Chapter 22 Chapter 21 The Big Secret

Yuan Sen said: "Besides, because Tang Jun opened the iron box and released that bizarre thing, the entire army was annihilated. The person who kept Pitu was fine, and he still has time to do so many things, isn't it unreasonable?" Ai Kailam nodded and said: "Yes! Yes! That guy also said that he was imprisoned here, and anyone who trespassed would die! Damn, is he human?" Yuan Sen and Wang Hui looked at each other, and their expressions changed. Thinking of this, Yuan Sen couldn't help swimming into the cave. Seeing this, Kang Basa and Wang Hui also followed in.Kang Basa had received professional diving training in the army, and his professional acuity prompted him to keep reminding Yuan Sen that the cave is dangerous, so he must be careful, how to swim in such a small space, and avoid obstacles Things hang and so on.

Yuan Sen agreed and swam forward quickly.The cave is about four meters wide and can accommodate several people diving in parallel. Considering that they can respond quickly in case of danger, the three of them are separated by a certain distance. They turned a few times in the water cave, and Yuan Sen saw the corpse of a fake special soldier floating in the water cave. The corpse was stuck to the ceiling of the cave, the oxygen mask fell off, the mouth was wide open, and the eyes protruded, which was extremely terrifying.Yuan Sen swam over and called Kang Basa and Wang Hui over to let them identify the corpse.

Wang Hui looked at the face of the corpse and said, "He is also a member of the second communication team." Kang Basa also confirmed it, and Yuan Sen secretly said: "It's another one." When Wang Hui turned around, she found that the corpse was still holding a thick iron chain. The iron chain was stretched out from the water in front, and there was no way to pull it. Something must be tied to the front. Yuan Sen said to the two: "Be careful, depending on the situation, there may be a lake monster tied up in front of you. Even the seven of them can't fight, let alone us. Stay away from me. If I have a situation ahead, you will immediately dodge. "

Yuan Sen swam forward by touching the iron chain, but this time Wang Hui jumped in line and swam in front of Kangbasa, and followed Yuan Sen about two meters behind.Yuan Sen looked at this woman, feeling strange, but his mind was all on the iron chain, and he didn't say much. Yuan Sen swam for more than 30 meters by touching the iron chain, turned a corner, and entered a huge cave.He dived underwater and couldn't see how wide the cave was. He swam around and his headlight couldn't even reach the cave wall.He pulled the iron chain and swam more than ten meters in the big cave, and the iron chain was tilted downward.When Yuan Sen reached the bottom of the cave, he found an iron box at the bottom of the cave.The iron chain is attached to the box.

There is a string of copper rings on the waist of the iron box, and the copper rings are covered with extremely thick iron chains. There are about ten of them.Those chains were scattered on the bottom of the water, like coiled long snakes. Yuan Sen dived to the bottom of the water and squatted next to the iron box. There was no mud at the bottom of this cave, and it was solid once he stepped on it.The iron box is two meters long and one meter wide. It is not very big. There is a layer of wide copper edge inlaid with the upper and lower parts of the box to seal the iron box.The copper ring on the iron box hangs on the copper edge.

Kang Basa and Wang Hui saw Yuan Sen squatting beside the iron box, so they also sneaked over.Wang Huiyou walked up to Yuan Sen and said, "Mr. Yuan, is this the source of the iron chain?" Yuan Sen responded, pointed to more than a dozen iron chains hanging on the box, and said, "They are all here." When they saw the thing on the other end of the iron chain, they were curious and amazed. How could an iron box make such a big noise at the bottom of the water?They originally thought that the thing tied to the iron chain should be a living creature like the lake monster, otherwise it would be impossible to explain that it dragged seven extraordinary fake special forces into the water, causing them to die of serious injuries one by one.

Kang Basa patted the top of the box and said: "The box is not full, at least it is half empty. This is what the fake special forces are looking for, right?" Yuan Sen nodded and said: "Looking at the situation, I checked the copper edge that seals the box. The copper edge and the iron box are fused together. Without good tools, I can't get it open for a while." Wang Hui walked around the iron box and said to the two, "Have you noticed that the floor of this cave is paved with stone slabs, and there is no mud at all." Only then did Yuan Sen notice that there was no mud on the ground, so he touched it with his hand. The ground was indeed rocks, which meant that the cave had been artificially processed.

Yuan Sen asked Wang Hui to walk forward to see if the whole cave was like this.After walking about ten meters, Wang Hui replied that she could walk on mud, and only one area around the iron box was covered with stones. Yuan Sen pondered for a while, the stone floor was centered on the iron box, that is to say, the iron box was at this position many years ago.The length of the iron chain is limited. The seven fake special forces clearly dragged the iron box out of the water. The lake is no less than 100 meters away from the bottom. How could the iron box be dragged back to its original position?

