Chapter 137 Descendants of Frontier People 1
Things in the world are so dramatic. At first, everyone had almost given up on the detection work of Yinlei Lake. Unexpectedly, such a satellite map that can see the whole picture of the lake’s underground came out, which made everyone cool down. enthusiasm was rekindled.And after Dabao's coordination, the army also made an exception and transferred half of the squad, let Xiaobao lead the team, and sent us safely to the area where the cave shown on the map was located, and lived in the home of a local Kazakh fellow.

Our group of people passed through that small snow mountain, and we were all in a state of embarrassment. It also made us who have never been to the snow mountain really taste the bitterness of the harsh climate on the plateau. Damn, it’s just such a 200-meter-high mountain. It took us almost a day to climb the small hill. If it weren't for the help of those soldiers, we might have been left halfway on that small snow mountain.

The Kazakh villager Kerim we stayed in was a single old man in his 60s, hale and hearty, with an adopted son named Yisai by his side, and Xiao Bao said that he could be called Little Kerim.This old Kazakh Kerim was an old militiaman when he was young. He once participated in the battle to liberate the XJ Border Region. He has deep feelings for the PLA and is very happy and welcome to our arrival.The hospitable Uncle Crimea slaughtered a lamb that night and prepared a roast lamb feast for us, which flattered us very much.

When we were having dinner, we asked about the Yinlei Lake and the cave, and the old man was a little surprised and asked in fluent Mandarin: "God, why do you ask about the cave?"

Seeing that the old man looked different, Anji gave everyone a wink, indicating that we should not talk nonsense, and then he gave the old man a rough explanation of the purpose of our coming here, and solemnly explained that we are a group of people. He came here for archaeological research, and Xiaobao hurriedly assured the old man that our group of people inquired about those things only for archaeological research, and they were not bad people, so the old man put down his guard and told us told the truth.

It turned out that the old man was not very clear about Yinlei Lake. The reason why he looked strange was because he heard us ask about the cave.From the mouth of the old man in Crimea, we learned that the cave was not an ordinary cave, but a mass burial cave of ancient frontier people. It has existed in this place for thousands of years. people know.

The old man lit a cigarette we handed him, coughed, and continued to speak to us through the curling smoke: "You must be wondering why I know that place, haha, it is actually very simple to say, because I am The remaining descendants of one of the few ethnic groups in those small border countries. Unfortunately, in my generation, I can no longer remember the titles of those border countries. Now those small countries no longer exist, but The burial cave where many monarchs and subjects of the ancient Republic of China were buried has been preserved to this day. Although no one has buried the dead there for hundreds of years, there are still many burial remains. This cave cemetery is now this area. A sacred place that is feared by local people! Ordinary people can’t get close to that place at all!” When the old man said this, he suddenly asked us strangely, where did we know that place!
Seeing the old man asking this question, Xiaobao told the story of the map without concealing it, and then showed the map to the old man. When the old man saw it, he exclaimed in surprise: "Oh my god, it turned out to be Those people, I know them, those demons, they came to me before, they just took a map like this in their hands, and asked me to take them to the holy place that the real gods don't want to disturb, these bastards, said I want to go on a pilgrimage to the ancestors. My old Crimean was not deceived by them. I rejected them at the time. Hehe, those people all have blue eyes and big noses. , They are tomb robbers from foreign countries who are greedy for the funerary objects in the tombs of our ancestors. They are all sinners who Allah will punish. How could I let those people enter our sacred cemetery!"

The old man's call made us both surprised and delighted. What made us happy was that this old man actually had such a deep connection with the border countries we had been looking for all along, and he also knew some details about that cave. We were shocked. Those who took the map turned out to be a group of foreign tomb robbers who were greedy for this ancient cave. This made us very unexpected. No wonder those people could name the ancient golden country.

Xiaobao looked at the old man and said: "Uncle Krimu, the situation you mentioned is very useful to us. I will report it to the army leaders later. It will be easier now. Knowing what they are here for, we can find a breakthrough." Open the mouths of these people. Thank you, uncle, for telling us such an important thing!"

