endless route.

Chapter 347 117. Go to Ancient City No.

Night shrouds the Sunken Lake, with wisps of white mist lingering on the lake. The bright moon overhead casts moonlight, and the east and west campsites on the north and south shores of the lake are brightly lit, facing each other across the lake.

Wow.

There are ripples on the calm lake.

A large number of bubbles emerged from the bottom of the lake to the surface, and in the depths of the turbid lake water, the light of searchlights was looming, and they were rising to the surface of the lake at an extremely fast speed.

The explorers and archaeological team members who were on duty at the camp quickly discovered anomalies in the lake. The strong searchlight quickly changed its direction and projected bright light into the center of the lake.

Several kayaks patrolling the lake immediately emerged from the darkness, dragging white tail waves towards the light.

Both East and West.

The kayaks gathered on the lake, looking down to the depths of the lake, they saw a large number of figures swimming upwards covered in mud.

"Get out of the way, these are our people."

"Move your kayaks farther away."

The archaeological team's kayak had already received news from Li Wu and knew that this was a large force returning to the camp.

Western kayakers stopped and moved away.

Not long after, Zheng Yun, Li Wu and others finally floated out from the depths of the collapsed lake. After a long time, they saw the bright moon above their heads and the surrounding swamp rainforest again.

A group of people were like silver carp in the water, one after another pouring out of the lake, floating in a mess on the water.

The team members on the kayak quickly reached out and pulled them out of the water so that they could sit in the kayak and rest.

"It's finally out."

Ji Dao lay directly in the boat. Being active in the water for a long time was very exhausting and made him panting.

They had been in a Qili ghost dream before. They were highly concentrated and their body's hormones were mobilized by the strange scene. The body's automatic adjustment allowed them to ignore the feeling of fatigue.

Therefore, they never felt how tired they were until they left Qili Meng and returned to the lake to rest, and then the feeling of exhaustion swarmed out from all parts of their bodies.

"The helicopter is fine."

"The conditions are suitable for takeoff now, but we just have to wait a while while the helicopter flies over from the big camp."

Li Wu said quickly after being pulled onto the kayak.

"Then let's take a little rest."

Zheng Yun took a breath and looked in the direction of the camp.

"Let's have a meal, I'll let them prepare it." Li Wu took out the walkie-talkie to make arrangements, and the kayak returned to the camp.

Everyone returned to the camp one after another.

The conditions at the camp were good. The archaeological team remembered Zheng Yun's instructions and did not go out during Qili's strange dream. After the strange dream dissipated, they began to inspect the surrounding environment.

Zheng Yun and others took off their diving equipment on the shore and breathed natural oxygen again for the first time in a long time. However, their legs were a little weak on land, and even their walking posture was a little abnormal.

"It's killing me."

Ji Dao quickly pulled open the diving suit. His body was more generous than the average person. He could wear a regular-sized diving suit, but the flesh on his stomach was always being strangled.

And you can’t scratch it.

I always feel uncomfortable through clothes.

So as soon as he landed, he couldn't wait to pull off his diving suit, open the waterproof structure, and poke out an arm and half of his upper body from the tight diving suit.

Then it’s time to cross the water barrier.

Go into a special tent to cleanse yourself.

All people who come ashore must go through this step to wash away the mud and hidden insects all over their bodies, and even disinfect them several times to ensure their safety.

After some processing.

Zheng Yun was too tired to move.

But the medical team immediately stepped forward and took them to the medical tent to check their physical conditions.

Qiliguimeng can cause irreversible damage to the human body. It is like taking a stimulant, causing various discomforts and disturbances in heart rate and breathing after the body and mind regain calmness.

There are other side effects as well.

High-intensity nightmares accelerated the consumption of energy in the body, and all of them felt unprecedentedly hungry. At the same time, they did not feel the slightest desire to go to the toilet for such a long time.

I couldn't even hold in my pee.

Not once since last night.

These are very harmful situations. According to the standard recommendations given by the medical team, they need to take some pills to expel harmful substances from the body as soon as possible.

"This is too troublesome. It doesn't matter if you can't even eat for such a long time. Do you still have to go to the toilet first?"

Ji Dao muttered some resentment.

He also knows the extent of the development of modern science and technology, and knows that modern medical treatment must be correct, but he just wants to eat.

"You can do both too."

Li Wu patted Ji Dao and handed over the lunch box.

"Let me see."

Ji Dao immediately took the lunch box, opened it and took a look, then his expression changed slightly: "Is this what you guys are going to eat?"

"You can have meat and vegetables, but that's not enough? This is the standard meal for the entire archaeological team. This is what everyone eats."

