Chapter 060: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas

Late at night, Liu Xing hid outside the archaeological research room, secretly listening to the secret seminar of the expert group.

Glancing through the crack in the door, he found that there were more than 40 people in the expert group, in addition to Wang Tairan, Professor Juan, Dr. Zhao Cong and others, there were also some unfamiliar faces, several of whom were well-known professors from the Yufeng Novel Academy.

To Liu Xing's surprise, Director Wu Guokun of Jianshu Building and Director of the Tianhai City Public Security Bureau also came.

In the past month, the expert group has screened 38 "Book Tomb Notes" page sorting schemes, and has excluded 33 of them, leaving only 5.

Therefore, the expert group believes that there may be five places where the second book tomb is buried, namely: Huashan in Huadu, Yuxiang Town in Ningzhou City, Doyasig Desert in Xifeng City, Guanyue Mountain in Pingyang City, and Novel Street in Tianhai City.

Today, the expert group is ready to discuss five possibilities to further determine where the tomb is buried.

"I think Huashan in Huadu has the highest possibility. Director Wu Guokun said, "The terrain of Huashan is changeable, the vegetation is lush, and the burial book tomb is the most difficult to find." ”

"When it comes to the varied terrain, the Moon Mountains in Binh Duong City are more complex and difficult to find," Professor Juan said. ”

"I think the most overlooked places are the most likely places. Dr. Zhao Cong expressed his opinion, "From ancient times to the present, very few book tombs have been buried in the desert, so it is very likely that the second book tomb will be buried in the Doyasig Desert in Xifeng City. ”

After a moment of silence, Wang Tairan spoke: "I think the possibility of Tianhai City Novel Street is also very large, I have carefully read the plot of the 38th edition of "Book Tomb Notes", the plot is very smooth, almost impeccable. ”

Director Wu Guokun has a different opinion: "Elder Wang, the possibility of novel street should be the smallest. Novel Street used to be a Grand Canal, and there was a highway next to it, so how could there be a place to bury a book tomb? Could it be that it is buried at the bottom of the Grand Canal?"

Wang Tairan reminded: "It's not impossible. The book tomb of Yufeng Mountain is buried at the bottom of the lake. ”

The expert group expressed their opinions and expressed their opinions, but due to limited information, it was difficult to unify their opinions.

As for the burial site of the book tomb, more than forty experts were divided into five camps, and each of the five locations had corresponding supporters.

After several hours of discussion, none of the experts could convince each other.

"From the current discussion, it is possible that a second book tomb will be buried at all five sites. Director Wu Guokun proposed, "In that case, why don't we start a 'book hunting plan' and find five locations together?"

The experts exchanged views, and most of them agreed.

"The total area of the five sites combined, more than 10 square kilometers, is a very large amount of work. If the book search plan is to be implemented, I am afraid that it will need to rely on the power of the people. I think we can consider setting up a book hunting team, allowing people to sign up voluntarily, and it will be managed by the Reading Alliance. ”

Professor Juan agreed: "Mr. Wang's idea is good, and the book team is a more suitable plan. Each team is equipped with professional archaeologists and coffin detectors. If the book hunting team can find the book tomb, the reading alliance can give a high reward of 20 million yuan to stimulate the public's enthusiasm for book hunting. ”

The experts continued to discuss, and Liu Xing at the door listened for a while and roughly understood.

After a month of research, the group of experts could not determine the exact location of the second book tomb, but narrowed the scope to five locations, including Novel Street in Tianhai City.

The total area of these five sites is still very large, and the experts decided to set up a special book search team to conduct a carpet search.

Liu Xing now knew that the book tomb was within the confines of Novel Street, and he was not interested in the other four locations, nor was he interested in the book team.

The only thing he was interested in was the professional coffin detector equipped by the book search team. If you can get a detector, then the search for the coffin will be a matter of course.

"How do I get a coffin detector?"

Liu Xing was thinking about it, and at this time, a coffin detector appeared in the research room.

I saw Dr. Zhao Cong take out a black instrument from a safe, which was in the shape of a wooden stick, like a large flashlight, about one meter long.

"Dr. Zhao, is this black stick a coffin detector?" Wu Guokun frowned slightly, and looked at the long black stick in front of him with a strange gaze.

"Yes, its name is 'Ultramagnetic Micro-Nano Probe Stick', or 'Book Coffin Probe Stick' for short. ”

Dr. Zhao Cong put the black stick on the table and introduced, "In the past six months, we have repeatedly tested the material of the Yufeng Mountain book coffin and found a strange phenomenon, the material of the book coffin can absorb ultra-magnetic micro-nano wireless waves. Based on this characteristic of the coffin, we have developed this 'ultra-magnetic micro-nano probe stick'. It can radiate ultra-magnetic micro-nano wireless waves to the ground, and if there is a coffin underground, this wireless wave will be absorbed, and then the information will be fed back to the ground, and we will be able to know if there is a coffin underground. ”

The experts suddenly realized, and Professor Juan suddenly became interested, and said: "With this probe stick, wouldn't it be easy to find the coffin, as long as you take the probe stick and measure it on the ground, can you have a buried coffin underground?"

Dr. Zhao Cong nodded: "However, this kind of coffin probe stick has a very high technical content, and the production cost is about 2 million, and only one has been made in total." ”

"One?" Professor Juan's eyes rounded, "What's the use of having one, we need at least 1,000 of them if we have 10 square kilometers of area!"

Dr. Zhao Cong explained: "If you want to mass produce, you can do it, as long as you have enough money. The cost price of one is 2 million, and 1,000 is 2 billion. As long as you have money, you can put it into production immediately, and you can get the finished product within three months. ”

"2 billion?"

