Chapter 183: Hu Songquan who was deceived
There is no profit and selfishness, Hu Songquan can't do things for Jiao Yaohou in vain, the other party must have promised a generous reward, so Hu Songquan recruited the staff in the museum and asked them to help him apply for an archaeological permit.
But now that Jiao Yaohou is nowhere to be found, and there is no way to find the dragon grunt, if you want to know what happened specifically, you still have to work Hu Songquan and let him take the initiative to say it himself.
"Don't mention the dragon vine, I'm annoyed when I mention it. Earlier you said that this dragon vine can sense other dragon vines in the desert tomb, which is indeed the case, sensed it, and led us to find an ancient tomb. ”
Hu Songquan said with a complaining face, as if the current appearance was all caused by the dragon vine.
"What happened to the dragon vine?"
"Yesterday, the day before yesterday, our group, according to the direction of the dragon vine, came here. Lao Jiao, that Jiao Yaohou, pointed to a place and began to let us dig, and after digging for a while, he let his men blow up the ancient tomb. But Lao Jiao seemed to know which was the main tomb and which was the side tomb, so we tied up the dragon vine, left the other personnel of the museum, and went to the main tomb. ”
Hu Songquan said, entering this desert tomb, he suddenly felt strange to the person in front of him who had known him for many years.
"At first, the dragon vines you gave us were not very large, about half a meter high, but before they reached the main room, this ancient plant seemed to be infused with water, and quickly expanded and thickened, becoming the same as in the basement.
"Last night, when Lao Jiao was about to blow open the door of the main tomb, the door opened a crack from the inside, and a few tentacles stretched out. We were afraid of it attacking, but we didn't stop it, and after everyone pushed open the door of the main burial chamber, we saw two dragon vines entwined together, and they became one.
Together, the two doubled in form, and sixteen tentacles scrambled around, collapsing the main burial chamber at once. And this main tomb seems to be equipped with some kind of mechanism, causing a chain reaction, and the entire ancient tomb collapses.
"By the time we reacted, there were people around us who had been hit by rocks, some were buried in sand, and there was no longer Lao Jiao's figure. The rest of us found the museum before the ruins were all buried by the sand, and together we found an exit and crawled out.
"Not long after I climbed out, all the ground around me collapsed, and all the materials I had brought with me were buried. All of a sudden, there were no supplies, the personnel were scattered again, and they didn't dare to walk around. After being trapped here for a day, with no drinking water or food, everyone fainted. ”
Hu Songquan roughly finished the whole process, and his heart was very unhappy.
Confidently entered the desert, I didn't expect this kind of result, and I had to get legal sanctions, if I had thought that this was the case, I wouldn't have listened to Lao Jiao's rhetoric into this desert.
"Little brother Zhuo Feng, what should I do now?" Yuan Tao pointed to these people sitting on the sand, they had all come lightly before they came, and only when they returned to the camp could they distribute food to everyone.
"It's impossible to dig up supplies from the underground rubble right now. Let's go back to camp first, it's almost twelve o'clock, it's not early. If you're looking for some information, why don't you come back tomorrow?"
Chen Xiaoyan took La Zhuofeng's hand and said.
Zhuo Feng looked up at the stars, and then irradiated the surroundings with a flashlight, everyone was tired, and the materials in front of them were not enough to distribute, and if they continued to consume like this here, they couldn't find information, they couldn't find clues, and they didn't say anything, but it didn't do any good.
"Okay. Let's go back first. If there is anything, we will discuss it tomorrow and then decide. Zhuo Feng nodded.
When you come, you have to look carefully, and when you return, you will be quick without worries. When she returned to the camp, Hu Xinyi had already fallen asleep, and Liu Sheng and Hanwa were chatting there, patrolling, and guarding against snakes, rats, and poisonous insects.
Busy asking Hanwa and Liu Sheng to distribute the drinking water they brought to everyone, the two shared a bottle, and each person had a box of instant meals.
"You go and rest first, it's not early, the girl won't look good the next day if she stays up late." Zhuo Feng said to Chen Xiaoyan.
"Okay. You wait and discuss how to take the next step tomorrow, it's not too late, and you have to pay attention to your body. After Chen Xiaoyan finished speaking, she simply scrubbed it and went back to the tent and got into the sleeping bag.
After the group of people who were brought back had eaten something, Zhuo Feng gathered everyone over.
"We have limited equipment, so we'll see if there are any dead trees and branches nearby, pick some up, make a fire, and everyone will sit around and rest. ”
So they went their separate ways, gathered some dry wood, and came back, and handed over the fire.
Zhuo Feng turned his head and said to the group of people in the museum: "Hu Songquan will be handed over to you, and tomorrow I will distribute some supplies to you, and you will return to Nanhe City." ”
To the group of people brought by Jiao Yaohou: "Here is the information of the four dead people you came with, you can bring it back tomorrow and hand it over to their relevant relatives, so that they can come and recover the remains." Then some supplies will be distributed to you as well. But later, relevant agencies will come to you to investigate, and your leader Jiao Yaohou is very likely to be suspected of stealing and digging ancient tombs, so don't work hard for him when you go back. Yesterday's events, as you have seen, are hard to get and life-threatening. ”
As he spoke, he asked Yuan Tao to hand over the things of the four dead people he had collected to one of the leaders.
