Chapter 6 Chapter Five Forbidden Words

Yuan Sen's hand holding the gun trembled a little. He didn't know whether it was because of the excitement of the unexpected discovery, or the fear of the mysterious person."Is all the facilities under the glacier part of the 'Grey Cat Project'?" he asked. The mysterious man's Adam's apple twitched, making a sound of wood hitting, and said, "Yes!" "What is your purpose?" "Hey, this is a secret, you have no right to know." The mysterious man's gaze was still slack, and the expression on his face was still stiff.He didn't move his skin when he spoke, only his Adam's apple could be seen moving.

The blood on the mysterious man's chest seemed to never stop, and he didn't care. All this proved that he was not a normal person. The mysterious person said: "This is my territory, you can't compete with me. Get out of the way quickly, I have to go back to the office to deal with business." Yuan Sen's heart lit up.The mysterious man stepped through the threshold, pushed aside the crowd blocking the door, and entered the inner iron room.Several people were holding guns, but no one dared to pull the trigger, and no one shot to stop it.The words of the mysterious man seemed to suck their souls out, and they needed a long time to think and react.

The mysterious man walked to the corner of the iron house, pressed the switch, and the light in the small iron house turned on, still with a yellow and faint light. This kind of light shines on anything, giving people a vague feeling, as if these It's all untrue. The mysterious man walked up to a pile of old machines, fiddled with them, and those seemingly useless machines started rumbling.A machine like a large iron box was emitting white smoke, like a steam engine blowing air.Standing in the middle of the white smoke, the mysterious man looked more and more strange and terrifying. The mysterious man looked at the machines running crazily, and for the first time had an expression.The flesh on his face twitched, and he said with a sinister smile, "The 'Grey Cat Project'—'Grey Cat Project'—has finally been launched successfully, Mr. Sheng, I wish Wantong the best of luck, and finally completed your account task—”

Yuan Sen and the others stared at this lunatic in astonishment.Yuan Sen didn't know what he did, and he didn't know what serious consequences these broken machines would have. The thick white smoke filled the small iron house, making him feel like he was in a dream, and it wasn't real. The mysterious man walked to the corner of the iron house, pushed open another iron door, and was about to lift his legs to enter when suddenly there was a gunshot, followed by several more gunshots, and the four guns were fired in turn, smashing the mysterious man's head. The body leaned against the porch and slowly fell down.

There was a rumbling sound outside. It was the sound of water hitting the dam. The iron house shook for a while, and they couldn't stand still. They didn't know what happened outside. Ai Kailamu ran out of the iron house, and came back like a whirlwind, yelling: "The big thing is not good, the water in the river has risen, and it has overflowed the river bank, and the outside is like the sea, and you can't see the river bank." Everyone rushed out of the inclined wall upon hearing the words, the downstream of the river became a vast ocean, and the upstream water was rising at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the water surged out from the gate of the dam, making a loud noise.

Wang Huidao: "The dam is still more than ten meters high. The water will not overflow for the time being. The downstream must be flooded." Old Burke was shocked, "What about the warriors in the clan? Kangbasa, we have to go back and save them." Wang Huidao: "From the perspective of the channel structure, its main function is to drain water. The downstream of the river channel is shallow and low, level with the river bank. It is likely to be a drainage transition zone, so it is easy to be submerged. The iron furnace in the outer cave is also the 'Grey Cat Project' Part of it, when the Kuomintang designed it, it is impossible not to consider the current situation, they must have designed a good drainage channel, the iron furnace will not be flooded, and your warriors will have no problems."

Hearing what Wang Hui said, Old Burke felt more at ease.They waited for a long time by the water waves, and the water gradually calmed down, neither rising nor falling, and they returned to the iron house.The small iron room was filled with the stench of the mysterious man and the strong smell of blood, which was very pungent. As soon as Ekailam entered, he couldn't help but vomit, and Wang Hui also vomited twice. Yuan Sen and Kang Basa moved the body away, and the machines in the room were still running loudly.Ai Kaila pushed open the door of the third iron house, and the light from outside shone into the iron house, and the vague outline inside could be seen. It was a simple office.

Yuan Sen turned on the flashlight and took a general picture of the office.Inside were iron file racks, a writing desk, a wooden bed and some stools, and a military uniform hung on a hanger beside the wooden bed.All the furnishings in the office were covered with thick dust. The dust on the ground was as thick as a finger, and if people stepped on it, they would leave a deep footprint. Sure enough, no one had entered it for half a century. The desk was made of iron, and Yuan Sen brushed off the dust, revealing the work schedule and a few drawings pasted on the desk.Due to the age, the drawing has turned gray-yellow, but the lines and writing on it are still clear.