The experts were stunned for a while, this is not a small amount.

If you really want to mass-produce the coffin probe sticks, you need to raise a huge amount of money first, and then wait for a three-month production period, which means that the Taoshu project will need to wait at least another three months.

Hearing this, Liu Xing at the door was quite excited, if he could get a super magnetic micro-nano detection stick, he could detect the location of the coffin in the novel street, which was like a tiger with wings.

Just as Liu Xing had the idea of the detector stick in the coffin, Dr. Zhao Cong had already put the detector stick back in the safe and sealed it up.

"The probe stick is in the safe, how can I get my hands on it?"

Liu Xing began to think in his heart, this question seemed to be a little tricky.

At about 12 o'clock in the evening, the workshop of the expert group came to an end, everyone left, and the archaeological institute suddenly fell silent.

However, Liu Xing did not leave, he was still hiding in the corner of the corridor, thinking about how to get the coffin detector stick. At this point, the probe stick is placed in Research Room 1 on the third floor.

Rustle!

After a while, there was a sudden sound of slight footsteps in the hallway, as if someone was approaching this direction.

Liu Xing in the corner was shocked: It's so late, why are there still people?

After a while, a sneaky black figure appeared in the corridor on the third floor, tiptoeing to the door of Research Room 1.

When he saw this black figure, Liu Xing felt that the other party was a little familiar, so he took a closer look......

"Tian Xiaoyi?"

Liu Xing finally remembered that this black figure was the thief who stole the book coffin before!

A month later, Tian Xiaoyi actually appeared in the Institute of Archaeology for the second time!

Is he here to steal again?

While Liu Xing was thinking, Tian Xiaoyi had already taken out a professional spending toolbox and fiddled with the security door in the research room, and after a while, with a click, the security door was cracked again, and the whole process took less than three minutes.

Immediately afterwards, Tian Xiaoyi pushed the door and quietly walked into the research room.

Out of curiosity, Liu Xing's figure flashed, and with light steps, he swept to the door, glanced indoors, and found that Tian Xiaoyi was actually opening the safe!

The coffin detector stick is hidden in the safe.

"Tian Xiaoyi is here to steal the coffin detector stick?"

Liu Xing frowned slightly, this probe stick is confidential, even Professor Juan and the others only heard about it today, why did this Tian Xiaoyi come to steal the probe stick so quickly? Who revealed the information to him?

After thinking for a while, Liu Xing immediately realized a problem - there should be a mole in the expert group!

This probe stick is only known to the expert group, and Tian Xiaoyi's source of information can only be a member of the expert group.

"Which expert is the mole?"

Liu Xinggang finished thinking about it, and at this time, he only heard a crisp sound, and Tian Xiaoyi actually successfully cracked the password of the safe and took out the black coffin detection stick from it.

After that, Tian Xiaoyi hurriedly left the research room and went downstairs along the corridor.

"Suzu-"

Suddenly, a rapid alarm sounded at the archaeological research institute, and then the policeman in front of the square was heard shouting, "Like a thief...... Who, stop!"

There was a chaotic chase.

It turned out that Tian Xiaoyi inadvertently triggered the alarm system, and the police immediately chased him out.

It's a pity that Tian Xiaoyi was prepared, and after escaping from the Institute of Archaeology, a motorcycle immediately answered, and before the police could catch up, he had already left in a hurry on a motorcycle.

……

At night, along a mountain road, the motorcycle travels at a speed of 50 kilometers per hour.

"Brother Tian, tonight is really dangerous, I was almost caught by the police. The fat man who drove said with palpitations.

Tian Xiaoyi looked at the detector stick of the coffin he had just stolen, and said, "Now that the police are investigating strictly, we have to rest for a while." ”

The fat man smiled and said, "Anyway, we have made enough money." Tonight, after the coffin detector stick arrived, another 1 million was credited to the account......"

As soon as he was halfway through, the fat man's face suddenly changed, and he braked sharply, and then stopped the motorcycle.

Because in the middle of the mountain road ahead, there was a black figure standing, wrapped in black cloth, and it was completely impossible to see the appearance.

"Black ...... Shadow Man!?"

Seeing this black figure, the fat man and Tian Xiaoyi were shocked, the last time they stole the book coffin, they had encountered it once.

Tian Xiaoyi's breathing suddenly became rapid, and a chill appeared in his back, he had never been so nervous when stealing things. The dark shadow man in front of him was elusive, erratic, and looked extremely strange, making him shudder.

"This black ...... Brother Dark Shadow, are you okay......"

Before Tian Xiaoyi finished speaking, the black figure flashed, like a whirlwind, swept in, only to see him finger a little, accompanied by two screams, Tian Xiaoyi and the fat man passed out at the same time, lying on the side of the motorcycle.

Bang Dang!

The black coffin probe fell to the ground.

Walking over, Liu Xing picked up the probe stick, held it in his hand, looked at it carefully, and touched it again.

After making sure that there was no problem, he put away the probe stick of the coffin, Liu Xing moved under his feet, and with strange steps, he turned into a black shadow and hurriedly left, and after a short time, he disappeared into the vast night......

……

A few hours later, Tian Xiaoyi and the fat man finally woke up.

"Where's my stick?" Tian Xiaoyi touched his whole body, but he didn't find his black stick.

"Brother Tian, I'm afraid the probe stick has been taken away by the Black Shadow Man again. The fat man was full of doubts, "What is the origin of this black shadow man, and why does he steal our things?"

Tian Xiaoyi frowned, always feeling that he seemed to be messing with someone he couldn't mess with......
