Secret Notes of a Mystery Investigator

Chapter 51 The Descendants of the Dragon Clan (13)
After walking for a while, Academician Qi said: "Xiao Chen, what are you doing? You are so afraid of death, do you want to see the truth be covered up like this, and the whole Chinese people be deceived by him alone? Longmai... Longmai is simply absurd."

Head Chen said: "It's not that I'm afraid of death. You should be able to see that he has already covered the sky with one hand here. Are we just going to die in vain like this? You should know that if we are killed in the desert, even the martyrs will die." I can't recognize it."

Academician Qi said: "That's a good word, but are we really going to let it go like this?"

Commander Chen said: "Can it be forgotten? It's just a matter of retreating, and this coffin has touched me a lot. I guess it's the general inside."

Academician Qi said: "It does look like it, but why did he give this to us, and why did he let us go so easily?"

Captain Chen said: "The reason is very simple. If there is really Flying General here, then he is likely to come out and kill us. Of course, this is just my personal guess. I still have many doubts that I haven't figured out."

Academician Qi said: "Oh, if there are any doubts, please tell me."

Head Chen said: "First of all, this so-called Dragon Tomb, logically speaking, Duke Yan has already realized that this place is really different, otherwise he wouldn't have the guts to fool the common people across the country, but why didn't he Come on, it is doubtful what he was looking for.

Secondly, who are Gu Renbao's gang?We all know that Luo Khan is the Loulan royal family guarding the Dragon Tomb, so what does Gu Renbao do?Guard the Flying General?It seems that it should be, but why does the Flying General need someone to protect him?He is an assassin himself. According to common sense, he should be a person who pays great attention to concealing his identity. If he chooses a group of people to guard him in such a high-profile way, is there something wrong with his brain? Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty should not use such a high-profile assassin to accomplish such a thing. Important assassination mission, right? "

After listening to Chen's analysis, Academician Qi said: "Xiao Chen, you have a very good brain. It's not like we are just a ball of paste. That's true."

Head Chen said: "Because I haven't understood these two points yet, I don't think we should die casually. After all, there are more important truths waiting for us to investigate."

As soon as I finished speaking, the coffin suddenly made a weird "click" sound, and I felt a chill in my heart. Head Chen said vigilantly: "Everyone, be careful, if it is really haunted, everyone will be in trouble."

At this time, the clicking and clicking sounds in the coffin became more and more intensive, just like the sound of scratching the planks of the coffin. It seemed that the things inside couldn't wait to come out.Head Chen gave He Zhuang a wink. He got off the camel and walked to the coffin. Those of us who could hold a gun raised a gun, and those who could hold a knife took a knife. He Zhuang drew out his knife again. There is no color anymore.He opened the coffin with his hands, and stepped back quickly, only to see smoke billowing up from the coffin, and he couldn't see the situation inside clearly for a while. vice armor.

We looked at each other, and after a long time, Ma Tianxing said: "Could it be this armor that made the sound just now?"

Head Chen said: "Since Mr. Yan handed this thing over to us, I'm sure he has no good intentions, but now I really don't understand what's going on."

Endless doubts hit us again and again, the fiery clouds in the sky gradually receded, the desert began to become dark again, and everything seemed to be normal again.

15. The Secret of the General's Tomb

Faced with these extremely strange phenomena, we didn't know what to do. Head Chen said, "Academician Qi, what do you think of this matter?"

Academician Qi said: "Everything is hard to say now. We have no direction to choose, but these things are antiques, and we must take them all back. They are national property."

The temperature in the desert dropped sharply at night. We set up our tents and prepared to rest, but before we could lie down, both Vulcan and the camel cried out inexplicably.We went out of the tent at the same time, and saw that in the vast yellow sand, we couldn’t see any life forms except ourselves, but Vulcan nestled beside Axue and trembled very violently. This was the third time we saw it and was frightened .

I said: "What's the matter, did Qiu Yin come here again?"

Axue ignored me, and said directly to He Zhuang: "Brother Zhuang, the first time Vulcan was frightened was definitely not because he saw Qiu Yin. Qiu Yin is the messenger of the dragon. Animals are not afraid of it, but respect it. Huo The first time and this time, God seems to have discovered something before being frightened, if it was really Qiu Yin, then it would not bark like this at all."

He Zhuang nodded and said: "That's true. We all ignored this detail. When Vulcan saw Qiu Yin, he didn't make any sound at all."

At this moment, Academician Qi said loudly: "It's broken, we met a thief, and the armor is gone."

We rushed over there in a hurry, and sure enough, the copper coffin was empty, there was nothing left. Head Chen said: "This is really crazy."

He Zhuang said: "Captain, that member of the White Feather Knights, have you ever thought about who killed him?"