Li Wu said with a smile.

Ji Dao glanced down again. The lunch box was the most common self-heating lunch box, with rice and eggs, and some red meat and vegetables. It was probably made in the cafeteria.

It’s not that it’s bad.

It just makes people lose their appetite.

But Li Wu said this, Ji Dao couldn't say anything else. The archaeological team was not here to have fun and have fun. It was already good to have a hot meal. How could there be big fish and meat.

"Master Dao, come here."

Huzi called from outside the door.

Everyone walked out of the medical tent and looked at the bonfire by the lake. Song Wan and Hu Zi knew Ji Dao's character and had already taken out the meat they carried and started grilling it on the fire.

wisps of fragrance wafting by the lake.

The sound of grease sizzles.

Jidao immediately beamed, trotted to the campfire and sat down, staring at the meat on the fire, wishing that time would pass faster and quickly roast the raw meat into mature meat.

"Any more?"

Zheng Yun sat down by the fire.

In addition to them, there are also a large number of young members of the archaeological team who have stayed up all night in the guard camp. It is not appropriate for them to run small stoves here.

"The quantity is not enough."

Song Wan shook her head slightly and replied in a low voice. She immediately understood what Zheng Yun meant and wanted to give the archaeological team a point.

"You guys eat."

Zheng Yun nodded and went to get a lunch box. Since the quantity was not enough, he would set an example and not eat. He would eat the same meal as the archaeological team and let Jidao and the others eat.

While the two were talking in a low voice.

Li Wu and Hu Ruihua also walked to the bonfire, and many young archaeological team members sat around Zheng Yun, asking about Zheng Yun's findings deep in the ruins.

The atmosphere and profession of the archaeological team are different.

Normally, Hu Ruihua would have stopped Huzi and the others from asking any more questions, because there are rules in the industry.

But the archaeological team has no such statement. They are all conducting archeology on behalf of the government. There are no personal issues in the team. Everyone has the same goal, which is to protect cultural relics.

There's no point in hiding it. Every member of the archaeological team carries a recorder with them, which will be handed over for review afterwards.

Only under special circumstances, such as magical phenomena that cannot be explained by science in the ruins of gods and ghosts, or some shocking secrets that cannot be leaked, will they be concealed.

In this case, the recorder they carry will also be sealed and processed, and all team members who have witnessed the strange phenomenon will check it together and keep the secret together.

Only leaders at Xu Yu's level can know the entire process in the ruins. In addition, no one else can learn about the strange situation through any means.

But this is the minority.

And even if you want to hide it, you only need to hide the key parts. The other exploration processes can still be talked about.

Therefore, in the archaeological team, the seniors who came out from the depths of the ruins not only did not hide their experiences, but even took the initiative to tell them to the younger team members most of the time.

In this atmosphere.

Young teammates are asking about Zheng Yun.

Compared with other members of the archaeological team, Zheng Yun is very young, but his youth also means that he is easier to talk to and is closer than the seniors like Zhang Qiufu.

Zheng Yun experienced this kind of atmosphere for the first time. A group of people gathered around him, and everyone had curiosity in their eyes.

Their problems are also varied.

For example, what did Zheng Yun do to make the Western expedition so angry? What did they discover in the deepest part of the underground? How did they deceive the Westerners to get there first?

They also understood what happened just now.

Zheng Yun, Jidao and the others actually walked openly into the thief cave that the Western expedition team was digging, walked around in a circle without anyone noticing, and walked out again.

You must know that at that time, Westerners were digging holes, and a group of people surrounded the holes and drilling machines. There was no possibility that they would be left unattended and that a loophole would be exploited.

That in this case.

How on earth were Zheng Yun and the others able to deceive the watchers and fool the Western expedition team?

When the team members asked, their tone was full of curiosity, and at the same time, they expressed strong expectations and a common hatred for the expedition team. They hoped that Zheng Yun could give the "most relieving" answer.

Facing this circumstances.

Zheng Yun really couldn't refuse.

But this question is difficult to answer. Zheng Yun can't always say that he transformed from the contemporary Jianxian Si into the ancient Jianxian Si in Qili's strange dream, and was followed by a group of gods, ghosts and ancient people.

Then with the help of many demons and ghosts.

Scared the Western expedition away alive.

If you say this, it may also expose the existence of the Immortal Sect, because from the perspective of the Western expedition team, they only have four people from beginning to end, and no one else follows them.

The expedition team did see the ancient supervisors and ancient gods and ghosts, but they may not have thought of Zheng Yun and others, and it was difficult to think that all the ancient gods and ghosts were real Yin soldiers.