Yuan Sen picked up the drawing and flipped through it a few times, but couldn't understand the lines and labels, so he passed it to Wang Hui.Wang Hui is an engineer, so she must be familiar with these things, and she has learned extensively, and she is very proficient in Xinjiang folk customs. Some of the knowledge she knows is advanced in the world. pass. Wang Hui looked at the drawings and said, "These are the construction drawings of the 'Grey Cat Project'. Their purpose is incredible, no, it's sensational!" "How to say?" When Yuan Sen heard the purpose of the "Grey Cat Project", his heart moved.Half a century ago, when the Anti-Japanese War was at its most difficult, the Kuomintang spent so much manpower and material resources on the "Grey Cat Project", its purpose must be earth-shattering, right?

Wang Huidao: "The markings on the drawings are in Russian, and these drawings should be provided by Russia. A large part of the work of the 'Grey Cat Project' is to erect twelve-story iron furnaces. What we have seen are only two of the twelve-story iron furnaces." It’s just a layer. They built hundreds of iron furnaces under the glacier to melt the big ice in the mountain, with a radius of more than 300 meters.” Wang Hui showed everyone a circular section. There was a small circle in the middle of the section. I don't know what it was. There was a line of Russian markings beside the small circle.

Wang Huidao: "A transliterated word in Russian is called Hambar Ata." Yuan Sen read the drawings in detail according to Wang Hui's instructions, and he understood a little bit in his heart.The so-called "gray cat project" is to build large iron furnaces under the glacier, and the three layers of the furnace are filled with coal. Each iron furnace has a heat transmission pipe with a radius of half a meter.Each transmission pipe has a different attachment point on the rocky ice, and they are attached to the surface of the ice like contacts. Yuan Sen and the others are located in the innermost layer of the twelve-story iron furnace. The cave on this floor not only has a large number of iron furnaces, but also has a well-structured drainage channel. After the big ice melts, it is discharged along the river channel without leaking. After several large water level drops, powerful energy is generated, and high-efficiency electricity is generated through the generator set hidden in the dam. Most of the twelve-story caves were dug on the basis of the original cracks in the mountain. The iron stove in the innermost layer needs to be ignited manually. After the ignition is successful, the outer layer of the glacier melts in a very short time, and a huge The water flow is used to drive the generator of the river dam unit to work and generate electric energy, and then use the electric energy to automatically ignite the peripheral eleven-layer iron furnace. The large ice melted. There are many caves in the mountain to store coal, and an automatic push device is installed. When the coal in the iron furnace is consumed to a certain extent, the automatic push device will push the coal into the iron furnace through the pipeline, so that the iron furnace continues to generate super high heat to melt the coal. A block of ice with a radius of more than 300 meters. After reading the drawings, Yuan Sen suddenly became suspicious. The "Grey Cat Project" he knew was Zhang Qian's experience in the Western Regions. Many doubts revolved around Zhang Qian. Dr. Tian's confidential information was completely different from this "Grey Cat Project". Different, which one is the real "Grey Cat Project"? Wang Hui cleaned off the dust on the desk, revealing a thick piece of glass with three black and white group photos pressed under it.There are many stains on the photos. What is surprising is that Zhu Wantong is included in the three group photos, and Zhu Wantong in the photos is about the same age as Zhu Wantong who just died.This discovery was like a bolt from the blue, and Yuan Sen was completely taken aback. The evidence was in front of him, and there was no doubt that this Zhu Wantong was really a lieutenant colonel of the Kuomintang half a century ago. He gradually figured out the context of the matter. The Kuomintang painstakingly created the "Grey Cat Project" to open the tomb of Hambar Ata, which was sealed in the glacier.For some reason, before the launch of the "Grey Cat Project", all the engineering personnel of the Kuomintang died mysteriously, and the plan failed.Half a century later, Zhu Wantong returned to the Tomb of God and successfully launched the plan.What is puzzling is that everyone else is dead, why can Zhu Wantong escape?After going out, why did he come back after half a century? After the "Grey Cat Project" was launched, it took three days and three nights for the flood in the river to stop, and the roaring machines in the iron house automatically stopped after the water level dropped.Yuan Sen knew that the stoppage of the machine meant that the