Chapter 41: The Gobi
It is also a ridge about 100 meters above sea level, with a total length of about three or four kilometers and a width of no more than a kilometer.
The ridge slopes gently around the ridge until it reaches the end of the view. There was a man-made path in the direction of the lake, and the minibus was far away from there. The view is full of rocks, low and dense, and there are almost no trees more than 2 meters tall.
This is a typical Gobi hilly landform, a sniper's paradise. The low bushes and rocks around provide the perfect cover. In particular, the sniper position is set at the highest point of the ridge, and the range of control reaches the maximum range.
As soon as the sun rose over the horizon, Yang Buxing and Yao Bing had already scattered more than a dozen catties of naan cake among the vegetation thousands of kilometers away and returned to the camp. In such terrain, it is very difficult to obtain food for both humans and animals, so it quickly attracts many birds and finches to peck at them.
"Why are you two going so early? Look at this sweaty man!"
Alice, who had just come out of the tent, was very puzzled when she saw Yang Buxing and Yao Bing sitting and panting.
"If you're not hungry, it's the first time I've come all the way to feed animals in this damn place. ”
Also, I ran around the ridge with a dozen catties of naan and the bucket of fifty catties of water, and I didn't complain that it was fake.
"Don't talk nonsense, I'll pick up Xiaofan's post, where can you go to the tomb to help. Get it done early and go back early, how does this place look so evil. ”
Yang Bu was hungry and went to replace Zhang Xiaofan, who had been in the crack of the stone all night, in order to ensure everyone's safety, there must be one person on alert at all times.
Due to the high latitude and longitude, the days are long and the nights are short, and the temperature has risen to more than 30 degrees Celsius before 5 o'clock. For the old people of Pukins, such sleep is enough. And Ham and Jamie are complaining. Yesterday, they still had a sore back and couldn't help themselves, and now they had to open their eyes again after they had closed their eyes, and the strong sunlight had pierced them.
After yesterday's identification, the stone with the flame pattern was actually the tomb door of the tomb road. If it weren't for the fact that the weather was too dark yesterday to take pictures and collect data, the scientific expedition team would have opened the tomb a long time ago.
"Huh, this pattern is so beautiful, the Fire Emblem is carved like the real thing. Little cookcake, do you think there will be treasure in here?"
Yao Bing paced around with his hands behind his back, and when he was bored, he came to the computer to watch the excitement.
At this point, the screen is broken down with images that are then populated onto the simulated 3D model under Alice's flapping fingers.
"Treasure, crazy for money! If I'm right, it's a Wo grave. It's a small sect, it's so poor that it jingles and there are a few rotten tiles in it for you to pick up.
Get out of here, don't get in the way of my work......"
Alice was angry and kicked Yao Bing away, which was too much work, and she was a little irritable.
"Hah...... Little girl, you don't understand this. Wo Christianity is not a small sect, you must know that before the 7th century, it was a large sect in the two river valleys, and it became the state religion of the Persian Empire for a time.
And the person who can use the Holy Fire Emblem on the door of the tomb should have a great status in this Wo Sect. ”
At this time, Tunazha sat on the side and talked eloquently, as if he was very confident and intoxicated by his profession.
"The Great Sect has status? Then it is really a treasure!"
Yao Bing couldn't listen to the rest, in his eyes, this so-called scientific expedition team was actually no different from tomb robbers, and at this moment he was already thinking about how to start first and get a few valuable things in the future.
After working hard in Bangkok, he was deeply aware of the huge difference between having money in his pocket and not having money. Just when he was itching to plan something, Alice on the side finally closed the computer.
"That's it, the exterior model is ready, and now you can open the door to the tomb*. ”
Hearing that he was finally going to start digging for treasures, Yao Bing immediately picked up the iron pickaxe beside him and volunteered to step forward.
"Professor, just let me do this heavy work. ”
Before Perkins could react, Yao Bing rounded the iron pickaxe and smashed it hard at the stone.
Hush......
A high-pitched, piercing shriek suddenly rang from the depths of the tomb. Then the whole stone began to crack from the place where it had been chiseled by the iron pickaxe, and in a matter of seconds, the large stone slab that had sealed the entire tomb collapsed and was sucked into the tomb*.
Yao Bing had never encountered such a strange thing. At this time, I remembered the tomb robbers I watched when I was bored in the army, and there was a sudden bang in my head, and the hairs on my body exploded and stood up.
"What the hell...... There's a ghost......"
This shout was not much smaller than the scream just now. Yang Buxing, who was a hundred meters away, was originally alarmed, but now when he heard Yao Bing's shout, he immediately leaped down from a few steps above.
"What's going on, where are the ghosts? Where are the ghosts?"
Zhang Xiaofan, who had just lost his eyes, was also awakened, took out his pistol, jumped out of the tent in an instant, hid behind the stones, and prepared to fight back.
And because Yao Bing reacted subconsciously, the words shouted out were the native voice of his hometown, except for Yang Buxing and Zhang Xiaofan, only Sun Siqi, the girl, could understand it.