Team leader Chen said: "I really haven't thought about it. Except for Luohan, none of their group of people came back. It stands to reason that Gu Renbao's group can't deal with these people."

He Zhuang pointed to the coffin and said, "This armor was taken away by its owner."

Head Chen said: "That's not what you said. Let's assume that Gu Renbao and his gang are really protecting General Flying Heaven, so why does he ask us to take things away? Is it necessary to let his master run more?" A way?"

He Zhuang said: "Perhaps they are afraid that they will be murdered?"

Commander Chen said: "That's even more unreasonable. They have guarded this general for thousands of years, don't they even have this bit of confidence?"

He Zhuang said: "Since he dares to kill the dragon, then he is a person against the sky. This kind of person will never seek death. Compared with Tai Sui and Sha Shen, he is not much better."

Head Chen said: "Maybe, I can't see it anyway, everything is just speculation. Now we should think about how to expose Duke Yan's lies."

Academician Qi sighed and said, "It's not that I poured cold water on him. Since he can let us leave alive, it means that he has full confidence. In fact, his idea is also correct. If that ancient castle is really a dragon tomb, then he There is absolutely no doubt that there are dragon veins here, and if we rashly go out to refute rumors without him doing anything, the common people will scold us to death."

Head Chen said: "That's true. It seems that we have no choice but to enjoy his great discovery."

Academician Qi said: "If this is the case, it doesn't matter. After all, give the people a reason to talk about. Even if it is a lie, it can also encourage people's hearts and enhance national cohesion. I am afraid that if there is something in it Conspiracy, then big trouble."

Head Chen was stunned and said: "Academician Qi, we all know that Mr. Yan is an expert in physics, thermal engineering, and mechanics. You are his student, and your achievements in this area are also top-notch. Although I don't know much about science, Many, but I know that you also have a considerable say in the nuclear field, right?"

Academician Qi said: "Of course, these disciplines of ours are the basic disciplines of the nuclear industry. What's the matter? What's your problem?"

Head Chen said: "My question is why did you carry out this scientific investigation, because as far as I know, there seems to be a reason?"

Academician Qi said: "That's right, one is because of the Loulan ruins, because there have been rumors of radioactive substances there, so my research on the Loulan project is not to grab the historian's job. The other is to look for Yan Gong, but as you said Seeing this goal, I have accomplished it.”

Head Chen said: "You didn't understand what I meant, I mean why did you suddenly think of looking for Duke Yan?"

Academician Qi said: "This can't be regarded as a whim. Didn't I tell you? Have you ever received a piece of kraft paper from him with his half-baked riddle poems on it?"

Head Chen said, "Is that piece of paper on you?"

Academician Qi took out a piece of yellowed kraft paper from his inner pocket and handed it to Head Chen.Head Chen looked at it carefully and said, "No wonder you are so confident in the map. It turns out that Duke Yan has already drawn it for you."

Academician Qi said: "That's right, I zoomed in on the map he gave me."

We have all seen that behind the kraft paper is a sample map book, even the place names are marked.

Head Chen pondered for a long time and said: "Academician Qi, I can tell you this. Although I haven't figured out what is so strange, there is one major premise that I can basically be sure of. That is, Duke Yan did come here with a purpose. This purpose is definitely not the dragon veins he said, and he must have brought you here for this purpose. Now he must be watching us, I dare say we will meet again soon, as for the dragon veins and special substances he said before They all lied to us."

We were taken aback again, and Ma Tianxing said, "So Yan Gong deceived us again and again, and the dragon veins are not the ultimate truth? But the leader, what is your argument that Yan Gong will follow us? Even if they want to track them in such an open desert, it may be difficult, and the most terrible thing is that there is serious electromagnetic interference here. Even if he has the most advanced positioning and tracking equipment in his hand, he has no chance to use it. Why do you call him Will follow us?"

Head Chen said: "Correct you first, I didn't say he would follow us, I just said we will meet again, it's not difficult to understand, the map is given by him, you follow the map route he gave you Go, all he has to do is to run in front of you and wait for you."

Ma Tianxing said: "He let us go first, and then ran in front of us to intercept us. Captain, do you think Duke Yan is an idiot?"

Head Chen said: "Of course he is not an idiot. He has his reasons for doing so. Of course, I am still not clear about this, but I believe my inference."

Ma Tianxing said: "Then if we take a detour, wouldn't they wait in vain?"

Head Chen said: "He has already calculated that we will not take a detour. All he has to do is wait for us to deliver it to our door. The reason is very simple. Our food and water sources are not enough to sustain us to open up a new route. Of course he knew we wouldn't take the risk, and I don't think he thought I'd guess what he was doing, because the hole was so small that it wouldn't have been possible if I hadn't played at a super level. I want to understand this truth. In the same way, Duke Yan also made a mistake that he himself did not realize."

