Chapter 209: The Legend of Immortality
The four of them gasped, the box had obviously been moved, but they didn't notice it in the slightest, the manuscript paper was folded very neatly and placed in the middle of the box. It can be seen that the person who stole the diamond ring did not have a trace of panic.
Open the manuscript paper, on which are written neat traditional Chinese characters: Lone thank you very much for finding this ring for me, if there is no Er, Lone can not find its whereabouts, in order to express gratitude, Lone today put with Er, if there is a fate to see you in the future, it must be the time of death. The name of the inscription is: Mr. Ichimoku Go.
Wang Sheng raised his fist and slammed it into the cold ground.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Hao curiously snatched the manuscript paper, looked at it at a glance, tore the manuscript paper to shreds, stood in front of the window and scolded.
All this was really guessed by Wang Sheng, their mission this time was indeed related to Mr. Ichimoku Go, but they were too light on the enemy, and Mr. Ichimoku fled under their noses.
Leng Ai closed her eyes and observed, but as you can imagine, she didn't find anything. Although the diamond ring was gone, Wang Sheng and the others buried the box containing the cloak in the deep pit, and after doing all this, the four of them packed up their belongings and left the island of Poville.
Back on Wasteland Island, the three men became lazy again, and went straight to the restaurant to eat and drink, only Leng Ai himself, looking for Uchida Jisihai and the Nesarar tribe in the bookstore, Wang Sheng was full of wine and food, and came to the bookstore, Leng Ai was still buried in the pile of books to look for it, Wang Sheng picked up a book casually, turned two pages casually, he couldn't even read a word, and sat next to Leng Ai boredly, thinking nonsense in his head.
More than an hour passed, and Leng Ai finally found the information of the Nesarar tribe. Turkmenistan is the ancient Nesarar tribe.
Before the first millennium BC, a class society emerged on the territory of Turkmenistan. After the sixth century B.C., it was continuously invaded and ruled by foreign peoples. Turkmenistan has historically been conquered by Persians, Macedonians, Turks, Arabs, and Mongols.
In the 16th century, the Turkmen people were divided into many tribes, among which the Nesarar was the core tribe, and with the increase and development of the population, the Nesarar was the cornerstone of the formation of the modern Turkmen nation. At the beginning of the seventeenth century, many of the Nesarar tribes, who originally lived in northern Turkmenistan, began a large-scale migration to the south. It also caused a series of regime changes in Central Asia. By the 19th century, all Turkmen tribes were largely settled. The Nesalar gradually merged with the local indigenous tribes, on the basis of which the Turkmen majority was formed.
In 1917, Soviet power was established, and in 1924, after the demarcation of ethnic administrative areas, the Turkmen Soviet Socialist Republic was established and joined the Soviet Union.
The Gates of Hell are located in the Karakum Desert of Turkmenistan, and according to the book, in 1974, geologists came here to drill for natural gas, and unexpectedly discovered this huge underground cavern, which is so large and deep that it cannot be measured, because the cave is full of poisonous gas, which may burn and explode at any time, and it is also possible that the poisonous gas will overflow. For safety reasons, the researchers set it on fire so that the toxic gas would not leak out, and since then, the cave has been burning incessantly, and it has been burning ever since.
The Karakum Desert is a large desert in Central Asia, meaning black desert in Turkic language, and is the fourth largest desert in the world. The Gates of Hell are located in the village of Deveze in the Karakum Desert, and there are about 350 inhabitants in the village.
Leng Ai also found some more valuable clues, in Egyptian mythology, it is recorded that there is an immortal bird from hell, the immortal bird has the head of an eagle, a human body, and its whole body is covered with black feathers, and the image of the immortal bird is very similar to that of an owl. The lifespan of the undead is six hundred and thirty years, and whenever the undead bird knows that it is close to death, it builds a nest with fragrant branches and then burns it in flames. When it is about to burn out, a newborn immortal bird will fly out of the flames.
