“Teacher, found it.”

Zhuang Rui pulled back his mask and gently spat out a few words from his mouth, but it made those few old experts feel like they were struck by lightning and their bodies involuntarily trembled.

Compared to those three knocks from the intercom, Zhuang Rui’s words were what made a big stone in the hearts of these few tough old men truly fall to the ground.

“Quickly …… quickly bring it over, no …… no, slow, slow, careful ……”

Forgive Professor Meng this life has handled countless precious cultural relics, in the face of the “Peking man skull fossil” has a special significance to the history of human evolution, is still heart pounding, difficult to own.

Three big backpack of skull, was carefully taken to the speedboat, followed by Zhuang Rui and others also on the speedboat, back to the cruise ship, of course, with this discovery, Zhuang Rui naturally will not dwell on the matter of pearl salvage.

After returning to the cruise ship, Prof. Meng asked Zhuang Rui to find a room, the doorway was guarded by security guards, except for the other two ancient human experts, only Zhuang Rui and Director Wu were allowed to enter.

There was naturally no need to question the authenticity of the skull, and Zhuang Rui looked at a few old people who were pleasantly surprised, a little heartbroken, and simply left that room to accompany his wife and children.

“Still not out?”

Zhuang Rui walked to the outside of the room that Professor Meng’s few people had been substituted for, and asked the security guard at the door, it was now more than one o’clock in the late night, and Professor Meng and the others had been in the room for more than ten hours as a whole.

“No, the meals were sent in as you ordered.”

The security guard at the door shook his head, he also admired these old experts, even the security guards had changed two shifts, the people inside were still doing research.

Knocking on the door, Zhuang Rui walked in, the three old men in the room who were burying their heads in those fossils, just looked up at Zhuang Rui, not even a greeting, and put their attention back into the fossils on the table.

Zhuang Rui saw that on the table on one side, a few portions of rice had long since gotten cold, but there was not a trace of moving, so he could not help but let out a bitter laugh and said, “I say, three teachers, this is something to be done, and the meal always needs to be eaten, right?”

“Xiao Zhuang, there’s no rush to eat, do you still remember how many fossils were collected in total?”

Professor Meng waved his hand, signaling Zhuang Rui to walk over, he had just been immersed in the fossils, and now that he saw Zhuang Rui, he happened to have some questions that needed to be answered by Zhuang Rui.

“I remember that there are a total of five skulls and three jaws, as for the teeth and bone fossils, there are always more than a hundred of them! I can’t remember either.”

Zhuang Rui shook his head, underwater he had to keep his balance and be careful that the fossils were not damaged, where would he work to check them one by one? Besides, many of the fossilized teeth were only the size of a small fingernail, so it was very troublesome to count them.

“Xiao Zhuang, you’ve made a great achievement!”

The old man next to him, Zhao, also raised his head from the pile of fossils at this moment, looking at Zhuang Rui with eyes full of relief and appreciation.

“Hehe, it’s just luck, who would have thought that an object that exploded dozens of nautical miles away would actually be washed there by seawater ah? But if it hadn’t been caught by the reef, I’m afraid these skull fossils would really be impossible to find, by the way, Prof. Meng, this fossil was also found by the other two divers together.”

Zhuang Rui’s mouth modestly said a few words, although he also knew that this explanation would not let others release their doubts, but Zhuang Rui did not have a better answer, but could only attribute it to the talk of luck.

And Zhuang Rui also purposely pulled on those two people to help himself to share some credit, this all happened to himself, surely there will be people floating around, if possible, Zhuang Rui would rather give all the credit to those two.

“Luck ……”

Professor Meng recited on his lips, an odd look on his face, this disciple of his, his luck was a bit too much.

From the fixed light sword to the pirate island treasure, from the Song Dynasty shipwreck to the Beijing human skull fossil, any of this discovery, will be a big event that shook the industry, but actually all appeared in Zhuang Rui’s body.

But think carefully, in addition to luck, Professor Meng can not find other possibilities, after all, these things are very strong chance, Professor Meng does not have the imagination of contemporary network writers, can imagine Zhuang Rui’s pair of magical eyes.

After muttering a few words in his heart, Prof. Meng looked at Zhuang Rui and said, “Zhuang Rui, you searched for a total of five skulls and three mandible fossils this time, in addition to seven skull fragments, 98 teeth and 138 fossilized femurs and fishy bones. We roughly counted it, this should be human fossils belonging to more than thirty individuals of both sexes, old and young, although there are fewer than in the data records, but most of them have been found, these fossils are enough to console the teachers’ souls in heaven.”

Even though more than ten hours had passed since the fossils came out of the water and were literally in front of them, several of the old professors still had a feeling like they were in a dream.

Things that had been completely disappointed, did not expect Zhuang Rui to go around underwater for such a time, but actually peaked and turned around, which could not help but feel a kind of unreality.

