Secret Notes of a Mystery Investigator

Chapter 48 The Descendants of the Dragon Clan (10)
Head Chen said: "Academician Qi, do you think I will believe your words?"

Academician Qi said: "I don't know, and I don't want to force you, but I don't have any malicious intentions. How do you know this poem?"

Head Chen said: "I don't know."

Academician Qi said: "As early as many years ago, someone sent me a very old parchment. The minority characters on it were translated into this poem. I have nothing to do with Xinjiang, so I firmly believe that it is Yan Gong. Sent to me, since he is still alive in this world, we have to find him, because there is definitely a reason for him to do so."

Head Chen said: "I don't deny what you said, but I would like to ask you a little bit, why did you choose me? Is it just because we are doing investigation work?"

Academician Qi said: "The reason is very simple, who is your father in our research institute who has the best relationship?"

Head Chen thought without thinking: "Mr. Yan, they have been good friends for many years. And you, as you said, he is your master."

Academician Qi said: "It's good that you know, because I'm worried about one thing, in case Duke Yan does something here that is inconvenient for others to know, if you know, maybe there is still room for buffer."

Now we all understand his thoughts. It seems that Academician Qi is worried that Mr. Yan may carry out illegal activities here, and he is thoughtful and thoughtful.Head Chen said: "I see, Academician Qi, you are really thoughtful enough, you have actually considered all of this."

Academician Qi said: "I was deeply influenced by your father, and my way of doing things is very similar to him. In fact, you are also like this. Without a careful mind, how do you reason about those thousands of clues?"

It's good to talk about it, Xiaogu Renbao said: "If you are interested, then we will be a companion?"

We drove the camels to run quickly on the vast desert, and in front of us was the cavalry of little Gu Renbao.After running for an unknown distance, we saw a group of knights in black. They held swords in their hands and lined up. When they saw little Gu Renbao, someone came up to help them, but these people didn't seem to be surprised by us. Joining in, no one even gave us a second look.

Commander Chen said: "This is the attack formation, it looks like they are going to fight."

Little Gu Renbao came to us and said: "We are afraid of the White Feather Knights, so we must be prepared, these people are very difficult to deal with."

I asked, "Are they human?"

Little Gu Renbao said: "Of course they are human beings, but these people's abilities are really extraordinary. I don't understand how they do this. Fortunately, there are not many of them, otherwise it would be a disaster."

Head Chen said: "Little Gu Renbao, you didn't bring us here to see the formation, did you?"

Little Gu Renbao said: "Of course not, you will soon see an incredible scene."

His expression was a bit weird, and I felt uncomfortable looking at it, so I turned my head and ignored him.This waited until it was dark, and then it was bright and dark. Three days passed, and we stayed in this place with them for no reason.On the fourth day, Captain Chen finally couldn't bear it any longer, and went to Xiaogu Renbao and said, "Do you have any serious business? Do we have serious business to do?"

Little Gu Renbao said: "Don't worry, it's probably almost there." When he spoke, the dark clouds in the sky had already begun to gather together. Of course, it can't be said that this has anything to do with his words, because the desert sky has been changing since the morning. It's more hazy, but there are big dark clouds at the moment.Academician Qi said: "The sandstorm is coming."

I personally have a certain understanding of sandstorms, because there are occasional sandstorms in Beijing, but when the sandstorms in the desert start, I know that my thinking is too simple.The sky had already become dark and depressing, and the wind changed from weak to strong. Later, it was like pushing people away. Fortunately, we surrounded the camels in a circle.Then the temperature plummeted, and there were snowflakes wrapped in the yellow sand all over the sky. I really don't know what kind of weather this is, but it made me anxious.But what is even more unimaginable to me is that amidst the rolling thunder, an ancient castle with a strange shape suddenly appeared about half a kilometer in front of us. It was indescribably like a jar.Although the yellow sand rolled up by the storm is overwhelming, this unusually magnificent building is still clearly presented in front of our eyes.At this time, all the knights hiding beside the horse, regardless of the wind and sand, all prostrated themselves on the ground, not knowing what to pray for.

I don't know how long it took, the wind gradually weakened, and the sand pile around us suddenly became much higher.Looking at the old castle again, it is gloomy and misty, and the square windows on the huge circular wall are dark, without a trace of light coming out, making one really doubt whether this is a building exposed from hell.

Academician Qi stared at the castle for a long time, and suddenly said: "Xiao Chen, I can be sure that this building is a building on the back of the moon. American astronauts discovered this building when they first landed on the moon, but its The location is not on the side facing us, so no astronomy enthusiast has seen it. However, after the end of the Cold War and the exposure of a lot of top-secret information, we only knew that there was such a building on the back of the moon, but it belongs to all countries. It is an event with a high degree of secrecy, so ordinary people do not know about it, and only scientific research institutions in various countries have information in this regard."