"Then what should we do?" Seeing that Zhuo Feng had arranged two groups of people, Yuan Tao and He Changjun asked.
"Tomorrow when they leave, check what we have left, depending on the situation. Still, I wanted to go and see it again, and I had a knot in my heart. Zhuo Feng lowered his head, thinking about the knot in his heart.
"Can you tell me?" Yuan Tao was very curious.
There are too many bright spots in this posterity.
It's also too amazing, and many things can't be answered with my 20 years of experience in this desert.
"We'll talk about it tomorrow. I am tired. Let's go rest first. You arrange for the people who are resting outside here to be on duty. ”
Zhuo Feng made an excuse and left the fire.
This knot in my heart is not big, but it is not small. You have to go there again to draw conclusions, and it doesn't make much sense to say it right now.
"You two should also rest early, and be careful not to sleep too much. ”
Walking to Liu Sheng and Hanwa, Zhuo Feng whispered.
At the moment, they don't bring a lot of supplies, and if someone here has a crooked mind, the consequences will be serious.
Whether you go or stay tomorrow depends entirely on the amount of this pile.
The night was very deep, occasionally there were a few chirping of insects and beasts, the main branches in the fire had burned out, the charcoal fire inside was blown by the wind and flashed, the surrounding crowd, some lying sideways, some lying on their sides, some leaning on their backs, even the person on duty was half-sitting, squinting.
At this time, in the corner where the materials were stacked, a dark shadow flashed, touching in this backpack from time to time, that backpack touched, tossed for a while, returned in vain, joined the crowd and continued to sleep......
After dawn, Liu Sheng and Hanwa checked the supplies, but fortunately there was nothing missing, and according to Zhuo Feng's arrangement, all the remaining drinking water and food were divided into three piles.
After sending the two people away, Zhuo Feng counted the number of people and the remaining pile of supplies.
"Now I go to the place last night to re-check, and the more people are going, the more water and food are needed. In this way, Liu Sheng and I went down and returned. You pack your bags and head to where your vehicle is parked, where you still have a few supplies. How?"
Zhuo Feng looked at everyone.
"I'll go with you, Brother He seems to be a person who often walks the desert, and he can lead the two beauties back to the parking place of the vehicle. Plus I'm a little curious about what happened last night, so count me in. I can carry an extra bag and go back and forth. ”
Yuan Tao carried a very heavy bag on his back, turned left and right, and showed it to everyone, indicating that he was physically strong and completely okay.
"Okay. Let's go and see, and then we turn back. Zhuo Feng also carried a big bag on his back and walked towards the place last night.
After everyone split into two ways, Zhuo Feng and the others soon came to the place where they found Hu Songquan falling to the ground last night.
The traces of everyone's trampling last night are all gone today, and they were taken away by the wind and sand, and Zhuo Feng also felt that it was in this area by his own intuition.
While pulling out a tent iron bracket and piercing in the sand, he opened his consciousness to scan the hidden essence in this desert.
In my consciousness, this desert is a gray and hazy patch, with a rolling heat wave, and occasionally a small spirit appears, which is a small insect hiding in the sand.
After examining this piece for a while, he didn't find anything, and Zhuo Feng walked towards the north.
To the north is a whole tall sand dune that crosses in front of you.
Climb up to the sand dunes and look down, a large area of essence exists.
There is a case!
"Liu Sheng, Brother Yuan, come up. Zhuo Feng shouted loudly.
After Liu Sheng and Yuan Tao also climbed the sand dune, they looked down and saw plant tentacles everywhere, some of which had dried up, some were still wriggling, and some were stretching in all directions.
Could this be all the tentacles of the two dragon vines after they become one?
"Don't come down yet, lest it be dangerous. I'll go over and have a look. Zhuo Feng said.
After getting closer, outside the attack range of the tentacles, Zhuo Feng carefully examined these tentacles through his consciousness.
The essence lingering in these tentacles, some of them are familiar to them, and some of them are the first time they have seen them, and it seems that the dragon vine that they enlightened is really one with the dragon vine in the ancient tomb.
In today's environment, we have seen two creepers grow with the help of tendrils, and sometimes, there are several creepers in the same place, which are not crowded out of each other at all, is it the same with these two dragon vines?
When Zhuo Feng came over, a few tentacles were vigilantly extended.
These tentacles are all on top of the sand, and they are still alert, and the main part of the sand bottom should still be alive.
The two dragon vines were entwined together, and the form had completely changed, in order to prevent accidents, Zhuo Feng still adjusted the essence energy in the palm of his right hand, guarding against it.
As soon as Zhuo Feng was on guard, the few tentacles that had extended over retracted back, and what remained in the sand were some tentacles that could not move.
Zhuo Feng continued to walk towards the place where the tentacles had retracted.
In the process of walking over, there was a tentacle that lingered with the essence that Zhuo Feng had applied and was very familiar. This tentacle is not far from Zhuo Feng, Zhuo Feng took a step, and the tentacle moved an inch.
Zhuo Feng saw that this tentacle did not pose any danger to him, so he didn't take it to heart and continued to walk forward. When he was about to reach the entrance of the cave, this tentacle that haunted the essence he had exerted came out of the bottom of the cave at once, and suddenly moved quickly towards Zhuo Feng's left foot, and after reaching Zhuo Feng's left foot, he wrapped Zhuo Feng's left leg around and dragged it into the cave.