In 1348 AD, the Black Death broke out, countless patients were taken to the island of Boville to be burned, if the owl people were also burned to death at that time, it has been 628 years now, if according to the life span of the immortal birds, they only have two years of life, Wang Sheng was surprised, their task is to save the owl people, is the owl people the immortal birds in Egyptian legends?
Leng Ai said: "This is not the most important thing, in the West, the energy of the mage will be concentrated in the ring, that is to say, the higher the mana, the greater the mana of his ring, that is to say, the magister who can trap the owl man, the power in his ring is extraordinary, and now the ring has fallen into the hands of Mr. Ichimoku Go." ”
Wang Sheng frowned, Mr. Ichimoku returned to the world with a malaria ghost, and mankind will face a catastrophe, and now Mr. Ichimoku has obtained the mage's ring, and the consequences are unimaginable.
Zhang Sheng, the only one who could help them, had died, and the cult members arrested by the central government had also died mysteriously, and now only Zhang Sheng's apprentices could help them. Thinking of this, Wang Sheng hurriedly stood up: "We must hurry up now and send the owl back to hell as soon as possible." ”
Leng Ai spread out the map and said, "How to hurry up?" It takes 10 countries to get from Italy to Turkmenistan, and even if we do get to Turkmenistan, we may not be safe. ”
Sino-Soviet relations in 1976 were at a moment of high tension, and the Soviet Union straddled the two continents of Europe and Asia, and could not go to Turkmenistan from any direction, at least passing through more than two Soviet Union States.
Wang Sheng looked at the map for a long time and said: If we are discovered, it will inevitably cause a war between China and the Soviet Union. We started in the Mediterranean, via Turkey and Iran, and then to Turkmenistan. ”
After studying the driving route, the four of them drove non-stop to Turkey, and a week later, at midnight, Wang Sheng and the four of them arrived in the Karakum Desert in Turkmenistan.
When the four of them saw the gate of hell, their worldview was completely subverted, not so much the gate of hell as a huge fire pit, and standing near the fire pit, they could feel the heat of the sand on the ground.
The bald head touched his head suspiciously: "Are we looking for a mistake, this is the gate of hell?" ”
Leng Ai looked at the fire in the pit, and the expression on her face was solemn: "That mage is the gate of hell that was opened four hundred years ago, and this place was lit in 1974, and it burned for three years, I'm afraid things won't be easy." ”
Cheng Hao grabbed a handful of hot sand and threw it into the pit, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid these birdmen are going to become roast chickens!" ”
Wang Sheng smiled bitterly: "Roast chicken, roast chicken, it's already come to this point, what can I do?" ”
Leng Ai also showed a helpless smile: "What should I do, let's solve the army that came with me first, there are more than a hundred people!" ”
Cheng Hao took out his gun and scolded: "These bastards, they've been with us all the way, why aren't they over?" ”
Wang Sheng asked, "What are you going to do?" I want to kill a few more! ”
Cheng Hao scolded angrily: "Isn't this the gate of hell!" Lao Tzu sent them directly to hell! ”
Leng Ai closed his eyes to observe the movements of the Soviet army, and suddenly shouted: "It's not good, the owl man has appeared?" ”
Wang Sheng sighed in his heart, isn't the owl on the island of Boville? How did it suddenly appear here? Leng Ai hurriedly opened the backpack, the mage's necklace was gone, their backpack had an encryption function, and others could not see or take out the items inside, but none of them had touched the necklace, and the necklace was actually missing.
Wang Sheng frowned: "Could it be that you forgot to come to the island in Poveli?" ”
Leng Ai was very sure that she had checked her backpack before leaving, and on the way to Turkmenistan, she also saw the necklace in her backpack.