glaciers covering Hambar Ata's tomb had been successfully melted, and the secret was about to be discovered. Yuan Sen and the others walked out of the iron house and saw that the water in the upper reaches of the river gradually dried up. A black figure was running towards the depths of the river at an extremely fast speed. Yuan Sen immediately woke up and shouted: "Who is it?" He made the worst plan. With the speed that the man was running, only monsters like Zhu Wantong could fight him, and nine out of ten monsters were Zhu Wantong's accomplices. Yuan Sen was about to raise his gun, when old Burke suddenly shouted excitedly: "Don't shoot—I saw it, it's Little Snow Leopard—" Yuan Sen took a picture of the thing with his flashlight, and it turned out to be a little snow leopard. It was so fast that it jumped onto the river bank in a short time and jumped into the arms of old Burke.Old Burke held the little Snow Leopard in his arms and stroked it for a while, almost weeping with joy, and said: "Little Snow Leopard, where have you been, where have you been, and you don't want to say hello when you leave?" When they fought with Zhu Wantong, they didn't notice Little Snow Leopard at all.After they shot Zhu Wantong, there was only the rushing river outside the iron house. Where was the shadow of the little snow leopard? The little snow leopard was very excited to see the old Burke. It put its dirty plum blossom paws on the old Burke's shoulders and soiled the old Burke's expensive leather jacket, but the old Burke didn't care. After the little snow leopard calmed down, the old Burke announced: "The little snow leopard has been found. What I am most worried about now is whether my warriors will escape. I must go back." Yuan Sen wanted to find the unsealed tomb of the god Hambar Ata. Old Burke's request was reasonable, and he couldn't refuse. Wang Hui suddenly winked at him, and he couldn't help being taken aback.The little snow leopard circled around the old Burke, and suddenly barked a few times towards the upper reaches of the river bank. There was a reply from a distance, and a long team of snow leopards came out of the darkness. Behind the group of snow leopards were the warriors of Old Burke. When they saw Old Burke, they happily danced the special dance of the tribe.Yuan Sen immediately understood the purpose of Wang Hui's winking at him. It turned out that she had already discovered that there was someone upstream.He glanced at Wang Hui, who nodded and walked aside. After hearing the explanations from the warriors, everyone knew that during the flood discharge, the little snow leopard quietly went downstream. With its keen sense of smell, it found its companions and took them to the upper reaches of the river bank to avoid the flood. This time, even Ai Kailam looked at the little snow leopard with admiration. He patted the little snow leopard on the head and scolded with a smile: "Little beast, your head is really not simple, even Master Ai admires it so much." The little snow leopard let out a cry, as gentle as a cat, and slipped away from Ai Kailamu. The warriors of the tribe were immersed in the excitement of being reborn after the catastrophe. Yuan Sen suddenly realized that something was wrong. He said to Kang Basa, "Why is Chen Laohei missing?" Kang Basa glanced at the crowd, and his face changed drastically. He grabbed a small boss and asked, "Did you lose Chen Laohei?" The little boss hesitated for a while before Yuan Sen understood that Chen Laohei killed two people with his hidden pistol while the guards were not paying attention, and then escaped through the secret passage. The little leader said: "We came upstream with Little Snow Leopard, firstly to avoid the flood, and secondly because Little Snow Leopard smelled Chen Laohei's scent, we came to find him." When Yuan Sen heard this sentence, he immediately understood, and said: "What Chen Laohei said before is all false, and his goal is the tomb of God Hambar Ata." When Combasa reported the situation to his father, old Burke was furious, counted the number of people immediately, and chased up the river bank.Yuan Sen heaved a sigh of relief. Entering the tomb of the gods would touch the taboo of old Burke. The Chen Laohei incident gave them a legitimate excuse to enter the tomb of the gods. The contradictions and twists and turns in the middle can be omitted. After they had advanced a few hundred meters, the river bank became winding and winding, with mountain slopes, cliffs and rocky pits.It took almost half a day for everyone to find the entrance to Hambar Ata's tomb - a vertical hole with the hole facing upwards. The vertical cave protrudes into the mountain at a slanting height. There are many stone ridges in the cave, and there are many grooves, which are convenient for people to climb and use their strength.The vertical cave has a lot of space, and the snow leopards are agile, and they can crawl in the cave much faster than humans.The snow leopard group took the lead