Everyone carefully inspected this magnificent underground palace again. Tang Feng found burnt ashes in the corner, which indicated that someone had lit a fire here.When Tang Feng walked to the west stone wall of the underground palace, he found another dark hole appeared on the stone wall, and the inside of the hole looked like a corridor.

The secrets of the underground palace are still spreading. Tang Feng took the torch from Han Jiang, and was the first to walk into this dark corridor. The inside of the corridor is wider than the door opening outside, and all of them are built of huge polished granite. Well, when the torch in Tang Feng's hand shone at the end of the tunnel, he was completely stunned. A stone gate appeared in front of him. To be precise, it should be a gate made entirely of jade!
Han Jiang, Liang Yuan, Yelena and Makarov were also deeply shocked by this jade gate. Tang Feng murmured, "It's actually a gate made of Hetian jade."

Tang Feng seemed to be attracted by the huge magic power. He walked to the jade gate, and his hands stroked the cold and smooth jade gate. Inadvertently, the jade gate opened...

Everyone was surprised, Han Jiang took a closer look, "There seems to be no lock on this jade gate at all!"

"Because it is a jade gate, there is no need at all. Jade is fragile. This gate is not used to block people who try to approach it. It is just to show the magnificence and majesty inside!" Tang Feng murmured As he spoke, he had already entered the world behind Yumen.

The dark space behind the Yumen Gate is too large, and the torch can only illuminate a small space at the entrance. Han Jiang found a groove for candles on the nearby stone wall, so he took out the candle he was carrying and lit it. As they walked forward, Han Jiang lit more and more candles, until they stopped, hundreds of candles lit up the whole palace, and everyone could see clearly that it was a huge palace. The rectangular underground palace is even more splendid than the previous palace they saw. The palace is a tall building supported by hundreds of huge stone pillars, and each stone pillar is shining with dazzling golden light. At the end of the palace, facing the The location of Yumen is a semi-circular square. At the end of the square is a high platform. On the high platform is a throne made of white jade. The edges and corners of the throne are covered with gold. Come on, shine brightly!

The five people were all shocked by this magnificent underground palace. Tang Feng opened his mouth halfway and looked up. There were exquisite Buddha statues carved on the top of each column and on the stone wall, pasted with gold and painted, which made him suddenly feel A feeling of being in the Paradise of Western Paradise.

It took a full 10 minutes before Tang Feng came out of the initial shock. He suddenly found that on both sides of the main hall, that is, on both sides of the passage they walked from Yumen to the semi-circular square under the high platform, there were two rather large The big pool, Tang Feng turned around curiously, walked to the pool on the east side, before he could look down, a huge chill came straight to Tang Feng's face, Tang Feng retreated, Han Jiang and the others surrounded him , were also forced back by the huge cold air, "This...why is the cold air in this pool so strong?" Han Jiang asked puzzled.

"That's right, even if it's underground, it shouldn't be so cold!" Yelena said.

Makarov also frowned, "But the water isn't frozen!"

Tang Feng plucked up his courage and lay down on the edge of the pool again. The huge cold made him tremble all over. He stretched out his neck and looked down. The deep water was pitch black, as if it was bottomless!

The unbearable cold continued to hit from below, Tang Feng was shaking violently, he wanted to look underwater, but was dragged back by Han Jiang and Liang Yuan, "You don't want to die!" Liang Yuan reproached with distress road.

"It's okay!" Tang Feng said it was okay, but his face was pale, his limbs were weak, and he slumped on the ground. After a while, he stood up with the support of Han Jiang and Liang Yuan.Everyone went to the high platform at the end of the palace, but they searched all over the high platform and found nothing except the white jade throne. Makarov couldn't help but wondered, "Could this be the treasure we found so hard? Is it the ultimate secret of Mi City? Is this what countless people are looking for at the expense of their lives?"

Came to the end of the underground palace, but did not find the so-called treasure. Makarov thought of his murdered son, and the belief that he had always insisted on walking collapsed in an instant. He could not accept the whole reality, and Yelena could not help but comfort him. he.

Liang Yuan and Han Jiang also found it hard to accept, but Tang Feng still maintained a calm mind. He had almost recovered, and walked around the semicircular square alone, saying as he walked, "Don't doubt, Micheng's The treasure must be here, but Yuan Hao doesn't want us to find it easily!"

"Oh! Are you so sure?" Han Jiang asked.

"Have you forgotten the tablets enshrined in the Temple of Immortality?" Tang Feng's voice echoed in the huge underground palace.

"Tablet?" Han Jiang immediately understood Tang Feng's meaning, "You mean this is the tomb of Yuan Hao and Empress Wuzang!"

"Yes, for thousands of years, people have believed that Yuan Hao was buried in the tombs of the Xixia kings at the foot of Helan Mountain, but in fact no one can accurately say which royal tomb is Yuan Hao's tomb. This is Yuan Hao's mausoleum!" Tang Feng was very confident.

"But didn't the body of Empress Wuzang be sealed in a Buddha statue by Liang Zuo, and was found in Heicheng?" Liang Yuan asked suddenly.

