Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 6 Horror Recordings
The man in the suit didn't explain too much, he just asked us to bring some clothes, and he would prepare other supplies.

I don't have much stuff. When I came to the army with Company Commander Chen, I only had a few clothes. After three years, I couldn't wear them anymore. So I wrapped a set of grass-green military uniforms and "Star Officer's Essentials" and packed them up.

At noon, we were eating steamed buns vigorously, but the uncle in a suit gathered us in a tent, and when we arrived, we found that Company Commander Chen was there.

I was a little surprised to see Company Commander Chen. He was in charge of all the affairs of the unit. Unless there was something very important, he would not leave easily, otherwise the whole unit would not be able to move around.

But since he came, he should have made arrangements!
The man in the suit let us sit casually, and then gave each of us a can of milk, three boxes of canned luncheon meat and a pack of chocolates.

We held it for a long time without daring to eat it. You must know that the food in the army at noon today is considered good. It is just soft steamed buns dipped in some chili noodles. The food he gave us is not good enough to eat in 800 years. Things, now he takes out so many things as soon as he takes them, our hearts are beating.

"Isn't it a meal with a severed head?" Little Shorty held the can of meat tightly, muttered something in a low voice, and immediately drew the eyes of others. Now everyone is confused, isn't he adding to the confusion by saying that?
The man in the suit flicked the cigarette ash, and said straight to the point: "From now on, you can call me Lao Yan. This trip to Lop Nur is of great importance, so you have to write something before going."

After he finished speaking, he gave each of us a pen and a piece of paper. I curiously asked him what to write. He smiled strangely, and uttered two words along with the smoke ring: suicide note!
We were all stunned, looking at the drool-worthy food in front of us, we all had a thought in our hearts: This is really a meal with a severed head...

But soldiers pay attention to absolute obedience, and it is not uncommon to write a suicide note before setting out some dangerous missions, so we wrote the suicide note seriously without asking anything, and then finished the "decapitation meal" with anxiety and followed Old Smoke got into a truck.

There are a lot of cans and water piled up in the back of the truck, which seems to be the supplies for this mission, and there are several large wooden boxes piled up in front of us.

"Open it and have a look." Lao Yan raised his chin.

Chen Lianchang lifted the lid of the box, his face was happy and then changed!

I looked towards the box, and there were all Type 56 submachine guns inside, which were much more advanced than the Type 56 and a half we used.We have heard about this thing in the army for a long time, but such good things will be given to the brothers on the front line, and we can only drool over it.

I saw that there was a quota of two for each person, and then I saw that there was a row of grenades next to them. Although each person could only be allocated one, the firepower was still high.

No wonder Company Commander Chen reacted that way. As a soldier, he couldn't put it down. It's just that we went to the desert with such fierce firepower. Could it be that we are going to fight?

But it's not easy for us to ask if Lao Yan doesn't say anything, only Company Commander Chen frowned tightly looking at the pile of weapons.

After distributing the guns and ammunition, the truck started and bumped all the way to Lop Nur.

For the next half a day, the truck kept going to the desert, and we felt even more strange. Even if it was a war, it was impossible to be in the desert. What was this going to do?
"Leader." Company Commander Chen couldn't hold back any longer: "We even wrote a suicide note, so you should let us know what we are going to do."

Lao Yan took a puff of his cigarette, seemed to be thinking about how to answer, and after a while, he exhaled smoke rings and said, "We went into the desert this time to rescue a professor named Yu Chengze."

professor?

We looked at each other in blank dismay. This is a rescue mission. Isn't it the most important thing to bring? First aid medicine and supplies?What to do with so much firepower.

Lao Yan saw our doubts, and said slowly: "Professor Yu was ordered to come to Lop Nur to investigate the historical sites, but all the expedition teams he brought lost contact after entering the historical site, leaving only a recording that Professor Yu sent back. The higher authorities suspect that this matter is not simple, and it will not be an ordinary rescue mission."

Monuments?

I frowned. We have camped here all year round, and we have never heard of any monuments in the vast desert.

But Lao Yan obviously didn't mean to explain. He only said that according to the recording that was sent back, this rescue mission was extremely dangerous, so let's cheer up.

The next thing to go may be the front line!

Chen Lianchang said: "What kind of recording is it?"

I'm also curious about what kind of recording can make the above dial down such a strong firepower.Weapons these days have quotas. For us, the 56-type semi-automatic rifle strapped to our bodies every day is already a treasure. I am afraid that it will be bumped.

Lao Yan glanced at us, then took out a tape recorder from the backpack behind him, put his hand on the switch: "After listening to the tape, you can decide to stay or not, but you must keep what you hear a secret, otherwise..."

We don't need him to say that we also know the punishment for leaking secrets in the army, so we all nodded in acceptance.

Lao Yan pressed the play button, and then I heard a voice that I will never forget in my life!

At the beginning of the recording, someone gave two voices. It should be tuning, but the signal is very bad. The voice is mixed with the piercing electronic sound. If you don't distinguish carefully, you can't hear someone talking at all.

Then came intermittent voices, someone should be recording something, and I faintly heard words such as ancient country and shock.

It was recorded for about a minute, and then all sound suddenly disappeared, but the tape was still rolling, obviously the recording was still going on.

About half a minute later, the sound came from the tape recorder again, it was the kind of piercing electronic sound, which made the ears of the listeners hurt.

"This..." Company Commander Chen frowned.

Lao Yan made a silent gesture, suppressing the curiosity of all of us.

"what!"

At the same time that Lao Yan withdrew his hand, there was a short scream from the recorder, as if he was suddenly strangled by something in the middle of the scream, and the follow-up was abruptly stopped.

Before I had time to think about what happened, more noisy voices came from the tape recorder. About a dozen people screamed one after another. Without exception, their screams did not last long, and half of them were choked. It was broken, the whole process took only a few seconds, and then there was a dead silence.

What made me feel chills all over was that there were waves of roars mixed with their screams.I was horrified to hear this sound, but I couldn't tell what it was. I only felt that it was a bit like a human, but more like the roar of some kind of wild beast...

After the recording was played, there was a long silence, and no one knew what to say, but it was not difficult to see that everyone was even more uncertain about this rescue mission.

In the end, Lao Yan broke the silence and asked if anyone wants to quit now?
After all, the six of us are all from the army. Although we are a little apprehensive in our hearts, we will not run away. Besides, we have been walking for a long time, so what Lao Yan said is probably just a test.

The truck kept swaying, but the atmosphere inside the car was extremely depressing. The short screams and roars of beasts kept echoing in my mind, and I became more curious about this mission.