in front, and everyone followed behind. In the depths of the vertical cave, some unmelted residual ice is attached to the cave wall. There are many horizontally staggered caves in the middle of the vertical cave, and metal pipes can be seen everywhere in the cave.Yuan Sen guessed that those pipes were the heat transmission pipes erected by the "Grey Cat Project". The depth of the vertical hole was filled with a large amount of high-temperature gas. Yuan Sen was so tired that he was sweating, and his whole body felt as if he had been scorched by a fire. He felt extremely uncomfortable.The residual ice in the groove and horizontal hole melted quickly, and a piece of ice as big as an adult disappeared in the blink of an eye, which is extremely miraculous.Yuan Sen secretly admired the designer of the "Grey Cat Project". This project seems crazy, but the actual operation is extremely precise. After restarting after half a century, it can still melt the ice without leaving any traces. The crowd crawled through the vertical hole for more than an hour before they found the exit. Yuan Sen was exhausted and sweated all over after climbing out of the vertical hole. Kangbasa and Aikaila couldn't feel well either. At the exit of the vertical cave is a rock platform. The stone platform protrudes from the side of the mountain. It is only about ten meters wide from the mountain wall. Below the platform is an abyss. With a flashlight, you can see the light blue glacier in the depths. Yuan Sen sized it up and was immediately disappointed. He said, "Why is it a dead end? Did we go wrong?" Wang Hui pointed the flashlight towards the front and said, "Look at the stone bridge over there. The stone bridge connects to the mountain on the opposite side, and you can pass the cliff through the stone bridge." The stone bridge is on the side of the stone platform, tens of meters apart, and the angle is very hidden. After Wang Hui pointed out, Yuan Sen noticed that there was a natural cliff between the stone bridge and the stone platform, and there was no way to walk across it.He shone the flashlight on the abyss under the stone platform, and immediately his hairs stood on his head. There was no way to estimate how deep the abyss was, and a person would be smashed to pieces if he fell. Yuan Sen was basically desperate for this situation.Wang Huidao: "Have you ever thought about it? Our tracking route is correct. Chen Laohei's breath is cut off here. He must have a way to get on the stone bridge." Wang Hui's reasoning was very logical, and Yuan Sen was puzzled. There was no connection between Shitai and Shiqiao. Chen Laohei was even worse than him, so how could he survive the natural danger?Could he still fly there? He quickly found the answer on the mountain wall on the side of the stone platform. There is a row of grooves on the mountain wall. The grooves are so small that people can almost step on them.Those grooves are arranged chaotically, and each distance is different. Some of them have been eroded by the wind, and they look very fragile. It is really a trifling matter for people to borrow strength from them.Yuan Sen himself didn't dare to step through these grooves, let alone others. After checking the groove, Kang Basa was very confident, and said to everyone: "Crossing this natural danger is nothing compared to our usual training subjects. Dad, I will go to explore the road first, and you can come if you don't mind." Yuan Sen knew very well that the danger of the natural danger of the stone wall does not lie in the terrain, but in whether the groove is strong. If it collapses, people will definitely not be able to live.Kang Basa tightened his backpack, stuck his hands in the two grooves, and climbed away from the stone platform with his body close to the mountain wall. The strong wind under the cliff blew his animal skin jacket, and the down on the jacket was blown up. , Everyone stared at his movements, sweating in their hearts. It took him nearly 20 minutes to climb onto the stone bridge, and the hearts of everyone's throats dropped.Ai Kailam admired Kangbasa so much that he applauded first, and everyone on the stone platform was infected by Kangbasa and applauded one after another. Kang Basa checked the stone bridge, squatted down and picked up a bunch of stones, put them in his bag, took out a rope and hung it around his waist, turned over and got off the stone bridge, and climbed back along the groove. Yuan Sen was startled, and shouted loudly: "Kangbasa, what are you doing, why are you back?" Kang Basa said: "I'll help you come here." He stuffed the stone into the groove of the stone wall, and the stone blocked the gap in the groove, and then threaded the rope through it in a row, and finally fixed the rope firmly on the stone wall.Yuan Sen touched Wang Hui and said, "Do you know what he is doing?" Wang Hui watched Kangbasa's actions intently, and suddenly came to his senses, and said: "He is imitating a training subject in our army, called a rope