[ Episode 31 ]
Regarding what happened Myanmar, I've been looking for a chance to apologize to you.
You don't need to.
It is because I was too trusting of...
Whatever it is, you were injured because of me. I'm sorry.
No need to say sorry.
Thank you. Thank you very much.
Why are you thanking me for?
Thank you for taking care of me. Thank you...
I drank some wine. I'm speaking incoherently. Please do not mind what I said.
I don't mind it, but, I didn't say I'll forgive you.
Huh?
Then, tell me, what must I do before you'll forgive me?
Sing a song for me.
Okay, how about rock and roll?
Okay.
But, rock and roll is unsuitable for the current situation.
How about a...
nursery rhyme.
- Do you like nursery rhyme? - Yes.
Do you want to hear something which was sang by my grandmother, or grandfather?
Your grandmother.
When I was little, my grandmother sang this song to me frequently. It is called
Little Stars.
♪ Twinkle twinkle so sparkling ♪
♪ The sky is filled with little stars ♪
♪ Hanging in the sky so bright ♪
♫ The sky loses its color ♫
♫ It's all the rain's fault ♫
♫ Can you stop for a while, just give a moment of clear sky ♫
♫ Love is an apple ♫
♫ Only after taking a bite did I know ♫
♫ That everything about the Garden of Eden ♫
♫ Is true ♫
Beautiful song!
I never expected you to sing along too. ♫ I want to be ♫
- I forgive you. - You belong to the same generation as my grandmother! ♫ the only one in your eyes ♫
You are the one in the same generation as her!
♫ Even if because of you ♫
♫ I would be banished to the far horizon one day ♫
♫ I want to be ♫
♫ the only person in your heart ♫
♫ Just for you, why fear the wind and rain ♫
Little Hu, ask Little Liu to come look for me at the clinic later.
Professor, we managed to open the door of the main burial chamber.
The main burial chamber should be located behind that huge stone door.
Get ready the equipment immediately. We will go down and rescue one batch of cultural relic first.
Yes, Teacher.
Inform Zhuang Rui and Feifei immediately.
Okay.
[ Excavation Site ]
Are you alright? Are you feeling stuffy again?
Are you okay?
Let's go.
This coffin is well preserved.
Looks like it has not been raided before. We are incredibly lucky.
Little Ren, please get ready. We are going to open the coffin in a while.
Yes, Teacher.
Little Hu and Little Li, please make an inventory of the items here.
- Yes. - Okay.
There's mercury inside.
Zhuang Rui!
- What's wrong with Zhuang Rui? - Zhuang Rui!
- What's wrong, Zhuang Rui?
What's going on?
He wasn't feeling so well when he first go into the tomb just now.
Professor Meng, why don't I bring him up first?
That's for the best. Leave all these here to us. Take good care of him.
Don't worry.
- Slowly. - Slowly. Be careful.
- Slowly, Little Zhuang. - Watch out for the steps.
Slowly.
You're awake!
Why are we out here?
Don't you remember anything?
You fainted in the tomb. The doctor has already checked you and she said you're alright, just suffering from lack of oxygen.
Lacking in oxygen?
Correct. This is the highland of Inner Mongolia.
Do you know what is altitude sickness now?
You can win at wrestling, but are still so weak.
From now, wake up in the morning and run round in circles with me. You need to train.
What are you looking for?
What is it?
Where's my notebook?
Is everything ready?
Ready.
Are you okay over here?
Teacher, we are all ready. Let's open the coffin.
What is this?
The structure of the coffin drawn by Zhuang Rui.
There's a sandwich layer?
How did he know about it?
I'm not so sure myself.
There won't be any danger, right?
Quite possibly.
Looking at the material and structure of the coffin,
it is possible there might be a sandwich layer.
Then, let's open it and take a look.
Okay. Hold these for me.
All of you stand back. Get ready to open the coffin.
Professor Meng! Professor Meng!
Speak.
There's mercury in the coffin. Do not open the coffin casually just like that.
Please make sure that you are wearing gas mask before you open the coffin.
No, I must go down and help.
No, no, no. The doctor says you need to rest more.
I am not lacking in oxygen at all.
There's poisonous gas inside.
I must help. If I don't help,
and they open the coffin casually with wearing any gas masks,
their lives would be in danger.