This is really something that people can't figure out. If the iron box falls to the bottom of the lake outside the cave, it can be accepted reluctantly. However, this cave has nine twists and turns, and the iron box can't pass. It is a dead thing, can it still find its way back?It's so wicked. Yuan Sen circled around the iron box, his mind full of doubts. He didn't notice that a pair of vicious eyes were staring at them in the darkness.Yuan Sen walked around for a while, but found nothing new, so he retreated to a place other than the stone floor.He swam forward for a while, and found a huge stone wall more than 30 meters away from the iron box.The stone wall was about ten meters long and four meters wide, and there was a huge human face engraved in the middle of the stone wall.

This face was exactly the same as the face on the stone wall he saw in the cube. Yuan Sen speculated that this person was probably a beautiful and civilized hero. What was the significance of putting his head in the cube and in front of the iron box? Woolen cloth? Yuan Sen found a large stone wall in the cave, and immediately summoned Kang Basa and Wang Hui.When Kangbasa saw the face on the stone wall, he was surprised and said, "Why is it him again?" Wang Huiqi asked, "Do you know him?" Kang Basa nodded, and said: "We have also seen an identical stone wall in the cube, and his portrait is also carved on the stone wall. Moreover, I have seen our wizard worship this painting when I was young."

Wang Hui was taken aback, and said, "Kangbasa, what tribe are you from?" Kangbasa said: "Kazakhs, my hometown is at the foot of the Altai Mountains." Wang Huidao: "The outline of this person has the characteristics of ancient Indo-Europeans, and the strange characters we found in the shade room are a relatively ancient Cypriot language. From this inference, I doubt the so-called beautiful civilization. , is a branch of the Gusai people civilization.” "Sai people?" Yuan Sen repeated in a low voice. "As far as I know, the areas where the Sai people were active in ancient times were in the Ili River Basin and the Pamirs. There is no relevant record in Turpan." Wang Huidao: "The Sai people were only a flash in the pan in the history of the Western Regions, and the records in the history books are very rough. However, there are legends that the Sai tribe came to the Altay area after being expelled by the Dayue Clan. The Kazakh tribe near Altay is indeed the descendant of the Sai people. , which is consistent with what Cambasa said." Kambasa was surprised: "Are we the descendants of the Serbs?" Wang Huidao: "This is just our speculation. After we go out, we need to go to your tribe. If we can find direct evidence, we can make a correct judgment." Kangbasa nodded, not knowing what to say for a moment. Yuan Sen said suddenly: "Do you feel it? The pressure around has become so great." Kang Basa asked in surprise: "Is there something wrong with your oxygen supply equipment?" Yuan Sen looked at the consumption data of the oxygen cylinder, and said, "No, there is still about half of the oxygen, and what I feel is the pressure from the water." Wang Hui also said: "I also felt it. The water pressure has indeed increased a lot all of a sudden. What's going on? It was normal just now." Yuan Sen turned his head to look back, and suddenly a big wave swept from behind him. Before Yuan Sen could react, he was swept over the stone wall by the wave and rolled more than ten meters away.Kang Basa and Wang Hui were thrown farther away as if they were thrown out.In the cave where the water waves were calm, an extremely strong convection phenomenon suddenly formed, as if something was pushing the water. After the three fell down, they were soon pushed by the water waves to roll deeper into the cave. Yuan Sen was terrified, remembering that most of the fake special forces died of suffocation due to disconnection of the air supply pipe, so he hurriedly pressed the valve connecting the air supply pipe and the oxygen mask, fearing that the air supply pipe would be thrown away and follow in the footsteps of the fake special soldiers. The convective force of the water in the cave is astonishing. No matter how hard Yuan Sen paddled, he could not maintain his body balance. In front of this convective water force, a person is like a little grasshopper. He has no control over his body and can only let himself Drift with the current. In a panic, Yuan Sen saw a figure swaying in front of him. Before he could take a closer look, he reached out and grabbed the man's arm. Their hands were firmly locked together, and they were pushed far away by the water waves.After five or six minutes, the surrounding water waves gradually calmed down. Yuan Sen shook his dazed head, and saw clearly that the person caught by him was Wang Hui, but Kang Basa was gone, and he didn't know where he was pushed by the water