Wild Sand Chapter 8: The Secret Story of the Sand Sea (2)


Shiry Yang reached out and picked up a photo from the ground: "I believe that the man who died suddenly was Mr.

Clyde, the doctor on the team."

I focused on the ancient ruins and didn't have a deep impression of the archaeological team.

I didn't pay attention to anyone else except Gong Chaoyang.

How did Shiry Yang identify Mr.

Clyde from a bunch of gray figures?

I asked curiously: "The corpse we found in Armadillo Cave was severely deformed.

You said he was the team doctor.

What evidence do you have?"

" "Yes," she spread out the work manual, "you should remember that most of the notes we found in Armadillo Cave were copied from the manual.

You see, even the drawing methods of the copper coin patterns are exactly the same.

Traces of imitation It’s very obvious.

I checked the information of the archaeological team members at that time, and it was him in terms of age, body shape and external characteristics.”

No wonder Shiry Yang had been silently looking through the manual, and it turned out that he had found a clue.

I regretted: "I didn't pay attention to the discovery of the Armadillo Cave at the beginning, and the things had been handed over to the museum long ago.

If the contents of the two records are similar, wouldn't it be necessary to translate it all over again?"

Shiry Yang's work along the way was mostly arduous.

Mental work, deciphering various documents and encrypted inscriptions.

Looking at the yellowed work manual, I began to worry about her.

"The key part is only a few pages, and it can be done quickly.

My mind is a little confused right now.

I can only assume some situations, but I can't guess why.

If you have time, you can think more about it, including Mr.

Clyde cause of death."

Her words reminded me that Mr.

Clyde’s death was classified as an archaeological accident.

He died tragically in an armadillo cave in a very strange way.

The plasma and plastic buckets he carried with him have always been puzzling.

At first, I analyzed that maybe he was forced to live in an armadillo cave to avoid some kind of harm.

Now that I think about it, is it related to the follow-up of the White Dragon Nest Archaeological Team?

I shook my head.

If this is the case, then why is Gong Chaoyang fine?

He has been living in the oasis for the past two years.

What kind of murderer would abandon the near and far away and go to another country to kill people?

Unless, this murderer is not human.

I was startled by the thought that suddenly appeared in my mind; I reached out and patted my cheek to clear my head.

Unexpectedly, the force was too strong and it almost hurt to death.

Lao Chuai was startled by these two slaps.

I explained that I was a little sleepy and it was not a big deal.

The most important thing right now is to determine the entrance to the ancient city.

As for the grievances of our international friend Dr.

Clyde, we can only postpone the investigation.

I have a map of the ancient town library on hand, plus a natural landscape map made up of photos.

Together with the current map of Green Sea, I can roughly divide some areas using a three-point positioning method.

As for the specific positioning, you still need to get out of the warehouse and go outside for on-site inspections.

The fat man came back quickly carrying a bamboo vegetable basket: "The people's soldiers are so kind.

When they heard that we were doing research, they immediately sent some steamed buns.

Come on, let's eat them while they're hot."

I remembered that I had been busy all night yesterday and it was already noon.

I was really hungry, so I checked the map and ate steamed buns at the same time.

Unknowingly, I ate three or four white-flour steamed buns.

"How about it, bro, are the logistics work in place?"

The fat man lit a cigarette for himself, "This planning and construction drawing was obtained from their library.

I heard the old man at the gate said that it was produced when the land was reclaimed.

There are strange things happening, I think it may be related to the ruins we are looking for.”

Hearing that Fatty had a clue, the three of us dropped what we were doing and listened carefully to his introduction to the situation.

"Things started in the second month when the Corps stationed in the oasis.

The first plan at that time was to reclaim farmland, obtain water, and obtain food.

But infrastructure construction cannot do without steel and metal.

It is deep in the desert and the transportation lines are tight.

Progress dropped quickly When the big furnace was about to go out, it happened that on the day when the steel-making furnace was about to be shut down, someone dug out a group of copper lumps from the field.

Stopped and pulled the large troops over to look for copper ore.

Don't tell me, just ask him to dig out more and more weird-shaped copper lumps, and finally they all end up in the steel-making furnace.

But something strange happened, too.

New copper lumps soon appeared in the ground, and their location and The size was exactly the same as what was dug out before.

The leaders of the group were so frightened that they thought they had seen a ghost.

They laughed and said that this was a good thing.

Go to production and construction.”

"What is the current situation of the copper pimple field where such a thing happened?

Is it still there?"

"I was about to talk about what happened next.

Don't worry."

The fat man dropped his cigarette butt and picked up another one.

"After the second batch of copper lumps were cleaned up, some soldiers who were very curious filed an application.

A tent was pitched on the mountain, ready to observe all night and uncover the copper lumps.

Who knew that late at night, the wind was blowing outside, and someone went out to see the situation, only to see yellow sand covering the sky, howling wind, and a faint green light flashing at the end of the endless black earth. , the man was so frightened that he pissed himself.