“Uh, Xiao Zhuang? You are also here? Just in time, just wanted to go look for you!”

Just when Zhuang Rui wanted to open his mouth to persuade a few old people to go and rest, Director Wu walked in from outside the door, unlike the bitter face of a dead parent in the morning, the current Director Wu was all red and glowing.

“Director Wu, still not resting?”

Zhuang Rui was a little reluctant to deal with Director Wu, anyway, the thing was found, according to the agreement, when the scientists finished their research, it will be returned to their own museum to keep for five years, just based on the identity of Director Wu, it is not possible to make trouble from it.

Director Wu seems to have long forgotten the morning’s unhappiness, said with a smile on his face: “Oh, Xiao Zhuang, there is something I want to talk to you about, let’s go out and talk!”

Zhuang Rui nodded and said, “Alright! Teacher, you few take an early rest! This learning can’t be done in a day.”

“Brat, is this teacher you or me? Rather teaching us a lesson.” Professor Meng scolded Zhuang Rui without a good mood and waved his hand for him to go out.

“Hm? Director Wu, what is this for?”

Zhuang Rui followed behind Director Wu and came to a room on the ship, and only after entering did he realize that there were already two people sitting in the room, both of whom Zhuang Rui recognized, one of them was Director Wu’s secretary, and the other was a staff member of the Maritime Bureau.

However, the placement of tables and chairs in the room made Zhuang Rui a little bit unhappy, a table was placed in front of it, and directly opposite the table, a chair was placed, a little bit of the flavor of the three halls.

“Xiao Zhuang, you don’t misunderstand, this is the organization assigned me, to your this discovery of skull fossil through, make a record, just a form, form only.”

Director Wu got a great credit for nothing this time, he knew himself how this credit came, he was afraid that Zhuang Rui would say something bad against him in the record, so when he spoke to Zhuang Rui, he actually used honorifics.

“Alright! You guys ask!”

Zhuang Rui looked at the chair placed in the middle of the room and walked straight to the sofa on one side and sat down, he didn’t want to be interrogated like a prisoner.

“Alright, Deputy General Director Zhuang, please tell us in detail about the discovery of the fossilized skull at that time.”

Director Wu changed his usual address of Xiao Zhuang and became official, in fact, this matter today, he himself was puzzled, and has been wondering in his heart until now!

This reef area and shipwreck location dozens of nautical miles apart, how is so coincidental, can be Zhuang Rui looking for this skull fossil it?

In the afternoon, Director Wu has been looking for the two divers to talk, their statements are the same, that is, Zhuang Rui first found the box, and later called them over, so that the director of Wu’s mind up endless doubts.

Not only that, Director Wu also looked for the old Li Tou who led the way, and learned that Zhuang Rui was indeed the first time to enter the reef area, which made him feel even more puzzled.

If it wasn’t for the fact that when this batch of skull fossils were lost, Zhuang Rui his old man was in his swaddling clothes, Director Wu even suspected that this box of fossils was hidden by Zhuang Rui.

“At that time, when I went down, I was looking for sea mussels.”

“Wait, Mr. Zhuang, this goes without saying, that reef area, is still the location where we searched for the wreckage!”

Zhuang Rui just opened his mouth to speak, and was interrupted by Director Wu, what kind of international joke is this? Can not report to the leadership that the skull fossil is Zhuang Rui for his wife to find the sea pearl found? Then what kind of political achievement would he have?

“Uh, well! At that time, when I went down to the seabed, I saw an object sandwiched between two reefs, and went over to take a look, well …… that’s the way things are, Director Wu, there’s nothing to ask, right?”

Zhuang Rui will go down to the seabed of the things that happened, in addition to the eyes to see that box beforehand, unreservedly told in detail, listening to the Wu director also can not find any fault, completely and those two divers said match.

“All right, Mr. Zhuang, this time you have made outstanding contributions to the cause of the national scientific research, and made a great merit for the country ah! Back in Beijing, the Vice Premier is going to receive you.”

Wu director of these words is sincere, this is Zhuang Rui’s chance, envy can not be envied, who let people have good luck, go to the daughter-in-law to fish pearls can be fished out of the national treasure it?

“Oh, this is also under the leadership of the Secretary Wu, only to make the achievement Well, when I must tell the leadership truthfully.”

As the saying goes, the flower sedan chair people carry people, Zhuang Rui on what the leadership receive press simply do not care, but good words who will say, he does not mind selling this favor.

“Little Wang, Little Li, that’s enough, you guys can go out.”

Director Wu waved his hand, and when those two recorders went out, he immediately stood up and shook Zhuang Rui’s hand, saying, “Mr. Zhuang, you …… look at this …… morning it was my old Wu who was wrong, and I’m here to apologize to you. ”

Director Wu is worthy of being a person in the officialdom, that is called a person who can stretch and bend ah! He is almost almost 20 years older than Zhuang Rui, this bend down, can be the posture to the lowest point.