Academician Qi sighed and said, "Xiao Chen, I'm old and my brain is really not working well, let's see if your guess is accurate?"

Head Chen said: "Well, everyone can relax their vigilance. I can assure you that we won't encounter any trouble until the next time we meet with Mr. Yan."

The facts were exactly as Captain Chen said, and there was really no trouble coming to the door in the next few days.We were also relieved easily, but in my heart I had a little suspicion that the inferences made by Head Chen might be wrong, because we didn't feel even a trace of strangeness from it.However, on the afternoon of the third day, our opinion of Commander Chen had a qualitative change. In a vast desert area, we saw Gu Renbao and his gang.

I can't tell why, anyway, I just feel that this place is a bit familiar, as if I have known each other.Academician Qi said to Head Chen: "Xiao Chen, I really convinced you, so can you figure out whether they have malicious intentions or good intentions?"

Head Chen said: "My opinions are all obtained through deduction, not by fortune-telling. You must not think of me as a great fairy."

While talking, I saw Yan Gong walked out of the crowd, and he looked at us quite proudly.Head Chen got off the camel and walked in front of Duke Yan and said, "Mr. Yan, you have already decided to get your students involved more than 20 years ago, right? When you took your notebook and thought about doing this game that day, what did you finally want to achieve?" What? Can you tell us and let us listen?"

Duke Yan's complacent smile suddenly changed, and he was a little surprised: "How do you know that I was thinking about this issue with a notebook? Could it be that your father was able to monitor my movements at that time?"

We still didn't expect that Head Chen would be able to guess Yan Gong's motives at that time, and it turned out to be correct.Head Chen said: "There is no such magic in this world, but your carelessness has given me room to guess. It seems that you are determined to find something related to nuclear materials here. I want to ask If this is the truth, why did you create such a complicated situation?"

Although Duke Yan was flustered for a while, he quickly calmed down and said, "Xiao Chen, although I know you are a very smart person, but I really can't figure out where I made a mistake for you to see the flaw?"

Head Chen said: "It's the piece of kraft paper you sent to Academician Qi. The kraft paper is yours, and the map is also drawn by you. The reason is not very simple. You hope that your students will follow their own way intact. From this point of view, you must have planned it long ago. As for the guess about your motive at that time, it is just a small guess that has nothing to do with the overall situation, and it is purely my own whim, but until Now I still can't figure it out, what made you stay here for so many years? Today should be the day for you to reveal the truth, right?"

Yan Gongdao: "You are indeed right. This is really a mistake I made. When I let you see the notebook, I did ignore a fragment of the notebook in Xiao Qi's hand. But Xiao Chen, you know why I Will you see my notebook?"

Head Chen smiled and said, "Of course I know."

Yan Gong narrowed his eyes and said, "Tell me, let me see how amazing you are."

Leader Chen said: "Your purpose should be to let me see the portrait of the general in front of the notebook, because you may not have expected that the White Feather Knights will leave due to an accident. In case they never leave, you can use this notebook to let me see the general portrait." I know that the mural of the general is very important. As for the tapestry that Gu Renbao gave me, it may be something you have prepared a long time ago. Yan Gong, I am not smart enough, otherwise I should have guessed that you are Gu Renbao's side, and what you want is the old castle guarded by the White Feather Knights."

Lord Yan nodded approvingly and said, "You are so smart. To be honest, Dragon Tomb and Flying General don't mean anything to me. What I really care about is the special materials and hidden features of this castle. Something. In fact, the first time I told you that I was doing research in this area was the truth, but I concealed my purpose, and I did see General Flying Apsaras, and there were Qiu Yin guards deep in the castle, and that White Feather Knights, I have no way to conduct an in-depth investigation."

Leader Chen said: "So you're trying to get rid of the White Feather Knights, trying to get rid of that Qiuyin, and trying to let us lure the Flying General out on the way, isn't that right?"

Yan Gong said: "That's right, the Flying General and the White Feather Knights have posed a huge threat to me, but I let you take away the Flying General's armor. I thought you would all be unlucky, but I didn't expect that he didn't attack you. out of my expectation."

Head Chen said: "Then Gu Renbao and the so-called guards of General Flying Heaven are all nonsense?"

Yan Gongdao: "Of course, General Feitian is an assassin. It is a big joke that an assassin needs someone to take care of him. Gu Renbao, they are actually descendants of the Loulan royal family, but they have been under the White Feather Knights, that is, their brothers. Discrimination, so I really hope that these noble people will be unlucky."

Head Chen said: "What about Riva Dorji, why didn't they have such an idea?"