ladder, which is to fix ropes on places like mountain walls to train mountaineering." Kang Basa pulled the rope from the stone bridge to the stone platform, tied a knot, and then demonstrated, climbing the rope to the stone bridge.He waved to the people on the opposite side, beckoning them to come over. Yuan Sen slid down the stone platform and pulled the rope. It was very strong, and it was much easier to climb like this than to go through the groove. He quickly got on the stone bridge.Soon, more than 20 people used this method to climb the stone bridge. Finally, it was Old Burke's turn. He patted the heads of a group of snow leopards reluctantly, hugged their necks, and whispered something to them. Then he climbed down the stone platform, using both hands and feet, and quickly climbed up. stone bridge. Old Burke was very reluctant to part with those snow leopards. He turned his head and glanced at the stone platform, waved at them, and followed the others.The little snow leopard followed his example and waved its paws, its eyes were gloomy, and suddenly jumped up and quickly jumped into the natural barrier, everyone was shocked, they didn't expect the little snow leopard to do this. The little snow leopard climbed onto the rope, jumped over like lightning, and jumped onto the stone bridge in a short time.Yuan Sen was dumbfounded. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that a snow leopard could cross a cliff tens of meters high with just a rope. With the opening of the little snow leopard, the other snow leopards also jumped onto the rope at an extremely fast speed, and they climbed onto the stone platform in a few vertical leaps.Except for an old snow leopard that stumbled and fell off the cliff, the other snow leopards managed to get on the stone bridge. A dozen or so snow leopards looked at their companions who were falling fast, and let out screams. The screams were extremely shrill, and there was a huge echo in the empty space, making everyone feel uncomfortable. Everyone crossed the stone bridge and found a majestic mountain in front of them. The stone bridge ran through the mountain, and after exiting the mountain, a huge palace suddenly appeared. Standing in front of the palace, everyone was immediately overwhelmed by its aura. The palace was like a towering mountain, and people became extremely small in front of it. As soon as he saw the palace, Yuan Sen remembered what Chen Laohei said. The employer asked him to find a temple instead of a god's tomb. The palace in front of him proves that this place is indeed not like a tomb.He stopped the old Burke who was passing by him, and said, "Lord Burke, I think this is a palace or a temple, not a tomb?" Old Burke said: "I don't know much about the tomb of the gods. It is a taboo in the clan. You must be careful when you enter the tomb, and don't disturb God Hambar Ata." Yuan Sen nodded. They walked along the stone bridge to the steps in front of the palace. The steps were so high that they looked like they were ascending to the sky when they looked up. It took them a lot of energy to climb the stone steps in front of the palace. Ice cubes that haven't melted yet.These ice piles are more than 20 meters high and more than ten meters low.Everyone passed through the ice pile and saw the huge palace. The palace is very simple, far less exquisite and beautiful than the pavilions of the Han and Tang Dynasties. Its construction relies more on the outline of the natural mountain, and then it is artificially polished.The palace has tall stone doors and windows, and there are reliefs of strange beasts on the walls. Yuan Sen carefully checked the contents of the reliefs, but none of them could understand them. The snow leopards went up the steps, jumped to the edge of the palace gate, suddenly became very irritable, jumping up and down, as if they were about to jump in. Burke said: "Snow Leopard senses something, go and open the door." Yuan Sen and Kang Basa pushed open the stone door with all their strength, and the door only opened a crack, and the snow leopards filed in through the crack, disappearing in the blink of an eye. Yuan Sen and the others entered the palace, and what they saw were rows and rows of huge ice, as if the entire palace had been frozen, with transparent blue cubes of ice everywhere. The cry of the snow leopard came from the depths of the palace, and everyone searched for the sound, and found the dozen or so snow leopards in the middle of the maze-like cube of ice. They were jumping up and down around a piece of dark blue ice. Yuan Sen walked around a few blocks of ice before he could see clearly what had happened, his face suddenly changed, and he almost bit his tongue.A group of snow leopards surrounded a man, that man's face was distorted, his hands were desperately digging something in his stomach, he seemed to be in extreme pain, his hands were bleeding profusely, but he refused to give up, half of his hands were inserted into his stomach. His face was