Chapter Twenty-Four: The Sun Tomb Encamped

In the middle of winter, the weather is cold, and this season is not suitable for going to Lop Nur. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoBut because the situation is urgent, and there are troops stationed around that military restricted area, there is no big problem. The plane flew to Urumqi and then transferred from Urumqi. There were a total of 7 people in our group, and Feiying and Wu Di stayed in Urumqi as backup. I, Haiyan, Luo Feng, and Ma Staff Officer, as well as Lao Mao, Viper, Liu Kai, and Zhang Lin, went to Lop Nur together. MSS has set up special incident investigation offices in all provinces, and a local staff member has been selected to show us the way. It's a Xinjiang guy called Adili. Adili is not very old, and it is said that he has a lot of work experience, because there are many mysterious events that have happened in Lop Nur, and most of them have come forward to investigate. So his familiarity with Lop Nur helped us a lot in this operation.

Since it was winter, everyone wore thick clothes. The speed of the car was very slow. We walked along the course of the Peacock River. There were some dry poplar trees on the side of the road. When I saw the poplar tree, I remembered the poplar. When this is over, I will take Haiyan to meet her. I was ready to confess to her about me and Haiyan, and although I felt cruel, I have to say that I had fallen in love with Haiyan.

Since she insisted on accompanying me to Xinjiang desperately, I was unwilling to leave with her for a moment. I used to feel the same way about poplar, but after all, that's in the past. I held Haiyan's hand and saw that she was curious about everything outside the window, and my heart was full of happiness.

In fact, I thought about it, Luo Feng asked Haiyan to accompany me to Lop Nur just to have an extra bargaining chip in my hand, so that I had to listen to his arrangement at a critical time and cooperate with him to investigate the secrets. But no matter what, I don't want to think about it anymore, I want to spend more time with Haiyan.

There were three of us in total, Adili was sitting in the front of our car, and in the back was me and Haiyan and Viper. I also feel very safe with poisonous snakes around, after all, I have seen poisonous snakes in their hands. It's just that in this sea of death, Lop Nur, whether the good skills of poisonous snakes come in handy. Adili told us a lot about Lop Nur and the ancient kingdom of Loulan along the way, and Haiyan held my hand tightly. Although Haiyan is also a member of MSS, she may not really have access to so many core secrets after working in the logistics of the base for a long time.

For example, Adili said about the death of the explorer Yu Chunshun, and there are many doubts about his death, lying naked and supine in the tent, with his right hand raised high and his left leg bent, like a walking posture. The sleeping bag and moisture-proof mat were not opened, and a Tibetan knife was unsheathed at the door of the tent. And when he died, he was facing east, and the whole posture was like a ritual. In addition, after he set off that day, people were not at ease and caught up with him at 30 kilometers, he was in good condition and full of spirits at that time, but after the breakup, he only advanced 2-3 kilometers, and passed away at noon the next day, and there was no wind during the day on the 11th and 12th. On the 32_3 kilometers of the road he walked, there were 4 points where water and food were buried, the first point he did not move, the second point only took a bottle of water, the third point took 2 bottles of water, and the fourth point did not move. Another point, on June 17, 1980, Peng Jiamu disappeared in Lop Nur, and on June 17, 1996, Yu Chunshun's body was found in Lop Nur.

Haiyan took my hand, and her palms were sweaty.

In winter, it gets dark very early. We arrived near the Sun Tomb, and Luo Feng said that he was going to camp here. My heart sank. Because the tomb of the sun is also one of the unsolved mysteries of Lop Nur.

The Sun Cemetery dates back 3,800 years, and the famous "Loulan Beauty" was discovered here. It is called the "Sun Cemetery" because the structure of the tomb looks like a radiant sun embedded in the high ground when viewed from a high vantage point. On the surface of the tomb, there are seven regular rings of poplar tree stumps, from the inside to the outside, the thickness is orderly, the minimum inner circle diameter is about 2 meters, like a round sun, and the person is buried in the center of the "sun"; With the ring as the center, there are seven circles of thick tree stumps arranged in a radial shape, which is orderly and like the sun's rays, which is magnificent. The stumps are all buried vertically deep in the sand, with only the stump heads exposed.

Next to it is a tomb from more than 3,800 years ago, with bizarre tombstones facing the circular square in the middle. Haiyan kept taking pictures with her mobile phone. Zhang Lin was a little worried about this sister, and stood aside frowning. The personalities of the two siblings are completely different, Zhang Lin is steady, Haiyan is lively, Zhang Lin talks little, and being still and moving is a stark contrast. Commander Luo and Staff Officer Ma were talking about something in the tent, and Luo Feng's expression was very solemn. The temperature difference between day and night in Lop Nur is large, and the wind and sand on the ground have a layer of frost, and there is a clicking sound when walking on it.

There used to be abundant water and grass, and herds of cattle and sheep here, but in just a few decades, it dried up and became like this, leaving so many unsolved cases. Haiyan and I were looking at the arrangement of the Sun Cemetery, ready to count how many tombs there were, and why they were arranged in such a peculiar way.

Haiyan said that there should be a certain pattern to this, and she is actually a very smart girl. She is especially sensitive to numbers, which is why she has been able to stay at MSS. It was also she who told me the origin of the name 618, and 0.618 is the golden ratio. Hu Guangyao, the founder of 618, is a physicist himself, and he must have realized something from the number 618. That's why the organization was named 618. The famous "Fibonacci sequence" is closer to the golden section.

She took out a tape measure to measure, and Liu Kai and Zhang Lin were helping her.

The old cat stood far away. At that time, when the backup personnel were determined, I thought I would choose him, but Luo Feng brought him with him, but left the Flying Eagle in Urumqi, which I have never figured out. In particular, I already knew the identity of the old cat, and although he didn't do anything after that day, I was always on guard against him. He has been in MSS for a long time, even if I tell Luo Feng, he may not believe my words, I only have to be careful. I think that from about the very beginning, the founder of 618 played a big game of chess in MSS and put down a lot of chess pieces, and one day these chess pieces will be used for themselves.

It's getting late. It's getting darker, too. Tomorrow we will be in that military restricted area, and this party will be peaceful?