Wang Sheng said: "I can't care about this now, the owls have come, and the gate of hell is here, just send them all back to hell!" ”
Cheng Hao asked, "What about those Soviet troops?" ”
"To give others a way to live, is to give yourself a way to live, if you want to benefit yourself, first benefit people, if you kill them, we can't get any benefits, if you hurt them, the owl people are coming, we are suffering from the enemy, it is better to cooperate with them, although their strength is limited, but at least they can help us!"
Leng Ai said: "The Soviet army is marching very fast, it should be less than ten minutes or so to get here, when we see them we surrender, they should not use force, as long as the owl people arrive, we can cooperate with them!" ”
As Leng Ai said, in less than ten minutes, the Soviet army surrounded Wang Sheng and the four of them in a fan shape. The four of them raised their hands and stood motionless.
The Turkmenistan leader asked: "Chinese?" ”
Leng Ai asked, "You are the Supreme Commander?" ”
The Soviet officer glanced Leng Ai up and down, and ordered the people behind him: "Take these four people away!" ”
"Wait!" Leng Ai shouted, "I want to talk to you!" ”
The Soviet officer smiled arrogantly: "You have no ability to resist anymore, what are you talking to me about." Then he shouted to the people around him: "Take it away!" ”
"Wait!"
Leng Ai's words didn't have any effect, several Soviet soldiers strode towards the four of them, and Leng Ai hurriedly shouted: "Bald head to level them!" ”
As soon as Leng Ai's words fell, several soldiers all fell to the ground, the sky was very dark, and the speed of bald heads was too fast, and the Soviet soldiers did not see what was happening, only saw their comrades fall to the ground, although they did not die, but obviously lost their combat ability.
"Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who we are, but there will be a catastrophe here, and we are here to save the people here!"
"Disaster? What disaster? ”
Leng Yi smiled: "Do you believe in demons?" ”
"Myths confuse the public!"
Leng Ai guessed that the Soviet officer would not believe it, all this was already expected by her, Leng Ai smiled: "Within fifteen minutes, you will understand!" If there are no monsters, we'll be caught! ”
The Soviet officer looked at the unconscious soldier and muttered in his heart: If you really want to use force to arrest the four people in front of you, it is not easy, although the words of the girl in front of her are not credible, but she is quite friendly, fifteen minutes is not a long time, it is better to see what will happen. Thinking of this, the Soviet officer said: "I will believe you once, but you have injured my soldiers, and you must have an explanation!" ”
Leng Yi smiled: "Don't worry, they're fine, they just fainted!" You ordered your soldiers to be ready for battle, but, without my orders, no shots, understand? ”
The Soviet officer snorted coldly: "Let's wait for the demon to appear!" ”
Fifteen minutes passed quickly, the sun set in the sky, the desert was illuminated red by the fire of the gate of hell, and the atmosphere was very strange, but the owl man did not appear, Wang Sheng also muttered in his heart, and whispered in Leng Ai's ear: "Why didn't the owl come!" ”
Leng Ai smiled calmly: "Don't worry, they're already here!" ”
The Soviet officer looked at his pocket watch, a smile of victory appeared on his face, and just as he was about to give the order to arrest Wang Sheng's four people, the flames of the Gate of Hell erupted from the hole more than ten meters high, burning extremely violently, almost illuminating the entire Karakum Desert.
Wang Sheng and the four of them were about two meters away from the gate of hell, and the temperature of the flames was so high that they had to run away at a very fast speed, although their clothes had the function of resisting the temperature, they were still roasted by the huge flames, and even almost lost their lives for it.
There were some Soviet soldiers who had not yet reacted, and they were roasted into three ripe in an instant, although they temporarily saved their lives, but it was too late to be rescued, and death was a matter of time. If Wang Sheng and the four of them didn't have capsules that could be treated, I'm afraid they would have the same fate as these soldiers.
Five owls hovered above Wang Sheng's four people, the Soviet officer's face turned pale, and he hurriedly ordered to shoot, Leng Ai shouted loudly: "No one is allowed to shoot without my order!" ”