severely disfigured and could not be recognized, but Yuan Sen was very familiar with his attire, and this person was Chen Laohei. Chen Laohei screamed desperately, and the hand inserted into his stomach dragged out one of his intestines.He tied a meter-long intestine around his waist and tied a knot. Once the knot was finished, he tilted his head and died. Yuan Sen was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were splitting. He thought he was dreaming, but there were dozens of pairs of eyes staring at him, so there was no way it could be fake.Chen Laohei was not killed by an invisible beast, but committed suicide. All the corpses they found along the way committed suicide in this way.The animal tooth marks on their stomachs were nothing more than self-picked marks. Yuan Sen had made countless speculations about this method of death, but he never thought that it was just a way of suicide.They found hundreds of corpses along the way, and they died in exactly the same way, but they committed suicide at different times and in different places. This reality completely subverted his way of thinking, and he couldn't understand it at all.Chen Laohei's death was the bloodiest and most horrific death he had ever seen in his life. He couldn't help but think of Ling Chi's torture in ancient times. Yuan Sen squatted in front of Chen Laohei's corpse. The blood hole on his stomach was still bleeding, and there was a big puddle of blood around him.The strong smell of blood made Yuan Sen a little sick, and he heard the screams and vomiting of the crowd behind him.The gorgeous palace immediately became extremely strange after being smelled of blood.Yuan Sen looked at Chen Laohei's fearful expression, and his heart was filled with gloom. Wang Hui checked Chen Laohei's body, and Yuan Sen watched her carefully examine the wound, and said, "How is it?" Wang Huidao: "It's ridiculous. He committed suicide. Hundreds of people died of suicide. I really can't believe my eyes." Yuan Sen shook his head. He believed that everyone present suspected that he was wrong. Chen Laohei's suicide completely subverted their normal logical thinking.It is acceptable for one person to commit suicide in this way, but it is really unacceptable for hundreds of people to commit suicide in the same way for more than half a century.What reason can explain this strange phenomenon? Old Burke sighed: "This is God's curse, God's punishment for those who trespassed on God's tomb, no one can escape." Old Burke's words were like a blow to Yuan Sen, and the only explanation he could accept was this. When they crossed the snow line, Combasa relayed what Old Burke was worried about, and it turned out to be this.Old Burke tried his best to emphasize the taboo of God Hambar Ata along the way. It turned out that it was not a superstition, but a lesson left by their ancestors for thousands of years. The snow leopards jumped up and down around Chen Laohei's body.Yuan Sen noticed that they intentionally separated the corpse from them. When Wang Hui inspected the corpse, they tried their best to prevent Wang Hui from touching the corpse. She could only watch but not touch it.They were even more careful, and did not touch the corpse when they jumped. Yuan Sen thought to himself, could there be something wrong with the corpse? He got a little closer, and the leader of the snow leopard immediately howled, his hair stood on end, obviously irritated. Yuan Sen moved closer, and the snow leopards formed a wall to stop him.Yuan Sen's mind gradually became clearer. There must be something wrong with Chen Laohei's corpse, otherwise Snow Leopard would not be able to prevent him from touching the corpse.Suddenly, Wang Hui exclaimed, "There is something wrong with the piece of blue ice behind the corpse." Wang Hui walked around the group of snow leopards and walked to a piece of blue ice cube behind the corpse. Others followed with flashlights. It turned out that there was a corpse in the blue cube of ice.The corpse was facing Yuan Sen. When he saw the corpse's face clearly, his heart sank.The corpse had long blond hair, more than half of its face was covered by beard and hair, it looked very hideous, and its eyes were as cold as a living person's. It was obviously a big discovery, and everyone gathered around.Old Burke lay on the ice cube and stared at the corpse for a while, then suddenly knelt down on the ground, kowtowed desperately, and said: "Great God Hambar-Ata, your descendant Hassan led the people to drive away those who trespassed on the tomb of God. I just disturbed you, I hope to get your forgiveness." Hassan Old Burke's people also knelt down and kowtowed.It turned out that the corpse in the blue ice cube was the god Hambar Ata, the ancestor of old Burke.Yuan Sen immediately thought of the mural at the foot of the Flame Mountain, and the person on the mural was the person in Cube Ice. A corner of the ice cube was smashed open, and the corner of the corpse's clothes was pulled out.There