Little Hu, turn on the air monitor to monitor the air at all times.
Okay.
Zhuag Rui? Why are you not resting? Why have you come down?
Come, pass the gas masks to them.
Thank you.
Look.
Ancient people did seal coffins with the help of mercury.
Large amount of mercury that has been sealed in for many years
will vaporize the moment it comes into contact with the warm air.
This space is sealed, so, it is easy to get mercury poisoning.
Zhuang Rui, how did you come to the conclusion that there's a sandwich layer in the coffin?
I heard from Bagatur that
this patch of grassland did not manage to grow well all this while.
I suspect that when the underground water receded,
there was poisonous substances that could not be drained out.
But, I am not able to confirm what this poisonous substance is.
I never expect it to be mercury.
Little Li, bring the pump here.
Don't do that.
The pump will damage the coffin and the items in it.
Teacher, what should we do then?
We can only use tools to scoop it out bit by bit,
and then open the next coffin.
Okay.
- Zhuang Rui! - Zhuang Rui!
- What's happening?
- What happened to you? - Are you alright?
- Professor Meng, - Zhuang Rui!
- please be careful while you are in here. I'll bring him up first. - Are you okay?
- Okay! Okay! - I'll go up with you.
- Slowly. Slowly. - We can do it ourselves.
- Slowly. - Be careful. - Be careful.
Come, let's start scooping the mercury out from inside here.
Okay.
- I can't take it anymore! - Doctor!
What happened to him?
Wait a moment. Hold on to him.
I can't see anything at all!
Hold him down!
I can't hear anything at all!
Zhuang Rui, please calm down!
Doctor, is he going to be alright?
Hold him down. I'm going to give him an injection.
Okay.
Here, here, I'll do it.
Please calm down.
Hold him down.
Please calm down.
Wait a moment.
Why is he in such an agitated mood?
Did something or someone provoke him?
I don't know.
There shouldn't be any.
Before this, has he ever fainted?
Our conditions are very simple here. This is all the equipment we have.
When you get back to Beijing, he has to go for a check up in the big hospital.
Doctor, what are we going to do now?
Let me stabilize his condition first.
I don't have all the equipment. It's going to be a little troublesome.
Then, do you know where I can get the medicine? I'll go now.
I'll write a prescription for you.
Go to the clinic at the pasture district. They should have the medicine there.
Okay.
Cover him with the blanket.
Feifei! Feifei!
Where are you going?
I'm going to the pasture district.
I'll go with you.
No need. I know the way.
Target is coming near you.
The two of you be sharp about your work.
Kill her!
Friend, what's the matter?
Friend,
where are you from? And where are you going to?
I came from the Wuqi Mountains. I'm on my way to the pasture district.
But, I think I lost my way. Which way to the pasture district?
That being the case, look,
follow this road all the way and you'll get to the pasture district.
Thank you.
Wait!
Friend, this is a dangerous place.
Wild wolves often haunt this place. Why don't I lead the way for you.
No need. I'll be fine.
Goodbye! Goodbye!
Are you alright?
I'm okay. What are you doing here?
I was on the high ground outside the tomb when I saw a vehicle.
It doesn't belong to the archaeological team.
If I don't lead the way, it is not possible for anyone to get there.
They really did come after us.
How's your hand?
I'm alright.
Who are these people?
Just some small-time tugs.
Small-time tugs? You are also not an assistant.
Right?
Can you help me with something?
Keep an eye on these two fellows.
The car has broken down. I'll go and get help from the pasture district.
You're injured. It's better if I went.
I'm fine. Have to trouble you now.
You're worth to be the girl I fancy!
Like her!
Slowly. 1, 2, 3!
This...
Why isn't there any skeleton inside?
Seal it up first.
When we have finished excavating,
- we will research it. - Okay.
Slowly.
- Here, take it. - Give us a hand.
- Doctor, is he better? - He's much more stable.
I've collected the medicine.
- What happened to your hand? - Nothing.
What do you mean, "nothing"?
I'll bandage it for you first.
Be careful!
He's your boyfriend, right?
You're so good to him.
You have to observe him more.
- Thank you, Doctor. - It's alright.
Thank you so much for your help this time.
- It's alright. - Thank you.
Are you interested in me at all?
You...
Actually...
Feifei!
Xiao Yu, are you looking for me?