The most critical thing here is.

At that time, the underground palace was full of silt, so dense that it covered the sky and earth. Even if the Western expedition team carried recorders and other equipment, it was difficult to record the Yin soldiers from a long distance.

Qili's dream can be seen because Qili's dream is very special. He can see things that cannot be seen in reality without using vision, only through the mutual infection of nightmares.

And in real environment.

The logger cannot penetrate the silt.

Only in the corridor and at the entrance of the pit, when the two sides met for the first time, they could see many Yin soldiers wearing diving suits and equipment near the pit, but they did not know the number.

Therefore, Western explorers actually do not have enough evidence to connect Zheng Yun Yin Bing and Dream Supervisor Xian Si, unless Zheng Yun is here and tells it from a relevant perspective.

As long as he takes the initiative to say it.

News leaked to the West.

Only Western explorers have enough evidence to make this kind of conjecture, but if it is just the ancient Jianxian Si and the Yin soldiers colluding, it is not harmful and is not a very serious matter.

The Eastern Archaeological Team entered Qili Weimeng and transformed into the appearance of the ancient Jianxian Si. This is a normal situation in itself.

The only hidden danger is that the fairy gate is guessed.

So you should try your best to avoid this situation.

"Ask others. These key information cannot be disclosed. There are confidentiality regulations. Please understand."

Zheng Yun declined this part of the question.

Even if these contents are given to the archaeological team, they are absolutely confidential information. Only Xu Yu can know a little bit about it and must not be told to the outside world. The confidentiality level is the highest level.

So everyone can understand.

Then start asking other questions.

Zheng Yun picked up the lunch box and talked to them about what he could. If he couldn't, he had no choice but to refuse.

Finished the meal.

The sound of a helicopter just sounded in the distance.

Three helicopters flew straight to this place from the main camp of the Gubo archaeological team, with searchlights flashing and hovering above the collapsed lake.

At almost the same time.

Xu Yu called Zheng Yun and briefly inquired about the reason why they wanted to go to the No. 3 Ancient City Camp immediately and the situation of Gubo in the No. 3 Ancient City District.

First comes the helicopter.

Later I called and asked.

This is undoubtedly another favor from Xu Yu. This senior can always use various methods to send favors at critical moments that people cannot refuse but accept.

Zheng Yun took it all.

Mr. Xu really cares about himself very much, and it can be seen in many places. He really has to keep it in his heart.

Zheng Yun also answered truthfully.

The Royal Museum has discovered the tomb chamber and sarcophagus. This is news that cannot be concealed. Even if you don't tell it now, the Royal Museum archaeological team will have ways to learn the details.

At most it's at night.

Therefore, there was no point in concealing it. Zheng Yun directly informed Xu Yu of the incident, and also informed Xu Yu of the speculation that there might be an alien civilization in the sarcophagus.

Xu Yu didn't say much. After understanding the situation, he immediately started arranging the work. Gu Bo also had a team in the No. 3 ancient city area and could quickly find the royal expedition team.

I don’t know what Gubo will do.

But they also have their own arrangements.

After hanging up the phone, Zheng Yun and others boarded the helicopter one after another, followed by Li Wu, Hu Ruihua, Song Wan and others, who also brought a dozen young members of the archaeological team to see the world.

The helicopter took thirty people into the air and headed straight through the night to Ancient City No. 3. The vast swampy rainforest lay beneath them, with a layer of mist separating them from the helicopter.

The ancient city of Nanze is very dark at night.

The endless rainforest is shrouded in darkness and silence, with only a few explorer camps emitting faint lights scattered across dozens of kilometers of deep rainforest.

Looking down from above.

The lakes and rivers in the rain forest intersect vertically and horizontally, reflecting the moonlight and emitting silvery white light, dotted throughout the rain forest, becoming the only reference object and position coordinate in the dark rain forest.

The helicopter kept moving forward along a stream. The river went from wide to narrow, then from narrow to wide, and gradually became extremely vast, converging into a huge lake at the end.

Ancient Town No. 3 is just to the west of the lake.

This place is different from the No. 2 Ancient City. They are located in two directions of the main city of Nanze Ancient City, but they are both in the south of Nanze Ancient City. It is like a satellite city guarding the main city.

The strategic intention is clearly visible.

Ancient city areas No. 2 and 3 are all guard passes. Perhaps hundreds of years ago, there were city walls connecting them to each other.

It shouldn't be wrong.

The situation in Ancient City No. 3 is exactly the same as that in Ancient City No. 2. The only problem now is how they should snatch the Sarcophagus Immortal Tower under the eyes of the Royal Museum.