waves. Wang Hui patted Yuan Sen's hand and said, "Thank you, you saved me again." Yuan Sen felt a little embarrassed by Wang Hui's sudden thank you, and said, "Teammate—" He was concerned about Kangbasa's safety in his heart, so he called a few times urgently, and after a while, he received Kangbasa's difficult answer: "Mr. Yuan, I - I am here -" Yuan Sen followed the sound and saw that Kang Basa was swimming from behind with difficulty. His arm hit the stone wall and was injured, but there was no bone injury, and it was not serious.Wang Hui handled it briefly for him. Yuan Sen said: "Kangbasa, did you see anything when we were thrown over just now?" Kangbasa hesitated for a moment, and said, "It seems——it's a big black shadow——" Yuan Sendao: "When I turned my head, I vaguely saw a big shadow behind me. Before I could see it, the person was thrown over. Is that thing the reason why the iron box came back by itself?" Kang Basa said: "I can't see clearly at all, there is no way to be sure." Yuan Sen said: "Now the waves are much calmer, why don't we go back and see what that thing is?" Kang Basa said: "Okay, but let's be careful, hold each other's hands tightly, and don't be swept away by the waves." Wang Hui nodded, and the three of them hooked their arms together, turned around and swam back side by side.When they approached the stone wall, a huge thing suddenly burst out from behind the stone wall. Before the three of them even had time to look carefully, the waves of water swept towards them like crazy.Wrap them and throw them far away.The three of them held on to each other tightly and refused to let go.After more than ten minutes, the water waves calmed down again, and they didn't know where they rolled. Kang Basa said: "Mr. Yuan, there is no way to get close to it, and I can't even see its appearance clearly." Yuan Sen gritted his teeth. That thing was indeed annoying. Since he couldn't get close to it, he couldn't think of a way to deal with it.They can't go back to the iron box now, and the hole to go out is also within the sphere of influence of that thing, and they can't get close, which is really helpless. At this moment, a ray of light came from afar, and the source of the light was the direction of the iron box. Yuan Sen was shocked. With that strange thing guarding it, how could there be people in that place? Kang Basa whispered: "Mr. Yuan, they should be fake special forces." Yuan Sen nodded, and said, "Turn off the lights, don't startle the snake, and see the situation." The three of them dispersed into the corner, and the beam of light got closer and closer. Yuan Sen saw that the light source was also a headlamp, and the other party was dressed in the same outfit as them, so it should be a fake special soldier.The man didn't realize that there was someone hiding in the darkness, so he swam over slowly.Seeing that he was alone, the three people in the darkness rushed up and grabbed him, tightly clasping his hands and feet. Kangbasa's skills are among the best in the army, and Yuan Sen's skills are not bad. Although Wang Hui is a weak woman, she is very ruthless in controlling the enemy. The opponent's skills are worse than they imagined. He was subdued before he could react.The man saw a group of his own people rushing out of the darkness to punch him, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked after a while: "What's the matter with you?" Yuan Sen kicked him in the back and said, "Be honest, what's going on, you are in our hands now. Now you answer whatever we ask, if you get angry with us, you will die a miserable death." The man's face behind the oxygen mask changed immediately, and he said, "You are not ours, who are you?" Yuan Sen kicked him again, "What's it called? The fucking place is so deep underground, it's normal to kill you, don't blame me for abusing lynching." The man said: "It's okay to ask me questions, but you must first tell me who you are. Otherwise, hehe—" Yuan Sen was in a hurry and wanted to lynch again, but Wang Hui stopped him and said, "It's okay to tell him, we are from the 755th Division, you should know our details, otherwise you wouldn't wear our uniform to cheat. " The man froze for a moment, not knowing how to answer.Yuan Sen said angrily: "Okay, your request is too much, not like the attitude a prisoner should have, but we are very sincere and have already given in first, you have to answer our questions quickly." The man hesitated and said, "Actually——Actually, I am also a special soldier belonging to the 755th Division." Yuan Sen kicked over again, kicking the man almost kneeling on the ground, said: "You think we are fools, we don't know who you are, play this trick with us." The man said: "My unit is really the 755th Division. My name is Mu Lun, and I belong to the Investigation Section of the Fifth Squadron." Yuan Sen was taken aback, Wang Hui and Kang Basa said in