The regulations of Base No. 2 are much stricter than that of Base No. 1. Ever since Ning Xiaofan and his party moved into the living area, their scope of activities was basically limited to this area.Fortunately, the area of ​​the living area is large enough, and various facilities are relatively complete. Apart from a little freedom, there is nothing wrong with it.

What's more, Ning Xiaofan's hands are injured, and he is not suitable for strenuous exercise. He can take a walk near his residence at most. The rest of the time, he either watches TV to pass the time or opens his laptop to play CS.

Two days passed in a flash, and many teams arrived one after another, and this quiet living area became more and more lively.

In the past two days, Ning Xiaofan hadn't seen the little goblin face to face, but he heard that after the little goblin was sent to the clinic for examination, the residual poison on her body was not cleared, and she was still receiving treatment in the clinic.

Although Ning Xiaofan didn't like to see the little goblin very much, he was still a little worried about her. Later, he heard that her treatment effect was good, and he only needed to rest for a few days to recover, so he felt relieved...

At noon that day, Aunt Xiang received a call and hurried out without even having lunch, and did not return to her residence until evening.

When Aunt Xiang came back, she looked a little tired. After taking a bath, she went to rest early.However, before she returned to her room, she gave Ning Xiaofan a floppy disk, saying that it was information about the tiankeng, and asked him to check it by himself.

Ever since Ning Xiaofan witnessed the giant tiankeng on the top of Huangtouling, he has always been in awe of the giant tiankeng, and he is also very curious.

He also asked Aunt Xiang about the giant tiankeng, but Aunt Xiang seemed to have some concerns and always left him behind.

Aunt Xiang seemed to have something to hide, although Ning Xiaofan was puzzled, but he was not so ignorant, so he buried the question in his heart and did not ask further.

Right now, Aunt Xiang has explained that this disk contains information about the giant tiankeng. When Ning Xiaofan returned to the bedroom, he couldn't wait to open his notebook and put the disk into the drive disk.

Click to open the disk file, first a password box pops up, Ning Xiaofan enters the password according to what Aunt Xiang said, click lightly, and a new page pops up.Following that, two large characters appeared on the page—Top Secret!

Seeing these two large characters, Ning Xiaofan's expression became cautious involuntarily.

Click on the next page, and there are rows of text displayed on the page. After a few glances, it is about the regulations on confidentiality.

Ning Xiaofan used to be a soldier, engaged in the dangerous blasting industry, and is no stranger to the secrecy regulations. However, when he saw the punishment for violating the secrecy regulations, he couldn't help being stunned.

According to the general confidentiality regulations, there are only a few types of punishment for leaking secrets, such as dismissal, fines, and more serious ones, at most legal sanctions or something.

But the punishment for leaking secrets in front of him is a bit shocking, just four words, the leaker dies!

die?Ning Xiaofan felt a little unbelievable, now is a legal society, even if he commits a capital crime, he still has to pass the hurdle of the public prosecutor's law. right?

With full of doubts, Ning Xiaofan clicked on the next page.

There is a picture on the page, the image is very recognizable, it is a tiankeng, but the tiankeng shown on the image is not big, with a diameter of less than [-] meters, this point, from the ratio of the number of people standing beside the tiankeng It can be seen.

Shennongjia Tiankeng.

When Ning Xiaofan saw the words annotated under the picture, he was taken aback for a while, still thinking in his mind that the tiankeng in this picture is completely different from the giant tiankeng here, and it is probably the tiankeng in other places in Shennongjia.

Then turn the page, the page still shows a picture, the picture is still a tiankeng pattern, and there are still people standing beside the tiankeng, but judging from the ratio of the people to the tiankeng, the area of ​​the tiankeng in this picture is much larger .Of course, compared with the giant tiankeng, it is still nothing.

The text in the picture annotation is still the Shennongjia Tiankeng, but there is an additional data on the diameter of the Tiankeng, which says 225 meters.

Then click on the next page, still the picture of the tiankeng, the area of ​​the tiankeng seems to be much larger than the previous picture.The diameter of the tiankeng on the picture is 513 meters.

Seeing these three pictures of the continuously expanding tiankeng, Ning Xiaofan had a vague guess in his heart, but he was still not sure, so he clicked on the page a few times.

Without exception, the successively clicked pages are all pictures of tiankengs, and the data on the diameter of tiankengs keeps increasing as the pages are scrolled down.After clicking all the way to the last page of pictures, Ning Xiaofan saw an extremely familiar picture - a giant tiankeng!

Not only that, but this picture seems to have been taken at the top of Huangtouling, almost from the same angle of view as Ning Xiaofan.

The small tiankeng shown in the first picture is the giant tiankeng today?

Ning Xiaofan was a little surprised. How big is the small tiankeng, with a diameter of more than 100 meters? How big is the giant tiankeng?Just by visual inspection, the diameter may be several miles, right?Could it be that this tiankeng will grow up by itself?How can it be?