"Then why don't the skull and skeleton in the Buddha statue belong to the same person?" After Tang Feng asked back, he continued: "I think the ultimate secret is here."

After Tang Feng finished speaking, he walked to the south side of the semi-circular hall. He illuminated the stone wall in front of him with a torch, inspected it carefully, and knocked on the stone wall from time to time, but every stone wall seemed to fit perfectly. …Until Tang Feng discovered that two rectangular grooves appeared on one of the stone walls, Tang Feng was startled, and looked at it again, and there were also two rectangular grooves on the next stone wall. Tang Feng was not in a hurry To make a judgment, he checked the entire stone wall all the way, only four rectangular grooves appeared on the two middle stone walls.

Facing the groove on the stone wall, Tang Feng felt suspicious. He took two steps back and looked at the stone wall in front of him. He stood in front of the stone wall for a long time. With the flashlight shining on the stone wall again, Tang Feng saw it bit by bit—it turns out that in the middle of the entire stone wall, there are two groups of stone walls composed of four huge stones, which are the same as the entire stone wall. There are gaps, and just now I found that the stone walls with two rectangular grooves were arranged on two groups of stone walls. Tang Feng exclaimed in surprise: "There is a gate here!"

Everyone gathered around, and under Tang Feng's guidance, everyone saw the traces of the door on the stone wall, "Yuan Hao really didn't want us to find the treasure easily. We saw the Golden Gate and Yumen in front of us. When an even more unbelievable gate appeared, we were presented with an ordinary stone gate. If you don’t look carefully, many people may think that this is the end of the underground palace.” Han Jiang said excitedly.

Yelena pushed the stone wall in front of her with both hands, but the stone door remained motionless, "But how do we open this stone door?"

Tang Feng's eyes were fixed on the rectangular grooves on the stone gate, and suddenly he yelled, "I see, look at those four rectangular grooves! The size and shape of the grooves are not like jade screens. ?”

"What? Jade screen?" Everyone was shocked.

Everyone can see that it is the shape of the jade screen, but after a short period of joy, it is a huge disappointment, "The four jade screens are lost! How can we open this stone door?"

As soon as Han Jiang finished speaking, a voice suddenly came from behind everyone, "Let me open this stone door for you!"

The voice was in blunt Chinese, and everyone was horrified. Looking back, they saw a group of men in black rushing into the Yumen Gate. Surrounded by many men in black, a tall and thin old man dressed in black strode towards the crowd. come over.Standing behind him was Stechkin, but he didn't see the man in the cloak. Maybe the man in the cloak in the skeleton mandala was the old man. He should be the general!Tang Feng was thinking wildly in his mind, and instinctively pulled out his gun, Han Jiang and Yelena also pulled out their guns, but Makarov was unusually calm, he didn't pull out his gun, but took two steps forward, " Yuri, it really is you!" Hearing Makarov's old voice, Tang Feng immediately understood the identity of the old man in front of him, and he was Buldenko.

"Ivan, my old friend, how many years has it been since we met?" Burtenko walked up to Makarov and stood ten meters away from him.

"You...you have hurt me so much!" Makarov's voice was not loud, but full of anger.

"No, Ivan, what happened to Victor was just an accident, not my intention. If you want to join me now, it's not too late!" Bultenko was as confident as before.

"Actually... Actually, I should have thought that the 'general' was you!"

"Oh! I know White told all about us, this guy was never a spy material!" Burdenko mentioned White.

"No, White told us a lot, but he didn't tell you and died. I started to suspect you from bunker No. 21. I'm so stupid, maybe just like you said White, I also I’m not an agent, I’ve been in the forward base for so many years, yet I haven’t found bunker 21, nor your plot.” The more Makarov said, the more excited he became.

Buldenko laughed, "Ivan, you don't have to blame yourself too much. It was your luck that you didn't find out at the beginning. If you found out my secret back then, I'm afraid you wouldn't be alive today!"

"Hmph, maybe! In fact, in retrospect, you still showed a lot of clues, such as the tattoo, and you took me to the Valley of the Wild Wolf. However, although I began to doubt you in the No. 21 bunker, I have always One thing I can’t convince myself is that I personally collected the corpse for you back then, how could you not be dead? Could it be that there were not eighteen people on that helicopter?”

"Hehe, Ivan, there are eighteen people on the helicopter, and I am also on that helicopter, but I have prepared a dead person, a charred dead person!" Although it has been many years, Brdenko recalled When he got up, he still seemed very proud.

"What? A scorched dead man?" Makarov's voice trembled.

"Yes, I got a condemned prisoner who was about the same size as me. I burned him in the No. 21 bunker to look like a dead body in an air crash, and kept him in the No. 21 bunker!"