unison: "Captain Ma—" Yuan Sen turned around to look at the man's face, and was shocked when he saw it clearly, and said, "Captain Ma, why is it you?" It turned out that this person was the young captain who drove the Warriors off-road vehicle with Qiao Xiaoyi to pick up Yuan Sen at Xinda University. It was only a few days before they met again in this way. Captain Ma also saw Yuan Sen's appearance clearly, and said, "Mr. Yuan, it's you." Yuan Sen let go of the captain in embarrassment, and asked, "Why did you come down too? Are you with the third communication team or—" Captain Ma said: "The team I followed was an illegal organization. Mr. Yuan, do you remember that day I went to Xinda University to pick you up, and we were ambushed? Later, Dr. Tian arranged for me to investigate them, and I took advantage of them. It was an opportunity to recruit people in Urumqi, sneaked in, and followed here." "What kind of organization are they?" Captain Ma said: "I don't know the details yet. My role in the organization is just to handle affairs. But when I found out that their purpose conflicted with our army, I decided to stay undercover. I didn't expect to meet them underground. to you." Wang Hui said: "Lieutenant Ma, I am Wang Hui from the third communications unit, and I would like to ask you some questions." Captain Ma hurriedly said: "Assistant Wang, I know you, if you have any questions, feel free to ask, we are all comrades-in-arms." Wang Hui said in a deep voice: "In your team, we found the comrades-in-arms of the second communication unit, and the first communication unit and the second communication unit were completely wiped out when they were carrying out their missions. But they followed your team and appeared underground. Just now in the water, we saw their bodies for the second time. This is very strange, do you know the truth of this incident?" Captain Ma's eyes changed suddenly. Obviously, this question pierced his heart. He hesitated and said, "I also recognized them, but I didn't know they were dead." "Then do they know your identity?" Captain Ma said: "They are very strange. I tried to communicate with them with the special password of the army, but they turned a blind eye. When I talked to them, they ignored them. It was different from my previous contact with them. Another thing is also very disturbing. Surprised, their physical fitness and fighting skills have been greatly improved compared to when they were in the army. When the team leader announces the task, they can understand it immediately and complete it without hesitation, a bit like a robot. Except me and the team leader Waiting for people is normal, and everyone else has this characteristic. We don’t communicate in private, and the only requirement is to carry out orders. This situation makes me panic. Later, people who were slightly normal disappeared one by one, and I realized that inside If there is a problem, I just imitate their appearance and do things, and I have persisted until now." Yuan Sen said: "You said they are a group of people with problems?" Captain Ma said: "Yes, at least they are not normal people. They have super physical strength. If I fight alone, with my skills, I am definitely not their opponent." After listening to Captain Ma's narration, Yuan Sen was taken aback. That is to say, the people in the second communication unit not only came back from the dead, but even mutated and possessed special combat power. This is really an incomprehensible thing. Captain Ma said: "The strength of the most ordinary people in this small team is comparable to that of a bull. When the captain arranged for them to drag the iron box up, all nine of them were amazingly strong. They combined Power, no less than a small locomotive.” Yuan Sen said: "We only saw seven people on the lake, how come there are nine?" Captain Ma said: "In order to maintain the balance of the iron box, there are two people dragging it underwater, and I am one of them. When dragging the iron box, I always subconsciously feel that something is following us, and the underwater sight distance is limited. I just kept an eye out. They dragged the iron box to float up, and the journey went smoothly. Although the iron box was heavy, it was not too troublesome with the joint efforts of nine people. Just when the box was about to come out of the water, I clearly felt The surrounding pressure increased, and I was a little out of breath, so I abandoned the iron box and went to the back to check the movement, and I was surprised when I saw it." Yuan Sen was also a little nervous when he heard it, and said, "What did you see?" Captain Ma said: "It's a very big spineless fish, its whole body is limp, like an inflated balloon, its whole body is black, there is a row of carapaces on its abdomen, and there are long legs underneath, its legs are too many to count. I walked around it cautiously, and