiao Li Shouting excitedly, he turned around and was about to run towards the station.

Going to announce the good news.

However, Lin Gaohan was stunned, muttering Longevity and Longevity in his mouth.

Suddenly, for no reason, an evil thought arose, he picked up a sharp stone from the ground, and threw it at the back of Xiao Li's head.