Tang Feng's heart was shocked by Burdenko's words. He recalled the black powder he saw in the morgue of the No. 21 bunker. At the beginning, this tiny detail did not attract his attention. Only now did he understand Those black powders are actually evidence that Bultenko stole the sky!
Burdenko seems to be willing to recall that incident, "I have been secretly training my students in the No. 21 base, but one day, a reliable message from Moscow told me that someone reported me, and it seemed that I was aware of it. So I had to make a decisive decision, and then I used the method of stealing the day to escape the golden cicada! I prepared the corpse in advance, and then when the helicopter flew to the hill above the exit of No. 21 bunker, I threatened the pilot to lower the altitude and risked a lot The risk of jumping off the helicopter, I tampered with the helicopter, when I landed, the helicopter crashed, I quickly entered the bunker, and replaced me with the charred body, and I hid in the bunker and waited. You go away!"

"So that's the case! But...but why did you do all this? Is it just to win the treasure of Mi City?" Makarov asked.

"Hmph, Treasure, Treasure, I want to get it, but I did all this not just to get Treasure, I did all this for my mother!"

"Mother?!" Everyone looked at Brdenko in shock, and in an instant, the entire underground palace fell into a terrible silence.

After a terrible silence, the general took out two yellowed black and white photos, waved them in front of everyone, and said to Yelena: "Miss Yelena, I think you must have seen these two photos, right?"

Yelena recognized these two photos at a glance, "Yes, I saw it at Brenning's house, and I guessed that the person in the photo was Brenning when he was young, but I didn't expect you to be on it!"

"That's right, I'm on top of this photo. This is a photo of us when we were in the KGB school, so I have Brenin and I!" Brdenko said and pointed to the young man who was struggling to throw a snowball in the photo , and then continued: "The difference is that for so many years, I have been hiding these two photos in the deepest place, the deepest part of my memory; but Brenning wants to put it at home, he thought no one would pay attention to it Photos, but he doesn't know that I will notice, you, you will notice sooner or later!"

"So you burned Brainin at home!" Yelena stared at the general bitterly.

"I'm helping him out!"

"relief?"

"Yes, relief! You have to understand why he keeps these two old photos at home, because these are the people and things that make him unforgettable!"

"You mean you...you are the person that Brenning will never forget!" Yelena suddenly remembered that in Brenning's home, these two photos were put together with the photos of his relatives.

"Brenning and I are classmates, and we are also the two best students in the class. We should both have a great future, but because of my appearance, his life has been changed."

"But... but Brening became a general later on, so he should be the most successful among you?"

"No, Yelena, you didn't understand me, Ivan, Tang Feng, Han Jiang, and this little girl, let me tell you all from the beginning! Speaking of the cold winter..."

Buldenko wrapped his body tightly with a coat, but the bitter cold wind kept pouring into his thin body. He walked alone on Nevsky Prospekt in Leningrad, thinking about it in his mind. Looking at his difficult years in the KGB, when he graduated from the KGB school, he thought that a bright future had already been paved in front of him. Background, no backing, no chance to display your talents, alone in a foreign land, not even a relative by your side!

Buldenko was thinking wildly, and walked to a street corner. Buldenko, who was just walking with his head buried, didn't notice the person who turned out from the other end of the street, and bumped into the person. On the wall next to him, there was an iron nail on the wall, which scratched the coat on Burdenko's body. This was the coat left by his mother. Seeing this, Burtenko became furious. Hold the gun tightly.

However, when Burdenko thought of his mission, he slowly extinguished the anger in his heart. He spit fire in his eyes and stared at the man, but did not move. The man was scared by Burdenko, who was shorter than himself. He stopped, but was finally overwhelmed by Brdenko's aura, and walked away in despair.

Buldenko was still standing in the cold wind, mother?Somehow, the beautiful and kind face of his mother flashed in Bourtenko's mind. He hadn't seen his mother for five years, and more precisely, he had lost contact with her for five years.In the past five years, there has been no news of his mother. Buldenko wants to cry but has no tears. He doesn't know where his mother has gone.But he thought his mother must have suffered some accident!
Burdenko tried every means to contact his mother, but no one knew her mother's whereabouts; he called the police, but it was useless. This unbearable isolation and anger reminded him of the great purges in the 30s. However, He himself is a member of the KGB... Thinking of this, Burdenko raised his spirits again. He believed that if he wanted to find his mother who had been missing for five years in this country, there was no department more effective than the KGB!
There were snowflakes in the sky, and before he knew it, Buldenko had already walked to the end of Nevsky Prospekt, and a magnificent palace appeared in front of him, the Winter Palace!For him, a child who grew up in Siberia, the glorious Winter Palace used to stay in the pictures and his illusory memory. In his childhood, he had dreamed of the glorious palace and endless art of the Winter Palace more than once. Treasures.However, today, when this splendid palace actually appeared in front of him, he was not interested, because he came here for his own mission.

For this task, Buldenko only had a vague idea: the higher-ups were very worried about a man named Misha, no, it should be a person named Boris who was very worried. Misha was his past name. The guy seemed to be doing something strange and special, so although two colleagues were already in charge of monitoring and protecting Misha, the higher-ups decided to send him to further strengthen the monitoring and protection of Misha, and to find out some strange things.