saw that thing quickly caught up with the iron box. Its long legs rested on the iron box. When it was pulled back hard, the iron box was dragged back several meters. The force was amazing. Next to the iron box The team member turned around and took out a gun and fired a round of bullets at the monster, but it dodged all of them. It wrapped its long legs around the man and pulled it, and the team member was decapitated. The monster dragged the iron box back Lah, at first the seven people above were able to withstand it, but after a short stalemate, they were all dragged into the water, I followed the monster carefully all the way, and found this place." Yuan Sen said: "It seems that the monster is guarding the iron box. We have seen its ability in the water just now. Fortunately, we didn't provoke it, otherwise it would have been torn to pieces." Wang Huidao: "Captain Ma, do you know why that organization is looking for this iron box? What is the value of the iron box, and is it worth their effort?" Yuan Sen said: "Besides, why did that organization monitor me? This is really weird." Captain Ma said: "According to my investigation, their ultimate goal is not to monitor you, but to find someone." Yuan Sen was shocked and said, "You mean Professor Yang Jian?" Captain Ma said: "I installed a secret wiretapping device on the captain, and I heard the conversation between him and his superior. They have been using that person instead of the person they are looking for. It is said that the person was lost when he was in Urumqi. Maybe they went back to Xinda in secret. They also mentioned that they wanted to be ahead of the curve and get that mysterious thing, and they were willing to pay all the price for it.” From Captain Ma's statement, Yuan Sen can be sure that the person the organization is looking for must be Professor Yang Jian. Professor Yang Jian may have returned to SMU. The book "Secrets of Religion in the Western Regions" must have been written after he returned from Helan Mountain. overturned.It is already very strange that Professor Yang Jian died and came back to life. It is even more strange that he did not look for himself when he returned to Xinda University, but wanted to find a mysterious thing. Captain Ma said: "As for what's in the iron box and what's its use, I haven't heard any information. I only know that they said they must get the box." Wang Huidao: "Then the organization is in the cube, besides you, are there only two people left?" Captain Ma nodded and said: "I guess that all seven people on the lake are dead, and the only ones left now are the captain and the sub-captain. They are all normal people and have great skills. After they assign tasks, let Let's get the iron box out first and wait for them by the lake, I'm curious what they're going to do, but I can't ask." Wang Huidao: "So, those two are still in the cave." Captain Ma said: "It's possible. They should have known about the accident in the unit. The iron box has not been shipped out, and I have not received any news from them." Yuan Sen said: "The monster is guarding next to the iron box. We can't get close to it. We have to find a way to lure it away, get out of the box and dismantle it. You can tell the secrets inside at a glance." Captain Ma said: "We've all seen that monster before. It's not impossible to find its flaws, at least it's very difficult. Even the people in that organization didn't expect this thing to exist in the water." Yuan Sensi thought about it, but he couldn't come up with a feasible solution. At this moment, he clearly felt that the surrounding water was rushing, and there was a pressure gradually enveloping him. He even became a little bit breathless. difficulty.Yuan Sen whispered: "That thing is coming again, let's run away!" Captain Ma nodded, and Kang Basa swam forward first, while Yuan Sen and Wang Hui fell behind. Before they had swum a few meters, a huge wave came from behind.The four of them were pushed by the strong tide, and they couldn't control their bodies at all. They rolled in the water for a long time before they gradually stopped. Their headlights were all damaged in the violent collision.Yuan Sen stabilized his body and slapped the headlight a few times. The headlight flickered twice and then went out. No matter how much he slapped, there was no response.Yuan Sen cursed secretly, and called a few more times on the walkie-talkie, but he didn't receive any response. He became faintly worried, not knowing where the other three people had been rushed, so he fumbled in the water. After a while, Yuan Sen received a radio signal from Wang Hui. At this moment, he touched a person in the water. The person was cold all over. He secretly called "No!" and grabbed the person tightly. , Called Kangbasa and Captain Ma again. Captain Ma and Kang Basa replied one after another.Wang Hui's headlights turned on first, and she