summer market

"Who!" Gu Fengchun lifted his pants and stood up from the ground at once.He saw a figure approaching under the moonlight.When the man came over, his footsteps were very quiet, and there was only a slight rustling sound on the sand.

The man did not speak, but slowly approached.Gu Fengchun quickly saw the man's appearance clearly.The man looked no more than fifty years old.Under the moonlight, his gray hair was a little messy, his face was wrinkled and sad, his complexion was dark, and he looked a little sick. A pair of large-rimmed glasses were pinned on his high nose bridge, and he looked like an educated man. scholars.

This person was also wearing a gray Zhongshan suit. This kind of Zhongshan suit was once very popular after the founding of the People's Republic of China, but now not many people would wear this kind of clothes.Wearing such clothes is already a political status symbol.

Gu Fengchun took another look at the man's feet. He was wearing a pair of worn-out leather shoes, which looked like they had been worn for quite some time.He still had a military jug hanging around his waist, but as the man walked around, it was obvious that there was not a drop of water in it.

"Who are you?" Gu Fengchun frowned and said.He couldn't figure out the identity and purpose of this person from the outfit of this person.

"Is there any water? I'm thirsty." The man's voice was still hoarse.It stopped five steps away from him.

"Yes!" Gu Fengchun said loudly: "But you have to tell you who came first and why it appeared here?" There is a vast desert for hundreds of miles here, who would appear alone in such a place?Gu Fengchun really couldn't figure it out.Moreover, he didn't discover this person until he was about ten meters away, which is enough to explain the mystery of this person.

"Give me water first." The man sat down, crossed his legs, and panted while sitting on the sand. It seemed that he was exhausted.

Gu Fengchun thought for a while, this person should not have any malicious intentions, and he didn't carry any weapons on him.It would definitely not be a good thing to deal with Gu Fengchun with bare hands.Gu Fengchun was frightened by this man, and his stomach was no longer in a hurry. He took off the water bag on his waist, threw it towards the man, and said, "Drink, be careful, don't choke."

The man didn't speak, and was about to pull off the lid of the kettle, but failed a few times.He was a little anxious, and murmured: "Am I so tired that I don't even have any strength? I can't even pull out the cork."

Gu Fengchun frowned, very surprised in his heart, wondering if this person didn't know that the bottle cap was screwed? "It's enough to spiral counterclockwise." Gu Fengchun couldn't help reminding him.

Hearing this, the man was slightly taken aback, but quickly turned around, and after opening the lid of the kettle, he poured water into his mouth.Gu Fengchun's vigilance towards him also decreased a lot, and he slowly approached him.

Seeing Gu Fengchun approaching, the man's movements were a little hasty, and he gently covered his chest with his left hand, as if he had something valuable on his body that could not be discovered by others. "Thank you. If I can't find any more water, I will die of thirst." The man put down the kettle, let out a sigh of relief, and said to Gu Fengchun.

Gu Fengchun saw that although the man drank water urgently, not a drop of water leaked from his lips.Gu Fengchun approached him and sat down cross-legged.Said: "How did you appear here, there is no human habitation within two hundred miles!"

The man smiled lightly, without speaking, he stuffed the kettle into Gu Fengchun's hand, and said, "I'm leaving."

Gu Fengchun was startled again, and said: "Where are you going? How far can you go without water?" He paused, feeling that this person was very suspicious, and he obviously harbored some secrets, so he I don't want to say anything to Gu Fengchun.

But the man was about to stand up and said, "As far as you can go, anyway, the team can't go back. Going back, going back will only hurt them..." There was a bit of bitterness in these words. In Chun's ears, Gu Fengchun was even more puzzled.

"My name is Gu Fengchun, what's your name?" Gu Fengchun decided to get some secrets out of this man's mouth. "I am a member of the archaeological team who came to Lop Nur for archaeology." Gu Fengchun lied, pretending to be a member of his father's archaeological team.Gu Zhenting's archaeological team is close to the area of ​​the ancient city of Loulan, which is more than 500 kilometers away. Gu Fengchun believes that this person should not know about the archaeological team.

"Gu Fengchun, Gu Fengchun, what a good name, hey, I know a young man who is about your age, and he also does archaeology, but his name is more prestigious than yours, but his name is Gu Zhenting, do you know him? No?" After drinking the water, the man was obviously in a good mood.

"Gu Zhenting?!" Gu Fengchun's heart trembled wildly. "My father's name is Gu Zhenting!" Gu Fengchun almost yelled out this sentence.It's just that he heard a very strange sentence from this person's mouth, Gu Zhenting who this person knew was a young man. "Gu Zhenting from Bureau W?!" Gu Fengchun suppressed the trembling in his heart and asked cautiously.

"You, how do you know Bureau W?" The man's voice was obviously a little shocked, and he couldn't help taking a step closer.Judging from this action, this person has a lot to do with Bureau W, and the relationship is not trivial.

"Gu Zhenting is my colleague." Gu Fengchun nodded calmly: "We are now excavating a large city left over from ancient times, and now there is sufficient evidence to prove that it may be the site of the Xia Dynasty." Gu Fengchun While talking, while talking.

"Is Project 001 still going on?" The man's expression changed, and he said, "This is not acceptable, the plan must be terminated! No, I want to stop them!" The man's voice trembled a little.

"Why?" Gu Fengchun looked at the person in front of him in surprise. In fact, Bureau W and the higher-ups were already terminating the plan. Could there be something ulterior in this?

"Lop Nur is inexhaustible, absolutely inexhaustible..." The man sat down again and murmured: "Once it is exhausted, the things inside will seek a new evolution, from the state of plants to animals, It can even become a parasite, find a host to parasitize, and ultimately change the direction of human evolution, this is a means of destruction..." The man's voice was trembling, and he said slowly.

"However, Lop Nur has been exhausted, and now it has become a desert and saline-alkali land..." Gu Fengchun sighed and said slowly.