What are girls most afraid of, except for rats and cockroaches, that's ghosts. I was afraid of digging the graves of the dead, but when I shouted like this, I immediately turned pale and fainted.
"Big bucktooth, what the hell are you doing! What the hell is it called, it scares people out. ”
Fortunately, Alice reacted quickly and helped Sun Siqi, otherwise the stones all over the ground would have to kowtow and bleed.
"Ghosts, ghosts! Didn't you hear the ghosts just now?"
Now the others understood, and saw that Professor Lippi had an elongated face, while the two guys in the back, Hamm and Jamie, covered their mouths and almost laughed.
"Hell, you're big! I don't listen to the mess that usually tells you to watch less mess, get out of ......"
Yang was too hungry to explain, so he took the gun and walked back. And Zhang Xiaofan, who was hiding behind the stones, saw that it was Yao Bing who was making trouble, and he also scolded and helped Sun Siqi back to the tent, and he went to sleep.
"Don't ...... Don't go...... The voice just now was so loud, there's no reason you didn't hear it!"
Yao Bing was still unrelenting, so he was kicked a few times by Alice in the back.
"Pig head, the principle of pressure, heat, expansion and contraction, you don't understand. The temperature of this tomb is low below, and the temperature outside of this Gobi is high, so after the tomb is chiseled open by you, a pressure difference will be formed, and of course the air will suck the pig's head inside!"
After Alice's explanation, Yao Bing suddenly realized, and got up awkwardly to pick up the iron pickaxe that was thrown next to him......
Originally, this was an oolong farce, but the scream that opened the tomb just now caused an unexpected big trouble in the follow-up.
There is an ancient saying in China: If you have nothing to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Palace. A group of foreigners had come to the upper reaches of the Deres for no reason, and as the wise man of the village, Busol had to send someone to find out. But in this great Gobi Mountains, it is easy to say that it is easy to say, but it is also difficult to say. If it weren't for the sudden scream, the two villagers who were sent to search would not have been able to confirm the exact location of Yang Buxing's people so quickly.
Such a semi-Gobi and semi-hilly area is said to be a sniper's paradise, but nature also provides great convenience for those who have the intention of lurking and stealth reconnaissance.
Yang is not hungry and has to take care of 360 degrees alone, of course, there is always something to ignore. Because of this, by luck and coincidence, the two villagers who came to explore successfully approached within 500 meters.
At such a critical distance, the other party can use the telescope to observe every move of the scientific expedition team on the ridge very clearly.
"What are they doing? They're digging something?"
In the binoculars, Yao Bing is holding a pickaxe to clean the stones that have just collapsed into the tomb, while Hamm and Jamie are also passing the stones out one by one.
"Sa'dama's treasure? Oh my God, those people have found the gold that Sa'dadam hid in the first place!
The two men trembled with excitement at this time. You must know that according to rumors, when Saada's mother army was defeated, he ordered the captain of his personal guard to secretly transport nearly 300 tons of gold from Mosul to the upper reaches of the Tigris River and bury it as his capital for his future comeback, but the final result was that he was betrayed and arrested by his subordinates.
A generation of Middle Eastern heroes were dragged out of the sheepfold and hanged on the torture rack, and the whereabouts of the gold were never revealed, and the captain of the guard died in the final resistance.
So since then, there have been a number of rumors circulating around Yrak. Some say that the gold has been completely transported by country M, and some say that the gold has been sunk into the depths of the Tigris River. The most credible thing is that Sadham hid the gold in a cave in the north of Yrak. At this time, the two men decisively believed that this so-called scientific expedition team had actually found a treasure place to dig for gold.
"Quick, let's go back and tell the village chief. Our village is going to have a good life!"
One of the men turned around and was about to go back to the village to report the news, but he didn't notice the bloodthirsty eyes of his companions.
It was also at this time that Yang Buxing suddenly saw the reflection of the lenses in the grass a few hundred meters ahead.
"Someone!"
The sniper rifle in his hand was immediately erected, and soon he found the two people hiding behind him between two large rocks.
"Huh?"
Just as he was about to shoot, when he looked at the face of one of them, he realized that it was still an acquaintance.
That guy was standing beside Busol some time ago, and he was also the one who took it when he gave gifts.
Knowing its origin, Yang put down his finger that pulled the trigger without being hungry. But at this moment, I saw the man grab a stone the size of a basin from his side, and then slammed it on the back of the head of the person in front of him.
Syllable......
The sharp, angular stone chiseled through the head like a sharp cone. The brain-like brain of tofu exploded directly in Yang Buxing's scope like that.
"Nima, what kind of hatred is this, can you use it like this? It's not peaceful......"
At this moment, Yang Buxing has not realized the seriousness of the matter, and the murder scene under his eyes is also regarded as just a personal grudge. And the guy who killed people thought that he didn't know what was going on, and he sneakily carefully withdrew out of sight under Yang Buxing's scope......