was about five meters in front of Yuan Sen. When she saw Yuan Sen, she swam over. Yuan Sen said: "I seem to have touched a corpse, come and have a look." Wang Hui swam to Yuan Sen's side and saw that the corpse was wearing the same diving suit as theirs, with blood still oozing from his body, and the water around him was stained red.Wang Hui checked the corpse and said, "The chest is still hot. He died not long ago, ah—why is his wound a bullet hole—" Using the headlights, Yuan Sen saw two bullet holes on the chest of the corpse, which was still bleeding. When he touched it, there was still a trace of warmth.Kangbasa and Captain Ma also surrounded him successively. Captain Ma lifted the mask of the corpse and said, "He is also a member of that organization, and is the deputy captain of the team for this operation." Yuan Sen said: "He died from a gunshot. Is there an infighting between your sub-captain and the vice-captain?" Captain Ma shook his head and said, "It's not very likely. The vice-captain is obedient to the captain. The possibility of conflict between them is very small. The captain also regards him as his own." Yuan Sendao: "Now there is only one person left in the organization, and the team leader must know a lot. Let's find a way to find him, which will be of great benefit to us digging deeper secrets." Captain Ma said: "The two of them have always entered and exited together, the vice-captain died not long ago, the captain should not go too far. If the vice-captain was killed by someone else, the captain should and will definitely encounter something unexpected." Yuan Sen said: "Okay, let's spread out and search, and keep in touch at any time." The four drew their weapons.Yuan Sen's headlamp was broken, so he took out a waterproof flashlight from his backpack to light it.They spread out for a distance, carefully looking for possible traces.The sub-captain of the mysterious organization was a very important clue to them, and it was very useful in unraveling the mystery of Qi Li Wenming and Professor Yang Jian, so they looked for it very carefully. Yuan Sen dived tens of meters and approached one of the cave walls. There was a two-meter-wide opening in the cave wall. Yuan Sen took a photo inside. It was a long cave, and the possibility of hiding people inside was relatively high.He got in, and after only a few steps, his neck suddenly tightened, and he was strangled tightly by someone's arms, and then he was dragged into the water. Yuan Sen was shocked, lost the waterproof flashlight in a hurry, and tried desperately to break the man's arm. The man was strong, and Yuan Sen couldn't break free after several attempts.Yuan Sen hit the water with his legs and shouted hoarsely: "Call—call—I'm in danger—come—" Before Yuan Sen finished speaking, the man punched him twice in the stomach.Yuan Sen held back the pain and tried his best to break the man's arm, but it broke open.Yuan Sen shrunk his neck and sank straight down. He was about to break free from the man's arm, but he didn't prevent the man's knee from pressing against his stomach.Yuan Sen opened his mouth and almost choked on a mouthful of water. When they heard Yuan Sen's call for help, Kang Basa and Captain Ma surrounded him.The person who caught Yuan Sen saw that the situation was not good, so he dragged Yuan Sen into the cave.Yuan Sen's neck was strangled by him, and he was unable to speak.He saw a flash of light at the entrance of the cave, guessing that Kambasa and the others were coming, so he hit the water vigorously with his feet, and the man punched him in the stomach again. The man dragged Yuan Sen for a swim, and Yuan Sen was restrained and unable to move.The man suddenly went upstream in the depths of the cave, and when he reached the top of the cave, he pushed open the partition on the top of the cave with one hand, pushed Yuan Sen in, and climbed in with him. As soon as Yuan Sen went up, another hand stretched out from above and dragged him inside.After the man in the cave climbed up, he clasped the partition again. Yuan Sen thought to himself, "Isn't there only one person left? How come there is still a response?" The space in the partition is sealed, and water cannot flood in. Someone came to remove Yuan Sen's mask, dragged him more than ten meters away, and said to another person: "Professor, that guy is caught!" Yuan Sen wondered secretly: "Professor?" In the darkness, someone turned on a flashlight, and a beam of strong light was aimed at Yuan Sen's face. Yuan Sen squinted his eyes because of the stabbing, and a hoarse and deep voice from the opposite side said, "We won't kill you, but you must be honest. Tell us everything you know about it.” Yuan Sen's brain exploded, he almost thought he was hallucinating, he blurted out: "Professor? Are you Professor Yang Jian?" The person opposite Yuan Sen was also taken aback, and said, "Xiao Yuan, it's