The old man in Crimea waved his hand boldly and said: "Comrade PLA, what are you talking about? This is what I should do as an old man. Those people are different from you. They came to our place to send our country's treasures to them." Stealing over there, how could I agree, you are doing well, you should arrest all these bastards!"

Angie looked at the old-hearted Kazakh man and said with a smile, "Uncle Kerim, do you think we are bad people?"

The old man looked at Anji, then at Ding Ling, and said with a smile: "What kind of villains are you? The girl looks as beautiful as a fairy in Sun Moon Lake, with such bright eyes, how could she be a bad person, haha!"

An Ji and Ding Ling were blushed by the old Kazakh man's words, which made us all laugh out loud. Professor Sima took out a jade waist pendant produced in Nanyang, and tied it to the old man's belt with a smile. At the meeting, he said it was a gift for the old man, and the old man was so happy that he regarded Professor Sima as his own relatives. He immediately said that his little Kerim would take us to the cave in person tomorrow.

We were very happy to see that the old man in Crimea was willing to take the initiative to lead us to the tomb. Anji took the opportunity to ask about the situation of the ancient cave. The old man gave Angie a very detailed answer, which moved us very much. , this Kazakh old man regards us as his best friends, and he really answers every question. Although the ancient cave involves the affairs of his ancestors, he has no reservations. According to him, we are friends, that is, to enter The true god will not blame the ancient cave, and we are doing scientific research, which is beneficial to people, so we will do our best to help us.

We know a lot about that ancient cave from the old man's mouth, but he can't tell whether it leads to the Yinlei lake. The old man in Crimea said that he had the courage to go in once when he was young. , but he retreated after not walking far, and asked him why, he said that he was a little out of breath when he entered it, and there were gloomy grits inside, and he only retreated after entering less than 100 meters.

The old man said that although the elders told him that it was a burial cave in the ancient border kingdom, he went so deep back then and didn’t see any traces of tombs, even he saw a few stone tablets, and he didn’t know the ancient characters written on it. , but he did recognize a symbol on it, which was the symbol of an ancestor enshrined by his clan for generations. When he saw that symbol, he knew that this was indeed the resting place of his ancestors, so he immediately withdrew.

When Professor Sima heard what the old man said, he asked: "Brother, you said that the air in this ancient cave is stuffy, right? Did you see any traces of artificial excavation?"

The old man froze for a moment, shook his head, and said: "I have lived to such an old age. To be honest, I was very young when I entered that ancient cave, and I really don't remember clearly. There is no light, so how can I see the traces you mentioned, but I remember that the section of the road I entered at that time seemed to be paved with some broken stones. Is this the artificial trace your brother mentioned? ? There is also that ancient cave that extends downwards at a slant, steaming from the outside, and I don’t know where it can lead. People of our older generation say that this cave may lead to another world!”

After hearing what the old man said, Professor Sima remained silent and stopped talking. He just asked the old man to draw for us the symbol representing their ancestors. It was a totem-like thing. Professor Sima looked at it, and probably also If you don't come up with any meaning, just let it go!

I saw that Angie was still pestering the old man with an excited face and continued to ask the bottom line. The old man was really speechless when asked by Anji, so he laughed and said: "You girl, you are so energetic, everything I can say I’ve told you, that’s all I know. If you have any questions, you’d better go to that ancient cave by yourself tomorrow. Aren’t you doing research? I can let my little Yisai lead you in, but don’t Go too deep, after all, it is the place where our ancestors are buried, and it will be unsafe if you go too deep!"

Anji didn't intend to ask the old man any questions at first, but when he heard the old man suddenly say the word unsafe, he asked curiously: "Uncle Kerim, what do you mean when you say it's not safe there?"

The old man chuckled, lit another cigarette, and suddenly said in a low voice, "I'm not scaring you. Although you are a scientist, you should know that kind of place, but it will be haunted!"