I immediately crawled back to the tent, holding the kerosene lamp, and didn't dare to move all night.

The next day, there were still copper lumps all over the ground, as if nothing had happened.

After the incident spread, some people added fuel to the fire, saying that the oasis was haunted.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have lasted for so many years It was deserted and uninhabited.

The archaeological team's original research was brought up to overturn the case, but the matter was quickly suppressed, and the Corps gave up on the mysterious copper field.

The daredevils also left the Green Sea one after another.”

This anecdote later became a bedtime story, and everyone just listened to it.

No one wanted to verify its authenticity, but it provided great help in our search for the ruins.

I picked up the map, pointed to the salt-alkali land to the north and asked the fat man: "Is the place he mentioned near this area?

There are three hump mountains around it, which look like a herringbone from a distance."

Fatty said that he was not sure of the specific location.

Most of those engineering soldiers had retired and left the area.

Even those who stayed might not remember it.

Shiry Yang looked at the map and asked me how I came up with the idea of ​​Camelback Mountain.

I spread out the restoration map I made in front of everyone: "The map left on the rice dumplings shows a mountain range in the shape of a mountain, which was the mineral vein at that time.

Zhenku City is famous for its metal mines, and residents gather around the mineral veins every day.

Several Large settlements are scattered around here.

Looking at this modern picture, the only thing that fits the situation is the hump mountain in the north. " Going into the mountains has become our first choice now.

But how to avoid single parameters has become a difficult problem.

Although he opened the door for us, it was mostly out of emotional guilt.

Researching data is one thing, fieldwork is another.

The fat man agreed with my analysis: "It's better to have one less problem than one more thing.

Let's just run away."

Shiry Yang hesitated: "It's more than fifty kilometers from here to Tuofeng Mountain.

It's obviously unrealistic to walk there.

At least ask Shan Shen to borrow a jeep."

"I will take care of the car.

You go to the market to buy some cold-proof supplies.

There is snow on the mountains, and the temperature is extremely low after nightfall."

We left the warehouse and walked out in a big way.

I was originally worried about being interrogated, but I didn't expect that it was so easy to get in and out.

No one stopped us along the way.

When I arrived in town, I went directly to the teahouse where the caravan stopped and rented a car from them.

After negotiating the price, they picked up Fatty and the others, and then drove to Camelback Mountain.

Embarking on the journey again, Shiry Yang seemed to be worried and sat in the passenger seat without saying a word.

I asked her what was on her mind.

She looked embarrassed and asked me: "Did we forget something important?"

The people in the car were confused.

I held the steering wheel and looked at her in confusion.

At this time, the fat man suddenly slapped his forehead: "Fuck, we lost the zongzi."

I held the steering wheel tightly.

The general's body disappeared for no reason.

They were not at the scene at the time, and they still don't know the truth of the matter.

According to Shiry Yang's character, if he knew about the corpse fraud, he would definitely ask to turn around and go back to the city to investigate.

"Shan Shen told me that the mummies will be stored properly, and as soon as the storm passes, someone will be sent to contact the museum."

I stepped on the accelerator, "Fortunately, Camelback Mountain has passed the road, and it will not take more than an hour to drive there.

You guys should squint first. , so I have enough strength to climb the mountain.”

Lao Chuai poked his head out from the back seat: "Let's switch.

You three have stayed up all night.

I'll drive steadily, and you can sleep peacefully."

I had nothing to refuse, so I climbed into the back seat next to the fat man and put on the military uniform.

Coat, he closed his eyes drowsily.

Thinking about the mysteriously missing rice dumplings, I have been feeling uneasy, but at this moment there is no room for any hesitation.

I don’t know why, but I always feel that the trip to Tuofeng Mountain is just the beginning.

The secrets buried in the ancient city of Zhenku are by no means as simple as what is recorded in the data.

Tuofeng Mountain is about 50 kilometers away from the Green Sea.

We arrived at the entrance of the peak at about three o'clock that afternoon.

After sleeping in the car, my head was much clearer.

I stepped out of the jeep.

The sky was clear outside and I breathed in the fresh air.

My whole body felt refreshed and I suddenly felt energetic.

Fatty and the others were already ready to go.

Shiryyang breathed a sigh of relief: "I've seen it.

The mountain road ahead has not been repaired for a long time and has long been abandoned.

We can only walk into the mountain."

Lao Chuai kept rubbing his arms beside him, probably unable to accept the cold weather for a while.

I emptied my bag and tried to make sure I could travel as light as possible.

Because the specific location of Tonggeda Field cannot yet be determined, I can only rely on experience and use the mountain map as a reference to lead the team forward.

The four of us gathered in front of the jeep and had a short meeting.

I briefly explained the current situation, took the southern foot of the mountain stream as the first target point, and started the trip to Tuofeng Mountain