Head Chen said: "That's really weird, why did it appear in the desert?"

Academician Qi said: "Who knows, and there is no such building in front of us, didn't you realize that it appeared out of thin air?"

Head Chen said: "Of course I saw it, that's why I think this thing is too incredible. How could the buildings on the moon appear on the earth out of thin air, unless it is the reflection of the light source? This is the only possibility."

Academician Qi said: "It's hard to say. Do you still remember the Tantric text incident you investigated? That is the reflection of the light source."

Head Chen said: "But it seems that Xiaogu Renbao and they should have entered here. It is impossible for the light source to reflect a real object?"

Ma Tianxing said: "Maybe it's the moon reflecting the image of our earth. I dare say that those American scientists don't have the guts to enter such an inexplicable place. At most, they walked around outside and took a few photos."

Team Leader Chen said: "What you said is not unreasonable, anyway, this thing came out weird enough."

Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a sharp pig cry, and saw two huge devil pigs appearing at the exit of the castle.They stared at this place covetously, and suddenly rushed towards us with hooves. Little Gu Renbao and the others suddenly became nervous, and immediately bent their bows and set arrows, and we also loaded our bullets and aimed at the giant pigs.Suddenly, a voice as thin as gossamer sounded beside my ears, and I only heard: "This matter has nothing to do with you, I hope you don't interfere in it, otherwise there will be no place for death."

Head Chen said to us: "Someone seems to have spoken just now?"

Before we had time to answer, the surrounding sand dunes suddenly turned, and more than [-] people in white turbans emerged from the gravel. They held silver shining swords and slashed at the man in black without hesitation.At this time, the sound of crying father and mother became loud, and the men in black were all focused on the two pigs, but they were suddenly caught off guard, and immediately fell down more than a dozen corpses. Although the men in white were quite handsome, The degree of cruelty is no less than that of criminals, it is really deadly.

After killing for a while, the men in white immediately stepped aside, and a man shouted at us: "Get out of the way, or you will die."

There was a vibration from the ground, and the giant devil pig was approaching. We immediately got on the camel and fled to the side.The man in black was not as lucky as us. The giant pig rushed into the crowd in an instant, overwhelming.I saw the men in black being thrown into the air one after another.

At the very moment, a man in black in the crowd shouted: "Little Gu Renbao, quickly lead the people to the east."

Da Luohan was immediately attracted by his voice, he smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect you to be here." After he whistled, more than a dozen snow-white horses galloped out of the castle.The man in black immediately ran for his life on two sides. On one side was the man in black who was speaking. He headed north alone, and the rest of the men in black all headed east. There were more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground. Very bloody.

The man in black rode his horse to the north and ran for a few steps, then bent down suddenly, waved his hand and threw something at the giant pig he was chasing, and saw a silver light, whirling towards the giant pig's legs.There was a soft cracking sound, blood splashed everywhere, and the giant pig ran a few steps on three legs before it fell to the ground with a snap, and then let out an earth-shattering roar.And the companion behind it, ran to the amputated leg and stopped immediately, opened his mouth and bit the companion's broken leg into his mouth and began to chew.And the man in black turned back and shot an arrow, and the arrow shining blue under the sun instantly sank into the giant pig's forehead. The giant pig grunted twice and fell to the ground.

At this time, the white horse had already rushed in front of the man in white, a dozen or so of them did not wait for the white horse to stand still, each of them flew on the horse, sweating for a long time, and said: "I will chase Xiao Gu Renbao, you will chase the rest." As soon as he swung the reins, he chased after each other. Both horses were so handsome that they disappeared in an instant.And the other side is chasing farther and farther, leaving us unclaimed.Academician Qi immediately rode on the camel and said, "I don't know when they will come back. Let's go in and investigate as soon as possible." No one dared to delay, and immediately went to the castle, and it took half a mile to arrive in no time.As soon as I approached the entrance, I suddenly felt a cold wind blowing slowly, in stark contrast to the temperature of the desert.

At this moment, regiment leader Chen said loudly: "The door is broken, it seems that the electromagnetic interference is gone."

We each looked at our watches, and it was back to normal. Academician Qi took out the compass, and there was no problem. He said to himself, "It's really strange. Could it be that this ancient castle has the function of dispelling electromagnetic pulses?"