is a dagger next to the opening, which belongs to Chen Laohei.The dagger was thrown next to Cube Ice, and Chen Laohei's body was seven or eight meters away. Yuan Sen concluded that Chen Laohei had pried a hole in Cube Ice to get the body out, but in the end he pried a small hole, and he came out. problem. At this time, Chen Laohei could not have had a motive for suicide. He was full of joy in finding God Hambar-Ata, so how could he commit suicide?Looking at the people who died along the way, which one would have a suicide motive?All of them committed suicide, and were manipulated to complete self-torture rituals, and the person who manipulated them was obviously this corpse that had been placed for more than a thousand years. Yuan Sen believed that there was no problem with his conjecture. This conclusion made him extremely terrified. A corpse that had been placed for thousands of years killed all the people who broke into the glacier for half a century. Can this not be scary? Yuan Sen took out his dagger and wanted to pick out a piece of clothes from Cube Ice, but Hassan Burke forced him to stop him. He pointed at Chen Laohei's body and said angrily, "You still move around, see what will happen to him. Don't move anything here, otherwise no one will be able to save you, this is the holy place of God." Yuan Sen had no choice but to withdraw the dagger.Wang Hui walked around behind the cube of ice alone, and was drawing something quickly on the paper facing the back of the corpse.Yuan Sen felt strange, so he went around, but saw that the clothes on the back of the corpse were all torn off, revealing the dark skin, which was covered with lines, like a picture. The skin was peeled off, exposing the frozen meat, which looked extremely disgusting. Wang Hui quickly finished copying the drawing on the corpse's back, and then put the drawing back into the bag.Yuan Sen said: "Assistant Wang, what kind of picture is on his back?" Wang Huidao: "It's a very important picture. It is the purpose of our search for the tomb of God." Yuan Sen's blood rushed to his brain, and he was shocked: "Is that a map?" Wang Hui nodded and said, "Yes, the human skin map we found in the underground space of the Flame Mountain was torn from him, and if you add that map, there will be a complete map on his back." Yuan Sen asked anxiously, "Then do you understand?" Wang Hui shook her head and said: "No, I can only judge that it is a map. There are many differences between the map of a thousand years ago and our current map. If you want to go back to Urumqi, ask an expert to analyze it." Yuan Sen nodded, feeling a lot more relaxed. After all, the purpose of this expedition has been achieved. He thought of Professor Yang Jian, and thought of where the professor went to Lop Nur with the mysterious iron box. Could this map allow him to revisit the situation? Find the professor and solve the mystery that has been hidden in his mind for a long time? Old Burke led his clansmen to kneel in front of the blue ice cube for a long time. After getting up, he said to Yuan Sen: "You are my friends, and I will not hide from you—" He pointed at Chen Laohei's bow like a prawn. Corpse, said: "His death was because he desecrated the holy body of God Hambar Ata. God was very angry and punished him, so you must be careful." Old Burke's meaning was obvious. He warned Yuan Sen and these outsiders not to move around in the tomb of the gods, otherwise Chen Laohei's death would be their end. Yuan Sen nodded. He walked around the blue cube of ice and turned to the back of the palace. Behind the palace was a huge piece of ice. The ice was more than sixty meters wide and connected to the dome of the palace. Most of it was frozen. Yuan Sen walked around behind the giant ice cube. There was less than a meter of gap between the ice cube and the palace wall, which was considered a passageway.He walked into the aisle, his mouth was dry for a while, the things frozen in the big ice were too scary, it was like a dead body museum. He took a picture with a flashlight, and the large cube of ice was filled with dead bodies similar in appearance to Hambar Ata, all with golden hair, some wearing linen clothes, and some wearing metal armor. They had different postures, such as Like swimming in an aquarium, there are many strange postures, such as lying on your back, lying on your stomach, sideways, standing, etc., which cannot be described one by one. However, the death conditions of these corpses resembled Chen Laohei. After Yuan Sen observed carefully, he confirmed his speculation that these people should be members of the god Hambar Ata, and their death method was the same as Chen Laohei. of.He recalled the details of the frozen corpse of God Hambar Ata, and it seemed that this was also the way of death. Yuan Sen was secretly shocked. He vaguely felt that this matter was too strange. These corpses had been frozen for more than a thousand years. Before the "Grey Cat Project" was launched, the ice palace and