you!" The flashlight that was facing Yuan Sen was removed, Yuan Sen shook his head, and it took him a while to see the person in front of him clearly.Professor Yang Jian knelt down, helped Yuan Sen up, and said, "Misunderstanding, what a misunderstanding." Yuan Sen was agitated for a moment, and tears welled up in his eyes. He choked up and said, "Professor, I—I—thought you had died at the bottom of Helan Mountain." Professor Yang Jian patted Yuan Sen on the shoulder and said, "Little Yuan, I have a big life, and I won't die so easily." The man in the diving suit standing next to Yuan Sen said in surprise, "Professor, did we catch the wrong one?" Professor Yang Jian said with a smile: "Wrong! Wrong! He is my student. I didn't expect that we would meet here." The man in the diving suit said: "That guy has slipped away again. I'll go down and look for it again. Professor, you can call me anytime you need it." Professor Yang Jian nodded, the man turned around and got into the water, Yuan Sen said, "Professor, where is this?" Professor Yang Jian said: "This is a beautiful and civilized forbidden area. We were able to go into this deep water, but we almost sold half our lives to Lord Hades." Yuan Sen was puzzled and said, "Professor, what do you mean?" Professor Yang Jian said: "We are looking for a thing left by Qi Liren. This thing is very dangerous. More than a thousand years ago, General Gao Xianzhi, the governor of the Fourth Town of Anxi and the Protector of Beiting in the Tang Dynasty, opened this thing. As a result, his elite troops were almost wiped out underground, and he himself almost died in the bottom of the Flame Mountain. You said that if we come to look for this thing again, are we giving our lives to Lord Hades?" Yuan Sen was dumbfounded when he heard this. From the underground space to the lake in the mountains, he encountered countless strange things, but Professor Yang Jian's words explained everything. Yuan Sen said: "Professor, is the thing you mentioned in an iron box?" Professor Yang Jian nodded, and said: "You have seen that thing too. General Gao Xianzhi opened the iron box on the spot after he got it, but he didn't expect the things in the box to be a disaster. It is Pandora's magic box, and the things hidden in it cannot be controlled by him. General Gao Xianzhi escaped from the Flame Mountain, and ordered the craftsmen to reseal the iron box, and then cast iron chains on the iron box, more than ten iron chains Tether the iron box to the cave. The mountain in the lake where we are staying was originally a mountain in the middle of the lake that drilled out of the water. It was a place for the Qili royal family to play. , then used the countless sulfur nitrates in the Flame Mountain to blow up the Huxin Mountain, and the iron box sank to the bottom of the lake along with the Huxin Mountain, and has never reappeared in the world until now." Yuan Sen said: "Professor, since that thing is so terrifying, what are you doing looking for it?" Professor Yang Jian said: "It's not that we are looking for it, but someone wants to use it to do evil. I found the whereabouts of those people in the Flame Mountain, and I used the communication facilities they set up in the Flame Mountain to ask Dr. Tian for help. Doctor's power to stop their evil deeds." Yuan Sen finally realized something, and said, "Professor, these things—where did you find the information?" Professor Yang Jian gave him a mysterious smile and said, "This secret is also related to the Emerald Glass Palace." Yuan Sen was shocked: "Professor, you—you—really went to the Emerald Glass Palace? Isn't that the legendary place?" At this time, Professor Yang Jian's walkie-talkie rang: "Call—Call—Professor, we have found the trace of that man. He seems to be distracting the monster guarding the iron box. Should we wait before we act?" Professor Yang Jian decisively ordered: "Don't startle the snake, just observe secretly, I will go over immediately." After all, he ordered the other four people in the cave to act quickly, and changed into a diving suit himself. After seeing that the four of them had entered the water, he said to Yuan Sen: "Xiao Yuan, after entering the water, you have to follow my orders. If you are not careful, , we will all die in the cave, understand?" Yuan Sen nodded.Professor Yang Jian lowered his mask, patted Yuan Sen on the shoulder, and jumped down first.Yuan Sen also entered the water.A group of people swam out of the narrow cave and gradually approached the iron box.When they came near the stone wall, the crowd hiding behind the stone wall rushed out.Yuan Sen found Wang Hui, Kang Basa and Captain Ma inside.Wang Hui told him that these people were all members of the third communication team that disappeared before. They disappeared mysteriously in the tent because they listened to Professor Yang Jian's warning. It is said that they were almost