I'm going to visit Xiao Rui. How is he?
He wasn't feeling so well when he went into the tomb today. I'll bring you to visit him.
- Is it that serious? - Yes.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
- Brother Bagatur, I— - Brother Bagatur,
please rest early today.
Miao Feifei, do you know that your acting is too fake?
What acting?
You are using me as a shield.
Please don't think that I can't see through your ruse.
This herdsman is quite sincere.
When he likes you, he doesn't hide it or keep quiet about it.
I think it is quite good to be like that.
If you have something to say, but keep it inside and don't say it,
you'll feel even worse in your heart.
Feifei,
I feel that in this trip to the grassland, the feelings between you and Zhang Rui
is not the same anymore.
Don't ponder blindly over this.
I could see that when you allow Zhuang Rui to go in,
you were actually very worried about him.
If he refuses to listen to me,
and delay even a bit in coming up, he would be dead by now.
I never imagined that there are such a wide range of jade objects.
Different era, places of origin,
and most importantly, there's so much difference in the prices.
I really don't know how Zhuang Rui manages to differentiate them.
You really don't want it?
The phone is going to explode from ringing soon. Why didn't anyone hear it?
We're too absorbed in our learning. We didn't hear it ringing just now.
Peng Fei, we're talking about you! All you care about is eating! Look how angry you made our Jiajia?
It's Feifei. She's looking for you.
Okay, Please sit down.
Please start eating. There's some drinks here.
- Answer the phone quickly. - Please start eating.
Hello?
Police Officer Feifei! Why are you calling me?
You are now eating the fat lamb of the grassland, and drinking the pollutant-free pure cow milk.
Why do you still have time to send greetings to friends like us who are living in a difficult place?
Something bad happened to Zhuang Rui.
Huh? What happened to Zhuang Rui?
He has been unwell during the whole trip to the grassland this time.
Did he have any old illness in the past?
Illness? He doesn't smoke or drink.
What illness would he have? He doesn't have any illness.
But, he fainted suddenly today when we went down into the tomb.
Later, his eyes were unwell. He had tinnitus too.
What? Are you trying to frighten me?
Is it serious? No, why don't Peng Fei and I make a trip there now?
There's no need. He is better now.
When he is stabilized, I'll bring him back to Beijing as soon as possible.
Okay, okay. Please keep in contact.
Okay. Bye.
What was that? What happened?
She said Zhuang Rui fell sick. He fainted.
Was it like what happened in Myanmar last time?
It sounded more serious than that.
Why is Zhuang Rui always causing us to worry about him?
But, Feifei is around this time. It shouldn't be anything serious, right?
Say, why don't we go to Inner Mongolia now?
Don't. We'll take about it when Zhuang Rui is better.
Come, let's eat.
Teacher, the transport and insurance teams are here.
Good. We'll complete our excavation today.
Okay.
This way please.
This is our excavation site.
They are doing survey mapping.
Your progress is quite fast. You have already started on mapping.
From the looks of it, it isn't very special at all.
It's different from what I imagined it to be.
Do you feel that it's not mysterious anymore at all?
I thought that archaeologists are like adventurers.
You can go up to Heaven, or down to Hades. But, it doesn't look to be so at all.
This is how archaeologists look like on a normal day.
We excavate this area because we want to bring the cultural relics up from under the ground.
This is for research in future.
Please make sure you match this well.
Please be accurate.
Teacher, this is the inventory for the first batch of cultural relics. Please look through it.
Okay.
- Feifei, please bring Bagatur around the place. - Okay.
Please take a look.
Let's go.
We have made a proper record of everything.
When we went down the tomb to investigate the first time,
we did not find any jade items that are similar to the previous jade figurine.
I never expected that we still did not find any after the excavation is completed.
Isn't this too strange?
Could it be we are looking for it in the wrong direction?
Perhaps, this tomb
is not the one that we are looking for.
I think that's an item from the tomb that is related to the jade figurine.
- What is that? - What is that?
The jade chessboard.
- That's right! - That's right!
Previously, in that coffin sealed in mercury,
even though the corpse of the owner of the tomb was not found inside,
we found a jade chessboard instead.
The jade quality of this jade chessboard is very similar to the jade figurine.
I think the two of them could be related.
Little Ren, are there still any clues now
that can point to the identity of the owner of the tomb?