Ning Xiaofan was not surprised for long, and soon, the dense text and data on the next page solved the puzzle for him.

Shennongjia Tiankeng was discovered in 1972.At that time, it was a forest ranger and a local herb collector who discovered the tiankeng.

At that time, the two discoverers did not report the tiankeng to the organization, and the discovery of the tiankeng was only circulated locally.

In 1980, after receiving the news, the Hunan Provincial Geological Bureau sent a small expedition team to conduct a preliminary investigation on the Shennongjia Tiankeng. Due to insufficient equipment and other reasons, the expedition team only measured the diameter of the Tiankeng, but did not reach the Tiankeng. bottom.

After a lapse of 10 years, that is, in 1990, a scientific expedition team to investigate the savages came to Shennongjia Tiankeng again, and reached the bottom of the Tiankeng with the help of equipment, made further investigations on the geology and formation of the Tiankeng, and found that A cave was found at the bottom of the pit. Due to lack of time, logistics, and equipment, the expedition team only went 100 meters into the cave and stopped.

At the end of this investigation, all the information about the investigation of Shennongjia Tiankeng was submitted to the State Geological Bureau and the Institute of Biology, which attracted media attention.

Five years later, in 5, under the sponsorship of Xin'ao Group, the National Geological Administration, Jinghua University, Natural Research Association, Xiangbei Provincial Tourism Bureau, and Xin'ao Group formed a joint scientific expedition team to enter Shennongjia again and explore the sky of Shennongjia. A more extensive scientific research was carried out in the pit.

This joint expedition team went deep into the cave at the bottom of the pit about 1000 meters, and found a large number of stalactite landscapes in the cave, and found that there was an underground river in the cave, as well as some unknown insects, micro organisms, plants, etc., and brought back a large amount of ore for further research.

According to this investigation, the joint investigation team came to a preliminary conclusion that the Shennongjia Tiankeng is similar to karst landform, and it was formed at least [-] million years ago...

From 1999 to 2001, the New Australia Group and the State Geological Bureau conducted 13 inspections of the Shennongjia Tiankeng in more than two years.

The time ended in July 2001, when the first collapse of the tiankeng occurred, and the scientific expedition was forced to stop.

From 2001 to 2006, the tiankeng collapsed at least 2-3 times a year, and its area increased rapidly. Until April 2007, the tiankeng stopped collapsing and formed a giant tiankeng with a diameter of 4 miles.

After the collapse of the Shennongjia Tiankeng was stabilized, Xinao Group invested a huge amount of money in the name of scientific research and tourism development and reached a joint development agreement with the National Geological Administration, the National Tourism Administration, and the Natural Research Association.After completing all the legal procedures of the Land and Resources Bureau, the National Environmental Protection Agency, and the National Security Administration, they obtained the rights and interests of the long-term inspection of Shennongjia Tiankeng, tourism development, and some mineral development.

Time went to March 2008, Xinao Group broke ground in the periphery of Shennongjia and near the tiankeng, and began to build scientific research bases, which have continued until now...

The giant tiankeng evolved from the collapse in just a few years.

As for why the tiankeng collapsed?There is no further description in the information.

The next page is about the construction of the base and the internal construction of the tiankeng, and appended a lot of pictures inside the tiankeng, so that Ning Xiaofan has a certain understanding of some conditions inside the tiankeng..

There are not many pictures and descriptions about the internal information of the tiankeng, but Ning Xiaofan was pleasantly surprised to see the records about gems from the later information.

In this document, the gems that Ning Xiaofan has been thinking about have an official name, which is the same as what the fat man found out from Feng Zijun, a man in Tang suit. For Jurassic stone, chalk stone, Xinyuan stone and so on...

However, no matter whether it is the Heavenly Spirit Stone, the Earth Spirit Stone, or the New Essence Stone, etc., this document only uses the official name at the beginning, and the subsequent text descriptions are all replaced by the names of gemstones...

The information on gems is quite detailed, and it took Ning Xiaofan more than an hour to read all of them, which is many times more detailed than the information he got from the Koreans.In addition to the text description, there are also many pictures of talismans. After browsing, it opened Ning Xiaofan's eyes.

After reading the chapter on gems, Ning Xiaofan thought that this was the end of this information, but he never wanted to take it casually, there are still densely packed texts below.

After Ning Xiaofan lit a cigarette, he continued to browse down. This time, what he saw was not a surprise, but a shock.

The more he looked down, Ning Xiaofan's expression became more and more dignified. He forgot to smoke the cigarette in his hand, so that the cigarette burned his finger before he realized it.

After reading the information, Ning Xiaofan let out a long breath, lay down on the armchair, and found that his back was covered in cold sweat.At this moment, he finally understood why there was the word "top secret" at the beginning of this document, and why the penalty for leaking secrets would be the price of life!

The wages of avarice is death!Ning Xiaofan thought of this famous saying summed up by his ancestors, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his lips. Things have gone beyond his imagination. This time the prospecting trip will be more terrifying and dangerous than he imagined... …