After entering, we found a very strange feature. Judging from the external features, this should be a building with a very grand interior space, but it is not the case from the entrance.The entrance is narrow and dark, but there are at least four doors on the wall on the left hand side, because the inside is too dark, we turned on the flashlight, and suddenly saw a lot of murals on the other side of the passage.Those are very beautiful murals, but I can't tell what style it is, what meaning it wants to express, because there are all kinds of paintings.But the most attractive thing is the mural of a group of people fighting a beast.It was a kind of animal that had never been seen before. It looked a bit like a tiger in general, but its body hair was light yellow, and its body was much larger. The facial features on the huge head looked a bit like a human. It was very strange, but four The nails on the claws are very long, and they stand vertically and have a certain curvature, no less than a dagger.The other mural is a general, I looked at it carefully, and said: "Head, this general should be the one in the brocade, right?"

Everyone came over, and after comparing them, Captain Chen said: "Absolutely, although I have a vague impression of everything else, I still remember the appearance and the color of the sword in my hand. It is him. I remember Xiao Gu. Compona said that his painting was used to find the sword, I wonder if it is this one?"

I saw that the sword held by the general was extremely gorgeous. The hilt was carved into a soaring eagle, and the scabbard was full of strange and strange characters.After careful observation, Academician Qi said: "It's very strange. The shape of this sword is indeed the traditional shape of our Han saber, but the carving style of the hilt and scabbard is not. I don't know why this general of the Han Dynasty Holding such a strange sword, I don’t think this painting was painted by a Han painter.”

Ma Tianxing said: "Don't worry about other things, what I'm most curious about is where is that sword?"

Head Chen took photos around with a flashlight, but the ceiling was too high and the space was too deep for the flashlight to be of much use.He Zhuang took out a burning stick from his bag, pulled the string, and with a bang, the huge bright light instantly illuminated the dark space.There is only a long passage in our eyes, but there is no real shadow, at least no sword. Just when we were a little disappointed, He Zhuang bent down and picked up something, which was a diary.

This is an ordinary old-fashioned diary. The cover is made of thick kraft paper. It may be due to a long period of time that the cover has faintly yellowed, and a large part of the back cover is still missing.We turned to the first page, and there was a "serious work notebook" written on it. Academician Qi immediately took it over, looked at it carefully for a while and said, "Yes, it is the words of Mr. Yan, absolutely yes. It's really strange, we I saw those people and animals running in and out of here just now, and after all these years, this notebook has not been damaged?"

Head Chen said: "The things here can no longer be judged by common sense. I can see that any situation is possible."

Academician Qi said: "That's true." While talking, he turned the diary page by page, looked carefully, and turned to one of the pages, he said again, "Sure enough, it's exactly as I guessed, Xiao Chen, you have a look at this."

We all put our heads next to Head Chen. That page was a poem that I had memorized seriously, which was the one Xiao Gu Renbao showed us. But this is a complete poem, and there are a few paragraphs below. :
You try to cover up the truth, but the truth never dies.

You try to plunder our faith with swords, but our faith will not be destroyed with the disappearance of life.

Everything will start all over again.

13 - Dragon Tomb

Head Chen said: "These three sentences, why didn't Xiaogu Renbao tell us?"

Academician Qi said: "I don't know. In fact, I already knew these three lines of poems, because they were on the parchment sent to me by Mr. Yan. It is precisely because of these three lines of poems that I feel that there may be some bad things here." matter, so I have been hiding this investigation for a long time."

Head Chen said: "I finally understand what you mean, but even if it is a bad thing, it is a matter of the Han Dynasty and should have nothing to do with us."

Academician Qi said: "This is not necessarily the case. Judging from the style of this poem, I suspect it was written by modern people, but they may have legends left by their ancestors as a reference." As he was speaking, he suddenly heard a person say: "Xiao Qi analyzed it very well. It makes sense, but there is one thing, this poem was indeed written by the ancient Loulan people, it’s just my modern translation.”

We were shocked when we saw a white-haired old man standing at the entrance. Academician Qi took advantage of the sunlight at the entrance to take a closer look, and suddenly said excitedly: "Mr. Yan! Teacher Yan I finally see you." After saying that, he hurried forward and hugged each other tightly.We never thought that a scientist who had been missing for nearly 20 years would meet us in this place. Although it was a bit weird, academician Qi was clearly excited and chattered about something seriously.Seriously speaking, he was relatively calm. He shook Academician Qi's hand vigorously, then walked up to Head Chen and said, "Xiao Chen, you are middle-aged now, and you were still a teenager at that time. child."

Head Chen said respectfully, "Uncle Yan."

Nodding seriously, he glanced at us again and said, "These are all your colleagues, right?"

Head Chen quickly made an introduction, greeted us one by one solemnly, and said: "I really didn't expect you to find this place. Xiao Qi, you are too courageous. What if something unexpected happens here? ?”

Academician Qi was still very excited, he couldn't articulate his words clearly: "I just want to find your trace, no matter what...By the way, Mr. Yan, why have you stayed here for so long?"