cliffs were covered by huge glaciers, which looked like a giant iceberg. Big Bingdan, it is this unique environment that allows the corpses of God Hambar Ata and his people to survive for thousands of years. According to the burial method of ancient nobles, these corpses should be buried alive, but their way of death is too strange.Assuming this conjecture is true, and these people were all killed by God Hambar-Ata, then the strange way of self-torture death must be manipulated by God Hambar-Ata, but how did he do it? Yuan Sen made countless speculations, but it was difficult to convince himself, and he fell into deep distress.The secret of the human Pitu in the underground space of the Flaming Mountain was solved, but they fell into a new vicious circle. into boundless fear. Ai Kailam suddenly called him in front of the palace wall, Yuan Sen agreed, and hurriedly retreated, but the impression left on him by those huge frozen corpses was something he would never forget. Yuan Sen returned to the frozen place of God Hambar Ata, saw more than 20 people gathered in a circle, and the snow leopards were shuttling in the middle of the ice crevasse to be on guard. The atmosphere was more tense than the discovery of Chen Laohei's body. He realized that something had happened up. He pushed aside the warriors of the tribe outside, and saw Hassan Burke and Kambasa were squatting on the ground respectfully spreading out a piece of silk cloth. It was gray soil linen silk cloth, more than one meter long, with a string of dark silk on it. Red characters.Yuan Sen was no stranger to that string of characters, it was the same as the Qili characters they saw in the underground space. Moreover, it is obviously an indisputable fact that the beauty civilization is inherited in the same line as the god Hambar Ata. Wang Hui quickly wrote down the line in the notebook, Hassan Burke looked at the line repeatedly, and stuffed it into the ice hole, which was smashed open by Chen Laohei. Hassan Burke worshiped and saluted again, and went through a series of ceremonies held by the clan to worship the god Hambar Ata before standing up and explaining a few words in a hurry, leading everyone out of the palace. They crossed the ice pile, Hassan Burke's face was solemn, and his walking speed did not slow down at all, and he did not slow down until he passed the mountain.Yuan Sen realized that he had understood the string of characters on the sackcloth, all of which suggested that there was something wrong with that string of characters. Old Burke stood behind the mountain, turned his head to look at the majestic palace, his sight was completely blocked by the mountain, and the supreme tomb of Hambar Ata in his mind was completely blocked by the towering mountain, Old Burke sighed . Yuan Sen took the opportunity to say, "Lord Burke, what is written on the sackcloth?" Wang Hui also looked suspiciously and expectantly. With her intelligence, she could definitely guess that something was wrong with the string of characters. Old Burke said: "That sentence is God Hambar Ata's warning to those who break into the tomb of God, which means that those who read this sentence must have opened the door to disaster. What you think about is no longer Wealth, but how to save." He paused, and said: "After the old wizard was killed, only I can understand the words left by God Hambar Ata. Our mistaken entry has brought disaster." ... Later, Old Burke stopped talking, and Little Snow Leopard acted like a baby behind him, and he didn't have the heart to talk to him, as if he was out of his mind. 众人走完了石桥,又要重新渡过天险回到石台,再经竖洞下到冰川底下去。 老伯克等众人都过了天险,才攀上绳子,脚踏进石洞,他返回的速度明显比上石桥的速度慢了几个节拍。 王慧低声对袁森道:“伯克非常不对劲,恐怕要出问题。” 袁森看着哈桑老伯克魂不守舍的样子,心里也比较担心,他和康巴萨不停地嘱咐老伯克小心攀爬,集中注意力。 老伯克爬到一半,突然踏了空,双手死抓着绳子,那粗绳子被他搅在一起,在半空中打着旋。众人心里一沉,眼看着老伯克遇险却没办法营救。绳子和石头受力有限,再加上一个人的重量,会导致石洞洞壁破裂。 老伯克挣扎了一番,身体慢慢稳了,他荡着绳子,试图踏进附近的凹洞里,又踏了空。接着就是一声惨叫,老伯克的身体就像大石头般落了下去,悬崖底下响起一阵破布包落地的沉闷声音,回声在空气中飘荡了很久很久。 康巴萨站在石台边缘,拼命地用手电朝下照射,底下的冰川比他们上来时下降了不少,他父亲的身体落进冰川堆里,连一丝影子也看不到。康巴萨不死心,趴在石台上,拼命地瞪大眼睛盯着蔚蓝的冰川。如果不是袁森和艾凯拉木死命拖住他,恐怕他已经跳下去了。 康巴萨良久才冷静下来,一句话也不说,盯着悬崖下的冰川发愣。雪豹们与老伯克感情极好,老伯克掉下去的瞬间,它们也骚乱起来,特别是小雪豹,它在石台上胡乱跳跃着,不时地蹭康巴萨的腿。 康巴萨沉默了很久,才道:“不行,我要下去——” 艾凯拉木劝道:“康巴萨,你是特种兵,整天受领导的教育,懂的道理比咱大老粗多,你看看这么深的悬崖,下面还不知道有几百上千米深呢,你爸爸的尸体肯定摔得稀巴烂了,你这样下去不是断了你们家族的香火吗?” 康巴萨冷静道:“他是我爸爸,就算拼命,我也要找到他的尸体。他的尸体摔碎了,我就尽可能地凑整齐。” 话说到这种程度,没人敢反对了。袁森帮他把所有人的绳子都收集起来,再将绳子对接好。康巴萨一言不发,就看着脚下的悬崖出神。 他们做好准备工作,康巴萨拴上绳子正要下去,王慧突然走到他身后,一拳击中了他的后脑勺,康巴萨猝不及防,软绵绵地倒了下去,袁森急忙扶住他。 康巴萨的族人立刻跳起来,弓、矛、剑并用。王慧厉声道:“你们的哈桑伯克已经死了,难道你们还想让他的儿子死无全尸吗?” 那帮人你看我我看你,不知道如何是好。 这帮从小在山坳野谷里长大的年轻人根本没办法跟上现代人的思维,这种仓促变故让他们一时难以接受。 王慧把康巴萨推给一个小头目,道:“你带着他,我们先下去,记住,我们是在救你们的小伯克。” 那人唯唯诺诺,把康巴萨绑在背上,旁边两个壮汉搀扶着他。众人在王慧的命令下从竖洞下到了冰川底下。 他们一路无话,从原路返回到冰川里。王慧下手非常重,康巴萨到了丛林里才悠悠醒过来。 他是一副倔强脾气,明白怎么回事后,从族人背上跳下来,要折返回去找他爸爸的尸体。族人想要阻拦,但哪里是他的对手,两三个回合就被他打倒了。 王慧大声道:“康巴萨同志,国家交给我们的任务还没有完成,你这样冒险送死,不但找不回你爸爸的尸体,还枉自送了自己的命,辜负了大领导对你的期望,你值得吗?” 康巴萨一阵尴尬,王慧又道:“你记住,你是755师的兵,你身上肩负着责任和使命,你属于你的部落,也属于这个国家,你还是你爸爸的孩子,相信你爸爸的亡魂也不希望你做这种愚蠢的事情。” 王慧的一番教训让袁森和艾凯拉木目瞪口呆,他们暗自嘀咕王慧果然是军队干部,教训人一套一套的,就是有点儿不近人情,在这种场合还拿集体荣誉那一套来吓唬人。