This time, the cultural relics that are unearthed
are in a similar situation as those we found in the tomb of Qi Yuan previously in Gansu.
The cultural relics unearthed are not from the same era,
but, in the Qi Yuan tomb, there were still records of Qi Yuan's
interests and hobbies before he passed away.
And, in this tomb, there are no records at all.
Professor Meng, is this a common situation?
I have never seen such a tomb before. It is really too strange.
Let's go down and take a look.
Okay. Slowly, Teacher.
Slowly.
Come.
Teacher, I'm sure we got the direction wrong.
We wasted some much time and energy
just because we wanted to investigate the origin of a jade figurine.
This is really not worth it.
Tell me then, what is worth it?
If even archaeologists like us
are unwilling to take on this kind of stupid work to clarify the matter,
how many cultural relics of the country would continue to be robbed?
I understand all these reasons.
But, whether it's from the results of the metal detection test,
or from the excavation,
we did not manage to get any new clues.
Little Gu, what are your thoughts on this matter?
I think this jade chessboard and the jade figurine that was discovered earlier
have a possibility of more than 80% chance
of coming from the same tomb.
But, Doctor Ren is right. This could just be purely a coincident.
There is not corpse in the coffin,
only a jade chessboard.
What does it really mean?
Professor.
Can I take a few minutes of your time?
Can the two of you please go out? I will consider about that matter further.
- Okay. - Okay.
Please come in.
What is it? Is there anything else?
Nothing. Nothing.
Let's go.
What? You were attacked?
- Are you alright? - It's nothing serious.
Do you know who is behind this?
My police colleagues are helping to investigate now, but there's not outcome yet.
I think that if they are targeting me alone, there is no need to wait until I'm here at the grassland before they take action.
Perhaps, the item we are looking for is also something they wanted.
Professor Meng, I did not tell you this earlier because I didn't want everyone to feel confused and flustered.
I have already asked for police support.
I believe that this group of men will not take any obvious action in the immediate future.
But, this tomb is really a bit strange.
We need to continue with our search.
The group of people are at the same time related to the Qi Yuan tomb case in Gansu.
And they should be looking for something that is more valuable.
But, this jade chessboard alone is unable to reveal the identity of the tomb owner.
There must be other clues in the vicinity.
This matter must not be delayed. We will arranged for a new round of exploration tomorrow morning.
Okay.
Go! Go!
Who's that trying to create trouble?
What is it? What do you want?
Why are you so angry? Lost again, right?
Say, you are busy with work outside.
I am at home the whole day playing games with a group of primary school students.
I'm beginning to understand now.
You keep arguing for the work load of primary school students to be reduced. Actually, it's not necessary at all.
What are you laughing at?
What is it? Tell me quickly.
It's a serious matter, Grandfather. I'm going to send a photo to you. Please take a look at it.
Okay. I'll get my glasses.
So, you don't need to wear glasses when you play games?
You depend on consciousness to play games. Do you know that?
You're wasting your vision when you wear this thing.
Speak. What is it?
We have already located the tomb, and have completed the excavation work.
What did you discovered?
Grandfather, I have always that that
those stories about tomb raiders are not true.
But, this time, I found out that
ancient people really thought of all kinds of method in order to keep tomb robbers out.
You really got it right this time.
Although it is not as incredible as what is described in some stories,
there are different kinds of knowledge behind it.
Look, they are from different era and places. Different people are buried in them.
The mechanisms in the tombs are also different. Do you understand now?
Oh right. We encountered something strange this time.
Although we opened the coffin,
we did not discover the corpse of the owner of the tomb in it.
Only this jade chessboard.
Hold it up for me to look at.
Turn over to the other side.
Did you make any other discoveries?
The material of the jade chessboard and that of the jade figurine that was discovered earlier
are basically the same. Their era are also a good match.
Professor Meng is also baffled.
If only a jade chessboard is found in the burial chamber,
there must be some mysterious principle behind it.
It is possible there are other hidden burial chambers that you did not discover.
Hidden burial chambers?
This is a real possibility.
Do not be in a hurry to come to any conclusion.
If the conditions permit, I suggest that you do another round of test.
Okay. I will suggest this to Professor Meng now.
Wait a moment.
How is Zhuang Rui?
Zhuang Rui? He's not so good.
No, wait! What do you mean by "not so good"?
