Chapter 553: True Motive

Qin Jun felt that his head was as big as a fight.

Lin Rongsheng brought him all the way from Yanjing to this desolate grassland to blow the cold wind, and talked to him about the deeds of the ancient emperor Genghis Khan.

This made Qin Jun, who has always prided himself as smart, completely confused what the other party wanted him to do?

He used to be a special soldier, and his skills are better than ordinary people, could it be that the other party wants to help him find the tomb of an ancient emperor?

He was just a major officer, and he was not one of those gold-touching captains in the movie.

"Qin Jun, look over there!" Lin Rongsheng stood on a high mountain bag and waved his hand to a mountain col in the distance.

Looking into the distance, if you don't have the intention to observe, it is difficult to find that there is a hidden pit in the location that Lin Rongsheng is referring to. If you listen closely, you can hear the subtle sound of machinery drifting in the wind. It sounded like the kind of lift pulley that clicked.

"What's there. You won't tell me that this is where Genghis Khan's real tomb is, right? Qin Jun's mind suddenly opened up.

Lin Rongsheng coughed lightly twice, frowned, shook his head and said, "No! ”

"Digging a pit, in addition to excavating ancient tombs, is mining minerals. Is there anything else? Qin Jun asked puzzled.

"You're right. It was indeed a tomb, but it was not the tomb of Genghis Khan. It is the tomb of its right-hand man. Lin Rongsheng nodded.

"Hurry?" Qin Jun frowned.

"Yes, that's him. At that time, Genghis Khan's generals were fierce and good at fighting, and the most famous were the four vanguards under him. And Subutai is one of the four pioneers who are famous in the world. This person is brave and good at fighting, not only has personal combat effectiveness, but also has the ability to lead troops to fight. Its conquests stretched from present-day Korea in the east, Poland and Hungary in Europe in the west, and Siberia in Russia in the north. Speaking of those outstanding military generals in ancient times, Lin Rongsheng is like a treasure.

"General Lin took me to the tomb of the ancient famous general Subutai. What exactly do you want me to do? Qin Jun asked straight to the point.

"The excavation of the tomb of the famous general Subutai has always been carried out by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage. Although this is the boundary of the Yanjing Military Region, the Military Region has never been involved in the excavation of cultural relics. However, halfway through the excavation, when archaeologists excavated a three-meter-tall stone statue of Subutai in the catacombs, a very strange thing happened. Lin Rongsheng's tone suddenly sank.

"What's weird?" Qin Jun said confusedly.

"This stone statue is very well preserved. And the shape of the characters is even more lifelike. Although the statue was underground, it was now under martial law, so we won't go in to see it. Xiao Liu, bring the information. Lin Rongsheng beckoned to the guards standing aside.

The guard immediately took out a stack of photos from the briefcase he was holding in his hand and handed them to Qin Jun.

In the photo, it is indeed a stone statue with a realistic shape that Lin Rongsheng said. A general with bared teeth and glaring eyes, galloping across his horse, holding a sharp scimitar in his right hand and his left hand on his chest, making a void grip.

"Originally, the statue was holding something on its left hand. The archaeologists took the object from the statue's hands for further research, and from then on, strange things happened, and the five nationally famous archaeologists who came into contact with the object actually died overnight. And it's strange to die. This incident caused panic for a while, and all the archaeologists did not dare to go down to this tomb again, even to stay nearby. I had no choice but to draw a company of men from the nearest unit and come here for martial law. Lin Rongsheng frowned and said.

"You said those five archaeologists died strangely. What kind of strange method is it? Qin Jun asked.

"I don't know exactly about that. After all, I'm not a doctor, I'm not a biologist, and I can't explain it to you with scientific arguments. All I know is that those people died without warning, and they lost their lives for no reason, without wounds, and not because of some sudden disease. The five bodies have been sent to the local CDC, and many experts from Yenjing have been invited to study them, but no results have come out so far. Lin Rongsheng sighed and shook his head.

"What the hell is that thing that the stone statue is holding on its left hand?"

"A palm-sized metal box." Lin Rongsheng motioned for the guards to pull out another photo with a metal box printed on it.

"Where's the box? Where do you live? Qin Jun asked.

Lin Rongsheng sighed and said, "It has been smuggled out of the country." ”

"Who stole it?"

He is a foreign expert from the Yenching Cultural Relics Bureau. At that time, after that strange thing happened, the metal box was only transported to the Yanjing Cultural Relics Bureau as a piece of foreboding. Who knows, after the things arrived at the Cultural Relics Bureau, the foreign expert actually took advantage of his position to sneak into the warehouse and steal the metal box. Lin Rongsheng turned around and stood with his hands in his hands.

Qin Jun pondered for a moment, squinted his eyes and asked, "General Lin means that you want me to take it back?" ”

Lin Rongsheng nodded and continued: "To tell you the truth, Genghis Khan's true tomb has always been an unsolved mystery. This Subutai is not only Genghis Khan's confidant general, according to wild historical records, Genghis Khan's imperial funeral was handled by the general Subutai. Archaeologists suspect that the metal box held by the stone statue in Subutai may well hide clues to Genghis Khan's tomb.

When Genghis Khan was in power, the territory of China included many countries and regions in Eurasia, so the burial location of Genghis Khan was not necessarily in China. In the unlikely event that another country gets an important clue to the tomb of Genghis Khan and steals the contents of the tomb of Genghis Khan, it will be a very heavy loss for us.

So, I want you to help us recover that thing. Not only for me, but also for the country. After all, Genghis Khan was the emperor of our China. ”

"According to the information you have, where is that metal box now?" Qin Jun asked.

"In the country of Indonesia. The foreign expert who stole the artifacts was actually an American, but after he left the country, he first went to Indonesia, where he wanted to transit back to China. As a result, the Indonesian government even detained people and belongings, insisting that the metal box was Indonesia's belongings, and no one could take them out of their own territory. Lin Rongsheng continued.

"There are even foreign governments involved." Qin Jun frowned.

"Of course. The main thing is that the allure of Genghis Khan's tomb is amazing. As the emperor of the heyday of the Chinese Kingdom in history, Genghis Khan's funeral goods may be able to buy half of Yanjing City. That, I guess, is the real motive of foreign governments. Lin Rongsheng said with deep eyes.