surrounded by fake special forces at that time. morning. Yuan Sen adjusted the walkie-talkie to the same frequency band as the third communication unit, and heard Professor Yang Jian asking the captain of the third communication unit how the situation was. The captain said: "That guy ate a bunch of plants for it. It's a little floating now. It should be drugged with anesthesia or something, and it's being pulled out of the cave." Professor Yang Jian nodded and said, "Take four people there and use a powerful weapon. As soon as it is paralyzed, shoot immediately. The captain of the other party is very harmful. If there are no special circumstances, he will also be dealt with." gone." The captain nodded, and greeted the four people. They quickly checked the guns, then stepped out of the stone wall and carefully sneaked towards the exit of the cave.It didn't take long before I heard the sound of gunfire coming from the cave.After a while, the captain sent news that both the monster and the fake special forces captain had been dealt with. Professor Yang Jian called to more than 20 other people to quickly lift up the iron box.When they got out of the cave, they imitated what the fake special forces did, and finally lifted the iron box out of the water. On the shore of the lake, someone has already prepared devices such as cutting machines and batteries.Professor Yang Jian ordered the brigade to immediately climb out along the vertical hole, leaving only the leader of the third communication unit and two technical soldiers to cut open the iron box below.Yuan Sen wanted to stay, but was reprimanded by Professor Yang Jian, so he had to climb up resentfully. As soon as Yuan Sen and the others came out of the cave, they saw Ai Kailam crawling through the opening and peeping in. Suddenly, so many people came out, which shocked Ai Kailamu a lot. Ai Kailam saw a group of people from the third communication unit, and said in surprise: "Brother Yuan, have you surrendered to the enemy?" Yuan Sen briefly told him about his underground experience.Ai Kailam's blood boiled when he heard it, and he complained directly to Yuan Sen that he was not interesting enough to leave such exciting things aside. An hour later, a violent explosion sounded from the ground. Yuan Sen was terrified when he heard it. He didn't know what happened to Professor Yang Jian, and the walkie-talkie couldn't find the unit. After another half an hour, the team leader came out of the vertical hole, and everyone swarmed around him. Yuan Sen didn't see Professor Yang Jian coming up, so he was very worried, and said, "Captain, how is the situation?" The captain sighed, and said, "The opening of the box was relatively smooth." Yuan Sen asked nervously, "What about Professor Yang Jian? Why didn't he come up?" 队长到：“教授和我们两个队员带着那个东西从密道走了。” “走了？他们去了哪里？” “杨健教授说，他们要去罗布泊，那个东西不能在这里久留，他必须要赶紧为它寻找一个安身之所。” “杨健教授为什么不从这里走，要走什么密道？” 队长苦笑道：“那个东西的厉害程度，你完全没办法想象，杨健教授为了不伤害大家，自己带着那东西上路了。你看看立方体外包裹的那层金属、锁魂箱、水中的密闭铁箱等，高仙芝为了防范那东西出世，几乎用尽了一切办法。” 袁森道：“队长，我一直没弄明白锁魂箱是用来做什么的，放个铁箱子压住洞口就可以了，里面困头独角牛做什么？” 队长道：“高仙芝受高人指点，从昆仑山死亡谷里抓到这头独角牛，据说独角牛分泌的唾液能抑制地下粗茎的快速生长。如果不是被锁魂箱镇住，粗茎恐怕已经在地下长满了。这种粗茎含有剧毒，不但见血封喉，还有一种更为恐惧的作用，据说移走了铁箱中的那东西，粗茎就会停止生长，逐渐枯萎。” 袁森连叫奇怪：“队长，杨健教授去给那东西找安身之所，为什么去罗布泊？” 队长道：“按照杨健教授的说法，高仙芝大军屠城的时候，且丽王族并没有死绝，他们在部落一位圣者的带领下去了罗布泊。铁箱里密封的那东西是且丽人的圣物，据说当时有两个，是一对，且丽王族撤退的时候，没办法带走湖心山中的那个，只携带了一个去了罗布泊。” 袁森脑中浮现出地下空间的那幅壁画，四手四脚怪人带着且丽残兵登上一座高山，高山下面云雾缭绕，难道那怪人就是且丽文明的圣者？如果他们真的去了罗布泊，罗布泊又哪里有这样的高山？ 袁森叹了口气，道：“看来我要去罗布泊一趟了。” 这时，王慧走到他身边，道：“我们应该先去阿尔泰山，康巴萨的部族！” 袁森一愣，问道：“为什么？” 王慧道：“你记得石壁上那张人脸吗？我刚才在电脑数据库里查到一份资料，石壁上的人脸是一个被称为葡萄古国的末代君主，而资料中对葡萄古国的介绍，跟且丽文明非常接近，我猜测康巴萨的部落会不会与且丽文明有关系。” 康巴萨把王慧的话听得一清二楚，不禁张大嘴巴道：“我？” 就在这个时候，廊道外面传来嘈杂的“吱吱——”声，在手电光里，袁森看到大群的阴猪潮水一样涌了进来，它们一个个眼神中带着杀气，模样彪悍异常，风一样卷到众人面前。那些阴猪一只只硬毛倒竖，恶狠狠地瞪着众人。 队长大吼道：“大家保持镇定，用火焰喷射器守外围，其他人往后退。” 六个背着喷射器的特种兵站了出来，将其他人围在里面，无数只肥硕的阴猪将众人团团围住，而且步步紧逼，“吱吱吱吱”的尖叫声刺耳欲聋。 第三通信分队队长叫李克剑，是个四十出头的中年男人，皮肤黝黑，长着一张普通到不能再普通的脸。此刻他脸色凝重，眼睛瞪得很大，手高高地举起来，外围六个特种兵看着他的手势，随时准备出击。 在场的所有人的脸上都透着一股紧张的神情。袁森却在心里暗想，阴猪群在地下空间的时候，就被他们炸死无数，应该所剩不多了，怎么它们还能渡过大湖，涌进立方体来找他们报仇？ 阴猪群涌到喷火器的包围圈外，速度丝毫不减，发疯一样扑向六个特种兵。李队长大手一挥，喷火器喷出的浓烈火焰迅速烧翻一大批阴猪，空气里弥漫着浓浓的焦臭味。王慧忍不住捂住了口鼻。 艾凯拉木凑到袁森身边，道：“袁小哥，我觉得它们还惦着那张人皮图，才不依不饶，这里距离咱们炸它们的地方，得有多远啊，它们都能追踪过来。” 王慧很好奇，道：“什么人皮图？” 袁森掏出那张图，道：“看，就是这个。” 阴猪群在猛烈的火焰扫射下伤亡非常严重，很快被驱逐出了廊道。王慧拿起那张图，艾凯拉木为她举着手电，王慧皱着眉头看了一会儿，突然道：“这里怎么有一行字？” 袁森和艾凯拉木都把头探近了看，王慧拿出电脑，把那行字符描进电脑，很快电脑上译出一句话来：“我们要带着它，去寻找我们祖先来时的地方——” 三个人盯着电脑屏幕目瞪口呆：“他们祖先来时的地方在哪里？他们是且丽人祖先？” 艾凯拉木摆手道：“不对不对，袁小哥，咱们仔细回忆一下找到人皮图的过程。找到人皮图之后，咱们还发现了四手四脚怪人的壁画对不对？” 袁森点头道：“对！” “那好，最后一幅壁画说怪人带着且丽人残兵去了一个云雾缭绕的地方，这个画壁画的人应该没有跟着去，否则他不会再跑回来画这幅壁画。人皮图上的这句话，是不是就是说四手四脚怪人带着他们的宝贝，去寻找且丽人祖先来时的地方？” 袁森的脑子里却在不断地想着这件事与罗布泊的关系，王慧在荫房石碑上发现的神秘碑文中的那两句话也好像与人皮图有着莫大的关系。 "I am imprisoned here! Anyone who enters this place will die!" 壁画是预言，而碑文却是诅咒，这到底是什么意思？ 艾凯拉木道：“唐军屠了且丽人的城，且丽残兵跟着怪人带着宝贝逃难了，这个人怎么还留下来又是刻壁画又是画人皮图？这家伙太嚣张了吧？” 袁森道：“而且，唐军因为打开铁箱，放出那个离奇的东西，使得他们全军覆没。留人皮图的这个人却没事，还有时间做这么多事情，不合常理啊？” 艾凯拉木点头道：“对！对！那家伙还说他被囚禁于此，擅入者必死！娘的，他是不是人啊？” 袁森和王慧对视一眼，不禁脸色一变。
